The Ming Dynasty started with caution

Chapter 462 Huimin Pharmacy

After Yan Chengjin finished speaking, he felt a little uneasy. He could guess what His Majesty was thinking, and Your Majesty could also guess what he was thinking.

It's better to speak out and gain His Majesty's trust.

"Hahaha." Emperor Hongzhi laughed heartily.

Yan Chengjin and Xiao Jing looked at him worriedly, like a mentally ill patient who had been stimulated.

"You are very honest. What I appreciate most is that you don't deceive me. Others treat me as a fool, think I am a fool, and think I can't kill people."

When Emperor Hongzhi said this, his smile slowly faded away, revealing a bitter look.

"I am terrified!"

Xiao Jing and Xie Qian hurriedly bowed, causing the gentry and common people around them to look at them curiously.

Yan Chengjinhun didn't care, he raised his head and looked directly into Emperor Hongzhi's eyes: "Master Zhu agreed?"

"You have a good idea. Huimin Pharmacy is a government office. How can Wang Ji, a common man, be in charge of Huimin Pharmacy?" Emperor Hongzhi said angrily.

"What if Huimin Pharmacy becomes a popular pharmacy?"

Xie Qian's body trembled suddenly, you are becoming more and more bold, turning the court's yamen into your own medicine shop.

The prince didn't even dare to say that.

Xiao Jing glanced at him without revealing any trace. His Majesty should be angry.

It's better to be angry. Yan Chengjin is becoming more and more favored by His Majesty.

Apart from the three ministers in the cabinet, he should be the most favored person by His Majesty, and Yan Chengjin is vaguely trying to catch up with him.

Once a eunuch falls out of favor, he becomes worse than a dog.

"Master Yan, what nonsense are you talking about? Your Majesty, calm down."

Emperor Hongzhi turned a deaf ear and looked at Wang Ji: "Go back to the palace."

Yan Chengjin did not accompany him.

The Ming Dynasty had a vast territory but few people.

What caused this dilemma was not only the imperial tax system but also natural disasters and epidemics.

If Your Majesty does not find ways to retain the existing people, it will be difficult to achieve a prosperous age like the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Huimin Pharmacy will naturally be affiliated with the Liangxiang Chamber of Commerce.

Yan Chengjin ordered people to call Xu Yuan.

An hour later, Xu Yuan saw Yan Chengjin with a confused look on his face.

"The imperial court asked a subordinate to come get the medicine. How should I get it?"

"These are the medicinal materials. I will send ten people to accompany you to Shandong." Yan Chengjin said.

After taking the medicinal materials, the doctor must prepare them.

Not everyone suffers from typhoid fever. It is useless to just transport the typhoid fever away. You also need to have an accompanying doctor.

Hu Dayuan and Shang Zhong went there with ten doctors, while Wang Ji stayed in the capital and continued to compile "Selected Records of Febrile Diseases".

"There is no more medicine, go back."

Wang Busui drove away the gentry and refugees who were lining up.

"I haven't seen it yet, someone will die!"

"Look at the next one, the villain. Why is there no medicine?"

The gentry and refugees were so anxious that they swarmed up and blocked the place.

It is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, so Wang Ji said sadly: "Sir, without medicinal materials, I don't know how many people will die."

The medicine needs to be transported to Shandong.

Not to mention that Liangxiang has no money and opens pharmacies all over the world to purchase medicinal materials.

Even if you buy it, you may not be able to use it. Raw medicinal materials such as polygonum multiflorum, aconite root, and nux vomica are more toxic than cooked ones.

"Let them register first and not see a doctor."

Li Mansion,

Yan Chengjin came to see Li Dongyang, although the identity of his son-in-law would make Li Dongyang very concerned.

But as a colleague, he does not reject it.

The only people who can be moved by your Majesty's feelings and understand him rationally are the cabinet members.

Whether the Huimin Pharmacy in Beijing can be jointly taken over by doctors from Liangxiang depends on Li Dongyang.

Li Dongyang looked at him warily: "Qing'e is not here, why are you here?"

"The lower official wants a doctor from Liangxiang to join Huimin Pharmacy."

Fengtian Temple,

Emperor Hongzhi returned to the palace, still thinking about Yan Chengjin's advice: "Yan Chengjin didn't return to the capital, so why did he stay in Liangxiang?"

Xiao Jing was overjoyed and took care of everything: "Yan Chengjin allocated thirty stones of medicinal materials and sent ten doctors to Shandong."

Yan Chengjin, on the other hand, gave orders and prohibited them. I cared about the people of the three places in Shandong, so he took action immediately.

But let me leave the medicinal materials from Huimin Pharmacy to the vendors.

Thinking of this, Emperor Hongzhi frowned.

Not long after, the three elders and seven ministers of the cabinet were summoned.

The seven people stood on both sides, knowing in their hearts that His Majesty was troubled by something, but they were all waiting for Emperor Hongzhi to speak.

"I want to clean up the hospital."

Li Dongyang and the others looked at each other, but said nothing.

Ma Wensheng took the lead and said: "Shi Qin has been taken to the prison of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. His Majesty will appoint an envoy to the court again."

In the case of Shi Qin, there are also Yang Qin and Li Qin, who treat the symptoms but not the root cause.

There are hundreds of people queuing up at a drug store in Liangxiang District. Huimin Pharmacy is clearly a good government company, but it is not favored by the people.

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but wonder, am I a virtuous king?

"Master Xie came out of the palace with me, let Master Xie do the talking."

Xie Qian took a step forward: "I believe that although it is urgent to establish a new envoy, it may not win the hearts of the people.

If the people cannot feel the good governance of the court, they will not be grateful to the court and will not support His Majesty, which is not conducive to appeasing the people.

Someone is needed to promote the good governance of the imperial court throughout the world. Only in this way can we kill two birds with one stone. "

He spoke into the heart of Emperor Hongzhi.

The Huimin Pharmacy seems to be beneficial to the people, but for the rulers, it is just to appease the poor people. They must cherish the favor of the court and not rebel.

"Yan Chengjin gave me some advice, but I can't agree."

Li Dongyang glanced around and saw that there was no one to comment, so he took something out of his sleeve.

No wonder Master Li's sleeves were bulging when he came in just now. Emperor Hongzhi asked: "Master Li, what is this?"

"Registration list."

"Registration list?"

Emperor Hongzhi and the seven ministers were surprised to see a series of names written in an orderly manner on the list.

Li Dongyang smiled bitterly: "To be honest with your majesty, Yan Chengjin came to me and presented this registration list. Although there are good prescriptions, there are no medicinal materials."

"Didn't Liangxiang empty the raw material warehouse?"

"The medicinal materials have been transported to three places in Shandong."

The Huimin Pharmacy in many places in Northern Zhili still has medicinal materials, but they need the imperial court's order.

Li Dongyang continued: "I think that the Imperial Hospital can supervise it, but the recruitment of doctors, setting drug prices and purchasing medicinal materials can be handed over to the doctors in Liangxiang for their own disposal."

...

Yan Chengjin was on duty in the Censorate. Li Dongyang couldn't bear to see more than a thousand refugees die of illness in Liangxiang, so he agreed to his request.

If it doesn't work, he still has to think about the fourth part.

Huimin Pharmacy is the prototype of public hospitals in later generations.

De-bureaucratization is not surprising, but it is conducive to the improvement of medical skills.

"Eunuch Xiao is here, Yan Chengjin comes out to receive the imperial edict."

Wu Kuan called.

Xiao Jing cleared his throat and prepared to read the imperial edict.

Yan Chengjin looked hesitant: "Eunuch Xiao, the ground is cold, you will get rheumatism, can you go inside?"

You are the only one who has too many things to do, why don't others get rheumatism?

Xiao Jing walked to the duty room, cleared his throat again, and read out the imperial edict.

Yan Chengjin couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Huimin Pharmacy was managed by Liangxiang, but it was still owned by the court.

No official, no salary.

Is this different from hiring someone to work without paying him?

However, the first public-private joint-venture pharmacy in the Ming Dynasty was born.

"Eunuch Xiao, read louder."

"Why?"

"You will be recorded in history."

Xiao Jing rolled his eyes at him. Yan Chengjin was not joking. Who knows, the future generations will write like this.

I was recommended by a big book, and I saw old book friends who I haven't seen for a long time. Thanks
