The Ming Dynasty started with caution

Yan Chengjin came to Huimin Pharmacy to look at the account books.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate monitors the government and the opposition, which should be supervised by ordinary censors.

However, officials from the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Personnel were not in favor of handing over the imperial government offices to private individuals.

Even His Majesty is watching.

Huimin Pharmacy in Beijing was the prototype of later hospitals.

Yan Chengjin had to keep it as it is today and make Ming's medical treatment a big step forward.

As his medical skills improve, he might be able to live to one hundred and fifty.

"I've made too little. It's been almost two months now and I've only made a thousand taels?"

Wang Ji looked ashamed: "Replying to your lord, the gentry are all here to see the inability to move, and they still have to wait for prescription No. 9 to be sent back."

There were many brothels in the capital. The gentry would go to the brothels for entertainment when they had nothing to do. They also had a group of wives and concubines waiting to support them at home.

In the Ming Dynasty, this disease was more common than typhoid fever.

This is a problem faced by everyone from emperors and ministers to gentry and celebrities.

It is rumored that Zhang Juzheng has been suffering from the seal whip supplied by Qi Jiguang.

But the sea dog whip couldn't solve the problem, so Liangxiang developed prescription No. 9.

It can not only cure the diseases of the gentry, but also make money, and can also prosper the population of the Ming Dynasty.

"Prescription No. 9 needs to be prepared in North Korea, and Liu Jingting should be in North Korea at this time."

Liu Jingting was an engineer chosen from thousands of people from a medical family in Liangxiang.

His medical treatment was far inferior to that of Wang Ji and Hu Dayuan.

However, pharmaceuticals are great.

If you can get No. 9 medicine back from North Korea, you can make a lot of money in Ming Dynasty.

Just like a capital country building a manufacturing plant in a backward country, it has both raw materials and cheap coolies, and can also make money.

I just don’t know if Cheng Minzheng can establish a pharmacy.

…

North Korea, Hanyang.

Cheng Minzheng washed and dressed under the service of two students.

Liang Xiaoyi walked in to announce the good news: "Sir, Lord Qingtian sent someone to see you."

Cheng Minzheng knew that the Qingtian Mingzhao was talking about was Yan Chengjin. Because he didn't know his name, he kept calling him Qingtian.

The wise nephew didn't write letters when he had nothing to do. He walked outside the house and saw a scholar carrying a red box.

Liu Jingting met Cheng Minzheng: "Student Liu Jingting, under the orders of Master Yan, opened a pharmacy in Hanyang and prepared No. 9 prescription."

Cheng Minzheng read the letter and looked at the items required for the prescription.

"Korean Ginseng Shenbao Tablets? My nephew's method is good, but opening a pharmacy is difficult."

The mechanism in North Korea is similar to that in the Ming Dynasty. The medicines on the market are controlled by the imperial hospital.

Korean ginseng is strictly regulated.

Because of its high price, merchants often smuggled it into the sea and smuggled it to the Ming Dynasty for sale. They were often caught and executed by the nine tribes.

"I will go to the palace first, and you should come with me."

Although the king of Jincheng was recognized by the Ming Dynasty as the king.

However, she was too young to suppress the factions in the court, so Concubine Cishun still managed the affairs behind the curtain.

"Concubine, Mr. Cheng from the Ming Dynasty wants to see you."

Cheng Minzheng took off his shoes and walked into Concubine Cishun's bedroom.

The officials of the government and Liucao were all there, and the king of Jincheng went to study.

"Concubine, I, the Ming Dynasty, want to build a pharmacy in Hanyang, and we need a lot of Korean ginseng."

In addition to tribute rice, the income of the Joseon royal family comes from Korean ginseng.

When the gentry went to the Ming Dynasty to do business, they brought Korean ginseng instead of silver.

Sell ​​the Korean ginseng first, and then buy what needs to be purchased.

A pack of Korean ginseng weighs one thousand yen. It can be sold for two hundred and fifty taels.

Concubine Cishun was still wary of things that would shake the country's foundation: "What kind of medicine should I make?"

Cheng Minzheng presented the name and efficacy of the medicine.

"My dear, if we supply Korean ginseng medicine to the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court's tax revenue will plummet."

"I second the proposal!"

The government and the Six Cao ministers were afraid that Concubine Cishun would agree, so they tried to dissuade her.

Yan Chengjin listed various countermeasures in his letter, and Cheng Minzheng followed his words: "The Ming Dynasty can use 30% of the silver as procurement expenses and taxes."

An official from Hucao said: "It's only 30%. One Korean ginseng from our dynasty can be sold for twenty-five taels in the Ming Dynasty."

Cheng Minzheng responded: "If this medicine were sold to the Ming Dynasty, 30% would be an astronomical figure."

"What medicine?"

The Yizhengyuan and Liucao officials were very curious.

Not long after, Xu Jun, the imperial doctor of the Imperial Hospital, came to the dormitory. Also summoned was Liu Jingting.

Xu Jun looked at the efficacy written on the paper and said suspiciously: "A small pill has such efficacy? I don't believe it!"

"The imperial doctor can give it a try. It doesn't hurt to take five pills." Liu Jingting took out the medicine bottle.

Korean Ginseng Shenbao Tablets are long-term medicines, so just take one pill.

But in order to achieve significant results, just take five pills.

I saw Xu Jun lift the medicine bottle and pour most of it into his mouth.

Seeing Liu Jingting's confused face, he hurriedly said: "Master Xu, don't eat too much."

"You are in charge, my dearest lady. If this medicine is ineffective, please reject the request of the Ming envoy."

Xu Jun's face began to flush, his whole body felt a little hot, and he felt like he had endless energy.

He is completely different from Fang Cai.

"Mother, I must retire first!"

Concubine Cishun looked at Liu Jingting in panic: "Is this...?"

"Does Imperial Physician Xu have a wife?" Liu Jingting glanced at Xu Jun and asked.

"have."

Liu Jingting bowed and said cryptically: "This is the disadvantage of overdosing the medicine. Send Mr. Xu back to the house and everything will be fine."

…

In the capital, the wind and snow are slowly falling.

Yan Chengjin took shelter from the cold at his house and did not go to court. The heater was burning in the study and it was warm.

Zheng Qian brought a stack of documents and said, "Sir, they are all here."

Yan Chengjin wrote eight impeachments and presented them to His Majesty, which would surely be earth-shaking.

Since the cabinet did not recommend him, he could only use impeachments to speak for himself.

Nowadays, the court and the country are relatively clear, and His Majesty values ​​​​virtuous ministers. The treacherous ministers like Jiao Fang and Liu Jin have been eliminated and sent overseas.

The only shortcoming is that His Majesty always blocks his promotion.

The cabinet always uses this boy as an excuse that he is too cautious and can't be used.

It's better to take the opportunity of checking the population and the yellow book to let His Majesty and the cabinet know that he is not unusable, but should be used with caution.

"I will not go to court tomorrow, you can help me take leave."

"Yes."

Zheng Qian responded and assisted Yan Chengjin in reading the family files.

In the Censorate,

Wu Kuan was sighing that Yan Chengjin was increasingly looking down on him.

He took so many days off for no reason.

The clerk presented a memorial: "Sir, this is a memorial sent back by Xu Yuan, the Supervisory Censor of Shandong."

It's winter, and heavy snow is coming. If the people cannot be properly settled before winter, the consequences will be extremely serious.

This is the first memorial sent back by Xu Yuan, and he opened it quickly.

After reading it, he pondered for a moment.

"Your Majesty must be waiting anxiously. I will go to see you now." He picked up his official hat and hurried out.

"It's winter, and Shandong hasn't sent back a memorial yet?" Emperor Hongzhi was disappointed.

Liu Jian and the other two looked at each other.

The natural disaster that the court pays the most attention to is the collapse of the ground.

In addition, Mount Tai has an inexplicable favor to Your Majesty, which makes Your Majesty miss the people in the three places of Shandong.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I haven't received the memorial yet."

"Yan Chengjin has sent people to deliver medicinal materials, and there are doctors accompanying him. I think he should be fine."

Li Dongyang comforted.

Emperor Hongzhi could also hear that this was just a comforting word.

Without Shandong's memorial, he was on edge, and dared not relax.

"Your Majesty, the Chief Censor of the Censorate, Mr. Wu, wants to see you!"

Wu Kuan stepped into the hall and shouted: "Your Majesty, Shandong has sent back a memorial."
