In the blink of an eye, it has been more than half a month. It has not rained for half a month and the high temperature has continued. There have been rumors of severe drought in the capital, and food prices have also risen a little.
Zhulan's feet are a little better. They are not so swollen anymore, but they can't walk. There is ice in the room, and the indoor temperature is not too high.
Xuehan had a big belly, "It's too hot, people who are hot are uncomfortable."
Zhulan, "Stay away from Bing, you are pregnant!"
Xuehan felt uncomfortably hot, "I'm even hotter when I'm pregnant, I sweat when I move, Mom, Dad's birthday yet?"
Zhulan put down her fan, "I discussed it with your father, this year's birthday is not enough, the first is that our family will be killed more this year, and the second is that the weather is too abnormal, the emperor and the prince are in a bad mood these days, so we don't do it. "
Xuehan frowned, "The manor and fields of Hou's manor are all watered by manpower. If it weren't for the heavy rain in the spring, some water had accumulated, and now the water for the fields would not be enough."
Even so, the water level in the river dropped a little.
Zhulan naturally knows that she has a lot of fields, "I have asked your eldest brother to find someone to see the water pulse and dig a well, you can also arrange it."
Xuehan wrote down, "Yeah."
In the palace, Zhou Shuren sat at the table to settle accounts. He knew that the weather was abnormal, and he was not in the mood to wait, so he had to calculate the money used to dig wells and the money used to buy food.
He regretted it. He only remembered that there was a small glacier in history. He really didn't remember anything about the drought. The only thing he remembered was the three years in modern times.
The emperor looked at the handbooks sent from all over the country. There was also rain in the northeast, but the situation was better than in the capital. There have been two games in the northeast in recent days. The main locations are in the capital and the northwest. The rain stopped a few days ago in the south. But these seven days, the sky is like a leak, and the heavy rain has not stopped, which is the opposite of the continuous heating in the north.
Zhou Shuren handed the calculated amount of silver to the emperor and the prince, "This is the amount to save costs as much as possible, and the minister still has to keep the silver to deal with the possibility of the dam bursting in the south."
Speaking of this, my heart is bleeding. After finally rebuilding the dam, the rain in the south stopped. He also read a lot of papers sent from the south. Finally, the spring rain stopped and the quilt dried, and it started to fall again. It was raining heavily, the quilts and clothes were wet, and the hospital was crowded with patients.
Zhou Shuren can still recall the drought and flood that he saw on TV. How advanced is modern technology, but it is still insignificant in front of nature.
There were no modern methods in ancient times. He couldn't think of the scene of the Southern Medical Center, but his heart was still gripping. He was afraid that a large-scale plague would break out. This year was really a bad year.
The emperor looked at the amount, "This money does not need to go to the state treasury, this money goes to my private treasury."
In recent years, because of the industries that Shi Qing brought to his door and the rise of Shanghai trade, these industries are very popular with foreigners, and they have earned a lot of money over the years, so he has the confidence to build Rongyuan.
Now, except for the money given to the younger son, this time the money is taken, and his private treasury is out of money.
Zhou Shuren glanced at the amount he had calculated. He wrote it right. The emperor really has money. This is 600,000 taels of silver!
There is not much money in digging the well, and the manpower can be provided by each village, and then the money can be used to help dig the well.
The cost of 600,000 taels was mainly for food. This time, the caravan was used to buy food in various countries and was escorted by the navy.
Zhou Shuren thought of the plague, "Then this silver minister wants to divide it into several parts."
The emperor was pleased that Zhou Shuren had the people in his heart and did not hide his secrets at this time, "Speak."
Zhou Shuren said: "Some of the ministers imagined caravans from various countries to buy medicinal materials, the second part, the minister wanted to organize some private doctors, and the third part was to serve as the salary of these doctors."
The prince leaned closer, "Can Master Zhou explain?"
Zhou Shuren said: "In the south, the minister is afraid that the continuous rain in the south will cause a plague. Now the medical halls in the south are crowded with patients. Be prepared to avoid situations where no medicine is available."
The prince and the emperor were stunned. They were more concerned about the drought in the capital generation. There is a rainy season in the south every year. Even if there is heavy rain, the priority will be in the south.
The emperor's tone was a little anxious, "Find out the excerpts from the south."
The prince quickly found it, and he really found the book that wrote the illnesses in various parts of the south.
The emperor looked at Zhou Shuren and said, "You can see the key points after only reading it once. I am very pleased, Shuren continued."
Zhou Shuren continued: "There are also folk doctors who have inherited medical skills for a long time. The number of imperial doctors in the imperial hospital is limited. The minister thinks that they can recruit private doctors for the imperial court. They can still operate the previous medical center, but when the imperial court needs people, they To be unified, the salary is given to them in the end, only the doctors who have passed the exam will get a salary every month, and there will be an exam once a year, and those who fail the assessment will get their salary back.”
The emperor and the prince listened very seriously. The emperor controls the world, and the prince manages the government and sees it more widely.
Zhou Shuren saw the emperor looking at him, "These doctors will be awarded plaques according to their rankings in the examination. As long as they get the first few, they can also get subsidies from the imperial court, and they can even enter the Imperial Hospital to study."
The prince's eyes shone brightly, "In this way, I have mastered the doctors in the whole country, and if there is a need for doctors in the future, the court will be able to have available people, and the assessment and study will allow these folk doctors to continue to specialize in medical skills and improve medical skills, good ideas, good idea."
The emperor thought more, and if it was really done, the royal family would have a more intuitive understanding of the people, and it would be possible to avoid the situation where officials from all over the world made false reports, and the court did not pay much.
Zhou Shuren and his daughter-in-law have no choice. In ancient times, they paid too much attention to inheritance. Master and apprentice were like parents and children. , to avoid disputes.
The emperor motioned the prince to sort out what he just heard, and then said with a smile, "Shuren's head is really precious."
Zhou Shuren felt guilty, this idea was discussed by him and his wife, not his own, "This minister deserves it."
He has a wife-in-law, but others don't!
The emperor said: "I have approved the use of this silver."
Zhou Shuren twitched the corners of his mouth, "Your Majesty, the minister is the minister of the household department.
He didn't want to put a burden on himself, and he didn't want to continue to be in the limelight. Now he is more and more dangerous, low-key, low-key, and the academicians are more and more disliked by him.
The emperor regretted that Zhou Shuren had great talents, but now the Ministry of Household needs him even more, "I will not forget your achievements, I will remember them all."
Zhou Shuren didn't feel a loss this time. This time, it wasn't for the benefit. He didn't want to see corpses everywhere, and he didn't want to hear the cry of the dead. This time, their husband and wife were only for the common people!
