Huang Zhong heard that, knowing that Mrs. Liu must know some famous doctor, he rushed back to the house and carried out his son. I saw that this child was also born with a tiger-headed brain, but his face was like golden paper, his eyes closed tightly, and his life was hanging by a thread. The group mounted their horses and rushed straight to Chen's Mansion, where Zhang Ji's temporary clinic is now.

Zhang Ji's fingers slowly moved away from the child's wrist, and he nodded lightly.

Liu Xin asked eagerly: "Zhong Jing, how is this child's condition?"

Zhang Ji replied unhurriedly: "Master, this child has a frivolity and tightness, aversion to cold but no sweat. This is a symptom of solar typhoid fever."

Huang Zhong heard him speak of the illness and hurriedly fell to his knees and said: "Since your husband is aware of this disease, please save my son's life!"

Zhang Ji stretched out his hand to support Huang Zhong and said, "Hurry up, this brother, don't worry, I have a dose of ephedra decoction, and it will be cured after taking it for a few days."

Liu Xin listened next to him, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Huang Zhong: "Don't worry, Mr. Zhong Jing has unparalleled medical skills. Your son will get better soon."

Huang Zhongchao and Liu Xin folded his hands and said, "Thank you, adults, for saving the children."

Liu Xin said indifferently: "Don't say it's your child, it's just the child of an ordinary Yellow Turban thief. If I run into a serious illness, I will also ask Mr. Zhong Jing to try my best to help, because in any case, the child It is innocent. However, if you violate the military order, I will not take it lightly! These days, you take care of your child first, and when the child recovers, you can go to the state shepherd house to collect the crime."

Huang Zhong already had tears in his eyes, choked and couldn't speak, but nodded frequently.

Liu Xin patted him on the shoulder and said, "Take the upper son, go and grab the medicine for the child! I will wait for you in the mansion three days later."

Looking at the back of Huang Zhong's departure, Zhang Ji said to Liu Xin: "The lord is really a man of benevolence and righteousness. As expected, I didn't follow the wrong person."

Liu Xin said embarrassedly: "Okay, Mr. Zhong Jing doesn't have to praise me. You are the one who saved the dead and healed the wounded. I didn't do anything. By the way, your medical school has been established for a month, so why don't you accept an apprentice? ?"

Zhang Ji sighed and said, "Oh, it's hard to say in one word. Not to mention the children of the noble family, even ordinary people refuse to let their children come to learn medicine. My sign has been hanging out for half a month, but no one came."

Liu Xin didn’t expect things to be like this. He thought for a while, and said: “Well, I asked Mr. Zirou to build an orphanage, which accommodates many orphans. It is also located in this mansion. You have time to visit there. Look, maybe you can pick a few with good qualifications. In addition, there are many homeless women. You can also choose some capable ones and train them on delivery knowledge."

Zhang Ji was very excited about Liu Xin's selection of orphans as apprentices, but he didn't understand how good training midwives could be. In fact, he didn't know that Liu Xin was very worried about women's birth and childcare in this era, both of which are important reasons for restricting population growth, and population is an important resource for him to compete for the world in the future.

Liu Xin unexpectedly accepted two generals and was in a good mood. Although they have not yet been appointed to official positions, the abilities of the two of them are beyond doubt, especially Huang Zhong, who was still able to beat Xia Houyuan when he was in his fifties. Now he is in his prime, he should be in martial arts. At the peak state, it is estimated that even if you encounter Lu Bu, you will have a good fight.

Nanyang and Nanxiang are undergoing intensive reconstruction, and Kuai Yue and Han Opera have also been sent to assist Zhang Yun and Xu Huang respectively. However, under the influence of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, almost everything was lacking, ranging from wood and cattle to small needles and thread brains. At this time, the Wang family's caravan played an important role in it, alleviating the urgent needs of the two places. This is still a win-win situation. Although the price increase of each product is not much, the victory is in the large quantity, and the Wang family still made a lot of money. In order to attract businessmen from all over the country to participate in the construction, Liu Xin required that all transactions with the government be settled on the spot and never defaulted.

The expansion project of Xiangyang City is progressing very fast. Not only the official residences, research institutes, medical schools, and academies have started at the same time, but the main streets and drainage facilities in the new city have also begun to be fully constructed. The entire city has become a large construction site. The demand for this building material has soared. The keen businessmen quickly noticed the business opportunities in this area, coupled with the successful case of the Wang family, these people have invested in, and various materials and resources have been continuously transported to Xiangyang, ensuring the smooth progress of various projects.

In addition to the medical school and orphanage of Chen Fuzhong, the rest of the place was used to set up a research institute. A group of highly skilled craftsmen were summoned in, and a number of studies were carried out at the same time. Anyone who can enter the academy will be regarded as a member of the government in the future. This policy makes the craftsmen very excited, and they can finally eat the royal food. According to Liu Xin, they are divided into three levels: academicians, technicians and technicians. Different levels enjoy different treatments. As long as they make significant contributions, they can be promoted to one level. Xiang Lang, who was also the commander-in-chief of the Academy and Xiangyang City Construction, became the busiest person for a while.

Kong Wen is equally energetic. It didn't take long for the first batch of high-quality paper to be produced. Liu Xin personally named this batch of paper "Xiang Paper". With the birth of Xiangzhi, Moxiangzhai also opened in the four cities of Xiangyang, Wancheng, Zhangling and Changsha at the same time. On the first day when Xiangzhi was placed on the counter, it was sold out by the gentry and doctors and had to implement a limited supply.

The secret spy organization Jusao has also been set up. Because no one has set up such a special organization before, and there is no experience to learn from. For the purpose of training the team, Jushou first conducted a pilot project in the four counties under Liu Xin's control, so that he can come forward when necessary and get the local government’s advice. stand by. However, Jushou was not happy, because he was still in charge of the finances of the whole state, so much work was carried out at the same time, and the money in the treasury poured out like water, which made him feel distressed.

In the entire Xiangyang City, if anyone is more leisurely, it is Cai Yong. Although Liu Xin has appointed him as the principal of Xiangyang Academy, Liu Xin hopes that students can have a stable and peaceful place to study, and insists that he must wait until the academy is officially completed before accepting him to admit students. Therefore, Cai Yong has always only been paid, and no work is required. However, Mr. Cai is not an idle person. After finishing the more than 3,000 books he brought with him, he also carefully sorted the books that Liu Xin had checked from Chen Jie's house. Now he is interested in the peaks in the southwest of Xiangyang again. As long as the weather is fine, he always has to go out of the city to visit.

With the smooth development of various undertakings, Liu Xin's attention was again placed on army building. He carried out a thorough reform of the army's organizational system, dividing all the army into regular army and local army. The regular army is similar to the field troops of later generations, while the local army only performs some guard and guard tasks. The Nanyang Defeated Army had also been broken up and assigned to the local army in various places.

What troubles Liu Xin the most is the special forces he has always wanted to set up. He very much hopes to have a sharp knife force similar to the later SEALs, but he knows nothing about this. For this reason, he had to put down his arrogance and humbly asked Ma Yun for advice.

Ma Yun agreed with Liu Xin's idea of setting up special forces. After thinking about it all night, he said to Liu Xin: "Although I have participated in military training, I have not really been a soldier. I don't know how to train special forces. But. I have seen the training of special police. Special forces should be different from other units. His focus should be on individual skills and small team cooperation. I think we should start with the physical fitness of the soldiers, which can be divided into physical fitness and Training in several subjects such as survival in the wild, close combat, and concealment."

Liu Xin carefully pondered Ma Yun's words, and said embarrassedly: "The soldiers in Jingzhou, in terms of their physical conditions, are not as good as the soldiers recruited in the river, let alone the nomads on the grasslands. If you want to learn from them, It may be difficult to select enough people suitable for special forces."

Ma Yun had his own thoughts on this, saying: "I guess it has a lot to do with eating habits. People on the grassland eat beef and mutton, while the people in Jingzhou mainly use corn, which should be due to insufficient protein intake To. Some ways can be considered to enhance the nutrition of these recruits."

Although faced with many difficulties, Liu Xin's special forces were formed. After returning to the team, Huang Zhong and Wenpin were appointed by Liu Xin as school lieutenants, and the two of them were responsible for this force.

Gradually it was midsummer, and Liu Xin very humanely arranged two hours of rest for the migrant workers, soldiers, and Yellow Turban captives at noon, and according to the recipe provided by Zhang Ji, he prepared a refreshing soup for them to cool off the heat. .

Midsummer is the hardest day of the year. The noon sun is running wildly, the branches of the willow tree are hanging listlessly, and the dog is so hot that he sticks out his red tongue.

Both Ma Yun and Bian Yu have the habit of taking a lunch break, and even the little Liu Yu was coaxed to sleep. Ever since he changed his career and stopped being a thief, Liu Xin has not adapted to the life of day and night, and can't sleep anyhow during the day. It seemed that there was a fire outside, and Liu Xin naturally didn't want to go out. He was so bored that he could only hang out in the back garden.

It's been busy recently, and Liu Xin hasn't been to the garden for some days. The flowers and trees in the garden were growing wild and unscrupulous, and the green was thick and deep. The cicada made annoying calls from time to time on the tree, and occasionally a few bubbles turned up in the pond, thinking that the fish came up to take a breath. Some of the lotus in the pond is already in full bloom, and some are just about to bloom. The melodious croaking of frogs is refreshing, and the body seems to have a slight coolness.

Liu Xin involuntarily walked towards the pond, only to hear a "plop", a few water splashes splashed in the pond, and ripples swayed towards the shore. Liu Xin raised his eyes and saw a green figure sitting under the willow tree by the pavilion. With a raised hand, there was another splash in the pond with a "wave".
