Yes, by that time the people of Qingzhou will have benefited, and the local medical department promoted by the imperial court will be carried out smoothly. As for the situation that is not very friendly to the latter county magistrate, County Magistrate Lu can only say to the future successor in his heart "Work hard".
It's a pity that Zhou Man blocked everyone's persuasion with one sentence.
County Magistrate Lu sighed and said, "I don't know when the new governor will take office. When the governor arrives, this matter will be discussed by the governor and Zhou Man."
Nothing happened to him at all.
Mrs. Lu said softly: "Mr. Lang can urge her to open the medical office as soon as possible. Wouldn't the situation be under control before the governor arrives?"
County Magistrate Lu, "Then what if she made it clear that the medical office will be located in Qingzhou City?"
"No way," Mrs. Lu said, "Although Mrs. Zhou said that monarchs and ministers are above husband and wife, there is no woman in the world who does not miss her husband. Didn't she also say that she would go to Beihai County first? Obviously Just to accompany Lord Bai."
County magistrate Lu felt that what she said made sense, but at the same time felt that Zhou Man was not such a person, otherwise she would not have achieved such achievements, so he was undecided.
He said: "Wait and see, the new governor will not be able to take office for a while, let's see what she does in Beihai County. It would be best if she wants to take root in Beihai County. If she really runs in various counties, then I will Just urge her to settle down on a place as soon as possible."
County magistrate Lu decided to play it by ear, so there was no need to rush to make up his mind at this time.
And Zhou Man and Bai Shan, who were slightly drunk, returned to the post station, feeling very refreshed and didn't want to sleep at all.
She dragged Bai Shan to discuss, "If County Magistrate Lu urges me to fix the address of the medical office, do you think I should fix it in Qingzhou City or Beihai County?"
Bai Shan asked, "Is he urging us to respond?"
Man Bao was distressed: "It shouldn't be bad, right?"
She said: "He is acting as the governor for the time being. If I don't choose the address for a long time, he can impeach me in the name of negligence."
Bai Shan said firmly, "He won't offend you like this."
"Huh?" Man Bao was puzzled.
Seeing her head tilted with a dazed face, and her cheeks flushed from drunkenness, Bai Shan couldn't help but took her hand and sat on the bedside and smiled, "Didn't you notice? County magistrate Lu is extremely polite to us, such politeness It has exceeded the concern among officials in Linxian County, obviously, he wants to make friends with us, and in this case, he will not easily go to this step of impeachment."
Unless the benefits of impeaching Zhou Man far outweigh the disadvantages, he will not impeach.
And Zhou Man is still deeply in the emperor's heart. Except for a few people in the court, most people have a good impression of her, or have received her favor.
This is one of the advantages of being an imperial doctor. As long as there are officials or officials in the court who are seriously ill, or lingering on the sick bed, those who have been ill for a long time will invite people from the imperial hospital.
And the three currently recognized as the best medical skills in the Imperial Hospital are Xiao Yuanzheng, Liu Imperial Physician, and Zhou Man.
Xiaoyuan is not easy to invite, Liu imperial physician and Zhou Man are basically the most popular imperial physicians among powerful ministers and aristocratic families.
Bai Shan squeezed her fingers and said with a smile: "I think, between me and you, Magistrate Lu will choose to impeach me ten times, and he won't impeach you once."
Zhou Man became complacent when he heard the words, and waved his big hand: "Then I will go to Beihai County with you tomorrow after I go to the Governor's Mansion to publish the report. Don't worry about Qingzhou City. We will talk about it when the new Governor arrives."
Bai Shan asked: "Do you want to set up the medical office in Beihai County?"
Man Bao tilted his head to look at him, "Isn't it good?"
Bai Shan pondered and said, "It's not bad. Beihai County is a lower county. It's very poor, and there are more patients who can't afford medical treatment. But Qingzhou City is the center of Qingzhou. It's not appropriate for you to give up Qingzhou and choose Beihai County."
On the way here, Bai Shan thought about this problem. He squeezed Man Bao's hand and sighed: "I don't want to separate the two places with you. Fortunately, Beihai County is not very far from Qingzhou City. Every holiday I go I can see you..."
Man Bao shook his head and said, "Bai Shan, have you forgotten? The blueprint of the local medical department we envisioned at the beginning is not one medical department per state, but one medical department per place, and one place is one county."
Bai Shan was stunned for a moment and then said: "Now you have the ability to set up a medical office in one county?"
"No," Man Bao shook his head honestly, "but I can have three medical offices in one state, or even four medical offices."
She said: "I thought about it on the way here. Qingzhou is not too small. There are seven counties. If the people in each county go to Qingzhou, some people may need to walk for five or six days or even longer to get to Qingzhou." Arrive at Qingzhou City for medical treatment."
"This is fatal for some emergencies. Alas, I also know that neither I, Xiao Yuanzheng, nor the court have the ability to realize one county, one medical department, but I want to work hard. Between the two counties, or If the distance between the three counties is relatively short for the three counties to set up a medical center, the number of patients who can be treated will only be more.”
"And this will not rob the local pharmacies and clinics of business too much," Man Bao said, "I know that many things about the counterfeit medicine case in Luozhou have not been found out, or have not been announced, but one thing, the local Some pharmacies and clinics here must have known about it, and even participated in it, and the reason is that the medical department snatched many of their patients."
"The influence of the local medical department on the county where it is located is the largest, and then gradually decreases according to the length of the distance. In the end, the influence on the farthest county is the weakest."
Bai Shan asked: "If you set up a branch of the medical department among the three counties, do you want to control the source of patients?"
"The admissions of the medical department are limited, and there is no need to specifically screen them. You only need to set a few conditions, such as queuing up. If there are too many patients, some patients who are not very short of money at home and are willing to pay for medicines will be the first to go. Choose faster and more convenient pharmacies and clinics," Man Bao said, "We can even cooperate with pharmacies and clinics."
"Joint consultations, purchase of medicinal materials, etc. Basically, large pharmacies and medical centers have one or more channels for the purchase of medicinal materials. Cooperation with them is mutually beneficial."
For example, Jishitang.
Ji Shitang's pharmacy earns most of its income, seeing patients and getting medicines, but he is also in the business of medicinal materials. As far as Man Bao knows, Ji Shitang has two lines of medicinal materials, and the revenue from those two medicinal material lines is earned every year There are also quite a few, not only supplying their own pharmacy, but also doing this business with other pharmacies.
Man Bao said: "Everyone will get sick. There are so many people in the world. As long as the medical skills are good enough, there will be no worries about no patients. The medical department will take away some patients, but we must not take away all of them. Our purpose is to Let more people who can't see a doctor and afford medicines come to see a doctor and buy medicines, and let those who can afford to see a doctor and buy medicines spend less money to see a doctor and buy medicines, instead of trying to catch all the patients in the world."
"The medical department is small and can't do this, so I think the benefits of cooperation are more than fighting each other."
Bai Shan looked at Zhou Man who was talking eloquently, his heart softened, and then his heart swelled, he couldn't help but reached out and hugged her, wrapped her in his arms, and said softly: "I'm with you! "
Man Bao smiled brightly, stretched out his arms and hugged him back, "Yeah!"
