According to Xiaocao's idea, she plans to build this hospital with her own money. After it is built, it may not be a private hospital completely controlled by her. This can be considered after completion. However, the location is difficult to determine. It must be open to everyone. However, there are clear class divisions nowadays, so there may be big problems here.
Of course, this is a matter for the future. Now, Xiaocao needs to take a complete inventory of his property.
Thinking of this, Xiaocao went to her princess mansion first.
Princess Anguo's Mansion was formed by integrating several mansions. The main part was the mansion of an official whose property was confiscated several years ago. It had been left unused for a long time. Later, for Xiaocao's convenience, the mansion was used as the center and the court directly replaced the houses of several people nearby. Then, it was transformed into Princess Anguo's Mansion at the fastest speed and was only completed a few days ago.
Because it was needed in a hurry, not all of it was rebuilt, so it is somewhat different from an ordinary regular mansion. There are also many places where you can still see traces of renovation, especially the garden. But it doesn’t matter. Xiaocao is the only master in this huge princess mansion, and she probably doesn’t live there for long. Therefore, there will be plenty of time to slowly renovate it in the future.
The staff of Princess Anguo's Mansion is now naturally fully equipped. In addition to the head nanny and the chief secretary who handled the general affairs of the Princess' Mansion whom Xiaocao met on the day he returned to the imperial city, when he came back today, he naturally had to meet the rest of the stewards, both big and small.
Xiaocao is not an idle princess. She is busy. In addition to taking care of the princess mansion, these people in the princess mansion will probably need to assist her in dealing with other matters in the future. There will definitely be a lot of work to do.
Once you are familiar with it, you will be able to use it easily in the future.
—That’s right. After Xiaocao couldn’t refuse the princess’s residence, the first thing he thought of was this. Since they were his own people, it seemed justifiable to use them in any way, and his original intention to refuse faded.
Knowing that the master had returned, everyone in the princess's mansion perked up. Except for the black-armored guards, most of them had never seen the master. Now that she was back, they had to meet her anyway, lest they meet her in the future and not recognize her, which would be a joke. - Although the possibility is very low, there is always a chance of something happening.
Led by the head nanny and the chief secretary, they received the news first and were already waiting at the gate when Xiaocao arrived.
There were so many people, Xiao Cao couldn't help but pause. So, so many people were serving her alone? Tsk.
"No need to be polite."
Xiaocao was surrounded and led to the mansion. Along the way, the head nanny introduced the layout of the princess' mansion to Xiaocao. The big items in the mansion were basically all available, but some things that Xiaocao needed for daily use were still missing. These things were originally prepared after consulting the people of the Wen family, but of course it was not enough, so they had to ask Xiaocao about her own preferences.
What preferences could Xiaocao have? She had no preferences. She let the head nanny and the others take care of the preparations. She believed in their vision and their ability to do things. Xiaocao also made it clear that she might not stay in the princess's mansion for a long time, and she had a lot of things to do. She had to rely on them to worry about the princess's mansion.
This was clearly a direct delegation of power. Servant-like people would naturally be delighted to meet a master like Xiaocao. However, the people sent to Princess Anguo's Mansion were all carefully selected. After all, Emperor Xuanren knew Xiaocao's temperament, so he asked Eunuch Hong to select the main people himself. Therefore, these selected people might have some thoughts, but they would never dare to make the mistake of betraying their master.
They also knew Xiaocao's position in Emperor Xuanren's heart, and the important thing was to serve their master wholeheartedly and do their own work well.
Therefore, when Xiaocao made the request, he naturally responded immediately and would do his best not to let the princess down.
Once you enter the princess's mansion, naturally all the honor and disgrace will be on the master. If she is well, then everyone will be well. Of course, there are so many people in the princess's mansion, so it is not easy to stand out. However, Princess Anguo is an expert in medicine, so it is always right to work hard in this area. Therefore, there are indeed many people in the princess's mansion who study medicine privately.
Regardless of what the original purpose was, Xiaocao was very happy after knowing this. Her hospital was bound to be short of staff at the beginning. There were a group of doctors, but there was still a long way to go in terms of nursing staff.
-Since it is based on the scale of the hospital, naturally the doctors will not make house calls, but the patients will go to the hospital by themselves, and they will inevitably need to be hospitalized. Because of the strict separation of men and women, the nursing staff will probably have to be divided by gender. Training needs to be started. It is not necessary to be too professional, but of course it cannot be sloppy. At least you need to understand basic pharmacology, how to prepare and decoct medicines, look after patients, use needles for drips, etc. It is really not a small amount when counted, but it is definitely easier than studying medicine.
"In that case, let them study hard. They will need it later."
Because Xiaocao had no plan to handle all matters of the princess's mansion personally, he did not recognize them carefully. After meeting them, he sent them away and told them to do what they were supposed to do.
Afterwards, they checked the storeroom in the princess's mansion and found that the things were not just the rewards given this time. The rewards were only a small part. The head nanny next to them explained, "The emperor said that the princess's mansion was empty and looked ugly. He had sent a lot of things here before."
Xiao Cao had a complicated mind. When this father dotes on someone, he really dotes on him. He is impeccable. "Thank you very much later. - Nanny, leave the expenses of the Princess's Mansion for half a year. See how much cash you can spare." There are a lot of things, and they are indeed very valuable, but most of them are dead objects and cannot be used. Naturally, they cannot be sold at will. In Wenrenjia, her private property is also the same. There are many treasures but little cash. Thinking of this, "You said before that you would buy things for me, so I will save this. I basically eat and live in Wenrenjia. My mother can't do without me for these things."
The head nanny disagreed with this, but Xiaocao was the master. "Yes. But, Your Highness, Princess Anguo's mansion is just opening, so I'm afraid this opening banquet is indispensable. Look at this..."
"If Mammy hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have thought of this."
"Your Highness is a man who does great things. It is normal that you did not expect these things."
Xiao Cao laughed, "Mammy, you don't have to flatter me. I know what I am like. There are some things that I don't know much about, and I don't think much about. So, I'll have to trouble Mammy to give me more advice on these things in the future."
"Your Highness, that's not right. I have limited energy and can't take care of everything. The existence of me and others is to share the worries of the master. Your Highness, please rest assured to let me and others take charge of the Princess's Mansion. Naturally, I won't let Your Highness worry about it."
"Okay, you guys start preparing for the banquet. You guys know the guest list better than me, as well as the banquet time. Once you're ready, just show it to me."
"only."
According to Xiaocao's idea, there was nearly 100,000 taels of silver left for backup, which Xiaocao could use directly. This was really beyond Xiaocao's expectations. How much did her cheap father give her
"The Emperor said that the Princess's Mansion is newly opened and money is needed everywhere. Some parts of this Princess's Mansion are not yet appropriate and need to be rectified."
Xiao Cao understood, "We'll talk about the rectification later. I'll use the money first."
"Everything in the Princess's Mansion is naturally decided by His Highness. However, may I ask, what is the purpose of His Highness using so much money?" It's not my business, but I really can't figure out why my master needs to use the money.
Xiaocao did not hide anything and told her plan.
"Your Highness really cares about the country and the people."
Xiaocao didn't want to talk anymore. Things were almost done and it was getting late, so Xiaocao prepared to go back to Wenrenjia.
"Your Highness, how about bringing two more people to serve you? Not to mention the little maid, bring two aunts, they are both very reliable people, there are some things that the little maid is not convenient to handle, you can let them do it, what do you think?"
Xiaocao thought about it and did not refuse, "Mammy, please pick two more for me. I'm going to the Zuo family tomorrow..." She also did not hide the fact that she was going to deal with Zuo's son-in-law. She sent two people over to supervise, and no one in the Zuo family dared to do anything.
"I will pick two of the safest ones for Your Highness."
Xiaocao nodded, and after the people made their choice, she took them away from the princess's mansion.
With a few more people, Xiaocao's yard seemed a little small. However, the aunts were the best at reading people's expressions and would not do anything to cause trouble. Compared with those who originally served the princess, they were latecomers and had to take it slowly if they wanted to gain a foothold.
