Chapter 2787 Qualification
Manbao had already put Master Zhiren's temptation behind him, and happily went shopping and went home hand in hand with Baishan.
This is a very normal thing. Buddhism and Taoism have the responsibility to preach. Their hearts are never dead anyway. So why bother about it and prevent yourself from having fun?
Bai Shan saw a stall owner making clay figures. The clay in his hands quickly took shape, with a round face and a cute smile. After some adjustments, he soon made one. He handed it to the customer in front of him with a smile on his face, and then went on to pinch a ball of clay to make other people...
Bai Shan immediately pulled Man Bao forward.
He saw the two of them, his eyes swept over their joined hands, and he said with a smile, "My dear and my lady, would you like to make a pair of clay figurines? I have many kinds of clay figurines, some are single, some can be made together, some are plain, and some are painted."
Bai Shan smiled and said, "We want to make three, one as a pair, to make us together, and the other two for us alone, all of them must be painted."
"Good," the stall owner smiled with his eyebrows curved. After looking at Zhou Man, he quickly pinched her hair, praising her as he did so, "My wife has a round face, which is really a sign of good fortune."
Manbao couldn't help but smile at Baishan. The stall owner saw it and secretly took note of this scene, planning to use the same expression when he made a pair of anthropomorphic figurines later.
The two of them were getting bored waiting, so Bai Shan took advantage of the cover of his sleeve to pinch Zhou Man's fingers and asked, "What did Master Zhiren say to you just now?"
Man Bao said, "It's nothing. The Imperial Medical Bureau wants to set up several local medical offices. The Huguo Temple wanted to cooperate with us, but I rejected it."
Bai Shan nodded slightly. "Now the country is peaceful and the people are safe. The national treasury does not lack this little money. We don't need to cooperate with the monks."
Gaochang in the northwest was destroyed, and Goguryeo in Liaodong was also destroyed. Now your majesty's reputation and the prestige of the Jin Dynasty have spread throughout the world. At least as long as the current emperor is here, there will be no more major wars in the Jin Dynasty, and the number of people causing chaos at home and abroad will decrease dramatically.
In this way, the expenditure on armaments will be reduced a lot, not to mention the annual expenditure on food, fodder, medicine, etc. for combat. These savings can be used to do many things.
The Imperial Medical Bureau requires very little and does not need any external support, so there is no need to cooperate with the Huguo Temple.
This is not a time of war, the country has no support, the treasury is empty, and it has to rely on external forces.
Bai Shan turned around and asked, "Where are you planning to set up additional medical offices?"
Man Bao said, "Twenty-five places were reported, but Xiao Yuanzheng and I both felt that half of them would be enough."
She said, "The court has agreed to allow us to cooperate with the Ministry of War. In the future, military doctors from all armies will be sent to our Imperial Medical Bureau for two to three years of training, and students from our Imperial Medical Bureau can also choose to serve in various armies."
Bai Shan raised an eyebrow, "I didn't see your memorial."
Manbao laughed and said, "I wrote the memorial, so they should have hidden it, right?"
For memorials like this that are not very urgent and require discussion, the Secretariat will not submit them all at once like urgent memorials. Whoever the memorial is from will be submitted to the emperor as long as it can be submitted to the emperor.
They would keep memorials like this secret. For example, a father's memorial could not be reviewed and uploaded by his son; a younger brother's memorial could not be reviewed and uploaded by his older brother; and of course, a wife's memorial could not be reviewed and uploaded by her husband.
There were many fathers and sons, and brothers serving in the same court among the civil and military officials, but they were the only couple serving in the same court.
Unfortunately, Bai Shan was in charge of the important Secretariat. Except for secret memorials, all memorials, useful or useless, had to go through the Secretariat.
Even if there are four secretaries in the Secretariat, the probability of it passing through his hands is still too high.
So you still have to avoid it if you need to.
Bai Shan didn't care, nodded, and pulled her aside to wait for the clay figure.
Neither of them noticed that someone in a stall nearby looked at them twice, then bought something and turned away.
Not only them, but even Daji and Koko didn't notice this person.
The stall owner carefully made the clay figurine and handed it to them, saying with a smile, "Don't expose it to direct sunlight. Dry it in the sun in the morning and evening, and keep it in the shade the rest of the time. It can be preserved for a long time."
In fact, the best way is to fire it in a furnace after kneading it to turn it into porcelain, so that it can be preserved for a longer time.
Bai Shan paid the money, thanked him, and left holding Man Bao's hand.
The two of them shopped and ate all the way back home.
The next day, Manbao still slept until dawn before getting up to wash and read. Ah, the days on vacation are so wonderful. He doesn't have to attend big court meetings, nor does he have to rush to the palace early to report for duty, nor does he have to be on duty. He can sleep until dawn, which is so comfortable.
Then she opened the book, and before she had even turned a page, Wu Yue came over to report, "Madam, the shopkeeper Zheng from Jishiditang is here."
Manbao said "Huh" and put down the book. "Why is Manager Zheng here?"
She has always had a good relationship with Jishidiang, and even now the two companies have a lot of cooperation, but Manager Zheng basically never comes to her house. Because whenever she is free, she will occasionally go to Jishidiang, both to exchange medical skills and to ask if they have received any difficult and complicated cases.
Manbao stood up and said, "Please come in."
She went to the main room to meet someone.
Manager Zheng came in with a smile on his face. After exchanging greetings with Zhou Man, he asked directly, "Doctor Zhou, is the Imperial Medical Bureau planning to establish a local medical bureau?"
Manbao: "...Are you all so well-informed?"
The plan has only just begun. Although the officials in the court have agreed, the specific number of places to be given has not yet been decided.
I have some suspicion that it was Doctor Zheng who told Manager Zheng.
Manager Zheng laughed and said, "It's not that I'm well-informed. A drug dealer heard the conversation between Doctor Zhou and Master Bai on the road and came to me to ask for the medical department's qualifications to supply medicine. That's how I found out."
Innocent Doctor Zheng: ...
Manbao's heart skipped a beat and he sat up straight, "Did anyone hear me talking to Bai Shan?"
"yes."
Manbao frowned. They were standing close to each other and spoke in low voices. There were guards all around, so how could anyone hear them?
But there are always some extraordinary people in the world, maybe he has good ears.
Manbao looked at the shopkeeper Zheng and asked curiously, "He asked for the qualifications to supply medicine, and the shopkeeper came? Who is he?"
But the shopkeeper Zheng Da smiled and said, "I am not asking for it on his behalf, but on behalf of Jishitang."
Manbao: "..." I understood that he was using this as an excuse to seek qualifications for himself.
"Don't you have Doctor Zheng in your family?"
However, the shopkeeper Zheng said, "But in this matter, Lord Zhou's words are more effective than those of Imperial Physician Zheng. If Lord Zhou is willing to stand on our side, then the qualifications of Jishitang will be secure."
