Although Song Ruoxue is young and this is her first time doing such a thing, she has money and the help of her family.
At first, the Song family thought that their daughter wasted money by doing such a thing, and warned her, "If you really want to do good deeds, you can give porridge to poor families. At least you can gain a good reputation. You don't have to do such thankless things."
Song Ruoxue didn't think of telling her family at first, but she went out every day, and saw that she had invested a lot of money and was about to use up her dowry. Song's mother was naturally anxious, so she tied up her daughter and took her to the restaurant to confront the man who cheated her.
Song Ruoxue had no choice but to explain after hearing this. "It's not me! It was the Queen who asked me to do this! The Queen also gave me enough banknotes! But since the Queen asked me to be the director, I can't just not spend a penny and expect to make a profit in the future, right?"
The Song family still looked unconvinced. The Queen, how could the Queen do such a thing? Song Ruoxue said, "If you don't believe me, I will ask Gu Shaohe to confront me. You should believe him."
The Song family is generally satisfied with their son-in-law Gu Shaohe. Although he grew up in the border area, he is, after all, the young master of a marquisate and has a noble family background. And because he grew up in the border area, he does not have many bad habits of other young masters.
Seeing Song Ruoxue bring him up, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, "Could it be true?"
Song Ruoxue said: "The banknotes that the Queen gave me are all here. Could they be fake?"
No matter how swindler you are, you won't give a lot of banknotes to others, right? As soon as she said this, the Song family believed it completely. Song Ruoxue also specifically reminded them, "The Queen wants to do a good thing that benefits the country and the people, but she is also afraid that other families will want to get involved and make money from this business. Now that I have told you, it has gone against the Queen's wishes. You must not tell others."
"Don't worry, we certainly know the priorities." Song Zhi nodded.
Song's mother on the side started to worry again, "This... since the queen didn't let you tell us, why did you tell us? If the queen knew about this in the future, would she blame us for deceiving the queen?"
Song Ruoxue frowned, "You can blame me, isn't it all because of you guys?"
Seeing his mother's worried look, Song Zhi could only speak to comfort her, "Don't worry, mother. Everyone here is our family. They won't be so heartless as to go up to her and say something like this."
Mother Song looked at Song Ruoxue worriedly, "It's hard to say. Isn't there one right in front of us... How can the Queen trust such an important matter to someone like her who is so extravagant? What if something goes wrong?"
Song Ruoxue rolled her eyes when she heard this and said, "Mother, if you hadn't stopped me like this today, I would have finished my work today long ago. Don't worry about it, I will definitely do it beautifully and not let you down!" After saying that, she squeezed out from the family.
Song's mother looked at her daughter with a worried look on her face, "Do you think we can intervene in this?" Song's mother was worried that her daughter might not do it well since it was her first time doing something like this.
Song Zhi on the side said: "We can't help with other big things, but we can always help with things like decoration or shopping."
"But will the Queen suspect that we know it?" Mother Song was still worried.
Song Zhi smiled and said, "Mom, you don't have to worry so much. The queen is just worried that if most people know that she is the one behind this, it will affect her original intention of doing this. But think about it, we won't tell anyone if we know about it, and Ruoxue won't be so stupid as to tell the queen. We help Ruoxue, help our own daughter, and if outsiders see it, they will at most say that our family spoils our daughter."
Song Zhi analyzed with his mother, "Let's not talk about whether it will work out or not. Even if it works out, Ruoxue will at most be branded as a loser. Although her reputation is not good, the Marquis' Mansion and the Empress know about it. It won't affect the marriage of the two children anyway. Our family can also keep a low profile in front of the Empress."
In short, no matter what, it will not harm the Song family... or at least the only bad thing may be that Song Ruoxue's dowry will be lost.
But for the Song family, money is the least important thing.
After listening to her son's detailed analysis, Song's mother also got some meaning and said, "It's not bad to hear you say that. But what if it happens?"
Song Zhi said: "This is a great thing that benefits the country and the people. Ruoxue will be recorded in history, and our Song family will only rise with her."
Song's mother smiled now, "So what you mean is that this girl did a good thing?"
Song Zhi nodded and looked at his mother again, "So, mother, don't casually say that Ruoxue can't accomplish anything in the future. Look at this girl, she has accomplished something big without making any noise."
"No more, no more, I will never say it again!"
——
Song Ruoxue was rich, and the Song family was secretly helping out, so things were soon settled.
All the furniture and decoration were almost ready. After a coat of paint and half a month when the smell had dissipated, Lin Mingzhu officially moved into the Mingzuo [Mingli Academy] academy. Behind Mingde College, a [Mingde Hospital] was established.
There was no such thing as a hospital at that time. Two hospitals were built, and when the three of them were deciding on the name, Shen Qingqiu finally decided on this name.
Although the name is novel, it is not difficult to guess. A passerby in a carriage saw this plaque and then smacked his head: "Medical... is it a courtyard for curing diseases and saving lives?"
It's almost the same.
This hospital has Lin Mingzhu, a local with superb medical skills, and Shen Qingqiu, who is well-versed in history and current affairs. She compiled all the knowledge about medicine and poison in her mind into a book, but these things that she has mastered are extremely obscure and difficult to understand when they are put on paper.
Even an expert like Lin Mingzhu was puzzled at first, but she knew the significance of this book to the people of today. Not to mention other more difficult things, the suturing technique alone was much more advanced than what she knew... When she was suturing for people now, all she could do was to remove the dirt after scalding with wine.
However, the medicine mentioned above can directly prevent various complications caused by wound infection.
Lin Mingzhu was so fascinated by the scene that she ignored Song Ruoxue's urging to open the door earlier. As the dean of the college, she had to understand all these things herself before she could teach them to the students who came here.
Fortunately, she had a natural talent for medicine, and it only took her half a month to finish reading this thick book. It was impossible to study it thoroughly in a short period of time, but after that, she naturally had plenty of time to study these things.
Soon, the school and the hospital opened with great fanfare.
Things like medical skills, although not of the lowest class, are not taken seriously by the officials and nobles. And the medical families each have their own heritage, so most of the people who come to seek medical treatment are poor students who just want to make a living. I learned that there is no tuition fee for the school, and the tuition fees can be replaced by work.
This was also a point Shen Qingqiu had thought of. Getting something for nothing would make people lazy, so he asked people to open up a large medicinal field in the back mountain, but medicinal fields originally lacked manpower to cultivate them.
Many people will understand after thinking about it. This is the same as being an apprentice in a clinic, except that when you are an apprentice, the doctor is still secretive and unwilling to teach you good things. Moreover, if you want to work in such an industry, you must have been practicing medicine for generations. Now that there is such an opportunity, most people cherish it.
In order to attract students and more famous and respected doctors to teach, Song Ruoxue also made a special trip to spread the name of Lin Mingzhu. Lin Mingzhu became famous at a young age and was known as a genius in medicine. Because of her, she naturally attracted many doctors, so this [Mingli College] was very lively.
Lin Mingzhu was an excellent doctor, and the medicinal field was originally cultivated by her family. So she treated the poor and basically only charged them for the cost.
Since every student is provided with medical consultations, it is not only to cure diseases and save lives, but also to teach, and basically no consultation fees are charged.
In a short time, Lin Mingzhu's reputation became better and better, and more and more people came to the school. However, this kind of thing always makes some people happy and some people worried.
After the people in the Chamber of Commerce learned that Lin Mingzhu had made a name for herself in the capital, they repeatedly asked Lin Mingzhu to join the Chamber of Commerce. Lin Mingzhu didn't understand this, so she asked Song Ruoxue. There were people in the Song family who were doing business. Song Ruoxue hurriedly shook her head, "What kind of Chamber of Commerce is this? They are just a bunch of parasites. They see that you can make money here, so they want to come to you. If you are asked to join the Chamber of Commerce, you will have to pay countless tributes." Of course, there are good Chambers of Commerce, but the one in the capital is notorious.
But they are very good at walking on the line and have not done many serious things so far.
However, Song Ruoxue was referring to an old case from the past, and said, "I remember there was a drug store in the past. The owner of that store made a kind of golden wound medicine that was not only cheap but also more effective than the golden wound medicine in the past. President Wang of the Chamber of Commerce was eager to bring people to join the Chamber of Commerce."
"Originally, the people in this Chamber of Commerce were all big players, and the boss was just the owner of a small medicine shop. He thought it was his luck and happily joined the Chamber of Commerce. But he didn't expect that as soon as he entered the Chamber of Commerce, President Wang changed his face and insisted that the owner hand over the prescription."
Lin Mingzhu naturally frowned when she heard this, "What happened next?"
Song Ruoxue sighed, "That family relies on this prescription for their livelihood, so of course they don't want to do it, but they joined the Chamber of Commerce, and the terms and conditions are written on it. The Chamber of Commerce used these terms and conditions to force this family to not open a store."
