Chapter 334
In October of the 11th year of Wanli, the capital.
Luhua dark scroll, the Forbidden City is full of gold.
Beside the Taiye Pool, the forest is also full of dyes.
And in the dense forest by the Taiye Pool, Zhu Yijun, who was taking a walk, glanced at the Kinney Cream presented by Li Shizhen.
Cinchona cream, also known as quinine, is a medicine that Zhu Yijun ordered the inner court pharmacist to extract from the cinchona tree obtained from overseas by Jin Xuezeng, the governor of Fujian, and Liu Bin, the governor of Fujian Province, and lime.
This drug has a miraculous effect on the treatment of falciparum malaria prevalent in tropical areas.
"Is it urgently delivered to Yunnan and Guangdong?"
After Zhu Yijun glanced at it, he asked about Li Shizhen.
Li Shizhen replied: "I sent it, and according to the emperor's order, let their accompanying medical officer use it in conjunction with the cold and heat malaria prescriptions in "Elbow Reserve Emergency Prescriptions."
Zhu Yijun nodded after hearing this.
The main ingredient in the treatment of malaria in "Elbow Reserve Emergency Prescription" is artemisinin, which is the experience of Chinese civilization in the treatment of malaria.
Cinchona cream was originally a treatment method summed up by the Indian civilization suffering from malaria for a long time in a tropical environment.
However, both of them will develop drug resistance after a long time of use, and they will have miraculous effects on different malaria. Therefore, Zhu Yijun asked Li Shizhen to remind the military medical officer to remember to use them together.
"How did you discuss with the cabinet about the establishment of a medical department and the reform of the medical registration system in Taitai Hospital?"
At this time, Zhu Yijun suddenly asked Li Shizhen about something else.
Li Shizhen replied: "As His Majesty has decreed in the past, the transformation of the medical registration system into the medical doctor system is as follows: first, non-medical citizens and clan children are allowed to practice medicine; The third is that doctors and civil and military students enjoy imperial granary food. According to the medical level, they can enjoy granary food ranging from three to six dou a month. Government funds such as codes and research and development of new drugs."
"That's good."
"But don't impose restrictions on doctors who have not obtained medical qualifications, and simply treat them as quack doctors and cults!"
Zhu Yijun said to Zhang Hong: "Tell my words to the cabinet."
Reforming the medical system of the Ming Dynasty was something that Zhu Yijun had been doing for a long time, starting when he asked Li Shizhen to set up a medical clinic to train orphans sent by the imperial court to become doctors.
What Daming lacks most is people.
Therefore, Zhu Yijun gave Li Shizhen a lot of orphans for him to train and screen. Up to now, he has screened out a few good doctor seedlings, who are arranged to be medical officers, serve in the army or the court, and open government-run medical clinics in various places.
Most of the orphans who were trained only became ordinary doctors and nurses, responsible for doing chores for these people and continuing their studies at the same time.
"I asked you to use the microscope I gave you to observe the puddles and observe how well?"
Zhu Yijun suddenly asked Li Shizhen about something else.
Li Shizhen couldn't hide her excitement, and hurriedly replied: "I'm quite shocked! Presumably, the disease caused by raw water is caused by tiny things that can only be seen with a microscope, not just caused by evil spirits."
Zhu Yijun smiled slightly: "Observe more, I will give you the book of my observation and summary for your reference, and you can summarize it yourself, and try to find out the characteristics and possible pathogenic mechanisms of these tiny microorganisms, which may be beneficial to the development of medicine in this dynasty. .”
Li Shizhen clapped his hands and said yes.
In addition to food production and technological level, what affects the survival and expansion of a civilization is the ability to adapt to bacteria.
A plague directly wiped out the civilization of the European Middle Ages.
Smallpox also made Indians even more vulnerable to European invasion.
If Ming wants to solve the problem of increasing population through external expansion, the understanding of hygiene must also be improved, at least knowing the existence of bacteria.
In history, because of the severe impact of the plague, the northern economy collapsed rapidly. Therefore, the Chongzhen Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, which could not quickly solve the internal and external troubles, because of the epidemic of the northern plague, Wu Ke, a famous doctor at that time, began to suffer from the infection of viruses and bacteria. Preliminary understanding, and therefore wrote "Warm and Epidemic Theory", prevented the plague from having a greater impact in the following early Qing Dynasty.
Therefore, Zhu Yijun did not dare to ignore the impact of bacteria and viruses on national strategy.
In the golden autumn season, it is the time when the red leaves are in full bloom.
The Ming Empire is gathering troops to exterminate Burma in the south, and is gradually turning Dongying into the land of Han civilization in the east. It is also building a large number of Guantai and post roads for observation in the north.
But these are implemented by the bureaucrats below.
On the contrary, after setting the tone and national policy, he, the emperor, has nothing to do. He can only play his role as an emperor in small matters such as making golden chicken cream and improving the understanding of germs among the imperial medical staff.
However, this is not the result Zhu Yijun wanted.
After all, the country is not his stage alone.
It is also impossible for him to do everything by himself, or even interfere with where a new vehicle gun made by the Ordnance Bureau should be placed.
Not to mention.
He really wants to command the army himself, and even conspire with the local gentry and tyrants to coordinate them and their clans to be on the same level with each other in military and state affairs. He may not be as good as the civil and military officials of this era, and of course it is not necessary .
If the bureaucrats can't do a good job, they can be replaced.
If the emperor made a mistake, he couldn't change him, right?
Zhu Yijun began to set the tone after Zhang Juzheng's death, showing his own attitude to the bureaucrats, seeing the end of not getting close to the cliff and even secretly making troubles such as Xu Jie and Zhang Siwei, and seeing the end of Zhang Juzheng and other reformist civil servants after seeking the country. It is to let the bureaucrats in the world know that although the Lord is above the Nine Heavens, he does not know who is a loyal minister, and he also knows what the world should be like.
As for myself, as an official, if I want to be a supreme minister, I have to make some achievements.
It can be said that Zhu Yijun did all this for today, so that the bureaucrats and people who make up this country can operate according to his vision.
Now his goal is basically achieved.
His bureaucrats didn't disappoint him either.
Such as Wang Xijue.
According to Wang Xijue's memorabilia sent back to Beijing after his tour of the sea trade, Zhu Yijun knew that Wang Xijue obviously negotiated very harmoniously with the Guangdong bureaucrats and gentry in Guangzhou, and in the end there was indeed no case of being assassinated by local forces.
Moreover, after discussing with these Guangdong bureaucrats and gentry, Wang Xijue also asked the imperial court to adjust the tax rules of the Guangdong Shipping Department in his memorial. Ship cargo charges an average of [-] to [-] tariffs.
This can be said to be much higher than the previous customs duties of the Guangdong Shipbuilding Division!
Of course, this is nothing compared to the business interests of coming to Haojing and Guangzhou from India and going to Japan from Haojing and Guangzhou.
You must know that in this era, the trade line from India to Daming Guangdong, and then from Daming Guangdong to Japan is one of the most profitable trade lines, and the profit of most goods is more than [-]%.
Zhu Yijun was very satisfied with this. He not only saw Wang Xijue's ability, but also achieved the goal of rectifying Guangdong's maritime trade and dealing with the invasion of foreign barbarians in Haojing.
Therefore, Zhu Yijun also conferred the title of Wang Xijue Shao Fu for his contribution to pacifying the invasion of the Western Barbarians, and was promoted to the title of Wenyuange University Bachelor, while Yin Yizi was the Imperial Son Supervisor, and the rest of the civil servants and military generals who participated in this matter were also awarded.
Even the first assistant Shen Shixing also added Zuo Zhuguo because of his strong efforts in recommending Wang Xijue.
Because sending Wang Xijue to Guangdong was arranged by Shen Shihang.
Zhu Yijun didn't seem to be a very useful emperor from the beginning to the end, but he just trusted and rewarded Shi En, and he didn't even choose who to be in charge of something.
But isn't this what Zhang Juzheng really wanted to achieve after ten years of hard work and his willingness to destroy the three clans to keep Zhang Juzheng's remaining party?
