Chapter 149: Jiangnan Hospital

A great project destined to go down in history began.

Just as war is never just about soldiers fighting on the battlefield, this huge project requires the joint efforts of all parties to complete.

The center of the entire project is still in Nanshan Temple, but the single engineering headquarters in the temple has become several departments.

At the core is the flood control command center composed of Zhao Shouzheng, Pan Jitao, He Wenwei, Xiong Xiasheng, Zheng Ruozeng and others.

The command center is the decision-making body of Kunshan County's flood control and is responsible for the entire project.

Including the formulation and modification of design drawings, the issuance of construction tasks, the arrangement of construction periods and the supervision of project quality, all of which are uniformly responsible for the center.

In addition, in the east side hall of the temple, there is a Kunshan Development Company. All the construction tasks assigned by the center are assigned and executed by Kunkaisi.

In the west side hall, Jiang Xueying, vice chairman of Jiangnan Investment Company and the owner of Wu Ji Shao, is personally in charge of deploying materials and support.

A large project in which almost the whole county participates, the materials required are very terrifying, and the deployment is even more nightmarish.

There were 50,000 people on the embankment sweating like rain, and Kunkaisi also arranged for 10,000 people to go to Xishan to assist in quarrying. The daily food rations for 60,000 people in these two places must be guaranteed.

In addition, there are about the same number of elderly women, children, and half-grown children, who are weaving baskets and ropes to make sacks, and rowing boats to sift sand for the construction of the embankment, providing the same very important labor, and the food of these people must also be guaranteed.

The food supply of hundreds of thousands of people in such a scattered manner is simply worrying for the quartermaster.

And Zhao Shouzheng also gave a death order, not only to let everyone be fed, but also to eat well, and to let their family also be fed.

Does Second Master Zhao's order make sense? Yes.

Because from another point of view, in fact, the people of the whole county are not receiving wages and working for the Kunshan Development Company in vain. If you still deduct food from food, is that still a human being?

But in this way, the logistical pressure has increased a lot.

To this end, Jiang Xueying, through the strength of Wu Ji and Dongting Chamber of Commerce, purchased grain, non-perishable vegetables and pickled and air-dried meat in Suzhou Prefecture, and also directly purchased salt from Yangzhou at cost price, which was continuously transported back, and then distributed in an orderly manner to fill the stomachs of more than 100,000 people.

In addition, she also placed orders with blacksmith shops throughout Suzhou and even Changzhou, Zhenjiang, Nanjing and other places, and customized tools and consumables such as hammers, iron drills, iron picks, and iron nails in unlimited quantities.

In order to ensure the quality of the tools, Jiang Xueying directly sent people to Wuhu County, Taiping Province, to purchase a large number of susan wrought iron...... And so on and so forth.

There are many complicated things. Jiang Xueying can sort out in an orderly manner, not only does it never go wrong, but it can also save materials to the greatest extent, so that the inventory is always hovering between being out of stock and being slightly rich.

This made Liu Zhengqi, who gave her a hand, sigh to herself, and said in her heart that it was really the back waves of the Yangtze River that pushed the front waves, and the waves were higher than the waves.

Yes, although the alarm has been lifted, Liu Yuanwai stayed in Kunshan to help, even if he was willing to give a little girl a hand.

I don't know what he's trying to do?

~~

In the front hall of Nanshan Temple, there is also an 'Engineering Security Department', which is responsible for Xiong Dianshi and Zheng Inspection.

The two of them led the county's archers, shoppers, and post guards, adding up to more than 100 people, and it was really a lot of pressure to manage the security of the 60-mile embankment and the 120 water transportation lines.

Fortunately, the guard work on Xishan Island is in charge of the gunman battalion directly under the magistrate, and they don't need to worry about it.

In addition, on the bank of the Xiaoli River, which is two miles away from Nanshan Temple, a new 'Jiangnan Hospital' covering an area of 100 acres has been built to provide medical services for more than 100,000 men, women and children who participated in the construction of the embankment.

Jiangnan Hospital is a new construction in the true sense of the word - the ten boats of building materials that Zhao Hao brought from Xishan were used to build this hospital.

In addition to the cement brick houses, which are very different from traditional wooden buildings, Jiangnan Hospital also has cement floors that are easy to flush and strictly separate water supply, drainage and sewerage systems.

There is even a boiler room with hot water all day and an alcohol room dedicated to distilling spirits!

In addition, there are departments such as surgery, internal medicine, and orthopedics, which is the busiest department, as well as an infectious disease department for the treatment of patients with infectious diseases, and a special epidemic prevention department.

Under Zhao Hao's repeated pleas, Mr. Wan Mizhai served as the president of the hospital and the director of internal medicine.

Li Shizhen is the vice president and director of the epidemic prevention department.

Zhao Hao also invited Li Yuanming, a famous doctor in Nantong Prefecture, to serve as the director of surgery and director of orthopedics through Yangzhou salt merchants.

The doctors of the hospital were served by three students of famous doctors, and as for the medical officers of the original county medicine, they were only assigned to the students of three major medical students.

In fact, the reason why the three famous doctors in the world are willing to succumb to this small Jiangnan Hospital is not how attractive the conditions prescribed by Zhao Hao are.

With their fame and strength, they can earn unimaginable wealth by practicing medicine.

In later memoirs, they all insisted that they were deeply attracted by the bright prospects portrayed by Zhao Gongzi......

The truth is that they lost the bet.

~~

Many years later, Li Shizhen still remembers the day after he and Wan Mizhai came to Kunshan.

That is, on the afternoon of the mobilization meeting, after the two and Li Yuanming visited the just-completed Jiangnan Hospital, they listened to Zhao Hao talk about the causes of schistosomiasis in the epidemic prevention clinic that still smelled of cement.

Yes, three famous doctors in the world were listening to a hairy boy layman talk about the cause.

How ridiculous it is, how ridiculous it is.

At first, they themselves thought it was ridiculous, especially when they saw Zhao Hao wearing a mask and gloves made of Eucommia ulmoides rubber, picking up a snail from a glassware like a great enemy, and then telling them that this thing was infected with schistosomiasis.

Wan Mizhai smiled politely and helplessly. The old man is always tolerant of young people, and Zhao Hao's hospital is very innovative, which gives the old man a lot of inspiration.

Li Yuanming shook his head, if it weren't for Zhao Gongzi's too much, he would have left directly.

Li Shizhen was expressionless, and wrote all the disbelief on his face.

But he didn't plan to leave, as long as someone could fund him to complete and publish the "Compendium of Materia Medica", let alone that the person announced that "snails infected schistosomiasis", that is, "people become monkeys", he doesn't care.

"What Zhao Gongzi means is that if you eat a snail, you will get a big belly?" Li Yuanming asked with a smile.

"It's not because I ate a snail and got a big belly, but because the snail has a larvae parasitic with schistosomes!" Zhao Hao was wearing a big mask, but from those squinted eyes, he could see that he was smiling.

"The snail is the only intermediate host for schistosome. So as long as you get rid of the snails, you can get rid of the big belly! ”

"It seems that Childe believes in this statement." Li Yuanming couldn't help but smile when he heard what he said: "But no one can see what that Gu worm looked like when it was young." You can't prove your guesses, can you? ”

"Of course I can prove it." Zhao Gongzi smiled faintly, and then snapped his fingers.

Zhao Shizhen walked into the consultation room with a wooden box.

ps. Lay down and got up again to finish this chapter, what kind of responsibility is this! Ask for a monthly pass!!
