Without waiting for Xiaomei to answer, Yuan Fang had an answer, what kind of place is the palace, all the buildings are grand and solemn, what would it look like if a boiler room came out on the roof? The scenery is bad, and besides, although burning coal saves money, it is not a matter of black smoke billowing everywhere in the palace, which is unsightly, for an empire, even if it is short of money, it is not bad for this little money.

Xiao Mei smiled and called the accompanying eunuch who was guarding the door, and asked him to go back to the palace immediately to get some coke, and the little eunuch was ordered to go back to do it immediately.

Yuan Fang smiled: "It's okay now, there is a lot of coke money left." ”

Xiaomei glanced at Yuan Fang: "Brother, you are still so stingy." ”

Yuan Fang shrugged: "Otherwise, what should I do, by the way, you have time to ask Yang Xing, I haven't received a penny of military salary until now, such a big brother's mansion, I will have to pay for it myself in the future, you ask him to pay me quickly, otherwise your brother and I will have to go to the street to ask for food." ”

Xiaomei sneered: "How can it be as serious as you say, don't worry, Yang Xing told me about this, and he plans to surprise you." ”

Sang Rou came out of the kitchen: "It's time to eat, wash your hands and eat." ”

Yuan Fang, Xiaomei and Yu Fengjiao lined up to wash their hands and came to the dining room, there were five or six dishes and a few plates of freshly heated steamed buns on the table, Yuan Fang sat down and stretched his neck to look at it, and said depressedly: "So vegetarian? There's no meat at all. ”

Sang Rou put a big bowl of tofu soup on the table, spread her hands and said, "I've been busy all day, I don't have time to buy vegetables, and the barracks haven't prepared anything, that's all." ”

Xiaomei didn't mind at all, grabbed a steamed bun and took a bite of it, put a chopstick and shredded potatoes into her mouth, and said vaguely while chewing: "Well, it's delicious, no worse than the craftsmanship of the imperial chef." ”

Yuyue served Xiaomei a bowl of soup: "Don't worry, eat slowly, don't choke." ”

Shredded potatoes, fried cabbage, dried tofu, radish strips, bean sprouts, although they were a little vegetarian, they tasted really good, and Yuan Fang ate five steamed buns in one go before putting down the chopsticks.

Sang Rou has been busy cooking, and the last one came over, and before she finished eating, she saw that Yuan Fang and they were all full, and said, "You guys go to the living room to rest first, I'll clean up after eating." ”

Yuzuki put down the dishes and chopsticks and ran to the kitchen: "I'll make you tea." ”

Xiaomei looked at the already dark sky and hurriedly said, "Don't bother, I have to go back, Sister Fengjiao, do you want to stay or go back with me?" Yu Fengjiao wanted to stay and talk to Yuan Fang about the military hospital, but she didn't worry about Xiaomei, for fear that something would happen on the road, so she had to go back to the palace with her.

Sending Xiaomei and Yu Fengjiao away, Yuan Fang Xia Yi and the others continued to be busy cleaning, and Yuan Fang leaned on the sofa alone to close and meditate, taking stock of the things that needed to be dealt with next.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and after a period of time the land freeze will become very hard, not suitable for construction, and large-scale renovation can be put aside for the time being, but it can still be done by promising Xiaomei to only rebuild her dormitory, and this will be done with Damei and Xin Huilan, and I believe it will not take long to complete.

In addition, it is a military hospital, with the current progress, it will be completed in two months at most, then the next step is to determine the candidate for the external outpatient clinic, this is the first major move since the establishment of the military hospital, we must make every effort to open up the medical market, improve the prestige of the military hospital.

Yuan Fang already has a general idea, Dr. Ye is experienced, has enough prestige, and is the best candidate for the chief of the military doctor, and then Qin Cao, who is in charge of surgery, and Yang Xiao, who has served as a military doctor for many years, has his own set of trauma and orthopedics, so that he is temporarily in charge of the orthopedic outpatient clinic, Chen Guang, who has practiced medicine for many years, has a lot of experience in internal medicine, and can be competent in internal medicine, Lu Ling, gender relations and the direction of her recent research, in charge of gynecology, as for pediatrics and miscellaneous, Yuan Fang did not have a suitable candidate for a while.

In fact, with Xiao Lu's gentle personality, she could try pediatrics, but Yuan Fang was a little worried that Xiao Lu was inexperienced, and she had not been involved in pediatric patients before, so Yuan Fang decided that it would be better to find someone else.

With Dr. Ye, the chief of military medical care, and Qin Cao, the chief of military medicine, the overall framework is there, and the rest is the arrangement of military medical officers and military doctors, as well as nursing and medical workers, Yuan Fang does not plan to participate in these things, and directly hand them over to Lu Ling and Xiaolu to deal with, to be honest, Yuan Fang really doesn't know how to assign them, he, the first director of the military hospital, is quite disrespectful, for so long, how many fixed military doctors and nursing in the military hospital are just a smear, not to mention the good at these military doctors, thinking about this, Yuan Fang couldn't help but blush.

In addition to the reconstruction and military hospital, there are also many miscellaneous things, such as Luo Siping and Ren Fei in the dark night are now lurking in Anping County of the Ningyuan Empire and Duchun County of the Yuanhe Empire to collect intelligence, develop underground forces to cooperate with future military operations, Yuan Fang must provide all the material and financial resources they need as much as possible, and the development direction of the Plum Blossom Chamber of Commerce also needs to be slightly adjusted to carry out cross-border trade, so as to earn more wealth and resource the needs of the empire.

There is also the development of new weapons in the military, such as the small crossbow that was used to deal with the hoplites on a whim some time ago, such as the hot air balloon that was handed over to Lin Mengsheng for research before the expedition, and the improvement of the siege tower, the most important of which is the preparation of naval warships.

In the past, the Eastern Sage Empire focused its military on the army and ignored the importance of the navy, so that the Liusang Empire repeatedly invaded the southern state of the empire, killing people and looting, but the empire had no way, and now, Yuan Fang and Yang Xing did not want to make the same mistake again, especially after learning that the Liusang Empire and the Yuanhe Empire and the Ningyuan Empire were colluding together, the defense force at sea must be replenished as soon as possible, and for the time being, it is not expected to be able to defeat the warships of the Liusang Empire at sea, but at least it is necessary to have a certain reconnaissance force to warn in advance.

Shipbuilding is not so simple, and if it costs a lot of money and just builds the kind of garbage that is not good in the past, whether it is defense, attack or speed, it is a loser, rather than encountering enemy ships and being easily sunk, it is better to do something else with the huge amount of gold coins, so Yuan Fang's idea is to either not do it, or to do it, it will be a blockbuster, and he also has a general idea, but it is not mature, and it needs to be discussed with some professionals to determine, of course, these are all on the basis of the empire's sufficient wealth, In the current situation, we can only build the shipyard framework first.

I really don't want to know, after summing it up, Yuan Fang's head is as big as a bucket, and there are so many things, even if he doesn't eat, drink or sleep, it is estimated that he may not be able to finish it in a few years.
