Doctors in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 109 The water is deep

Unknowingly, the time had already reached noon, and Zhang Jiebin and the two felt that something was wrong. Chen Jisheng must not have found them. This was a mistake, and they didn't know what impact it would have on the following events.

The two of them looked at each other and couldn't help but smile bitterly. They originally planned to just visit casually, but who would have thought that this culture would turn out to be so unique, with so many masterpieces coming out so amazingly that it was overwhelming and time would pass by unknowingly.

This kind of high-level literary society will be of great help to the literary world of the Ming Dynasty, but at this critical moment when the epidemic is imminent, as the core figure in purchasing medicinal materials, it is inevitable to sacrifice the good and the bad.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jiebin quickly stood up and bowed his hands: "It's been a long time since I attended a cultural gathering. I didn't expect it to be so exciting. It's like a woodcutter watching chess, unaware of the passage of time. It's just that this time my brothers are here to purchase medicinal materials."

To prepare for the epidemic, I won’t disturb everyone’s leisurely enjoyment, and I will visit you later to bother you.”

Li Yingshi also bowed his hands and saluted. The two were about to leave when Wang Rumei shouted: "Wait a minute!"

"Please stay!" Feng Congwu also urged him to stay.

Zhang Jiebin and Li Yingshi stopped when they heard this and looked at the two of them doubtfully.

Feng Congwu took a step back and let Wang Rumei speak first. Wang Rumei was not polite and said: "I came here this time, firstly, to answer Liu Zhizhou's request, and secondly, to sit in Qizhou and try my best to coordinate drug rescue for epidemic areas. Xiang

Please meet by chance. Since we met today, I will help you a little."

Zhang Jiebin was overjoyed when he heard this. He had stayed in Liaodong for five years and had always paid attention to the other towns on the Jiubian border. After all, the Jiubian border defense was an integral part of the border defense and was indispensable. Naturally, he had heard the name of Wang Rumei, the former governor of Yansui.

In the tenth year of Wanli, the severe drought in Suizhou and active disaster relief not only saved the lives of tens of thousands of people, but also eliminated the great epidemic after the disaster. Such skills and abilities were first-rate in the Ming Dynasty. With him in charge of Qizhou, why worry about insufficient medicine?
Feng Congwu also said: "We came from Xi'an to prepare medicine. They were originally from Yuzhou, and they were studying in Guanzhong. They saw the outbreak of the epidemic and the lack of medical treatment and medicine in various places. They invited us to go to Yuzhou to buy medicine. On the way, we met Shanxi businessmen.

Team, the shopkeeper suggested that we come to Qizhou, saying that the medicines here are more complete."

"You also know what happened next. In order to open up the situation, we issued a challenge to Zhenwen Academy and Qizhou Confucianism. We also planned to make friends through literature and get to know each other so that we can get help. Previously, the two brothers reported themselves to each other, so I

I wanted to cooperate with you, but I just started the cultural conference and thought about it after it was over. I didn’t expect you to leave now. How could I just watch you leave?”

As soon as Feng Congwu said this, all the local scholars in Qizhou laughed and cursed.

"Okay, we are just like weak persimmons when we co-write. If anyone wants to come, just pinch it!"

"I have never seen such a shameless person, but I like it, haha!"

"Looking to us for medicinal materials is half the battle. As for the other side, you still have to find external pharmacists. After all, we in Qizhou only produce dozens of bulk medicinal materials."

"Sigh, don't put too much pressure on yourself. I have a saying, 90% of our Qizhou Pharmacy Market is in the hands of drug dealers from other places. It's annoying to say that the Qizhou Pharmacy Shops are too bad."

"Hey, don't talk about Qizhou medicine merchants. You Qizhou scholars are not up to par. I heard from our seniors that it is rare to meet a few students from Qizhou in the provincial examination, and it is even rarer to see Qizhou's name on the list. All of them are dignified.

The state schools are not as good as the counties below us, and no one else is."

"You don't slap people in the face, you don't expose their shortcomings when you scold them. If you have the guts, you can row them out of Qizhou! If you can't row them out, what's yours is mine, and what's mine is mine. What can you do to me?"

……

As he talked, the local scholars in Qizhou started fighting, and the students from the state and the county began to fight. Although the number of students, candidates, and scholars in Shulu County was three or four times that of Qizhou, this place was Qizhou after all.

City.

Firstly, there are many people who study in the county Confucian school and have not come to study in the prefectural Confucian school; secondly, although there are more Shulu students in the prefectural Confucian school than in the prefectural city, they all come to study after all, seizing the quota in the prefectural city and eating people.

Although soft-spoken and short-handed, most people are self-aware and do not participate in the war.

Every one of them was either looking at the sky or looking down at the ground, as if they didn't notice the melee between the two sides. As a result, Shu Lusheng who participated in the battle was completely defeated, and all Zhousheng raised their heads and held their chests high, as if they were arrogant.

Everyone is just watching the fun, the county is better than the state, and the county is better than the government. It is not uncommon in the country.

Zhang Jiebin said with some confusion: "Are there many cases where the bottom beats the top?"

"It's very common." Feng Congwu said.

"I thought every place was like Shanyin, where government officials accounted for 60% of the imperial examination candidates." Zhang Jiebin couldn't help but clicked his tongue.

"Shanyin and Kuaiji have been a place of prosperity for culture and education since ancient times, and they cannot be compared to the same place."

Zhang Jiebin nodded. He knew that there were more Jinshi in one county in Shanyin than in Baoding. There were several times as many celebrities in Shanyin as there were in Baoding. This is the foundation of Jiangnan. If the northern and southern divisions were not implemented, there would be a huge gap in the number of Jinshi.

It may expand tenfold.

After everyone had finished venting, Wang Rumei said with a smile: "Know your shame and then be brave. Arguing will not lead to results. If you are not convinced, you will see the truth in the examination room."

The students in Qizhou were all stunned one after another. They really couldn't show their true results in the examination room. In more than 70 provincial examinations over 200 years, they all failed miserably. How can they come back so easily?

What they don't know is that in the late Ming Dynasty, although the number of Jinshi did not increase, Qizhou's literary style improved with the combined efforts of state Confucianism, Zhenwen Academy, Confucian Temple and Wenchang Palace. In particular, Zhenwen Academy hired a great Confucian to run the academy, and Qizhou's literary style

The situation of sluggish culture and education has really been changed.

This treasure place was once home to the King of Medicine, the home of talented scholars from Qu Shengguan and Hanqing, and the place where Zhang Zai once lectured and preached. Hundreds of years later, after the prosperity of King Yao’s temple fair, literature and art also recovered for a time.

During the Qing Dynasty, the number of people who passed the imperial examination in Qizhou surpassed that of Shulu County. However, Shulu County had been separated from Qizhou by that time, and all the quotas for state students were given to Qizhou.

Zhang Jiebin stayed and asked Li Yingzhi to go to the state medical department to visit the Diagnostic Department first. After chatting with everyone for a while, Zhang Jiebin talked about what he had thought about last night

Wang Rumei couldn't help but nod. Seeing Zhang Jiebin stop, she frowned and asked, "Is there more?"

Zhang Jiebin shook his head.

"Well, your thinking is quite complete, but you have overlooked a few points. Some of the medicines you need are produced in Qizhou. Aren't you going to contact the medicine farmers? We also have to visit the villages where the medicine farmers are located. The imperial power does not

Even if you go to the countryside, the magistrate will not be able to control the village."

"You have considered the merchant gang in Qizhou, but as far as I know, this is only a part of the gang. In addition, there are various gangs, grocery stores, inns and catering shops, tile and masonry shops, blacksmith shops, and butcher shops.

, there are also Beggars Gang, Three Emperors Society, etc."

"The secular forces of Buddhism and Taoism should not be underestimated. Among them, the Great Buddhism and Jingtian Dao are the leaders. There are more than 20 Taoist and Daoist sects, and the White Lotus Sect is also hidden among them. They are always conspiring to incite rebellion. They are like a cancer that must be eliminated and then quickly

."

"I won't talk about these. I'll just talk about medicine shops, which are divided into raw medicine shops, cooked medicine shops, traffickers, film sheds, unpacking sheds, Peking University and Nanda. If you are not familiar with them, you won't be able to get anything done."
