After the imperial edict was issued, the whole Pengcheng was in an uproar. Then, the notices posted by Huimin Medical Bureau and Gushengtang made the people of Xuzhou go crazy.

"In compliance with the Emperor's decree, the medical examination will be held from October 1st to October 29th, and the examination venue will be Gushengtang Pengcheng Medical Clinic. During this period, no examination fee will be charged to candidates. Each candidate can see 20 patients a day. If there is a need, everyone can go for a consultation, regardless of age or gender! Announcement from the Xuzhou Branch of Huimin Medical Bureau"

As soon as the person reading the notice stopped, the people watching began to talk about it.

"You can save twenty cents for the consultation fee. You can go and have a look!"

"But what my family lacks is not twenty cents, but the money to buy medicine later!"

"Saving twenty cents is good. If there is really a problem, these twenty cents can buy another dose of medicine!"

"That's right!"

Apart from the candidates, the only people who focus on the medical examination news are the poor people. Their daily lives are very difficult, and most of them are troubled by various diseases. However, due to the limitations of their family's economic conditions, they cannot seek medical treatment in time and can only endure the torture of the disease.

For these poor people, the medical examination is a rare opportunity for them. They all want to take this opportunity to see a doctor and relieve their physical discomfort. Usually, they endure physical discomfort, but now that they have a rare opportunity, they must go.

"Look, look, there's another announcement!"

"It's from the Imperial Medical Bureau!"

"Read it quickly, what does it mean!"

The people were very anxious and urged the person standing next to the notice board to read the imperial edict. This person was a clerk in the prefecture. Today was the day for posting notices. His job today was to stand under the notice board, read the contents of the notice to the people, and answer their questions.

(Because most people in ancient times were illiterate and could not read, the government would usually arrange for someone to explain it here, striving to make all the people understand the policies issued by the emperor)

"The emperor loves the people like his own children and cares about the common people. Now is the right time for the medical examination. Under the order of the emperor, Yigu, Gushengtang, Hua's Shop, and Xu's Shop will take the lead. Those who are treated by the candidates for the medical examination can get medicine for free! The time is from October 1st to October 29th! The Imperial Medical Bureau will announce it!"

"The meaning is very clear. The emperor is benevolent and always pays attention to the health and well-being of the people. In order to better solve the problem of the difficulty and high cost of medical treatment for the people, the emperor allocated one million taels from the national treasury to Pengcheng. Four herbal medicine shops, including Yigu, Gushengtang, Huajia Commercial House, and Xujia Commercial House, provided medicinal materials to provide free medical consultations for the people, and they can also get free medicine and free medical treatment."

"There are also requirements for the people who see the doctor. They must be good citizens and have enough rice in their homes. Not everyone can see the doctor for free. We want to avoid those who are greedy for small gains!"

These requirements ensure that medical resources can be reasonably allocated to those who need them most. After all, doctors have limited time and energy. If they treat everyone who comes to see a doctor indiscriminately, it is likely that those who really need help will not receive timely treatment, while those who just want to take advantage will waste precious medical resources.

After hearing the latest announcement, the people were all excited.

Then he immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "The emperor's grace is great, and the people are blessed. Long live the emperor!"

"The emperor's grace is immense, and it is a blessing to the people. Long live the emperor!"

Immediately afterwards, Lord Lu brought people from the state government to start registering and filing. Anyone who wanted to see a doctor for free had to register one by one, and then they would arrange for constables to come to their homes to confirm that there were indeed no problems before they could go for treatment.

On the first day of the assessment, Yinuo got up early and washed, but when she arrived at Gusheng Hall, she found that the door was already crowded. Even though it was just dawn today, the people had lined up early. It seemed that they had started waiting here yesterday.

Yinuo recalled Teng Ke's evaluation of the emperor: the emperor was a kind-hearted person, and although he was somewhat biased in treating their Dingguo Mansion, he was indeed a good emperor who was dedicated to the people.

It is indeed a major positive thing to be able to use this medical examination to improve the country's medical level and provide medical treatment for poor people. The emperor is indeed a good emperor. However, how this matter can be implemented is really worrying.

After all, the improvement of medical standards is not achieved overnight, it requires long-term efforts and continuous investment. I hope that the emperor can be determined and not be overwhelmed by difficulties and obstacles, and truly implement this good thing so that the poor people in the world can be treated.

"Nono, come in quickly, leave this to me."

Teng Ke lovingly tidied up the hair on Yinuo's forehead and really wanted to give her a kiss, but with so many people here, he couldn't do such reckless actions, so as not to affect Yinuo's future reputation.

He received the arrangement yesterday that he and Captain Feng would assist the Huimin Medical Bureau in maintaining order in Gushengtang and Pengcheng during the medical examination period.

Captain Feng led his men to guard the city gates, screening and registering everyone who entered and left the city gates this month to prevent riots. Teng Ke's task was to patrol the city, mainly the streets near Gusheng Hall and the street where the medical clinic was located, to maintain order in the city.

Zhou Tian, ​​Li Min, Liu Yong and others were also arranged to serve here for a month. Li Min was a captain of a thousand households. He personally led a team to follow Captain Feng to guard the city gate. Liu Yong was also a captain of a thousand households. He took Zhou Tian to maintain order at the gate of Gusheng Hall and assist Teng Ke.

Liu Yong and Zhou Tian saw Teng Ke and his wife and hurried over to greet them: "Colonel Teng, Madam Yi!"

Yinuo hasn't seen them for a long time. This is the first time they have seen each other since the last housewarming party.

She greeted the two of them openly: "Captain Liu, Captain Zhou, I haven't seen you for a long time. I wonder if you are doing well at home!"

Huqin talked to Zhou Tian about Yinuo's kindness every day, saying that if Yinuo hadn't asked her to help make masks, their family wouldn't have had so much income. Zhou Tian also felt that his family had become much richer, as he could tell from the meals he ate every day. Now he had white rice every day and meat every two days.

He was also very grateful and quickly replied, "Everything is fine. My wife misses you every day, saying that she hasn't seen you for a long time. I wonder if Madam Yi is well."

Yinuo thought of Huqin's cheerful personality and couldn't help laughing: "Everything is fine, thank you for remembering me!"

"Please tell Captain Zhou and Madam Hu that I still need her to help with my small workshop. The work cannot stop. I will go find her to arrange the follow-up matters after my assessment is over!"

We can’t rush the issue of masks. We need an opportunity to promote them.

Gushengtang has started using masks and alcohol today. The original doctors have already been trained and they all know how to use them. The intern doctors should also have received corresponding training today.

Doctor Gu and Judge Liu plan to pilot the program at Gushengtang this month, and then promote it nationwide through the Imperial Medical Bureau after the medical examination is over.

Zhou Tian didn't expect Yinuo to be so humble and polite, and he quickly saluted her with a fist: "I will definitely bring it to you, Madam Yi, please rest assured!"

Without waiting for Yinuo to speak, Teng Ke told the two to quickly patrol behind the team, not wanting them to disturb his world of two. After they left, he reluctantly sent Yinuo into Gusheng Hall.
