Traveling through Du He, Li Chengqian's rebellion begins

While a group of important officials were busy planning for the position of Zhongshu Ling, Du He, Yu Chang and Sun Simiao were busy preparing for the Ministry of Medicine.

And after several days of preparation, they also finalized the structure of the Ministry of Medicine.

Ministry of Industry.

In the office of the Minister of Works.

"Whoo~"

Du He let out a long sigh.

"It's not easy!"

He looked at the pile of papers on the desk and looked extremely tired.

This was the first time that Du He had to use his brain so much since he became the Minister of Works, and he was unable to leave his post and go home early.

Although Sun Simiao is old, he still looks energetic and his face does not show much fatigue.

He looked at the final structure of the Medical Department in his hand and asked in a surprised tone.

"Mr. Du, does the Medical Department need to employ so many people?"

"And if we don't recruit apprentices this year, will that displease His Majesty?"

According to Du He's plan, the setup of the Medical Department is roughly the same as that of other departments.

In addition to one Langzhong and two Yuanwailang, there were also a small number of officials such as Lingshi, Jishi and Zhanggu.

However, Du He did not establish a chief position under the Yuanwailang, but instead set up 100 medical bachelors and 200 deputy medical bachelors.

According to Du He, these 100 medical bachelors will become the deans of the new medical school in the future.

The 200 associate medical graduates are the vice-presidents of the medical school.

Du He smiled and said, "Dr. Sun, the purpose of His Majesty establishing the Medical Department is to train more doctors."

“And the only way to train doctors is to open medical schools.”

"But who will manage the medical school after it is established? Who will teach the classes? Won't it rely on hundreds or thousands of bachelor's and associate degree graduates to be responsible?"

"So I think we should not rush to open a medical school, but first train all the bachelor's and associate's students."

The Medical Department is just starting out now, and even the dean of the medical school and the teachers have not been trained yet.

If Du He blindly opened a medical school to recruit apprentices, there would be only one result: teaching would be out of sync and apprentices would not be able to graduate quickly.

Some things cannot be rushed, and you cannot take too big a step.

Sun Simiao nodded in approval, then he frowned and asked.

"Mr. Du, our progress is so slow. When will we be able to train 10,000 doctors?"

"Will Your Majesty think that we are not doing our job well?"

Because Sun Simiao has been organizing teaching books for the past six months, what he is most concerned about now is teaching his apprentices in person.

But Du He now means that there is no rush to recruit apprentices, and he wants to train the teaching doctors first, which makes Sun Simiao a little anxious.

Du He's expression remained calm as he spoke in a comforting tone.

"Dr. Sun, if you want to do your job well, you must first sharpen your tools. Training medical bachelors and associates is the most urgent task."

"After they finish their studies, we will open medical schools in Luozhou, Taiyuan County, Qizhou, and Yangzhou. This way, we can quickly teach tens of millions of doctors!"

"A medical school can only teach a few hundred people a year at most, but a hundred medical schools can teach tens of thousands of people at least a year!"

The most important task for the Ministry of Medicine at present is to train medical bachelors and associate degrees first. With these basic talents, we can quickly grow bigger and stronger.

When Sun Simiao heard what Du He said, the doubts in his mind suddenly became clear.

Although Sun Simiao had great attainments in medical skills, he had never held an official position before, and all he thought about was the gains and losses in front of him.

As the Minister of Works, Du He considered the overall situation and long-term development.

Sun Simiao nodded and said, "Minister Du, I will obey your orders. I will do whatever you say!"

He found that he was not suited to thinking about the establishment of the Ministry of Medicine, and that it was simpler to study medical skills.

Originally, Du He didn't need to think much about these things, as an ordinary doctor could do the job clearly.

Unfortunately, Du He met Sun Simiao, a man who knew nothing about officialdom, and his adjutant Yu Chang also had no idea at all, so all these things fell on his head.

Du He stood up by supporting himself on the table, then spoke to Sun Simiao and Yu Chang.

"Doctor Sun, during this time, please complete the medical textbooks for your lectures. I will give them to the Secretary General for printing when the time comes."

"Minister Yu, I will first bring the structure of the Ministry of Medicine to your majesty for review. If there is no problem, we will start recruiting assistant ministers, medical bachelors, and associate bachelors."

After the preparations for the Ministry of Medicine were finalized, Sun Simiao was responsible for medical books and teaching, while Yu Chang was responsible for recruiting people to fill the Ministry of Medicine, and Du He was just a hands-off manager.

Otherwise, he, the Minister of Works, would have to do all the big and small things, so what would he need these subordinates for?

Yu Chang and Sun Simiao immediately stood up and saluted towards Du He with admiration.

"As ordered!"

They have basically not played a big role in the past few days. The preparation and development of the Ministry of Medicine were all done by Du He alone.

The two of them had originally recognized Du He's abilities, and after this incident, their admiration for Du He could be described as prostrating themselves.

Half an hour later.

Du He came to the Liang Yi Hall with a stack of information and stayed inside for more than an hour. He only walked out of the Liang Yi Hall when his saliva was almost dried.

Although Li Shimin did not put forward any personal ideas, he had more questions than Sun Simiao and Yu Chang.

Shortly after Du He walked out of the Liangyi Hall, a young voice suddenly came from the front.

“Meetings, Mr. Du!”

Du He looked up and found that the person coming was actually Prince of Jin Li Zhi. He immediately clasped his fists in return.

"See His Highness King Jin."

As the Minister of Works, he was nothing in front of Li Zhi, so Du He did not dare to put on airs in front of Li Zhi.

After all, Li Zhi is now one of Li Shimin's favorites, and the power of the Prince of Jin's Mansion behind him is also very powerful.

Until now, Du He still has no idea how many forces supporting Li Zhi are hiding behind the scenes.

Li Zhi waved his hand and said, "Minister Du, there is no need to be so polite. I will go to see my father first, and then I will go to the princess's mansion to meet my sister and my nephew Ping'an when I am free."

Du He smiled and clasped his fists, saying, "Your Highness is visiting the Princess's residence. I will certainly prepare a bed for you to enjoy."

After hearing Du He's words, Li Zhi smiled and nodded, then strode towards the Liangyi Hall.

Looking at Li Zhi's leaving back, Du He's face showed a strange look, and then he sighed in his heart.

"Li Zhi's temperament changes so quickly!"

"It seems that ambition and power can really change a person's temperament quickly!"

When I first met Li Zhi, he was still a cowardly prince, looking like the boy next door.

But when Du He watched Li Zhi up close again today, he found that he already had the temperament of a superior.

When he gets a few years older, I'm afraid Li Zhi's aura will become stronger and stronger.

"As expected of Emperor Gaozong, who is proficient in both civil and military affairs, he has made rapid progress!"

After Du He sighed for a while, he strode back to the Ministry of Works.
