It's not that hard to open a hospital in another world, right?

Chapter 658 The Wonderful Interview Tour of the Nevis Herald
"Painless childbirth?"

Blake Shearer, the new editor of the Nevis Herald, pushed back his glasses and asked in disbelief.

Black used to be a student of Bridge School of Witchcraft and Magic, learning necromancy.However, during his two years of study, he failed to advance from a sorcerer's apprentice to a full-fledged magician, and was judged to have no talent and no training value.

And the employment opportunities for necromancers are extremely narrow, so narrow that they are sad.In contrast, it was the education he received in the process of learning magic that allowed him to find a job as an editor...

The "Nevis Herald" is not a mainstream newspaper in Nevis, but it is not comparable to a third-rate tabloid.The target readers are mainly businessmen, workshop owners and city hall clerks, those who have a decent income, have received a certain degree of education, and feel obliged to change society...

Of course, if you want to change society, you must keep up with technological changes.And technological changes, the most cutting-edge trends, are in "Arcane" and "Magic", as well as the latest research of magicians.

That led to Blake Shearer getting the job, hosting a column in the Nevis Herald dedicated to educating townspeople about magic that could change their lives.

For this reason, he has been keeping in touch with his classmates and seniors in the academy, and he has also heard the latest version from them...

"Yes, painless childbirth!"

His classmate Daniel Moder replied affirmatively:
"Have you ever heard of cesarean section? There was an article in the last issue of "Arcane" and "Magic". It was developed by Master Nordmark in our Oak Grove Medical Center. Now he is leading us to study infinite Painful labor..."

Blake Shearer certainly knew about C-sections.He even went to the White Tower specially, borrowed these two periodicals, and asked Daniel a lot of inside information.Using this information, he published an article:
"Cesarean section can greatly reduce maternal mortality. It can be said to be one of the most useful medical methods in this era. It is a pity that the combined cost of a cesarean section, magic arts and surgery is as high as 2000 gold coins. Let it be destined to serve only the rich and powerful..."

As soon as this article was published, the sales volume of the current newspaper increased by 500 copies, and readers continued to write to inquire.For this, he received a bonus of a full gold coin. The editor of the newspaper appreciated him very much and promised to give him a salary increase at the end of the year:
"It's a pity, if there is better content that is more related to our readership, you can get a salary increase now! Promoted to senior editor! Boy, you are the only editor with a magic background in our newspaper, I am optimistic about you!"

Blake was greatly encouraged, and ran to find new content from his classmates.This time, he got a surprise:
"I know you think cesarean section is too expensive, but this time is different!" Daniel leaned forward, his elbows resting on the table, his eyes sparkled:

"The cost of painless childbirth is much lower! The current price is 100 gold coins for the whole process of painless delivery. If only the most painful few hours are painless, it only costs a dozen gold coins!"

"So good!"

Blake was instantly agitated.More than a dozen gold coins, that is almost equivalent to the income of the readers of the "Nevis Herald" for several months, half a year, and at most one year.Take out such a sum of income, so that the wife will suffer less pain during childbirth...

Someone must be willing!Someone will definitely care about this news!

Black's first thought was to apply for an interview with a medical clinic.Before I finished my thoughts, I was photographed back by myself:

What an interview!Only by interviewing, you can't get the first-hand, the freshest, and the information that readers care most about!To make a big news, let the readers be on the scene!
And it just so happened that his wife was about to give birth...

Blake gritted his teeth and took out fifteen gold coins. After thinking for a while, one after another, five gold coins were released that were shiny.As a newly promoted editor, his salary for one year, plus bonuses, after deducting food and living expenses, the rest is here:
"Honey, I'll take you to a good place! Perhaps, it will allow you to give birth safely and save you a lot of pain..."

The carriage stopped at the Oak Grove Infirmary, or the "Red Cross" as the stagecoach drivers called it, and someone came up immediately to meet it.Seeing his wife with a big belly and struggling to walk, two barbarians even lifted out a stretcher and directly helped her onto the stretcher:
"Are you going to give birth here? The wife will send it directly to the red house, and the husband will go this way. First register at the front desk of the outpatient clinic..."

Registering name, age, address, month of pregnancy, paying for three days of hospitalization - 1 gold coin for 1 day - Blake Shearer was taken to join his wife.In the corridor inside the red house, the silent white-clothed nurse walked back and forth quickly, carrying the stretcher, changing the bedding, and delivering the mother...

Including the parturients together, the stretcher bed weighing about [-] kilograms was light and light in the hands of two petite nurses in white, as if it was nothing.

Blake always found their behavior a little strange.He rubbed his eyes, rubbed his eyes again, and suddenly realized:

Isn't this a skeleton soldier cover!
While in the academy, the necromancer's favorite trick!

Why are all the skeletons working?I take my wife away now, is there still time? !
However, the wallet told him that the 3 gold coins had already been paid, and it was agreed in advance that no refund would be given;
Reason told him that the Oak Grove Medical Center is the safest childbirth care institution in Nevis, and the fee is much cheaper than asking a midwife and a magician to come to the door together;
The front desk told him that with his status as a magician, his wife can enjoy a [-]% discount on childbirth services at the Oak Grove Medical Center...

Forget it, people can't live with their wallets.Blake Shearer, accompanied by his wife, was taken to a small empty house.Except for a bed, a stool, and an antler on the wall, the room was empty, with nothing...

"Madam, please face the wall, sit on the stool, and sit up straight. Take off your shirt and expose your back—yes, that's fine—" The female nurse who guided them smiled softly and spoke amiably:

"A caster will come to check you later. It's a man, but he can only see your back, at least 1 meter away from you, and won't touch you, don't be afraid~~~"

"Wait, why a man?"

Blake and his wife asked simultaneously.The female nurse's smile remained unchanged:

"Oh, because female spellcasters are all working in the delivery room. These jobs that don't need to touch the mother's body should be done by men as much as possible—"

At this time, the door opened, and a necromancer walked in quickly, and looked face to face with Black.The two were startled, and the necromancer immediately retreated:

"Old classmate? Then I don't have to work, you can do it yourself. Use [Detect Magic] to see your wife, and use [Mage Trick] to dye the sixth thoracic vertebra on the back, and make a mark-this is used to give painless eyes. Don't look for the wrong position for the delivery location!"

With a bang, the door closed.Blake Shearer: "…"

He had to roll up his sleeves.Fortunately, in the process of learning to become a necromancer, the knowledge I have mastered has not been fully returned to the teacher, and after stumbling, I finally found the sixth thoracic vertebra.Complete the mark, send the wife out, and quietly grab the old classmate:
"...Hey, I did this job, can the treatment fee be waived?"

"What are you thinking! You didn't ask for these fees at all! Master Nordmark has to do a project, and he waived a large amount of fees in the name of research, otherwise you think 3 gold coins are enough for accommodation? —— Stop talking , the next inspection!"

The next check is also done by a male mage.Moreover, it is also a male necromancer.

Blake Shearer watched as his wife was put on the bed, her legs spread and straddled.Fortunately, there is no need to undress—only the nurse asked repeatedly: "Is there no metal object on the body? The edge of the clothes, the belt, and the pockets, are there any?"

Then a necromancer kneels between his wife's legs and casts his magic, looking up and down, front and back, all angles.Not only look at it, but compare it with a ruler:
"The anteroposterior diameter of the pelvic entrance, 11cm!"

"The diameter between ischial spines, 9.8cm!"

"Sciatic notch width, 5.8cm!"

"The double parietal diameter of the fetal head, 8.9cm!"

...what is this guy doing?

Looking at the casting gesture, it seems to be the [Detection Magic] he used just now, but this way he can see the size of the fetus' head?
