The Jin army besieged the city, and the Song emperor’s daughter died

Chapter 121 Kaifeng Underworld
Qian Bing's method of anesthesia is to use datura and hemp flowers as the main drugs, grind them with tencha, and mix them with other drugs for a total of three qian.

As soon as he took it, Zongze fell into a deep sleep.

The knives used in surgery were boiled in boiling water and then wiped with the fairy water sent by the government.

Chun Xia also thoughtfully wiped Qian Bing's hands with the fairy water: "The officials said that wiping your hands with this fairy water can protect you from external evils."

Although Qian Bing didn't know what this was, he just thought the smell was pungent and he didn't dare to use it rashly. However, after receiving it from the official, he doubted it and said, "The official also knows the art of Qihuang?"

Chunxia raised her chubby little face proudly: "The officials know a lot."

After everything was ready, Qian Bing asked Chunxia to wait outside and began to rescue.

The process was extremely smooth. The only thing that made Chunxia feel distressed was Zongze's scream: "Oh, it hurts!"

After the surgery, Qian Bing told the servants in Zongze's mansion: "Take this medicine internally, three times a day, and apply this medicine externally, change it once a day. Before changing the dressing, wipe a circle of the sore with the fairy water given by the official, be sure to carefully .”

After the explanation is completed, I will return to the palace in spring and summer.

"When I return to the official residence, if there are no external evils or internal invasion, Zong Shilang will be cured in half a month."

In Zhao Fujin's mind, back gangrene was not a serious illness, so he didn't ask any more questions. He was just curious about why Qian Bing didn't work on pediatrics but instead studied surgery.
"How can a person live his whole life relying only on the glory of his ancestors? He should find another way and develop his own family's skills."

There's nothing wrong with what he said, but Qian Bing's arrogant and middle-class look made Zhao Fujin want to laugh a little. Didn't he talk about his family background a few days ago?
"I've noticed that your skills are pretty good." Zhao Fujin paused and said, "Can I find you a new job?"

The errands assigned by the officials are the emperor's errands. It is a great honor to be able to do the emperor's errands. How could Qian Bing not know what to do? "No matter what the officials tell me, I will do my best."

"Would you like to join the army?"

As soon as these words came out, Qian Bing was stunned, and then shook his head: "If you don't want to, a good man will not join the army! Besides, I will not go into battle to kill the enemy."

Over the past hundred years, it has been a recognized principle in Song Dynasty society that good men should not join the army.

The formation of this kind of social values ​​is an extremely complicated process, but is it difficult for people who are well versed in the art of emperors?
Suppressing a group of people, and then promoting a group of people, manipulating various aspects such as treatment and honor, thus forming a chain of contempt. Once the chain of contempt is formed, social values ​​will also become.

For example, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty called Dong Zhongshu the leader of virtuous people, and also dismounted from his horse and walked to Xiama Mausoleum to show his respect. He had only one purpose, which was to make the world recognize Dong Zhongshu's theory of destiny. I believe that the world is destined by destiny. I am not the result of your princes or relatives, so don’t give me any trouble.

So far, Confucianism has been respected in the world.

It was not until the emergence of Neo-Confucianism in the Song Dynasty that people began to criticize Dong Zhongshu, saying that he was a Confucian heretic and that his talk about the Three Cardinal Guidelines and Five Constant Rules was distorting the learning of Confucius and Mencius.

When Zhao Dazhao arrived, in order to prevent those with strong martial virtues from dressing up in yellow robes and repeating the chaos of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, he declared that the world should be co-governed with scholar-bureaucrats, and then even their salaries were treated differently.

When the people saw it, they thought, What a great guy! The scholar-bureaucrats are awesome, but the warriors are vulgar!
In later generations, when foreign trade is needed, the imported ones despise the domestically produced ones; when domestic demand needs to be boosted, the domestically produced ones rise!

The same gameplay, over time, will always shape the social values ​​desired by the ruling class.

How could Zhao Fujin not know these truths, so when faced with Qian Bing's rejection, Zhao Fujin did not get angry, but just enlightened: "I'm not asking you to go into battle to kill the enemy, but I want you to help the world."

Zhao Fujin thought to himself that with Qian Bing's surgical skills, it would be too much to stay in Tai Hospital.

After all, operating on a member of the royal family... seems a bit like slaying a dragon.

Speaking of royal family members, there are too few cases that require surgery, but the battlefield is different. Most of them require surgical treatment. If Qian Bing can lead a team to set up a Great Song Military Hospital and follow the army in the future, wouldn’t it mean that everyone is wiped out? Its use?

After being fooled by Zhao Fujin, Qian Bing felt that this was the truth.

"The formula of the fairy water..." Qian Bing thought to himself that if he had the fairy water, not only would it be famous throughout the ages, it would at least be remembered by the world like his father's Liuwei Dihuang Pills.

"If you agree to join the army, I will give you this recipe."

"The minister obeys the order!"

The way to deal with middle school boys is that simple. …

……

While Zongze was recuperating these days, others were not idle.

In addition to Li Gang, Qin Hui, Li Bangyan and others who frequently came in and out of the imperial study, people from other yamen who could enter the palace to discuss matters also came in droves.

The things discussed were all matters discussed by the imperial court a few days ago, how to mobilize the people's interest in doing business and how to optimize the business environment of the Song Dynasty.

Each yamen has drawn up specific rules within its own scope of responsibilities.

Zhao Fujin was quite surprised by the views of the Minister of Justice.

"Be kind to businessmen and eliminate evil in Kaifeng!"

"There are bullies in Kaifeng?" Zhao Fujin became interested.

After all, most of my understanding of the Song Dynasty comes from historical data from later generations.

However, Confucian records of history include private rooms for princes, generals, ministers, loyal and treacherous ministers, but it is too macroscopic. Even Gao Qiu only has a few figures, let alone records of ordinary people.

This situation obviously violates the materialist view of history.

History is created by the people, not the princes and generals.

This is especially true of the "History of the Song Dynasty", so much so that in later studies, "Menghua Lu", "The Legacy of Xuanhe" and even "A Picture of Along the River During the Qingming Festival" are more credible than the "History of the Song Dynasty" on certain issues.

So Zhao Fujin was quite interested when he heard about the market.

Qi Wei bowed and said: "Although I have been in charge of the Ministry of Punishment for a short time, I have lived in Kaifeng for a long time, so I still know about the scandalous things in Kaifeng City."

"Details!"

Zhao Fujin sat cross-legged on the imperial couch, leaning forward with his chin in his hands, looking curious.

"The imperial court now collects taxes based on merchants' net profits. This is the imperial court's consideration for merchants. However, do the officials know why some of the merchants' profits are missing?"

Qi Wei gave it a try.

Zhao Fujin frowned: "Have you paid the protection fee?"

Qi Wei was stunned: "What is protection fee?"

Zhao Fujin sneered: "It's okay, just keep talking."

Qi Wei said seriously: "Obtained by some guilds!"

The city of Kaifeng is prosperous in commerce and has almost formed an industry system. For example, there is a restaurant guild for restaurants, a Caobang guild for river transportation, and a rouge guild for brothels. Even selling mutton soup requires joining a guild.

If you don't join the guild, you won't even be qualified to open a shop in Kaifeng City.

This invisibly sets a threshold for people to do business. If it were just that, it would be fine. However, some guilds not only want to extract profits from it, but also force payment of travel fees, and some even have to hold an initiation ceremony, just like a green forest gang. style.

As the saying goes, there are always people who can do things for the court wherever the court can't reach them.

The boss of a guild can decide the life or death of a store with just one word.

This is still considered literary, but if you want to see martial arts, you have to be a Caobang.
