Chapter 919: The imperial court allocated funds to build a medical center
The old woman on the side interjected: "Sir, there is an abandoned ancestral hall at the east end of the village. It is spacious and close to the water source. It should be a good choice."
When Zhu Han heard this, he secretly approved of the old woman's suggestion and nodded: "The old woman is right. We can check the ancestral hall first to see if it is suitable for use as a medical center."
Then, Zhu Han turned to Zhu Biao and said: "Your Highness, regarding the construction and operation of the medical center, we need to apply for financial and material support from the imperial court. At the same time, we also need to recruit some medical officers with high medical skills to come and sit in for consultation."
Zhu Biao nodded in agreement: "What Uncle Han Wang said is absolutely true. I will immediately prepare a memorial to report the situation here to my father in detail and ask for the support of the imperial court."
The middle-aged man held up his hands gratefully and said: "You two gentlemen are really good officials who care about the people. We people in the mountains can't thank you enough!"
Zhu Han waved his hand and said humbly: "Brother, you are serious. This is our duty as court officials. Next, we need the help of the villagers to prepare for the construction of the medical center."
Hearing this, the old woman and other villagers expressed their willingness to help. When Zhu Han saw this, a warm current surged in his heart. He continued: "Okay, then we will act separately. His Highness Zhu Biao is responsible for applying for funds and supplies from the court, and
Recruit medical officers; I will stay here and prepare for the construction of the medical center together with the villagers."
Upon hearing this, the villagers responded one after another. Some expressed their willingness to provide labor, while others were willing to donate wood, bricks and other building materials. Seeing this, Zhu Han became more determined to build a medical center for the villagers.
Early the next morning, Zhu Han and the villagers came to the abandoned ancestral hall at the east end of the village. After some investigation, everyone agreed that this was indeed an ideal place to build a medical clinic. So the villagers organized themselves and began to clean up the inside and outside of the ancestral hall.
Debris, ready for renovation.
Zhu Han personally drew the layout of the medical center and discussed every detail with the villagers. He emphasized that the layout of the medical center should be reasonable, not only to facilitate villagers seeking medical treatment, but also to ensure the hygiene and safety of the medical center.
Under the leadership of Zhu Han, the villagers were full of energy and devoted themselves to the construction of the medical center. Some of them carried bricks and stones, some cleaned weeds, and some were responsible for leveling the ground. The entire ancestral hall was a lively scene inside and outside.
Zhu Han held a roll of drawings and shuttled among the busy people, stopping from time to time to provide guidance and adjustments to the working villagers. He noticed that a young and strong man was carrying a huge stone slab, which seemed a little difficult.
He stepped forward and offered his hand.
"Young man, come on, let's lift it together." Zhu Han said, and he and the young man worked together to place the stone slab firmly at the predetermined position. The young man wiped his sweat gratefully and said with a smile: "Thank you, sir, you are such a good official."
There are no shelves.”
Zhu Han smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "We all work for the villagers, there is no such thing as being an official. What is your name?"
"My name is Daniel, young master." Daniel replied honestly.
Zhu Han nodded and continued to say to Daniel: "Daniu, the construction of this medical center must not be careless. Every brick and stone must be placed firmly to ensure the safety of the medical center."
Daniel nodded seriously: "Don't worry, sir, I will do it carefully."
At this time, an old craftsman came over, holding a long ruler in his hand, and said respectfully to Zhu Han: "Sir, look at the layout of this wall. I plan to build it like this. What do you think?"
Zhu Han took the long ruler, measured it carefully, nodded with satisfaction and said: "Okay, let's follow this layout. Remember to leave the doors and windows wider to facilitate the entry and exit of the villagers, and also to facilitate ventilation and light transmission."
The old craftsman responded: "Okay, sir. I will follow your instructions and build this hospital into a strong and bright place."
As time went by, the ancestral hall gradually glowed with new vitality. The villagers worked together to not only clean the inside and outside of the ancestral hall spotlessly, but also began to build new walls according to Zhu Han's design. Zhu Han from time to time based on the scene
According to the situation, the design is fine-tuned to ensure that every corner of the medical center can maximize its effectiveness.
The afternoon sun shines through the sparse clouds on the busy construction site, bringing a touch of warmth to the hard-working villagers. Zhu Han stood on a high place, looking at this promising scene, and his heart was filled with joy.
At this time, a middle-aged woman came over carrying a basket filled with hot meals and tea. She smiled and said to Zhu Han: "Master, everyone is hungry. I
I have specially cooked some food, so why don’t you come and eat some too.”
Zhu Han quickly thanked him, took the meal, and sat around with the villagers, chatting while eating. He asked about each villager's physical condition and family situation with concern.
Uncle Li shook his head and forced a smile: "Thank you for your concern, sir. This old man's bones are still strong, but he is occasionally disturbed by the wind and cold."
When Zhu Han heard this, his heart tightened, and he immediately took out a bottle of cold-repelling medicated oil from his arms and handed it to Uncle Li: "Uncle Li, these are some cold-repelling medicated oils. You can apply it on your joints at night. It may relieve the pain."
Some pain."
Uncle Li took the medicinal oil, his eyes were slightly red, and he thanked him repeatedly: "Young Master is really kind-hearted, I can't thank you enough."
At this time, a middle-aged woman, Aunt Zhang, took over the conversation. She served the rice and said: "Sir, in our mountains, it is common to be short of medical treatment and medicine. Once your medical center is built, people in our village will
It will be much more convenient to see a doctor.”
Zhu Han smiled and nodded, his eyes full of determination: "Aunt Zhang, don't worry, building a medical center is one of the important tasks of our trip. We will definitely try our best to make it no longer difficult for the villagers to see a doctor."
The Daniel next to him also interjected: "Sir, when will our medical center be built? I can't wait to see the day it opens."
Zhu Han thought for a while and answered seriously: "Daniu, as long as we work together, the medical center can be built soon. However, the specific time depends on everyone's hard work and the support of the court."
Hearing this, Daniel's eyes flashed with excitement: "Don't worry, young master, we people in the mountains have nothing but strength. We will go all out for such a big thing as building a medical center!"
Zhu Han smiled and patted Daniel on the shoulder, encouraging: "With your determination, the construction of our medical center will definitely go more smoothly. However, in addition to strength, we also need care and patience to ensure that every step of the medical center
Everything is sturdy and durable, allowing villagers to seek medical treatment with peace of mind.”
Da Niu smiled honestly and said: "Don't worry, sir, we are always serious about our work and will never be careless. Just tell me, what should we do next?"
Zhu Han pointed to a pile of wood not far away and said: "Daniu, you take a few young and strong brothers to transport the wood to the designated location according to the marks on the drawing, and prepare to build the main body of the medical center.
Structure. Remember, be sure to measure the dimensions and make sure each piece of wood fits perfectly."
Da Niu responded, then called over several young people, and started moving the wood together. They either carried it on their shoulders, or they worked together to lift the long wood. Their movements were coordinated and powerful, and after a while, the wood was neatly stacked in the designated area.
.
At this time, an old craftsman, Li Bo, came over, holding a carving knife and a few wooden boards in his hand, and said to Zhu Han: "Sir, the doors and windows of the medical center have been made. Do you think the style and size can be returned?"
suitable?"
Zhu Han took the wooden board, looked at it carefully, nodded and said: "Uncle Li's craftsmanship is really superb. These doors and windows are both beautiful and practical. The size also fully meets the requirements. Just continue to make it according to such standards."
Hearing this, Uncle Li showed a satisfied smile on his face: "Thank you for the compliment, sir. There are no other people in our mountains but our craftsmanship is good. Don't worry, I will make the doors and windows beautiful."
After speaking, Uncle Li turned around and devoted himself to the busy production. The carving knife flew nimbly in his hands, while sawdust flew around, and delicate doors and windows gradually took shape.
Zhu Han patrolled around the construction site, giving guidance and encouragement to the villagers from time to time. He noticed that several women were weaving fences with bamboo strips, preparing to surround the small courtyard of the hospital. He walked over and asked softly: "Aunts,
, how is the editing going? Do you need any help?"
A middle-aged woman raised her head and smiled and said: "Don't worry, sir, we are experts at weaving fences. These bamboos are strong and durable, so the fence will definitely be secure. But our manpower is limited, so the progress may be a bit slow."
Zhu Han thought for a while and said, "Let's do this. I'll ask a few young men to help you carry the bamboo to speed up the progress. We have to try to build the medical center as soon as possible so that the villagers can use it as soon as possible."
The women thanked them profusely, and Zhu Han immediately called a few young people to help weave the fence. With their participation, the weaving speed of the fence was significantly accelerated.
The sun was gradually setting in the west, and the sky was covered with sunset. Although the construction site had been busy for a day, everyone's face was filled with smiles of satisfaction and expectation. Zhu Han stood on a high place, looking at the land that was about to become a healthy place for the villagers.
The patron saint of the building is filled with pride and joy.
At this time, Zhu Biao also hurried over. He held a letter in his hand and said to Zhu Han: "Uncle Han, this is the news that just came from the capital. My father has approved our request and agreed to allocate funds for support."
We built a medical center and dispatched several medical officers with excellent medical skills to come for consultation.”
Zhu Han was overjoyed when he heard this: "Great! In this way, the construction of our medical center can be advanced faster. The villagers can also enjoy better medical services as soon as possible."
Zhu Biao nodded in agreement: "Yes, now we can devote ourselves to the construction of the medical center with more peace of mind. But Uncle Hanwang, you must also pay attention to your health and don't get exhausted."
Zhu Han smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I'm very strong. But we have to tell the villagers the good news quickly so that they can be happy too."
Zhu Han and Zhu Biao looked at each other and smiled, then turned and walked towards the busy villagers, ready to share the good news with them. Zhu Han shouted loudly: "Folks, I have good news to tell you!"
The villagers stopped what they were doing and gathered around, their eyes shining with curiosity and expectation. Zhu Han cleared his throat and continued: "I just received the news that His Majesty has approved our request and agreed to allocate funds to support our construction here.
Medical clinic, and will send medical officers with excellent medical skills to come for consultation!"
A burst of cheers suddenly erupted from the crowd, and the old woman was so excited that tears filled her eyes: "That's great! Master, you are really our great benefactor!"
The middle-aged man also clenched his fists, and his eyes shone with gratitude: "Now we people in the mountains no longer have to worry about medical treatment. Thank you two young masters, and thank you to the court!"
Zhu Han smiled and waved his hands to signal everyone to be quiet, and continued: "However, the construction of the medical center still requires everyone's joint efforts. Next, we must speed up the progress to ensure that the medical center can be put into use as soon as possible."
Daniel was the first to respond: "Don't worry, sir, we will do our best! If you need us to do anything, just ask us!"
Zhu Han nodded and glanced at each villager, his heart full of gratitude and confidence: "Okay, then we will divide the work and cooperate. Daniel, you lead a few young and strong brothers to continue carrying materials and building the hospital.
The main structure of the hospital; ladies and gentlemen, please continue to weave fences to enclose the courtyard of the hospital. Everyone must pay attention to safety and ensure the quality of the project."
The villagers agreed one after another, returned to their jobs, and continued their intense and orderly work.
Zhu Han and Zhu Biao shuttled between the construction sites, giving guidance and encouragement from time to time.
Zhu Han walked up to a middle-aged man who was building a wall. Seeing that his skills were a little unfamiliar, he reminded him softly: "Brother, when building a wall, the bricks must be staggered and overlapped, so that the wall will be more beautiful."
stable."
The middle-aged man raised his head and smiled honestly: "Thank you, Master, for your advice. I'll change it right now." As he said that, he carefully adjusted the position of the bricks, and indeed the bricks were laid more neatly.
Not far away, several young women were weaving a fence. They were skilled in their skills, and the bamboo strips seemed to be alive in their hands, jumping flexibly. Zhu Biao walked over and talked with them: "Aunts, this fence is so well woven.
It’s both strong and beautiful. Thank you for your hard work.”
An aunt wiped the sweat from her forehead and said with a smile: "It's not hard, as long as we can do something for the village, we will be happy."
At this time, carpenter Li Tiezhu hurriedly came over, holding a newly made wooden beam in his hand, and said to Zhu Han: "Your Highness, this beam is ready. Where do you think it is suitable to put it?"
Zhu Han took the wooden beam, looked at it carefully, pointed to the side of the medical center and said, "Put it here. It needs to bear weight. Remember to fix it firmly."
Li Tiezhu responded, and with a few helpers carefully lifted the wooden beam to the designated position and began to fix it. Zhu Han checked on the side to ensure that every detail was perfect.
The sun was gradually setting in the west, and the last ray of sunset on the horizon was gradually fading. The construction site was brightly lit, and the villagers were still very energetic. No one was willing to stop their work. Zhu Han and Zhu Biao looked at each other and smiled, their hearts filled with emotion and admiration.
