Although the Yi Medical Hall is not far from the county government, it still requires a carriage.
When a few people took the county government's carriage back to the Free Medical Hall, it was almost dusk.
At the beginning of winter, even in the evening, the sun has set and the cool breeze is blowing with a chill.
The previous plaque has been replaced, and now it is particularly eye-catching against the lights.
Shen Yue stood in front of the door of the Free Medical Hall, looking up at the golden plaque with the imperial gift, feeling quite complicated.
However, with this plaque, the name of the Yi Medical Hall has become even more widespread, and the opening of two new branches has naturally come naturally.
"Is this the Yi Medical Hall?" Magistrate Song asked, looking at the plaque.
Shen Yue didn't know what Magistrate Song meant by this, so she could only nod her head and say, "Exactly."
Magistrate Song stroked his beard, nodded and smiled, "It's really unusual."
"Hahaha, what are you talking about, Brother Song? Could it be that it's not as good as your medicine hall in Songyu Town?"
Supervisor Xie retorted, causing Magistrate Song to wave his hands repeatedly, "Brother Xie, you think highly of me. If Songyu Town had a conscientious medicine hall like Yi Medical Hall, it would not be unable to contain the epidemic."
Hearing this, Shen Yue had a plan in mind and immediately interrupted the argument between the two of them, "Uncles, please come in first."
The few of them first visited the free medical hall where patients are admitted and medicines are dispensed, and then Shen Yue took them to the backyard.
Luo Mu and Shen Yang had come back. When they saw guests coming, Luo Mu didn't like to see guests, so she helped get snacks and boil tea in the kitchen, and Xiao Yang served them enthusiastically.
"Oh, this is Dr. Shen Sheng's younger brother? He looks somewhat similar." Magistrate Song looked at Shen Yang's cleverness and praised him.
Xiao Yang received the compliment, bowed to express his thanks, and then left.
Supervisor Xie couldn't help but look at such a polite and unfazed child.
After drinking tea, Magistrate Song finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Sheng Sheng, Doctor Shen, I heard that you have opened a free medical clinic in the capital?"
Magistrate Jiang and Inspector Xie knew that he wanted to talk to Shen Yue about something, so they found an excuse to visit the pharmacy.
Shen Yue put down her tea cup and raised her eyes, "Yes, the capital has just opened and the funds have not been withdrawn yet."
County Magistrate Song was startled when he heard this, but he did not give up and continued to ask, "What preparations are needed to open a branch of the Free Medical Hall?"
Shen Yue knew what Magistrate Song meant, and she pondered for a while before giving the answer, "The first priority is to open a shop in a place that is easy for people to find, and the second is the supply of doctors and medicines."
"A store that is easy to find?" Magistrate Song asked doubtfully, "What about a prosperous store in a bustling street?"
Shen Yue nodded slightly, "Of course it's okay, but with the current funds of the Yi Medical Hall, how can it dare to rent a prosperous shop?"
Shen Yue said while observing Magistrate Song's reaction.
Seeing that his gathered eyebrows had a tendency to relax, Shen Yue recalled what Uncle Jiang said.
Magistrate Song of Songyu Town was a good magistrate who worked diligently and served the people. Unfortunately, Songyu Town had some problems due to its location.
Thinking of this, Shen Yue struck while the iron was hot, "The purpose of opening a branch of the Yi Medical Hall is not to make money. There are many rich and powerful people in the capital, so the Yi Medical Hall sells a series of high-end pharmaceuticals.
On the other hand, the main purpose of opening medicine halls in the towns of the state capital is to treat the poor people who live in poverty and have no spare money for medical treatment, so that they can be cured and dare to be cured."
"Oh? If Dr. Shen is like this, it will be difficult to recover even the principal." Magistrate Song raised his eyebrows with interest.
Isn’t the purpose of opening a shop just to make money?
If it is true as the woman in front of him said, this move to benefit the people is really awe-inspiring, then what reason does he have to hesitate?
"Uncle Song laughed. The common people's daily medicines are of course practical and cheap, but the maintenance medicines used by wealthy households are naturally more expensive and more effective. Moreover, the Yi Medical Hall also conducts free clinics from time to time, so that people who really cannot afford to see a doctor can still have hope of life."
Therefore, there is money to be made in Yiyi Tang.
As soon as these words came out, Magistrate Song also fell silent.
After a while, he spoke again, "I wonder if Dr. Shen has the idea of opening a branch church in Songyu Town?"
