In fact, Chen Jingke had wanted to talk about the longevity pill issue for a long time. After all, he and the Li family were now bound together, and he wanted to save the lives of the family as much as possible.
It's just that some things require skill. If he ran over and said the elixir didn't exist without any warning, anyone would think too much about it, so he needed an opportunity.
Originally, he planned to wait for the day when a reckless Taoist priest offered an elixir, and then come forward to expose it and popularize scientific health knowledge.
Unexpectedly, the opportunity came so quickly and suddenly, so he immediately seized the opportunity to teach Li Shimin some science.
We don't expect that just a few words can dispel Li Shimin's luck, but at least leave a deep impression on him. Let him raise a question mark in his mind when he hears about the elixir, and just stop eating it randomly.
It would be better if Li Shimin paid more attention to medical skills.
In fact, he underestimated the importance of his words in Li Shimin's heart. In other words, since he learned that his entire family had genetic diseases, Li Shimin's emphasis on medical skills had reached an unprecedented level.
Studying medical skills is exactly what he wants.
So after hearing these words, although he did not completely give up his fantasy about the longevity pill, he paid great attention to the suggestions on medical skills.
He immediately said: "I am planning to build a Chong Medical Center to specialize in medical research. I hope that Master Sun can take up the post of director. You will tell him about this when you return."
"Okay, I will tell Master when I get back." Chen Jingke did not expect that things would go so smoothly, but he felt that this was not enough, so he said:
"Should we improve the status of the doctor? Medical skills cannot be achieved by just three or five people. Thirty or fifty people are too few. Three to five hundred, three to five thousand, or even three to fifty thousand are not too many."
"The status of a doctor is too low, and aspiring people will not choose to practice medicine if they have the means. Without the addition of talented people, medical skills cannot make rapid progress."
Li Shimin did not agree with his proposal, saying: "Haste makes waste, and sometimes rushing for success can have the opposite effect."
Chen Jingke thought about it briefly and understood his concerns. The class system has been solidified and it is difficult to change it.
It's easy for Li Shimin to change someone's class, it's just a matter of words.
But it is very difficult to change the class attributes of a certain group, and it will inevitably encounter opposition.
In particular, the 'scholar' class will be the group with the most intense opposition. Acting too hastily is likely to cause their backlash and suppression, making the medical community even more oppressed.
Chen Jingke could only give up this idea for the time being, and asked the next best thing: "Then can we relax the personal restrictions on the doctor?"
"Allowing them to move freely within a certain range makes it easier for them to contact more patients and allows them to communicate with more colleagues."
This time Li Shimin did not object again and said: "That's right. The two major epidemics in Guan Nei and Hedong were suppressed so quickly because the doctors of the two have made great contributions."
"They will still need to contribute in the follow-up epidemic prevention and pest control, so we should take this opportunity to relax the restrictions on them."
Chen Jingke said happily: "Your Majesty is wise."
Li Shimin glanced at him and said, "This is the first time you have praised me so respectfully."
"Uh..." Chen Jingke didn't know what to say.
Li Shimin didn't really want to hear his answer, and said to himself: "I didn't even thank you for giving you a reward, but now you are so flattering because you have relaxed the personal restrictions on the doctor. You really have the demeanor of a celebrity."
Chen Jingke was not sure whether he was really complimenting or sarcastically, so he could only remain silent.
At this time, Li Shimin suddenly asked: "Are you really indifferent to fame and fortune, or are you ready to leave at any time and don't care about this?"
Chen Jingke was silent for a long time and then said: "I am not that noble. I like money, power, and beautiful women very much. It's not that I don't care about rewards, but I know that I will definitely get them."
"Even if someone else is sitting in this position, I can still get these with my ability. Why should I be grateful if that's the case?"
"Compared with rewards, what I value more is your trust in me and my aunt's care and love for me. Others may give me power and beauty, but they will never give me these."
"So I won't be grateful for your reward, I will only respect you because of your trust."
Hearing this, Li Shimin's mood was very complicated. This was the first time someone had said such a thing to him.
If it were someone else, he would have spit on me and then kill him. There is no limit to his flattery, and he even tried to talk about feelings with me. Are you worthy of it?
But this person is Chen Jingke, a ten-year-old boy who is inexperienced in the world. He usually doesn't behave so smart or scheming.
The key is that he used his own life-saving medicine to save the queen at the most critical moment, and the Li family will continue to rely on him in the future.
What he said sounded so sincere to Li Shimin.
So Li Shimin patted him on the shoulder in a rare way and said with a smile: "You are the nephew of Guanyin, that is, my nephew. Please don't say such unreasonable words as a family."
It seemed that he was not used to such intimacy. After speaking, he immediately changed the subject and said: "Let's continue talking about business. Do you have any suggestions about Chongyi Clinic?"
Chen Jingke originally thought that Li Shimin would be angry, but what he said just now was indeed overstepping his bounds. He didn't expect that he would pass it by in such an understatement. He breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Medicine and practice are closely related. Almost all medical skills come from practice... But there are many shortcomings in just accumulating experience in treating patients. You must have a sufficient understanding of the people themselves."
"We need to know the structures and organs of the human body, the functions of each structure and organ, the symptoms after illness, the changes in taking different drugs, etc."
"Only by understanding these can we accurately apply treatment, so I hope His Majesty will allow us to perform human anatomy."
Li Shimin smiled bitterly: "You will really cause trouble for me. There is no way I can agree to this."
Seeing that Chen Jingke wanted to argue something, he waved his hand to interrupt and said, "Have you ever heard of Wu Zuo?"
False work? Chen Jingke was a little confused. He had certainly heard of it. Wasn't it law...wait, forensic medicine?
An idea flashed in his mind and he understood what Li Shimin meant.
The dead are the most important. In ancient times, dissecting a human corpse would definitely lead to rejection by the whole society. If word of this spread, doctors would never be able to raise their heads.
But there is one position where you can have access to corpses in an open and honest manner, and that is the job.
Let Chong Medical Center adjust the identities of several people, bring over the corpses of several death row prisoners, and dissect them under the guise of investigating the case, and no one can say anything.
After thinking about this, he gave a thumbs up and said in admiration: "Higher, your Majesty is still taller."
Li Shimin laughed and shook his head, then warned: "I don't know anything about this matter, do you understand?"
Chen Jingke understood instantly and said: "I understand, don't worry, I have never told you about this."
Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction and changed the subject again: "Continue to talk about the bomb..."
