Guo Cheng thought about it and said after a while: "It will cost a lot to open a medical office in Shouguang County, right?"
Zhou Man nodded, "There will be no shortage, but this cannot be done in a short time. The Imperial Medical Office is still too short of manpower. Let's first complete the medical office in Qingzhou City and the medical office in Beihai County."
Guo Chengcheng breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said: "Okay."
Guo Cheng urgently needs someone to support him, even the medical department, and Zhou Man also has Bai Shan by his side.
“Are we going to build a medical office?”
"No, no need," Manbao had sent someone to inquire about suitable courtyards in Qingzhou City before. Now he said directly: "There is a nice courtyard not far from the county government. There is a road in front of the door. It is very spacious. I don't want to go there.
It’s the county school and the government school again. I’ve asked about it, and that courtyard is the former governor’s courtyard. If you don’t mind, why don’t you allocate that courtyard to our medical department for use.”
Now Guo Cheng believed that she came prepared and really wanted to set up a medical office in Qingzhou City. Otherwise, how could she have chosen the place in advance?
Guo Cheng thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
In order to show his sincerity, he immediately asked someone to get the title deed of the yard and bring it to Zhou Man.
Zhou Man accepted it, then followed the master to go through the relevant procedures, and directly placed the hospital under the name of Qingzhou Medical Office.
Manbao was very satisfied with this and took Xibing and Daji to see the yard.
The courtyard that can be used as the governor's courtyard is naturally not small. Although it is also a courtyard with three entrances, there are two rows in total. There are four small courtyards in the backyard alone, not to mention the courtyards that go down side by side in the first two entrances.
.
Man Bao was very happy and exhaled: "This place is spacious enough and can accommodate more patients."
Daji couldn't help but ask, "Madam, do you have time to build a medical office here?"
"Why don't you have time? You can squeeze in some time," she said, "and isn't Wen Tiandong here? But we still have to recruit some more people, not only doctors, but also literati who can handle general affairs."
"As long as everything goes smoothly in Beihai County, there will be rules to follow in Qingzhou, and it will be much easier to do it."
Man Bao still had to go to Guo Cheng for recruitment.
"County exam?"
"Yes," Man Bao said, "Originally I wanted to select people from the Ming Jing Department, but it was too late this year. I asked the officials and all the candidates who passed the exam this year were assigned, and..."
She said with some embarrassment: "The official position of the local medical office is still relatively low now, so the candidates of Mingjing Department are not willing to choose the medical department, so I want to recruit a few people in the local area first, and then next year I can recruit from the Ming Dynasty."
Two people come here."
Guo Cheng: "...What subject does Mr. Zhou want to choose at this time?"
"Just choose the Ming Suan subject," Man Bao said, "Of course, if there are Ming Laws and Ming Jing, I can do it."
Guo Cheng:……
The start of the exam is a big event. There are several ways for students to take the Mingjing exam in the capital. One is to be recommended by the village and go directly to the capital to take the exam;
Second, students from county schools or government schools can go to the capital to take exams;
The third one is from Baiding, but has not entered the county school or the government school. They need to take the exam in the county and state first, and then go to the capital to take the exam after getting the recommended qualifications.
The vast majority of students fall into the second and third categories.
However, the Jin Dynasty did not prohibit population exchanges, so it did not restrict places.
Therefore, Bai Shan was from Longzhou, but he could be admitted to Yizhou Prefecture School, while Zhou Lixue and others were in the capital, and they could also obtain qualifications through the qualification examination organized by the capital academy.
The talents Zhou Man wants to recruit now are equivalent to selecting people only from the county examination, which greatly relaxes the criteria for selecting talents.
This is also a common thing. Some of the petty official positions in the county government are self-recruited by the county government. Since they do not even have a grade, people who have passed the National Ming Jing Ke Examination will not be able to do this kind of work.
For students who have passed the national Ming Jing Ke, Ming Suan and Ming Lv and other subject examinations, the lowest grades for seeking official positions are County Lieutenant and Chief Registrar.
This is already the lowest level, and those below are all anonymous clerks and clerks.
Those people below were either passed down from father to son or brother to brother; or they were recommended by others and passed the examination because they were really talented; or it was this kind of county-level examination.
The exam that Zhou Man and Bai Shan asked Zhou Lizhong to read and take was of this level. It did not test so many knowledge points. If calculated clearly, generally those who can write better accountant handwriting can pass the county-level exam.
It's just that it's difficult to go up any higher.
However, Zhou Man is in urgent need of subordinates at this time, and the requirements are very low. It is enough to be able to keep accounts and manage accounts. For more advanced ones, wait until next year's Ming Jing Ke examination.
Man Bao sighed, there has been a shortage of talents everywhere in the past two years.
"Sir, can the county examination be held?"
Guo Cheng calculated the time and said: "According to convention, each state government selects candidates to take the exam in the capital in October, the state exam is in September, and the county exam is in August..."
He said: "With so much advance, I'm afraid the students will panic and they may not be well prepared."
The risk of taking the exam in advance is too great. Guo Cheng said with a smile: "How about this, I ask someone to tell the truth and directly hold an exam for the Medical Department? Mr. Zhou can also choose the candidates himself."
Man Bao's eyes flashed slightly, "Is this possible?"
Guo Cheng smiled and said: "Of course you can. Recruiting talents is a normal thing. It's just that the Medical Department is special. I wonder what kind of talents Mr. Zhou wants?"
Man Bao then said energetically: "Sir, since this is an exam specially held for the Medical Department, how about I give the exam questions?"
Guo Cheng: "Ah?"
"Of course, we are going out together with the adults," Man Bao reacted and immediately flattered and said with a smile: "When the time comes, we will put the two sets of papers together for them to take the test, and then mark the papers to determine the scores. Since we are selecting people, of course
It’s up to you to choose the most suitable one.”
Guo Cheng thought for a while and felt that this person was wanted by the medical department after all, so it would be good for Zhou Man to participate in writing the examination papers, so he nodded.
He asked with a smile: "When will Mr. Zhou be able to produce good papers, and when do you want to set this exam?"
Manbao thought about it, "Propaganda also takes a certain amount of time. Your Excellency, we must ensure that all counties have publicity in place. The time cannot be too short. How about we set the date for June?"
Guo Cheng readily agreed.
Man Bao said with a smile: "Since you want to recruit wise men, why don't you add a few more strokes when writing the official document and say that the Medical Department also wants to recruit doctors. No matter what kind of doctor they are, as long as they are interested, they can come to the Medical Department and find me through me.
After passing the interview, you can join the Medical Department as a sitting doctor, how about that?"
Even the exam was set for her, so naturally Guo Cheng would no longer begrudge such a few lines, so he readily agreed.
Man Bao was overjoyed. Guo Cheng felt that he had established a good relationship with Zhou Man and was very satisfied with it, so he personally sent them out of the governor's house and watched them disappear on horseback at the street corner.
