I practiced medicine in ancient times

"You've finished the examination so quickly? Who of you examined it? What prescription did you get? If there was anything you didn't understand, tell me about it and I'll explain it to you." Doctor Wu outside looked at the back of Xu Qingyi who left first, then turned to his son and Hou Chuan and said.

"Qingyi treated them all, but the prescriptions she wrote were a bit strange." Wu Yao said to his father with a strange look on his face.

"Strange? What prescription did you write? Let me see." Seeing this, Doctor Wu immediately became curious and stretched out his hand to Wu Yao, wanting to see the pulse history and prescription they wrote down for the patient.

Doctor Wu took the prescription and read it carefully. He frowned slightly, with a thoughtful look on his face.

"These are all folk remedies. Basically, you don't need to spend extra money to buy medicine." After a while, Doctor Wu checked Xu Qingyi's pulse and the prescription he wrote, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

"Dad, is this prescription useful?" Wu Yao asked curiously.

The characteristics of folk remedies are simple composition, few medicinal ingredients, easy access to local materials, and they may have special therapeutic effects on certain diseases.

However, there are two main sources of folk remedies: one is the accumulation of experience, which is mainly circulated among the people and known to most people; the other is circulated within the family and is often passed down to a single person.

Wu Yao was curious about how Qing Yi knew these things.

These are not taught in the Qing Nang Medical Classic.

“Although this folk remedy is strange, it does make sense if you calculate it carefully.

It is based on the human body's Yin-Yang, Five Elements, and Eight Diagrams. Whether it is effective or not, someone will give feedback in a few days. "When Doctor Wu saw that the folk prescription Xu Qingyi prescribed for the patient was interesting, he showed it to Doctor Li and Doctor Wen.

After some analysis and calculation, they found that these folk prescriptions did make sense and seemed to coincide with some theories in the Qing Nang Medical Classic. Although these folk prescriptions seemed strange, careful calculation revealed the profound truths contained in them.

"I'm really confused. How does Qingyi know all this? Did you teach her, Doctor Wen? Or did she figure it out by herself by reading books?" Doctor Li asked curiously.

"I didn't teach her these things, I guess she figured them out on her own.

It can be seen that Qingyi has an excellent talent for medicine, and after applying what he has learned, he was able to recommend Chen Xin. He is really a genius! "Xu Qingyi once again refreshed the cognition of Doctor Wen and others.

"If this continues, when the county's rejuvenation clinic selects disciples next year, there will be no problem for Qingyi to be transferred to the county.

Hou Chuan and Wu Yao, who are learning medicine from Qingyi and exchanging ideas with each other, may also have the opportunity to be selected to study medicine at the county's Huichun Medical Clinic. "When Doctor Wu thought of this, his eyes lit up and he said.

Suddenly, a lot of thoughts came to my mind.

There is a set of promotion procedures for the handymen, apprentices and disciples in the rejuvenation clinics in every town, county, prefecture and capital. As long as they study step by step and spend more years studying, there will be no problem in getting promoted to disciples. As for achieving academic success, becoming a master and seeing patients, this requires talent.

Many people have been promoted to disciples but have not been able to become apprentices for many years. As they grow older, this type of disciples will gradually become managers or owners of the clinic, as well as teaching masters, responsible for the daily operations and management of the clinic.

As their identities changed, they still played an important role in the clinic and made great contributions to its development.

In the clinic, every disciple has to go through the process from a handyman to an apprentice and then to a disciple.

However, every two years, the higher-level county and prefecture clinics would select talents for promotion from the lower-level clinics, but this selection was limited to disciples and doctors who had graduated, and the assessment was conducted every two years.

The capable ones go up, the mediocre ones go down.

After all, the land of a town is far less than that of a county, the land of a county is far less than that of a prefecture, and the land of a prefecture is far less than that of the capital.

The more prosperous the provincial capital and the capital city are, the more prosperous and rich the place is in the entire Tianshan Kingdom. It has all kinds of resources, and its medical knowledge and technology are naturally ahead of other places.

In the rejuvenation clinics in the capital, there are countless top medical masters and famous doctors. They not only have superb medical skills, but also have profound medical theoretical knowledge and practical experience.

Even most of the imperial doctors, female doctors and other medical officers of various ranks in the palace were selected and assessed from the Miaoshou Medical Clinic and the Huichun Medical Clinic to enter the Imperial Hospital, and then were given official ranks. As for imperial doctors who did not come from these two medical clinics but had ranks in the Imperial Hospital, there were almost none.

For doctors who have ideas and ideals and want to bring honor to their family, the Beijing Rejuvenation Clinic is undoubtedly the place they dream of. After all, entering the Beijing Rejuvenation Clinic means that one has one foot in the Imperial Hospital. They are eligible to participate in the Imperial Hospital assessment and one day become an imperial physician.

However, it is not easy to enter the Beijing Rejuvenation Clinic. One needs to go through layers of selection and assessment, and the competition is extremely fierce. Some doctors cannot obtain the qualifications to enter the provincial capital or even the capital's clinic in their entire lives.

The selection process is extremely strict and requires multiple rounds of assessments, including medical skills, medical ethics, medical principles, etc. Only by passing these assessments can one be qualified to enter a higher-level medical clinic.

"Wu Yao is not a big problem. After all, he entered the third round of the medicine competition last year and ranked fifth. It was also held in Chuanshan County. He should have caught the attention of some people in Chuanshan County. It shouldn't be a problem for him to be selected into the county's rejuvenation clinic in next year's assessment.

As for Hou Chuan, it's a bit hopeless, but if he works hard for a year, he may have a chance. " Doctor Li said with a clear mind.

Moreover, Doctor Li was somewhat envious of Doctor Wu. As the son followed in his father's footsteps, Wu Yao could be said to have inherited his father's mantle and was even better than his father.

When he thought of his son Li Li, he became furious. Not only did he not inherit his mantle, but he was also careless in the art of medicine. He didn't even pass the first round of the medicine competition last year. He was really bad.

"So, in the coming year, we still have to focus on training these three people." Doctor Wen nodded.

Although Xu Qingyi did not become her disciple, he did learn medicine from her. The more successful Xu Qingyi became, the more proud she would be.

Another point is that once the county-level clinic selects disciples to serve in the town-level clinic, once they are selected, the headquarters in Beijing will issue rewards to the doctors in their clinic.

The amount ranged from dozens of taels to hundreds of taels. If the doctors divided the money among themselves, each of them could get more than ten or twenty taels of silver. This was not a small amount of money.

"I'm actually looking forward to next year." Doctor Wu said with his eyes shining when he saw that his son still had hope of further development.

In this life, he could only treat patients in Qingshui Town, and he had never thought about going to Chuanshan County.
