Chapter Nine Hundred and Seventy Eight: Nothing(1/2)

"When we open a medical school, I believe many students will come to sign up. The size of the school must not be too small!"

Meng Tian was very excited when he learned that the medical school was to be built this time.

Before Ying Feiyu could ask for it, Meng Tian first asked to build it big enough!

"His Royal Highness the Prince just said that the medical school will be divided into three districts, and each district will be divided into three levels. So these three districts must be separated! I wonder if His Highness the Prince has drawn a sketch?"

Before Ying Feiyu could speak, Meng Tian kept talking to himself.

"not yet!"

Ying Feiyu smiled and shook his head.

"Does Your Majesty agree to this? How much money are you prepared to spend to build it?"

Meng Tian asked seriously.

As the first medical school in Daqin, it is still located in Xianyang, and its specifications must be grand.

This means you need to invest a lot of money!

"My father has agreed and will set up a health department to be responsible for the assessment of medical qualification certificates and the standardization of medical clinics!"

Ying Feiyu nodded, and then continued: "As for money... my father has no money!"

"What? No money? How to build it?"

Upon hearing this, Meng Tian's previous enthusiasm instantly dissipated.

It is true that he is the Minister of Industry, and he also has a large number of craftsmen under his command.

But it’s hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice!

Even if he has everything, he can’t do it without money!

You can't just conjure a school out of thin air, right?

I thought very well just now, and I also studied the size and general layout of the school, but I didn’t expect that His Majesty would be penniless!

"That's why I just said that I want to cooperate with the Ministry of Industry!"

Ying Feiyu reminded with a smile.

I guess this old guy was so happy that he forgot what he said before!

From the beginning he said he would cooperate with the Ministry of Industry.

The reason why it is called cooperation proves that he is the one who provided the money and entrusted the Ministry of Industry to build it!

Meng Tian slapped his forehead as if he had realized something, "Look at my head. I was so happy that I actually forgot about this!"

"So, His Majesty asked His Highness the Crown Prince to pay for the construction?"

"That's right! His Majesty refuses to pay, so he blames all the matter on this prince!"

Ying Feiyu pretended to have a very helpless expression.

"It must be quite expensive to establish a medical school, right?"

Although Meng Tian didn't know much about this aspect, he knew with his own feet that it would definitely cost a lot to establish such a large school.

"That's right! So I asked my father for 10 million gold. My father didn't agree, so he gave the medical school to this prince to build and manage!"

Ying Feiyu shrugged helplessly.

"Hiss..."

"Ten million gold?"

Even Meng Tian took a breath after hearing this number.

This is a huge amount of money!

That is now!

If it were the past, I am afraid that the entire national treasury would not be able to spend these ten million gold!

"If we just build the school building, it shouldn't cost so much money!"

Meng Tian is the minister of the Ministry of Industry and knows the cost of various projects very well.

Even if we know that the scale of building a medical school cannot be too small, it still doesn’t cost so much money!

"I, of course, know that! In addition to building the school building, we also need to pay high prices to hire famous doctors to teach, and we also need to research various medical equipment, medicines and the like. It is not certain whether ten million will be enough!"

After the medical school was established, it must have gathered famous doctors from all over the Qin Dynasty.

In addition to letting them teach students, Ying Feiyu also plans to build a large laboratory to specialize in medicine research.

Strive to develop special medicines for future generations to save those people who are suffering from diseases!

"I see!"

Meng Tian doesn’t understand medicine, so he doesn’t understand what he said!

Thinking about the prices of medicinal materials in the world, they are indeed ridiculously high.

Medical schools need to study these all day long, and the cost should be quite high!

"The same goes for Your Majesty. Isn't his money the same as yours, His Majesty the Crown Prince? You two, father and son, don't know who spends it on the same thing? Do we have to separate it for you and me?"

Meng Tian didn't understand very much.

It is obviously a good thing that benefits the country and the people, so why does Your Majesty insist on passing it on to His Highness the Crown Prince?

Which of them has different money?

"Meng Shangshu, you have been with my father for most of your life. Don't you still know my father's temperament?"

Ying Feiyu smiled evilly and gave him a look that you know.

"Haha! I naturally know this!"

Meng Tian understood immediately after receiving the look in his eyes and the meaningful words.

Your Majesty is stingy, they all know it!

It’s really hard to get him to pay for it!

"The medical school benefits the country and the people, so it must be built! Since my father doesn't pay for it, I, the crown prince, have to pay for it!"

Ying Feiyu said helplessly.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince understands righteousness deeply, and I admire him...!"

Meng Tian held up his hands, bowed deeply, and then made a decision, "Your Highness, don't worry, the Ministry of Industry is not here to make money this time. As long as it gives some subsidies to the craftsmen, we will build this medical school!"

The Ministry of Industry is subordinate to the imperial court and cannot work for private individuals.

But Ying Feiyu has a special status, so the Ministry of Industry cooperates with him from time to time.

While helping them build factories quickly, they can also make some money for the Ministry of Industry!

This time, His Highness the Crown Prince did not hesitate to pay for it for the sake of the people of the world, so the Ministry of Industry would be embarrassed to make any more money!

As long as he explains the reasons to the craftsmen, I believe the craftsmen will support him!

"That's not necessary...!"

Ying Feiyu waved his hand, "Let's just settle according to the rules we set before!"

All the businesses under his hands are very profitable, and the craftsmen’s money cannot be missed!

"No, no, no, our Ministry of Industry is just a bunch of bosses and they won't be of much help to the medical school. It's okay to put in some effort!"

Meng Tian still insisted.

"Then... ok! You must not lose out to the craftsmen, you can take care of the rest by yourself!"

He also understood what Meng Tian meant, which was to give up his share of the Ministry of Works' earnings, so he stopped refusing.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, the craftsmen earn hard-earned money, and I will never treat them badly...!"

Meng Tian nodded firmly, then seemed to think of something, frowned and asked, "Your Highness, shouldn't students studying in medical schools be charged the same as primary and secondary schools?"

He remembered that the school charged fees, and the total tuition fees for all students should be about the same as the school's daily expenses, so there would be no loss.

As for medical school, wouldn't it be enough to just charge more tuition?

"I understand what you mean, but learning medicine is already difficult. If you charge high fees, no one will study! In this way, the purpose of cultivating a large number of medical practitioners will not be achieved...!"

Ying Feiyu continued: "The tuition of medical school will be higher than that of primary and secondary schools, but it will not be much higher! The rest will be subsidized by this prince!"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince serves the country and the people, and I will bow to you as an official!"

Hearing that His Highness the Prince not only built a medical school but also provided long-term subsidies from his own pocket, Meng Tian once again gave it up.

"Your Highness, I can't help you with my official duties, but the medical school will be well built for you. Just tell me how you want it to be built."

"The prince plans to divide the entire school into three campuses! In addition, a cafeteria and dormitories will be built in each campus to provide convenience for students from out of town...!"

As Ying Feiyu spoke, Meng Tian sketched a rough figure on the paper.

By the time Ying Feiyu finished speaking, his sketch was almost complete.
To be continued...
