Men who did not meet the requirements to join the army because of their physical condition and did not want to do manual labor ran to sign up crazily after receiving the news that there was a recruitment for accompanying medical doctor.
The women whose husband was in the army had also signed up after careful consideration and discussion with her husband.
With so many people signing up to be accompanying military doctors, there were also quite a few women.
The female students of the Qinghe Women s Technical College were even more swayed.
Originally, after entering the Qinghe Women’s Technical College, they chose this major to treat illnesses and save people. In the end, they did not even dare to come into contact with patients in the army. Wasn’t that ridiculous?
Besides, everyone had the courage to protect their country. Why couldn’t they?
Sister Qingfeng was even the leader of a group of men.
At the thought of this, they suddenly made up their minds. Ignoring the strong objections of their families, they went to sign up.
They were all girls with foundation knowledge, so it was naturally easier for them to be chosen than the others.
Soon, on the day they entered the base for training, when they saw the well-trained soldiers who did not dare to look at them again, the last worry in everyone’s hearts disappeared.
Everyone’s lives were precious. After the medical staff were dealt with, the medicine needed to treat the injured also needed to be prepared in case of any accidents.
Their Carefree City had Gu Zhongxun, Wen Renhua and the disciples taking care of everyone. There were many effective medicines. Some of them were even better than Bai Wutong’s modern pills.
In ancient times, medical treatment was outdated because firstly, it was not easy for a good doctor to become a doctor. Secondly, the knowledge of planting herbs was outdated. It was expensive to take medicine, and rare herbs were even more scarce.
Regarding the first point, Bai Wutong asked Gu Zhongxun and Wen Renhua to establish a medical school to nurture talents. They categorized various illnesses into internal medicine, surgery, ear, nose, throat, and so on. This way, it could greatly shorten the learning period for doctors and allow the people to find good doctors for different illnesses.
For the second point, when they arrived at the southern frontier to explore the land, Bai Wutong asked everyone to actively plant all kinds of herbs and study the growth habits of the herbs.
Medicinal herbs for daily colds, fevers, inflammation, and treatment of diarrhea had already reached the season where they could be harvested.
Bai Wutong went to the medicinal field to patrol. The herbs were growing extremely well. Village Chief Zhao sighed and said, “There are so many herbs. Why didn’t we think of planting them in the past!”
If they had thought of planting in the past, they would have made a lot of money selling it to the pharmacy.
Zhao Yuan chuckled. “Father, you didn’t recognize these herbs back then! Moreover, without the seeds obtained by Lord Sheng, how could you plant them?”
Village Chief Zhao laughed. “That’s true. Look at how senile Father is.”
Bai Wutong also smiled and said, “These herbs are all growing very well. We can plant some on a large scale next year. I’ll have to trouble you to continue researching the other herbs.”
Village Chief Zhao was happy to bring everyone to farm. He hurriedly said, “These herbs have already reached the harvest stage. When they’re harvested and we have turned over the soil, we can plant other herbs.”
Bai Wutong said, “Continued farming will cause the land to become barren. Remember to control the scale.”
Village Chief Zhao nodded. “Alright, let’s open up more land.”
Bai Wutong shook her head again. “The overhaul of logging and cultivation will destroy the environment, causing the ecology to be destroyed. Small animals will lose their homes and we won’t be able to see such good rivers and mountains in the future.”
This did not work, and that did not work either. It really stumped Village Chief Zhao.
Then how could they expand their farming area next year?
Fortunately, Bai Wutong continued, “The climate in the southern frontier is quick to change, and there are many types of herbs. Many precious herbs have extremely strict requirements for the environment, but required in large amounts. You can bring people to the local area to teach the commoners how to plant them..”
