Chapter 228

And just as the middle-aged man was waiting, Lin Yang, on the other side, had already met another existence!

"Mr. Zhang, I have finally managed to invite you here!"

Lin Yang looked at the old man before him and bowed respectfully!

"Governor, you are too polite; this old man does not deserve it!"

The old man hurriedly stood up, speaking, and was just about to return the courtesy when Lin Yang pulled him up!

"Sir, you must not do this!"

Unlike others, Lin Yang's address of "Sir" was sincere and heartfelt!

The person before him!

Was truly worthy of the title of "Sir" for later generations!

"This!"

Being helped up by Lin Yang, the old man felt Lin Yang's enthusiasm!

Such enthusiasm made the old man feel a bit embarrassed!

In this era!

Although physicians had a certain status!

It was not enough to warrant such treatment before a Provincial Governor!

"May I ask, Governor, who in your household needs this old man's help with a diagnosis?"

The old man pondered for a moment and then asked!

Lin Yang treated him with such courtesy!

There must be someone in his household who was seriously ill!

Otherwise, it wouldn't be like this!

"Mr. Zhongjing, you have misunderstood; no one in my household is ill!"

Looking at the old man, Lin Yang smiled and sat down beside him without any airs!

Zhang Ji, Zhang Zhongjing!

This was the name of the old man before him!

An existence known to later generations as the Medical Saint!

He had saved countless people and authored the "Treatise on Cold Damage and Miscellaneous Diseases," which had a profound influence on later generations!

For such an existence, Lin Yang naturally felt respect in his heart!

"Oh? Then, Governor, what is this about?"

Looking at Lin Yang in confusion, no one was sick, yet he was treated like this?

What did Lin Yang mean?

"I have heard that Mr. Zhongjing has superb medical skills and has saved countless people. I wonder if Mr. Zhongjing has ever thought about settling down in one place!"

Looking at Zhang Zhongjing tentatively, Lin Yang stated his purpose!

When he heard Lin Yang asking him to settle down!

Zhang Zhongjing's brows immediately furrowed!

He understood now!

The other party wanted him to stay and treat his illnesses?

"Thank you for your kindness, Governor, but this old man is a wandering crane and is used to being free!"

Zhang Zhongjing had encountered such things many times!

What he pursued in his life was not to be an official!

But to treat illnesses and save people!

With his current reputation!

If he wanted to be an Imperial Physician, he only needed to go to Luoyang, and naturally, someone would beg him and offer him the position of Chief of Imperial Physicians!

"Mr. Zhongjing has misunderstood!"

Zhang Zhongjing's attitude made Lin Yang sigh at the kindness of these physicians!

Physicians who could leave their names in history!

Which one of them didn't have a saintly heart!

"Mr. Zhongjing, have you ever thought about carrying forward the medical arts?" Looking at Zhang Zhongjing, Lin Yang continued, "Nowadays, there are very few physicians. With just Mr. Zhongjing alone, how many people can you save?"

"I am willing to open a medical school in Xuzhou, recruit scholars from humble backgrounds, and have them enter the medical school to study under you!"

"Anyone who completes their studies will be granted the position of a physician to practice medicine throughout the world and save the people!"

As Lin Yang spoke, Zhang Zhongjing's eyes lit up!

Establish a medical school?

Recruit scholars from all over the world to study medicine?

Let physicians spread throughout the world?

What kind of prosperous age would this be?

As a famous physician of the time, Zhang Zhongjing was stunned by such a scene!

You must know!

In the Han world, the number of physicians was extremely small!

And the training of physicians took a long time!

This resulted in many people across the Han territory falling ill and just waiting to die!

The reason Zhang Jiao of the Yellow Turban Rebellion could deceive people with talisman water!

Was because there weren't many physicians!

"Mr. Zhongjing, saving one person versus saving the people of the world—I ask you to consider it!"

Bowing to Zhang Zhongjing, Lin Yang's words about the medical school were not a lie!

In the upcoming wars for the world!

Without physicians in the army, relying solely on iodine wouldn't save people!

After a major battle, out of ten thousand soldiers, over three thousand would be wounded!

Lin Yang was truly in need of physicians!

"Is what the Governor says true?"

Excited inwardly, Zhang Zhongjing still scrutinized Lin Yang!

If Lin Yang really wanted to do this!

The medical path would surely flourish!

"Naturally. Sir, you can stay first. If what I say is false, you can leave on your own!"

Meeting Zhang Zhongjing's gaze sincerely, Lin Yang was open and honest!

Xuzhou was now prosperous, and the people lived in peace and contentment!

Taking advantage of this time to vigorously develop medicine was to prepare for the future!

The training of physicians was not something that could be done overnight!

It would take years, or even decades, to produce talent!

Lin Yang had to plan ahead!

Hearing Lin Yang's sincere response, Zhang Zhongjing couldn't sit still anymore and immediately agreed!

Between treating illnesses and saving people, and teaching more physicians to make the medical path flourish!

Undoubtedly, the latter was more important!

The former only allowed him to save others alone!

While the latter was truly a blessing to all people!

"The Governor has such benevolence; he will surely leave his name in history!"

In a great mood, Zhang Zhongjing praised him!

"Mr. Zhongjing, you flatter me!"

Responding modestly, leaving his name in history was inevitable!

After all!

Once your "Treatise on Cold Damage and Miscellaneous Diseases" comes out, I will surely share in the glory regardless!

Perhaps the history books of later generations will record:
