Opening a General Hospital in Ancient Times

Gu Qiuyun, director of an all-specialties hospital, is stabbed through by someone and transmigrates to an ancient world he's never even heard of.

He's also saddled with a rogue System that insists he treat tens of millions of patients, or it will electrocute him.

He asks around about the country's population. It has just been through a war, and its population is under fifty million.

Gu Qiuyun lies flat. “You might as well electrocute me.”

The System, on the verge of running out of energy, backs down. “Let's talk this over.”

“Unless you can provide every medicine, medical supply, facility, and piece of equipment unconditionally, forget it.”

The System weepily signs the agreement.

An all-specialties hospital rises from the ground outside Beiliang City.

At first, no one dares visit this so-called hospital. But then...

The heir to the Prince's residence suffers from appendicitis. The imperial physicians say he's beyond saving, so his family takes him to the hospital as a last resort. A week later, he walks out full of energy.

The soldiers guarding the city return from suppressing bandits with only a breath left in them. The army doctor says to prepare for their funerals, but one of their subordinates refuses to give up and takes them to the hospital. Half a month later, they're out strolling with a cane.

The city's richest man was born with consumption. Every doctor says he can only take medicine to manage it, not cure it. He goes to this hospital, and in less than a month, well, he can walk five miles without getting winded.

The general hospital grows more and more famous, and countless patients come from far and wide. Gu Qiuyun has also trained plenty of apprentices. At this rate, he might actually complete his mission in his lifetime.

Gu Qiuyun congratulates himself, but more than once he regrets not listening to the advice of modern internet users.

Don't just pick up men on the roadside. Don't pick up men on the roadside. Don't pick up men.

At first, Gu Qiuyun only brought the man home to treat his injuries. Later, he figured the man was strong and sturdy, and would make a good male nurse if trained.

But this male nurse is always trying to crawl into his bed.

Coming soon: Taking Supplies Back and Forth to 1978

Blurb: 1978, on the eve of reform and opening up.

Some strange new products suddenly appear in Yuzhou, a city in southwestern China.

The mysterious shopkeeper only accepts gold, not ration coupons or cash.

But he can get you anything you want.

At the end of 1978, reform and opening up begins, and doing business is no longer taboo.

People finally get to see what the mysterious shopkeeper looks like.

He's not a middle-aged man returned from overseas, speaking in a foreign tongue as they'd imagined.

He's actually a handsome young man.

After the country opens up, its development is astonishingly rapid.

As ordinary people ride the tide of the times, they begin to wonder: is it really supposed to happen this fast?

While people overseas are still using pagers, they have big mobile phones. A couple of years later, even more compact cell phones arrive.

Just a few years ago, they were watching black-and-white television, while color TV was only just appearing overseas. How did they end up with LCD televisions?

Air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines... They work even better than the imported models.

And satellites, one after another, are launched into space.

It isn't until the news of a manned spaceflight is broadcast to everyone that they truly realize the world has changed.

At the Academy of Sciences, a white-haired old man stares at another stack of research materials that's suddenly appeared before him and sinks into thought yet again.

Who exactly is helping Huaxia?

A god? No. Only people from Huaxia would help Huaxia.

At first, Ji Qiuman only wants to make a little money trading goods between the two worlds.

As a young person from the twenty-first century, he sees how far behind the 1970s and 1980s are and can't help wanting to do something.

Even in a parallel world, Huaxia can't lag behind any other country.

Then let's count on the System.

The System returns after delivering the research materials. “Host, did you forget our name is the Myriad Worlds Trading System?”

Ji Qiuman: “It's fine, no big deal. Watch me work. How about I bring over a few new-energy cars?”

System: “Host, don't you think the handsome guy next door has started getting suspicious of you?”

“Can't be. He's just an ordinary man who's been sent away for hard labor.”
