Molested Zulong at the beginning

"What's the downside?"

Everyone was taken aback.

"This thing can only be used by people who have not been infected with smallpox, so that they will not be infected again in this life, and can prevent the large-scale spread of the epidemic. For those who have already contracted smallpox, there is no way."

Bai Su sighed, and said, "What I can do is to let the government go door-to-door to provide those patients with vegetables and eggs, so as to enhance their own immunity and increase their hope of survival by [-]%, that's all."

Everyone was stunned when they heard the words.

Especially Mo Xun, the Mohist tycoon, in her heart, Bai Su has always been a man who can do anything, didn't she think that there would be times when she was powerless?

Looking at Bai Su's frowning, she couldn't help but feel distressed.

After all, the entire burden of disaster relief is now on Bai Su alone, and it must be very uncomfortable to feel that there is nothing that can be done for those who are seriously ill.

The old man on the side, after hearing Bai Su's words, was only slightly stunned for a moment, but he didn't feel sad at all.

He saluted gratefully and said: "My lord, there is no need to be humble. Looking at the world, after hearing the name of smallpox, those so-called famous doctors would run away after hearing the news. It is not easy to win a [-]% chance, please be respected by the little old man."

Seeing this, Bai Su hurriedly stretched out his hand to help: "Please get up quickly, old man, there is no need to be polite."

"No, my lord treats me like this, how can the little old man not beg..."

"My lord, just let him salute. This time, my lord has cured smallpox and saved the common people in the world. Such a feat is no less than that of Shennong's taste of hundreds of herbs. You can afford this obeisance..."

The county magistrate of Yangzhai said with a smile.

Even Mo Xun, who was usually reticent, nodded with a smile on his face.

Just as Yangzhai county magistrate said, if Baisu could cure smallpox, this feat would be comparable to that of Shennong. The common people would directly build stone statues and enjoy incense and worship while alive.

Seeing that they couldn't resist them, Bai Su could only shake his head with a wry smile.

He was just simply worried that smallpox was raging in the Central Plains, which would affect his own eating, drinking and entertainment. He didn't expect that this erroneous person would enter the temple and enjoy the incense treatment.

Mo Xun is a cautious person. Although Bai Su trusts him very much, there are still necessary clinical trials to be done.

It is impossible for her to let the local people, hundreds of thousands, millions of people, fight this thing so recklessly just because of Bai Su's words.

Not to mention the common people, even the government itself has no idea.

Bai Su appreciated her rigorous attitude very much. As for who was to be the test subject, it was naturally the prisoners who had committed various serious crimes in the dungeon.

According to Bai Su, if we don't use these scumbags who bully men and women, rob and kill people to do experiments, wouldn't it be possible to let those law-abiding, simple and kind people in my Great Xia do experiments?

Mo Xun frowned at Bai Su's words, but she also knew that there was indeed no better way than this right now.

If you want to test how effective this thing is, you must select dozens or hundreds of people to experiment, otherwise the results obtained are prone to errors.

After all, there is a huge difference in physical fitness between a skinny old man and a strong man. How can we know the exact dosage without doing more experiments.

Instead of calling on the people, it is obviously a more humane choice to directly select some prisoners who have committed serious crimes from the dungeons.

Under the temptation of excessive drinking and meat and the reduction of sentence, many prisoners responded one after another.

They held daggers in their hands and slid across their arms. Bright red blood suddenly burst out from their thick and dark arms, and the blood flowed like a spring.

Under Bai Su's command, the guards held the cow tightly to prevent it from struggling. After getting some thick juice, the prisoners applied it to the wound on their arm.

Mo Xun had been watching all this quietly, his slender eyebrows were tightly furrowed, but he didn't say much.

After all this last night, she asked Bai Su in a low voice: "My lord, what's next?"

"It's over, just wait for the clinical response."

"Clinical reaction? Well, it's appropriate, what kind of reaction will it be?"

"Within four or five days, there will be fever, dizziness, and red spots on the body. The symptoms are the same as those of smallpox, but the degree is very mild, and it is not fatal. After four or five days, all symptoms disappear, and then they have smallpox. Antibody, I will never get smallpox in my life..."

Mo Xun's apricot eyes lit up with joy: "Really, it's that simple?"

Bai Su looked at her helplessly: "This kind of life-or-death matter, why should I lie to you?"

Mo Xun looked at Bai Su's serious face, and couldn't help but smile on his pretty face: "So, as long as they are safe and sound, this matter is more than half successful."

Bai Su nodded: "It's considered cheap for them. If you eat good wine and good meat, you only need to stay for a few days to reduce your sentence for several years. Is there any better deal in the world than this?"

He is full of confidence in this vaccination method.

As for how to find enough cattle, there is no worry at all.

The Central Plains is no longer what it used to be. Since the grasslands and the Western Regions became large pastures in the Central Plains, the resources of cattle, sheep and livestock in the Central Plains are quite abundant now, and there is no shortage at all.

As long as you look for it according to the symptoms, I believe it will not take long to collect enough cows to vaccinate the local people.

And the prisoners in these prisons are exactly as Bai Su said.

From the second day on, my body started to have a fever, hot and cold, and some red spots appeared on my body.

After five days, their body temperature began to return to normal, and the red spots on their bodies gradually faded away.

After seeing this scene, Mo Xun and the county magistrate of Yangzhai were all overjoyed: "It's saved, it's saved, nearly a million people in Han are finally saved, don't worry about smallpox."

Seeing this, Bai Su smiled, didn't say anything, but held the ink pen in his hand, and began to write the report to Xianyang.

Chapter 260 Three How Will I Reward You

Xianyang City, in the sleeping hall

Sister Zheng was wearing a light black long dress, sitting in front of the table, watching the latest report, her slender willow eyebrows were slightly frowned.

In the past few days, she hasn't had a good night's sleep.

The reason is very simple, just because the smallpox spreading in Handi really makes her sleepless all night.

No one thought that this small smallpox would cause so many chain reactions that the court had already swept through most of the three Jins before it could even deal with it.

Today, Shangshu Xiao He Qizuo said that the spread of smallpox is getting worse and worse. At present, the number of people who died of smallpox according to the official statistics is as many as several thousand.

The worse news is that natural disasters are often accompanied by man-made disasters.

Officials in the city reported one after another, the price of food in various places began to soar, and the people began to loot the medicinal materials. The city of Xianyang, which was full of flowers, seemed to be in turmoil.

This gave Miss Zheng a headache for a while.

This smallpox will not only kill the people, but also cause a series of chain reactions in the world. The people stay behind closed doors, no one works, no one cultivates the land, merchants flee one after another, and no one does business.

Under the influence of panic, the chain reaction became more and more serious. For example, the large amount of salt originally shipped from Qidi and the linen from Chudi, due to transportation problems, materials were in short supply, and the prices soared.

At present, the imperial court can still open positions and release inventory to temporarily suppress prices, but it can only last for three months at most.

If the smallpox problem cannot be resolved within three months, and the transportation of materials from various places cannot be connected, then something serious will happen.

After all, once the price of commonly used items such as salt and cloth grows too terrifying to the point where the common people cannot afford it, theft, looting, conflicts, and turmoil will naturally arise as the times require.

Of course, compared to these trivial matters, what makes Zheng Jie even more furious are the various rumors that have recently started circulating in the city.

It is said that, as a monarch, she lost her morality and offended the heaven, which attracted the punishment of the heaven and punished the innocent people.

Sister Zheng naturally didn't believe these rumors at all.

If morality is really useful, then what's the use of Da Xia's army of millions, but it's not a big deal to let the rumors spread like this.

In the dormitory, Sister Zheng flipped through the memorial absently, her phoenix eyes staring straight at the dancing candles.

But her mind was completely wandering to Handi thousands of miles away, to be more precise, Bai Su.

It has been seven or eight days since he left Xianyang, I don't know how he is now, if even this courtier can't help, then I... really have nothing to do.

This rebellion can be suppressed, the flood can strengthen the dams, and the drought can dig wells.

But how to prevent smallpox this time, you can't see it, you can't touch it, even if she holds a million army in her hands, there is nothing she can do about smallpox.

Sister Zheng suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness welling up in her heart. Although Bai Su said that there was a way to cure the plague, she didn't hold much hope in her heart.

After all, it has been thousands of years, and many famous doctors in the world are helpless about Tianhua bouquet. No matter how smart Bai Su is, I am afraid that he is not sure.

At this time, a burst of hurried footsteps echoed on the corridor of the main hall, coming from far to near.

Sister Zheng's slender willow eyebrows frowned, as if a heavy stone was suddenly pressed on her heart, she couldn't breathe.

Now that the night was so late, and the footsteps of the servants were so hasty, it often meant that another disaster had happened.

In the past few days, she has been under tremendous pressure. Sister Zheng has already been physically and mentally exhausted. Now that she hears footsteps, she suddenly feels a burst of impatience.

Outside the gate of the hall, a trembling figure knelt down, it was a messenger.

"Your Majesty Qizuo, there is an urgent report..."

Sister Zheng's eyelids twitched, and she said coldly: "What's wrong again? These days, it's either smallpox, rising food prices, or a shortage of salt. There is no one in the Manchu Dynasty who can share my worries."

"Get out, I don't want to hear a word today."

The emissary was so frightened that he trembled like a sieve, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, his thoughts turned, and he bravely said: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, this urgent report is not bad news, it is good news..."

"I don't even want a good thing... wait a minute, a good thing? What a good thing?" Sister Zheng came back to her senses, and a ray of hope slowly rose in her phoenix eyes.

"Your Majesty, this good news is written by Lord Bai himself, saying that he has found a way to restrain smallpox in the local area, and is gradually stabilizing the local situation..."

"What... what, Bai Su really found a way!"

Sister Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then her face showed ecstasy. She didn't care about the tiredness just now, and directly ordered: "This Bai Su is really my lucky star. He can bring me surprises every time. Hurry up... Hurry up!" His memorial is here."

"Yes……"

The envoy didn't dare to say more, and hastily presented the memorial to Sister Zheng.

Sister Zheng opened the folder, looked at it with her phoenix eyes, she was stunned for a moment, and then her vermilion lips couldn't help but curl up slightly: "As expected of him."

The notebook written by Bai Su is very short, but from the description, it can be seen that it is thrilling.

Some charlatans took advantage of this opportunity to gather more than [-] believers in the local area. It is a small matter to defraud people of money, but it is a big thing to confuse people and create chaos.

If this thief, taking advantage of the opportunity of the imperial court being exhausted, directly wrapped up the people's rebellion, it would inevitably cause a huge riot in various places.

Bai Su was smarter. He didn't directly send troops to forcefully suppress it to avoid large-scale conflicts. Instead, he used the method of fighting poison with poison to completely destroy the reputation of the real Yuchan in front of all the believers.

After arresting these leaders one after another, the originally loose believer organization fell apart in an instant, and there was no longer a trace of threat.

Relying on the prestige he has built up, as well as the government opening warehouses to release grain and subsidizing vegetables at low prices, Bai Su made the people voluntarily stay at home instead of running around.

After effectively controlling the spread of smallpox and not expanding it, he used the method of vaccinating smallpox that he had researched together with Mo Xun.

Plant it to the local people, and then they can be immune to smallpox for life.

The current local situation has been effectively brought under control.

The purpose of Bai Su's writing the report is also to let Zheng Jie spread the method of cowpox in Xianyang as soon as possible, so as to prevent smallpox from being brought under control at the front line, but the rear area becomes out of control on a large scale again due to the spread of sporadic refugees. stand up.

After all, smallpox and the plague only need a few infected patients to turn a city full of flowers into a purgatory.

Therefore, it has to be treated with caution.

After reading the above content, Sister Zheng had a look of joy on her beautiful face: "Okay, go... immediately summon the officials of the court, and try my best to find enough cows for me to use. Making cowpox..."

"Yes……"

The messenger bowed and stepped back.

Sister Zheng looked at the notes on the memorial with her phoenix eyes, and couldn't help recalling Bai Su's handsome face. She dragged her cheek with one hand, and her red lips curled up into a faint smile: "What a reliable person." My man, you said... When you come back, how will I reward you?"

Chapter 260 Four I Can Let You Touch It

Among the county government.

The candle flickered and danced.

Mo Xun wore an orange turban, a high ponytail, and a long blue skirt with a tight waistband, revealing a slender waist and slender thighs.

She was pressing her hands on the table, staring straight at Bai Su in front of her with a pair of apricot eyes. That slightly sickly pretty face looked very dignified and gorgeous.

"My lord, thanks to you, we have finally controlled smallpox in Yangzhai County. Now His Majesty has issued an order to promote the vaccination of vaccinia throughout the world. Presumably from now on, my Central Plains will never be poisoned by smallpox. Your lord This time is a great achievement.”

There was a hint of excitement in her tone.

Bai Su looked at the pretty girl in front of her who was blushing, and couldn't help but shook her head: "It wasn't my fault alone, if it wasn't for the government and the common people working together to resist smallpox, how could things go so smoothly."

What he said was true.

In the face of floods, plagues, smallpox, such large-scale natural disasters, only Sister Zheng has a basis for governance in this period. If it were in the past, no matter how clever he was, he would not be able to do anything about it.

The reason is very simple...

After the unification of the world, Sister Zheng promoted the prefecture and county system, with vehicles on the same track and books on the same text, and built a large number of roads and canals, which gave the imperial court the ability to control the grassroots of the people for the first time.
