"Secretary of the Household Department! I want you to allocate five hundred thousand taels of silver from the Household Department!"
The Minister of Household Affairs was shocked when he heard this.
This opening is five hundred thousand taels.
"Isn't this... too much? We won't be able to take it out for a while!"
"It's not much. Don't wait until the smallpox is severe before you think about spending money. Five million taels will not be enough at that time, and many people will die! If you can't get it now, how can you resist the plague?"
There are millions of people in Chang'an, and if two-tenths are listed, that's not a small amount.
The minister of household affairs hesitated.
“The first purpose of this money is to send it to people who are quarantined at home to supplement their household income, one tael per household!
The second is the production and transportation of masks, as well as the expenditure on many materials, such as herbs, manpower, food, cattle, etc. These expenditures are naturally managed by the Ministry of Household Affairs, and we will not take care of them, so this money
It should come out.
Of course, you can rest assured that everything our Shengtang Group has paid before will not be supplied by your court. This is what our Shengtang Group should do! We will live and die together with the people!"
Li Min's words once again gained a wave of favor.
In other words, that's because the Shengtang Group didn't care about the imperial court.
But when the minister of household affairs heard the word cow, he was puzzled.
"What is the cow going to do?"
Li Min would not tell him that he was going to be vaccinated against cowpox, because he didn't understand either. He could only wait until the time came for people to know.
Therefore, when the Minister of Household Affairs asked about it, he ignored it.
"Anyway, I need everything I need, and I will write it out for you! Let you transfer the money!"
The Minister of Household Affairs said: "I have to ask your Majesty for instructions on this!"
"Then I don't care so much, as long as I see the money! Be quick!"
Li Min expressed.
"yes!"
Then he wrote down many names.
In particular, there is a special note that the masks must be made under the supervision of Ji Ruxue, because only she can make them. Others cannot achieve the best results!
The Minister of Household Affairs nodded in agreement.
At this time, Sun Simiao had been practicing medicine for so many years, but he still couldn't guess what the function of cows was.
Pulling a cart for transportation? Killing for food? Or taking bezoars?
He doesn't understand!
"Okay, next! Send all patients infected with smallpox here for unified treatment!"
At this time people asked: "How can we know if it is smallpox?"
"Anyone who has chills, high fever, fatigue, headache, soreness in the limbs and lower back, please bring it! Before diagnosis, you must isolate yourself and don't get together!"
At this time, someone said: "Don't we not be able to contact them?"
"Let me tell you here, if you have had smallpox before, it doesn't matter. They can come into direct contact, but after contact, they must be disinfected! I will tell you the disinfection method at that time. You will do the publicity on your behalf, or you find that someone is sick.
, report directly, and they will be sent to the hospital for unified treatment! Those who have not had smallpox will stay at home. Another point to note is that the things used by the patients, such as clothes, are burned directly!
"
Li Min pointed to the civil and military officials and said, they need to be used at this time.
He arranged it very well.
People also obeyed his arrangements.
Go home and isolate.
The same is true for the people in Chang'an City. Everyone tried not to go out, but they didn't use masks.
But if smallpox is found in a place, the place will be immediately sealed off and disinfected.
A series of epidemic prevention measures were issued.
A large number of patients were sent.
They were handled uniformly by Sun Simiao and settled in a unified manner.
Everything was more serious than he expected. At this time, more than two hundred people had been infected.
Now is the time to race against time.
Sun Simiao and the civil and military officials were extremely busy.
During this period, Li Min also gave several prescriptions for clearing away heat.
And distribute it to provide unified management of patients.
They were given the same medicine to reduce the risk of smallpox to them.
However, even though he did this, there were still people who died before receiving treatment.
This made Li Min very sad, but he had to cremate those people to prevent the corpses from infecting other people.
A group of people were busy until the afternoon, and then they calmed down a little.
At this time, Li Min was finally free.
He asked Sun Simiao: "Master Sun, how many people are sick?"
"There are 265 people in total, and there are about a hundred people who just have ordinary colds, and they have been properly treated. Let them go back and take medicine!"
"So are there any new cases in Anlefang so far?"
"Only a few sporadic cases!"
"That's almost it! But we can't slack off yet and keep accepting them until there are no more!"
It would be early for them to intervene; if it were later, things would be difficult to control.
Li Min turned around and said to the official behind him: "Wherever these patients have been, are they recorded?"
An official responded: "Yes, I have recorded them all."
"Let me see!"
Li Min took the recorded information.
"Okay, let's focus on disinfecting these places!"
He seemed to have discovered something was wrong.
"Wait, what does this say?"
"There is someone here who was invited to the East Palace for repairs in the morning! Later, he was unable to persist due to illness, so he came back."
Li Min realized something was wrong.
If you say this, then Donggong may fall into the trap.
In East Palace No. 1 Middle School, Li Chengqian may also get sick. Whether he is sick or not has nothing to do with him. He is just worried that Concubine Yang and others will be infected.
So he spoke faster.
"You should immediately let people into the palace and tell His Majesty to seal off the East Palace! Don't let people from the East Palace come out! Then have people bring some lime into the palace for disinfection. After seven days, if no one in the East Palace gets sick, that's all!"
The official was shocked when he heard this.
That's amazing.
If this was not done, the palace might also fall.
By then, I'm afraid nearly a thousand people in the entire palace will die, right?
As the official left to spread the news to people outside, the reason why he could not leave was because his body was not disinfected and he might be carrying the smallpox virus.
Li Min then went down to check on those patients and gave them confidence.
It's heartwarming.
At this time, Sun Simiao seemed to have something to say.
He hesitated to speak.
"Mr. Zili, what should we do next to eradicate smallpox?"
This question has been in his mind for a long time and cannot be dispelled.
Li Min also knew that he really wanted to know, after all, he had boasted about Haikou.
"Well, let's wait until these patients get better and we'll talk about it tomorrow!"
"tomorrow!……"
As for why he waited for tomorrow, Li Min had his own considerations.
Some people haven't gotten sick yet, and we can admit some more people tomorrow and save more people.
At the same time, the cowpox he wants will not be implemented until tomorrow.
At that moment, in the Tai Chi Palace, Li Shimin frowned.
"What did you say? Does he really want five hundred thousand taels?"
