Zhao Han asked again: "Then do you still have any difficulties now?"
"Difficulty? The biggest difficulty is only one thing, and it cannot be solved." Jia Rong sighed.
"What's the matter? Aren't you time travellers? What other difficulties can stump you?" Zhao Han said subconsciously.
"Disease." Jia Rong sighed again.
"Disease? Well, other time-travelers rarely get sick, and they never got sick once from beginning to end." Zhao Han said helplessly.
Fortunately, she also guessed many kinds of difficulties, such as social productivity, stubborn ideas, and human nature. She did not expect that it was a disease.
"Yes, this is the most difficult thing to deal with. I almost fainted several times. Do you remember the first time I got malaria? I almost died." Jia Rong said seriously.
Jia Lian also said: "Yes, illness is indeed a big trouble. Yuan Shao failed largely because he died of illness ten years early. If he were 75 years old, he would have probably killed Cao Cao.
Get down."
Wen Rensheng was listening.
He wanted to say that the example his girlfriend gave was not accurate enough.
Of course, there are aliens in the history of the world of Dongzhou, which is much thinner.
Zheng Chenggong in his previous life was the most unfortunate, as he died of illness at the age of 39.
He followed the path of overseas trade, attracting land refugees, and developing overseas islands.
If you live to the age of 54, you may kill the Manchus.
Because at that time, Wu Sangui rebelled, and Wu Sangui and Zheng Chenggong attacked simultaneously from the south and the east. The Manchu Qing Dynasty might be finished.
And overseas trade can continue.
"Hey, can the teacher cheat me?" Zhao Han asked secretly.
"Why do you always have to cheat? If you don't cheat, you won't be able to play games or do things anymore?" Wen Rensheng said a lesson.
"I know, if I don't open it, I won't open it." Zhao Han said bitterly.
"Be careful of diseases. You are 18 years old this year, I am already 26 years old, and Jia Rong is 19 years old. Many people in ancient times died of illness before the age of 30. Wei Ruolan died of illness early. He was Shi Xiangyun's husband. He was a good character.
He looks good, but it’s a pity.” Jia Lian shook his head.
"Hey, by the way, I remember that Dai Ji and Eunuch Xia are both acting as uncles. We can discuss with them to see what good medicine they have." Zhao Han came up with another idea.
"If there is really good medicine, the emperor will not live so long."
Zhao Han said helplessly: "What should we do?"
"Well, actually we have some measures. One is to focus on pharmaceutical production and make modern medicines by local methods."
"Second, don't get infected. Don't get injured. If you're often at sea, you'll be easily infected by deep-sea bacteria. Modern means can't do anything about it, so don't get any wounds on your body. And don't get bitten by mosquitoes, various small bugs, or heat.
You should also wear more clothes." Jia Rong sighed.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Han shook his head and said, "They are all passive measures."
"Yes. I have no choice but to make do." Jia Lian agreed.
Jia Rong nodded: "I didn't expect that the biggest problem for time travelers is disease. It's all because we are not the protagonists. We live in reality. We can solve other things by ourselves, but we cannot solve this disease."
"Then you still need to exercise more and keep your body in good shape. I will also go find more miracle doctors, foreign miracle doctors and domestic miracle doctors." Zhao Han comforted.
"Forget about the foreign ones. Before modern times, the domestic ones were more reliable. At any rate, because we were in a feudal society, we were not very courageous. The foreign ones were all veterinarians." Jia Lian shook his head.
"Yeah, what kind of soldering iron can cure hemorrhoids, bloodletting is universal, soy sauce can be given to the stomach, and I just had a leg amputated off during surgery, and I went to deliver the baby right away..." Jia Rong said with disdain.
"Yes, now that we all know it, we should establish modern care methods."
"We have been doing this for a long time. We don't have instruments or medicines, but we have people and systems. Our hospitals are equipped with high-grade alcohol disinfection, boiling water disinfection, and sterilization as much as possible."
"Can those anti-inflammatories be made?"
"We have begun to prepare some drugs such as aspirin and salicylic acid that are directly extracted from plants. Manual preparation is extremely expensive, but it is enough if we have it." Jia Rong said.
Jia Lian added: "There is another problem. In order to live longer, we cannot personally lead troops at sea. The death rate at sea these days is too high. I don't know how many generals have died on the way through the ages."
"So is there any problem with this?" Zhao Han asked.
"You are stupid. If we don't personally lead the troops, then the military power will definitely be in the hands of the people below who personally lead the troops. How risky is this?" Jia Rong said helplessly.
"For example, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan all have to personally lead their troops in order to prevent their military power from slipping away."
"Now we can only guarantee it through ideas, supervision by others, and security systems, but they are not the most reliable." Only after Zhao Han heard this did he realize how complicated it is to really succeed in the rebellion.
No wonder this is a way for later generations to see some people's successful rebellion and think it's easy, but if they really want to rebel themselves, it will be too difficult.
"Then how far have you run your business now?"
"We are about to face the big pirate Wang Bolun. He is the next target we must eradicate." Jia Rong became excited.
Fighting is always exciting.
"Wang Bolun? I just dealt with his murder. His desire to control forced his son to fake his own death to escape. This person is definitely difficult to deal with..." Zhao Han told the information he got one by one.
People who are extremely controlling are a nightmare to their children, but they often succeed in their careers.
Because he can control most details, he can ensure the progress of things.
And often ordinary subordinates won't move unless you urge them.
This success in turn strengthened his belief in his method, but he forgot that children and employees are not the same thing.
The latter can be changed at will, and they can leave if they can't withstand the pressure.
But you can't change your children casually. The cost of changing if you can't resist the pressure is too high, unless you are an emperor.
The emperor could not bear the cost of replacing the prince.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "So, it seems that we can use this... to lure the enemy deep enough to make him come over in person." Jia Rong thought for a moment and said.
.
"Yes, the big pirate Wang Bolun must be eliminated. He has hindered the expansion of trade scale and interfered with the efficiency of our resource utilization. Moreover, his robbery has caused our goods to be wasted." Jia Lian nodded.
The three of them discussed it and continued to act against each other.
…………
On the southeastern sea, somewhere on an island lair.
There was feasting and feasting, and people drank and drank.
The pirates cheered each other, and there were many screams inside.
They are entrenched here, and even the imperial court has nothing to do with them.
Most of the pirates who were wiped out in history were killed by their own people and natural disasters.
The court could only control the small pirates by appeasing the big pirates.
Even in modern times, pirates are rampant, let alone this era?
"It turns out that my son is not dead. This unfilial son actually did such a thing to escape me!"
"How good I am to him, how could he not have thought that this unfilial thing, I asked him to become an official on the shore, and he would do such a thing just to escape!" Wang Bolun said angrily to his men.
.
At this moment, one of his subordinates with big gold teeth shouted: "Master, leave your son alone. That man from the Rong Pharmaceutical Company, relying on a clipper like a red-haired ghost, has repeatedly attacked us recently.
They show off their power on the ground, asking us to surrender, and escorting those poor fishermen, so that we can't even collect the money from the usual fish tax."
Big Gold Tooth obviously doesn't know how to wink.
Wang Bolun drew out his knife and slashed at him.
Big Gold Tooth quickly ducked away.
"What kind of bullshit company is trying to do things like the red-haired ghost? I'm afraid of him? Bring the fire boat immediately and burn him for me!" Wang Bolun was not afraid at all.
The red-haired ghost's big ship is powerful, but it's afraid of the fire ship.
But these days, as long as you have two mouths of food, you can find a group of refugees who are not afraid of death.
Let them drive the boat quickly, rush over and set fire to it, and the red-haired ghost will be scared away.
At this time, a white fan said: "Master, we can use the power of the imperial court. I have heard that Rongyao Company has expanded several times, but it has offended many people. They want to monopolize maritime trade, and they only give the imperial court a large amount of money."
Members pay very little money."
"That's because they used their money to raise soldiers. These people obviously want to rebel, which is different from us." Da Jinya said from the side.
"Yes, every time we rob merchant ships recently, they have to come out to rescue people. It affects our fortune too much. We must show them how powerful we are." Another one-eyed pirate shouted.
"Cut them!"
"Cut them!"
Many pirates made noise together.
"Okay, Master, go and see where they are now?"
"The big boss, they live in the land. I've already found out clearly," Bai Fan said, "They are just south of us. It's a three-day smooth sailing trip there."
"It's quite close. No wonder they want us to surrender." Wang Bolun nodded.
The sudden incident made him put aside his son's affairs.
"I think we really need to repair and repair them, otherwise we will not be able to survive these days, Mr. Bai Fanzi said.
"It must be repaired and these bastards killed. Master, how do you think this should be arranged?" Wang Bolun asked again.
"My subordinates thought that we should spend money to find the naval admiral's office first. I heard that Governor Fanyi had already had a problem with them. They make a lot of money every year, but only give the governor 10,000 taels." Bai Fan is confident.
road,
"The governor originally wanted 300,000 taels, but there are people behind them. We can negotiate with the governor. Once we join forces to defeat them, we can let these guys increase the filial piety silver to 300,000 taels."
"They are definitely willing to agree to send troops. When the time comes, they will accuse the Rong Pharmaceutical Company of treason, let them disarm, and capture them without mercy."
"You're right, we'll go out immediately!" Wang Bolun gritted his teeth.
…………
Zhao Han also knew that Governor Fanyi had been restless in the past two years.
After all, Bai Yinzi can defeat the emperor's threats to them, let alone himself.
But they must have refused. After all, they now have guns and cannons. If the governor really doesn't open his eyes, just kill him and replace him with another one.
There is no shortage of officials in the world.
But they hadn't thought that the other party would decisively collude with the pirates.
This morning.
Rong Yao Company's clipper fleet began patrolling several busy routes nearby as usual.
What they protect are their main trading partners, and these trading partners are also willing to give them more money as protection fees.
After all, there is a big difference between merchant ships and warships. They can only be turned into armed merchant ships, which is already very expensive.
The cost is always low if you can let others protect you.
After all, the navy office doesn't work, so we can only protect ourselves.
Zhao Han watched a live broadcast.
Because during this patrol, Jia Rong happened to be on the boat.
He didn't want to go to sea, but this time, he wanted to see how effective the new ship was.
Not long after patrolling along the route, they saw three ships in the distance on the sea, all of which were merchant ships.
They don't have many sailors, their masts are very high, and they mainly run routes in the South China Sea.
Running from land to the South China Sea can be done twice a year.
It's not the kind of big ship that goes directly to the west.
Soon after, a group of fast galleys came from a distance.
They rowed their oars, set up their sails, and when they saw three merchant ships, they started chasing them.
The merchant ship immediately began to flee.
However, there is a headwind at this time.
Their boats are big, so if they want to escape, they have to make a big turn and run downwind before they can escape.
Making turns at sea is very slow. It is not as simple as making a turn on land, and the boat will capsize accidentally.
On the opposite side is a tailwind, and there are rowers.
Being caught up is doomed.
Just as the three merchant ships were making desperate turns, they suddenly became happy.
Because they saw the patrol speedboat of Rongyao Company.
They immediately moved closer to each other's ship.
The patrol speedboat can use the wind from all directions and run against the wind.
Of course, the speed must be slow, but at this time the merchant ships are happy that they don't need to run past the pirates.
Because the speedboat was patrolling, I went up against the pirates.
As long as the merchant ships run past, or meet the patrol boats, they will be safe.
The other party will entangle the pirates.
Sure enough, the patrol speedboat and the pirate's speed galley were fighting together.
Shooting arrows and cannons, throwing lime bottles, burning oil bottles...
However, the fast galley was soon at a disadvantage because the opponent used new cannons with a long range, so they avoided their range and fired.
This is very uncomfortable.
Every time I tried to fight hand to hand, the opponent would run away.
If you want to run away, the other party will chase you.
The pirates quickly retreated.
Choose to escape with the wind, but the direction of escape is towards land.
Jia Rong immediately subconsciously ordered the ships to pursue them, trying to defeat the pirates at once.
It's just that Zhao Han looked a little strange at this time.
But I can't tell why something is wrong.
It can only be attributed to the intuition generated by long-term breakage.
The way pirates act is a bit inconsistent.
"No! Pirates are looking for money. If they just want to rob merchant ships, they should run away immediately if they see a strong opponent."
"They fought for a while before escaping, which means they came here just to fight!"
"Facing a strong enemy, they fought for a while before leaving. So, the truth is that they are luring the enemy deeper!"
Zhao Han quickly asked Xiaohuan to inform Jia Rong.
Jia Rong immediately woke up.
He quickly ordered the ship to stop.
However, a patrol speedboat came aboard. It disobeyed orders and chased after it desperately.
Zhao Han sighed.
She understood that this was the issue of loyalty that friends were talking about.
You don't lead troops all year round, you only train in the rear.
People on the front line just don’t obey you!
This one is that modern teams are difficult to control, let alone ancient times.
