In the blink of an eye, Shen Tang made a decision.
Her first reaction was to turn around and tell Xu Jie.
"Wen Zhu will stay in Fugu for a few more days."
Xu Jie stood up and was about to get up, and said angrily: "What does Mr. Shen mean by this? Not to mention whether it is an epidemic or not, even if it is, does Mr. Shen think that the disease and illness are brought by us from the upper south?"
He actually wanted to detain him.
Shen Tang asked back: "If it is really an epidemic, are Wenzhu prepared to run around with the disease and spread poison everywhere?"
The young man has a somewhat adult appearance, his eyes are firm, and his tone is unquestionable and tough that cannot be refuted.
"Xu Wenzhu! If it is really an epidemic, even if we die, you and I will die in Fugu City!" After the words fell, without waiting for Xu Jie's mood and reaction at this time, Shen Tang comforted Lin Feng with a gentle voice, "Ling De, don't panic ! First move those people to the vacant rooms in the jail."
She also summoned several blue birds with sleek feathers.
They fluttered their wings toward the sky vigorously.
"Send my order to seal the city!"
Shen Tang was not sure if it was an epidemic that was raging in Shangnan Village, but if he found an excuse first - such as catching the absconding gangsters - it would be okay to close the city for a while. If it turned out that she was making a fuss, it would be fine soon. Exposed this matter.
Ordinary people may not even notice such details.
On their way to Chu Yao and others after receiving the message from Blue Bird, Shen Tang waited for news outside the small courtyard where they were staying.
Not long after, two doctors, one old and one young, came out.
Shen Tang stepped forward and asked: "Mr. Dong, how is the situation?"
Yu Zi and others vomited blood and fell to the ground, so Lin Feng sent someone to invite them over. Both of them are doctors practicing medicine outside. They are not only master and apprentice, but also grandfather and grandson. They make a living by treating common people's headaches and fever. .
Especially the old one among them, when he was young, he worked as an apprentice to the retired imperial doctor of the Medical Department. He served him respectfully for several years regardless of whether it was cold or hot, and then he impressed the old imperial doctor. ability.
However, he was born into a poor family and did not have a family background that he could show off. The common people who came to him for medical treatment were poor and often could not afford even a few dollars for medical treatment. The old man felt pity for the common people and would often waive their medical fees, and occasionally even reimburse them. A few patches of medicine.
Lived in poverty.
At the turn of winter and spring, many people fell ill, and Shen Tang discovered that there was not even a decent medical center in such a big city like Fugu. The common people either had to endure the illness or resorted to home remedies to treat their illnesses.
She thought it was no good, so she asked someone to look for it.
When some famous doctors heard that it was a poor place like Heyin Fugu, they refused to move here and open a medical clinic. Even if Shen Tang promised to build a medical clinic for free and give him a courtyard, he would not agree. He is a doctor in the medical clinic. Distressed, Gu Chi brought back these two grandsons from a business trip and said they were picked up while drinking tea on the roadside. At that time, the old man was diagnosing the pulse of an old beggar woman.
Gu Chi took a look at him.
I sent them an offer of Fugu City on the spot.
Dr. Dong didn't reject it outright like other doctors. He dealt with poor people the most. In the past few months, he often heard from them how Heyin County Governor Shen Jun loved his people like his own children. Since Shen Jun came here, Heyin has completely changed.
Only then did he realize why he had always received consultation fees for his recent medical visits, and even had less reimbursement for medicine...
The co-authorship is all due to Shen Jun.
Upon hearing that Gu Chi was a subordinate of Shen Tang's county government, Dr. Dong agreed without much hesitation. The next day, he was respectfully taken to Fugu in a carriage, and the old beggar was also brought back conveniently. I got a job as a sweeper at a hospital.
The governor of the county, Shen Jun, met him personally.
When has Dr. Dong ever seen such a battle?
He was not a medical doctor, so he was overwhelmed and flattered by the battle.
But Shen Tang also had a purpose in doing this.
Dr. Dong and his grandson opened a medical clinic in Fugu City, and their main task was to treat the common people who came to visit them.
When you see a common person, you can receive a subsidy from the municipal government. If you visit a doctor, you can also get an additional "travel expense", which is equivalent to the municipal government paying the medical fee and the medical fee for the common people.
People still have to pay for medicines themselves.
Shen Tang also captured a group of children for Dr. Dong.
These are apprentices.
Chu Yao had several objections to this act.
They knew that Shen Tang felt that there were too few doctors in Fugu City, and he couldn't find two even if he begged grandpa and grandma. He was annoyed, so he simply trained them himself. Not to mention how much time and effort it took to train doctors, Dr. Dong was just a Big problem.
Dr. Dong was an apprentice when he was young, and he treated the old imperial doctor respectfully as his own father. He worked hard for many years before being relieved, and he learned his true skills bit by bit. He also wants to pass this skill on to his grandson.
To put it bluntly, this is already a family tradition.
Who is willing to teach someone who is not a close relative by blood or who is better than a close relative by blood? To teach his skills to a group of strange apprentices for nothing? A master should keep a hand when leading his apprentices.
Dr. Dong was not willing at first.
Shen Tang didn't say anything, but Xingye came to persuade him.
At that time, Dr. Dong used the dim and smelly oil lamp to see the pair of eyes that were brighter than the oil lamp, and was moved by the young man's sincerity. He sympathized with the suffering of the people, and what Mr. Shen did was also to benefit more people. common people.
A little love, a big love.
How can he be selfish with his old bones?
Shen Tang is not a stingy boss who likes to take advantage. He not only used ideological attacks to occupy the moral high ground, but also used "playing his favour" offensive, such as giving Dr. Dong a few volumes of medical books.
Shen Tang doesn't have this thing, but others do.
The top literati are mobile hard drives!
When Qishan and Kang were praying for good health, they both flipped through the remaining volumes of "Nongsang Ji Yao" in their spare time. The former could silently silence three volumes, and the latter added one volume backhand. Chu Yao was even able to silence five volumes of "Qi Min" "Essential Techniques", you must know that it only has ten volumes and ninety-two chapters in total!
If these literary scholars picked them up and shook them, they could always produce several volumes of medical books that impressed Dr. Dong.
Dr. Dong was in front: "I've met Mr. Shen."
The grandson and apprentice behind him followed suit and saluted.
Shen Tang said: "No courtesy."
Dr. Dong asked: "Mr. Shen, can you lend me a moment to speak?"
Shen Tang's heart sank slightly: "Of course you can."
Dr. Dong did not tell Yu Zi and others about their illnesses, but asked her if she knew about the epidemic that had occurred in Heyin.
"Know."
This incident happened two years before Shen Tang took office, and she was deeply impressed - when dealing with the Zhang family issue in Heyin, the Zhang family head's brother sent his servants to deceive the suffering people, falsely claiming that he had good medicine in his hands, but there was still a lack of it. Blindly using drugs and requiring the cooperation of ordinary people's sons and daughters, through this method, more than 20 innocent children were killed and escaped unharmed, causing widespread resentment among the people.
"Did the two epidemics come from the same source?"
The wrinkles and ridges on Dr. Dong's face are getting deeper and deeper.
He said heavily: "Yes, the symptoms are almost exactly the same."
"Almost unanimous?"
"Does that mean there are still some inconsistencies?"
Doctor Dong: "It's more dangerous than before."
Shen Tang: "..."
Simply put, is it the PLUS version of the last epidemic?
"How were you cured last time? Are there any medical records left?"
Dr. Dong shook his head and told a shocking truth: "No one has been cured, and no one who contracted the disease survived. Seven out of ten doctors who came because of the documents issued by the county died..."
The two villages where the epidemic broke out were cordoned off by the county government, and only healthy people could come out alive.
Dr. Dong did not participate in that recruitment.
The specific situation was also told by the surviving doctors.
He was sure that this epidemic was related to the last one. Perhaps the disease had been dormant for two or three years and had come back again, making the disease more dangerous and rapid. As the county governor, Shen Tang should make up his mind as soon as possible and think about the people of the city. .
Shen Tang took a deep breath.
She said: "I know."
People were asked to investigate the targets that Yu Zi and others had come into contact with, and Fugu City was divided and isolated into several areas that were not connected to each other. Each area was not allowed to wander around at will. Soldiers were guarding the intersections with weapons, and those who had fallen ill were placed there. At the detention center, those who have been exposed will be placed in another observation area, and the rest will continue to live as usual to avoid contact with new refugees.
The four gates of Fugu.
Close both lanes.
One is used for people's daily work in and out, and the other is used to transfer people who have shown signs of the epidemic into the epidemic area.
Although the current medical technology is not very developed, the hard-working and intelligent people have gradually developed a set of epidemic prevention experiences, such as burning grass to expel insect pathogens, fumigating mugwort, washing hands, and even knowing how to place patients together and separate them after an epidemic is discovered. With healthy people, deploy manpower in the areas where the epidemic occurs to isolate the common people infected with the disease from running around...
Doctors will save you if they can.
Can't save——
That can only close the infected area and wait for the lesions to kill all the hosts.
Dr. Dong has been in contact with patients and knows that as a doctor, he cannot leave here. He has no trouble in his heart. However, seeing that Shen Tang has no intention of leaving, he is about to step into the house where the patient is placed. He stops him: "Shen Jun should not Stay here."
Shen Tang's attitude was firm: "As the governor of Heyin County, if I don't stay in the government office to take charge of the overall situation, then where should I stay? After all, literary scholars still have literary spirit to protect their bodies. If the epidemic is so dangerous that even I can be defeated, I will be even more Can’t leave!”
"Can……"
"I'll go in and take a look!"
Before he even entered the house, he stopped.
She turned around and told Lin Feng who was following behind her: "Lingde, go to the warehouse and count how much kudzu there is, and bring it all out! Then send a message to Mr. Yang at the department store, and bring out the kudzu there too... If you still have it... If it’s not enough, go to the people’s homes to collect it!”
Kudzu is a commonly used fabric for common people to make clothes.
If the family is a little richer, or if the female family members are good at craftsmanship, they can get a few horses together.
"Why does Mr. Lang need so much kudzu?"
Shen Tang: “Used to make masks.”
Who knows how this epidemic spreads.
Put on the mask first.
"Face mask?"
Lin Feng didn't know what it was.
But according to the literal meaning, it is probably similar to a veil? It’s just that the veil covers the face, and this thing is used to cover the mouth?
Shen Tang said: "Isn't it written in the Book of Rites that you cover your mouth to prevent the breath from touching others? The mask is to isolate and filter the breath between people, otherwise the turbid breath exhaled by the patient will be inhaled by someone who is not sick. , even those who are not sick can become infected.”
Dr. Dong's eyes lit up and he said in surprise: "I came across a fragment of a scroll many years ago. There are records from the sages on it - epidemic people feel the malaise of heaven and earth, the amount of luck in the year, the thickness in the corners, and the differences in the four seasons. Ups and downs! When this qi comes, no matter old or young, strong or weak, those who touch it will become ill, and evil will enter from the mouth and nose! Lord Shen wants to use a mask to block the qi, and it is indeed feasible!"
