Although the plague did not continue to spread due to various measures and environmental reasons, a large number of people still die from the plague every day in the area where the plague is located.

Some of them are not spared by the whole village, and they are extremely miserable.

All the doctors have tried their best to develop a medicine that can effectively treat the plague, but this time the plague is so terrible that so many doctors have gathered together and have not been able to develop an effective medicine, and the people in the entire disaster area are in dire straits, and they don't know when they will die from this raging demon.

Even Chenjia Village has been affected, and there are a lot of unfortunate news in the town, such as the severity of the drought, the number of victims, and the raging plague, etc., it is said that the recent city has been closed to avoid the introduction of the plague, and the town has also begun to impose martial law, restricting the entry and exit of outsiders to avoid the plague from coming here.

Although no cases of plague have been found here, but prevention is better than prevention, coupled with the horror of the plague, so that everyone has some palpitations, even the villagers of Chenjia Village have held a village meeting, hoping that all families, it is best not to leave the village again recently, so as not to enter the plague, that is the god of death, if you provoke almost no life, if one person is provoked, the whole village will suffer, so under the supervision of the whole village, after entering the town for the last time to buy what you need, The entire Chenjia Village stayed in the village and did not go out.

Old man Chen at the head of the village also boiled herbal soup and gave it to the people in the village to drink to strengthen their resistance and avoid getting sick.

Chen Yu was also worried, so he took out a ginseng that he had harvested that had evolved into an elixir, got a few whiskers, boiled a pot of medicinal soup, and gave it to his family. It's not that Chen Yu is too stingy, but that there are too many family members who can't stand it, after all, they are ordinary people, and if they have more, they will explode and die.

A small amount can strengthen the body and improve resistance, so the terrible plague will not easily make the family sick.

It's a pity that Chen Yu doesn't know medical skills, otherwise he can develop a special medicine for the plague, Chen Yu has so many medicinal materials in his space, it's really a waste. It's a pity that Chen Yu just wants to learn medical skills, and he doesn't have that condition, after all, there is no one nearby who is very good at medicine, even Old Man Chen, who just knows more about herbs.

In the future, I will have the opportunity to buy some medical books to read, although I don't expect to become a famous doctor, but it is still good to know a little medical science.

I don't know if there are any medical books sold in the town, but if there is, then you can buy them and learn by the way.

The yams on the mountain have matured, and it was originally planned to let the whole village enter this excavation operation, but now all families are afraid of contracting the plague, so they don't go out, and the shopkeeper of the Zuixianlou also said that because of the plague, this year's yam will not be purchased much, at most a ton, after all, the business of the Zuixianlou is affected today, and they dare not organize a convoy to go to the place where the plague is raging.

Therefore, Chen Yu's family can only do it themselves, but fortunately, yams can also be eaten as food, and it is not a waste to dig them back. Anyway, it will grow next year.

But so many yams, dug back and piled up into a small mountain, this time the shopkeeper of the drunken fairy building only pulled away 1 ton, and the rest of the Chen family can't eat it by themselves, although the yam can be put for several months, but it's a pity that so many don't eat it and rot.

Even if it is distributed to the villagers, it can't be eaten, but soon the troubles of the Chen family will be gone, because the price of food has risen again and again, and the yam can be used as a grain thing, and the Chen family has sold all of them except for some left by their own family, because of the drunken immortal building, the yam has been known, so the selling price is still very high, especially at this time, when the price of food is very expensive, many people feel that it is better to buy a rare thing like yam to eat.

Anyway, yams can also withstand hunger, and they can also make vegetable stews, which is really a good thing. Of course, people can come to Chenjia Village, or because of the shopkeeper of Zuixianlou, although because it cannot be shipped to other places, the shopkeeper of Zuixianlou can't buy too much, but other grain merchants have no worries. Under the introduction of the shopkeeper of the drunken fairy building, he came to Chenjia Village.

Now that the drought has not been resolved, the plague is raging again, and there is no unpopular food, so the Chen family's yams were quickly sold out, and even the ones that were originally intended to be kept for themselves were sold. This time, the yam was sold for a total of 320 taels of silver, in addition to the fact that the Chen family deliberately sowed more wild yam than in previous years, and the reason why the price of the yam was also increased because of the disaster.

Of course, the Chen family also knows that there will be no such good things in the future, but this year's harvest is still very satisfying. After dividing the silver, the Chen family was beaming.

Soon it is the season to harvest grain again, because of the drought, this year's grain production has been significantly reduced, although the villagers of Chenjia Village, has been very careful, but manpower has never been able to compete with nature, this year's output is only about half of previous years.

However, the situation in Chenjia Village is quite good, there are many places where there is no harvest, and in the places where the plague is raging, many people are in danger, and the people of Chenjia Village are already very lucky in comparison.

It's just that the grain production has been reduced, and there is basically nothing left in the family after paying taxes, and for those poor families, they can't survive at all, unless they sell their fields, they can tide over the difficulties, but after selling the fields, the days are even more difficult, and the village is a little gloomy for a while.

Fortunately, there is no endless road, and the imperial court also knows that it is unlikely that the affected areas will pay taxes this year, and if they really have to pay, then there will be no other effect except forcing out more displaced people, so the imperial court ordered that the disaster areas be exempted from paying taxes for three years.

This time there is a natural disaster and a plague, a lot of people have died, and it is not over, there will definitely be a lot of ownerless fields at that time, and when the plague and drought are over, the imperial court will definitely re-register, after all, this time so many people are displaced, and the identity problem will be re-registered when this matter is over, which is also a common practice.

For those displaced people who have nothing, the imperial court will even divide the houses and fields, so that the people can have a foundation for survival. Of course, this is limited to major natural disasters, and those small disasters can be solved by local officials on their own, and of course this disaster can be counted as a major disaster.

Regarding the imperial court's decree of tax exemption for three years in the disaster area, all the people said that the saint was merciful, and now he can live well.

The villagers of Chenjia Village are also exempt from taxes, so when they got the news, the whole village was very happy, and if it weren't for the drought and the plague that is raging now, the villagers would definitely be celebrating in a big way.
