It's just that the plan can't keep up with the changes, especially since the 'Spring Thunder Operation' involves far more than the six counties that have been affected. And this is not to engage in any project or business, but to organize the people to obey the orders and make some people make sacrifices. With the control and organizational ability of Jiangnan Group, it is simply not competent......

So they have to rely on the government, and once they do it, the situation is out of control......

Pan Shujun and Xiang Yuanqi, led the heads of 13 development companies in the Jiahu area, crossed the Taihu Lake by boat on a starry night, and returned to Jiaxing County, the capital of Jiaxing Prefecture, and Wucheng County, the capital of Huzhou Prefecture. They met with the two prefects separately and presented a letter from Zhao Gongzi.

'Autographed letter' is abbreviated, and the full name is 'Zhao Gongzi's autographed letter ghostwritten by Secretary Ma'.

Jiaxing Huzhou is the main production area of raw silk in the south of the Yangtze River, the silk weaving industry accounts for even more than seventy percent, the two prefects are at a loss for the spread of silkworm disease and the spring silkworm harvest.

Moreover, in order to avoid being compared to the festival by the Jiangnan Group, the two lords of the prefecture still generously expressed their support for the exemption of the Ding service silver in the six counties affected by the disaster this year.

At the same time, Tongzhi and Tongju were dispatched to the county with tickets to supervise the anti-epidemic matters in each county.

Naturally, the magistrates of the affected counties were more active, and demanded that all the officials at all levels of the yamen cooperate with each other and not slack off.

The prefect only failed by a third of the harvest, and he was in a hurry. They're all facing a dead harvest! The spring silkworm has been abolished, if the summer and autumn silkworms are sparse again, the people have to be hungry, and there will be a big mess at that time!

Even those neighboring counties that were not affected by the disaster were very active...... They sent officials and people to set up barriers on the water and land roads at the junction with the six disaster-stricken counties, and strictly guarded them, preventing any silkworm-related goods from flowing out of the six counties.

Later, the nearby villagers found out and spontaneously joined the ranks of the blockade of the six counties. The white-haired old man carried the Daguan knife, and the pigtailed child held a red tassel gun, vigilantly watching every country road that might pass people. And took the initiative to raise the quarantine standard to the point where no one or anything is allowed to enter the county!

Even the house sparrows that flew out of the six counties were shot down with slingshots by people from neighboring counties. It fully embodies the noble sentiment of 'dead friends do not die poorly'.

The six counties that were locked down were naturally annoyed. Especially those traders who do not raise silkworms and do not engage in the silk weaving industry, as well as the people who go out to visit their relatives, are blocked for no reason, and even have a home that cannot be returned, they must jump to their feet and scold their mothers.

The officials also took a clear stand to safeguard the interests of the county, but instead of playing a role in extinguishing the fire, they made the anger of both sides bigger and bigger. As time passed, more and more people gathered at the county line, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.

This scene caught Pan, Xiang and others by surprise, they didn't expect that it was just a blockade of silkworm-related items, but it turned into a complete all-round blockade in a blink of an eye. Then it evolved into a confrontation between counties, and it may even lead to a civil uprising!

This frightened them, and they hurriedly ordered all the development companies in each county to go out in an effort to reassure the people of the county, persuade them to calm down, and send people to separate the two sides to prevent conflict. While urgently reporting to Zhao Gongzi.

In order to facilitate the command and response, Zhao Hao has come to Wuzhen, Tongxiang County, on the border between Jiaxing and Huzhou. This place is located at the junction of two provinces, three governments and seven counties, and the traffic is the most convenient. The imperial court also set up a branch office of Zhejiang Province here, which was responsible for patrolling salt and catching thieves, and also handled local lawsuits. However, the year before last, it had been laid off because of the elimination of the banditry......

Jiangnan Bank has a branch here and is also in charge of the two sub-branches. Zhao Hao set up his headquarters next door to the Wuzhen branch, and used the powerful communication system of Jiangnan Bank to receive news from all over the country in a timely manner and issue orders.

After seeing this urgent report, Zhao Gongzi frowned and said to Wang Mengxiang: "It seems that the foreplay is seriously insufficient, and one by one it has been brutally done." ”

"It's really not lubricated enough, but this kind of thing, you have to take advantage of the ignorance to carry out a surprise attack." Wang Mengxiang disagreed: "The people can make it, but they can't know it." Childe broke it with them and crumpled it and said that they should obey the overall situation and obey the arrangement. It doesn't change their focus on their own interests and convenience. ”

"It's ......," Zhao Hao couldn't help but smile bitterly. Indeed, if they had been notified in advance, those squires and merchants would have rushed to leave the six affected counties before the blockade. Moreover, those silkworm-related materials are designated to be sold at low prices, and they will not wait to be blocked in the county and resigned to fate.

"The key now is not to cause a popular uprising, otherwise many people will take advantage of the topic and join us." Wang Mengxiang also smiled bitterly, but his worries were different from Zhao Hao's. "The bearded man has changed the Nanjing Kedao all over again, and the new ones are basically his students, so you have to guard against it."

Gao Gong is the chief examiner of Jiajing's 44-year examination, and many of his protégés have served as county magistrates or directors for one term, and have the qualifications to be promoted to the department. Whether it is in the matter or supervising the imperial history, it is selected by the officials, and there is no need for the secretary to put a beak. It was the protégés who entered the hall one after another and became prosecutors with a bright future...... Oh no, Officer Kodao.

The reason why he arranged them in Nanjing instead of Beijing was mainly because when Gao Gong entered Beijing last year, he had said that he would not retaliate first, so it was inconvenient to immediately attack the Wang Wang team in Beijing. They can only be allowed to make a transition in Nanjing first, and then find an opportunity to transfer to Beijing.

The disciples of Gao Gong want to repay the master, and the second is to perform well and strive for progress. The desire and ability to fight are very unsettling. And the elephant in the room of the Jiangnan Group is difficult to avoid becoming the target of their attack......

~~

The two sighed for a while, and after Gao Gong made a comeback, the pressure was stronger than the day, so they convened a meeting with Yu Ben and others to discuss four countermeasures.

First, all silkworm-related materials in the six affected counties were purchased by Jiangnan Group at market prices before disposal.

Second, all people, trucks, and ships that have nothing to do with silkworms can leave the six counties affected by the disaster, but they must be thoroughly disinfected...... Can the soil potion configured by spraying be completely disinfected, this Zhao Hao did not dare to pack the ticket. But as long as the people in neighboring counties can think that they have been thoroughly disinfected.

Third, Jiangnan Group and its subsidiaries will ensure that the prices of the affected counties are stable during the quarantine period and there will be no shortage of materials.

Fourth, workers who cannot go out due to quarantine are temporarily employed by Jiangnan Group to join the anti-epidemic work.

These three countermeasures were announced, and the squires tried their best to appease them, and the people of the counties settled down temporarily......

The anti-epidemic work has finally been steadily advanced.

In the three counties of Tongxiang in Jiaxing Province, Ma Yilong led 800 agricultural technicians, with the assistance of the shareholders of the development company, and began to sanitize village by village.

The agricultural technicians wore large cotton masks, put the disinfectant prepared by Ma Yilong into wooden barrels, carried them on their backs, and sprayed them everywhere with bamboo pump sprayers, in the courtyard of the house, in front of the house, behind the house, and in the field. The mulberry field is even more focused on taking care of, and every mulberry tree is washed once, regardless of the cost.

And the silkworm room where silkworm babies live is the top priority of sanitizing. All silkworm tools are not missing, and there are no dead corners on the ground, roof, and corners.

In addition to spraying, silkworm farmers also follow the instructions to sweep away the dust and plug the holes; Rinse indoors and outdoors with clean water; The floor of the silkworm house is scraped and cleaned; Then use 20% lime mortar to whiten the interior and exterior walls, and the indoor ceiling and floor are not spared.

Finally, it is disinfected with sulfur cypress smoke once, then the door is closed, the seal is affixed, and it is opened before the summer silkworm breeds.

The agricultural technicians repeatedly told the silkworm farmers not to move the silkworm tools outdoors for other purposes in the future, and not to wash them with water. Do a good job of special items, and do not take unsterilized objects to the silkworm room at will, so as not to infect the silkworm room with germs.

When silkworm farmers enter the studio, it is best to wear special work clothes, cloth caps and masks, and wash their hands before touching silkworm tools...... I hope that these silkworm farmers who have suffered big losses can learn a lesson and begin to learn scientific and hygienic silkworm raising.

It's definitely a lot of work. Although the 800-person sanitizing team looks like a lot, in the three counties of Jiaxing alone, there are more than 500 natural villages and more than 100,000 silkworm raising families.

Ma Yilong has very high requirements for sanitizing, and every household in every village must achieve 'three kills and seven without leakage', with full coverage and no dead ends. As a result, it would be nice to be able to sanitize two villages in one day.

Zhao Hao looked at it, this is not good. By the end of the year, all three counties could not be completed......

persuaded Ma Yilong to speed up, but he insisted on the view of 'hanging on to the omission of one and abandoning all the previous efforts', and resolutely disagreed.

The leading group had to change the order again, and let the agricultural technicians, who were already skilled workers, train and supervise the silkworm farmers to sanitize themselves.

At this time, the epidemic prevention materials supported by the brother counties were also continuously sent to the six affected counties, and a boatload of quicklime, slaked lime and slaked lime, as well as barrels and barrels of wood essence from Xishan Island, did have the conditions for the operation of the large corps in terms of materials.

Ma Yilong finally agreed.

As a result, the agricultural technicians finally did not have to carry wooden barrels to spray everywhere all day, and they had to practice the unicorn arm. The two of them were in charge of a village, spending all day training silkworm farmers, then spending all day supervising them to sanitize themselves, and finally spending all day accepting and filling gaps.

As a result, the sanitize work in the three counties of Jiaxing was completed in three days, and the results were only to be tested when raising summer silkworms......

Jiaxing is quite simple, but Huzhou is much more troublesome.

From the day the team arrived, everyone began to fight against the moths.

Li Shizhen first ordered all silkworm farmers to make their own net cages with mosquito nets and bamboo strips, and caught all their silkworm moths into cages.

And separate the male and female. Only female moths are pretended to be female moths, and male moths are only pretended to be male moths, and male and female moths are never allowed to be mixed, so as not to hold them back, wipe the gun and go off the rails, and lay silkworm eggs in advance.

The two rabbits walked on the ground, and they could still tell that I was a male and female. How can ordinary people distinguish between male and female of this fluttering moth?
