The two joint declarations are already on their way to their destinations.

And in the council chamber, what Tepes had to say was far from finished.

Under normal circumstances, when he is not cheating, Cepes's expression is very serious.

He said with a serious expression and a solemn tone:

"Don't think about those two statements again, and I'll tell you how to get rid of the seeds sown by the Plague Knight in the water."

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, from the "New Testament Revelation of the Bible", since they want to use the energy of religion to maintain domestic stability, then simply carry it out to the end.

In the Bible, the knight of the red horse represents war; Dark Horse Knight, representing famine; The Green Horse Knight, representing death; The knight of the white horse, representing the plague.

In a nutshell, none of the four of them is a good thing, and it's better to roll as far as you can.

Throughout Europe, after the outbreak of the Black Death, religious figures often preached that water was unclean.

The cause of the uncleanness is that the damned Plague Knight has sown the seeds of plague and disease in the water.

Every year, there are always many civilians who can't afford to drink beer, because drinking dirty water, which eventually leads to death, and can even trigger a small-scale epidemic.

With the scientific knowledge of this era, people are not able to solve this problem, or even understand the reasons for it.

If someone asks them who can remove uncleanness from the water, all will give you the same answer, God.

At this moment, Tsepes said that he was able to solve the problem of safe drinking water, which just confirmed his previous words.

All the nobles present, including those who were very depressed and surrendered, were all excited when they heard the news.

All of them spontaneously fell to one knee and looked at Cepes with reverence.

"Your Excellency, I beg you to leave it to us what we can do to make the water pure."

"I beg the Grand Duke to impart knowledge!"

The people spoke one after another, eagerly awaiting Tsepes's teachings.

However, Tsepeš did not rush to teach them, but said half-jokingly:

"Now, do you think it's a loss to sign the joint statement?"

"No loss! This is God's guidance, and it is the best choice we have ever made in our lives! ”

The voices of the crowd sounded again, including those who surrendered, and they said this from the bottom of their hearts.

Tsepes nodded in satisfaction, then snapped his fingers and waited for the waiter to bring him the bill he had written.

However, after more than ten seconds, there was still no movement, and he turned his head to look, and saw that the waiter who was in charge of delivering the documents was in tears at this moment.

The weeping waiter's name was Roseth, his father and younger brother, who died of a small plague caused by drinking water.

So when he heard that Cepes had a way to purify the water, he couldn't suppress his emotions for a while and fell into his current state.

"Rosyth, bring the papers, don't waste time."

As the ruler of Wallachia, it was impossible for Cepes to know the past of a small waiter.

He looked at Rosace's tearful face and knew that there must be a story in it, but now was definitely not the time to listen to it.

He must have majesty in front of all the nobles, so he urged Roseth, who burst into tears, in a stern tone.

It's not that he's unkind, it's that he wants to maintain the image of an iron-blooded leader.

Ross, who was caught up in painful memories, was immediately pulled back to reality.

Then, following the example of the waiter who had given the quills earlier, he knelt on the ground and crawled over with his body hunched.

Tsepes took the stack of papers that Rosyth was holding in both hands, looked through them, organized the language, and then talked about the issue of safe water.

"God says that in order for the plague to go, four conditions need to be observed.

First, protect the water source, within 50 meters of the water source, it is forbidden to defecate and dispose of garbage.

In this regard, I plan to enact a water source protection law that will severely punish those who defecate or throw garbage near water sources.

The first time he was caught, he was fined fifty deniers, and the second time he was caught, and he was given ten lashes in public.

As for the third time to be caught, you say, will it be too harsh to be hanged? ”

"It should be burned at the stake!"

Over the years, Apaca has used the name of God to barbecue big living people, so he shouted without thinking.

"I think that the first time I was caught, I would just hang him, and I couldn't give the plague a chance to spread."

Compared to Apaca, the nobles below seem to be more merciful, and at least they will suffer much less if they are hanged.

God says to give people a chance to change their ways, and to be kind to others.

Just do as I say, the third time the person who is caught, hanged. ”

Under the influence of the environment, compared to the leg of lamb when he first came to the Middle Ages, Tsepes's character and ideas are more in line with this dark age.

Then, he looked at the document again and continued:

"Safe drinking water is the second, simple filtration and safe transportation.

To put it simply, the water source is clean, but the Plague Knight can't be allowed to do anything underwater during transportation.

Buckets, basins, etc., must be kept clean, and toilets for feces must not be used to hold drinking water.

And on a regular basis, all the water containers should be cleaned and then exposed to the sun for half a day, so that the Plague Knight will not be able to do it.

As for filtration, I don't need to say more, when making wine, you need to filter out the particulate impurities in it. ”

This one sounds a bit silly, but it should never be underestimated, the living habits of people in this era.

A bucket, just filled with dung, turned around and washed casually, and brought water to drink, there will definitely be people in this era.

"The third and most important point that God told me was that before you drink water, you have to heat it until it boils.

The power of the flame destroys all plague seeds and removes the unclean in the water. ”

The nobles listened intently to Tsepes's teachings and memorized every word he said.

At this time, someone suddenly asked:

"Your Royal Highness, don't you burn people to death if you boil the fire with water until it is boiling hot and then drink it?"

"Shut up, I'm saying that boiling water can destroy the plague seed, and I didn't let you drink it directly.

After boiling the water, put it in a clean container, and even if it is cooled, the water is still safe to drink.

In particular, from now on, if the civilians of the territory light fire to boil water, it is not considered to be used for no reason, and you are not allowed to tax them. ”

The law stipulates that ignition of a fire for no reason is subject to tax to the lord.

This is a high tax, but to a certain extent, it reduces the occurrence of fires.

Therefore, Tsepes did not remove this tax, but counted boiling water as a daily necessity.

The lords had no opinion on this, and it was not a substantial loss to them.

"Finally, God told me that bathing in boiling water, and after washing, drying your body in time and wearing warm clothes, will not cause disease."

It's not easy, with God's guidance, I can finally take a bright bath in the future!

After saying the four precautions, Cepes was a little excited in his heart, safe water, in addition to benefiting the country and the people, can also save his respiratory system.

Finally, Tsepes added very solemnly:

"The most important thing is that you are not allowed to eat bats, whoever eats them will be burned directly at the stake!"
