Chapter 55: Applying Pesticides

Tried and tested.

After the bone meal has been irradiated by the Buddha's light relics for six hours, depending on the severity of the patient's condition, age, and body type, a dose of about two cents to one penny can be taken to cause the ghost fingers to fall off on their own within a quarter of an hour.

And because the overall process discomfort is light, except for the children who have little to do, there is no need for others to take care of them.

August 15 of the 40th year of Jiajing.

Before dawn, Shuntianfu, which was eager to control the epidemic in the city and atone for its sins, dispatched people to walk the streets and alleys, and passed the news that the imperial court had a method of exorcising evil spirits and curing diseases, and from now on, it began to give free medicine to thousands of households in Sichengfang Dashi East Street.

After a morning of fermentation, by noon, there were thousands of people queuing in front of Zhao Wenhua's old residence, almost blocking half of the street.

In fact, more than half of the people here are not infected, in case of the Mid-Autumn Festival, but when they came to the door of the Zhao Mansion, they just wanted to get some medicine back in advance, so as to be prepared.

On the front steps of the door.

Gao Shiliang, who was wearing the uniform of Dongchang, roughly recorded the name, surname, and household registration of the woman opposite, then turned around and scooped a spoonful of bone meal, and poured it into the woman's cloth pocket across the table.

Seeing this, Colonel Jinyiwei at the bottom of the steps immediately raised his voice and shouted:

"Next!"

When a thin man heard the greeting, he hurriedly nodded and walked up the steps, thanking him without saying anything: "Thank you to the official and the court for your life!" ”

Gao Shiliang ignored him, wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, got up and went to Liu Quan's side, and complained in a suppressed voice: "Liu Baihu, when will it be a head if it goes on like this?" Anyway, there is still a lot of medicine, or you go and talk to Wang Baihu, and then add some more people to administer medicine. ”

At present, on this long street, there are as many as three or four hundred officials and brocade guards who are responsible for maintaining order.

But there are only four people who are responsible for administering medicine to save people, Ge Changfeng, Zhu Bingzhong, Liu Quan, and Gao Shiliang, and it is no wonder that Gao Shiliang will complain.

But when Liu Quan heard this, he immediately turned around and rolled his eyes at him: "Are you really stupid or fake stupid?" There are so many people who don't need it, just let a few of us apply the medicine, just to make a name for the East Factory! ”

"I'm afraid that the above are all desperate, this medicine will be administered until the end of the month, and you are proposing to send more people now, isn't it boring to ask for yourself?"

After speaking, he saw that Gao Shiliang was submissive in his mouth, but there was still dissatisfaction on his face.

It's really rotten wood that can't be carved!

Liu Quan sighed helplessly, and said in a suppressed voice: "Besides, this is also a great thing for you." ”

"A good thing?"

Gao Shiliang frowned when he heard this, and muttered angrily: "More than a dozen people in my family are waiting to be fed......

"That's what I'm talking about!"

Liu Quan interrupted him unceremoniously, and then bowed to the door of the mansion: "Look at that kid......"

Gao Shiliang took advantage of the situation and saw Li Gao carrying a noodle pocket, sneakily went to the door, stuffed his left thumb and index finger into his mouth, and whistled loudly.

At that moment, a few brocade guards and servants came up to meet him, surrounded him and pushed and scrambled for a long time, and when he dispersed, the originally full face pocket became empty.

This is......

"They're reselling elixir?! No wonder we are allowed to record our names, and people are not allowed to resell them without permission! ”

Gao Shiliang almost shouted angrily.

Liu Quan hurriedly made a silent gesture, and said in a suppressed voice: "There are thousands of people, there are always masters who are unwilling to queue up - rest assured, when the money is divided at night, our share will definitely be indispensable." ”

After a pause, he looked at him playfully: "How is it, are you still too slow now?" ”

Gao Shiliang's eyes shone brightly, and he pursed his lips and said, "Or...... Let's deliberately delay and procrastinate? ”

"Don't! You still want to make a name for yourself, don't be bored at this time. ”

…………

There are two flowers, one on each branch.

said that at the same time that Gao Shiliang was full of energy and started to distribute medicine again.

Wang Shouye, who had just led Zhao Kui and Ma Biao to transport a batch of bone meal from the inner courtyard, also received a report from Zhao Hongyu.

said that in the morning, Li Wei found Zhao Hongyu, who was in charge of guarding the bone meal, and said that he was bumped into by the neighbors at the door, but he couldn't shirk it, so he had to promise to help ask for some elixir and send it directly to the workshop for distribution.

After all, he is Wang Shouye's uncle.

Zhao Hongyu naturally didn't want to refute his face, so she gave him a bag first.

Who would have thought that it didn't take long for Li Wei to come to beg for it again, saying that the bag was not enough for the neighbors.

After doing this again and again, Zhao Hongyu couldn't help but be suspicious, and secretly investigated, only to learn that the Li family's father and son actually handed over the bone meal to the Jinyi guards and the officials, and resold it to the people outside.

After hearing these words, Wang Shouye was also speechless.

This Li family's father and son are really wealthy!

But he knew that since this matter had already been involved with the officials and brocade guards outside, it was not good to kick it out directly-after all, he had to count on them to maintain order next.

Seeing him frowning and groaning, Zhao Hongyu was relieved: "In fact, this kind of thing is difficult to stop - when I was in Miao County, why wasn't my father like this?" ”

After a pause, she suggested again: "Why don't we open up the supply of this 'elixir', everyone in the people will have a share, and they will naturally not be able to do this business." ”

Obviously, the latter words are actually what she really wants to say, and the front is just a reason.

For her, Wang Shouye is not good at taking out the reason why Dongchang needs to use this to 'make a name for himself' in order to recover his vitality as soon as possible.

After a little muttering, he said seriously: "I refuse to let go of the medicine, naturally I have my reason, once it is too easy to get, people often do not cherish it; Second, this bone meal will be sold at a price sooner or later, and if it is too much at a time, it will not be beautiful. ”

"Sell for a price?"

Zhao Hongyu was very surprised when she heard this.

"That's right."

Wang Shouye nodded and said: "Since I know that the imperial court has an elixir to ward off evil spirits, and there will inevitably be people who will come to the door to ask for it in the future, I intend to ask the imperial court to regularly prepare the medicine and sell it to the people at a low price." ”

"In this way, it can be avoided that the 'elixir' will become a forbidden place for high-ranking officials and nobles, and even hoarding Juqi to collect money;

After hearing this, Zhao Hongyu was silent for a long time, and then finally laughed with relief, and stared at Wang Shouye with two apricot eyes: "It's still Brother Wang, you have seen it for a long time." ”

can be regarded as a flickering past.

However, Fang Cai was in a hurry, and he really came up with a long-term way to make money.

Wang Shouye secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and was afraid that Zhao Hongyu would have other questions, so he took the initiative to ask: "What about the bones that were taken out at the beginning...... Elixir, has there been any change in the efficacy? ”

That's the benefit of being well-informed.

Although it was the first time he had concocted a 'token', he had seen a lot of games and novels, so he took into account the issue of timeliness from the very beginning.

Therefore, the first bag of bone meal that was determined to be effective was kept for testing in addition to being used to exorcise evil spirits for the first patients and talents.

Every two quarters of an hour, a patient with a similar condition is found and tested for the same amount of efficacy.

Hearing Wang Shouye ask about this, Zhao Hongyu immediately turned out the record and read it line by line: "At six o'clock in the afternoon, three people with two fingers and one person with three fingers were tested, and it was often the same as before, and there was no difference during the period. ”

"Hmm."

Wang Shouye explained: "Continue to try, and if you find signs of diminishing the effectiveness of the medicine, immediately notify the people of Shuntianfu and let them spread the news." ”

Zhao Hongyu solemnly agreed, and was about to say something more, but suddenly saw Wang Laohan walk in from outside.

The two hurriedly greeted him, one on the left and one on the right.

"Dad, why did you come here when you don't go across the hospital to recuperate?"

"Aren't I all right?"

Wang Laohan's complexion today is indeed much stronger than yesterday's, and it can be said that his face is full of red light.

I saw him dancing and saying: "Son, I've been worried about it for the past few days, but now I'm down-to-earth - accumulate virtue, you have accumulated great virtue!" In the future, this official, let's sit with peace of mind! ”

Seeing the old man's karma, Wang Shouye and Zhao Hongyu looked at each other and smiled, and waited to help him to sit down next to him.

Who knew that a brocade guard colonel suddenly broke into the outside, and he was out of breath and reported:

"Wang Baihu, summoned by the cabinet, you can enter the palace!"

[One change today, another: The old man is critically ill and does not enter the rice, and he has already bought a lantern or something, if the person is gone, he can only guarantee a change in the past few days. 】
