After Qiao Qi's introduction, Li Su learned that Qiao Qi's eldest daughter is called Qiao Qiqi, who is fourteen years old this year, and has already talked about her in-laws.

If it weren't for this strange disease, this place would have been locked down, and he would have been married by this time.

Son Qiao Baiguan is seven years old this year.

The youngest daughter is not yet two years old, and her name is Erya.

Next, Li Su carefully looked at Qiao Qi's neck and asked again.

Then, he diagnosed Qiao Qi's mother-in-law, Qiao He.

Qiao He was only wearing a sackcloth on his body, which seemed to be Qiao Qi's clothes.

In order to let Li Su see the symptoms of his neck clearly, Qiao He unbuttoned it.

After careful examination, Li Su had a conclusion in his heart.

Qiao Qi couldn't help but ask nervously, "Your Highness, can we still be saved from this illness?" ”

Not only was Qiao Qi nervous, but Qiao Qi's mother-in-law, and the two children all looked at Li Su extremely nervously.

Li Su smiled slightly and said to them: "Your disease is called big neck disease, in fact, it is because of the lack of iodine in your usual diet. As long as you eat more iodine-containing foods, it will take a few months to return to normal. ”

Big neck disease is caused by iodine deficiency.

As long as it is not particularly severe, as long as enough iodine is usually supplemented, it can gradually return to normal.

Of course, if the symptoms are particularly severe, special treatment is required.

And Qiao Qi's illness did not come to that point.

Hearing Li Su's words, Qiao Qi couldn't help but quietly breathe a sigh of relief.

Then he asked nervously, "Your Highness, you said that we want to eat what kind of iodine food?" What do you need to eat? Our family is poor, and we can't afford to eat things that are too expensive. ”

Li Su couldn't help but say: "Iodine-containing foods, such as kelp, seaweed, eggs, milk, etc., contain iodine. Like fruits, cherries, oranges, bananas, and then spinach and celery. ”

After listening to Li Su's words, Qiao Qi couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, is it only in these foods?" For example, rice and wheat are not in them? ”

Li Su couldn't help but ask, "This king knows that your family is poor, but you can't even afford to eat spinach and celery, right?" ”

Qiao Qi said helplessly: "Your Highness, but at this time, spinach and celery have not been planted yet!" Where can I eat? The foods you are talking about are only available in eggs. But we, where can we eat! ”

This is inland, and kelp and nori are not available.

Like oranges, bananas, cherries, there will be no ones this season.

And celery and spinach, in this era when there are no greenhouses, there will be no ones at all this season.

That's a problem!

After thinking for a while, Li Su couldn't help but say to Qiao Qi: "That's it, the problem of food, this king will find a way." ”

Qiao Qi said again: "But, but I can't afford it at all!" ”

Li Su couldn't help but say speechlessly: "Don't worry, this money will come out of the imperial court." ”

After coming out of Qiao Qi's house, Li Su inspected the entire village, more than 200 households, door to door.

In the village, almost every household has a patient.

However, fortunately, there are no particularly serious patients.

As long as you pay attention to iodine supplementation in the future, it will gradually be cured.

It's just that the poverty of this village also makes Li Su feel shocked.

The situation in this village, almost every family is not much different from Qiao Qi's family.

There are forty or fifty families who are poor and can't even afford to wear pants.

Especially those who have a lot of girls in the family, because there are few houses and there are no cubicles.

As soon as they entered their room, they could see two or three girls sitting on the beds, covered with quilts.

When he saw outsiders, his face was blushing and he didn't dare to look at people at all.

And when Li Su was treating them, he made them even more shy.

Because of poverty, they can't even afford to eat eggs to supplement iodine.

Because of food supplements, you need to eat every day.

If you only eat it once in a while, it's fine.

But they can't afford to eat it every day.

Therefore, even if it is a food supplement, Li Su is still needed to solve this problem.

In fact, if you eat supplements, eggs are not the best choice.

Because eggs are not high in iodine.

The food with the highest iodine content is still seafood.

Like kelp, seaweed, jellyfish, and so on.

……

In Xiaohe Village, more than 200 households went from house to house, and it was already dark.

And they don't have this condition to stay in Xiaohe Village for a night, and there are no extra beds for them in the village.

Li Su and his entourage had no choice but to discredit and return.

By the time they returned, it was already the middle of the night.

At noon the next day, Li Su got up from the bed.

After getting up, Li Su couldn't help but come to the official office, and then ordered someone to invite Shi Lin to come over.

After a while, Lin Li rushed over.

"Governor, I don't know what to order?"

Li Su pointed to the Zhenguan chair and said to Lin Li, "Lin Shushi, sit down and talk." ”

After Lin Xuan sat down, Li Xuan couldn't help but say: "Lin Shushi, it's like this, the villagers of Xiaohe Village are not suffering from plague, but a disease called big neck disease. And this disease, as long as enough iodine is supplemented, it can be cured. ”

"The foods with the most iodine are kelp and seaweed. Both types of seafood are available in coastal areas. I just wanted to ask, in Yizhou, are there any merchants who go to Lingnan Road? ”

On the coast of Yeongnam Province, as long as there are merchants, you can buy kelp.

Of course, in fact, Li Su can also be purchased through the mall.

But for people in a village, it takes more than half a year to treat big neck disease and eat it regularly.

How much kelp do you have to buy?

This loser is worth it, and Li Su can't afford to spend it.

Hearing Li Su's words, Lin Lu couldn't help but say: "Your Highness Qiqi, the biggest merchant in Yizhou leading to Lingnan Road is about to say that it is the Zhao family." ”

Well?

The Zhao family?

Li Su couldn't help but ask Lin Li: "But outside Xiaohe Village, the Zhao family who instigated the villagers to set fire to the village?" ”

Lin Xuan smiled bitterly: "It's that Zhao family!" ”

After pondering for a while, Li Su couldn't help but say to Lin Li: "In this way, you ordered someone to spread the word and order the head of the Zhao family to call me tomorrow." ”

"Yes, Metropolitan Governor, the lower officials will do it."

After leaving, Lin Li couldn't help but sneer on his face.

This King of Shu is probably used to staying in Chang'an City, so he doesn't know the following cats at all, right?

Do you think that just because you are the governor of the capital, you can instruct the Zhao family?

Hum! I'm afraid, it's you thinking too much, right?

These families are not afraid of court officials at all.

On the contrary, the officials sent by the imperial court also rely on their snort.

If these families do not cooperate, then their work will not be carried out at all.
