Lu Jia's hairs stood on end when he heard this, no wonder Li Tangshan asked for boiling water to drink in the prison all the time, and hurriedly asked: "Is this the way to ensure that there will be no plague?" And what about the locust plague after the great drought? ”

Li Tangshan replied: "These measures can certainly ensure a certain degree of prevention, and it is impossible to stop them completely, but it is still possible to greatly reduce the chance of an outbreak, so it is very necessary to implement them as soon as possible." As for the locust plague after the great drought is another reason to blame, locusts breed and lay eggs before the arrival of winter, and the eggs they lay are buried in the ground, because the previous farming method is relatively shallow to dig the ground, so the accumulation is more and more, and there is an outbreak of locust plague every few years, and those who do not have enough food will starve to death. Now Longchuan will be much lighter after the implementation of deep ploughing, because the eggs laid by locusts are basically dug up before the deep ploughing before the arrival of winter, and then they are frozen to death on the ground when it is cold in winter, and they will not appear in large numbers the next year. In addition, coupled with the killing of frogs that are usually stocked in the fields, Longchuan should have a bumper harvest every year in the future. ”

Zhao Tuo then understood why Li Tangshan asked for a deep ploughing of the field before winter and the intention of the second year was only a superficial treatment, and also knew that the establishment of urban sewers was imperative, so he hurriedly called Lantian and others to explain these things one by one and reminded them to proceed as soon as possible, Lanhu was also called out of the busy Tuntian affairs and specially instructed to plough the land deep after the autumn harvest every year, and deal with it again before the winter came, he knew what adverse impact the occurrence of these disasters was, the plague reduced the population, and the locusts were purely grabbing food with people.

After receiving the order, the disgruntled generals took all the soldiers to transfer to logistics troops on the spot and began to dig waterways in various cities, and Li Tangshan jumped out to plan the direction of waterways in various places.

Later, Li Tangshan saw that the progress of just using the army was still too slow, and there were some people who did not understand to obstruct it, so he asked Chun Yuyi to stand up and explain why he did this, and the benefits of doing so.

Seeing this situation, Li Tangshan immediately adjusted his work methods, and the army was only responsible for digging the avenue, and the people were digging in front of their own houses, and then they were fully connected.

These projects were finally completed, and just when everyone thought that this was the end, Li Tangshan gave them a slap in the face, and continued the following process, collecting stones and building long strips, laying them into the dug waterway, and covering them, saying that it was so as not to affect the smell of life, and everyone had the intention of killing him, which was endless, but he had to continue to work under Zhao Tuo's strict order.

Li Tangshan also said to Zhao Tuo in private that Zhongjing in Changsha is very good at the plague and the like, and there may be a prescription for restraint, and he should find a way to attract him to Longchuan, Chun Yuyi is already relatively old, and he can manage the medical school with Chun Yuyi to reduce the burden, and he can also train disciples, treat the people, and so on.

Zhao Tuo couldn't help but glance at Li Tangshan strangely when he heard it, and asked him if it was the news left by Huang Shigong.

Li Tangshan nodded desperately, he couldn't leave the suspicious Zhao Tuo with the idea that he had an intelligence organization, otherwise he wouldn't die until he died.

There is a big thing that must be done in Li Tangshan's heart, that is, building a complete epidemic prevention system is very important for the development of Longchuan.

Zhao Tuo didn't think about it so much, but he just sighed that Li Tangshan Huangshi Gong was amazing, and even everyone in such a remote place knew it, and after thinking about it, he found Zhao Zhong and asked him to go to Panyu to re-find his escaped subordinates to enrich the future navy, and by the way, he brought a letter from Chun Yuyi to bring Zhongjing to Longchuan, and directly told Zhao Zhong that if he didn't come, he would be tied up.

Zhao Zhong was originally quite happy, the lost loyal subordinates could finally gather again, but the words behind him became awkward when he heard them, but Chun Yuyi had already known that Zhongjing's medical skills were good, and he wished that many people would come to communicate.

After the county commanders heard the news that Zhao Tuo was digging land in the whole territory of Longchuan, they made fun of Zhao Tuo because he wanted to be a farmer.

After the plague, due to Li Tangshan's isolation policy, Longchuan was able to survive safely without danger, and the plague did not spread to the townships. Li Tangshan was still worried about hygiene, so he privately ordered people to dig wells in the city, add gravel and charcoal to filter, and not use the water source of the small river. Water must be boiled before drinking, and raw water is not allowed.

Li Tangshan hoped that the matter of digging wells would be spread in all townships, but after the administrative order was issued, there was no movement in the townships, and they still carried out their original way of life, and Li Tangshan had a great headache. The common people stubbornly believe that the water flowing in the river is the safest, and they have been drinking water like this for generations. Li Tangshan found that talking about hygiene issues with ordinary people who were still in the stage of food and clothing was like playing the piano to a cow.

There was too much rain in the first half of the year, and Li Tangshan was worried that a major drought would come in the second half of the year, which would inevitably lead to a big locust plague. The drought is getting worse and worse, and not only are the crops in the fields about to die, but the weeds in the fields are also difficult to find.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the sun bakes the earth every day, and the ground absorbs the hot charcoal fire, and then volatilizes the heat at night.

It is like a stove during the day, but it becomes a steamer at night, and people sweat like rain.

Because there is no water, many people can't take a bath, and the Qin people in the Central Plains have long hair, and their heads are full of lice and muntjac.

Some children have rotten sores on their heads and bodies, and they itch all over their bodies, and when they scratch them with their hands, those rotten sores burst, and yellow water flows out, and the stench is unpleasant, and then they begin to fester, spreading all over the body.

The streets were filled with the sighs of adults and the cries of children.

People's throats are smoking, even if they dig up the mud in the river, all they bring home is only yellow water soup, and they can barely drink it after precipitation.

The heat is still secondary, and the key is that the mountain people have run out of food again, and they are so hungry that they have to dig up grass roots and eat tree bark again.

Some people are so hungry that they can't get off the kang, and some people have edema all over their bodies, and they look very fat, and their skin is shiny.

Hunger, drought, disease, trapped every soul, in an instant mourning all over the wilderness, the people are struggling to survive, ten rooms and nine empty.

The Dongjiang River also broke off, and Li Tangshan never dreamed that the drought would be worse than he expected, and he lamented that he was really born at the wrong time and was miserable.

His cheeks were swollen with sorrow, and a layer of blisters appeared on his mouth, which dried up and cracked and then wrinkled, making it difficult for him to speak.

Mei Juan could only hug him and cry, saying, "Husband, don't worry, no one else is worried, why are you worried?" ”

Li Tangshan said: "There is no electricity, no modern tools, no large machines, no Internet, no e-commerce, otherwise we will definitely survive the drought." I have a responsibility to make life better for everyone, and I'm stupid...... Let the folks suffer. ”
