Chapter 72 Conditions
In Ruyin City, there was a strange smell, and many 'pig-headed people' in strange costumes were spraying white mist everywhere with a pump, and those strange smells came from these white mist.
The "pig-headed man" is actually a person wearing a bamboo charcoal gas mask and a coverall, which has been rubbed with sulfur powder to prevent chicken lice from getting onto the body, and they use a pump to suck the "lice killer" from the wooden barrel on the cart and spray it everywhere.
The head of the bamboo pump has a simple atomization nozzle, which can atomize the liquid sprayed out, and the "lice exterminator" that specializes in killing chicken lice has been widely used in major chicken farms in Huangzhou, and the effect is very good to kill lice by spraying.
However, when the chicken farm exterminates lice, its working area is not large, and if you want to exterminate lice in Ruyin City, you need to invest a lot of manpower and material resources, so a group of five people can be seen everywhere in the city, and they are strictly divided into "grid areas" and "grids" one by one to exterminate lice.
The defenders of Ruyin have been destroyed, and all the people in the city have been transferred to a special camp to exterminate lice and live temporarily, so at this time, there is no one else in Ruyin City except for the lice extermination team.
Whether it is the streets or alleys, whether it is a thatched house or a brick house, whether it is a private house or a large family, the lice extermination team does not let go of any corner, and the chicken poop everywhere in the city is also the object of their cleanup.
Chicken lice can survive for months in chicken feces mixed with chicken feathers, so in order to exterminate lice, these chicken feces as their carriers must also be cleaned up, and before the lice extermination work is completed, idle people are not allowed to enter Ruyin City without permission, so as to avoid the large-scale spread of chicken lice.
The constant spraying of lice exterminators inside the city filled the air with a strange smell, and the smell was also permeated outside the city, which was a belt of medicinal powder released around the city, and the width of the powder reached one step wide, surrounding Ruyin.
Powder, medicine, is to prevent the spread of chicken lice, "escape" and must do preventive measures, but also the release of "lice" combat prerequisites, otherwise once the lice bomb in the process of transportation, use of accidents, unlucky is their own people.
On the outer edge of the medicine powder belt, several people were talking to each other, one of them was Zhang Yu, the lieutenant of Xiyang Wangfu, who was talking to a middle-aged man in a low voice at this time.
"I said Lao Lei, can this lice exterminator really kill chicken lice quickly?"
"Seriously! Chicken farms are pointing to this thing to kill lice! ”
"Then why is it not necessarily effective to kill fleas?" Zhang Yu complained, "Last time, the king..... Patrolling the camp in the city of light, I followed, and I provoked a flea, and it was useless to use your lice to kill the spirit! ”
"Ouch, my lice killer is for chicken lice, where can I use it to deal with fleas.... Uh, Lieutenant Zhang, the king didn't get into trouble with fleas at that time, did he? ”
"No, no, where would the king get into trouble with fleas, haha..."
Zhang Yu has already experienced a thick skin, and he doesn't blush at all when he lies in public, and this time he was ordered by Yuwenwen to supervise the extermination of lice, so what should be clarified must be clarified.
The middle-aged man he talked to was named Lei Quan, the owner of a chicken farm in Huangzhou, because the chickens he raised were often plagued by chicken lice, so he figured out a good medicine to kill chicken lice, and now he is guiding the lice extermination on the spot, and strive to eliminate all the chicken lice in Ruyin City in a short time.
There are many chicken farms in Huangzhou, many people have made a fortune by raising chickens, but it is not easy to run a chicken farm, in order to maximize profits, each chicken farm has a lot of chickens, in case of an outbreak of chicken plague, a piece of death will die, and in addition, chicken lice are also a headache for chicken farmers.
A chicken has chicken lice on it, and the chicken lice follow the chicken all their lives, and the reproduction speed of chicken lice is very fast, and it is easy for the chicken farm to lose all its money.
The man invested a lot of money to make lice exterminators in partnership with Lei Quan, and also provided raw materials such as sulfur, made lice exterminators in batches and sold them to various chicken farms at a reasonable price, Lei Quan made a fortune with this, and the only thing he had to do every day was to count the money.
He has a lot of experience in exterminating chicken lice, so he was invited to Ruyin to guide the extermination of lice this time, because it was Xiyang Wangfa, Lei Quan was flattered and did not dare to be a little sloppy, not to mention that the medicine and powder used to kill lice this time are their own products, and the amount of money used is so large that his workshop makes a lot of money.
Although he didn't know why there were so many chicken lice in Ruyin City, Lei Quan had absolute confidence in his own lice extermination, as long as the dose was enough, even if the city was full of chicken lice, he could wipe it out.
Zhang Yu saw that there were no outsiders at the scene, so he explained to Lei Quan: "Old Lei, you are a clever person, this time you came to Ruyin, after you go back, you should know what to say and what not to say, right?" ”
"Lieutenant Zhang relaxes, Lei knows what's at stake."
"Well, you know, if only ... Ahem, it's not me who will come looking for you. ”
"I know, I know, Lei knows."
Of course, Lei Quan knew what to say and what not to say, just like he knew that the person who partnered with him was probably someone from Xiyang Palace, but he didn't reveal it to anyone, even his wife and children didn't know.
The King of Xiyang took everyone to make a fortune, and everyone knew that it was boring to say that gratitude was boring, and it was really grateful to support the King of Xiyang with practical actions.
The king of Xiyang continued to win battles outside, and the merchants and workshop owners in Huangzhou all over Huangzhou made a fortune no matter what line of work, because the government did not requisition all kinds of military supplies without compensation, but spent money to buy them, and the premise was that they could not cut corners and not improve with inferiority.
With such a generous 'customer', who will not desperately prepare the goods, the materials that the king of Xiyang wants, who dares to be the best, the first one in the same industry can not spare him.
No one wants Xiyang King to lose, so as long as the other party speaks, everyone has money to pay, and someone has to pay, and there is no ambiguity, and Lei Quan is no exception.
Lei Quan originally planned not to pay a penny and provide it to the officials and soldiers free of charge, but the king of Xiyang just wanted to pay, so he decided to do his best to exterminate lice, and he must eliminate the chicken lice in Ruyin City before the deadline arrives.
While talking, dozens of horsemen from the military camp in the distance came out of the camp, galloping towards the east, looking at their uniforms, it seemed to be Chen Jun soldiers, Lei Quan saw this situation, although he had doubts in his heart, but did not ask.
You can't ask what you shouldn't ask, and you can't say what you shouldn't say, this is a prerequisite for getting the support of King Xiyang, Lei Quan knows it very well.
。。。。。。
Qicheng, Fan Yi was listening to the messenger's report, the Zhou army captured Ruyin not long ago, and the speed made him stunned, but then there was worry, Fan Yi was worried that Zhou Guo (Yuwen's) would turn his face, and once he didn't deal with it properly, it would lead to an injustice falling on his head.
Since the victory of Guangling, the Chen army has been recovering Huainan with great fanfare, and it is impossible for the Yuwen clan not to know about this situation, and Shi Wansui, the main general of the Zhou army who was previously stationed in Lujiang, has repeatedly emphasized that the Zhou State has no intention of competing with the Chen State for Ruyin.
As a result, Xiyang Wang Yuwen Wen took Ruyin first, which means that the other party broke his promise and led the army to garrison Qicheng with the intention of recovering Ruyin, if Fan Yi, who did not take a tough posture, someone in the court and China would inevitably take the opportunity to splash sewage, saying that he was cowardly and incompetent, and lost his teacher and humiliated the country.
However, if his soldiers and horses clash with the Zhou army, not to mention whether they can fight or not, once the war starts, there will also be people in the DPRK and China who will take the opportunity to spill sewage and say that he has destroyed the alliance between the two countries.
Fan Yi only felt that he was in a dilemma, so he first sent an envoy to see Yuwen Wen to probe the tone, and then decided how to deal with it next, and now the envoy came back and brought back the other party's statement.
The envoy met the king of Xiyang, and the other party's answer was very clear: Chen Guo wanted Ruyin, and Zhou Guo could return it, but he had to let someone who could call the shots come and talk to him about the conditions for returning Ruyin.
The envoy also brought back the letter of the king of Xiyang, Fan Yi read it carefully several times, what the king of Xiyang said in the letter was indeed consistent with what the messenger said, he put down the letter and groaned.
Obviously, the King of Xiyang of the Zhou State does not think that he Fan Yi is the one who can call the shots, so who is the one who can call the shots?
