In the small bedroom, an invisible but powerful energy gathers and brews. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Fan Jin is not Feng Mingqi, he has never practiced high-strength qigong, and he is a scholar after all, if he wants to maintain a gentle and elegant image, when he speaks, he naturally does not have the sound of bells and drums. But that low and peaceful voice, to the ears of several people, was like a thunderbolt.

"I'm from Guangdong, and there hasn't been a large-scale smallpox outbreak in Guangdong in recent years, and when the government gets the news of smallpox, sometimes the epidemic is over. Magistrates all have the same mentality, more things are better than less, as long as they can cover up, they are unwilling to report. Besides, Guangdong is not very peaceful, and it is common for thousands of people to fight in groups for land, and the government cannot control it. In this environment, people's fear of smallpox is not as strong as it is in a peaceful place like Jiangning. If you really want to implement it, you must first have great perseverance, and secondly, you must have enough authority and resources, all of which are indispensable. When I was in Guangdong, the resources were there, and Ling Zhijun appreciated me very much, but there was no urgent need, and there were many things piled up there, so in the end, I didn't do it. Jiang Ning died a lot of smallpox this time, and the fate of many people was completely changed, so I wanted to give this method a try. I am a scholar from other places, and no one listens to what I say, so I need to have the cooperation of locals. So I said that this business is a loss for Feng Lao Hero. ā€

Feng Mingqi looked at Fan Jin, his eyes were like torches, and his voice was like a bell. "Lao Yu is a martial artist, and Fan Gongzi is a scribe. The scribe Ken negotiated a deal with the warriors, and for this alone, the warriors had already taken advantage of the sky. Fan Gongzi might as well talk about it first, what is your anti-smallpox method. ā€

"At present, Daming is mainly a human pox for smallpox prevention. Jiang Ning smallpox has been a lifetime, and I went to ask Lang Zhong, no matter whether the water seedlings are dry or dry, it is easy to kill people if they plant human pox. Even one out of ten deaths can be counted as a good doctor. The cost is large, there are many deaths, and everyone is lucky to have smallpox, but it is easy to die after planting pox, so there are fewer and fewer pox. Fan's method came from overseas. In that part of our Guangdong province, there will always be Yi people who come to do business, in addition to merchants, and occasionally there are Western monks. I heard this method from a Western monk called "Cowpox!" ā€

Historically, cowpox vaccination only appeared in the 18th century, and before that, although there was a vaccinator, smallpox still spread fear and death in the world with its nuclear bomb-level power. Compared with human pox, cowpox has a low cost, less harm, and a greatly reduced risk factor. The extremely low mortality rate alone is an incomparable advantage of the human pox method.

However, there are pros and cons to things, in the original historical time and space, after the invention of the cowpox method, the promotion in China did not go well. Including doctors, they all resist this method, and the root cause is the concept and the second is the benefit.

Conceptually, the pox extract extracted from cattle is injected into the human body, which is psychologically difficult for ordinary people to accept. From the perspective of benefits, after the completion of the current dry seedlings and water seedlings, Langzhong needs to continue to follow up, whether it is the pox seeds or the follow-up drug treatment, it can bring high benefits to the doctors. Cowpox is easy to obtain, and there are no too serious complications, and Lang Zhong can't make much money in this process, so he sets up obstacles to cowpox from the industry.

Some of these langzhong themselves also have contacts with the government, or know some large gentry, and have some influence in the local area. If it is deliberately sabotaged, it is enough to have a bad impact on the pox business. Fan Jin is just an airborne lifter, lacking resources in Jiangning, and if he rushes to promote pox, he may not be able to reap good results. It is because he did not propose cowpox from the beginning, because if he was to implement it, it would not be possible to implement it successfully. If Fan Jin cooperated with the Xu family father and son, at that stage, the Xu family father and son were actually not interested. In fact, even now, whether the Xu family is willing to cooperate in this matter, Fan Jin himself is not sure.

In fact, the promotion of technology in this era is far more difficult than ordinary people imagine. In terms of human pox, which can also be called a life-saving technique, although this technology existed in the era of Ming Muzong, it was not until the early Qing Dynasty that this technology spread to western Zhejiang. In ancient times, it was very common for a technology to be repeatedly "invented" many times, and in the final analysis, it was the contempt for technology and the difficulty of dissemination.

Fan Jin is not a doctor for the explanation of cowpox, and the current knowledge structure is limited, and he can't understand terms such as virus antibodies, and he can't understand vaccines. It is difficult to convince Feng Mingqi to believe in cowpox technology. Fan Jin's advantage is that he is a scholar, and he is a scholar who has already had a certain connection with the Zaifu family of the current dynasty. The right to speak in this era is in the hands of readers.

Under normal circumstances, the reader does not need to explain anything to the following, as long as the matter is said, the listener will believe it, and the reason is only that it is said by the reader. If he knows words and doesn't know himself, then what he said must be right, which is the importance of authority. And the scholars who have the Zaifu family as the endorsement are stronger than ordinary readers in terms of authority.

"That's probably the case with cowpox, injecting bodily fluids into the body to make people resistant to smallpox, especially for babies, the best effect. But Feng Lao must also understand that when it comes to going out technically, most people may not believe it without a famous doctor's certificate. So it's very likely that this exercise is a dragon slaying technique, or it may be a lie, because after all, I haven't tried it myself. Whether he is willing to exchange or not depends on Feng Lao's own decision. ā€

Feng Mingqi looked at Fan Jin, his expression was neither happy nor angry, he was just thinking there. After a long time, he asked: "Master Fan, you have this recipe, why don't you face Xu Gongzi at the beginning, so that Miss Six will not have the difficulties she has today." ā€

"Feng Lao is an understanding person, just think about it, I said it that day, he would believe it. Injecting the body fluids of the pox cow into Miss Six's body, who dares to say this, and who dares to operate? Moreover, at that time, I never imagined that Miss Six would actually be infected with smallpox, and when she really got sick, it would be too late to say this. ā€

Feng Mingqi nodded, "This is also true, the little grandfather is no better than ordinary people, in this way, it is really incredible, and it is not a doctor's prescription." Unless it is effective, no one dares to make the decision to plant cowpox for Miss Six. ā€

"It may not work if the test is effective, who would have thought that Miss Six would have smallpox? This kind of thing is good for one or two people, but it may not be useful. First, there are many people who want to plant it, and secondly, it is because I think that I will also get smallpox, so I can think of planting this. ā€

"Yes, Fan Gongzi understands things better than the old man." Feng Mingqi smiled, "Fan Gongzi's cowpox is a dragon slaying technique, or an invalid party, but it is always a method for thousands of living people." Feng is accustomed to running rivers and lakes, and he has been to several southeastern provinces, and he also knows that thousands of people die from smallpox every year. That's just what I know, and that's more than what I don't know. If the cowpox method is really effective, then it can live thousands of people, and the merits are immeasurable. Furthermore, the sword dance of the scholar is elegant, and he does not seek to kill. In martial arts, at most it is elegant, few people really like it, Fan Gongzi is a dignified Guangdong talent, willing to learn the old kung fu, that is to give the old face. If you still refuse to teach, wouldn't you not know what to do? I will write this qigong practice mantra to Gongzi, and when practicing specifically, you have to have the old decay by your side to guide you, and it's too late now. Wu'er and Siniang, you went back to Youlan Pavilion to pack up and moved here to serve the eldest lady. Lao Yu went to find someone, and first handled Wu'er's registration. Go and say hello to all the colleagues in Jiangning City again, the safety of this mansion is guaranteed! ā€

Fan Jin nodded and said, "Everything is arranged by the old-timers. ā€

People went one after another, and there were only two left in the room, Fan Jin and Zhang Shunqing. Fan came in to the bedside, held Zhang Shunqing's hand and said, "Now rest assured?" Since Feng Lao dares to pack tickets, he must be sure, this time he doesn't have to worry about becoming pockmarks? ā€

Zhang Shunqing smiled: "I wasn't worried from the beginning, anyway, there is a fool who will want me no matter what I become, what else do I have to worry about." But Brother Fan, the cowpox you just said ......"

"Are you blaming me for not telling Miss Six or telling you? I'm still saying that, not that I don't tell it, but I don't dare. ā€

Zhang Shunqing said: "Brother Fan doesn't need to explain, my little sister understands." The cowpox method sounds scary, even if you say it, I don't dare to get the cowpox liquid into my body, it's disgusting to think about. The sixth sister is a person who loves cleanliness, even if she kills her, she will not be. People are like this, only when the matter is coming, do they know that they are afraid, and before that, they will not bow their heads. I'm saying, why did you tell Feng Si about this recipe? ā€

Her voice lowered slightly, and Fan Jin had to get closer to her to hear it properly. The burst of orchid aroma came to his nose, making him feel uneasy.

"Every year, the dynasty will kill many people due to smallpox, the number is hundreds of thousands, this is still a peaceful year, if the plague is born, the number of people will be several times dead. And this is still the number reported by the local government. As Brother Fan said, those who do it, more things are better than less things, if you can report less dead, you can report less, and you don't have to worry about calculating on Dingkou, the actual number of dead people is far more than what is reported. The method of human pox is not widely spread, the cost is high, and there are many dead people after planting, there is also a debate about human pox among doctors, many famous doctors think that planting pox is equivalent to killing people, so many people can't afford to plant or dare not plant, so they have to accept people's lives by God. If your cowpox is really easy to plant and has no troubles, it is a great merit for tens of millions of living people, and it can be called a living Buddha in the people, and it is also a great merit in the temple, not inferior to opening the border and expanding the soil. Even if you don't take the imperial examination, you can still give a future, why do you want to give this good future to a reckless? ā€

She rolled her beautiful eyes, pursed her lips and smiled: "Is it possible, the beauty is smiling and falling into the city, Brother Fan is willing to give up this merit in order to please Xue Wu?" ā€

Fan Jin also smiled: "Shunqing Bingxue is smart, and she can guess it." I did give credit to Feng Mingqi for the sake of beauty, but it wasn't Xue Wu, but the stupid guy who used himself as a touchstone. ā€

He looked down at Zhang Shunqing and said: "The rivers and lakes are sinister, those who can run the rivers and lakes will not have fuel-saving lamps, he is so old, he has seen all the wind and waves." Don't look at his bold appearance, he actually has a lot of scheming. The gold skin color hangs, the flat group adjusts the willows, and there are fuel-saving lamps in the eight rows outside. I've seen a lot of people who eat this bowl of rice! What he said just now was half-true and half-false, and the so-called qigong guidance effect was almost true and false, and no one said it clearly. Even if the two drugs interact with each other, your condition will worsen, and without his medicine, it will become an incurable disease, which must also be a question mark. deliberately saying that the condition is serious is nothing more than making a ham and hanging it up to sell, so that you owe him a great favor. I gave him the recipe for cowpox, also to repay the favor. Comparing the two, how can he still open his mouth to ask you for something? ā€

"He deliberately made such trouble this time, and he asked Xue Wu to give you massage, and he asked her to give you acupuncture, I think in the final analysis, he always paves the way for this righteous girl, and also finds a way out for himself. If you are cured of your illness in three or two clicks, it will not be serious, and it will be far from his gratitude. So he deliberately said that the disease was more serious and the treatment was slower, so that you know his feelings. In the final analysis, this is all a method of Jianghu Pimen, selling words, not medicine. It's like the Yi Jin Sutra, the ghost knows if it's so powerful, anyway, he said it, and he said that he would become an immortal after practicing. In short, you are the daughter of Zaifu, it is very troublesome to owe him a favor, and you will have to repay this favor in the future, and you don't know how many resources you have to take into it, so you can't do it. ā€

On a whim, Fan Jin said a few words of jargon in the rivers and lakes, Zhang Shunqing didn't understand everything, but he probably understood it. She smiled: "Brother Fan is thoughtful for his little sister, he doesn't want his little sister to be involved in the rivers and lakes, and he is willing to sacrifice so much, I really don't know how to repay my thoughts." But on reflection, how do you know so much about the affairs of the rivers and lakes? ā€

can't say that he was a disciple of Liyuan in his previous life, and he was in the same breath as the Outer Eight Elements, he belonged to the same way, and he was also proficient in things like Jianghukou, so Fan Jin had no choice but to say haha, "When I was by Ling Zhijun's side, I saw everyone, and I had a lot of dealings in the rivers and lakes, and I just saw it." ā€

"Yes, but ...... Even so, Xiaomei still feels that she has suffered a loss, and I am unwilling. Such a good method, why did you finally let a Jianghu person make a meritorious service, I am not convinced! ā€

"This cowpox is good, but it is also troublesome and offensive. It's like planting a water seedling, and you can collect several dollars from planting to good. As soon as the cowpox is done, there will be no way for them to get into the money, and they will definitely be dissatisfied or resistant to this thing, and they may even have to make a hindrance from it when the time comes. Let's talk about this test first, it's not easy to find someone to do it, and it's very troublesome for me to come forward directly. Fortunately, people like Feng Si are very good at both black and white, and the means are ...... It's also everything. It's more appropriate for me to do this kind of thing, so it may be more convenient for him to do it than for me to do it. I said that people make the best use of their talents and make the best use of things, and it is easier for him to manage this method. ā€

Fan Jin smiled and said, "Besides, planting cowpox consumes a lot of labor time, so how can I have that time to do things." If I go to get a pox, who will take care of you? I'm so powerful, I have knowledge in my belly, and helping him a little is considered to be relief for the victims. My fame is still in the field, relying on offering a cowpox prescription, at most being a preacher, how can I be worthy of Shunqing? ā€

Zhang Shunqing shook his head and said, "No...... Thinking back, even if you are a cloth cloth and have no fame, I am willing to grow old with you and not think about it in this life. The fame of this subject is that I mistook you. ā€

Fan Jin said with a smile: "It's a big deal to get out of the department, what's the big deal, I just don't know if Lao Xiangguo will not marry my daughter to me because I didn't get into the Jinshi." ā€

"Phew! Even if you get into the Jinshi, are you amazing? When the time comes, my father will reward you with a stick and beat you out of the dared. ā€

"If Chao Yuanfu insults a scholar, then I will turn my head and beat his daughter."

"The daughter of Shoufu looks like a fairy, Brother Fan pities the person who cherishes the jade, how can he do it?"

The two laughed for a while, Fan Jin stuffed the quilt for her, coaxed Zhang Shunqing to rest quickly, and he was ready to grab medicine according to the prescription left by Feng Ming. Looking at the man's gentle movements, the woman secretly turned countless thoughts in her heart: God is really kind to herself, so that she can meet a lover who is enough to entrust her in this life. If Daddy doesn't say yes...... He fled desperately, wandering the world with him, even if he was poor all his life, he was willing to eat. Thinking so, she closed her eyes and fell asleep again
