Chapter 21: The Plague
The days passed like a white horse, and in a blink of an eye, I had been in Beijing for more than a month.
Liang Hong lived in a courtyard house in the west of the capital.
Although his money and glass workshop have been returned to him now, he still feels unsafe, after all, although he has shown his face in the upper echelons now, maybe those people will also see the love of working together (bringing down Cao Ge Lao) and help him once or twice, but this kind of favor is used once less.
In addition, about the emperor, although the emperor likes to listen to the stories he tells about cultivating immortals, he also believes a large part of his experience of meeting another plane in a dream.
But in the final analysis, it is Liang Hong's story of cultivating immortals that is too fascinating, and Emperor Jingtai is a Daojun emperor, and he is almost crazy in cultivating immortals, so he will spend two or three hours listening to Liang Hong's stories every day.
In the past month, a lot of things have happened, for example, Liang Jin also came to Jingshi City, and hired several masters of the glass factory to Jingshi City with high salaries, including their families.
As soon as Liang Jin arrived at Liang Hong's foothold, he complained: "Brother Hong, do you want to be the shopkeeper, I don't care, this glass workshop was built by you, I can see it, our Liang family has gone through this catastrophe, I am determined to follow you,
You said that you want to slowly build a big consortium, I think you can do it, damn it, I was angry with those officials, and this time, I almost took my life.
I've seen it through thoroughly, this person always depends on his strength, and we'll slowly engage in the consortium you mentioned.
You also told me that you will also work hard in the officialdom, so that our officials and businessmen collude, cough cough cough no, no, no, we will join forces, and we are not afraid that the consortium will not be able to get it. ”
Liang Hong said helplessly: "You have already moved the factory over, so what else do you say, just do what you just said!" ”
So after Liang came to Beijing, Liang Hong's glass workshop was set up in Beijing.
On this day, Liang Hong just came out of the palace, and as usual, he told Emperor Jingtai the story of "The Story of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals", the story of mortal cultivation of immortals is too long, and Liang Hong did not finish it in a short time, and he saw a lot of novels about cultivating immortals in his previous life, and he was not afraid that there would be nothing to say after "Mortals" was finished.
Liang Hong came out of the palace and walked through a street as usual, which led to the courtyard where he lived, and then he heard a lot of cries.
At first, I was puzzled, but when I saw that on this street, people usually walk back and forth, and there are many people, but today it is inaccessible.
Finally walked a little longer, Liang Hong saw a pedestrian in a hurry, Liang Hong hurriedly stopped him, and asked puzzledly: "Why is the usually lively street, why is it so deserted now, where have all the people gone?" ”
The pedestrian was stopped by Liang Hong, and suddenly a frightened look appeared on his face, and he took several steps back in a row, as if Liang Hong had something annoying and dirty, this person was two or three steps away from Liang Hong, and seemed to feel "safe", so he said:
"This brother, you don't know?"
"Know what?" Liang Hong was puzzled.
"Recently, there has been a plague in our city! Hey, I still have something to do, I need to go home quickly! The man said hurriedly, and then hurried away.
When Liang Hong heard this person's words, his heart suddenly sank: "Plague? Gotta get home and set it up. ”
Liang Hong knew that in ancient times, in a world where the modern health system did not exist, it would be terrible if there was a plague.
Liang Hong hurriedly returned home, in the courtyard, there were two servants, both bought in the market, a middle-aged woman, surnamed Chen, and a seventeen-year-old boy, as the family's errand boy.
In addition, Liang Lin, Liang Hong's scholar, Liang came to Jingshi and brought it there, and Liang Hong used it more easily.
In addition, there are two people in the family, Liang Jin and Liang Hong, and this courtyard is big enough to accommodate these people.
As soon as Liang Hong came in, he called Liang Jin to his room, and then said, "Seventh Uncle, has anyone in our workshop had a fever recently?" He knew that if there was a dead person, it would be impossible for Liang Jin not to say it to him.
"Yes, but some have taken leave, and some are still working in the workshop." Zhao Jin arrived.
Liang Hong was suddenly shocked: "Not good! Come with me to the workshop! ”
Liang Jin was puzzled, but he still didn't ask anything, and subconsciously felt that this matter was serious, so he immediately walked to the workshop with Liang Hong.
The glass manufacturing workshop is not far from Liang Hong's residence, and they arrive through a street, and when they arrive at the factory, Liang Hong immediately summons the workers to gather, and when the workers have a total of more than 100 people assembled, Liang Hong asked loudly: "Any of you are now having a fever, even if it is a mild patient, they are all out of the ranks!" ”
More than a dozen people immediately walked out, and Liang Hong saw that this was okay, and it seemed that the entire factory, including the families of the workers in the factory, would be quarantined.
Fortunately, Liang Hong now has sufficient funds in his hands to afford the expenses that need to be spent after the quarantine of the factory.
Liang Jin listened to it in horror next to him, what's the matter, all the people in the workshop have to be isolated, isn't it just a fever?
Liang Jin is used to listening to Liang Hong's orders, and since Liang Hong said so, he naturally has his reasons
Immediately, under Liang Hong's arrangement, Liang Jin began to arrange people to isolate all the workers in those workshops.
There is also the purchase of Liang Hong said, quicklime, drinking water must be with boiling water, those who are isolated, must use boiled water to strangle their mouth and nose to prevent infection......
Fortunately, with Liang Hong's timely measures, the people in the workshop were safe and sound in the following half a month, and no one died.
At this time, the entire Jingshi City was like purgatory, compared to the family Dai Xiao, but the number of deaths was pulled out by carts every day, and those buried in mass graves in the wild were countless.
Liang Jin finally felt the trickiness of this matter, and through Liang Hong's explanation before, he understood the seriousness of the matter.
The entire Jingshi City was given martial law by the government, but what is the use of martial law alone? Without specific measures, the epidemic situation in Jingshi City will only expand and become more serious!
So, at this time, Liang Hong once entered the palace and told the emperor about "The Story of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals", and immediately volunteered, hoping to lead the whole city to fight the epidemic
The emperor did not agree at first, but Liang Hong directly made a military order, saying that if the situation in the whole city did not improve, he was willing to cut off his own head for this.
At that time, it was the most serious moment of the so-called "plague" in the city, and the emperor finally nodded...
