Chapter 216: This can't help Madame!

"I can indulge you in other things, but this thing can't be done."

"What if I insist?"

Xie Zi'an raised his hand and pinched her cheek: "It's not up to Madame."

"I don't tell you how to do it! Do you want to try it slowly? This is no child's play!"

"Ma'am." Xie Zi'an smiled and said slowly: "Since cowpox can be transmitted to people, and people have immunity after being cured from the disease, then I only need to look for people who have been infected with cowpox, and try again to see if they are really not afraid of smallpox, and then I can know what to do."

Qi Lele: "......"

Careless! Forget that this man is a human being!

However, this is a safer and more secure way.

It is said that cowpox was first noticed because it was found that milkmen who had cowpox had not been infected with smallpox.

"What do you think of me, Madame?"

Qi Lele puffed his cheeks and turned his head to ignore him.

The smile in Xie Zi'an's eyes was even stronger: "You also said that you have never had cowpox, and you haven't even seen it, so how do you know that you will definitely succeed?" If there is a safer way, why don't we do it?"

"Then do as you say!"

"Then I wonder if Madame can tell me how to pass on the cowpox to people?"

Qi Lele glared at him, and said in a snorting voice, "Xianggong is so smart, he must be able to figure it out by himself, right?"

Xie Zi'an smiled: "Why is Madam so cute?"

"Alright, we're done with business, let's go over quickly, and we have to arrange accommodation for them."

Xie Zi'an said: "Don't worry, the hour is almost up, change the mulberry leaves first and then go."

Qi Lele subconsciously went out to look at the sky, but still didn't see why she came, she had been here for so long, she still couldn't learn to look at the sky and estimate the time, purely by blindness.

After the two washed their hands, as soon as they picked up the mulberry leaves, they saw Su Yi floating over like a gust of wind.

"The bunk bed was made so quickly?"

Su Yi shook his head: "The craftsman is also very interested in the high and low bed, saying that he wants to observe it, I think that if it is really made, I am afraid that they will need their help to make it, so I will simply let Jing Yanjing stay there."

Qi Lele praised: "Good job!"

Su Yi suddenly laughed.

Xie Zi'an glanced at him: "You go and invite Geng Dafeng and Du Qiuliang, I have something to ask them."

Su Yi took the action of mulberry leaves, looked at his eldest son, looked at the silkworm room again, retracted his hand with a little regret, answered yes, and turned to leave.

Qi Lele walked to the silkworm room: "Su Yi was summoned by you, like a little scholar."

"He was originally my scholar, but he didn't want to do it."

Thinking of Su Yi's ambition, Qi Lele couldn't help but smile: "You still have a scholar? Why don't they see Ziyan Ziwen?"

"There are also some who didn't go with them when they left Beijing."

"How many years have you been away from Beijing?"

Xie Zi settled down for a moment before he said, "It's been almost ten years."

Qi Lele was slightly stunned, has it been so long? Then why did you only come to Shangxi Village two years ago?

But Qi Lele won't ask anymore.

"I don't know what happened to other people's silkworms, and whether any of them continue to die of disease."

Xie Zi'an didn't expect her to change the topic so quickly, and the words she had originally thought of didn't have to be spoken.

Qi Lele did not hide his selfishness and revealed the methods and plans to prevent smallpox, and was even willing to risk his life, but he still had to find ways to hide the truth from her.

"Why don't you speak? There are still a lot of sick silkworms, didn't you tell me?"

Xie Zi'an retracted his mind and said with a smile, "How dare you hide it from Madame? I also asked Su Yi to ask yesterday, and after that day, most of everyone did what you said, but the situation was basically under control, and occasionally there were sick silkworms, which were also picked up in time."

Qi Lele was relieved at this time: "

That's good, I hope you can make some progress, otherwise, I'm afraid I'll have to work in vain."

"No, as long as the silkworms have formed cocoons, the county order will send someone to collect them, no matter how much, as long as everyone sees real money, they are naturally willing to continue to raise it."

Qi Lele said in a low voice, "The county order shouldn't push the price of silkworm cocoons too low, right?"

"No, Jingcheng County is upright, since he wants everyone to raise silkworms, he will naturally give more benefits."

"That's good." Qi Lele cut the mulberry leaves and sprinkled them on the silkworm net, and together with Xie Zi'an, put the silkworm net on the silkworm plaque: "Then, can we keep the silkworm cocoons and not sell them?"

"You want to weave your own fabric?"

Qi Lele said: "I have seen others do it before, but I want to see if it can be done."

Xie Zi'an smiled: "It's okay, when the time comes, talk to Li Zheng, and make up the money for silkworm seeds."

Qi Lele nodded: "Then make up for it!"

Xie Zi'an said again: "If you want to draw silk, I'm afraid this cocoon is not enough, right?"

Qi Lele's heart was alarmed, lest he would spend a large sum of money with a big hand: "Enough! Let's just try to see if it works, that's enough!"

Xie Zi'an laughed lightly.

By the time Su Yi came back with Du Qiuliang and Geng Dafeng, the two of them had already finished the work of the silkworm room.

"Have you ever heard of cowpox?"

Geng Dafeng was slightly puzzled: "Cowpox?"

Du Qiuliang also shook his head.

"It's a sudden appearance of pimples on the cow's body, followed by blisters, abscesses and crusted pustules. It can also be transmitted to other cattle, but after ten days and a half months, it can heal on its own. The disease is also contagious, and when people get it, the symptoms are somewhat similar to smallpox." qδ

As soon as the words fell, Geng Dafeng said, "If that's the case, I've heard it!"

Du Qiuliang also said: "I don't know the symptoms of cattle, but when it comes to people, I have some vague impressions. Although the symptoms of this disease are similar to smallpox, they are much milder than smallpox and most of them will heal on their own. But this cowpox?"

Qi Lele nodded: "Yes! It's cowpox! Is this cowpox common?"

Du Qiuliang said: "I don't know this, because it is too similar to smallpox, but anyone who is infected does not dare to find someone to treat it in a big way, and it is rare to see it in medical books."

Qi Lele looked at Xie Zi'an.

Xie Zi'an said: "If you have heard of it, it is not uncommon, and you can always find it if you ask around."

Geng Dafeng asked, "I wonder if the eldest prince and the young lady want to find out the cow with cowpox, or find the person infected by cowpox?"

Xie Zi'an looked at him.

Geng Dafeng said, "If I find the cow with cowpox, I just happen to know where it is!"
