Qin Shou's eyes were timid, he rubbed it, and said, "That, it's cowpox pus, I took it out from the sick cow last night." ”

Fang Yaoyi glared, and hurriedly put the teacup back on the table, with a look of disgust.

"The cowpox vaccine that my husband said was made from this pus?"

Qin Shou nodded, and then said, "I'm going to try it myself today." ”

"By the way, Mrs. Lao Fu wrote a secret letter for me, probably to ask my father for some research expenses."

Fang Yaoyi thought for a while and asked softly, "Husband thinks that it is more appropriate to declare how many silver taels to my father?" ”

"One thousand taels." Qin Shou simply opened his mouth and said, "If it is to curb the spread of smallpox, one thousand taels, I think my father will definitely agree." ”

Qin Shou is telling the truth, after all, the harm caused by smallpox is not just something that can be solved by a thousand taels.

The vaccinia vaccine, for smallpox, is a one-and-done vaccine.

It is precisely because of this that Qin Shou dared to speak directly.

After all, when the liquor shop is closed, it is a business with a daily turnover of nearly 30 taels, and in terms of profit alone, the monthly income can reach nearly 2300 taels.

With this closure, Qin Shouke is equivalent to the income being cut to the heel.

After washing, Qin Shou went to the grass hut again, took some cowpox pus again, returned to the study, and called Fang Xiaoshang in.

"Fang Xiaoshang, are you afraid of smallpox?"

Fang Xiaoshang immediately said: "Of course I'm afraid, I'm afraid no one is not afraid of smallpox." ”

Hearing this answer, Qin Shou was very satisfied, and nodded: "In that case, you can try the cowpox vaccine first." ”

Fang Xiaoshang was stunned, "Lord Wang, is this the only thing I have for you?" ”

Qin Shou pouted.

Naturally, he wouldn't have operated on himself first, but seeing that Fang Xiaoshang was so afraid of death, he had no choice but to explain: "I know you're afraid of smallpox." ”

"Do you know that after cattle suffer from smallpox, they rarely die, and the reason is that the antibodies in the cow's body are stronger than the antibodies in humans, so although there is smallpox in the pus of cowpox, there are also antibodies against smallpox, so if people are vaccinated with cowpox, they will also produce antibodies accordingly."

Fang Xiaoshang couldn't understand this large number of professional terms, but he heard four words from Qin Shou's words.

Test the poison yourself.

Fang Xiaoshang, who is bitter, but can he refuse?

Looking at the posture of the prince, he will not be allowed to refuse at all.

To be honest, he even wondered if Lord Shi was making excuses to kill himself because he was His Majesty's secret agent.

He is not afraid of death, but that doesn't mean he likes to kill himself.

Fang Xiaoshang held the mood of seeing death as home, and said sadly: "Since the prince has made up his mind, there is only so much in the future. ”

As he spoke, Fang Xiaoshang grabbed his cuffs and stretched out his arm in front of Qin Shou.

Looking at Fang Xiaoshang's appearance, Qin Shou felt a little funny, although he wasn't sure what the effect of cowpox pus was, but this pus wouldn't really hurt Fang Xiaoshang to get smallpox.

"After vaccination, you go back to your room, and for the next three to five days, you may have fever, red beans, vomiting and other symptoms similar to smallpox, but this is not a big problem, and after five days, if you are cured, you don't have to worry about smallpox infection."

Fang Xiaoshang asked cautiously, "If the symptoms worsen......

"Oh, you don't have to worry about that." Qin Shou swore and said, "If after seven days, your illness worsens, you will knock on the door of the house to inform me." ”

"Does the prince have a way to heal?" Fang Xiaoshang's eyes lit up.

Qin Shou shook his head and said with a straight face: "That's not it, I'll arrange your future affairs in a beautiful way." ”

Fang Xiaoshang: "??? ”

In fact, this was deliberately played by Qin Shou to tease Fang Xiaoshang, after vaccinia pus inoculation, there will indeed be adverse reactions, but it will not be infected with smallpox.

In the present day.

After the news of the smallpox outbreak broke, a rumor suddenly arose among the people.

First there was a snowstorm, and then there was a plague.

This is because of His Majesty's inaction, and at the same time, the court has done something immoral.

Therefore, this is Heaven punishing the Holy Beings of today, and this is the Heavenly persecution of the Holy Beings to make an edict for sin.

All of a sudden, the people's calls for the emperor to make an edict became louder and louder.

Li Shimin took a sip of tea lightly, looked up at Du Ruhui, and said casually: "What does Master Du think?" ”

Du Ruyan said lightly: "The minister thinks that since ancient times, there have been natural and man-made disasters in all dynasties, but this matter is indeed that the imperial court did not notice it in time, resulting in the plague raging. ”

"But in today's situation, it's just people with ulterior motives who take the opportunity to attack Your Majesty."

Li Shimin remained silent, and said: "Yesterday, I went to Shewang's Mansion, and I was surprised to learn that She'er seemed to be trying a medicine that could resist smallpox. ”

Hearing this, Du Ruhui's expression became excited, "Your Majesty, is this true?" ”

Li Shimin couldn't help but be a little funny, "Do you think I would joke about this kind of thing?" ”

Du Ruhui was slightly stunned, and then said: "It's the minister who is abrupt." ”

Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "But She'er is not completely sure, he only said that he will try his best." ”

"If it's the Wet Lord." Du Ruyan pondered for a moment and said, "Then I should be very sure of it." ”

"Oh?" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Lord Du trusts Yu'er so much? ”

Du Ruhui nodded and said, "Since the minister met the prince, the prince has never done anything uncertain, so this time, the minister is willing to believe the prince." ”

"Besides, Your Majesty, doesn't the imperial court have no countermeasures for the time being?"

"It's better to believe in the prince for the time being."

Fang Xiaoshang took a deep breath and looked at the dagger in Qin Shou's hand.

After all, it was a compromise, after all, this was a study done for the people of the Tang Dynasty, didn't he want to be an official in the first place just to benefit the people?

If the vaccinia vaccine can save the people from dire straits, then let alone the death of a small businessman, even if it is a small businessman who dies.

So what!

Fang Xiaoshang thought so, finally calmed down in his heart, stretched out his arm, and said resolutely: "Lord Wang, if the cowpox vaccine fails, please give me the next cup of poisoned wine to save me from the pain of smallpox." ”

Looking at Fang Xiaoshang's expression of seeing death as if he were at home, Qin Shou smiled helplessly: "You don't have to worry too much, what I just said is a joke, if the cowpox vaccine fails, it will only be uncomfortable for a few days at most, and it will not cause death." ”

Having said that, Fang Xiaoshang still couldn't believe it, if it was really as the prince said, then why didn't the prince try it himself?

Qin Shou used the dagger to gently cut a very small wound on Fang Xiaoshang's arm, and blood beads instantly gushed out from the wound.

After that, Qin Shou's movements did not stagnate, and he hurriedly dipped the dagger in cowpox pus, dripping onto Fang Xiaoshang's wound.

After doing all this, Fang Xiaoshang returned to his wing.

Except for the slight pain in the wound, there was no other discomfort, which made Fang Xiaoshang a little surprised.
