"Heatstroke! There is no cure! ”

When doctors popularized heat stroke, it suddenly changed the color of the people's talk.

"It turns out that excessive heat stroke can cause heat stroke, and once it happens, it will kill you!"

"The second son of the old Liu family in Dongcheng was killed by heat back then, and now that I think about it, it should be heat stroke!"

………………

The summer is hot, which is the high incidence of heat stroke, whether it is in the previous years or around us now, there are heat stroke and heat stroke.

Now that the doctors have come together with the causes of their disease, the harm, and even the prevention, the people of the Great Song Dynasty have paid attention to it.

All of a sudden, the sales of Huoxiang Zhengqi water soared, and many people prepared some at home, and once they felt uncomfortable in hot weather, they took it immediately to prevent heat stroke.

After understanding the dangers, people have consciously avoided working in high temperatures, especially at noon when the sun is at its strongest, to prevent heatstroke.

The announcement of the doctor has caused an uproar in the business community, and the phenomenon of heat stroke has made it difficult for businessmen to recruit workers, especially the proposal of high temperature subsidies, which has caused dissatisfaction among many businessmen.

"What, it's not just two and a half hours and a half hours that you can't work."

"And a high temperature subsidy? Isn't it all money? ”

According to the announcement of the Imperial Medical Department, if you can't work for two and a half hours a day, the worker's working time will be reduced by a small half, and the same work, which was completed in the previous day, will now be completed in at least two days.

Not to mention the need to issue high temperature subsidies, it has increased a lot of costs, which suddenly made many stingy businessmen quite dissatisfied and complained.

Moreover, with the announcement of the doctor, many employees were dissatisfied with the original working environment, which made it very difficult for businessmen to recruit workers.

"What does Fan Taicheng mean by this, when will the Tai Medical Department be able to give orders!" A silk merchant Jia was quite dissatisfied. Silk reeling needs to be carried out in a high-temperature environment, and if high-temperature subsidies are to be issued, they are the first to be affected.

"Yes, the doctor only cares about treating the sick and saving people, and taking care of the business is inevitably a dog with a mouse and a nosy."

Although Shang Jia is oppressed, not everyone can step on it, originally in terms of status, doctors are not much better than Shang Jia. Nowadays, the doctor has taken the initiative to issue an announcement, resulting in a significant increase in the cost of businessmen.

"The dog takes the mouse, I think you are a mouse! Heat stroke and heat stroke are life-threatening matters and doctors cannot sit idly by. Fan Sanming said coldly.

The silk merchant Jia was dissatisfied: "Fan Taicheng's light words will greatly increase the cost of making me wait, and it is not aimed at us." ”

"Nonsense! Fan Taicheng is not targeting businessmen, this is a chance for you to perform! Fan Sanming sneered.

"Give us a chance?" Silk merchant Jia raised his eyebrows, because of the doctor's announcement, he had to spend a lot of extra money, and it was Fan Taicheng who gave him the opportunity to perform! It's simply reversing black and white.

Fan Sanming retorted: "Fan Taicheng and Liao jointly opened up the Silk Road on the road, and proposed to open up the Maritime Silk Road, how much money did you make in the silk industry, why don't you appreciate Fan Taicheng, now just give some hard-working women a little high temperature subsidy, you are like killing your parents, it is simply ungrateful!" No wonder the world thinks so highly of us businessmen, just because you wait for these people! ”

"We ............." The silk merchant's face changed, and he wanted to retort.

Fan Sanming couldn't refute it, and continued: "Also, how many people die every year in the silk reeling workshop because of heat stroke, how many black money you make, and those who are all over the world, not silkworm breeders, those female workers not only can't afford to wear silk, but they can't even save their lives. ”

The silk merchant suddenly looked embarrassed, but he was speechless, because what Fan Sanming said was true, the silk reeling workshop needed to soften the silkworm cocoons with hot water, and the workshop was quite hot, and there were cases of female workers dying of heat stroke every year.

"There are also those who wait, you wait for the workers to work in Kaifeng City, working in the sun under the high temperature, how many people suffer from heat stroke every year." Fan Sanming scolded angrily at the group of merchants.

"We are not indifferent to human life, and we have also bought Huoxiang Zhengqi Water." A businessman sneered.

Fan Sanming shook his head and said: "The Huoxiang Zhengqi Water produced by Fan is supplied to the world at a low price, how can you not know its price, it won't cost a few dollars at all, Huoxiang Zhengqi Water alone is not enough!" Far from enough! If we want to change the world's evaluation of merchants, we must pay attention to hired workers, otherwise once your workers repeatedly die of heatstroke, the reputation of the merchants will be ruined, and you may not be able to establish a merchant department. ”

Many businessmen's faces have changed, businessmen's status is low, and they want to set up a business department to change their status, if it is really rumored that businessmen disregard the lives of employees, I am afraid that the image of businessmen will plummet again.

"Besides, Fan Taicheng's move is also a good intention, if there are employees who really die in your workshop, presumably you will not be able to escape responsibility, at least you will have to lose a lot of money, and you will be held accountable by the government, in comparison, this little money is nothing, and it can also save the image of the businessman, you are not a loss." Fan Sanming is both soft and hard.

Other businessmen who don't need to pay high temperature subsidies have echoed and supported Fan Sanming.

"But this money will come out again after all!" The silk merchant was dissatisfied.

Fan Sanming sneered: "If you refuse to give a high temperature subsidy, and at the same time let human lives appear in the workshop, which damages the image of the businessman, not only will we not help, but we don't want these goods that are stained with human lives." ”

"Not bad!" A group of businessmen nodded one after another, now the establishment of a business capital is the top priority of the business, if anyone ruins the efforts of the business, it will naturally be rejected by other businessmen.

Many businessmen's faces changed, and Fan Sanming's threat can be said to be their lifeblood, even if it is to increase the high temperature subsidy or reduce the working hours, they can earn a little less, or increase the price compensation.

If they are blocked by the whole industry, then they may have no way out, and there is only one way out of business.

At present, with the compromise of silk merchants and others, industries that need to work in high temperatures or under the scorching sun have complied with the regulations of doctors, stopped working for the hottest two and a half hours, and issued high temperature subsidies in hot weather.

"Thank you Fan Taicheng!"

All of a sudden, countless hired laborers cheered in unison, for the first time someone spoke up for these coolies, so that they could reduce their danger and get paid relatively more, so that they had a rare respite and compensation.

……………………

"Hot!"

"It's hot!"

This is the voice of everyone in Kaifeng City.

The summer of the fourth year of Shaosheng was scorching, and the entire Kaifeng City was like a steamer, shrouded in scorching heat.

Because of the doctor's announcement, many people are protected from the harm of heat stroke and heat stroke, but in addition to those who work in the heat, there is another group of people who are extremely unbearable to the heat - that is, pregnant women! ”

"How can it be so hot!"

Fan Fuzhong! Li Qingzhao was wearing a cool tulle and had a big belly, even if he was in the house, he still couldn't feel the slightest coolness.

Fan Zheng explained: "Pregnant women tend to have heat and dryness due to changes in their bodies because they are pregnant, and they are more intolerant to heat than ordinary people, which is a very common phenomenon. ”

Li Qingzhao was a little relieved at this time, and reached out to stroke his bulging abdomen, looking helpless.

"There should still be ice in the house, and when Lian'er takes it, it will be cooler." Fan Zheng comforted.

Kaifeng City is not without ways to escape the heat, and ice is one of them.

However, the ice of this era is not so simple as in later generations, but to dig an ice cellar underground in advance, and in winter, cut the thick ice in the Bianhe River, and then transport it to Kaifeng City, put the ice cellar, and seal it.

Wait until the summer is the hottest, and then open the ice cellar, take out the ice stored in it to escape the heat, but this method, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the loss is quite large, ordinary people naturally can not enjoy this treatment, only the rich and noble can have the opportunity to enjoy.

Fan Mansion naturally also has an ice cellar, which stores ice cubes, in order to take care of the pregnant Li Qingzhao, Fan Mansion is that all the ice cubes are supplied to Li Qingzhao in a centralized manner.

"Miss, there is no ice in the house anymore." At this moment, Lian'er hurried over to report a bad news.

"Not so soon?" Fan Zheng frowned.

Lian'er said helplessly: "Uncle doesn't know, Miss feels stuffy as soon as it's hot, so she uses ice cubes, plus this year is too hot, and there is too much loss of ice storage, and now the ice in the house has melted away." ”

Fan Zheng couldn't help but sigh, this year's summer is indeed a little hot and abnormal, and he got up and said, "Then I'll borrow some ice from other mansions." ”

"Hey! Forget it, you are a dignified evil doctor Fan Zheng, if it is spread out as a concubine to borrow ice, wouldn't it make people laugh at the two of us, and now that the weather is hot, there will definitely not be much ice in other mansions. Li Qingzhao hurriedly dissuaded.

Fan Zheng reluctantly turned around and came back, at this time, there was indeed not much ice left, even if he borrowed it, he probably couldn't borrow much.

"Then I'll fan you!"

At that moment, Fan Zheng picked up a pu fan to fan Li Qingzhao.

However, the weather is very hot now, even the wind that comes out of the fan is hot, not to mention, Li Qingzhao is a pregnant woman, so she can't use the fan for a long time.

"Miss, uncle, this is cold water from the well, you two better wash your faces first!" Lian'er was busy sweating, and brought a basin of cold well water from outside the house.

Fan Zheng and Li Qingzhao simply washed their faces, and then they felt a little cool.

"If only it were winter! In winter, you can burn the stove when it's cold, but in the summer, if you don't have ice, you can only endure it. Li Qingzhao sighed. Especially since she is pregnant, not only does she feel more hot, but she can't use cold water often, and once she lacks ice, she can only endure the high temperature.

"Ice!"

Fan Zheng sighed in his heart, the summer air conditioner in later generations is the main force, where is it like the Great Song Dynasty............

No, the future generations are not without ice, at the moment, Fan Zheng had a flash of inspiration and thought of the ice-making method of the later generations, saltpeter to make ice!

"I've got a way to make ice!" Fan Zheng jumped up and said excitedly.

"Don't laugh at the minister, this is summer, and it's scorching heat, how can you make ice in today's hot weather." Li Qing looked at her husband, only to feel that Fan was confused by the heat.

Fan Zheng said solemnly: "Yes, my husband will personally perform an evil art for his wife today, making ice in summer!" ”

At that moment, Fan Zheng immediately ordered to transfer a batch of saltpeter to make gunpowder from the ordnance superintendent, and at the same time asked Fan Zheng to let Lian'er fetch more water, and found two copper basins, one large and one small.

"This can make ice?" Li Qingzhao was puzzled.

Fan Zheng said proudly: "Fan's evil recipe has never been defeated!" ”

Li Qingzhao couldn't help but smile angrily, and looked at Fan Zheng's proud appearance helplessly.

I saw Fan Zheng put a large bag of saltpeter into the huge copper basin water, and soon, the saltpeter dissolved in the water, and then put the small copper basin into the water.

"That's the end of it!" Li Qingzhao's eyes widened, ready to witness Fan Zheng's evil recipe with his own eyes, but he only saw such simple steps.

Fan Zheng nodded and said, "Yes, it's that simple." ”

Next, as Fan Zheng continued to put saltpeter into the large copper basin, the whole room slowly became cooler.

"It's really not hot!" Li Qingzhao said in surprise.

"This copper basin is also cold." Lian'er stepped forward and touched the copper basin, and suddenly felt a chill, and couldn't help but be surprised.

Fan Zheng said proudly: "The reason why I chose to use a copper basin is because the purpose of ice making is to cool down, and adding saltpeter can reduce the temperature of the water, and it can also keep the whole room cool." ”

"And what if you want ice?" Li Qingzhao said happily.

Fan Zheng has already made the whole room extremely cool, and the method of making ice from saltpeter is unmistakable, if it continues to get cold, it will not really be able to make ice.

"Summer Ice Making!" Lian'er couldn't wait.

Fan Zheng smiled and said: "If you want to make ice, it's very simple, just cover the copper basin with a thick quilt!" ”

"Cover with a thick quilt!" The second daughter looked at Fan Zheng in disbelief, if this party was not from Fan Zheng's mouth, I believe that no one would believe it, wouldn't it be hotter to cover a thick quilt in summer, and Fan Zheng actually wanted to use a thick quilt to cover a copper basin and make ice with saltpeter.

Fan Zheng explained: "Why the quilt can keep warm, it is not able to block the cold outside, it means that the cold can not penetrate the quilt at all, in this case, we use the quilt to cover the cold, it will naturally not drift away, as long as the saltpeter is continuously added, it will definitely be able to make ice in summer." ”

"Uncle has another evil recipe?" Lian'er said playfully.

Li Qingzhao shook his head and said, "No! What the husband came out of is a positive prescription, but it is not understood by the world, so it will be called an evil prescription? ”

"Mrs. Someone Who Knows Me too!" Fan Zheng suddenly sighed.

Fan Zheng and Li Qingzhao glanced at each other, and suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.

"I'll go and make ice according to the young master's method!"

Lian'er suddenly felt uncomfortable, even in the cool room, she was restless, and at the moment, she immediately walked out of the room with interest.

"Husband!"

In the room, Li Qingzhao fell into Fan Zheng's arms with a misty look in her eyes, because of pregnancy and hot weather, she and Fan Zheng were uncomfortable even next to each other.

Now with saltpeter ice cooling, the heat of the body is swept away, but the heat of the body cannot be eliminated.

Fan Zheng felt Li Qingzhao's plump body, and his hands gradually became dishonest.

"Female Doctor Zhang said that it is not possible to do it for three months before and after, but it is okay for three months in the middle!" Li Qingzhao whispered in a low voice.

Ordinary officials have three wives and four concubines, and Fan Zheng only has one wife, so Fan Zheng has been suffocated in the past few months, and he is ready to make up for him.

At that moment, Fan Zheng had no worries, the curtain fell quietly, and there were bursts of wheezing in the room. (End of chapter)
