"Sir, we require that the dead bodies be burned for safety reasons. In fact, we have found the cause of this epidemic. These people basically died of a silverfish infection. This silverfish is A kind of parasite that can kill a healthy person after only three days of parasitism. At the same time, they will not die with the death of the host. If these corpses are not burned, these bugs will reappear through various channels. Looking for the next host, so the best way right now is to burn the deceased with fire, so that the disease will not infect more people."
Su Zhirou's explanation at this time only convinced Marquis Wu a little more. In fact, there had been an order from above, which only asked them to cremate the dead bodies, but when there was not enough manpower, everyone was afraid of their lives. Secondly, Dayong all buries their dead in the grave, and the deceased is considered the most important. Wouldn't it be unfilial to burn the corpses of relatives in a fire?
Therefore, even though the above-mentioned orders are like this, when they are passed down to the lower levels, people often disobey them or simply ignore the matter.
Fortunately, these corpses were probably all without owners, so Marquis Wu did not hesitate and just said yes. At the same time, he only urged those people to carry the corpses away.
But for safety reasons, Su Zhirou only distributed some deworming medicine kits to a few people.
After these people left, everyone followed Cuiqiao's second uncle back to Renbenzhai.
At this time, Renbenzhai was in a mess. The second uncle only thanked the other people with his hands, and at the same time called on the hiding men to start cleaning up Renbenzhai.
"Second uncle, we almost found out the troublemaker just now. Why did you let them go? Look at how this Renbenzhai was smashed by them. How can you still do business after this? Huh?" Cuiqiao said angrily.
But the second uncle just shook his head and said, "You little girl, why are you so excited? Of course I have my own reasons for doing this. You think that Yue Weitang is something I can afford to offend. Nowadays, Beijing has drug pricing controls." Basically, they are in charge of the Yueweitang. Their Yueweitang, from Wangliufang to our Ditangfang, has semicolons. We small pharmacies have no other choice but to follow behind them. Yes. And I heard that the steward of Yueweitang is a distant relative of the eldest grandma of the Chen family. If we really fight against them, it will be like hitting a stone with an egg."
"So Yueweitang is quite large. How did you provoke them?" Jiang Nianjiao asked curiously.
The second uncle who was asked just sighed, "I don't know for sure, but I think this is probably related to the fact that I distributed some decoctions for free before. They seemed to have planned to buy and sell these medicinal materials at high prices, but I gave them away for free. Although this small amount of medicinal materials is only a drop in the bucket and cannot affect most businesses, the business of Yueweitang's Semicolon on the same street as me has been affected to some extent. They probably don't understand me, so You just came here to find fault."
Hearing this, the three female family members couldn't help but look at each other. They originally came here with the purpose of borrowing the Weitang place, promoting prevention and control knowledge, and distributing some effective free medicinal materials. Unexpectedly, this city west became The realm of price gouging.
And if they continue to rely on Renzhaitang now, they may have to put Cui Qiao's second uncle in even more trouble.
Therefore, for a while, the original plan could not be opened.
The second uncle who was partial to Cuiqiao still didn't know why and asked, "By the way, I still don't know how to call these benefactors."
When Cui Qiao saw her second uncle asking about this, she took the initiative to introduce him, "The one in white is Medical Officer Su from the Imperial Medical Bureau, and the one in aquamarine skirt is my young lady."
Upon hearing the identities of these two people, Cuiqiao's second uncle immediately became frightened and said, "I wonder what you two are doing here."
"Actually, it's nothing. Medical Officer Su heard that the situation in the west of the city is very serious now, so he wanted to come over and promote some prevention and control measures within his power. In this way, before the drug is developed, we can try to reduce unnecessary deaths, right? .”
Cui Qiao's second uncle was naturally overjoyed when he heard this. "Isn't this a good thing? Let alone borrowing my hospital. If the higher-ups find out, I'm afraid they will have to come over in person to escort a few of them."
"That's not necessary. Our young lady never likes to leave her name behind when she does good deeds." Cui Qiao brazenly pretended to be a good person for Jiang Nianjiao.
Jiang Nianjiao almost rolled her eyes when she heard this. Only then did she realize that Cuiqiao was really good at blowing. Her words only coaxed her second uncle to look at them as if he had seen a living Bodhisattva.
However, can Jiang Nianjiao say that she came here purely because she was afraid that something might happen to Su Zhirou?
"It's a good thing that the girls can borrow my Renbenzhai. After I clean it up, I will organize it for the girls. If you have any requests, just ask." This Cuiqiao's second uncle is also a neat person. , without even asking them in detail what they wanted to do, they agreed.
He was so cheerful that Su Zhirou felt a little embarrassed. "Otherwise, we should set up another stall. If the people from Yue Weitang find out about this, I'm afraid they will cause trouble again. After all, we are doing it for the better." To promote it, a batch of free medicinal materials will also be distributed.”
As soon as he said this, the second uncle, who had suffered a disaster just because of this incident, was obviously hesitant.
However, Cui Qiao patted her chest and promised, "As long as I'm here, I'll see what trouble they dare to find."
"Can you still protect your second uncle? Okay, let's set up a stall outside." Jiang Nianjiao took the initiative to say.
The second uncle immediately said, "How can this be done? You two are going out to set up a stall alone at this moment. If you don't have the permission of the government, I'm afraid that Yue Weitang can use this to cause trouble. Although I know that the two girls have noble status, the government may not dare to No matter what you do with the two of you, it’s always unpleasant to go to the government office.”
"We have done good deeds, but the government still gives us trouble? What's the point of this?" Cui Qiao was immediately dissatisfied after hearing this.
Jiang Nianjiao understood somewhat when she heard that she was going to visit the government.
At present, they have indeed not reported to the government, and they are preparing porridge and giving medicine privately. If they encounter difficult people, they may have to bear the reputation of having ulterior motives. And if the government knows whose daughter they are, her father's smart political opponents will be afraid that A group of senior officials from the House of Representatives will gather again to try to win people's hearts.
If his father knew about this, he was afraid that he would be grounded until the day Zhao Yanzhen came to marry him.
But right now, I still don’t know if I can successfully marry into Prince Jin’s palace. If something happens during this period, will I really do what he said?
Thinking of this, Jiang Nianjiao only said, "Then I'd better trouble my second uncle and Miss Su to deal with this matter together. Second uncle, don't worry, Cui Qiao's matter is my business. During these days, not only Cui Qiao will be here, I will also arrange for a few more people to stay here to ensure that when the epidemic is over, the Yueweitang people will not dare to come to you for any trouble."
"As for after the epidemic, I guess that Yueweitang must be too busy taking care of itself, and has no intention of causing any trouble to you."
With Jiang Nianjiao's promise, Cui Qiao's second uncle naturally no longer had any worries.
After that, Su Zhirou spent almost the whole morning cooperating with her second uncle to promote the epidemic prevention measures.
I heard that there were free medicinal materials available, and many people came running over.
The medicinal materials Su Zhirou prepared were basically packed in bags. She only told everyone that they could light one pill in the house every day. This method could drive away silverfish.
Then she told everyone to pay attention to drinking water and food hygiene.
After hearing this, many people just felt bored. However, when they heard that if there was a sick person in the family, they should have as little contact with them as possible and asked them to cremate the deceased. As expected, Su Zhirou was besieged by everyone.
No matter how Su Zhirou explained, this group of people just besieged Su Zhirou angrily.
No matter how Su Zhirou explained at the top of his lungs, they were just stubborn.
Some people even saw that Su Zhirou was just a weak woman, and some of them even tried to take Su Zhirou's hat off by using Su Zhirou's seductive words to confuse the public.
Fortunately, after Jiang Nianjiao saw what was going on over there, Cui Qiao was able to grab the man's hand in time.
Then Cui Qiao took action and threw the person to the ground.
The group of people who had almost surrounded Su Zhirou just now were frightened and stepped back slightly.
Cuiqiao glared at her, and they didn't dare to step forward.
Perhaps because Cuiqiao was too fierce, the place where the argument had been going on just now fell silent for an instant, and the only person still shouting was the man who wanted to attack Su Zhirou.
Cuiqiao only gave a lesson: "Which of you dares to move your hands or feet again! Auntie, I will chop off his claws first!"
Being frightened by Cuiqiao, she suddenly
The people who were still arguing were so frightened that they all ran away from the door.
Jiang Nianjiao was not surprised at all by this situation.
Su Zhirou obviously felt a little pity, so she just said loudly, "Don't run away yet, I haven't finished telling you the other precautions yet."
It's a pity that after those people were scared away, there was no way she could retain them just by speaking out.
Seeing everyone running away, Su Zhirou could only sigh and said in frustration, "All these people have run away."
Jiang Nianjiao only said, "If you don't run away, they should do something to you. Okay, won't they accept the medicinal materials you gave them now? This will have some effect, which is better than nothing."
Su Zhirou could only give up at this time, and at the same time thanked Cui Qiao and Jiang Nianjiao.
After all, when the man tried to come over and lift her hat, she was really frightened.
Jiang Nianjiao didn't care much. After all, it was because she expected this situation that she insisted on coming with Su Zhirou. Otherwise, she would be alone. She wouldn't save anyone at the moment. She wouldn't be harmed by others. She is considered very lucky.
Jiang Nianjiao also knew that it was difficult for two fists to defeat four hands at the moment, and it was difficult to distinguish between people's feelings with reason.
Therefore, after rescuing Su Zhirou, she only told Su Zhirou that this matter should be left to someone with credibility and execution ability.
