Li Min walked towards Anlefang, when the entire Anlefang was surrounded. The army has taken control of this place. No one can come and go as they please except them.
No one can get out from here, and no one dares to come in.
As he walked, he saw a beautiful figure appearing in front of him.
It was Ji Ruxue. She was wearing a mask at this time. Although she couldn't see her face clearly, her whole temperament was enhanced by the mask.
As soon as she saw Li Min appeared.
Just trot over.
The soldiers on the side were dumbfounded.
After all, the person in front of her is a famous beauty in the entire Chang'an city.
Everyone is envious of Li Min's good fortune.
When Ji Ruxue arrived.
He said: "Mr. Zili!"
"Well! Now His Majesty has released 800,000 taels, and I want you to supervise the production of 100,000 masks outside in two days!"
It was not difficult for the group to produce 100,000 masks in two days, but the situation is different now. All the manpower has been transferred to other places, and there are not many people available for Ji Ruxue.
"But we don't have enough manpower!"
Li Min also knew this.
He thought of the Cui family, now was their time to show off.
"You can let the Cui family join in and let them do it together!"
"Understood! In this case, that's okay!"
"Also, I want you to vaccinate everyone with the vaccine from my laboratory!"
Li Min said.
"But the one you vaccinated before?"
"That's right. After my testing, the method works!"
"You're taking too many risks! Why don't you let someone else try it first?"
"I will only do things I am sure of, so don't worry about this! You must vaccinate everyone! But if you have had smallpox, you can avoid vaccination. It may be a little uncomfortable at first, but after a few days It will recover. Minor reactions can be overcome, but if not, I have medicines made by me in my laboratory, and there are corresponding ones on them, so I can prescribe the right medicine for you!"
Li Min thought a lot and thought of all possibilities.
"clear!"
"Okay, you can go back!"
"Then you must be careful!"
"Go!"
Li Min turned around and jumped into the fight against the epidemic.
Ji Ruxue reluctantly left Anlefang.
Under Li Min's leadership, the condition in Anlefang gradually turned around.
But other parts of Chang'an City are not good.
From time to time, a case appears, and when a case occurs, a place is closed. The army began to be short of manpower. Fortunately, people volunteered to join in and resist together, so the situation eased a bit.
…
At this time, in the Tai Chi Palace, Li Shimin was listening to a report on the smallpox epidemic.
He felt shocked at first, and then relieved.
Then I was puzzled.
The mood is very strange.
"What are you talking about? Smallpox also appeared in five other districts in Chang'an?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, but fortunately the Sixth Prince made preparations in advance and sealed off the place where smallpox was found! They also distributed something called a mask, which is said to prevent the invasion of smallpox. Strangely enough, after having a mask, you can't get sick There are fewer and fewer people!”
"Mask? What is it? It can be so magical!"
Li Shimin said in confusion.
Then someone took one out.
He also gestured and said that as long as you protect your mouth and nose, you won't get sick!
Li Shimin found it novel.
Why is this Li Min's head so useful?
He is thinking!
Queen Changsun on the side said:
"I said he could do it! What he did was really surprising. The Tang Dynasty is really lucky to have him. Perhaps he was sent by God to help Your Majesty rule the world!"
Li Shimin was silent.
Maybe he was thinking about what Queen Changsun said.
"Two more things!"
The eunuch said half of what he said, but did not say it.
"What's the matter? Tell me quickly. Do you want to scare me to death?"
"The sixth prince spent tens of thousands taels to buy a batch of sick cows. When the eldest son Shunde questioned this, he slapped him three times!"
"What did this kid do to buy this sick cow? And he beat Changsun Shunde? Why? This is power, but he still hasn't changed!"
Li Shimin was puzzled.
Queen Changsun said: "Maybe it's because of the smallpox treatment, right?"
“What does sick cows have to do with smallpox?”
Li Shimin asked back. Next, his focus was not on the beating of eldest grandson Shunde, but on the sick cow.
After all, that’s where the money is spent.
How could Queen Changsun know this?
"I don't know this either, but he must have a reason for doing this!"
"Well, three days have passed in the past ten days, and he still has seven days left. Although the number of smallpox cases has decreased, he has not completely eradicated smallpox. I am still a little worried! After all, there was no cure for this disease before. of!"
It would be a lie to say that he was not worried. Li Shimin was very cautious about smallpox. If it weren't for Sun Simiao's insistence, he might not reuse Li Min. Now it was equivalent to placing all the bets on Li Min.
I want to succeed, but I am afraid of failing miserably.
Li Shimin felt very conflicted.
"Your Majesty, everything is going well. Even if it cannot be eliminated, it will take a month and a half. As long as the disease can be controlled, the people will survive. Isn't that something to be thankful for?"
"right!"
Li Shimin sighed.
Then something came to mind.
"You said there was another thing?"
he asks.
At this time, the eunuch said: "The Ministry of Revenue has said that the production of masks will be increased recently, and for some raw material supplies, the famous families have uniformly raised the prices, making our costs extremely high. If we continue like this, it will cost 800,000 yuan." I’m afraid it will be consumed soon! Also, they have raised the price of food!”
Regarding this matter, it is because the family is profitable, and every little bit it can make is worth it.
This made Li Shimin very angry.
An inscription was erected some time ago to let the family know about the epidemic, and they also contributed money. Overall, the treasury made hundreds of thousands of taels.
But the money doesn't mean they can do whatever they want.
It doesn't mean that Li Shimin won't operate on them.
Especially when the epidemic is serious, they dare to do this. It is simply asking for death!
"These businessmen are doing evil, which makes me very sad. Now is the time for everyone to unite as one. I must severely punish them for this kind of behavior!"
Li Shimin showed his anger.
Then he ordered: "Check! Get to the bottom of it and let those who drive up prices be punished! Those who are particularly serious will be cut off directly!"
He was furious, these aristocratic families were really unattractive.
Why not learn from Shengtang Group?
Together with the Cui family, they made a large number of masks.
It was provided free of charge to the people of the entire Tang Dynasty.
But on the other side are these greedy businessmen who are only interested in profit and actually do some such things.
Li Shimin's order was issued directly, and someone was quickly punished.
Until the time of Anlefang.
After hearing this, Li Min laughed.
