Chapter 285 Epidemic
Nangong Lin and Jiang Baoyu actually thought of a place. Yin Shiyu had just walked to the gate when he saw Nangong Lin leading a doctor back, and the two groups almost bumped into each other.

"It's amazing."

Yin Shiyu scratched the back of his head and said in puzzlement: "How do you know that Jiang Dianyi wants to hire a doctor? I haven't informed you yet?"

As soon as Jiang Baoyu saw Nangong Lin's figure, he hurried down and asked, "What did you hear outside?"

Nangong Lin first ordered Boliang to arrange everyone to line up for medical treatment, and then nodded with Jiang Baoyu: "I went to Duzhisi today, met the imperial doctor, and talked to him about the floating corpse in Luoshui, and he reminded me to prepare early. .”

Jiang Baoyu frowned, and couldn't help looking back at those refugees who didn't know why, but obediently lined up to see the doctor, and sighed softly: "I hope what we are doing now, there is still time."

"It's in time! It must be in time!"

Yin Shiyu finally understood a little bit, stared at the two with big eyes, and said when the two looked at him: "Since Jiang Dianyi came, our life in the nursing home has changed a lot, everyone They all pay attention to food hygiene, and their lives have become more regular. Although the typhoid fever came last year, the number of people in our nursing home was the least sick.

Don't worry, you two, no matter what happens, we will be fine here. "

Jiang Baoyu also felt that what Yin Shiyu said was reasonable, he was finally relieved, and was about to go out.

"Hey? Didn't your lord say that you should have less contact with outsiders in the near future? What are you going to do?"

Yin Shiyu hurriedly called Jiang Baoyu to stop.

"I have to go to Mingyue Tower, and I have to inform the Jiang family about this."

"no need."

Nangong Lin hurriedly said: "Just now when we were chatting with the imperial physician, Uncle Yong Fu happened to be there, and I will write a letter to explain the matter later, and it is safest to let the imperial court notify."

Jiang Baoyu then let go of his heart and only concentrated on doing the things in front of him.

Fortunately, the doctor checked and found that the refugees in the official nursing home did not have any serious problems. There may be chronic diseases, but there are no infectious diseases.

"If you are worried, you can sprinkle lime on the courtyard wall and floor, boil the food utensils in boiling water before using them, and wash and clean your body frequently. If this is the case, you may be able to avoid disasters."

The doctor gave some advice, Jiang Baoyu and others kept it in mind, and sent him away.

I did everything in the next few days, and there really wasn't any big trouble.

But most of the nursing homes in Shendu City were not so lucky.

Although Yong Fubo immediately summoned the deacons of the major nursing homes to discuss the matter after he returned from the Duzhi Division.

But most people think that Uncle Yong is making a fuss over a molehill, and that he is just some homeless refugees who no one cares about. If you can give them a place to live and give them a stutter, it is already doing good deeds.

Last year, in response to the imperial court's call, it cost a lot to make felt bags for the refugees, and now many people are unwilling to spend on things that have no margin.

Although Yong Fu Bo is the head of the Chamber of Commerce, the Nursing Home is not a profit-making organization after all. It is a voluntary charity of each family, so naturally it has its own charter.

It was inconvenient for him to force him, so he had to take care of himself and follow the rules in Jiang Baoyu's letter.

Although those nursing homes that did not follow suit were unwilling to spend any more on this matter, they did not treat the refugees harshly in order to accumulate virtue and do good deeds on weekdays. If there were no external influences, there would be no major problems.

The blame is to blame some black nursing homes that do not comply with the regulations. Under the banner of the nursing home, they practice the business of running dogs and dogs, domesticating boys and girls with better appearance, and wanting to sell them for a good price. This kind of coercion and lure made him sign a contract of selling himself to be a coolie to redeem himself.

Started a free business.

Even if there were casualties, they were unwilling to spend money on medical treatment, and nothing happened in the river.

At the beginning, the matter was well covered up, and no one found out. After a long time, many people died, and the incident of floating corpses in Luoshui happened. When the superiors arrested them, the masters of these black nursing homes panicked, and people died overnight. Go to the empty building.

Only some refugees who were injured and sick were left behind.

They had nowhere to go, so they had to go to a nearby nursing home where they could go.

For the sake of a way out, he refused to tell the truth, and flung his sick body around.

In less than half a month, there were signs of the spread of the disease in most of the nursing homes in Shendu.

At first, it was only spread among refugees. They were already in difficult conditions, and they were afraid of being driven home again, and they didn't dare to speak out about minor illnesses or disasters.

Later, it spread among the handymen in the nursing home, harming the family members, until the scope became wider and wider, and finally on the day when the imperial physician was going to be on duty in Huimin's office, after a few cases, something was wrong.

After careful questioning, the old man turned pale with fright and almost fell down.

"The old man clearly told them to prepare early, why is it still like this?"

He hurriedly called his colleagues, and after discussing with them in detail, he wrote a letter to the emperor.

Up to this moment, the fact that the gods have a disease has not yet spread among the common people.

Just overnight, notices were pasted in front of the streets and alleys of Shendu, which said the three things that the doctor Nangong Lin had invited earlier told them.

Lime, boil water, and take a bath frequently.

Early this morning, when Yin Shiyu came to the yamen to be on duty, he took off this notice from the door, and walked to Jiang Baoyu and Nangong Lin with a puzzled look on his face.

"It's really strange. When did the imperial court take care of such nosy matters? You don't know. On the way here, there are stickers everywhere in the streets and alleys."

Jiang Baoyu and Nangong Lin looked at the notice and frowned, feeling bad.

Seeing Bo Liang rushing in from outside, he said from a long distance: "My lord, it's not good! It's not good!"

But because the refugees were nearby, he didn't want to say it clearly. After entering the yamen, he whispered in the ears of several people: "The imperial court arrested several people from nursing homes overnight last night. Those who worked in the yamen, even family members, who had any contact with them, were pulled by bullock carts and sent to the wasteland on the outskirts of the city to be locked up together."

"Closed up? Which nursing homes are they?"

Jiang Baoyu got up suddenly, very anxious.

Bo Liang was more anxious than her, "I'm afraid there are not only a few places, but they are still arresting people. When I came here just now, the Habayashi guards were still arresting people."

As soon as he finished speaking, a pair of men and horses suddenly came outside, all wearing veils and armor, and they surrounded the entire nursing home in a short time.

"Refugees in the city are suspected of spreading the epidemic. According to the emperor's orders, I want to transfer all of you to the outskirts of the city for resettlement. Anyone who violates the order will be punished!"

Before Jiang Baoyu and the others could say anything, angrily cursing came from an ox cart in front of the door.

"Let this old man get off the car, do you know who this old man is? This old man wants to meet the emperor! Meet the emperor!"
