Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 714 Imperial Physician Temple

In the Palace of Qianqing, Zhou Wang Zhu Ju told his father and brother exactly what he had experienced in fighting acne in Ningguo.

Of course, cowpox was not recognized by the people at the beginning.Lao Wu was not able to completely defeat the pox plague simply by relying on cowpox.

As soon as he arrived in Ningguo, he immediately ordered the county officials to isolate those who were sick; strengthen disinfection for those who were not sick, and burn all the garbage generated by the sick; used household utensils should be burned if possible, but not if not. It should also be boiled thoroughly before use.

"In addition, I have also issued a mandatory order that people in each village must stay at home for 20 days, otherwise they will be sentenced to [-] days of imprisonment. If anyone has a fever and headache, Baojia Village must report it in time and isolate it in time."

"Why is this?" Boss Zhu asked.

"This is to cut off the source of infection. This method has been around since ancient times. Not only for dealing with pox, but also for plague, typhoid and other infectious diseases, it can effectively prevent the spread of the epidemic and greatly reduce the number of infections." Lao Wu replied in a deep voice. People are full of confidence.

"Well, that makes sense." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and praised: "I didn't expect that Lao Wu's arrangements were quite thorough."

"I don't dare to be greedy for credit. This is actually the advice Lao Liu gave me before setting off." Lao Wu said with admiration on his face: "It was only when I arrived in the epidemic area that I realized that everything he said was true knowledge and insight. I don't know why I have to leave." How many detours will it take to put an end to the epidemic in advance?"

"Haha, Fifth Brother is honored." Lao Liu secretly felt proud. In this era, no one knows how to fight the epidemic better than him...

However, in order to avoid being questioned, he still passed the blame as usual and said very modestly: "I only asked the teacher for advice."

Liu Bowen from Chengyi House will inevitably sneeze again...

"There is nothing that this old immortal doesn't know." Zhu Yuanzhang had to accept it and told Lao Liu: "You must learn from your master and squeeze him dry before he dies."

"Father, what are you talking about..." The prince couldn't listen anymore and changed the topic: "Lao Wu, continue talking."

"For patients who already have acne, I manage them separately according to severity and severity, so as to prescribe the right medicine." Lao Wu sighed:

"But at present, there is no prescription that can truly cure acne. Whether it is the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor at the imperial hospital or the ancient prescription in the medical book, it can only clear away heat, detoxify, reduce swelling and relieve pain, reduce the pain of the patient, and reduce some deaths. It's just the number of people...the real purpose of gathering them together is to prevent more people from being infected.

"But there was an unexpected effect - I took my men to stay with seriously ill patients all day long, and after a month, no one had acne. This made the officials and people of Ningguo County see this, and finally believed that I was not bragging. Cowpox It does prevent smallpox.”

"So, the magistrate of Ningguo County took the lead, and the people in the county began to get vaccinated enthusiastically. However, the supply of the vaccine exceeded the demand, so we had to vaccinate one batch after another, and it was not until the autumn that all the people in the county were fully vaccinated."

"But the report said that there has been no epidemic in Ningguo County since June and July?" Boss Zhu asked in confusion.

"This is exactly the effect of isolation and epidemic prevention." Lao Wu replied: "This just proves that even if there is a lack of medical treatment and no cure, strict epidemic prevention measures can still effectively prevent the spread of the epidemic. Eliminate the plague quickly."

"Well said!" Lao Liu couldn't help but applaud the fifth brother: "I say it's great to see the King of Zhou!"

"Yes." Boss Zhu nodded happily. Ming Dynasty did not have the ability to provide sufficient medical conditions for the people.But this set of epidemic prevention methods seems to be tailor-made for his Lijia system, but it can be vigorously promoted.

"Then why did you come back just now?" the prince asked again.

"Because the neighboring counties saw it, they couldn't sit still anymore. The magistrates and counties invited me to vaccinate their people one after another... I had no choice but to go to the counties to vaccinate. As a result, I was busy until the end of the year before I was basically vaccinated. Finished." Lao Wu replied with a wry smile.

"These people are just thieves." The fourth child couldn't help but scolded: "You have to see that the whole county has been vaccinated and everything is fine and effective, and then you can join in." "Fourth brother, this is human nature." Lao Wu said generously:

"Even in Ningguo County, there were all kinds of things at the beginning. Some people even said that if they were vaccinated with my cowpox, they would grow horns and turn into a minotaur."

"Hahaha." The father and son laughed for a while, and then the prince suggested: "However, the name 'cowpox' is indeed easy for people to misunderstand. I think it is better to change it to 'Zhou Wang Miao'."

"There is no problem in changing the name. My brother has wanted to change it for a long time, but what is the use of calling it 'Zhou Wang Miao'? It is better to call it 'Hongwu Miao' so that the people can appreciate the kindness of their father." King Zhou did not take credit.

He said this not just to flatter him, but to promote cowpox in the most effective way...

"Hongwumiao, haha, what a good name!" Lao Liu and Lao Si understood instantly and immediately echoed:
"Common people all say after using it, Emperor Hongwu is good!"

Even the prince smiled and assisted: "My dynasty is a fire virtue, and fire can extinguish plague. In the future, the Ming Dynasty relied on Hongwu seedlings to eliminate smallpox, the number one plague. It can be said that it is a response to the will of God!"

"Hmm." Zhu Yuanzhang was tickled now and said happily: "Okay, let's call him this name."

Then he ordered Lao Wu: "You will be responsible for this. You must plant 'Hongwu seedlings' for the people of the country within five years!"

"Returning to my father, I am afraid that I will not be able to do it." King Zhou did not dare to follow the edict: "It took more than half a year to build a Ningguo mansion. There are so many state capitals in the country, and I will not be able to do it in ten years."

"Yes, Father." Lao Liu also added: "And ten years from now, there will be a new population that needs to be vaccinated. The fifth brother is covered in iron and can drive a few nails. He will be exhausted."

"If you have any ideas, just tell me. There's no need to beat the drum here." Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily.He didn't understand the other sons, but when Lao Liu flapped his wings, he knew where he was going to fly.

"Yes, you can't hide anything from your father." Zhu Zhen gave an apologetic smile. "My son suggested setting up an agency responsible for national epidemic prevention and improving medical standards - such as the Ministry of Health, or the General Administration of Medicine. It would take charge of Huimin Pharmacies and local medicine in all states and counties, and train them to master vaccination and vaccination as soon as possible. Methods of epidemic prevention.

As he spoke, he said seriously: "In this way, not only can smallpox be prevented and cured, but when other plagues occur, local states and counties will not be helpless and can lead the people to prevent epidemics in an orderly manner and minimize the harm of the epidemic!"

"Hmm." Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up when he heard this. He thought for a moment, then a heartfelt smile bloomed on his round face and said: "Good boy, good idea, I like it very much!"

Then he said to the prince: "Boss, I think this suggestion from the sixth is feasible. You, him and the fifth should think it over carefully and come up with a charter as soon as possible. We should treat it as a major event at the beginning of the new year!"

Boss Zhu, who has always been stingy, actually didn’t consider how much money he would spend...

"Yes, Father." The prince nodded in agreement.

ps. I have basically clarified my thinking.In fact, the main reason is that the next plot, my initial conception, conflicts with everyone's will... Anyone who has written a book knows that this is the most tangled.

After two days of ideological struggle, I decided to follow everyone's wishes. Life is so hard, so I won't cause trouble for everyone.But in this way, many subsequent plots need to be redesigned.I have a headache...

No more tonight, I will update normally tomorrow.
