Chapter 77 Plague in the North

Gu Heng made a lot of money using milk tea. He originally wanted to give Zhang Dai some as a thank you, but Zhang Dai refused to accept it and said, "Hengbo, if it weren't for your idea, how would I have so much delicious milk tea to drink now? I don't want this money."

, just let me know if you have any good food ideas next time, and let me be the first to try your delicious food without charging me any money!"

"How can I collect your money? As long as it's any delicacy in my Meilou or my current "Daotian" teahouse, you can eat it as much as you want without paying!" Gu Heng said with a smile.

.

"Okay, but I have to go back to Shaoxing. I will come to Jinling again when I have time!" Zhang Dai said.

"Okay, when you come to Jinling, just remember to come and visit my eyebrow building!" Gu Heng said.



In the blink of an eye, summer came, and Liu Fang, who was far away in the north, wrote a letter saying that although it went smoothly while doing business and building a business point, when he arrived near Damingfu, he did not dare to go further because of Damingfu in Henan, Shunde Prefecture in Xingtai, and Hejian Prefecture.

There is already a plague, and the plague is very serious!

After Gu Heng read all the contents of the letter, he felt that the situation was very serious, because this time the plague in Henan and Hebei would spread to the capital in a few years, causing many people to die in the capital, and people in the palace were infected with the plague. Emperor Chongzhen

The ministers and ministers were helpless, and the combat effectiveness of the army was greatly reduced. When Li Zicheng finally arrived, there were not many people left in the capital!

Although there are not many business sites built in Liu Fang, Dr. Wu Youxing and his disciples must be allowed to go to prevent and control the plague, otherwise more people will die!

So Gu Heng hurriedly rode a carriage to the "Daotian" Medical Center and found Wu Youxing. In a secluded room in the medical center, Gu Heng and Wu Youxing sat opposite each other. Gu Heng said with a worried look on his face: "Mr. Wu

, there is another plague in the north! This time in Hejian Prefecture in Hebei, Shunde Prefecture in Xingtai, and Daming Prefecture in Henan, the epidemic is very serious!"

Wu Youxing suddenly became nervous and asked immediately: "Do you know the specific situation?"

"It is said that someone accidentally developed a fat bulge and died soon after. The local people called it the pimple plague. Most people who contracted the pimple plague would often have symptoms of coughing up blood in the spring. As long as one person gets this disease, they usually

Other people in the family will also get the disease, and eventually the whole family will die."

After Gu Heng finished speaking, Wu Youxing thought for a while and said, "Do you know what caused it in the first place?"

"I don't know the specific reasons in other areas, but I have friends who are doing business near Damingfu. They know that there has been no rainfall in Damingfu for many years. The people have suffered from rat plagues, and the crops in the fields have suffered severe droughts and horrific locust plagues. At that time, locusts were all over the sky, and swarms of them were everywhere.

Groups of them pounced on the broad farmland in the suburbs, chewing up all the seedlings, wheat, corn, etc.," Gu Heng replied.

Gu Heng thought about the modern history of the Ming Dynasty that he was familiar with, and thought that the pimple plague should be the plague, so he continued: "I guess that the famine caused by drought caused rats to migrate in groups. But some rats have

There is such a plague because some people have seen the "thrilling" scene: thousands of fat rats biting each other's tails and crossing the rivers as if they were dead, even if countless companions died behind them."

"And at this time, there are groups of refugees who have fled war or famine everywhere. They are hungry and cold, and of course they are not picky about food. Even if they see a dead rat, they should think that it is meat, and it will be delicious when grilled!"

"On the one hand, the drought caused rats to move on a large scale, and on the other hand, the famine made the refugees have no scruples. They not only looked for food stored in rat holes, but also ate the rats that died on the roadside. The spread of the plague also

It’s inevitable.”

After hearing what Gu Heng said, Wu Youxing said: "Miss Gu, your analysis is not unreasonable. But I still need to go to the place where the plague is to see it in person to know how to prescribe the right medicine."

"This is natural. I came here today hoping that Mr. Wu can take your current apprentices to the north to prevent and control the plague. Of course, I will cover all your expenses. Along the way, you will meet businessmen with the "Daotian" logo.

You can go there to rest and replenish what you need on the road." Gu Hengdao.

"How do we get the business points with the "Daotian" logo along the way to accept us? After all, we don't know each other." Wu Laodao.

"Don't worry, Mr. Wu. I will have people in charge of the business points along the way to the north be notified later to let them know that you are coming, and take care of your food, accommodation and other things that need to be replenished. In addition, you can get

Hold this."

After Gu Heng finished speaking, he took out a copper sign with the word "Daotian" engraved on it and the modern pinyin of the word "Daotian". This was made by Gu Heng before by Bo Jue to facilitate "Daotian" in different places.

People from the "Daotian" business point go to other places to do tasks, and the people from "Daotian" can use this voucher to go to any "Daotian" business point they can see to seek reasonable help.

Seeing that Wu Youxing was a little confused, Gu Heng quickly told Wu Youxing the function of the bronze medal. After Wu Youxing understood it, he sighed: "Miss Gu, if you were a man, you would definitely not be in the pool!"

"Mr. Wu, don't worry about this now, it's important for us to save people," Gu Heng said.

"That's right, I'm going right away." After Wu Youxing said that, he stood up and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Wu, let me introduce some important situations to you first. It won't be too late for you to go after we have discussed the countermeasures! Otherwise, you may have encountered difficulties or dangers before you even reach the location of the plague!" Gu Heng shouted.

Wu Youxing.

Seeing what Gu Heng said, Wu Youxing sat down again and said, "Miss Gu, please speak."

"According to what my friend said in the letter, he witnessed three victims of famine, three victims of epidemics, and four thieves. The grain price increased to twenty-four taels of silver and one stone. After a person dies, others will eat him.

There are even cases of Yi Zi cannibalizing himself. So the safety issue is particularly important." Gu Heng said seriously.

"Miss Gu has thought carefully, but I am a little too impatient." Wu Youxing said frankly about his shortcomings.

"Mr. Wu, you are so anxious to save that you didn't think so much. We are going to save the people in the north who have been infected with the plague or are about to be infected with the plague, but we must have a plan and be well prepared to rescue them," Gu Hengdao.

"In your opinion, what should I do as the first step now?" Wu Youxing asked after calming down.

"Before going to the north to rescue people, I want Mr. Wu to give your apprentices some training first," Gu Heng said.

"Training? What do you mean?" Wu Youxing was confused.

"Just explain to your apprentices the possible situations that may arise in the north where you are going, and let them think about it. They must have the spirit of not being afraid of hardship, the attitude of being highly responsible for patients, and the spirit of not being afraid of sacrifice, etc. If they

If you are still willing to follow you to the north to save those poor people, Mr. Wu can take these apprentices there."
