"Let's make it a points system!" Mu Siyu thought for a while and said, "The more you work, the more points you will get, and the points can be exchanged for many things, such as daily necessities, money, and even houses."
"House?" Qi Xiao, who was about to drink a drink, stopped what he was doing and raised his eyes to look at her, "The food grown in the military camp is for military food. The soldiers have no benefit, so naturally they don't want to be thankless. If you do more based on the
If you can get benefits, some people will indeed be willing to consider it.”
"If you perform well, you can also share wives." Mu Siyu smiled lightly, "After all, there are many widows in this city. It is impossible to keep them widowed forever, right? We have to consider their marriage."
"Did you know that those who keep their husband's chastity will get a chastity arch in ten years?" Qi Xiao said, "Many women are unwilling to have another marriage for the rest of their lives because of this chastity arch."
"If you have a good relationship with your husband, and you are willing to keep integrity for him, it is for love, and I completely agree. If you are heartless and loveless, just for the eyes of others, then there is no need. We in Tongyang City do not need such pedantic thoughts." Mu.
Siyu said, "The people here have experienced a lot of hardships. I hope they can live as they please for the rest of their lives and be less restrained."
Qi Xiao smiled lightly: "There is a weirdo like you in this world, and I don't know how many people's lives you have affected."
"The roast duck can't stop your mouth."
The two of them had roast duck. Qi Xiao did not go back to his residence, but followed Mu Siyu to the government office. Accompanied by several confidants, they discussed the details of the points system.
Lu Zhiyun came in with rice dumplings made from lees.
"Uncle Qi, I asked the kitchen to make some small desserts for late night snacks. You guys have been discussing it for so long. You must be hungry. Eat something hot!"
"Thank you." Qi Xiao took it and asked, "How is Xiaoyun'er doing lately?"
"Everything is going well." Lu Zhiyun said, "The villagers are very enthusiastic about their work and can't wait to see the harvest right away. But I told them that there is no rush in the first year."
"The guests from Yaowang Valley came today, did you see them?" Mu Siyu asked.
"Yes. Senior brother also introduced me and Miss Yin." Lu Zhiyun said, "When I went to the kitchen just now, I heard that Miss Yin was still studying her condition in the room and did not take a break. She asked the servants in the kitchen to
She sent a copy over."
"Tomorrow you will be mainly responsible for cooperating with the people in Yaowang Valley." Mu Siyu said, "I think that Miss Yin is quite good. Maybe you two can get along. You are my daughter, and you will receive them personally.
Show my sincerity. If they lack anything, having you by your side also means that you are my city lord’s palace."
"I see."
"Are you planning to settle down in Yaowang Valley?"
"They have this intention." Mu Siyu said, "Yaowang Valley has a good reputation. It stands to reason that everyone would like to hold them in their hands and not dare to offend them easily. According to that Miss Yin, life in Yaowang Valley is not
It’s not that peaceful.”
"Yao Wang Valley is not only good at treating people, but also good at killing people. There are always some people in this world who want to harm and kill people. It's hard for Yao Wang Valley to be caught in the middle. This request they made is normal, not to mention yours.
As your reputation becomes more and more famous, it is normal for them to want your protection. After all, you are not an official of the imperial court, but you represent the attitude of the imperial court."
"I wrote a note and sent someone to rush it to the capital. Let the emperor decide everything!"
"good."
"It's getting late, so I won't send General Qi off."
Qi Xiao stood up and said, "Madam has many things to do every day, and the general will not dare to let her see you off."
Mu Siyu chuckled and rolled her eyes.
Several people nearby laughed.
After Qi Xiao left, Chanyi and Shangzhi helped Mu Siyu wash up.
"General Qi is quite old, why don't you have any intention of getting married?"
"With him looking like that, which woman would dare to marry him?" Mu Siyu said, "However, when fate comes, no one can stop him. He hasn't met the person who makes him fall in love yet!"
The next day, Lu Zhiyun accompanied Yin Yingzhu throughout the whole process.
As soon as Lu Zhiyun appeared, the male disciples of Yaowang Valley stared straight in their eyes. When they learned that she was the daughter of Prime Minister Lu and City Lord Mu, they all praised God's love for her.
When Li Guyuan passed by, he saw a long queue of patients. Lu Zhiyun and his servants were responsible for preparing various medicinal materials. The disciples of Yaowang Valley were concentrating on the treatment.
"Why are they all prescribed the same medicinal materials?" Li Guyuan asked.
"Because they all have the same disease." Lu Zhiyun lowered his voice and said, "But with the treatment of these doctors from Yaowang Valley, I think their symptoms have been alleviated."
"Have you found out the cause?"
"Doctor Yin said it needs to be confirmed again. She will do the final verification after seeing the patient today."
"I sent people to invite five doctors from the neighboring city. Since the doctors from Yaowang Valley are here to take charge, let them take action!"
"Okay, there are so many patients, and they are so busy that they don't even have time to eat lunch. I asked someone to make some pastries. They took advantage of the free time to eat pastries to fill their stomachs."
Yin Yingzhu finally found out that the cause of the disease was water.
Mu Siyu listened to Yin Yingzhu's words and followed her to the creek where half of the people in Tongyang City would carry water for food.
The water in the river is clear and there is nothing wrong with it.
However, Mu Siyu knew that just because the problem was not visible to the naked eye, it did not mean that there was no problem. She believed in Yin Yingzhu's judgment, so the water source was a big issue that needed to be dealt with urgently.
"Madam, what are you thinking about?" Yin Yingzhu asked.
"I'm thinking, I have to be busy again." Mu Siyu said helplessly, "If the water is not clean, of course there will be more patients. How can there be no taboos about the things at the entrance? I didn't think carefully."
"Mom, do you have any idea?"
"Yes! In fact, there are many methods among the people, but everyone can't even fill their stomachs, so how can they have time to purify water?" Mu Siyu said, "What I have to do is to find a more convenient method."
Although she is unable to make a modern water purifier, it is still possible to make a similar one with a water purification effect of up to 90%.
In fact, people who are more particular will also use methods to purify water, but ordinary people are not so leisurely. They will comfort themselves by saying that it is not clean and they will not get sick after eating it.
Next, Mu Siyu left Li Guyuan and several new craftsman disciples behind and taught them how to make a simple water purifier.
In about ten days, a water purifier was installed on each of the two commercial streets. There was a large wooden barrel on top of the water purifier, and the barrel was filled with water.
There are five wooden faucets below. When the faucets are turned on, clear water flows out.
"What's this?"
"This is purified water." Li Guyuan said, "Madam made this water purifier just to let everyone drink clean water. Recently, many patients have been ill not because of any curse, but because the water is not clean. With this
Things, you will never drink unclean water again."
"Isn't this thing expensive?"
"After one month, bring your household registration book, and each household will receive one for free. However, there is only one chance. If it is damaged by someone, then you can buy it with your own money! The price is not expensive, only fifty taels of silver each.
.”
When everyone heard the price, they immediately grimaced.
But I thought about getting one for free. As long as it is not damaged intentionally, it will be enough.
