Chapter 311 Husband and wife are of one mind
Most people felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and they all went to inquire about the registration requirements and whether the assessment content was difficult.
But some people also think that this iron rice bowl is not good enough.
We are going to Nan'an by sea. Who knows what the situation is like outside?
If you lose your life while going out, everything will be in vain. It is better to stay at home in Lingnan and take care of your wife and children, which is more secure.
Some people are willing to take a gamble for wealth and fame, while others just seek immediate stability. It is each person's choice.
Jiang Tangtang did not intervene too much.
Anyway, there are many people in Lingnan now, and in the end we can always select enough people to go to Nan'an.
She focused more of her energy on the suspected epidemic.
In addition to summoning doctors and female doctors to rush to Cangwu, they also had to conduct inspections in various parts of Lingnan to prevent anyone from entering Lingnan with the source of infection.
In addition, official documents were sent to Lu Shiyan and the troops stationed in various places to explain the situation and ask them to be vigilant.
Nowadays, Lingnan raises a large number of carrier pigeons, so official documents no longer need to be delivered by people on horseback, but can be delivered by pigeons.
It is not only fast but also saves manpower.
Soon, Lu Shiyan and the garrisons in various places received official documents, and local officers began to check whether there was any epidemic in the army.
On Jiang Tangtang's side, there was finally a result.
"Madam, after repeated investigations, we discovered that the first people to develop symptoms of high fever and vomiting were the Xirong people who smuggled in from Tongzhou.
Those who initially came into contact with these Western Rong people have all developed varying degrees of symptoms of the disease. I have now sent people to detain these Western Rong people and are interrogating them to determine if this was intentional."
Yuan San knelt on the ground, his face full of self-blame. "It was my negligence and lack of vigilance that allowed these Xirong people to take advantage of the opportunity."
The lady kept him and specially appointed him to oversee all matters big and small in the city because she trusted him.
How could he be so careless?
If the epidemic spreads, the entire Lingnan will suffer, and he will be blamed for it even if he dies.
Jiang Tangtang rubbed his temples, took a deep breath and said, "Don't rush to apologize. Let's work together and deal with this matter first."
Now, the top priority is to determine what kind of disease this is and then come up with a solution to minimize the losses.
The drought is already deadly enough, and there is also the locust plague that may be coming, and now there is a plague.
Even Jiang Tangtang, who has always been optimistic and hardworking, couldn't help but feel tired at this moment.
This is simply turning on the survival mode of hell!
Yuan San stood up and said, "I will go and interrogate those Xirong refugees myself."
Seeing that he was putting his life and death aside, Jiang Tangtang stood up and handed him a key. "I'll punish you after this is over. This is the key to the Yazhou warehouse. Take the key and take someone to get the mugwort from the warehouse. Don't be reluctant to use it. If you need mugwort again, I'll find a way."
Yuan San's eyes were red, and he wanted to slap himself a few times! It was obviously because he was not vigilant enough that Lingnan was harmed. The lady seemed to want to punish him, but in fact she cared about him and wanted him to come back alive.
How could he deserve the lady's mercy?
Yuan San took the key, held it tightly in his hand, and knelt down again. "I will do my best to get things done."
For the rest of his life, his life will belong to his wife, and he will use his life to atone for his sins.
After Yuan San left, Jiang Tangtang summoned Qin Chi again, intending to ask him about the situation of using seawater to obtain fresh water.
There was a streak of black dust on Qin Chi's face, and his clothes were torn in several places. It was obvious that he had rushed over after receiving the news.
Before Jiang Tangtang could ask, Qin Chi said with a beaming face, "I have lived up to your trust. After many attempts, I have finally found the best way to obtain fresh water from seawater."
Hearing this good news, Jiang Tangtang finally smiled.
“How much fresh water can I get each time?”
"I've made some improvements to the iron can. Every time I burn it, I can get almost half the water from this flower pot."
He pointed at the potted plants in Jiang Tangtang's room.
Jiang Tangtang estimated the flowerpot where she grew jasmine and guessed that it could hold about four or five liters of water at a time.
The water intake is not high.
But at least it is a way to get water.
"Have the blacksmith make more according to your improved drawings, and equip each ship with one in the future."
After Jiang Tangtang finished explaining everything, she dealt with some more urgent official business before getting up and planning to go look for Dr. Xue.
As soon as I reached the door, I saw Lu Shiyan getting off his horse.
"Why are you here?" Jiang Tangtang looked at the handsome man who was getting off the bus and was surprised to realize that since returning from Nan'an, the two of them had been busy with their own things.
Before they knew it, they hadn't seen each other for more than half a month.
Lu Shiyan walked up to Jiang Tangtang in two or three steps and asked, "Are you planning to go to Cangwu?"
Jiang Tangtang laughed and said, "How do you know? Could this be the legendary telepathy?"
She really planned to pick up Doctor Xue and go to Cangwu together to find out what kind of epidemic it was.
Only by figuring out what the disease is can we understand the route of transmission and better control the disease.
Lu Shiyan took Jiang Tangtang's hand and said, "Get on the horse, I'll go with you."
"What? Are you worried about me?" Jiang Tangtang followed his force and got on the horse together.
"You're my wife, who should I worry about if not you?" Lu Shiyan felt contented as he held the person he thought about day and night. It was a pity that now wasn't the right time to talk about love.
Jiang Tangtang turned around and gave him a sidelong glance. "Stop talking nonsense and tell me honestly what's going on."
Both of them are people who are more rational than emotional.
He came to see me, there must be something wrong.
Lu Shiyan was weighed down by something and stopped joking with her. "I suspect all of this is a trap designed by Qi Hongshen, and his target is Doctor Xue."
Jiang Tangtang had long felt that the epidemic was strange and suspected that the Xirong people had done it on purpose, but she did not expect that Doctor Xue was also involved.
She frowned slightly and quickly thought of the time when she came back from Nan'an and her subordinates reported that the Queen of Xirong was ill. Qi Hongshen tried many ways to ask Doctor Xue to treat his mother, but was rejected, but he never succeeded.
"You mean, he did this to lure out Divine Doctor Xue so he could capture him and take him to treat his mother?"
Lu Shiyan said, "Given his sinister and ruthless nature, it's entirely possible that he would resort to such means to achieve his goals."
He was only thankful now that Doctor Xue was only famous, and no one knew that the person who could truly bring people back to life was the little wife in his arms.
But Qi Hongshen is a man with deep scheming. It is not ruled out that he has discovered clues and has already hidden in the dark and laid a net, just waiting for them to break in.
This man cannot be kept alive! The Western Rong must be destroyed as soon as possible.
Jiang Tangtang was also angry!
Does he know how terrible an outbreak would be?
What he hated most was people who would do anything to achieve their goals, even at the cost of dragging the entire human race into the abyss.
Their country must be destroyed and they must be beaten to a pulp.
