Liu Chuanhai gritted his teeth and obviously remembered some not-so-good past events. Zhao Zhili, Sun Wei and Du Kangyong, looked bad, and their past was obviously not so happy.

Xiao Ruxun's Northern Expedition killed many people and gave many people the opportunity to turn things around.

Most of the current officials stand out in the land reform and become local grassroots officials. Many of them are ordinary families or even poor families. The deepest memories of their childhood are bullying and hunger.

The doctor's words came directly to their hearts.

Now they are turning over, and they have the power to eat and wear, but dream about the past at midnight, and they feel sad and cry often.

For thousands of years, precious medicinal materials and supplements have never been to ordinary people. When they get sick, they either grit their teeth and hold them hard, or make some visible things and boil them into water to drink them. It can kill them even if a small cold can cause death. Many people have never received any medical treatment from birth to death.

That's why longevity is so pursuing, and there are even sayings of joy and demise.

There are clinics and doctors, but for most poor families in the country, it is out of reach. Medical services do not belong to them, and they can only wait for death.

Prosperity, the people suffer, the people suffer, the people suffer.

Xiao Ruxun wrote more than 100 of these eight words in his own handwriting, and asked people to frame them and hang them at the main entrance of each official office inside and outside the court. Every official would see this word before going to work every day, and see these eight words that tell the rise and fall of the ages and the sorrow and helplessness of the people.

Thinking of the sadness, Liu Chuanhai couldn't help but shed a few lines of tears, but hurriedly wiped it clean and said, "Let's go down and take a look first. After I fully understand the specific situation, I will report to Your Majesty for a solution. Your Majesty said, one is a locust plague, and the other is an insect plague. If it is not eradicated, there will be no peace in the Qin Dynasty."

Several officials nodded, and a sense of mission arose.

As soon as Liu Chuanhai arrived, he immediately brought the order "not to touch the water body with his body" to the local government and spread it by the officials, telling them that once there are people suffering from big belly disease in the local area, the local officials should never touch any water body. Drinking water must boil it, and everything else must be waited for instructions from the court.

Everything can be chaotic, and the government and the army cannot be chaotic. The local government must first protect the government and the army, so that it can be implemented. Once the government and the army are chaotic, it will become extremely difficult to implement.

After implementing this idea, Dangtu County immediately entered a state of emergency. Liu Chuanhai brought the emperor's orders and military mobilization talismans that allowed the emperor to mobilize less than 1,000 troops to assist in handling errands. He mobilized 300 regular troops to enter Dangtu County and escorted them all the way to Xiangyang Village in Shiqiao Township.

After arriving in Xiangyang Village, a group of people first visited every household in the village and saw patients with big belly from several households. These people had been sent by Zhao Zhili to bring medicinal materials to treat them. They began to recover slowly, and their abdominal distension was significantly reduced. When they saw Zhao Zhili, they knelt down and kowtowed with great gratitude.

Zhao Zhili hurriedly helped them up and asked them if they had the habit of drinking raw water and playing in the water. They said they both had them.

Several officials looked at Liu Chuanhai, and Liu Chuanhai immediately ordered the followers to walk around the village with baskets for fishing things, and led by farmers in the village to the farmland and inspect the riverside.

"It's these places. Go down the net and take care of it. Be careful not to touch the water body. You guys have caught him and never let him fall."

Liu Chuanhai directed several officials to lay the nets and fish snails on the edge of the river and in the rice fields. At the same time, he set up a stove next to him to start boiling water. When the water boiled, the officials also fished out a large number of snails.

"There are so many!"

Du Kangyong and others' expressions changed drastically.

However, the president of Xiangyang Village Farmers Association said that there are many of these things, and there are many rivers in the rice fields. When there is not enough food, the people in the village will pick up these things and cook them.

Liu Chuanhai immediately threw the snails into boiling water and cooked them. He took a lot of them and cooked them seven or eight pots.

"Your Majesty's order says that in order to find the kind of snails that can spread poisonous insects, you must collect as many of these snails as possible, and then put them in boiling water for half an hour, and all of them will be cooked to death. The poisonous insects are not resistant to high temperatures and will all be cooked to death."

Du Kangyong asked again: "What should I do if I find that kind of snail? What should I do if I have so many snails?"

"Your Majesty said that only those kind of snails can make poisonous insects grow, so as long as all the snails are eliminated, the poisonous insects will naturally not survive and will all die. This way, the disease can be stopped."

Liu Chuanhai replied.

"But as you said, there are such screws in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. How much should it be? It affects more than tens of millions of people? What should we do? There is only one Xiangyang village at present, but if we find that more villages have such patients, what should we do?"

Du Kangyong was very conscious of crisis. He suddenly thought that when he was carrying out the land reform operation, he had seen patients with the same big belly in several villages.

That is several different places in southern Zhili, Zhejiang and Fujian...

He realized the seriousness of the problem.

"Your Majesty has known it a long time ago. Otherwise, how could you put the locust plague and insect plague together? Your Majesty has been prepared to deal with this matter for a long time. Once the appearance of the snail is determined, your Majesty will immediately order all prefectures, counties and townships along the Yangtze River to mobilize immediately to destroy snails in groups."

"Cluster killing snails?"

Du Kangyong's expression changed drastically: "That's not a trivial matter, it takes a lot of time to prepare for the organization of many people."

"So we will conduct investigations in many places to find out where the big belly disease is currently affected and how large it is, and then report to His Majesty for preparation. After the court has given a feasible strategy, it is estimated that you local officials will also ask you local officials to come to Beijing for a meeting to discuss this issue in detail."

Liu Chuanhai revealed the specific news to Du Kangyong. Du Kangyong thought for a while and said that he knew everything.

"I understand. Then everything will depend on Doctor Liu. We will do our best to support you."

Du Kangyong expressed his support for Liu Chuanhai. Liu Chuanhai expressed his gratitude and made his own request to Zhao Zhili.

"Zhao County Magistrate, from now on, Dangtu County is an insect-hit area. We need to start the publicity of insect-hit prevention immediately and inform the local people of all known methods, and every household must know it.

They told them from door to door that when they encounter patients with big belly disease, they should register and register. The county will arrange medicinal materials and doctors to treat them. If the medicinal materials are not enough, they will need to provide more support to the prefect Sun and Du Futai. If there is any gap, they should report to the central court as early as possible to let Your Majesty know that Your Majesty will allocate funds and medicinal materials as appropriate."
