Yang and Shuxiao watched them leave, then turned to Man Bao and said, "I'll ask Wan Tian to contact each family. None of the cattle your fourth brother and the others brought back have been incorporated into the army. It's quite easy to kill them, and this is Xiazhou."

It is said that there is no shortage of cattle in Xiazhou, but it is true that there is no shortage of cattle.

One-third of Xiazhou's territory is nomadic, and there are also horse farms owned by the imperial court and various families, so the restrictions on cattle farming are not as strict as in Guan Nei.

However, people inside the city can't get out at this time, and people outside the city are trying their best to avoid the city. There is not a shortage of food and other things.

After all, the autumn harvest was over when the incident happened. Not only did each family have grain in stock, but the government office also had a lot of tax grain. The current rise in grain prices is largely due to people's panic and not knowing when the epidemic will end.

But vegetables and meat are really lacking.

So even though Zhou Lang had a lot of cattle, Xiazhou City could still afford it. Not to mention the ordinary people in the city, even the wealthy families could take a lot of it.

He also asked Wanda to give a pricing suggestion. Don't kill them all at once. Kill one head a day, or kill one head every other day. Try to raise the price as high as possible.

Those who can afford to eat meat at this time of year are basically wealthy people and don’t care about the tens of pence it costs.

Haven’t you noticed that food prices have increased?

This is only two months after the autumn harvest ended.

Yang Heshu went in to take a look at Mr. Cui and then left. He still had many things to do.

Bai Shan and Bai Erlang began to take care of the affairs in the courtyard. Through managing this courtyard, he knew the current cloth inventory in Xiazhou City and the general situation of each cloth village;

Know the current food price and general reserve situation in Xiazhou City;

I also learned how Yang Heshu battled wits and courage with the rich and ordinary people in Xiazhou.

The existence of these three courtyards and the six best doctors in Xiazhou is a setback of Yang Heshu, and the medical shed located in the city, which takes in most of the patients, is a setback of the local gentry in Xiazhou.

Through these account books, Bai Shan learned about this by arranging the food, clothing, housing, and medical care for the patients in the courtyard and the slaves bit by bit.

Bai Erlang had just arranged the dishes for today's meal in the east courtyard. When he turned back and saw Bai Shan still flipping through the thick roster, he said with a headache: "What are you looking at this for?"

"Take a look at who from Xiazhou City lives in this courtyard, and also look at who lived in this courtyard in the past. Are they dead now or have they escaped alive?"

Bai Erlang felt eerie when he heard this, and asked: "What are you looking at this for?"

Bai Shandao: "Yesterday someone in the south of the city rushed to the border, didn't you follow him to see it?"

"Yes, weren't they suppressed?" Bai Erlang was confused. "The people who passed the test are all ordinary people. What does it have to do with the people living in this courtyard?"

Bai Shan shook his head, "I'm a little confused."

"where?"

Bai Shandao said: "Now there is food in Xiazhou City, and although there is little medicine, the patients in the medical sheds can still be treated. In the city, no matter how poor people are who get smallpox, even the beggars on the street, as long as they carry their

People with acne can stay in the medical shack, why do they have to go through the quarantine?"

"You also said there's not enough medicine..."

"It's not enough, but it's still there, isn't it?" Bai Shan said: "It's not necessarily the case after leaving the city. Medicines outside the city have to be bought with money. Do they have enough money? Will doctors outside the city treat them? Xiazhou City

Will the city outside let them in?"

"Even if they are ordinary people and not very smart, they are not stupid in this kind of thing. What's more, everyone loves their hometown, especially those who don't have the capital to leave their hometown. They will not leave unless they have to.

Bai Shan: "So why do they want to pass the test?"

"That is……"

"Someone instigated it, but I think it's more like someone assigned it," Bai Shan said: "Leaving the city means more harm than good to ordinary people, but not to some people. They have enough money to leave Xiazhou City.

, what kind of medicinal materials and doctors can’t find it?”

Bai Erlang's face darkened and he said angrily: "The six best doctors have been given to them, what else are they dissatisfied with?"

"Because there are too many patients and too many people have died," Bai Shan opened the booklet and directly clicked on the names on the page: "There is no statistics yet, but I took a quick look and found that just this courtyard has been closed since then.

From the back of the city to now, twenty-eight people have died. This is still the No. 1 hospital, and the symptoms were relatively mild when they were sent to the hospital. The other two hospitals may be more serious."

Bai Shan sighed and said, "Smallpox is a disease that can wipe out entire tribes."

So don't blame them for being panicked.

But outside the city of Xiazhou are tens of millions of people of the Jin Dynasty. Once smallpox flows southward into the capital, or even to Jiangnan, southwest and other places, it will be hell on earth.

Even for this reason, they couldn't let anyone out.

Even patients in villages outside the city have to start treating them.

Bai Shan exhaled, raised his head and said to Bai Erlang: "Now we are taking over the other courtyard, you should be careful, don't let anyone set you up."

Bai Erlang was horrified, "Do they want to let me catch smallpox like they did to the school sister-in-law?"

Bai Shan threatened him, "It may not be impossible."

Bai Erlang's face turned pale and he immediately said: "I will definitely not run around, touch or eat anything..."

He said with a grimace: "Isn't this trip too difficult?"

Bai Shan said: "What's difficult for us? It's difficult to fill the treasure. There are too few doctors, and Xiazhou can't handle the turnover at all. Judging from what we saw when we went to the medical shed yesterday, it's Dr. Lu and the others who brought the doctor

Even the help that comes is not enough."

This time on a business trip, Manbao and the others were accompanied by an imperial physician and two medical assistants.

Because it was very dangerous, Tai Hospital avoided the new medical assistants this year and chose more experienced ones. They even specially selected six who were already married and had children...

Even though they are just medical assistants at the Taipei Hospital, their skills are just as good as those of private doctors, and they can also work on their own.

Dr. Lu listened to the medical advice of Dr. Jin and Dr. Hua this morning. Now he has led others to prescribe and see doctors. Occasionally, Dr. Jin and Dr. Hua will come to him to discuss some medical conditions.

Bai Shan pressed down the book and calculated in his mind, and immediately said: "It is better to write a letter back, or recruit some more doctors from nearby prefectures and counties, or dispatch them from the capital. In short, Xiazhou still needs doctors."

Bai Erlang, who was from Taiyuan Hospital, was quite familiar with him. He calculated and said, "Can't anyone be transferred from Taiyuan Hospital?"

"What do you think about transferring people from the Imperial Medical Office?"

Bai Erlang was shocked, "Isn't this good? Their medical skills are not up to par."

Bai Shan said: "They are not much different from the doctors in the medical shed. Moreover, they can also help, such as taking injections, applying medicine, dealing with acne, etc...."

Bai Erlang looked at him in surprise and doubted: "Are you Bai Shan?"

Bai Shan glanced at him, "Have you read too many ghost novels recently? What are you thinking about? Who am I if I'm not Bai Shan?"

"Then why did you mention such a thing?" Bai Erlang said: "Smallpox is very dangerous. They are still so young. It will kill people, right?"

Is it just because he knew there was a high probability that no one would die that he made this suggestion?

Although the medicine in Man Bao's hand is only 89% effective in preventing the epidemic, it is enough. He believes that as long as he pays enough attention, he can fill the remaining 11%. It just costs more money and energy.
