I pretend to be a fairy in ancient times
Chapter 49
Yan Yun drove to Zhao's house in Chen Xing's carriage, without taking anyone with him. This has happened several times. After Yan Yun got off the carriage, he naturally greeted Lady Xiao and Jiang Xu Said, "Auntie is good, Xu'er is helping Master with work again, where is your Master?"
When Yan Yun came to visit at home twice at the beginning, Mrs. Xiao was afraid of his status as a national teacher, and she was so frightened that she trembled when she spoke. Now that she has seen him a lot, she can still smile kindly at Yan Yun, which can be regarded as responding to his greetings.
Mrs. Xiao is actually only four or five years older than Yan Yunkai. Although Yan Yunkai called her aunt according to Zhao Ji's seniority, Mrs. Xiao didn't dare to treat him as a junior. After saying hello, she went to her room to avoid him. went.
Jiang Xu is not afraid of Yan Yunkai. She and Zhao Ji have been to many princes and nobles' homes. Those people are very arrogant. Although they are very polite to the master, they don't care too much about her little girl who is a follower.But Yan Yunkai has a good temper and always talks to her in a pleasant manner, so Jiang Xu is not afraid at all.
Seeing Yan Yunkai, Jiang Xu smiled and said to him, "Uncle Yan, Master is hiding to read picture novels again. You can definitely find him in his study if you go to his study."
Yan Yunkai nodded to Jiang Xu, and went straight to Zhao Ji's study room, the door was ajar, Yan Yunkai didn't knock on the door, pushed open the door and walked in quietly, Zhao Ji was leaning against the window to read a book.
Today Zhao Ji was wearing a bamboo green gown, and his jet-black hair was tied with a ribbon of the same color. Yan Yunkai knew that Zhao Ji was only reading novels and essays to pass the time, but he naturally thought of celebrities in his mind.
Yan Yunkai approached quietly, seeing Zhao Ji turn another page of the book, he obviously didn't notice him approaching.
Zhao Ji performed three minor operations in a row today. The patients were all from official families, and they were unwilling to come to the Zhao family for medical treatment.
Usually when encountering this kind of patients who insisted on asking him to come to treat them, Zhao Ji would charge a very high price, the starting price was 100 taels of silver.If the patient is willing to come to see a doctor, Zhao Ji's fee will be much cheaper, depending on the seriousness of the condition, the asking price ranges from 50 taels to [-] taels.
Because single alcohol is the same, Yanyun’s official price is five taels of silver per catty, and a lot of grain is needed to brew it.
Therefore, Zhao Ji's minimum treatment fee of ten taels of silver is not a price that ordinary people can afford. Currently, Zhao Ji is taking the high-end route.
Zhao Ji knows that it is impossible to help all the sick people with his own strength. What he should do is to change people's health conditions and make contributions to the overall medical technology.
On both points, he has made his own efforts, the first is to improve the hygiene situation.Zhao Ji and Yanyun opened a joint venture to build a public bathhouse in the southeast, northwest, and four directions of Jian'an City, providing hot showers. In order to save water resources, a small money can take half a quarter of an hour in a hot bath.
The bathhouse opened last month and is now on track.This is really lucky, because the men Yan Yunkai brought to Jersey City happened to find coal in the mountain behind a pottery workshop in Ganzhou.
Originally, casting boilers was not easy, Yan Yunkai only planned to open a shower house in Jian'an City.After having coal, Zhao Ji proposed to use coal to make steel. The refined steel has few impurities and is of good quality, which greatly reduces the difficulty of casting boilers.In addition to getting people to forge weapons for the army, Yan Yun ordered people to make four boilers with a wave of his hand.
Although the bathhouse basically can't make any money, Yan Yunkai has better steel and can sell charcoal, so it's not short of that money.
Yan Yunkai also fully supported Zhao Ji's proposal to build bathhouses in every large city.
Yan Yunkai did not publicize the building of the bathhouse as a political achievement, but whenever he walked through the downtown area and smelled the fresh air several times, he felt very happy.
In addition to not being fond of bathing, the sewers in Jian'an City are not bad, but the environment in Xicheng District, where the poor live, is terrible, and people have the habit of defecating anywhere.
Zhao Ji hired people to collect manure in Xicheng District. Thirty catties of manure was paid a lot of money, and every day he collected it and pulled it to the village opened by Yan Yun as fertilizer.
Zhao Ji didn't have to personally ask these matters, and asked Yan Yunkai to choose a subordinate who was injured and could no longer be a spy to be his shopkeeper, responsible for managing the stall.
At first, some people laughed at the manure collectors, but soon there were competitors in this business, because manure is dirty, but manure can make a good harvest of food, it is a good thing.
Under such circumstances, the entire Xicheng District has become much cleaner. No one wants to take money outside. They just find someone to collect it and accumulate it so that they can be sold for money.
In addition to improving environmental sanitation, Zhao Ji also took out the Chinese patent medicines in the hospital for Biao Xia to study.Although Zhao Ji doesn't understand traditional Chinese medicine, these Chinese patent medicines are tried and tested prescriptions of later generations. If they can be recovered, they may be able to promote the progress of medical treatment in this era.
These Chinese patent medicines all have lists of ingredients. To restore them, you only need to determine the dose. In fact, it is very easy. In this era of no patent protection, it is not too psychologically burdensome to use.
In two months, many things have changed quietly.Take Zhao Ji's reading of novels as an example. At the beginning, he struggled to read traditional Chinese characters, and had to rely on the memory of his original body. Now he no longer has this trouble.
The novel that Zhao Ji read today is a love story, and it is rare to have a female protagonist.If it is modern, this kind of novel will definitely be classified as a romance novel, Zhao Ji will not read it, but in this era when story books are scarce, this novel full of sadness and abuse is quite good .
Just when Zhao Ji was fascinated, a hand stretched out from behind and snatched the book from him.But Zhao Ji didn't panic at all, because of course he recognized that it was Yan Yunkai's hand.
Zhao Ji turned around with a smile, "Childish."
Yan Yunkai had already seen the title of the book in his hand - "Love and War".
Disgusted, "Tao Yaoyao is also a lady of everyone, how could she come up with such a vulgar name."
Yan Yun was happy to know that Tao Yaoyao admired Zhao Ji, so of course he would not appreciate him in front of Zhao Ji.
Zhao Ji didn't refute, turned around and squinted his peach blossom eyes and said to Yan Yunkai, "No matter what the name is, I think her story is really well written and very emotional. She will definitely make a lot of money, and she must print only [-] copies." If it’s not enough to sell, at least one hundred thousand copies are required, so you ask people to prepare more paper.”
Shi Mo had just been found from Xichuan, and Tao Yaoyao's novel had just been written. Everything was so coincidental, so the first book printed with graphite was Tao Yaoyao's love novel "Love".
After Tao Yaoyao's novel was finished, she sent it to Zhao Ji in every possible way. Her purpose was of course to hope that Zhao Ji could see the affection hidden between the lines. Unfortunately, she overestimated Zhao Ji's literary level. These affections are hidden too deeply and obscurely, so that Zhao Ji didn't discover anything, only thought that the story of the novel was good-looking and would definitely sell well.
After Yan Yunkai took away the novel from Zhao Ji's hand, he secretly observed Zhao Ji's expression and found that he ignored the book.
After Zhao Ji finished preparing the paper, he took Yan Yunkai's hand, pulled him to the window, pointed to the backyard and said, "Look at those chrysanthemums, my grandma bought them for ten taels of silver. She is still reluctant to take them." I came to the front yard, and said that there were many people in the front yard, and I was afraid that someone would accidentally damage her precious flowers, and said that I would wait until the Double Ninth Festival came, so I asked my cousin to come to the house and show them to them. I Let you see in advance, how is it, it looks good."
The National Teacher's Mansion is full of seasonal flowers. It is said that there are many pots of flowers worth ten taels of silver, and there are also flowers in a pot of hundreds of taels of silver. It is a pity that the host does not like to visit the garden, and most of these flowers are wasted.
There is no way to waste it, the garden of the dignified National Teacher's Mansion can't be left barren.
Yan Yunkai looked along Zhao Ji's fingers, besides the ordinary yellow/chrysanthemums, there were two pots of pink chrysanthemums and one pot of purple chrysanthemums, placed in a pile, competing for beauty is indeed beautiful.
Yan Yunjing looked at Zhao Ji's shoulders for a while, "Good-looking is good-looking, but people are better than Hua Jiao, and with Bao'er by my side, I can't bear to look at these rouge vulgar fans." After finishing speaking, she smiled at Zhao Ji .
Zhao Ji was also amused by him, but he pushed Yan Yun away and said, "I came to the house specially, just to say a few sweet words that are out of tune."
Yan Yunkai came to see Zhao Ji today, of course he had a serious business to do, so when Zhao Ji asked him, he said, "Earlier you said you could use lime to refine something called cement, and my craftsmen fired it out. It can be used to build roads, and it will condense in two days, and the carriage will carry the stones on the road and it will not be crushed."
Zhao Ji was really happy this time. Although he didn't deliberately change the world, the world changed bit by bit because of his appearance.
Flush toilets became available in every household among the upper class, and showers were promoted.
There is also coal, which the aristocrats do not like to use, but the common people like it very much. It is not expensive and it is especially good for cooking.
Now that there is cement, the world will definitely undergo earth-shaking changes. As the saying goes, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads.
Zhao Ji didn't know what the world would be like in the end, but every time he heard the changes, he couldn't help but feel happy from the bottom of his heart, and without waiting for Yan Yunkai to say anything, Zhao Ji directly pulled Looking at Yan Yunkai, he said, "Where is the cement road that has been repaired, take me to see it quickly."
Yan Yunkai looked at Zhao Ji's sparkling eyes and nodded, "Then let's go."
When the toilet was made, Zhao Ji also had this expression, it was so funny, no matter how many times he watched it, Yan Yunkai would never get tired of it.
