Fall in love with the technology tree [Three Kingdoms]

In the first month of the fourth year of Yanxi, in the eastern suburbs of Luoyang.

A woman in ragged clothes was staggering on the road in the market. She exuded an unpleasant smell, which made people block her nose even in the severe winter. What was even more amazing was her face, which was sickly red, It was as if there were blood clots all over the skin.

"The epidemic, it is the epidemic!"

There was no one left in the originally bleak streets, and even the businesses hurriedly closed their doors, lest the epidemic would come in.

The woman looked dazed, her steps were unsteady, and she knelt down on the ground with a plop, revealing the swaddling baby in her arms.The same dirty toddler was jolted awake, making weak cries.

"Wow, wow."

Faint as the most delicate bird, yet heavy as the echo of a copper bell.

The sound aroused sympathy.The merchants peeked out through the cracks of the door and shouted, "Are you going to take care of the orphan? Thirty feet ahead is Ding's Women's Hospital."

The woman gritted her teeth, struggled to stand up, and continued to run forward.Her so-called running is not as fast as ordinary people walking.And the distance of a mere [-] meters seems to be the end of the world for a seriously ill patient.Finally, a white cloth banner with "D" written on it was close at hand. She seemed to let out her last breath, and knelt down on the ground again and for the last time.

"Son... my... son..."

In the season when the epidemic is gradually taking shape, women's medical halls are still open.A pungent smell mixed with wine, vinegar, and herbs emanated from the hall.Lime was spread all over the doorway.The female servant doctor, wearing a white coat, mask, hat and gloves, sweeps back and forth.In the backyard, several large pots for boiling water have never stopped working.Speaking of it, it has always been a tradition for Ding's women's medical hall to wear linen without dyeing it. The earliest name was to wear mourning for Ding's family. However, the three-year mourning period has expired, and the women's medical hall has not seen the clothes removed. The practice of wearing white has been preserved. When it came down, everyone was surprised.

Even, seeing two women wearing white masks and white aprons approaching, the seriously ill woman showed a look of anticipation on her face.She struggled to lift the swaddle, and she was relieved when the baby was picked up.Fortunately, the women's hospital did not reject the child because of her disease.

"Does the child have a name? Is there a date of birth? Where is the ancestral home?" A muffled question came from behind the white mask, too calm and indifferent.

The woman's consciousness has been blurred: "Wang...Wang Rui...Hongnong..."

She fell to the ground without a sound.One of the gynecologists squatted down to test her aorta, then shook her head.The plague took another life.

Since December last year, similar patients have appeared in the Yellow River Basin one after another.The patient's high fever persisted, and the upper body was congested due to a large number of broken capillaries.According to the internal records from Qiao County, this disease is called "epidemic hemorrhagic fever", which is a kind of severe infectious disease, which mostly occurs in young and middle-aged people. Children and the elderly who have no ability to take care of themselves will be cool with them.

As a result, many children from the Luoyang area either came to the women's clinic by themselves, or were left alone by their elders who were seriously ill.In short, the number of recent adoptions has shown a steady upward trend, and according to the estimated curve sent by Qiao County, the large-scale outbreak of the disease has just begun.

Epidemic hemorrhagic fever is a viral disease, and even Ah Sheng is helpless, even though there is still penicillin in the space.When it comes to prevention, she has many methods: isolation, sterilization, rodent control, and vaccines.But once infected, in addition to relying on the patient to survive by himself, it is comprehensive care such as physical cooling, blood transfusion, and dialysis.

Vaccines, blood transfusions, dialysis, the conditions are not mature.Great efforts have been made to sterilize and physically cool down the women's clinic.They used to specialize in miscarriage protection and delivery, but now they have to give lectures on the prevention and control of infectious diseases, teaching people to boil water before drinking it.

Patients were sent in and corpses were sent out every day in the isolation room set up in the middle of the field.But at any rate, the survival rate here can reach 30%, while it is less than 10% elsewhere.

It stands to reason that the Eastern Han government should send an imperial physician order to activate the first-level alert for epidemic prevention at this time, and then officially send medical support and relief.However, the emperor didn't care about this.Because it was also in the first month, the Nangong Jiade Hall caught fire.

The Jiade Palace is the palace for formulating etiquette!The fire in the Jiade Palace is a proper omen, and the heavens think that the emperor will lose his virtue and send such an omen.The big shots in the inner city are busy pleading guilty and praying to the heavens, throwing blame at each other, who has the time to care about the epidemic among ordinary people?Isn't epidemic disease very common in the Eastern Han Dynasty?

To this, Ah Sheng only had four words to say: Ma Dan!Retarded!

Out of anger, she issued an order to set up temporary branches of women's medical halls in Yanzhou and Qingzhou.People who had recovered from hemorrhagic fever were transferred from Luoyang and Qiao counties to the epidemic area.Their main mission is to spread the correct prevention and control methods, cremate and bury the bodies of the dead as much as possible, and adopt orphans whose parents died of the disease.

In the face of the great epidemic, the power of the Cao family was not enough, but Ah Sheng still tried his best.

At the beginning of February, a team consisting of women's doctors, orphans, and nursing homes set off from Luoyang Women's Hospital. They will first go to Qiao County, where they will drop off the orphans.After the final training and assessment, the gynecologists and guards will continue eastward to the epidemic area together with colleagues in Qiao County.

Asheng prepared a thick plan for these righteous men: they can't afford a house, they are oppressed by local tyrants, they can't understand the language, they get lost, they encounter wild animals, their own people are unfortunately infected, the people are ignorant and distrustful, and they are sick. The doctor is in trouble and so on and so on.She even provided the leading gynecologist with a dozen self-made dialysis devices made of space materials and amoxicillin that was about to expire. Although amoxicillin cannot cure hemorrhagic fever, it can treat children with diphtheria.Diphtheria, like hemorrhagic fever, is a winter infectious disease. Sporadic cases have been found in Qiao County, and there may be cases in Qingzhou and Yanzhou.

What makes people laugh and cry is that many of the plans that Ah Sheng racked his brains to come up with are useless.Once the Hao family found out that their servants were sick, they abandoned them, and the government didn't care much.Quarantine or something, although there are some extremely filial sons and virtuous women who cry and refuse to let go, most ordinary people are still pragmatic and cherish their lives.As for medical troubles, they were extinct at this time. Traditional Chinese medicine was still in its infancy. In the era when doctors relied on witch dances or primitive Taoist talismans to see a doctor, ordinary people were used to the low cure rate. How could they go out of medical troubles?

In the end, Ding's medical hall gained a firm foothold in Yan and Qing prefectures by directly saving hundreds of people and indirectly saving more people.In June, the high temperature of summer suppressed the arrogance of hemorrhagic fever virus.Four women's clinics in Luoyang, Qiaoxian, Yanzhou, and Qingzhou have also resumed normal operations, focusing on delivering babies to low-level people, or adopting orphans and sending them to the base camp in Qiaoxian County.

The only headache is that the number of orphans has seriously exceeded the standard after this epidemic that has spread across many states and counties.

According to the data gathered around, the number soared from the original one hundred to nearly seven hundred.Asheng had to build a temporary camp outside the grove to accommodate these orphans, big or small.When there are more orphans, food, clothing, training, and education all require more manpower and material resources, just like a chain reaction.If it weren't for the fact that many people who lost their homes in the plague, or those who were favored by Ding's medical hall, came to Qiao County as slaves voluntarily, otherwise Ah Sheng would have been in a hurry.

However, the problem has not been completely resolved here.

"There are more than three hundred adults, and more than six hundred children. Whose seven-year-old Mr. Lang has thousands of servants? See for yourself, the expenditure of the other courtyard last month was more than three times that of the old house!" Cao Song said. While doing the calculations, he settled the accounts for Ah Sheng, "Ruyi, it's not that father is stingy with money. We have few people who are in official positions now, so we're just sitting on the mountain..."

"Father, it's better to save money than to save money. How can you save money by saving money?"

"Uh..." Cao Song's beard was blown up, "Then you are open source!"

Ah Sheng happened to have a white porcelain covered glass bracelet made by the craftsman Ai Xuanji in his sleeve, so he took it off and put it on a table. "Father, please look, can such a thing be sold for money?"

Cao Song hissed, picked up the bracelet and looked at the light.

The glass is so pure that there is no trace of impurities, like frozen running water; the white porcelain is also smooth and flawless, like solidified cheese.The two blend with each other, like smoke and mist, as long as a human being with basic aesthetics can't refuse the beauty brought by this purity.

"It's the first time I've seen such clear colored glaze." He turned it upside down, and tapped it cautiously, "The white part isn't jade, could it be porcelain?"

"Father has a good eye, and he is right. If I sell colored glaze and white porcelain, can I afford to support my people?"

Cao Song stroked his beard and smiled. When he talked about being careful and making money, he immediately raised his IQ: "If everyone has this kind of appearance, it is naturally possible. Treasures are rare. If you can have two or three pieces every year, it is enough for you to spend money." It’s sold.” Hunger marketing, upper-level circulation, can sell at a high price.

Ah Sheng clapped his hands: "That's what I mean, secretly. Don't let people know that it was made by my family, just say it is imported from overseas. I heard that the relatives of the five princes were arrogant and extravagant, and there was a precedent of robbing other people's property. Since we are filial , you should be careful to avoid their sharpness. Everyone is innocent, but pregnant is guilty, and I don’t need to say more, my father knows it.”

Cao Song scolded with a smile: "You are nagging more and more. Lobbying my father is like a doorman. I am not boasting. When it comes to gathering wealth, I am very safe. We also sell seven or eight properties in our family. How can we spread our reputation? Even your mother doesn't know there is a merchant at home."

"That's fine. On the tenth day, I will hand over the first...uh...treasure of this year to my father. Please return the bracelet to me."

Cao Song reluctantly touched the smooth and cool white porcelain, and handed it back to A Sheng.It's a pity that such good porcelain can only be regarded as a luxury with a price but no market for decades.He wanted to get Mrs. Zhang a white porcelain vessel or glazed earrings, but they were not available right now.

Ah Sheng hummed a ditty and ran out.Craftsman Ai must like the low-volume boutique production.Oops, remember to give this great hero a red envelope.She only knows the theory of many problems, and she can realize them one by one, all thanks to the sweat and trial and error of the craftsmen headed by Jiang Ai.She was so happy when she thought that there were more than a dozen families of artisans among the people who came from Yan and Qing.
