Daqin: The poorest prime minister, the first emperor begged me to corrupt

"Here."

Zhao Gao agreed with his hands, and led the guards downstairs.

But after a while, Zhao Gao and the imperial guards escorted a dozen Hu merchants back, among them was a disheveled Hu Ji.

All eyes were on that orchid, and they looked at her curiously and carefully.

His state was indeed as Qin Mo said, a bit weird, his face was flushed and he was excited, his eyes were scattered and blurred, it looked like a relapse of a mental illness.

That is the 'crazy' in the mouth of the princes and princesses!
However, people who are insane are usually irrational, with a knife resting on their necks, they are still insane.

But this orchid is sensible, she probably knew that she was naked on the street, which violated the etiquette of Daqin, and after being taken upstairs, she trembled all over, showing a state of fear.

The leader, Old Hu Shang, took the lead and prostrated himself on the ground, saluting Yingzheng who was seated at the top, and she also prostrated and saluted: "Greetings, Great Qin nobleman~!"

Ying Zheng and Qin Mo looked at each other, then refused to let them get up, and asked coldly, "Why are you naked in the downtown?"

"Just... just trying to attract buyers... to buy our spices..."

The leader, the old Hu merchant, replied in fear.

Ying Zheng frowned thickly, and when he spoke in a neutral voice, he was even more hostile: "So, you did it on purpose to ruin my Daqin atmosphere~!"

The old Hu Shang was so frightened that he hurriedly explained: "No, it was definitely not on purpose...Ai Li is used to burning intoxicating flowers to smell and smell when dancing, and she can dance more unrestrained and enchanting dances... Maybe this time I smelled too much, I couldn’t control myself, so I lost myself... I didn’t mean to be naked on purpose!"

Ying Zheng froze for a moment, then suddenly nodded.

When the army fought in South Vietnam last year, there were often greedy soldiers who accidentally ingested local poisonous mushrooms and became hallucinogenic and insane. He had seen it before.

But when Ying Zheng was stunned, he found that Qin Mo beside him suddenly became serious, got up in a vicious manner, picked up the old Hu merchant, and asked, "Where is the intoxicating flower?"

The old Hu merchant was shocked, pointed at Zhao Gao and stammered: "Our spices... have been confiscated by..., and the drunken flowers are among them..."

Qin Mo turned his head to look at Zhao Gao, his eyes were as sharp as a knife.

Seeing his terrifying appearance, Zhao Gao felt his scalp tingle immediately, he hurried to the stairs, waved to the downstairs and said, "Bring up all the confiscated belongings."

"Here."

There was a shout from downstairs, and then a dozen or so guards, carrying large and small linen bags, came upstairs quickly.

Qin Mo threw the old Hu merchant over, and said coldly, "Find me the drunken flower."

Trembling, the old Hu merchant rummaged through the large and small linen bags, and finally found a leather bag the size of a palm, and presented it to Qin Mo with both hands, saying, "My lord, here... are the dried petals of the intoxicating flower." , and some flower seeds."

Qin Mo frowned and said coldly: "There are only so many?"

The old Hu merchant nodded hastily: "This flower is not a spice, and it is very poisonous and can cause death. My caravan does not sell it... It is brought by Ellie herself, and it is only used for dancing."

Suspicious, Qin Mo opened the knot of the leather bag and looked at the dried petals inside.

Finally, I picked up some dried petals with chopsticks and watched carefully. …

Seeing how cautious he was, the people upstairs couldn't help stretching their necks and widening their eyes, looking at the dull dried petals.

But all can't see why!

"Qin Xiang, according to what this Hu merchant said, this flower is just as poisonous as the Nanyue flower mushroom, and there is nothing unusual about it. Why are you so concerned?"

Old Fan Zeng couldn't help being curious, and asked aloud.

He stayed longer in South Vietnam with his uncle and nephew Xiang, and even often ate flower mushrooms, which are regarded as a delicacy by local Vietnamese people. As long as they are cooked properly to remove the toxicity, they are still very good to eat...

Qin Mo shook his head, and explained solemnly: "I heard that there is a strange flower outside the territory. The juice secreted by its flower buds can cause people to hallucinate, making people feel drunk and happy, but after a long time, it will make people addicted, like Like an alcoholic who is addicted to alcohol, his heart will itch if he does not drink for a day."

"However, that strange flower's addiction is a hundred times worse than alcohol addiction. People who are addicted cannot completely quit. Once the addiction comes up and cannot be relieved, they will suffer like hell. The proud man like steel will also become You will be haggard, humble like a wild dog, and even lose your humanity."

"As long as you can get rid of his addiction, let him kill his father, mother, wife and son, I'm afraid it's okay..."

Old Fan Zeng and everyone upstairs gasped when they heard this, and felt a chill run down their spines.

Fusu was even more startled and said, "There are such monster flowers in the world?"

choke-

Ying Zheng pulled out his sword sharply, glared at the orchid and said, "Bold temptress, dare to bring evil demon flowers into my Daqin, damn it~!"

The orchid's medicinal strength may have passed, and she was frightened by Ying Zheng's shock, and she burst into tears, crying and explaining in unskilled words: "No, the drunken flower is not a demon flower...he said The demon flower is the flower of happiness, it is very precious, only the nobles are qualified to use it..."

Qin Mo stopped the furious Ying Zheng, and explained: "Your Majesty, this flower is indeed not a demon flower, so there is no need to be harsh."

When he was young in his hometown, it was not that he had never seen demon flowers, or poppies.

The old people call poppy A Fu Rong because of its fat and coquettish petals, which resemble hibiscus flowers.

The dried petals brought by the orchid are slender, resembling morning glory, obviously not poppies!
Moreover, poppies are not poisonous enough to directly kill people, otherwise, how could future generations be used as meat spices by many unscrupulous restaurants...

Ying Zheng was stunned: "Isn't it a demon flower?"

Qin Mo shook his head: "It's not a demon flower!"

Ying Zheng put his sword back into its sheath, and said in a deep voice: "Since Ai Qing knew that evil demon flower, she drew a picture when she turned around, and ordered the Longxi Pass to strictly investigate, and not a single plant can enter my Daqin."

"Here."

Qin Mo agreed with his hand.

Seeing that he and Ying Zheng were not shouting and shouting, Hu Ji and Hu merchants couldn't help lying on the ground limply as if they had been pardoned.

Qin Mo took the small leather bag, walked up to the orchid, and asked: "The original name of this flower, shouldn't it be called Zuixin flower?"

Hu Ji showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and replied with a forced smile: "Yes, nobleman, I chose the name Zuixinhua according to its utility... because I heard that the Great Qin Dynasty has been using a lot of money to buy all kinds of flowers. It is a rare seed, so I gave it a nice name and wanted to sell it to the Great Qin court.”…

Qin Mo suddenly nodded, took out a handful of gold coins from his purse and said, "Your information is correct, the Great Qin court has indeed been seeking to purchase all kinds of rare seeds, tell me what is the original name of this flower? What is its specific effect?"

Hu Ji looked at the golden coin with a forced smile on her face, and suddenly became sincere and brilliant, saying: "It is called... Manna in my hometown."

Qin Mo frowned slightly: "Manna?"

Hu Ji immediately changed into another awkward language and said: "Mandala."

Qin Mo raised his eyebrows: "Mandala?"

Hu Ji nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, Datura... Its seeds, fruits, leaves, and flowers are all highly toxic. A small amount of use can cause hallucinations, but it can also cause paralysis and loss of pain. Then the whole body is paralyzed and convulsed and dies."

Qin Mo handed her the gold coin: "This is the reward you deserve."

Hu Ji was overjoyed, and Hu merchants were also envious.

But after Qin Mo paid the reward, he turned his head to the guards and said, "Give them to the guards, they will ruin the atmosphere of our Great Qin, and they should be whipped as an example to others~!"

"Here."

The guards responded in unison.

The orchids and the Hu merchants were dumbfounded for a moment, then bowed their heads sincerely, obediently carried their spices, and left with the guards downstairs.

"Qin Xiang, are these foreign poisonous flower seeds worth buying with a lot of money?"

Old Fan Zeng watched the group leave and asked strangely.

Qin Mo nodded with a smile: "Just now that Hu Ji said that using a small amount of this poisonous flower can make people paralyzed and lose the sense of pain."

"If it really has this effect, it might be useful when dealing with trauma."

"For example, when suturing a wound or gouging out an arrow sore, you can use this poisonous flower to relieve the pain first, so that people will suffer less pain and receive the treatment quietly, so as to avoid the unbearable pain, causing the blood to collapse and die."

"So I thought, maybe Xia Wuqiu, Lu Sheng and others can study it so that it can be safely used as medicine. This is the blessing of the soldiers of the Great Qin Dynasty, and the blessing of the people of the Great Qin Dynasty!"

Old Fan Zeng was dumbfounded when he heard this, sighed for a while, and said: "Master Qin is pedantic about heaven and man, and has fantastic ideas. It's really amazing. I'm not as good as this old man."

As he spoke, he clasped his hands together and bowed to the end, but he was convinced.

Qin Mo bowed his hands humbly. His whimsical idea is a hammer. Datura has always been the main medicine for Mafeisan and Mongolian sweat medicine since it was introduced to China, and it is the first choice for clinical anesthesia in later generations.

The importance of this thing to the clinical development of surgery is simply an inexhaustible fetish.

If he didn't even know these things, he would have lived two lifetimes in vain!

Ying Zheng saw that old Fan Zeng bowed his head to Qin Mo, but he said hesitantly: "I am the Prime Minister of Qin, how could you, a man who specializes in power and strategy, be inferior to..., that's right!"

Old Fan Zeng: "..."

I know you look down on me, but there's no need to lose face like this, right?
Then again...you look down on me, I still don't work for you...

Old Fan Zeng picked up his crutches and returned to Fusu's side bitterly. This is the benevolent monarch we believe can build a future forever!
Fusu looked at Ying Zheng, then at old Fan Zeng, and could only look at Qin Mo with a wry smile for help.

Qin Mo smiled, and suddenly said to Ying Zheng: "By the way, seeing this mandala flower, I suddenly remembered that His Majesty hadn't given a reply to the construction of the Daqin medical system reported a few days ago, but there is something wrong with it." ?"…

When Ying Zheng heard the words, he was indeed distracted, shook his head and said, "I have read the memorial, and the ministers have discussed it in detail, there is nothing wrong with it."

"It's just that the matter of the academy has just been rolled out, and the construction of roads and water conservancy has been going on. If the government-run medical center is opened again, the treasury may not be able to support it."

"Let's wait a little longer. Now that the business tax is increasing rapidly every day, it will not take a few years before the government-run medical center can be implemented..."

Qin Mo had expected this a long time ago, and immediately raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the treasury has no money, but I have it here."

"Nowadays, the government-run academy is fully taken over by the imperial court. I no longer need to advance money and food in the name of His Majesty, but the property under my name is still as usual, earning a lot of money for my minister."

"Even because of the cooperation with the Shaofu, I have made more money than before, especially the Royal Bank, the speed of making money is almost like stealing money..."

"Unlike Your Majesty, I have a huge clan to support. There are only a few people in my family. Even if I squander every day, it won't cost me a penny. It's better to invest in opening a government-run medical center!"

Ying Zheng gritted his teeth when he heard this, but for a moment he didn't know how to answer.

Qin Mo could predict his answer, and he had already anticipated Qin Mo's thoughts. This was the reason why he kept suppressing the memorial and not giving Qin Mo a reply.

He knew very well that as long as he gave Qin Mo an approval, no matter whether there was money or grain allocated, Qin Mo would always find ways to get things done.

Moreover, in the end, it will probably be done so well that it is beyond imagination!

Just like Qin Mo’s memorabilia on the establishment of the school, he just gave a random reply, and did not allocate one and a half taels of money, but when he looked back, the school was almost on the right track, and the court had to squeeze out its energy Go with Qianliang to take over...

The same is true for the medical clinic now. Ying Zheng and the ministers of the central government all believe from the bottom of their hearts that this is a good thing and must be done.

However, Qin Mo must not be allowed to take the lead!

Otherwise, the imperial court will probably be cornered in the end and have to give up the original rhythm again to catch up with Qin Mo's seemingly lazy footsteps, but in fact, once he pays attention to something, he will start at an astonishing speed.

That would really hurt!
"Your Majesty, the medical center is different from the academy. People without knowledge can still live. If people are sick, they will not live long. Only with a complete medical system can the people of Daqin thrive explosively and have the energy to develop. Daqin's foundation... My minister, I want to see Daqin dominate Huanyu in my lifetime..."

Seeing that Ying Zheng remained silent, Qin Mo quietly added.

Ying Zhengdan's phoenix eyes lit up immediately, and Qin Mo's words tickled his itch.

A smile appeared on the corner of Qin Mo's mouth, and he continued: "And the development of medicine is also a gradual process. A perfect medical system will make many difficult and miscellaneous diseases gradually become minor diseases that can be cured by medicine."

"Just like in the past, not serious sword wounds were enough to kill many Daqin soldiers, but now they can be easily healed."

"To give another simple and intuitive example, if it weren't for Xia Wuqiu and the accumulated research of medical students in the academy to produce allicin, old general Wang Jian would have been buried in the ground by now... and with allicin, even if allicin Everyone believed that Old General Wang Jian was dying, but after a few drops of medicine, he came back to life."

"Your Majesty's pursuit of longevity is illusory, but the pursuit of longevity is practicable, and the foundation of practicability is a sound medical system, so that it can accumulate more, overcome more difficult and miscellaneous diseases, and greatly extend people's lifespan." extend."

"I want to see Daqin dominate Huanyu in my lifetime. Doesn't Your Majesty not want to?"
