Farmer’s Little Girl

  Chapter 2293 Rumors

  The soldier knelt on the ground to reply, he himself felt a little confused, because he was one of the people who went around to inquire about the method of vaccination.

  In the Central Plains, although smallpox is basically not cured, the doctor can still come up with a prescription or two.

  But in the Western Regions, if you get a disease like smallpox, you will basically kill them all and spread it as an immune disease. They didn't even find out a prescription, let alone a prescription for epidemic prevention.

  But now...

  Soldier said: "It's a businessman who came to Xizhou to sell wolf skins and sheep. He came from Tingzhou. He knew that someone was inquiring about smallpox cures. He thought that there was a reward to receive, so he came to receive the reward."

  General Guo sat in the chair and asked, "Isn't it a fabric?"

  The soldiers dare not draw conclusions.

  General Guo paused and said: "Call someone here, I will ask myself."

  The soldiers took their orders and left.

  "...It is said that there is a Buddhist kingdom in the extreme west, where the people are very powerful, everyone can heal, and many intractable diseases can be cured. Smallpox is even simpler."

  General Guo lost interest in a moment, leaning on his chair and thinking, returning to the Buddha country, these words were made up.

The businessman continued: "I heard that there is a way to plant smallpox on cows, wait for the cows to develop acne, and then inoculate the acne on people. People there are all born with acne, so they don’t have a lifetime. Will get smallpox..."

  General Guo couldn’t help but sit up again, narrowing his eyes and thinking, “Is there really such a country?”

The businessman confidently said: "Of course, my lord, this legend is only known to some old people. The younger one knows it because of good popularity. I heard that there are adults here who are asking about this. Come……"

  General Guo understood what he meant, and looked at the soldier on the side.

  The soldiers gave him a roll of silk cloth.

  The businessman hugged him tightly, but he didn't expect that the news could actually be exchanged for money.

  General Guo asked, "Where is that country?"

   "In the extreme west."

  General Guo:...

   After luck, he asked, "Are there many people who know about this?"

   "Not many, they are all elderly people, because they have lived a long time and have seen many people. This is what I heard from some businessmen passing by. Many people don't know."

  General Guo waved his hand and was not interested in listening. He pointed to the soldier and said, "Take him to the mission and hand it to them."

  The businessman was shocked, holding the silk cloth and shivering, "General, General, I don't want this reward."

  Guo General: "...take it, would you be such a stingy person? Let him take you to another place to collect the reward, and repeat what you said to the general."

  So the businessman followed his soldiers to visit Mr. Zhuang’s yard.

  Hakujiro and the others are much more generous than General Guo. They asked more detailed questions and then gave the merchant a whole piece of silk cloth.

  After the merchant was sent out, Mr. Zhuang looked at Bai Erlang, "You made up this story?"

  Shirajiro subconsciously denied, "No!"

  They are clearly talking about a country with a rich national power, but not a kingdom of Buddha or God.

  Mr. Zhuang was a little skeptical, because this story sounds familiar.

  His suspicious gaze kept sweeping Shirajiro, and in the end he didn't ask about it again, but said: "Since there is news, let people go out to inquire, and see if I can find out more details."

  He paused and said, “Bai Shan and the others are also in the direction of Tingzhou, maybe they can know more detailed information.”

Although Mr. Zhuang came with the intention of studying abroad, he really wanted to find a way to prevent and treat smallpox, but now it seems that the so-called prescription for smallpox prevention and control was also made by a few disciples.

  Mr. Zhuang frowned, but seeing Nie Canjun and Wei Xingren rushing over, he smiled and temporarily suppressed these thoughts.

  Nie was very excited to join the army, "Master Zhuang, have you heard about the vaccination?"

  Mr. Zhuang smiled and nodded, "Yes, thanks to General Guo, he has been sending people out to inquire about this matter, and now I have some vague news."

  The story told by the businessman is cut from the beginning to the end, leaving only the key parts to tell them.

  Nie Junjun's eyes brightened, "There really is such a way, then can we find this small Western Region and get a prescription?

  Wei Xingren and the others did not have such confidence. The two said: "How many small countries are in the Western Regions, it's not clear. It only refers to the extreme west, and they didn't even say the name of a country. Where can I find it?"

   "Moreover, the more you go west, the more unstable and the colder it gets. Keep going, I'm afraid you can't turn around after years."

  Although they have been prepared to spend two years on the road to the Western Regions, it does not mean that they are willing to spend a long time in the Western Regions. Even if they have a lot of money, they still miss the comfort of the capital.

Mr. Zhuang thought for a while and said: "Man... It is impossible for Master Zhou to leave the capital for a long time, and there is also Bai Er. He always wants to return to Beijing. Now the chief officer is not there. Wait for her to come back to discuss this matter. Bar."

  Mr. Zhuang paused and said, "Maybe they have good news there."

  Wei Xingren and they suddenly seemed to have taken a reassurance pill, too, and Bai Cheng was there.

  He is Princess Mingda’s son-in-law. Others can hang around outside for a few years without returning to Beijing, but he can’t. Next year, Princess Mingda will get married when she is filial piety, and he has to return to Beijing.

  So Nie Canjun, Wei Xingren and the others were all happy, and left with peace of mind. It's better to wait for Master Zhou to come back to discuss the matter, but they can also inquire about it nearby.

  Not many people knew about this news, but Nie Cengjun and the others were able to inquire about it.

  Although there are differences in the stories I heard, the key points have not changed. In the extreme west, there is indeed a country where people know how to grow vaccinia. I heard that people in that country are never afraid of smallpox when they go out.

  It is very enviable to listen.

  Not only makes Nie Junjun envy them, but also the people in the Western Regions and the grasslands.

  The herdsmen in the Western Regions and the grasslands have horses, and their people are brave and powerful, but why can’t they always go to the Central Plains?

  Of course, they don’t feel that they have limited combat power and lack of resourcefulness. They think that smallpox and other diseases have restricted them.

  It is very dangerous for them to enter the customs. They are very likely to get diseases such as smallpox, so they cannot enter the Central Plains.

  Yes, that’s why.

When Nie Cenjun heard these small comments when inquiring about the news, he was quite dissatisfied. He came back and said to Mr. Zhuang and the others: "Your Majesty is so kind to them, but they have no feelings for them. They still want to enter the Central Plains. The heart is punishable."

See you tomorrow

  　　, come on, put a curse on the head, I swear, I will add more tomorrow
