Chapter 627: Sanitation Issues

And Li Zhen and Li Yun heard Li Ke say that Tianzhu was too smelly, and the faces of the two couldn't help but show a little wry smile, and then Li Yun poured bitter water on Li Ke and said: "Third brother, you don't know, when we first came to Tianzhu, various cities were several times more stinky than now, and even dead people could be seen on the street, and no one cared about it, not to mention the smell." ”

"Yes, when we occupied the original capital of Chora City, it was the situation that Seventh Brother said, and later we hired a group of Shudras to clean the city's sanitation with money, and it was forbidden to defecate anywhere, and the situation got better, but the Tianzhu people have long been accustomed to this kind of life, and it is not something that a few prohibitions can stop at all, so the health situation in various places is still not optimistic." Li Zhen also said at this time.

And before Li Ke could speak, Li Yun, who had just taken a breath, continued: "But poor hygiene is not the key, the key is that under such sanitary conditions, it is very easy to cause various diseases, and the doctors we recruited from the sixth brother who graduated from medical school, they have made suggestions to us several times to improve the environment, of course we also want to change the current situation, but it is not so easy at all." ”

"But it's strange to say, the locals of Tianzhu are alive and well in this environment, I haven't heard of any plague before, but the people we brought are not good, some time ago there was a wind chill in the army, and all the people who got sick were Han and Hu people who came with us, but those Tianzhu soldiers did not have a little thing, although the medical officers in the army were skilled, but there were still a few seriously ill people who did not survive, which is just the opposite of the smallpox epidemic in Australia and the Americas, I am really worried that one day we will be wiped out by a plague." Li Zhen continued with great distress.

"Then you must have already taken measures. Can't we let this continue? After Li Ke listened to the bitter water poured out by his two younger brothers, he had a feeling of crying and laughing. He didn't expect that under the bright prospect of Tianzhu's prosperity, there would be such a hidden crisis.

"Of course there are measures. We have asked the sixth brother and my father for help, not only imported a large number of medicinal materials from him and Datang, but also introduced a lot of medical talents at a high price, and even in Chola City, where the conditions are better, we are also preparing to open a medical school of our own, and then vigorously cultivate medical talents, and strive to find someone to treat when the disease breaks out. Li Yun said with a bitter face.

"However, this method can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and we want to fundamentally change the situation. The best way is to change the habits of the current Tianzhu people, at least let them know that they should take a bath frequently and not defecate in the open. Li Ke hit the nail on the head after hearing this.

"We naturally know this, but what worries me and Seventh Brother now is that we can't solve this problem at all." Li Zhen said helplessly.

"What's so hard about that?" Li Ke looked very surprised, "You can learn from your sixth brother in Taiwan, set up a police station, and then recruit some policemen to patrol the streets, as long as you find poor personal hygiene, throwing garbage and other behaviors." Just go up and fine it, as long as the enforcement is strict, it shouldn't be too difficult, right? ”

However, for Li Ke's words, Li Zhen and Li Yun looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Then Li Yun opened his mouth to explain: "Originally, we also thought the same as the third brother, and we did it, but later we found that this method was not feasible. Because the laziness of these Tianzhu people has penetrated into their bones, they can't be managed by the police alone. Especially at night when you can't see it, you can't take care of it. After all, Tianzhu City is not extravagant enough to light up the entire Keelung City at night like the Sixth Brother. ”

Li Ke didn't expect that a small health problem would be so difficult to solve, and he felt a little helpless for a while.

In addition, Li Ke also thought that now that Zhongtianzhu and Nantianzhu have been decided, although Li Zhen and Li Yun's rule over various places has gradually strengthened, and most places have become stable, they don't want to cause instability because of health, after all, this matter is serious and serious, but in the eyes of Tianzhu people, it is just an insignificant trivial matter, so if Li Zhen and Li Yun grasp this small matter too tightly, I am afraid it will cause dissatisfaction among the people at the bottom.

"It seems that this matter is really troublesome, and it is estimated that even Rokuro can't think of any good way, so the two of you estimate that you will have to endure it for a few more years, and wait until the entire Tianzhu is firmly grasped in your hands, and then it is not too late to find a way to solve this problem." Li Ke finally shook his head helplessly.

"Alas, it is indeed impossible to cure the root cause in a short period of time, so we can only start from the symptomatic treatment, especially the doctors who treat the disease, we must train more, in addition, the Han and Hu people also live in a concentrated manner, fortunately, Tianzhu originally lived according to the caste, and now both the Han and the Hu people are high castes, but also avoid contact with those low castes with the worst sanitary conditions, in case of any disease, it is also convenient to deal with it uniformly." Li Yun also smiled helplessly.

Next, Li Ke asked Li Zhen and Li Yun about Africa, after all, they are not far from Africa, especially the original Dashi and Persia, they both like to capture Africans as slaves, and there are even a lot of them in Tianzhu, so Li Zhen and Li Yun still have some understanding of Tianzhu's situation.

However, the information provided by Li Zhen and Li Yun on Africa is very fragmentary, mainly introducing some of Africa's climate, geography and customs, such as the hot weather in Africa, the tropical jungles all over the place, and the existence of a large number of tribes, as well as the degree of civilization of these tribes.

Before I knew it, it was already afternoon, and the three of them had almost eaten, so Li Zhen and Li Yun asked people to remove the remnants of the table, and at this time Li Yun said: "Third brother, this time you have a hard time coming, you must stay in Tianzhu for a few more days, Brother Qi and I are almost busy, just enough to accompany you around!" ”

"Eighth brother is right, third brother, you only went around Nantianzhu and Zhongtianzhu for a while, you must have not been to Beitianzhu, where the original Jieri Dynasty is located, the city there is much more prosperous than here, and the climate is more pleasant, we occupy a small kingdom there, it is very safe there, then you go with us to have a look." Li Zhen also spoke.

However, Li Ke shook his head and said with a smile: "The kindness of the seventh brother and the eighth brother is understood by the brother, but I came to Tianzhu mainly to visit you, so I can't stay for a long time, but this time I came with me, but there are two young heroes, if you are free, I can introduce you to you, but they are the future right-hand men of my brother, you can't dig my corner!" ”

Hearing Li Ke introduce the two young people to himself so solemnly, this made Li Zhen and Li Yun very surprised, and immediately spoke: "The person who can be called a young handsome man by the third brother is definitely not a simple person, and I ask the third brother to introduce you on your behalf." ”

"Wait a minute, the two of them didn't follow me into the palace today, but wandered around in Zhongjing City, I guess we have to send someone to find it!" Li Ke also seemed very excited, and it could be seen that he was also very satisfied with the two people around him.

However, just when Li Ke had just ordered people to go out to find his two subordinates, suddenly someone outside the hall reported: "Qiqi two popes, General Wang asks to see!" ”

When Li Zhen and Li Yun heard this, their eyes lit up, and they immediately ordered General Wang to come in, and then Li Zhen took the lead in saying to Li Ke: "Third brother, just now you said that you would introduce us to the young handsome, but now there is just a young handsome man next to us who wants to see him, and I will introduce you to him." ”

"General Wang?" Li Kewei thought about it, and immediately said very excitedly, "Could it be that not long ago, General Wang Xuance, who commanded the army to win more with less, and helped you win the battle of Watapi?" ”

"Hahaha~, I didn't expect that the third brother you have also heard of the name of Xuan Ce, if he knew, he would definitely be very happy." Li Zhen laughed again and spoke.

Li Ke was even more happy to receive Li Zhen's affirmative answer. In fact, when Li Zhen and Li Yun went to Taiwan, they passed by Shanghai, Li Ke had seen Wang Xuance, but he didn't pay attention to it at the time, until Li Xuan specially mentioned it to him, which aroused his interest, until Wang Xuance was invincible on the battlefield of Tianzhu, which made Li Ke very curious, and also made friends, and even regretted that he couldn't have a good chat with the other party.

While the three of them were talking, Wang Xuance had already strode into the hall, but when he saw Li Ke sitting on the main seat, he was also surprised, because he didn't know the news of Li Ke's arrival in advance.

However, Wang Xuance quickly reacted, stepped forward and saluted: "Your Majesty Wang Xuance, see the two popes, and see His Royal Highness King Wu!" Disturbing the brotherhood between His Royal Highness King Wu and the Pope, His Majesty really deserves to die! ”

Li Ke took a closer look at Wang Xuance, and found that when he first saw the other party, he felt that Wang Xuance's literary atmosphere was relatively heavy, and he didn't look like he came out of the military academy at all, but when he looked at it again today, he found that Wang Xuance was wearing civilian clothes, and his appearance had become dark and thin, but he had more of the fierceness and evil spirit of a military general, and it looked like a cup of sword that had been opened.

"Hahaha~, General Wang doesn't have to be polite, the last battle of Watapi made you famous all over the world, and when I came, the sixth brother specially mentioned you to me, and even made it clear that he was a little jealous that the seventh and eighth brothers got such a great talent as you." I saw Li Su laughing and stepped forward to help Wang Xuance up, and then made fun of Li Xu.

Wang Xuance looked very calm, and the smile on his face remained unchanged: "His Royal Highness King Wu has praised falsely, the last general can only win a battle by luck by borrowing the prestige of the two popes and the soldiers' lives!" ”

Seeing Wang Xuance's pampered and unfazed look, Li Ke was even more admired in his heart, if Wang Xuance was a piece of jade back then, then the current Wang Xuance is a peerless jade that has been tempered.

However, although Li Ke envied Li Zhen and Li Yun for being assisted by people like Wang Xuance, he also believed that although the two young heroes who came with him were not famous now, their future achievements would definitely not be under Wang Xuance. However, what Li Ke didn't expect was that his two young heroes would immediately bring him a big surprise. (To be continued......)
