Chapter 191: Naked Blackmail
There are few places in the world where the efficiency is higher than that of the army, especially in ancient times, and if there are few men involved in the tailor's trade, then such a man as the production of sulfur soap is exactly what a worker should do, and the productivity of a hundred people who specialize in the production of sulfur soap at the same time is too great.
On the first day, Hao Datong handed over 5,000 pieces of finished sulfur soap, and the soybean oil alone consumed 100 catties, and the other consumption was no longer a few.
In five days, Hao Datong has handed over more than 30,000 pieces of sulfur soap, and the quality of sulfur soap is getting better and better, the entire Tongzhou Town, everyone has a piece of sulfur soap, and they need to wash their hands with sulfur soap at least three times a day, Zhu Jie has issued a strict order, who dares to violate the military order, severely punished.
Later, sulfur soap is still being produced in a steady stream every day, even a person with a sloppy personality like Shu Xinchen can't help it, the consumption is too great, seven days have passed, just for the production of sulfur soap, the military camp has consumed six or seven thousand catties of quicklime, two thousand catties of soybean oil, more than three thousand catties of reduction, hundreds of catties of sulfur, and thousands of taels of silver! Almost, 1,000 taels of silver a day, so that for a month, tens of thousands of taels of silver were thrown in, and it seems that there is more than that, the production speed of the workers is getting faster and faster, and in the future, it is not a problem to produce 10,000 pieces of sulfur soap a day! The raw materials alone cost two thousand taels of silver! Coupled with the production of masks, the silver taels thrown into Tongzhou Town are now nearly 20,000 taels of silver!
It's just that in the past two days, where does Zhu Jie have time to stay in the barracks every day, he still has to deal with the epidemic in Shuntianfu, without his order, no one dares to reduce production! What's more, Zhu Jie has already issued two orders in succession, continue to increase production, and must produce 150,000 pieces of sulfur soap within half a month! The sulfur soap produced in a month cannot be less than 400,000 pieces!
400,000 yuan!
Shu Xinchen and Yang Chengzu scolded their mothers in distress, with the purchase of raw materials, these things are rising step by step, a large amount of soybean oil, alkaline noodles and sulfur and other raw materials have seriously affected the daily supply of the capital, don't increase the price to hell, half a month, enough for the price of these things to double!
In a month, it is not a matter of investing 30,000 taels of silver, but I am afraid that without 50,000 taels of silver, I will not be able to get down!
Shu Xinchen and Yang Chengzu were distressed, and Zhu Jie in Beijing was afraid that their production speed would be too slow.
In six or seven days, the signs of plague outbreak in Beijing are becoming more and more obvious!
Zhu Jie has lived in thousands of patients in the temporary shack built in Yongdingmen, all of whom are homeless people and ordinary people in Beijing, and a large number of people have been infected, and panic has begun to appear in the capital!
Fortunately, the herbs purchased in Tongzhou Town have been in place, Zhu Jie purchased all kinds of herbs in one go, tens of thousands of catties, and even the family funds have to be spent, on weekdays, these herbs are sold according to a few taels, contemplation a few catties, the price is really expensive, these herbs alone cost tens of thousands of taels of silver, and the money in Tongzhou Town is not enough, so he can only embezzle part of the silver of Liuxianju first.
As soon as the herbs were in place, Zhu Jie asked all the doctors in the Tai Hospital to start the emergency configuration, and configured tens of thousands of packages of herbs in one go, and arranged for the soldiers in the army and the capital to recruit them to specifically diagnose and treat the patients. It's really killing people with one hand, saving people with the other, life and death are all under the control of one person! This is the reincarnation of King Yama!
The fame of Zhu Jie and the magic herb has spread far and wide, and the whole city of Beijing has spread the word, Zhu Jie's name is really known to women and children, and some people have put Zhu Jie's ranking in their own homes to get rid of the plague!
However, even so, even if Zhu Jie made every effort to control the epidemic, the epidemic in Beijing still did not slow down in the slightest, after all, the plague has been brought into Beijing by rats and patients, and many patients have begun to get sick.
Not only are the people of Beijing panicking, but also the nobles of Beijing City are beginning to panic in a large area, the plague, hundreds of people have died of disease, and the number of cases is still rising sharply! The most terrible thing is that now the entire city of Beijing has been under martial law, without the emperor's will and the token of Shuntianfu, no one is allowed to leave Beijing City, no one is allowed to enter Beijing City without an order, and now it is impossible for these ministers to go out and hide for two days, Zhu Jie has cut down seven or eight generals guarding the city gate one after another, all of them are dereliction of duty and let people out of the city without permission!
If this is left in normal times, there will be no, and there will not even be a scolding, this time it will be different, Zhu Jie is completely killing, which one does not obey the military order, kill! Kill! Kill!
The soldiers and Jinyi guards of the Beijing Chengjing Camp have been completely intimidated, this Zhu Jie is simply a living Hades, whether it is an enemy or his own people, once he is provoked, he will be killed, and his heart is ruthless!
At this time, everyone faintly regretted why they refused the emperor's persuasion in the first place, it was really a trouble, Beijing City became a dead land, and everyone wanted to live......
At this critical time, a good news was released by Zhu Jie - in order to curb the epidemic and prevent it before it happens, Zhu Jie has developed a protective gear, a kind of ointment, the protective gear needs to be worn on the face every day, and the ointment is used to wash hands and face every day, which can avoid being infected by the plague to the greatest extent, and sell it together with herbal medicines!
The most terrible thing is that the most incredible thing for the court officials is that all the herbs, ointments, and masks are distributed by Zhu Jie to the poor for free, as long as the civilians are sick, they will be treated for free, but if the officials of the DPRK and the Chinese government and the rich businessmen in the capital want to get it, then I'm sorry, pay for it!
Zhu Jieming marked the price, a decoction pattern of silver fifty taels, a pair of mask pattern silver two taels, a piece of medicated soap ten taels of silver!
Extortion!
This is naked blackmail! This is an open fire battle, which is even more despicable than blocking the road and robbing, Tongzhou Town is a nest of robbers, and Zhu Jie is the biggest robber leader among them, the king of the mountain!
All the wealthy businessmen and tycoons were furious, furious!
