Hand over the jade seal first [Infrastructure]

Xiao Zirong's face changed at that time, he was always worried about this problem.

Although he made repeated orders not to massacre infected people as a last resort, after all, clinical trials are required to develop drugs, and clinical trials require a lot of samples to test for adverse reactions and so on.

Where is he going to do clinical tests when all the cases are gone?

Xiao Zirong was very angry. He had dealt with so many people who were obedient and disobedient. There must be no one in Qi who dared to do this, and it was probably the officials in the north.

Xiao Yan and Chai He looked at Xiao Xuexing together. Xiao Xuexing originally wanted to ignore them, but felt that he was probably the only one talking about this matter, so Xiao Zirong would not lose his temper, so he said: "The disappeared person It's not just the sick ones."

Xiao Zirong heard his point: "Disappeared? Didn't die?"

Xiao Xuexing nodded and said, "That's right, these people were taken away."

Xiao Zirong was stunned: "Take it away? Who took it away?"

Who is so overwhelmed with taking all the patients away?

Xiao Xuexing said, "Hey."

Xiao Zirong: ...

He almost forgot that there is still a tiger watching in the north.

After all, the recent epidemic is really consuming too much energy, so he naturally handed over these things to Xiao Xuan and Xiao Xuexing to deal with.

And some time ago Xiao Xuan was exhausted from dealing with the government affairs. After Xiao Xuexing came back, he immediately handed over to him and didn't care about what he said.

He Da took advantage of this period of time.

In fact, even if Xiao Xuexing had already taken control of the government, there was nothing he could do about it. Now Wei Jun and the others didn't have full control, and Qi Jun didn't dare to send them there, for fear that the people they sent would not come back.

In the Northland, almost all the county guards are doing their own thing.

In this case, isn't it the same as playing games when beating those sheriffs?

Xiao Zirong's expression was a bit ugly, but he couldn't blame anyone for this matter, he just asked, "Are they trying to establish themselves as kings?"

Xiao Xuexing sneered: "I probably thought about it at first, but now I guess no one would dare."

The first is that there is Heda staring at the side, and no state dares to say that they can stop Heda's cavalry.

The second is that even if they want to become kings on their own, they still have to consider the disease, especially after the serum was born. It is said that some people have improved after being inoculated with the serum.

Even if they don't care about the people, but just for their own family to survive, these people have to bow their heads to Qi.

In fact, even if they really set themselves up as Wang Xiaoxuexing, they don't worry about it, they just wait for the epidemic to stabilize before fighting over it.

I just didn't expect Xie Da to start so fast.

Xiao Zirong sighed: "What's the situation in the north now?"

Xiao Xue showed the data and said: "Generally, state capitals can rely on city walls and moats to defend themselves. The situation in the surrounding villages and towns is not optimistic. Those who were infected with the plague and were already dying were killed, and those with mild symptoms were taken away along with the young and old. .”

After hearing this, Xiao Zirong had a strange expression on his face.

Seeing the number of people who died, it was true that he felt distressed, but hey, this is basically suicidal.

If they don't snatch people away, maybe it's okay to leave honestly, but they insist on staying here and snatching people... The plague is no joke, and the nomads are really not very good at cleaning.

Xiao Zirong rubbed his chin and said: "Send an envoy to warn them, and say that I told them to stop now and send everyone back, otherwise they will be punished by heaven."

Xiao Xuexing turned to look at him angrily and funny: "What are you going to do?"

He knew that Xiao Zirong had always disliked playing tricks, so why did he take the initiative to do so this time?

Xiao Zirong said: "He must have looted a lot of good things in these years of war."

Everyone understood in an instant, and His Majesty thought of a new way to squeeze wool.

In fact, Xiao Zirong's use of the serum had relieved a lot of financial pressure, and those rich men in the Northland were really rich.

After all, the Northern Wei Dynasty controlled the Silk Road before, and their relationship with the surrounding Hu people was not bad. If Xiao Zirong hadn't opened up the sailing route, Qi might not be able to match the Northern Wei Dynasty financially.

During this process, some wealthy people in Qi State were also worried and wanted to get serum, and even some officials wanted to try it, but Xiao Zirong beat them all back in the end.

It's too late to treat patients now, why are these people joining in the fun?

What's more, serum is not a vaccine, so you like to get injections when you have nothing to do?

But it’s not enough to just squeeze the rich and powerful in the North. The money in the hands of these rich and squires is actually taken from the people. Now Xiao Zirong can squeeze these rich and these rich and squires can squeeze the people. In the end, it is the people who suffer.

So this is just an expedient measure, and we must really find a way to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.

Just before that, he was still thinking about how to recruit volunteers to participate in the streptomycin experiment. The drug experiment is not a joke, it may really kill people.

He also wants to use animals for experiments, but in fact, there are no animals that can be used for experiments these days, and the cultivation of mice has just begun.

And the most important point, even if he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit it was that the lives of some people were much cheaper than the lives of mice.

Using human life to test is less money than using mice, Xiao Zirong doesn't know how to evaluate such a thing.

However, this is the most common situation at present.

Xiao Zirong never withheld money from the laboratory, he had a sum of money specially reserved for the laboratory, but Zhai Xi and the others didn't really know anything, they had heard more or less that Qi State's current financial pressure was tight.

So Zhai Xi took the lead in submitting the application, hoping to directly conduct human trials.

Zhai Xi also understands the hardships of people's livelihood, and as a science student in this era, she is very rational and also knows that a plan must be supported by data if it is to be passed by their majesty.

So she listed the data, among other things, there are too many children and daughters being sold in the Northland, and many of them are patients with mild symptoms, and the price is even lower. Maybe a human life is only a catty of rice. face only.

The state of Qi's granary can indeed support it, but it can't all be allocated, and some should be left to deal with disasters.

Xiao Zirong knew rationally that this was the best way, he could buy food for these people to come and do experiments, but he couldn't get Zhu Zhu's approval for a long time.

Before, he said to Xiao Xuexing with a wry smile: "I feel like being an emperor, too conscientious doesn't seem good."

Xiao Xuexing said at the time: "These decisions you make are for more people, no one can really be too forgetful."

Xiao Zirong shook his head and said nothing, but muttered: "There is always a better way."

Now he is glad that he persisted for a while, and now there is really a better way.

There was no movement at first, and not only that, they even drove out the envoys sent by Qi.

Heda was still very angry at Qi Guo for cutting off trade with them. Before, even their Teller had to come to intercede in person, but was rejected without hesitation.

Heda thought that their attitude had been lowered enough, but Qi still refused to resume trade with them.

It's hard to say whether they are still lingering in the Northland and want to fight Qi.

You must know that it was an expedition for Xie Da to come to them. The food and money they looted was at most enough to support the expenses of this expedition. It was almost impossible to keep money.

If the Kingdom of Wei hadn't been defeated, they would definitely not lose out if the Kingdom of Wei paid tribute. Now that the Kingdom of Wei has fallen into the pocket of the Kingdom of Qi, even the assets of the royal family have been controlled by Xiao Xuexing. Those who can be taken away can't be taken away. Let people watch what you take away.

It can be said that Xie Da would lose a day's money every day here. If he didn't want revenge, Xiao Zirong would not be able to figure out why they still didn't retreat.

Xiao Zirong didn't care about the envoy's being chased away, he just had a bad taste, he just wanted to see Xie Da's reaction after he found out that he brought back the person with the disease, at least Xie Da didn't even plan to kill the envoy.

Xiao Zirong asked the Privy Council to keep an eye on Heda's movements.

Not to mention, there is still some reason for Heda to be able to traverse this continent. After they took away the infected people of Wei State, they found the epidemic and executed those people on the spot. Even the healthy people who gathered with them did not Escape from the clutches.

But even if they killed all the Central Plains people, it would not help, after all, they had come into contact with a lot along the way.

When people at the bottom come into contact with these captives, they will infect their superiors. In this way, the infection will go up step by step. It can only be said that the number of nobles infected is relatively small, and the middle class is the most infected.

Heda used all the methods to no avail, praying to heaven, praying to their gods was useless.

At this time, they remembered that the Qi State sent an envoy to warn them. Could this be the divine punishment that envoy said?

Heda Taylor sighed and said: "I once said that the emperor of Qi has the qualifications of a witch, and he was only angry because he suffered a loss before. We should not anger him."

Because he has always been more inclined to the Qi State, his life has not been very good recently, and he has been squeezed out by many people, and some people even suspect that he has a private connection with the Qi State.

But now he is valued because he is biased towards Qi.

A few years later, Teller's temples had gray hair. He looked at the clansmen who begged him and wanted Emperor Qi to help resolve the scourge, and sighed: "I'm not sure, but I'll go there myself. trip."

There is no way, many envoys sent by them were driven back.

Xiao Zirong turned to Xiao Xuexing when he got that Heda Taylor wanted to come and brought those Jiankang people from the Central Plains together: "Look, these Heda people really belong to donkeys. fall back."

If he had told the other party not to take those people away in a good voice, these people would definitely not agree.

Xiao Xuexing looked at Xiao Zirong: "What are you going to do?"

Xiao Zirong rolled up his sleeves: "Wait and see how I fool him."
