Yuan Qing left after Ling, originally intending to rush to Wugui Mansion quickly, but when he arrived at the county near Wugui Mansion, grandma asked to stop first. She went to the local Huimin Office and asked them to supply medicine to Wugui Mansion. , Make preparations first, and send it to Wugui Mansion immediately after the order is issued.
The medical department under the Huimin Department has undergone reforms over the years and has seen results. The local and local medical departments are closely linked, and medical care is not separated. Especially once the epidemic mechanism is activated, the upstream needs to do everything possible to provide doctors and medicines. assistance.
After ordering these things, he hurried to Wugui Mansion.
When they arrived at Wugui Mansion, Yu Wenhao and others hadn't arrived yet.
Wugui Prefecture has a population of 5 million. It is the merger of two state capitals. It is located in the tropics and has many cultivated land and mountainous areas. It is mainly farming, and it can be regarded as the imperial court's West Okura.
In areas with developed farming, the economy is relatively prosperous. In addition to growing rice, the local people also plant a large number of persimmons and plums, lychee and longan. In addition to being fresh and edible, the lychee and longan can also be made into dry goods, which will bring prosperity to a certain extent. Improved the local economy.
Wugui Mansion is adjacent to the Baiyue State, which is a vassal state of the Northern Tang Dynasty, with friendly borders and economic interoperability, which also promoted the prosperity of the two countries to a certain extent.
The surname of the prefect of Wugui Mansion was Zhang, the prefect of Zhang was a good official, and the local people admired him very much.
After Yuan Qingling and grandma arrived at Wugui Mansion, they went straight to the local medical office.
Grandma Yuan revealed her identity, saying that she was the resident of the Huimin Administration, and she was in charge of the medical departments of all prefectures in Northern Tang Dynasty, which was equivalent to the boss.
Doctor Li of the Medical Department was very excited. After welcoming the two in, he saw him as if he had met an idol, and his words were a little trembling, "Xiaguan Li Ziyu, I don’t know if your old man is here in person. I have lost a long way to welcome him. Hope forgive me. Sin."
Grandma Yuan was a little dizzy. After sitting down, she took a breath and said, "Master Li, don't be polite. Sit down. I have something to ask you."
Master Li bowed to Yuan Qingling again, "I don't know who this is?"
"This is my granddaughter, who came with me. You sit down and I will ask you something." Grandma Yuan said.
After Master Li gave Yuan Qingling his hand, he slowly sat down and said, "My lord, please ask."
"Did the city have a seasonal epidemic recently?"
Li Daren said: "If you go back to the adults, as in previous years, there will be colds in winter and spring. Now it is the period of high incidence, but after one or two months, it will be relieved."
"Then the number of infections and the severity of the illness are the same as in previous years?"
"Slightly aggravated, but the problem is not serious. It has been reported to the government office, and the government has ordered the people in the city to wear masks and take soup and tea if they catch a cold."
"What is the number of patients? What is the number of deaths?" Yuan Qingling asked.
Master Li said: "This... this is no way to count. After all, many people who get sick buy soup and tea by themselves, or they prepare soup and tea at home. The medical department is not fully staffed and it is impossible to investigate and count. Mainly it is not necessary."
Yuan Qingling said: "Since there are no statistics, how do you know that the number of infections is the same as in previous years?"
Master Li saw Yuan Qingling's words quite majestic, and he was slightly stunned, and he couldn't help taking pictures. He said hurriedly: "Because the medical clinics have not reported too many cases, and the government medical offices are the same as in previous years. As for the number of deaths you asked, you can’t die if you catch a cold like this, unless you are in a particularly bad condition and you are sick.”
"Are you sure? Have you investigated?" Yuan Qingling asked.
"Someone sent people to ask questions, and if people died, they had to report to the government. Wugui Mansion is so big, there must be people dying every day."
Yuan Qingling slumped, "You immediately send someone to the medical offices of the towns to ask, and you understand everything about the situation, and you will reply to me within tomorrow."
Master Li was a little upset in her heart. You are not the imperial order officer, but the granddaughter of the master of the bureau. How can you assign him to do errands
