Chapter 267 The world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit(1/2)

"Is there a way to solve the plague?"

Tang Hong suddenly stood up, a bright color appeared in his dim eyes, "Who is that person?"

"My Lord, the man is wearing a black hat. I don't know her identity, but from her voice, she should be a woman."

The servant replied honestly.

"Female?"

"Then you hurry up and take her to the vestibule."

Tang Hong ordered.

"yes."

The servant nodded and left.

"Sir, do you think this is another liar?"

The butler thought about it and said with some doubt.

Although the plague has been rampant in the past two days and people are in panic, some people want to make a fortune by using the plague.

Yesterday, two people came to the city lord's mansion and said that it could solve the problem of the plague, and Tang Hong also invited them into the mansion. Later, he found that the two were liars and could not solve the problem of the plague at all. They were just coming to cheat money.

In anger, Tang Hong directly detained the two men.

"It's possible, but now the court has not sent anyone to come down, so we can only find a way to solve the plague by ourselves. At this time, if someone can solve the plague, it's the best. If that person comes to cheat money, it's okay. Anyway, the prison cells in Shangcheng are very hollow now, and there are not many more hers."

A hint of coolness appeared in Tang Hong's eyes.

Because of this plague, more than half of the prisoners died in the cell in Shangcheng, and it is very empty now, so Tang Hong doesn't mind sending some scammers into it.

"It's still thoughtful."

The housekeeper flattered him a little.

After a while, the footsteps sounded again.

"Sir, this person said that he can solve the plague problem."

The servant appeared outside the front hall, then pointed to a woman in a white robe behind him and said.

The woman was wearing a wide hat and couldn't tell her true face, but her figure was plump, with a bulge in front and a raised back. Tang Hong and the butler just looked at the woman's figure and felt a little "excited".

However, they were also considered people who had seen big scenes and soon returned to peace.

"You go down first."

"yes."

When the servant said goodbye, Tang Hong spoke again and said, "Please, please come from this girl."

The woman in white robe nodded softly and entered the front hall.

"But, make a cup of high-quality ginseng tea for this girl."

Although Tang Hong didn't know whether the woman in white robe could solve the plague in front of him, he still needed to treat guests.

If you are not capable, you will invite this woman to a prison meal.

"yes."

The housekeeper followed the order and immediately poured a cup of high-quality ginseng tea for the woman in white robe, and then retreated aside.

"Miss, do you have a way to solve the plague?"

Tang Hong didn't talk nonsense, he just came up and asked.

"According to my observation, this plague should be a plague. My family has practiced medicine for generations and they still have some experience in dealing with the plague. As long as you take this medicinal material to those infected with the plague, you should be cured."

The woman in a white robe took out a pair of herbal medicine from her arms and placed it on the table.

Seeing this, Tang Hong was stunned for a moment.

This woman in white robe is not like the one who came to the city lord's mansion to cheat before. She talks a lot of nonsense. Anyway, the summary is just one sentence. I have a way, but I have to take it slowly.

Of course, there is also a possibility, that is, this woman in white robe is not a liar at all.

When Tang Hong opened the medicinal materials, a faint fragrance emanated.

"But, look at what herbal medicines are there?"

Tang Hong signaled the butler to step forward.

Although he really wanted to try whether these medicinal herbs could cure the plague, he did not dare to joke about other people's lives for the time being.

Tang Hong's housekeeper is similar to the pharmacology, and I think he can tell whether there is any problem with these medicinal materials.

"Um."

The housekeeper's classical Chinese immediately took a few steps forward and his eyes fell on the medicinal herbs.

"This is Baizhi."

"This is the star anise lotus."

"And this is Bletilla striata, this is cicada shed..."

The housekeeper recognized all the medicinal herbs in one go.

"Sir, these medicinal materials are fine."

After the butler finished speaking, hesitation appeared on his face again, and he said, "But I don't know if there is any problem with these medicinal materials when combined."

Different medicinal materials will have different effects when combined together. Some of them are not toxic, and even have great tonics. Due to pharmacological problems, they will become highly toxic if they are boiled together.

Some highly toxic substances, because of the pharmacology of mutual generation and restraint, will become a tonic when boiled together.

Therefore, unless you are a powerful alchemist, you will not know whether some medicinal materials are cooked together to play a positive or negative role.

And the butler of the city lord's mansion is obviously not a powerful alchemist.

Actually, if this butler is a powerful alchemist, he will not be a butler, but should work in the royal city or take important positions at the righteous sect.

On the other hand, Tang Hong frowned without a trace after hearing the butler.

If you take medicine without knowing the pharmacology, unexpected situations may occur.

It will even aggravate the death of those infected with the plague.

"Sir, there is no way to solve the plague in the city for the time being. Why not find a few people who are infected with the plague and try my medicine."

"If it succeeds, it is naturally the best. If it fails, the adults can capture me and send me to the upper city prison."

The woman in white robe said slowly without any hurry.

"Sir, I can only try my best to make this plan. If it succeeds, it's the best. If it doesn't succeed, there will be no loss."

"Because those who are infected with the plague will die sooner or later."

When the butler saw Tang Hong hesitating, he stepped forward and said softly.

When Tang Hong heard this, he pondered for a while, and finally nodded.

"Yes, now I can only do this. It will take one or two days to wait for the court to give a countermeasure. In one or two days, many people will die in my city."

"This way, butler, please find a few people who are infected with the plague more severely, then decoct this medicine and let them take it to see how they react."

"Forget it, you'll have to boil these medicinal herbs and let's go and see the effect together."

Tang Hong finally decided to see the effect of decocting these medicinal materials in person so that he could have a clear idea.

"good."

"Then I'll decoct these herbs immediately now."

The housekeeper hurriedly took the medicinal herbs and went down to decoct.

After the butler left, Tang Hong pondered for a moment, then looked at the woman in the white robe in front of him and asked, "This girl, if your medicine really deals with the plague, what kind of reward do you want?"

The world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit.

Tang Hong didn't believe that the woman in white robe had no intentions in front of her.

"I'm not hiding it from the city lord, the little woman is very yearning for the officialdom. I heard that the position of deputy city lord in the city has been vacant for a long time."

At this point, the woman in white robe did not continue to say anything.

But Tang Hong is an old man who has been in the officialdom for many years, so he naturally knows the implication of the woman in white robe.

"Miss, you have a lot of ambitions."

"I actually planned to be the deputy city lord."

Tang Hongwei narrowed his eyes and said.

Shangcheng was also a relatively important county town in the Tang Dynasty. I don’t know how many pairs of eyes stared at the position of deputy city lord.

But for various reasons, Tang Hong didn't know who to recommend to become the deputy city lord of the upper city, so this location has been empty.

"My Lord City, if the medicinal materials I offer can solve the plague, it will definitely be a great achievement. Let me be the deputy city lord, it will not be a loss."

The woman in white robe stretched out her jade hand, picked up the ginseng tea, took a sip, and said slowly.
