Chapter 182 Confidentiality
Zhao Bing gave Hao Yuntong a favor, of course it means to win over it, but it is not all...? �
?
Hao Yuntong can be said to be supported by him. Although his ability is limited, he has always been dedicated to serving him in front of him. However, those "newcomers" despise him and exclude him. In Zhao Bing's view, it is just a slap in the face and embarrassing him. But now it is time to use people and cannot be beaten to death with one stick. Therefore, consolidating his position with a prescription can be said to be small in profit.
At the same time, Zhao Bing strictly ordered Hao Yuntong to keep the prescription confidential and strictly prohibit the spread of the drug. Miasma has been a fearful existence since ancient times. Malaria is susceptible to infection, low cure rate and high mortality rate often discourage people, which is also the reason why the Lingnan region of China has been unable to be opened for a long time. This is the case in the world, and the same is true in Africa, which is also a high-malarity area.
In the fifteenth century, Portugal was in full swing, and King Manuel I, the "lucky man" sent an expedition to traverse the Gambia River in West Africa to explore the "center of darkness". However, the expedition only returned safely, and the others were all left on the African land by the disease. So much so that later historian John de Baros lamented: "God sent an angel to wield the sword of flames of fatal fever to prevent us from entering the clear spring in this garden, from which the golden river flowed into the sea we had conquered many times."
In the hundreds of years since then, malaria kept European adventurers away, preventing them from going deep into the "Dark Great 6" until Europeans extracted the special drug quinine for malaria from the cinchona tree in the Americas. Even so, within a quarter of Africa was still unexplored. Dean Swift once described the dilemma of people drawing this dark Great 6: "On the map of Africa, geographers used wild animals to fill the gaps. Therefore, for the uninhabitable Qiuyuan, elephants were filled with a lack of towns."
Therefore, malaria is not only a bad disease that harms humanity, but also can stop the invaders' footsteps. Now the Mongols' iron hooves have stepped on the land of Lingnan, and they will enter Hainan Island next. Zhao Bing also knew that the Mongols would start a war to conquer Jiaozhi and Chameng within a few years. Although the two countries forced the surrender, only more than 10,000 troops sent out successively came back alive, and the rest were thrown into the tropical jungle. Malaria was the biggest killer.
Zhao Bing thought that if he made public the treatment of malaria, the Mongols would definitely know. Artemisia annua is everywhere in Jiangnan, and it is not a scarce resource. He has nowhere to control it. While benefiting mankind, he also helped the evildoer, indirectly helped the enemy and eliminated himself. Therefore, the safest way is to cut it off from the root, so that others could not know the secret, and at the same time fulfilled the friendship between the monarch and the ministers with Hao Yuntong. However, he was still a little nervous, thinking that his mind was too narrow-minded and did not consider the health of the vast majority of people on the earth...
"Director Hao, although Artemisia annua treats malaria, it is still difficult to avoid transmission and is difficult to cure. Therefore, you have to do a few more things!" Zhao Bing knew that malaria is transmitted through mosquito bites, so only by cutting off the infection path can more people be infected.
"Your Highness just give me orders!" Hao Yuntong had just received a great gift, and there was no way to be careless, so he said.
"Miscity is caused by the gathering of mosquitoes, so if you want to avoid getting infected, you can only try to eliminate mosquitoes." Zhao Bing thought for a while and tried to express his meaning in language that the "ancient people" could understand.
"Your Highness, mosquitoes are worth trillions of dollars. If you want to get rid of them all, you will never be able to do it!" Hao Yuntong immediately felt bitter when he heard this. The number of mosquitoes was huge, flying around, without a trace. How could he have the ability to get rid of them all.
"Don't worry, I haven't let you kill all the mosquitoes in the world!" Zhao Bing smiled, thinking to himself, don't talk about you, even if a person dies, mosquitoes may not die. It's a joke.
"Oh, what Your Highness means..." Hao Yuntong breathed a sigh of relief, secretly glad that His Highness understood the truth and did not let him do this big thing.
"I ask you if you have a prescription to drive away mosquitoes to prevent them from being bitten?"
"Your Highness, this is not difficult. My subordinates know a variety of things. As long as they are made into sachets, they can drive away mosquitoes. My subordinates can offer them at any time!" This is relatively simple, Hao Yuntong replied immediately.
"There are any other ways to avoid being bitten by mosquitoes?" Hainan Island does not have winter, and there are mosquitoes all year round, and now it is rainy season and mosquitoes are even more rampant.
"Your Highness, you can equip military soldiers with curtains to prevent bites, and you can also repel mosquitoes by burning mugwort. Some flowers and plants can also drive away mosquitoes!" Hao Yuntong thought for a while and replied.
"Very good. You can write a note when you go back and report to the Department of Production. I will hold the departments to discuss and implement it. It may also fall into your medical hospital at that time!" Zhao Bing said.
"Does Your Highness mean that it is imitating the fact that it is forbidden to drown everywhere in Jiazi Town?" Hao Yuntong asked with a smile.
"That's right, I'll charge you, you fire your guns, and then we will order the entire army to implement it!" Zhao Bing also smiled. It seemed that this guy was still a bit politically wise, so he could understand it at all.
"I obey the order. If your highness does not give me the order, I will surrender!" Hao Yuntong got the plan and bowed to salute.
"Then I'll be in trouble!" Zhao Bing waved his hand and signaled that he could leave...
The next day, Hao Yuntong, the head of the Medical Hospital, wrote a letter to the General Secretary for the General Secretary saying that the miasma epidemic in the army was raging, causing hundreds of soldiers to get infected. At this time, people were panic and the army was in turmoil. He asked His Highness to take measures as soon as possible to prevent the spread of miasma and stabilize the morale of the army. After receiving the report, Zhao Bing summoned officials from various departments to the mansion that night to discuss matters and agree on the measures. Hao Yuntong said first that the Medical Bureau had found out that the miasma epidemic was caused by the human being bitten by mosquitoes and was infected with miasma. At present, while actively treating patients, we must do a good job of prevention to prevent the army from continuing to be infected.
