I am engaged in construction in Datang

Xianyang County.

Liu Mansion.

Zheng Wen honestly worked for Liu Shen for several days, helping him look at the account books and checking the data.

"Master Wen, I heard that you studied mathematics before?"

"That's right." Zheng Wen smiled bitterly. "But I didn't see much future in Ming Suan, so I switched to Ming Jing. But who knew..."

"Master Wen, can you tell if there is something wrong with this account?"

Liu Shen smiled and said, "I was just a farmer before, and I couldn't understand all these things."

"It's possible that my subordinates will try to fool me."

"This..." Zheng Wen pretended to be anxious, sweat on his forehead, but he couldn't help cursing the other party in his heart.

Who are you insulting?

Who dares to fool you?

Why has the servant who served as your son's horse a few days ago disappeared these days?

"It's okay, Master Wen, just speak frankly."

Zheng Wen squeezed his sleeves and said slowly: "Mr. Liu, please look at this part of the account..."

Half an hour later.

Liu Shen smiled and sighed: "Such fake accounts can't be hidden from Master Wen."

As he spoke, two big men came up behind him.

"Master Wen, can you do me a small favor?"

"..."Zheng Wen, is it too late to escape now?

……

Li Yin took the secret letter from Xianyang, opened it and read it carefully.

"Zheng Wen is missing?"

Uncle Sanxi was grinding ink on the side. The owner of the manor would definitely write back and make arrangements soon.

"Old Man Wang said that Zheng Wen has been out of contact for several days."

"Is there anyone else in the Liu Mansion?"

"Yes." Feng Sanxi continued, "And the Liu family needs a lot of food."

"There is no maid in the mansion, and we rarely buy fresh fruits and vegetables. Almost all of them are prepared and delivered by Old Man Wang."

"I asked someone to calculate their daily food consumption, the amount of swill and samsara objects they process, and confirmed that Master Zheng has not been transferred yet."

"A cunning rabbit has three burrows." Li Yin picked up the pen and dipped it in ink: "They probably have bases in the counties around Chang'an, in order to confuse others' sight."

"Unfortunately... the mining area is difficult to move."

"Uncle Sanxi, check where the coal used in the steel plant is collected from." Li Yin lowered her head and thought for a moment: "Send someone to protect Old Man Wang and his family. The other party might want to overturn the table."

Feng Sanxi wrote it down and said, "Master, the Ministry of Works has sent some skilled craftsmen, and they are waiting outside the manor."

Li Yin's eyes lit up: "Finally she's here. The daylilies I've been waiting for are now cold."

These craftsmen were all skilled artisans affiliated with the government and had served the court for generations.

If she wanted to build a military equipment park, she would definitely choose this type of craftsmen, who would live in the park with their families and would not go out on weekdays.

Li Yin will arrange all the living facilities for them, including commercial areas, entertainment areas, medical clinics, school areas, etc.

Who dares to let the craftsmen who produce guns and explosives run around freely?

Lu Zhen's range of activities has now been restricted. Once he disappears, all official roads and surrounding counties will be blocked immediately.

When the park is completed, he will also move in.

For this matter, Li Shimin specially approved a large piece of land, invested hundreds of thousands of strings of cash, and even gave up the idea of ​​replacing the old weapons in the army.

"Uncle Sanxi, how is Gaochang doing?"

"Qu Wentai was as ruthless and decisive as ever. In August, he ordered his people to breed lambs and restrict cattle and horses from eating grass in exchange for our dynasty's luxury goods such as perfume, glass jewelry, and soap, which he then sold to the Western Regions at high prices."

"In addition to collecting large amounts of gold and silver treasures from the Western Regions, they also imported large amounts of livestock fodder in an attempt to supply domestic demand."

"In January next year, a new batch of lambs will be born in Gaochang, and in February, colts will be born." Li Yin calculated the time and found that March and April next year will be the most difficult time for Gaochang.

Countless mouths are crying for food, but the tender grass has not yet grown to maturity.

Li Yin said: "The royal family of the Western Regions will not be so foolish as to cooperate directly with us. They would rather buy luxury goods from Gaochang that are several times more expensive than to buy things from us at a low price."

Feng Sanxi paused while grinding ink, lowered his head and thought: "They are nourishing Gaochang."

"Once Gaochang is destroyed, they will have to face the iron cavalry of the Tang Dynasty."

"Qu Wentai also understood these principles, so after he got the method of making karez, he started to make bold moves."

Feng Sanxi sighed: "This man has a big appetite and a big courage."

Li Yin laughed and said, "The Western Regions don't know that Gaochang has the Karez, so they are not afraid of Gaochang's success. In the eyes of those Turkic people, Qu Wentai is just a fool who is arrogant and starts to show off his muscles as soon as he gets some skills."

"Qu Wentai blocked the throat of the Silk Road, preventing merchants from the Western Regions from coming to the Tang Dynasty and charging high tolls. This was not a big loss for the Western Regions."

The Tang Dynasty was an exporter of luxury goods. Given the current economic structure, a trade surplus can bring together more wealth.

"Of course, these are the royal family's ideas. Merchants don't care about that."

"Uncle Sanxi, send this letter to Mr. Zhuochuan in Karl City."

"I heard that Mr. Zhuochuan and Ms. Zhuoya are getting married soon, so we, the women's village, must prepare a gift to send to them."

……

Around November 11, tuberculosis patients began to enter Beijing.

Each of their teams was accompanied by one or two fully armed yamen runners as guards. These yamen runners were from their own county and had followed them all the way.

The yamen runners were paid two or three strings of cash for this trip. The Medical Research Institute summoned the patients to Beijing, and Chang'an University was responsible for paying the expenses.

The brave yamen runners scrambled to sign up.

The newspaper clearly explains the pathology and causes of tuberculosis, and also explains how to prevent and treat it. How could there be any danger?

This is the third phase of drug trials, and medical schools need a large number of cases for screening. Only when a certain level of safety is guaranteed can we enter the fourth phase for full promotion.

Due to backward technology, even if Li Yin tries her best to ensure the safety of the drug production environment, there will always be things that are not taken care of.

The planned site of the First Affiliated Hospital of Chang'an University.

Countless emergency wooden houses have been built here. In order to ensure the indoor temperature, coal is added to the stove as if it were free.

Xiaoxia was wearing a gown and a mask, and was followed by several young ladies.

Li Qianxiu was there too.

Guangguang's condition is no longer contagious. He just needs to take medicine on time. After a checkup in two or three months, he will be completely cured.

Now is not the time for farming, and Guangguang has her father at home to take care of her, so she doesn't need to worry too much.

"After taking the pills, you may experience fever, nausea, vomiting, etc. If you feel any discomfort, please tell the medical staff in time to avoid irreversible consequences."

"Is there anyone who wants to give up on this drug trial?" Li Xiaoxia looked at the two patients in the room with a sincere look.

These are the things they have to make clear.

The patients on the bed looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time: "Doctor Xiaoxia, if we don't eat, we'll die. So what's the point of nausea and vomiting!"

"Yes, I feel that I am taking advantage of the women's farm. How can you give people money for medicine?"

"Because this is a drug trial, there may be some risks that are uncontrollable."

Li Xiaoxia smiled and said, "We can't let you feel unsure about the situation in the village."

After no objection is raised, a contract will be signed. Although there is no formal notary office nowadays, Nuzhuang will arrange everything that is necessary.
