Chapter 449: Yazhou


The group of students who went to build the bridge on Henan Road have not returned yet.

I heard that after the gentry over there saw with their own eyes several reinforced concrete bridges that had been completed, they renewed their request and asked the road construction team to build reinforced concrete bridges at several ferry crossings that were not originally planned to be built.

The officials responsible for road construction came back after writing documents on this matter.

After some discussion, the officials in the court approved the construction of several bridges.

This matter was brought up in a small court.

Luo Yong's official rank was too low and he was not a regular official, so he did not participate in that discussion.

However, someone later informed Luo Yong that his few disciples and Those students from the Engineering and Machinery Workshops may have to stay on Henan Road for a few more months.

I heard that during the Umrah, after approving the construction of these bridges, the saint said that by the next spring, these bridges should be completed, and then he would take advantage of the railway tracks to go for a tour.

Jiangnan.

The ministers heard this and hurriedly persuaded him.

Considering that the saint has been in poor health in the past two years and has had many inconveniences when going out, everyone is afraid that something will go wrong.

Furthermore, when the emperor goes on tour to mobilize troops, it not only costs a lot of money, but also has many safety problems.

In other palaces around the capital, It's okay to go around, but as Jiangnan is so far away, many things are a bit difficult to control.

As a result, the saint became angry and complained to a group of ministers.

He said that he had worked hard over the years and never slackened off.

Now that the country was peaceful and the people were at peace, he wanted to go to Jiangnan to visit, but these ministers refused to let him go.

This is true.

The current saint has indeed never slackened in his work since he ascended the throne.

He is even known in history as a wise king who is good at accepting advice.

However, the evaluation of this wise king is only achieved after a lot of effort and price.

In recent years, there has been a lot of talk in the court, and ministers and ministers are very brave to speak out.

Generally, even if they say something wrong, it will not be a big deal.

At most, they will have no hope of promotion, and it is unheard of to lose their heads.

Under such circumstances, he will inevitably have to listen to a lot of things he doesn't like to hear.

Not only must he listen, but he must also tolerate it.

Now that he is older, he often has to find people to complain to, so he can do it and everyone can listen.

Yes, but some people don't want to let go of anything, no matter how big or small it is, and they have to fight with him everywhere.

In Luo Yong's opinion, this is really unnecessary.

After all, the emperor is also a human being, and his life is indeed not easy.

In the past few days, Sun Simiao went to the palace to treat the saint.

When he returned, he heard that Luo Yong was at the Wannian County Government House that day, so he stopped by to find him and say a few words.

Mainly because he has read a lot of books and done a lot of research in the past few years.

However, due to limited conditions, he always encounters various difficulties and always feels that this doesn't make sense and that doesn't make sense, which makes the old man a little impatient.

Luo Yong advised him not to rush and to take everything slowly.

"I'm already this old, I still have a few more years to wait," Mr.

Sun also complained.

"You still have a lot of money these days."

Luo Yong said with a smile.

Historically, when Li Zhi became emperor, this old man was still alive and well, and lived for many years.

Sun Simiao was also quite busy at the moment.

After chatting with Luo Yong for a few words, he set off back to Zhongnan Mountain.

He didn't mention the saint's condition, and Luo Yong didn't ask.

Sun Simiao has been living in Zhongnan Mountain in recent years and no longer travels around the world.

Many people want to see him for medical treatment, so they go to Zhongnan Mountain.

From time to time, the palace would invite him to come over to treat the saint.

He has become more talkative in the past two years.

Generally, if it is said that he is treating the prince, he will come.

He is not like he used to be able to hide and push away.

At the end of this summer, Sun Simiao also did a big thing at Zhongnanshan Medical Center.

There was a fellow Taoist with whom he often discussed knowledge and studied elixirs and Taoism.

He already had three children.

At the end of winter last year, his wife turned out to be pregnant again, and they had a son.

Also very happy.

But when the pregnancy gradually became apparent, an experienced midwife told the two of them that the appearance of the fetus was not good and that the fetus might be dangerous, so it was better to take medicine and abort it as soon as possible.

The two of them were so happy, how could they be willing to put it off again and again.

The bigger the belly got, the more they could tell something was wrong.

All the doctors and midwives who had seen it said that the pregnancy was too dangerous.

So the two of them went to Zhongnan Mountain to seek medical treatment.

At that time, the fetus in the abdomen was already large, the pregnant woman was quite old, and forced abortion was also dangerous.

After weighing the two factors, they finally decided to take the risk and give birth.

At the end of summer, this woman gave birth to a baby in Zhongnan Mountain.

The birth process did not go smoothly, but the baby was finally born safely, and the woman was also fine.

Not long after, there were rumors among the people that the baby was delivered by caesarean section, and that the woman had a three-inch-long incision on her belly, which was left after giving birth at that time.

Zhongnanshan Medical Center handled this matter very low-key and deliberately publicized it.

When people asked about it, they often said that this method of giving birth was quite dangerous and should not be imitated.

However, this did not stop many families from flocking to Zhongnan Mountain with pregnant women, especially those who were told by the doctors and midwives that the pregnancy was dangerous and difficult to give birth to, so they wanted to go even more.

Although the method of caesarean section was considered very dangerous and terrifying by the people of the time, in this era, it is inherently dangerous for women to give birth.

Once they cannot give birth naturally, they will often lose their lives.

Sometimes, adults or children can barely be saved.

Sometimes it is often necessary to kill two people.

Under such circumstances, many people are willing to try anything that can increase their chance of survival.

Moreover, Sun Simiao was also well-known as a miracle doctor.

His early cure for cowpox gave him a high reputation among the people, and everyone at that time believed in his medical skills.

Now that these people have gone to Zhongnan Mountain, it is natural for Sun Simiao and his disciples not to just stand by and watch during the time of life and death.

Later, they helped several women give birth by caesarean section.

Years ago, Ma Feiyang, whom he had not seen for a long time, returned from Jiangnan and came to Luo's courtyard as a guest.

Luo Yong asked someone to prepare a table of food and wine to entertain him.

After drinking and eating, they leaned on the fire pit in the hall and talked, and they mentioned the medical center in Zhongnan Mountain.

"There is a shop owner's daughter-in-law on our street who said earlier that the fetus was not in good condition, so she went to Zhongnan Mountain to give birth."

Ma Feiyang said.

"But it was a dissection."

Aunt Luo has also been quite concerned about these things recently.

"Cut it open."

Ma Feiyang replied: "I heard from the women in the neighborhood that there was a centipede-like scar on her belly, as long as a finger."

Ma Feiyang stretched out his hand to gesture as he spoke.

Although this person has not seen the Luo family for a long time, he now comes to visit and sits with Aunt Luo and others talking.

He looks very comfortable.

He is still the familiar person he used to be, but his speech and behavior are a bit more sophisticated than before.

Very stable.

"You know the details very well, but you are asking for your wife's help," Aunt Luo teased him.

"She absolutely refuses to have another baby.

She is even more frightened when it comes to having her belly cut open."

Ma Feiyang waved his hands repeatedly.

Ma Feiyang and his wife met when they were harvesting tea leaves in the south of the Yangtze River.

His wife also came from a merchant family.

The two of them knew each other the first time they met, and they became very affectionate after their marriage.

The two of them also had a daughter, who was about the same age as Fei'er.

On this day, Ma Feiyang boasted to Aunt Luo and others about how powerful his daughter was.

They really took the strengths of the two of them, and the advantages that Ye Niang had.

She learned it all.

The aunt told him not to brag, but to bring the young lady another day and ask her to have a fight with Fei'er to see who is stronger.

These few words made Qiniang and the others very happy.

Fei'er also sat aside, clapped her little hands and laughed.

After spending most of the day at Luo's house, Ma Feiyang talked to Luo Yong about some business matters before leaving.

The two most profitable industries of the Ma family now are the trading of eucommia gum and tea.

Most of the tea leaves are bought raw tea for processing, and they often buy it in stock.

Most of the eucommia gum is produced by their own manor.

Over the years, the Ma family has A lot of Eucommia gum manors have been invested in Shannan Road.

This time Luo Yong told him that when he was traveling before, he heard from the merchant who was transporting goods that there was grass in the north that could produce glue.

The locals called it glue grass, but he didn't know whether it was true or not.

After Ma Feiyang returned, he repeated Luo Yong's words to his father.

After hearing this, his father thought carefully for a while and said: "It's not necessarily that gum grass.

Luo Sanlang has warned us, and I think there is a reason for it.

I'm afraid the business of eucommia gum won't last very long."

Ma Feiyang's father thought that Luo Yong must know something, but he couldn't tell it clearly, so he used Jiaocao as an excuse.

After all, the North is remote and cold, and it is difficult to grow crops there in Datang.

Since they cannot be grown here, how can rubber grass replace Eucommia ulmoides?

His guess was somewhat close to the truth.

The glue-producing grass did exist, but the glue it produced was very soft and it was afraid of the sun, so it might not be able to replace Eucommia gum.

In fact, what can really bring an impact to the Eucommia gum industry is rubber.

Rubber trees originally grew in the Amazon plains of South America.

The American continent had not been discovered by people on the Eurasian continent at this time.

Logically speaking, Luo Yong should not know the existence of rubber trees now, so he excused rubber grass and did not mention it. rubber.

In the past two years, shipping between the East and the West has developed greatly, and there is a compass.

According to this situation, it should be a matter of time before the American continent is discovered.

But in any case, the business of Eucommia gum should not be a problem in another ten to twenty years.

The growth of trees requires cycles.

Even if someone discovers rubber trees now, large-scale planting will not be achieved overnight.

Rubber trees like hot and humid weather.

In the 21st century, the two most important production areas in China were Hainan and Yunnan.

At this time, Yunnan was not the territory of the Tang Dynasty, but belonged to Tubo.

Nowadays, the main places that can be developed to plant rubber are Yazhou and Jiaozhou.

Yazhou is in Hainan, and Jiaozhou is in Vietnam in later generations.

These two places are now very remote places of exile.

Once you go ten thousand miles, you will never return a thousand miles.

Where is Yazhou, where is the gate of hell?

This is a poem from the mid-Tang Dynasty, which describes the pain of being exiled to Yazhou.

If people can really find rubber in the next few years and promote its planting in Yazhou, Jiaozhou and other places, then by the time of the Mid-Tang Dynasty, Yazhou may no longer be the same Yazhou. gd1806102:
