With Zhu Lang's order... Chen mustard green braised greens were urgently transported to the epidemic area. In conjunction with the medicines prepared by Zhu Lang, the two medicines were fused together, and the dawn of victory was soon seen.

The first person who had a diseased manure that had drunk the ginger mustard green braised, gradually gained health. As more people with a diseased manure, the people who had drunk the ginger mustard green braised manure, but some of them died directly after drinking it.

Why? Because the ginger mustard green braised green contains penicillin, but some are sensitive to penicillin, so... can only die. But what we need to say here is that the people who die from ginger green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green braised green bra

In this way, the epidemic was controlled strongly.

However... Zhu Lang also knew at this time that this plague was actually just the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. The disasters in Chinese history are not only man-made disasters, but also natural disasters occur frequently.

Some people have counted that from 206 BC to 1949 AD, there were 1,056 droughts and 1,029 floods in the past 2,155 years.

In total, floods and droughts are almost once a year. Others, such as locust plagues, wind plagues, epidemics, earthquake disasters, etc., are endless. China's frequent famines are extremely rare in the world.

Among them, the Ming Dynasty was the highest among all dynasties. According to scientific statistics, a total of 1,159 earthquakes occurred in the Ming Dynasty in 216 years.

Among them, the magnitude 8 earthquake that occurred in Hua County in the 34th year of Jiajing, that is, in 1556, was the most tragic. The earthquake caused more than 830,000 deaths, which should have set a world record for earthquake deaths.

The earthquake occurred late at night, and the impact reached most of China, more than ten provinces, and more than 200 prefectures and counties. The buildings were destroyed immediately, and cracks were everywhere, and even fish and boat boards were poured out. The nearby Weinan County was therefore sunk more than 10 feet away. At that time, Huashan and Zhongnan Mountain were still chirping, and the Yellow River water was clarified for several days.

The Guanzhong earthquake's death toll exceeded the world record is a considerable part of the reason for the flooding caused by earthquakes and large-scale plagues in the disaster area after the flood.

In June of the 37th year of Wanli, Gansu earthquake occurred. More than 840 soldiers and civilians died in Hongjia and Qingshui forts. "The border pier was 870 miles away and the Dongguan area was broken."

In the second year of Tianqi, "In September, Jiayin, Pingliang, Longde counties, Zhenrong, Pinglu places, Ma Gang, Shuangfeng castles, the earthquake was like a slash, destroying city walls of 7,900 feet, more than 1,800 houses, and more than 1,200 men and women were killed."

The death toll reached more than 12,000. Judging from the current situation, this is a very serious disaster.

Just four years later, in the leap month of the sixth year of Tianqi, Lingqiu County started from the fifth day of the sixth month, from 1:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m., with an earthquake in a month, it shook dozens of times day and night. The city walls and houses had already collapsed. Therefore, more than 5,200 residents were killed, and countless merchants were killed.

The early Ming Dynasty was a relatively calm period of earthquake activity. The average probability of earthquakes in the middle and late Ming Dynasty was more than 35%, which is a very high indicator.

It is equivalent to more than three earthquakes occurring every year. Especially in the late Ming Dynasty, the frequency of earthquakes was the highest, with a total of 343 earthquakes occurring in just 50 years. The average probability reaches an astonishing 686%, which is equivalent to nearly seven earthquakes occurring every year.

This is just an earthquake, and there are countless other disasters. In 276 of the Ming Dynasty, there were 1,001 natural disasters, which is an average of 3.6 times a year - and there are constant natural disasters all year round.

"Floods", "droughts", "hail disasters", "wind disasters" and "frost and snow" directly affected by the climate accounted for almost half of the natural disasters in the Ming Dynasty, and "plagues" and "locust plagues" related to "flood disasters" and "droughts" accounted for another 15%.

It is mainly due to the climate problem of the Ming Dynasty. At this time, the Ming Dynasty had already changed to the Little Ice Age. You should know that the long-term cold climate is the most direct impact is precipitation. Some climate theories believe that if the surface temperature drops by 3°, the atmospheric moisture will be reduced by 20%, causing severe drought.

The temperature deviation in the Ming Dynasty did not reach 3°, but it had caused serious irregular precipitation. Not only did drought occur at high rates, but floods were also serious. Moreover, the temperature fluctuated significantly in the Ming Dynasty and had obvious rise and fall processes. This temperature change trend was reflected in the time distribution of drought and flood disasters.

According to modern research on ancient disasters, ancient disasters are given:

Extreme drought: lasting for several months or across quarters, or severe droughts across large areas;

Extreme rain and flooding: boats are on the treetops, and the water depth is several feet;

Extreme Yellow River overflow: The Yellow River is diverted from overflow to blockage for more than one month, with dozens of counties and more than 1 million people affected;

Extreme flood in the Yangtze River: The scope includes most areas in the basin, with a long duration and a depth of several feet;

Extremely large Huaihe River overflow: The scope includes most areas in the basin, lasting more than one month, with a depth of several feet;

From the overall situation of the major floods and disasters in the Ming Dynasty, it can be seen that the severe drought is much more than the severe floods such as rain and floods, and floods. Especially in the 141 years from Jingtai to Chongzhen, the severe droughts reached 70 times, which is five times that of the period from Hongwu to Zhengtong! The severe floods and floods are also far higher than those in the early Ming Dynasty.

Serious secondary disaster

The frequent occurrence of drought and flood disasters will cause particles to be lost, displaced, and the common people to be hungry and cold. However, this is just the beginning of the disaster chain, and they often induce more secondary disasters.

First, avoid the unavoidable locust plague.

Xu Guangqi of the Ming Dynasty regarded the "locust plague" as one of the three major culprits of famine, and pointed out that the locust plagues mostly arise due to the "drought extreme", and the harm is far greater than that of water and drought.

Xu Guangqi's view has been confirmed by modern science. The best place for locusts to lay eggs is soil with a water content of 10%-20%. During drought, water levels subside, and mudflats and exposed riverbeds provide locusts with a place to reproduce. In most cases, locust swarms can lay 4,000 to 5,000 eggs per square meter of soil, with 50 to 80 eggs in each egg block, that is, 200,000 to 400,000 eggs per square meter.

The breeding locust swarms feed on a large number of plants with low moisture content, grow rapidly, and then breed again, and then fly to other places to find sufficient food to continue to reproduce. This vicious cycle will cause the originally small-scale drought to spread into large-scale famine, and farmland, pasture and even leaves will be gnawed by the locust swarm.

Second, the terrible plague.

There are many reasons for the outbreak of plague, which often become an important secondary disaster for drought and flood disasters. Moreover, it is far more lethal than drought and flood disasters, and the difficulty of rescue is also higher.

During drought and flood disasters, food shortages, homes are dilapidated, displaced people do not cover their clothes, eat to fill hunger, and their immunity is greatly reduced. In addition, during drought and flood disasters, temperature changes drastically, and various sources of infection arise, which can easily cause plague.

First of all, let’s look at floods. It is very pathogenic. Once a flood occurs, it is difficult for people to obtain a clean water source. Moreover, when floods rise, bacteria may roll up from the epidemic area or deep soil to quickly infect people. At the same time, the bodies of humans and animals drowned in floods are difficult to quickly bury, and they are prone to rot and breed various bacteria and mosquitoes, becoming sources of infection.

The second is drought, which is also the high incidence of the epidemic. Droughts are often accompanied by high temperatures. People and livestock lack water sources. Although they will not be frozen, they will die of heatstroke. A large number of corpses quickly rot under high temperatures, breeding and spreading various dangerous bacteria. In addition, drought and flood disasters will aggravate the disaster of rats, and this important source of disease transmission further accelerates the spread of the epidemic.

The most terrifying thing is the "combination punch" of "drought plague, locust plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague, plague,

Moreover, when disasters break out, there are always evil people who make a fortune in the country. They either embezzle the storage of disaster preparedness, directly greed for disaster relief money and food, faked selling goods, or hoarded materials for sale at a price, and regarded natural disasters as a great opportunity to fill their own pockets.

Zhu Lang is a time traveler. He knew very well the disasters in the future and what the people of the Ming Dynasty would face, so Zhu Lang wrote a 30,000-word table, asking Zhu Yuanzhang to prepare for the future.

First, we should build water conservancy to prevent problems before they happen.

Disaster prevention is the best choice. Eliminate the causes of natural disasters from the source and greatly reduce the chance of outbreaks. Natural disasters are not completely inevitable, especially in the Ming Dynasty.

The most serious disaster in the Ming Dynasty was drought and flood, and they were also the most likely to cure all disasters.

Plagues are invisible and locust plagues are uncertain, but most of them are caused by drought and flood. If drought and flood disasters are eliminated, plagues and locust plagues can be reduced a lot;

Drought and flood disasters are nothing more than precipitation. Although people cannot control the amount and distribution of precipitation, they can adjust the uneven distribution of precipitation by developing water conservancy.

When heavy rainstorms suddenly fall and sea tides flood, you can use a dam to prevent blockage; if there is no rain for a long time, the water accumulated before can be leaked out.

Zhu Lang required that the Ministry of Industry set up a water department under the Ministry of Industry to lead the national water conservancy work and divide it into two categories: "transfer to the grain" and "irrigation of fields". It also clarified water conservancy facilities such as gates and dams and dams to achieve water storage during floods and water discharge during droughts.

In addition, ordinary people across the country can put forward suggestions on water conservancy construction. Students from the Imperial College are also needed to send students from Imperial College to supervise and repair water conservancy facilities across the country. This can be said to be "applying what you have learned" and cultivating water conservancy talents in practice.

Second, prepare for the future and prepare for emergencies.

"If you are idle, if you are busy, you will use it." The people all know that important materials need to be prepared in advance, not to mention the country's wasteland.

After the disaster occurred, the most needed materials were food. In the Ming Dynasty, grain was stored through the "preparation warehouse" system and disaster preparation was implemented.

The reserve warehouse is in charge of the Ministry of Revenue. The specific setting of the reserve warehouse is the responsibility of local prefectures and county officials. Each prefecture and county sets up four reserve warehouses in southeast, west and northeast to select local elderly and reliable public management.

There are many sources of grain in the reserve warehouse. First, encourage wealthy people to donate grain and give them the title of "righteous people" and other rewards; second, directly store official grain, or purchase grain at the expense of official land rent, tax deeds, official silver, etc.; third, confiscate the stolen money and confiscate the criminal's property.

If someone dares to embezzle the rice and grain in the reserve warehouse, Zhu Lang's request is to kill the nine clans. This killing of the nine clans has aroused many people's dissatisfaction, thinking that it is a bit too strict. However, Zhu Lang insists on extorting the public and wants to kill the nine clans. No clan can be missing, and whoever dares to move will kill.

Zhu Lang followed Zhu Lang to propose foreign warehouses. The so-called foreign warehouses are Luzon, Annan, Chameng... and other overseas countries. Zhu Lang demanded that before the 20th year of Hongwu, all these small countries around the Ming Dynasty should be subdued and made them the Ming Dynasty's outer warehouses. If the disaster in the Ming Dynasty was too serious and the reserve warehouse was ineffective, then the foreign warehouse would be directly activated.

The third is the postman... During the Hongwu period, there was no time limit for reporting disasters. On the one hand, it was because there were garrisons everywhere in the early Ming Dynasty and the disaster preparedness was sufficient, so the central government often did not need to concentrate its efforts on disaster relief. On the other hand, local officials did not dare not report it. Once the disaster was concealed, local elders had the right to appeal directly to Zhu Yuanzhang Lianming, and officials who concealed the reports were executed directly.

During the Hongzhi period, the government orders were not as open as the Hongwu period. In order not to delay disaster relief, it was required that summer disasters should not be later than May and autumn disasters should not be reported later than September. If the disaster situation is not reported in time or there are behaviors such as concealment, exaggeration, and favoritism, the Ministry of Revenue will hold him accountable.

So how to judge whether the disaster situation reported by local governments is accurate? The Ming Dynasty also had a special "disaster survey" system.

In fact, there are two main purposes for reporting disaster situations. One is to apply to the central government for disaster relief, and the other is to reduce taxes, relief loans and other post-disaster reconstruction work. The central government needs to request the emperor based on the actual disaster situation, whether to reduce taxes, how much taxes are reduced, and how much funds are provided. These are all major events related to the national finances.

Therefore, it is necessary to conduct disaster surveys and on-site inspections of the scope of the impact of the disaster, record the names of the affected families, fields, hectares of acres, and the number of taxed grains, and explain the actual disaster losses.

At first, this work was responsible for the local prefecture officials, and after the materials were reported, the Ministry of Revenue sent someone to review it. In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the governors, the inspectors, the local inspectors and other departments gradually participated. From this method of coordinated supervision by multiple parties, it can be seen that the administrative agencies in the middle and late Ming Dynasty were superimposed and redundant, inefficient, and corruption had reached a very serious point, and the central government could not trust the supervision of the individual party.

Therefore, Zhu Lang suggested that the Jinyiwei directly investigate the disaster...it must be fast, ruthless and accurate...it must be recorded in the case and sent back to the court, so that the court can have a quick response time and avoid displaced people.

And Zhu Lang proposed the ancient official "loan" and "relief loans".

Just like today's student loans and agricultural loans, relief "loans" are provided by the authorities.

Although the people were free from danger and exempted from taxes, they lost their means of production. Farmers had no seeds, farm tools and oxen, and were unable to engage in agricultural production normally. Various handicraft workshops also needed various tools.

There are also policies to target corruption later. Corruption is the enemy of wasteland, and like natural disasters, it cannot be completely eliminated. It can only be minimized through supervision means.

There are two main types of corruption in wasteland: one is inaction, and the other is to use natural disasters to fill your own pockets. It also includes lazy government and slackness and making great fortunes in the country.

Zhu Lang proposed that the Censorate send out the inspectors from time to time to participate in disaster investigation, water conservancy inspection, and warehousing supervision.

After writing all of it, more than 30,000 words were written, and less than a day after the 30,000 words were put on the table, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and was accurate!
