Capítulo 109: Could it be a mistake?
"Could it be a mistake? How could this cow be infected with mad cow disease? Veterinarian Zhao, please take another good look."
The village chief's family heard what Veterinarian Zhao said, but his wife couldn't believe that her own cows would get sick, and it was the contagious mad cow disease.
Looking at Veterinarian Zhao with expectation, and seeing him shaking his head, her hopes were dashed. The village head's wife couldn't help crying, and her two daughters-in-law also started wiping their tears. Everyone looked as if they had lost their parents. Losing a working cow is a heavy burden that even for the village chief cannot bear. It is a huge blow to the family and the loss is devastating.
"What should we do? Can it be cured?" The village chief's wife couldn't help but ask again. She thought that if it couldn't be cured a few years ago, maybe it can be cured now.
"I have no way," Veterinarian Zhao shook his head. Although herbs can prolong life for a period of time, it will not last too long and will eventually lead to death, so there is no need at all.
"Husband," the village chief's wife, was still unwilling to give up and placed her hopes on the child's father.
Village chief Ma shook his head at his wife. He knew that the cow could not be saved for sure and he did not dare to save it. If the epidemic got worse due to his selfishness, not only would he lose his position as village chief, he might even be sent to jail. Now he is worried that other livestock in the family may also be infected. He immediately looked at Veterinarian Zhao and said, "Brother Zhao, please help me take a look at the other livestock at home." With heavy steps, he took Veterinarian Zhao to the other half of the yard.
Veterinarian Zhao felt relieved when he saw a large open space between the two animal sheds. If there has been no close contact, the possibility of being infected at such a long distance is very small.
The first two pigs were checked, and everything was normal, with no signs of infection found. However, there seemed to be something wrong with the three sheep penned on one side. They were a little irritable and uneasy when he approached them. One of them even had some signs of slight shaking. If nothing unexpected happened, the three sheep should have been infected as well.
"Are the sheep let out every day?" Veterinarian Zhao frowned as he looked at the road passing by the cowshed.
"Yes, we let them out to eat grass every morning." Village chief Ma did not dare to hide the truth, nor could he bear the responsibility of hiding it.
"I'm afraid they were also infected. They must have been infected accidentally when passing by the cowshed."
Upon hearing this, Village Chief Ma's face turned pale. The three sheep had already grown up and could be sold soon, so how could they have been infected? Village Chief Ma looked at Veterinarian Zhao solemnly, then pointed at the two pigs and asked, "Where are they?"
"The two pigs looked fine, with no signs of infection found."
Village chief Ma finally felt a little comforted. Fortunately, the livestock in his family were not completely wiped out. He also understand that the reason the two pigs were not infected was because they had never left the pigsty and the distance was far enough. It was a blessing in disguise. The chickens and ducks at home were also checked, and the confinement conditions were good, with no signs of infection found.
After the inspection of all livestock and poultry was completed, Inspector Wang already had an idea in mind and immediately ordered the village chief and his family not to allow anyone to approach the cowshed and sheepfold except for giving water and feeding. If there was lime at home, they should quickly sprinkle it on the ground to disinfect it. He also ordered the accompanying inspectors to work with veterinarian Zhao and the village chief to inspect all the livestock and poultry in Huima Village before dark.
The workload for the entire village seems to be huge, but in reality there is not much. There are only a few households in Huima Village that can own large livestock, and even fewer that can afford to raise pigs. The rest have small poultry. After leaving the people behind, Inspector Wang drove back to the town residence without stopping, found the head of Yishan Town, and told him the shocking news.
"Are you serious?" The head of the village was so frightened that he jumped up from his armchair, his eyes wide open, he couldn't believe what he heard.
"Can such a thing be joked about? The dead cow is still lying on the main road. Veterinarian Zhao has confirmed it and is now returning to Macun for inspection." Wang Zong's face was serious.
"How could this be?" The village head still couldn't believe it. The news was too sudden and he needed to drink some tea to calm down. The head of the village quickly drank the tea in his hand in one gulp, and only then did he feel better.
Wang Zong: "Zhang Lizheng, although I am the inspector, I am only responsible for the peace and stability of Yishan Town. The epidemic problem still depends on you, Lizheng. Hurry up and come up with a set of regulations. It would be best if all the livestock and poultry in the villages of Yishan Town were inspected, disinfected, isolated, and recorded in a short period of time. The most important thing is to seal off the town. I will instruct my subordinates, and the rest is up to you, Lizheng. I will immediately set off to the county town to report this news to the county magistrate. The rest of the specific actions will be decided by the county magistrate."
Although he was discussing it with the head of the village, Wang Zong had already outlined almost everything that needed to be done right now. Among those who can hold the position of village head, only a few are really foolish.
Zhang Lizheng dared not underestimate the infectious disease like mad cow disease. If things went wrong, all the livestock in Yishan Town would be infected, which would be a devastating disaster. If it were to be transmitted to humans, the tragedy of a few years ago would be repeated. Thinking of this, Zhang Lizheng's heart tightened, and then he nodded, and discussed the specific rules with Wang Zong with a serious expression.
Half an hour later, Wang Zong left the town residence on a fast horse. He only had time to go home to say hello. He took the dry food prepared for him by his family and left Yishan Town overnight on horseback, galloping towards Jiaocheng.
In short, thanks to the appearance of Gulan, the little butterfly effect, Yishan Town was able to quickly contain the epidemic when it first appeared, thus avoiding a lifetime of tragedy.
Gulan didn't know all this. All she could see on the light screen were things surrounding the little bun. Some of them were not even very clear. She could only vaguely know how some events were developing.
Jiaocheng.
A horse-drawn carriage sped towards Xiaohe Village in Mohe Town in the night and finally stopped outside a house in the village. The person in the carriage came out, and it was Su Qiaoxiu who appeared in the ruined temple. After paying the last bit of money to the driver, the cart quickly drove into the darkness and disappeared into Xiaohe Village.
Su Qiaoxiu stood outside her house, walking back and forth in hesitation, twisting her hands. She didn't know what to do at this moment. The money that her parents had saved for her brother to take the exam was squandered by her. She thought that after saving the man, how could he be short of money with his status? Then she would return the money to her parents with interest.
But who knew that the development of things was beyond her expectations. Not to mention people, she didn't even see a rabbit, so much so that she couldn't help but doubt that this was just a dream.
But this dream was too real. She had it almost every night, even when she was in the carriage. Although she couldn't remember some fragments clearly, the place names that appeared in it, even as small as towns and villages, she deliberately asked around this time when she went out, and found that they were all correct.
She really knew nothing about these things. Before this trip, the farthest she had been was to a town with her mother to deliver embroidery. How could she know the names of places a hundred or two hundred miles away? This was simply inexplicable. Su Qiaoxiu felt like she was going crazy.

d_zhy I actually feel sorry for him. If she didn't focus on saving the prince, getting rich from it and just focused on other opportunities based on the dream's clues, she would have been able to get rich without having to rely only on the prince's favor.
