It was getting hotter and hotter.
Even at dusk, the temperature didn't drop. On the contrary, it felt even more stuffy.
The chirping of the cicadas sounded noisy at first, but after a while, it gradually became background music.
The dogs in Zhuangzi were lying there lazily. When they heard someone approaching and talking, they would perk up their ears and open their eyes slightly. Then, they would close their eyes again and continue lying there.
The children had changed into new summer clothes. The boys wore singlets and trousers, while the girls wore beautiful skirts and sandals made of pig skin.
Dinner was served with more water and more cold dishes, especially chicken feet, pig skin, pig trotters, and fish, which were all made with jellied meat.
The rice with water was good. Steamed or boiled millet, yellow rice, sorghum rice, and white rice were soaked and scooped with fresh well water.
When it was eaten, it was accompanied by pickled vegetables. Usually, they could eat two bowls and three bowls easily.
However, after washing four bowls of rice, there were only three bowls left.
Ordinary people didn't dare to eat it. It was too fermenting.
In addition to the rice with water, the villagers also liked the noodles with soy sauce.
When the noodles were soaked in cold water, they would scoop up a spoonful of sauce and suck it in.
Of course, garlic was indispensable.
Li Yi always felt that his habit of eating raw garlic while eating noodles with soy sauce in the north was passed down from the Tang Dynasty.
However, during the Tang Dynasty, garlic was eaten in both the north and the south. It became a trend of eating garlic.
Therefore, he was eating … hotpot for dinner today.
He didn't want to eat staple food. He couldn't eat rice with water either. Hotpot and some wine could let him sleep well.
Big Lu and Old Six gathered the Winged Knights who didn't stand guard. While eating, they asked the two of them how they felt when they were in the sky.
They were allowed to drink. The medicinal wine they soaked in was frozen in the sky and could stimulate blood flow.
Empress Wang didn't come out. She stayed in her room and looked after the children with Noble Consort Lu.
"Brother Yi, are you planning to sell the ice you stored in Zhuangzi for the winter?" Li Chengqi, who had rushed to Zhuangzi, accompanied them to eat hotpot.
"Not for sale. From tomorrow onwards, there will be cold drinks in Zhuangzi. Li Yi shook his head. "It's getting hot. Don't get heat stroke."
When the topic of heatstroke was brought up, his brows twitched. "The Synopsis of the Golden Chamber uses the syndrome differentiation to treat heatstroke, using poison to fight poison.
When the internal heat is difficult to expel, drink ginger water and monkshood water. It's the same as having hotpot for dinner tonight.
It was hot outside, and the cold air was pressing in. Eating hotpot was hot, and it could expel the heat and cold in the body.
Some people will also drink mutton soup and hot tea. After sweating, they will feel cool and relieve the heat. "
Li Yi explained that heatstroke was a type of treatment, just like Yin Deficiency and Yang Deficiency.
Li Longji and Li Chengqi listened and felt that it made sense. Yes, that was exactly the case.
"But." Li Yi's turn came.
"Not everyone drinks hot water when it's unbearably hot. Some people just collapse after drinking it.
Therefore, don't use hot water if you can. Cold water is still very useful. Well water is good. The ground is not hot, but the well water is cold.
Later, I will write a method to prevent heatstroke that can be easily understood by the people and spread it. "
Li Yi knew that some people drank mutton soup to relieve the heat and got heatstroke in the end.
The body was already hot, and more heat entered. The speed of excretion was not as fast as the accumulation, and they collapsed.
Especially those who liked to add more mutton oil and chili oil when drinking mutton soup.
The two listened and nodded. They did not understand anyway.
"Other places are beyond my reach. The well drilling team can drill in dry places. They can't draw water.
Chang 'an's docks can specially drill wells. The well water is cold for the people working at the docks to drink.
At the same time, they can replenish salt. Otherwise, according to previous years, there will be people who suddenly fainted while working. "
Li Chengqi knew that the people at the docks liked to drink river water.
Now that there was soup, they would drink it. The soup was hot and cold, and they would not feel comfortable after drinking it.
Coincidentally, the well drilling team left behind in Chang 'an did not go out. They conveniently drilled a well at every docks.
Once the well water was cold, they would feel refreshed after drinking a mouthful of it.
"This is good. We don't have to worry about them drinking too much water and getting water poisoning. They will sweat non-stop when they are carrying."
Li Yi agreed. He decided to write the method to prevent heatstroke that the people working should drink more water.
As for the people working in the shade, they just need to pay attention to hydration. Drinking hot tea was not a problem.
Cold tea was not recommended as drinking too much water poisoning.
Things like Huo Xiang Zhengqi Water, Rock Sugar Mung Bean Water, and Sour Plum Soup were for the rich.
If the poor told them about this, they would be scolded to death.
"Later, I will ask Song De to lower the price of the worst tea foam. One copper coin per kilogram.
Especially now that the tea leaves have become big leaves, there will be more foam when the tea leaves are made.
It is better to give it to the people who need it. At the same time, it can also replenish vitamins and theophylline. "
Li Yi decided to help the ordinary people of the Capital Magistrate prevent heatstroke.
He could not do anything about places that were too far away. He could not control the people in the world.
Even if he had the ability to control them, it would be through the officials and organizations, such as various alliances.
When Li Longji heard the price, he gently shook his head, "You can't sell it openly. There should be a limit to prevent people from hoarding."
"Third Brother is right. I will register that each household can only buy one kilogram for ten days. Even if there are some omissions, it doesn't matter.
For those who do not have a place of birth, we will put their handprints and check if the handprints are fake. It will give them the feeling that we will investigate. "
Li Yi nodded. Yes, what if some wicked person saw that the tea was one copper coin per kilogram …
"No, the initial price will be three copper coins per kilogram." Li Yi changed his mind.
"After ten days, the price will drop to five copper coins per kilogram. After another ten days, it will be two copper coins per kilogram." Li Yi said.
"Good. Those who want to hoard it will immediately sell the tea in their hands after two days. They will not dare to buy more." Li Chengqi clapped his hands in agreement.
After the meal, Li Yi went to write a set of methods to prevent heatstroke and predict the signs of heatstroke. It was easy to understand.
He turned around and drew a simple diagram. Then, he took it to the workshop and found a random person.
"Then go and make it. Manual ice shaving machine. You can mix it with various kinds of fruit juice. It is cool and refreshing.
Pregnant women should not eat too much. Just a few mouthfuls are enough.
Children can eat a little at a time. They can eat a few more times. If they eat too much at one time, they will have diarrhea. "
Li Yi sighed with emotion when he heard the sound of cicadas.
He had been to Xi 'an before. The sound of cicadas could no longer be heard in the city. They could only be heard in the National Conservation Park in Lantian County.
In this regard, he felt that Xi 'an was not as good as Henan. When he went to Zhengzhou in Henan to discuss business.
Many places where there were many cicadas were not allowed to sound their horns. They said that they were afraid that it would affect the cicadas' communication.
Now that he heard a large number of cicadas calling out, it was annoying.
There were also forest frogs, frogs in the paddy fields, and toads calling out.
When it was hot and stuffy, they could only get used to the noisy noise.
"It's mating season again. Couples … should be separated, like Liangshan Lake and Zhuyingtai …"
After Li Yi muttered these two names, he suddenly had an idea.
He walked around and found Song De, who was having dinner with Hu Erniang.
"When it's time to get married, just get married. Don't always drag it out. A separate courtyard and betrothal gifts can be used at any time." Li Yi said.
He asked Song De to send someone to Pyong Kang Square tomorrow to invite Xinyan and the others over. He said that he had a new song to discuss.
