Daming: I became Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son

Chapter 273 Antibody Experiments for Malaria

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned. They couldn't imagine that such an incurable disease at the time, Zhu Tao said it so easily.

Although no one was skeptical of his words, but this matter was too mysterious after all, Li Shanchang finally asked.

"But this is something that even Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, couldn't solve it. Isn't it a little whimsical that you have such a solution?"

Zhu Tao said with a smile.

"Li Xiangguo, have you forgotten? From the doctor to the general doctor in the Tai Hospital, they all trained in my Zhujiazhuang Hospital before they can officially start working. In other words, my medical skills are pretty good."

Of course, the civil and military officials present were very clear about Zhu Tao's work, especially Xu Da, who had followed him for half his life with back sores, and let Zhu Tao heal within three to five days.

Therefore, Xu Da was full of praise for Zhu Tao's medical skills, and hurriedly came up to speak.

"Young master, could it be that you have already developed a magic medicine for treating malaria?"

Zhu Tao thought about it, and felt that there was no need to explain it to them in detail. People in this era can't even explain what an antibody is.

So he decided not to bother so much, and said directly.

"If we talk about magic medicine, there is no such thing in this world, but I have indeed developed a medicine. As long as you take this medicine, you will not be infected with malaria. It can cure the disease if you are sick, and protect yourself if you are not sick."

Some time ago, when Zhu Tao signed in, he got some Cinchona Cream, which not only contained preventive antibodies, but also therapeutic drugs.

And this time the subsystem is still very generous, and it took a few hundred catties at once.

Seeing everyone seemed a little unbelievable, Zhu Tao said directly.

"Since this is the case, let's do an experiment. I gave some of my medicines to death row prisoners, and then put them in a space where they were in close contact with malaria patients. I waited for ten and a half months to watch them Whether it is infected or not will do."

This is very simple, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered immediately.

"In the big prison on the outskirts of Beijing, a group of death-row prisoners will be executed immediately. There are about 300 people. We will extract them all and ask Zhu Tao to make antibodies for them, and then put them into malaria patients to live together. After a month, we will see the situation."

If there is really an infection, it must have been observed within half a month.

Zhu Tao yawned and said to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Father, there is still a long time before half a month. Let's go back first. You continue to work hard here. If there is anything you need, just let the eldest brother come to me."

Zhu Biao curled his lips, and said in his heart that he really took the prince as an errand, but then again, he was still very willing to run errands for Zhu Tao.

Everyone is also discussing here, and everyone has different opinions about this antibody.

But there is a unified conclusion that it is basically impossible to achieve such a goal.

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.

"I would like to make a bet with all the ministers. Let us bet 500 taels of silver. If Zhu Tao completes this task, you will lose 500 taels to me. If he can not complete this task, I will lose 5000 taels to each of you."

Let's talk it out, if someone really wins, would you still dare to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get your money? Wouldn't it be that the birthday man hanged himself because he thinks his life is too long.

In a blink of an eye, half a month passed, and Lin Guokang, the new doctor at Taiyuan Hospital, came to report that none of the prisoners involved in the experiment was infected with malaria.

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang almost jumped up. This is not a simple experiment, but a major breakthrough.

Throughout the ages, there has not been any miracle doctor who can completely cure malaria, but Zhu Tao can not only cure malaria, but also prevent malaria. He is really a medical genius.

And the miraculous attainments in medicine are just the least worth mentioning aspect of his many abilities.

Zhu Yuanzhang also felt gratified and proud that he had such a son, he looked at the ministers and said.

"Everyone, my son is fighting for his strength. We won this bet. You should hand over all the money. 500 taels per person, and you can just hand it over to the inner government after the court."

For these six ministers and nobles of the imperial court, 500 taels of silver per person is basically nothing. They are more concerned about the results of Zhu Tao's experiment this time.

Xu Da was the first to jump out. He was so happy. As the governor of the five armies and the commander of the Chinese army, he was the chief commander of the Ming army. Now, he should be more elated.

"In this way, we can put the pus of malaria in the grain and cloth of the grassland. When the time comes, there will be a mess on the grassland, and even a pile of dead bodies. If our Ming soldiers go there, it is probably not fighting, but It's the corpse collection team."

Xu Da was really overjoyed. For him, such a result could minimize the loss ratio.

He is the leader of the soldiers, he brought those soldiers over from the blood and fire, and he loves his soldiers the most, so the less casualties of the army, or even zero casualties, is the most urgent goal he wants to achieve.

How can Zhu Tao not make him feel excited about such an opportunity that Zhu Tao created for him?
As the actual head of the cabinet, Li Shanchang thought of more than that, he was more excited than Xu Da.

One must know that the founding of the Ming Dynasty was only more than ten years old, and now there is not much advanced medicine. Every year, no less than [-] people die from malaria.

This is also a very troublesome thing. After all, every time this kind of thing happens, it will almost take a while, and every time it happens, it will cost more than one million taels of silver.

If malaria can really be contained or even eradicated throughout Daming, it will be a great achievement.

Thinking of this, Li Shanchang found it even more difficult to control his emotions. He walked up to Zhu Tao, bowed deeply, and said.

"King Dingyuan's merits and Hua Tuo's rebirth as the king of medicine are completely incomparable. Please accept my worship."

Zhu Tao shook his head indifferently, and said to Li Shanchang.

"Li Xiangguo, don't be so polite. We are not outsiders. Leave the polite words to others. This matter is not a big deal. Later, you will ask that person to send a few people to me to take the medicine and golden rooster for vaccination. Nashuang will move them all back, and it will be fine for the Tai Hospital to deal with them."

After finishing speaking, he yawned again, and all the civil and military officials present were taken aback.

To be able to develop such a drug, it is natural to want any kind of reward. Li Shanchang's words are not disgusting at all.

All the ministers present thought that Zhu Tao should be rewarded, and they all asked Zhu Yuanzhang for Zhu Tao's credit.
