Robbers of the strongest system

Chapter 131 Technology can do everything you can think of

Shen Kuo had long been impatient with Zhang Yi and Zhao Xu's boring words, and seeing Zhao Xu dumbfounded, he quickly interjected, "Master Emperor, please stop talking about it, and tell me how to prevent smallpox first. "

"Hehe, well, I went on to say that the reason why those people were not infected with smallpox is because they had been immune to smallpox unintentionally."

"Emperor Master, is it possible that the method of immunity lies in those livestock?"

"That's right. Mr. Shen, you must have noticed that some domestic animals, especially large ones like cattle, sometimes have lesions and sores on their breasts, and these lesions are caused by the smallpox virus in cattle."

"What? That's smallpox virus? But Emperor Master, didn't you just say it was a preventive method?"

"Master Shen, you are too anxious. You didn't understand what I was talking about. I only said that it was smallpox virus from cattle, but I didn't say that it was smallpox virus from humans."

Shen Kuo: "..."

"We all know that a person will only be infected with smallpox virus once in a lifetime, so the way to prevent and control it is to let people be infected with smallpox virus actively, and the best smallpox virus that is harmless to humans is cattle smallpox virus, commonly known as cowpox."

By this time, Shen Kuo had fully understood. He stayed for a while and then cheered loudly to Zhao Xu: "It turned out to be like this... Haha, Your Majesty, we don't have to worry about smallpox anymore in Song Dynasty."

"Master Shen, don't be happy yet. I still have many things to ask Master...Master, besides talking about smallpox and malaria, you also talked about penicillin. Master, what is penicillin? What is penicillin used for?"

"Uh...how can I tell you, Mr. Shen, you may have seen the paste that has been left for a few days, and sometimes you will find that it is covered with green hairs, and penicillin is extracted from those green hairs. The usefulness of penicillin... It can be said that it can treat all the diseases caused by inflammation in the world. Mr. Zhang should know that in fact, not many people actually died on the battlefield during the war. Most of them were caused by inflammation. disease that kills."

"Master Emperor, are you saying that the paste covered with green hairs can treat inflammation?"

"It is possible, but it is definitely not possible to directly use the paste covered with green hairs, because there are other harmful things in it... Forget it, you just need to know about penicillin. After all, there is no way to extract it with the current level of technology. to very pure penicillin."

"But……"

"Master Shen, for penicillin, you'd better organize a group of people to study it. I think you will see the effect in a few years."

"Master, is science and technology really that miraculous? And is mathematics, physics and chemistry the basis of science?"

"Hehe, let's put it this way, as long as the technology reaches a certain level, people can make calls from thousands of miles away, eat in Kaifeng in the morning, and sleep in Hangzhou at night, and they can also destroy a country by one person, and of course they can change your mind or something. , in short, as long as the technology develops to a certain level, it can do everything you can think of now, hehe, even if you go to the moon, it will be fine.”

"what……"

"Master, if going to the moon disturbs Fairy Chang'e..."

"Who told you that there is a Fairy Chang'e on the moon?"

"But……"

"I just told you not to follow others' opinions, why did you forget it so quickly? You didn't go to the moon yourself, why do you believe those words?"

"Master..."

"Tell you that not only is there no Chang'e on the moon, but there is no air or water on the moon. The moon is a desolate area, and people can't live on it... Yue'er, you can draw a world map for them later, let them understand first. Take a look at the land where I live... I don't even know where I live, but my heart has already flown to the moon..."

"kindness."

"I just said that if technology develops to a certain level, you can do anything you can think of. Of course, you can also go up to the moon. However, with the current level of technology in the Song Dynasty, even with my help, you will not be able to do it for at least 100 years. Don’t even think about it.”

"Ah...so long..."

"You think it's easy to develop technology... By the way, Mr. Shen, I'll ask Yue'er to give you the blueprint of the steam engine later on. You can start researching from this. As long as you can successfully manufacture the steam engine, then Da Song's technology will be great." developed rapidly."

"Yes. But the emperor, what is a steam engine?"

"I'm going, why are there so many questions... Mr. Shen, you know that the steam of water can generate power, right, and the steam engine is a machine that converts the power of steam into mechanical energy. As long as there is a steam engine, you can row a boat without oars in the future. Cloth looms don’t need manpower, and carts don’t need horses... In short, steam engines are machines that provide power... Well, I’m telling you that you don’t understand it now, let’s wait until Yue’er teaches you the basics.”

"Master, isn't the basic thing the mathematics, physics and chemistry you mentioned?"

"Well, it's these three, Xu'er, these three are the basic knowledge of social development, you must pay enough attention to it. In addition, with the development of science, many new problems will arise. I will explain these to you later. Tell me, I can't remember it for a while."

"kindness."

"Yue'er, do you know anything about the economy?"

"I don't quite understand, husband, don't forget that I am a medical student..."

"Okay, let me talk about this. Hey, I find that I am getting busier and busier... That's all. In the past few days, I will first talk about political economics to Xi'er and Brother Duan, and then talk about what will happen in the industrial revolution. The main problem is that it is estimated that after the initial lectures on these two courses, it will be time to go to the Shaolin Temple, and then we will go to the Shaolin Temple together."

"Master, I'm going this time too."

"Uh, what are you going to do? You, the emperor, can leave the imperial city casually?"

"Anyway, with the emperor's grandmother here, I'll be fine even if I go out for a while. Master, if I don't go out again this time, I'm afraid I won't be able to go out for the rest of my life..."

"Hehe, pretending to be so pitiful... Well, you can go too, but you have to tell your grandmother, otherwise I might wear a hat that kidnaps the emperor."

"Understood, thank you Master."

"Hehe, I'm glad you are... but it's really pitiful to be an emperor. You can't go out after staying in the palace for the rest of your life..."

"That's right, Master, I'm actually quite pitiful, or I wouldn't be the emperor, you take me away."

When Zhang Wei and Shen Kuo heard that Zhao Xu didn't even want to be emperor, they knelt down in fright and said, "Your Majesty, you must not..."

"Hmph, you'd better just say something like this, otherwise...Although I won't hit you, it's okay to let you experience that life is worse than death, Xu'er, why don't you try it."

"Haha, Master, I'm just talking...Master, I'm going back first, you are busy..."
