What surprised them even more was that because the medical treatment here does not cost money, although it is only for difficult and miscellaneous diseases, it still caused a huge sensation in Daming.

The common people now regard these imperial physicians in the research institute as Buddhas of ten thousand families, and Zhu Zhanji has become a god-like existence.

Even if their illnesses were not cured, and there was no doctor to trouble them, they were grateful instead.

There are more and more patients with various intractable diseases, and the reputation of the Institute of Medicine is growing.Under the guidance of Zhu Zhanji, the imperial physicians are also planning to open the first real traditional Chinese medicine hospital for common diseases in Ming Dynasty.

The hospital is divided into different departments for different patients.However, all the current clients are mainly for officials and nobles. After all, if ordinary people get sick, unless it is an intractable disease, at most they will go to the local doctor to get medicine, and they cannot afford the high cost of treatment.

Moreover, prescriptions and drug supply are still separated. Zhu Zhanji never wanted hospitals to sell drugs.

Although this cannot completely eliminate high drug prices, at least it can prevent hospitals from raising drug prices so frantically.

After being welcomed into the courtyard of the research institute, everyone came to the room where the microscope was placed.

Zhong Hezi Laodao saw the world composed of bacteria from the lens of the microscope, and was completely fascinated, even forgetting Zhu Zhanji beside him.

Zhu Zhanji didn't bother him anymore, and threw him to a group of imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital, and brought Liu Chenghui, who didn't want to leave, to the Gewu Research Institute.

Medical research Zhu Zhanji is completely out of reach, but the Gewu Research Institute is different, because he is very clear about the laws and processes of technological development.

Today's Gewu Research Institute is also the place with the most weirdos and the most achievements among all the research institutes.

However, due to the relatively early stage of development, many studies have not yet reached the level of application.

For example, in front of them is the steam engine burning with raging fire.

This steam engine is still very rough, just like a large teapot with a base, except that it has one more water inlet pipe, one water outlet pipe, an air storage tank, and an air outlet pipe than the teapot.

In front of the air outlet pipe, a linked gear combination is connected, which can drive a circular grinder.

The current steam engine is too crude, and there are many problems that have not been solved.Such as stable power output, stable pressure test, and stable air-holding spare parts.

The most difficult part is the design of the power output device. Zhu Zhanji is a complete layman in this regard.

The generation of steam depends on the pressure of boiling water, but how to concentrate these pressures to generate huge power is a problem that everyone is currently studying.

Today's steam engine is only connected to the crankshaft, which can do physical movement, and the process of adding cylinders and pistons is still early.

If the cylinder piston problem can be solved, Zhu Zhanji even wants to skip the stage of the steam engine and go directly to the internal combustion engine.

The advantages of the internal combustion engine over the steam engine are enormous.But at present, it seems that it is impossible to realize it at least in the short term, because even the most basic material technology cannot be solved.

Today's steam engine prototype has come out, and the craftsmen who have been inspired are committed to solving the problems of air pressure control and power output.

In Zhu Zhanji's opinion, it won't be too long before the application.

Of course, it is still very early to make it drive trains, and it can only be used as a water pump at most.

Then it will be tested on the ship and drive the ship to sail.

The steam engine, the monster in everyone's eyes, is the current research focus of the research institute, but it is not Zhu Zhanji's most important thing.

What he pays more attention to is the generator that is now being researched secretly in a remote courtyard.

The age of steam engines, the age of electricity, and the age of electronics are three important stages in the history of human industrial development.

The application of lightning is shocking in this era.But for Zhu Zhanji, it was just a childhood toy.

Almost every boy has all kinds of whimsical ideas when he is young, and some of them will put them into action.

When Zhu Zhanji was a child, he bypassed coils and used small electric motors to make toys such as drills.

For him, all he needed to have electricity was copper wire and magnets.

But in this day and age, magnets are easy to find and allow artisans to polish them into desired shapes.

However, enameled wires are hard to find. Last year, Zhu Zhanji spent a lot of effort to get a craftsman to help him draw about 50 meters of copper wire with a diameter of about one millimeter. A lot of human cost.

Then, these copper wires were burned red, passed through the vegetable paint, and finally the enameled wires were produced.

Zhu Zhanji first simply wound a coil and fixed it around the magnet, leaving two heads.Then use a hand-operated disc to drive the gear device and rotate the magnet to generate electricity.

Although he knows a lot of things, but at present, he can only make this level by himself.

All these things were not completed until this spring. Zhu Zhanji moved back to the palace and performed in front of Zhu Di.

Seeing the continuous lightning flashing between the two sections of copper wire, Zhu Di's surprised eyes almost popped out.

At that time, Yun Xiang, the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, was also there. This Mongolian man was very powerful, but when he saw this scene, he knelt down and knelt down.

Zhu Di arranged for a young eunuch to put his hand in to test it out. Although the electric current didn't kill anyone, it made him tremble all over, and he became incontinent when he urinated.

Zhu Di immediately blocked the news, and then sent several craftsmen to study how to make it.

Of course they don't understand the principle here, and they don't even dare to think about it at all, they only dare to perfect it according to Zhu Zhanji's design.

This led to a consequence, that is, after several months of production, the coils became bigger and bigger, and the magnets used became bigger and bigger. They even made a super coil, the kind that can directly electrocute people.

But other functions have not been developed.

Zhu Zhanji didn't know how to proceed, because the production of light bulbs was much more difficult than this.

Even if Ma Zhide can make a pear-shaped glass bulb, the problem of the filament is difficult to solve, let alone the ability to extract the oxygen in the bulb.

Therefore, although Zhu Zhanji knows how to generate electricity, he does not know how to make motors, nor can he use electricity to serve industries, so he can only temporarily block it.

After building the giant power generation coil, Zhu Di has another plan. He plans to demonstrate it to the common people at the Chengtianmen Tower at the Lantern Festival next year.

Zhu Zhanji strongly supports this plan, and the common people today are so easy to fool.Move this set of devices to the city tower, and perform a "thunder and lightning borrowed from the sky" at night. Not to mention the common people, I am afraid that all the ministers will be so scared that their legs will limp.

After walking around for a while, Zhonghezi was already acquainted with a large group of imperial physicians at this time.Many imperial physicians surrounded him, discussing with him about the formation and treatment of miasma.

The plague of Cochin last year killed nearly a million people at once, and tens of thousands of people died even in Guangxi, which is connected to Cochin.

Everyone communicates with each other, inspires each other, and researches together.If miasma and plague can really be solved, it will be a great joy to benefit the people.

If it is an ordinary person, naturally it will not be recognized by the imperial physicians so quickly.They are all the most top-notch people in medicine in this era, and ordinary people may be looked down upon by them.

But Zhonghezi is very old, and at the age of 72, he looks alive and well.Moreover, he is really proficient in medicine. In order to solve the miasma problem, he has been studying it for decades.

No imperial doctor would dare to despise such an elder with real talents and real learning.

At noon, Zhu Zhanji came to treat Zhonghezi to dinner, and arranged a residence for him in Xiamaqiao.

But just when he was about to order the meal, a servant came from the palace, Xuan Zhu Zhanji and Zhonghezi returned to the palace.

After Zhu Di came down to court, he found out that Zhu Zhanji put down his business today and went to the pier to meet an old fairy from Lingnan.
