The Lord is Addicted in Infrastructure

After Fei Lifu Keier stepped onto the booth, he unconsciously looked at one place... Then his eyes drifted away with red ears.

He coughed dryly and said, "I, let me explain my alchemy research results..."

People from the same alchemy school as Fei Lifu Kiel frowned, and asked the people beside him in doubt: "Is Fei Lifu nervous?"

"Why does he look uncomfortable and stutter when he speaks?"

The person next to him also looked puzzled, shook his head and said, "He was fine before he came to the auction house... Could it be that he got nervous after going up?!"

The man thought about it and thought it was funny.

——Because, judging from Felif Keir's personality, this kind of situation should never happen.

Xia Zuoyi listened attentively in the seat.

He listened to Philip Keir explaining the alchemy theory he studied-he believed that everything in the world is composed of four elements, namely air, water, fire, and earth.

The human body has four basic characteristics, namely dryness, dampness, coldness and heat.

Among them, each element is composed of two of these four characteristics, for example, fire is dry and hot, and air is moist and hot.

Everything is composed of these four elements, which means that substances can be transformed into each other.

- For example, common metals can be turned into gold coins.

It is not possible now, just because people have not found and controlled the path and method for the conversion between substances for the time being.

The four elements are in turn related to the four characteristics of the human body.

——The disease of people's body is nothing more than the imbalance of characteristics. Which end has reduced characteristics and which end has increased characteristics will cause different degrees of disease.

Metals are the things that best reveal elements and properties.

Therefore, studying the conversion and changes between metals can not only turn stones into gold, but also hope to research the philosopher's stone to treat all diseases-that is, use "transformation" to achieve the balance of internal characteristics.

Felif Keir talked eloquently at the booth.

Xia Zuoyi asked suddenly: "So, what is your research result? Have you researched a metal that can treat people's diseases?"

An alchemist of the same school as Philif Kiel murmured for a moment: "Oh, Phillip must be angry..."

He was very aware of this man's bad temper.

In particular, Fei Lifu once expressed his suspicion and rejection of the Designian lord.

Philife is against the lord—thought the alchemist.

Who knew that when he raised his head to look at Fei Lifu's face, he heard Fei Lifu stammering on the booth: "This, this is not yet... that is the final research result."

"At present, it is difficult to achieve..."

"But my related alchemy research has already achieved preliminary results."

Xia Zuoyi: "What is it?"

Fei Lifu's face became serious, and he said solemnly: "It's mercury measuring the temperature."

Xia Zuoyi raised her eyebrows, slightly surprised.

And for a while, except for the alchemy school who also studied metals, the rest began to discuss and talk with each other in low voices.

Even Chebman Norton speaks to his apprentice Beggin.

It was not difficult for Xia Zuoyi to understand what they were discussing.

After all, this matter has a little to do with him.

Mercury, commonly known as quicksilver, is a naturally occurring element.

However, the distribution of mercury is extremely small, and it is considered a rare metal, and it mostly exists in the air, water or soil, and is close to other metals. It needs some refining to get complete mercury.

The most important thing is—in the history of alchemy in the real Middle Ages, mercury, sulfur, and salt are called the three sacred elements of alchemy, which shows the importance of mercury.

Later, in the history of the European Middle Ages, mercury played a major role in important drug treatments.

——For example, a large number of mercury components are added to medicines, but the rationality is not considered, which leads to frequent occurrence of diseases.

Or take calomel as a strong and effective laxative, and you can get rid of a lot of black feces after a while...

This is actually a reaction to mercury poisoning.

There are countless cases like this.

In the Middle Ages at that time, some people believed that mercury could treat mental illness.

The doctor will let the patient take mercury medicine, and directly eat the medicine containing mercury to fight against the frequent occurrence of mental illness, but in the end, only one breath exists to toss the patient.

—Patients no longer open their mouths to speak because of tooth loss and sores on their faces and mouths, and they no longer move freely because of weakness...

This kind of performance is considered by doctors to be a case of recovery from mental illness...

In particular, alchemists believed that mercury was the spirit of alchemy and the main element of all metallicity.

This has also led to mercury being used in large quantities and widely as a drug ingredient, and the source of the disease has not been discovered for a long time, or the cause of the disease is mercury poisoning.

And even if there was a mercury poisoning reaction at that time, it would be considered the result of a side effect of the drug.

The toxicity of heavy metals is usually ignored.

On the Western Continent, the Alchemy Association also listed mercury as one of the metals that should be studied most, and it was highly valued by alchemists in the early years.

But Xia Zuoyi suddenly discovered that mercury had a tendency to be put into potions by alchemists when he first studied medicine, so he wrote a letter specially for this purpose.

Then sent someone to the Alchemist Association.

In his letter, he stated directly that mercury has highly toxic properties.

For example, mercury volatilizes into the air, enters the human body through breathing, or enters the human body if it accidentally touches the skin... Mercury poisoning is seriously harmful and damages health.

Moreover, he also elaborated on the phenomena found in experiments with animals, and suggested that the alchemists in the association should stop using mercury to study the possibility of medical treatment.

It kills people.

After that, Xia Zuoyi also made some publicity about mercury in the territory.

After this letter was sent to the Alchemists' Guild, the research on mercury decreased again and again-because it was confirmed that mercury was poisonous.

Xia Zuoyi didn't pay much attention to it when she saw that there was an effect after delivering the letter.

After all, he has many things to do every day in the territory.

And at that time, he naturally didn't know how much this letter had dealt with the alchemists of the alchemy school who studied metals...

Because one of his letters led to great consequences - it directly led to the overthrow of various experiments on mercury at that time, and even the experiment was completely useless, and the effort was in vain.

Many people have a lot of resentment towards Designia.

What's even more irritating is that Xia Zuoyi Designia is not yet an alchemist who belongs to the metal school of alchemy!

So, what is his intention? !

It is not difficult to explain why in alchemy

Some people in the Association of Publishers will secretly slander him, dislike him, and polarize his evaluation.

The metal Mercury, Mercury, was abandoned for some time to be studied.

But who would have thought that now there is another alchemy genius—Felif Kiel standing on the booth and saying that "mercury can be used to measure temperature".

Almost the moment he finished speaking, Xia Zuoyi understood what his research results were.

Mercury thermometer, mercury thermometer.

Especially the latter.

Xia Zuoyi couldn't help but patted his forehead. He actually forgot this kind of common medical supplies...

Probably because he never used a thermometer to measure his fever before, and he would take medicine immediately if he felt unwell or sick.

So that the heart will subconsciously ignore the past.

Philif Keel's research results are not so much the discovery of the role of mercury as a manifestation of his theory.

—Metals can be changed by mass transfer.

Philif Keel had his research brought up.

——This is a thermometer with the thickness of two fingers and a slightly flat shape made of glass. There are also some small scales on the tube.

He presented his research to the crowd sitting in chairs.

People can clearly see a small silver bead at the bottom of the glass tube, which is mercury.

At this time, a cup of steaming water was placed on the table by the waiter.

Fei Lifu put the end containing the mercury sphere into the hot water, and after a while, a thin silver thread rose along the narrow passage in the glass tube.

Hearing people's exclamations, he picked up the thermometer again—after touching the air, he waited for a while before the mercury line inside began to slide slowly, and was finally recovered into the mercury sphere.

Fei Lifu: "Mercury can clearly feel 'cold' and 'hot' among the four characteristics. This research is a major breakthrough, for the future..."

The nobles, including some alchemists and doctors, were listening to him carefully.

Philif Keir's explanation was impassioned, and his face was blushing. He couldn't help but look towards the alchemist area, and found that the man was talking to the butler standing behind him with his head turned slightly.

Xia Zuoyi said softly: "Judit, write down this Fei Lifu Keir in the book..."

"I heard that the president of the Ed Chamber of Commerce is very optimistic about him. You should pay attention to your actions and don't let the Ed Chamber of Commerce take the person away in advance."

"Yes, lord."

Xia Zuoyi sat down with her arms folded.

He thought that Fei Lifu Keir was indeed talented. Although his research direction was a little bit off, he could come back if he was trained.

Isn't this a ready-made scientific researcher?

Xia Zuoyi smiled at Fei Lifu Keir.

"Cough...cough cough, hiccup!"

Fei Lifu was suddenly choked by his own saliva on the booth, he thumped his chest violently, his face flushed, and then hiccupped continuously.

"What the hell happened to Fei Lifu today?! It's too embarrassing..."

His fellow alchemist lowered his head and covered his mouth, his expression was embarrassing for him and he wanted to laugh, so that he looked a little weird and distorted.

Fei Lifu is not like this usually. It is really a shame that the rope that tied his crotch loosened at a critical moment.

Xia Zuoyi looked strangely at Felifu Keir, who hiccupped and walked off the stage after finishing his speech, tilting his head in confusion.

After that, he stopped paying attention to this person, and started to look at Chebman Norton, wondering if he or the master alchemist would be next...
