The people of Cangzhou are carrying out large-scale post-war reconstruction work.
As a boatman, Miao Hai naturally went to work in a shipyard by the sea.
The owner of the shipyard was ransacked by the rebels because he was a wealthy family in the city, and the entire family was killed by the rebels. It was extremely miserable.
After the Qing army entered the city, there was no one in charge of the shipyard, so it was taken over by the government.
Now the person in charge is from Gyeongju, and he is quite easy-going.
The steward told them: His Royal Highness Prince Qing will hire a large number of boatmen to transport goods to the south after the beginning of spring, so the ship must be repaired as soon as possible.
Miao Hai and the others rolled up their sleeves and worked hard.
Fortunately, the treatment given by His Royal Highness is quite good.
Not only the meal is full, but also the meat!
They eat well and work naturally with strength.Sometimes if you do a good job, you will be rewarded with two more pieces of meat.
Miao Hai would save the meat and take it home for his wife and daughter to eat.
After all, there are only a few people in Cangzhou who have the strength to work.
What about the remaining old, weak, women and children?
The government stipulates that children under the age of ten, elderly people over the age of 65, and pregnant women can temporarily go to the government to receive rations, and then deduct them after this year's autumn harvest.
Therefore, although Miao Hai can't get monthly money, his wife can subsidize himself by washing clothes, and his daughter can receive rations.
As long as the family can fill their stomachs.
He is already satisfied.
If it weren't for the Qing army, I don't know what Cangzhou would have become.
"Ah Hai! Get off work! Let's go to eat, I don't know what to eat today!"
Almost all of their boatmen, laborers who expanded the port, and artisans who built dry docks gathered in one place, and everyone ate together in the "canteen".
This "dining hall" is also a feature of Gyeongju.
He also heard that the Gyeongju Industrial Zone used to have only one canteen, but when the number of workers increased, another canteen was built.
Their canteen was temporarily built to provide them with two meals a day.
Just as they were queuing up for dinner, there was a sudden commotion not far away.
Everyone was talking.
"What happened?"
"It seems that someone at the port didn't pay attention. He hit his foot while tamping the earth, and the blood was... tsk."
"Ah? Hit your foot? This is terrible! Does it matter?"
"I don't know wow."
"I hope it's okay, otherwise, life will be difficult in the future."
"Don't talk about the future, just talk about now, the injury is like that, the doctor doesn't want money?"
"That's right, how can there be money to see a doctor and take medicine?"
When Miao Hai heard this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it was too miserable.
Injury to the foot means that you can't work for a short period of time, and if you can't work, you won't have food. Isn't this just waiting to die?
Not to mention taking money to see a doctor.
Just when everyone felt the same way and sighed, there were cheers again.
"What's wrong with this?"
"I gonna go see."
"I'm back! How's it going? What's the matter?"
"Don't worry, you guys. I heard from the supervisor that this is a work-related injury and you can apply for compensation!"
"Compensation! Is it money? How much can I get?"
"It's not clear, let's see the specific injury."
"This Gyeongju steward is really good!"
"This is the rule set by His Royal Highness Gyeongju!"
"His Royal Highness is so kind!"
Miao Hai thought so deeply.
What kind of fairy is His Royal Highness?
The Immortal Prince had some free time recently, so he had a whim and planned to do an experiment.
This experiment is a bit shocking, but if it is successful, it will definitely be a pioneering work!
He wanted to see if penicillin could be produced by the soil method.
Lou Yu has read many time-travel novels, and penicillin can be said to be one of the most popular studies for time-travelers.
Once this thing is researched, it can save the lives of tens of thousands of people.
Lou Yu likes to plan for a rainy day when doing things, and it's okay to do an experiment while he has time.
Maybe it can be researched!
He first ordered the kiln workers to make a whole set of glassware, and then called Chen Chuanbai.
"Old Chen, you have practiced medicine for decades, have you ever seen someone die from trauma?"
Chen Chuanbai was taken aback: "Could it be that your Highness is talking about the invasion of wind and poison?"
Lou Yu nodded.
People are prone to bacterial infection after injury. Before the invention of penicillin, unless the immunity was strong, once the wound was infected, few people could really survive it.
"Does Mr. Chen have any research on the invasion of wind poison?" Lou Yu asked solemnly.
Chen Chuanbai said with emotion: "As for the disease of wind-toxin invasion, the old man has read many medical books and studied for most of his life, but he has not been able to find a good medicine. I am really ashamed!"
"Mr. Chen, don't blame yourself," Lou Yusu Rong said, "You must also know that since ancient times, the number of soldiers who died on the battlefield is far less than the number of people who died from wind and poison. These soldiers in Gyeongju are willing to bleed and sacrifice for Gyeongju. As the son of Gyeongju, I also want to do something for them."
Of course, he didn't only think about the soldiers of Gyeongju. The reason why he said this was because it was more suitable for his status as the lord of Gyeongju.
Any hero must hope that his soldiers are healthy and healthy.
Chen Chuanbai thought he understood his thoughts, and said: "Your Highness is sympathetic to the soldiers, and this old man appreciates it, but this old man really has no cure for the disease caused by the invasion of wind and poison."
As a doctor, everyone wants to save more people's lives, but sometimes there is really more than enough.
Lou Yu showed melancholy, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "I read some ancient books before, and I saw a folk prescription, which said to use mold seeds from fruits and vegetables to smear wounds, which may help patients resist wind poison."
He's not making this up.
In ancient times, many doctors did try this method, perhaps because of a chance, a certain doctor ran into a dead mouse and saved the patient with this method, and everyone followed suit.
But the doctors didn't know the reason, so they thought that the mold might be able to resist the wind poison, but whether they could survive was left to fate.
Applying the mold seed directly has only a very small chance of saving the patient, and it is more likely that the infection will be worse and the patient will die faster.
This is a gamble.
Chen Chuanbai sighed deeply: "It is true, but there are only a handful of people who can be saved by this method."
He himself is not willing to follow this method.
Lou Yu suddenly said with great interest: "Since this method has a certain effect, it means that there must be some principles of treating patients in it. If we can understand the principles, wouldn't it benefit all people?"
"Your Highness, what do you mean..." Chen Chuanbai was both surprised and delighted.
Lou Yu smiled and said, "Why don't we start with mold?"
Standing up, Chen Chuanbai bowed: "Your Highness has a heart for the common people, how can I refuse?"
Regardless of whether this attempt can be realized or not, he must thank His Highness for the sake of the common people in the world.
Your Highness is truly admirable!
Preparation of penicillin can not be completed overnight.
Lou Yu summoned a group of doctors, including Chen Chuanbai, Chen Xuanshen, and Huo Qiong, to gather in the chemical factory.
When building a chemical plant, he deliberately asked someone to build a laboratory.
There are a number of glass containers neatly placed inside, all of which have been boiled in boiling water.
"Scrophulariae, Arjun, I think Mr. Chen has mentioned to you that we will study how to treat wind-toxin invasion disease in this laboratory in the future."
Chen Xuanshen looked calm, but his eyes were burning hot: "Your Highness has the ambition to reach the sky, and Scrophulariae will definitely live up to His Highness's trust."
Huo Qiong also said firmly: "Your Highness, the disease of wind-toxin invasion has plagued doctors for thousands of years. If we can research it, we can save the lives of tens of thousands of people!"
The rest of the doctors all nodded in agreement.
Lou Yu asked solemnly: "Then have you ever thought about why there is a disease of wind poison invasion?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, the invasion of wind poison is the invasion of wind poison, why is there any reason?
Seeing them like this, Lou Yu was not discouraged, and continued to guide them:
"The reason why wind poison is called wind poison is because most doctors think that there is toxin intrusion outside the wound, causing the patient to be poisoned and die? Since arsenic, snake venom, etc. all have treatments, why can't there be no wind poison? "
Chen Chuanbai nodded: "What Your Highness said is very true, but we can't see and touch this wind poison, it's really hard to do it."
"How can you not see it?"
Lou Yu smiled and asked: "Our human body has damaged wounds and rotten flesh. Although it is different from steamed buns, rotten fruits and vegetables, what is the difference in essence?"
"It's just that the mold on their bodies can be seen, and the germs in our wounds have invaded the flesh and blood, so we can't see it."
What he said was quite simple, and he didn't have any medical skills, but Chen Chuanbai and the others could understand what he said.
Huo Qiong said: "Since you can't see it, how can you prescribe the right medicine?"
She had always been convinced of Lou Yu, and didn't think he was aimlessly targeting, so she listened very carefully.
Lou Yu smiled and said, "It's not necessarily invisible."
Penicillin was discovered by accident.
The discoverer extracted staphylococci from patients and cultured them into colonies.On a very accidental day, an unknown mold floated in from the window and fell into the culture medium, killing some colonies, which caught his attention.
One or two bacteria are naturally invisible, but the colony is visible to the naked eye.
He prepared a hundred glass flat bottom bowls, all of which were filled with broth. To prevent the broth from being easily spilled, Lou Yu added some gel boiled from the hooves of livestock to make it a hundred agar medium.
The nutritional requirements of Staphylococcus are not high, and in the broth medium, it can generally show a state of uniform growth within 24 hours.
This kind of bacteria is pyogenic coccus, which is widely distributed. It is not only easy to produce on wounds, but also exists on mucous membranes in animals, so it is very convenient to take.
However, in order to be more convincing, Lou Yu asked Chen Chuanbai and others to extract some pus from the patient's wound and put it into the culture medium.
He has already informed everyone about the idea of the experiment, and although they seem to understand but do not understand, they all listen to his orders.
After a day and a night, they were amazed to find that some orange things appeared in the one hundred glass bowls.
Although Chen Chuanbai was well-informed, he couldn't help being shocked by these bacterial colonies.
Lou Yu said with a smile: "These are all bacteria that cause illnesses. They are invisible to the naked eye, but they are very capable of multiplying. However, they can produce a large family day and night. Once there are more of them, can't they be seen?"
The bacterial culture medium is ready, and the penicillin must be prepared next.
Lou Yu asked them to extract Penicillium from moldy steamed buns or fruits and vegetables, and put them into another prepared culture medium.
Let it sit for another week.
To obtain a penicillin solution, other materials need to be prepared.
Distilled water is indispensable.
Water in nature contains a lot of impurities. Lou Yu does not have modern tools to purify the water easily.
He built a device to collect water vapor.
Boil water at the bottom of the utensil, place a concave glass jar on the top, fill it with cold water, and place a glass bowl under the lowest point of the glass jar.
After the water boils, the water vapor rises into the air and meets the cold glass at the top, where it condenses into water droplets. The water droplets slide to the concave point and drop little by little into the glass bowl below.
Impurities in the water will not turn into water vapor, so the water collected in this way can be called distilled water.
In addition to distilled water, Lou Yu is also equipped with a funnel, clean cotton, vegetable oil, charcoal powder, vinegar, seaweed juice and a container for purification.
A week later, the Penicillium culture was completed, and there were large and small colonies scattered in the culture medium.
Everyone poured the culture medium through the filter cotton in the funnel into the glass jar at the bottom.
The glass jar is specially made, and an opening is opened on the bottom side of the jar, which is then plugged with a stopper.
After all the liquid in the culture medium was poured into the glass jar, Lou Yu asked someone to add vegetable oil.
"Penicillium is soluble in water and not in oil, so we can extract the water that contains Penicillium," he explained.
The remaining fat-soluble substances are dissolved by the oil in the upper layer.
When the oil and water were separated, he opened the plug on the lower head and used a vessel to catch the water flowing from the lower layer.
Next, mix charcoal powder with water and mix well, then wash with distilled water, rinse with vinegar and seaweed juice, so that the impurities can be washed away.
The last dripping liquid is a relatively pure penicillin solution.
"Your Highness, that's it?" Huo Qiong asked.
Lou Yu shook his head: "Where is this?"
Even if the penicillin solution is produced, the experiment may not be successful once.
He prepared a number of round pocket papers, dipped them in a solution of penicillin, took them out, and placed them in a culture medium of a hundred bacteria.
After a period of time, as long as the colony around the paper disappears in a circle, it proves that the penicillin solution is useful!
These days, he repeatedly "discussed and researched" with Chen Chuanbai and others, and finally let them all understand this novel experimental idea.
Everyone is looking forward to it.
It would take time to wait for the results of the experiment, so Lou Yu called the medical team for another meeting.
"Old Chen, even if the experiment is successful, how should we take this potion if we get it?"
Chen Chuanbai frowned: "Your Highness, you mean that this medicine cannot be taken orally?"
Lou Yu said flickeringly: "Mold is inherently fragile, and it can be dispersed by the wind, and it falls into the stomach bag. I am afraid that it will be dissolved by acid water before it can take effect."
"Then what should I do?" Huo Qiongxiu frowned, "Can't smear the wound?"
Lou Yu shook his head: "The poison of the wind enters the body and melts into the flesh and blood. It only smears the surface, how can it save the inside?"
Everyone thinks so.
Chen Chuanbai suddenly said: "There is a method that can be tried, but the patient will suffer a lot."
"Grandpa is referring to using a bamboo tube to push the medicine into the intestines?" Chen Xuanshen asked.
The corners of Lou Yu's lips twitched slightly.
He checked various classics and knew that in order to allow the medicine to enter the body quickly, someone tried to use bamboo tubes and pistons for enema treatment.
Regardless of the effect of this method, it at least provided Lou Yu with a "syringe" idea.
His eyes lit up and he said: "So there is such a method. Since the wind poison invades the flesh and veins, can we push the medicine into the flesh and veins, so as to kill the wind poison more effectively?"
"This..." Chen Chuanbai laughed, "Your Highness, the human body's blood vessels are so delicate, how can you use such a method?"
Lou Yu pretended to be excited: "How will you know if you don't try!"
Before plastic was made, syringe barrels could be made of glass.Lou Yu couldn't make plastic, so he decided to make a syringe out of glass.
Using glass can also avoid a problem, the piston of the glass syringe can not use the rubber head.
He doesn't have rubber now.
Therefore, although it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to make a syringe with glass, it is not a problem for saving lives.
And he doesn't plan to mass-produce it yet.
Glass syringes are not difficult to make, but metal needles are difficult to make.
As far as he knows, during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, there was a "lost wax method" that could cast bronze utensils with extremely small inner diameters.
It stands to reason that the precision of Dasheng's casting process should be at a higher level.
He summoned Xu Sheng.
Xu Sheng has been leading the craftsmen to forge fine knives in secret, and he hasn't seen Lou Yu for a long time.
I was quite excited to be called here suddenly.
"The villain pays homage to His Highness."
He knelt down devoutly and made a big salute.
Lou Yu smiled gently: "Get up. I called you here today because I have an extremely important task for you."
"Your Highness, please order!" Xu Sheng said excitedly.
The extremely important task His Highness entrusted to him last time is enough to make his name go down in history.
Maybe this time we can witness another miracle!
Lou Yu asked seriously: "I want to create a needle with an inner diameter of less than a millimeter, do you think it is feasible?"
Xu Sheng thought for a while and asked, "Does Your Highness want to make hollow needles?"
"good."
"How detailed does Your Highness need?"
Lou Yu couldn't figure out the conversion between modern and ancient units of measurement, so he could only say, "The thinner the better, after all, it's meant to be used on people, and we should make the thinnest hollow needles possible."
When using it on humans, one must be cautious!
Xu Sheng looked serious, nodded and said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, the villain will definitely do his best!"
"Okay, if it's rough, don't throw it away, just bring it over and show me." Lou Yu ordered.
Thick needles can still be used on livestock.
"Yes!"
Lou Yu took out another blueprint and solemnly confessed: "This is the finished product I am going to make. The bottom is the needle, the top is the glass tube, and the piston. You take this blueprint to communicate and study with the glass craftsman in the kiln. I hope you Can work together to develop the finished product as soon as possible, don't let me down."
Xu Shengru held the treasure and said excitedly: "The villain must work harder!"
Spring plowing is over in a blink of an eye.
With the blessing of the Gyeongju Water Conservancy Project, the farmland in Gyeongju is basically well irrigated, and the seedlings in the fields are lush and lush, which is really gratifying.
He summoned Lu You, who was in charge of the project.
"How is the official road from Qingzhou Industrial Zone to Cangzhou Port?"
Lu You replied respectfully, "It's almost the end."
"Okay," Lou Yu said brightly, "The weather is warm now, which is suitable for paving the road."
He intends to use cement mixed with gravel to pave a cement road.
Nowadays, the roads in Dasheng are mainly dirt roads, which are not only rough and bumpy, but also become muddy when it rains, making it difficult for vehicles and horses to travel, which greatly affects the transportation efficiency.
In order to improve the efficiency of cargo transportation, Lou Yu made up his mind to build roads.
The streets in the new city are all paved with cement, and Lu You is no stranger to cement paving, so he took orders to go down.
Everything is on the right track, whether it is Gyeongju or Cangzhou.
It was just a spring day, Lou Yu was leaning on the deck chair, basking in the sun leisurely in the yard, and he didn't forget to use a silk handkerchief to cover his eyes from the light.
Just as he was drowsily asleep, a gust of wind suddenly rose, and the silk scarf on his eyes was blown away by the wind, and the bright sunlight probing his eyelids recklessly, making it impossible for him to fall asleep.
Lou Yu opened his eyes and stood up, about to reach out to catch him.
One hand suddenly held Sipa.
Under the golden streamer, the young man has a handsome face and soft eyes.
He was wearing a slim military uniform, tall and straight, like a bamboo like a pine.
Lou Yu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "When did you come?"
"Just here."
Lou Yu frowned and said, "Why didn't Erbi notify you?"
"Seeing that you were sleeping soundly, he couldn't bear to call you."
Huo Yan explained and handed Sipa back to him.
Lou Yu took it, put it on the armrest casually, leaned back lazily, and asked, "You came to see me for something?"
"Ah."
Huo Yan lowered his eyes, and his gaze fell on Lou Yu's hand.
That hand is slender and white, with a hidden jade light.
"His Highness thinks, how should Wang Dayong and others be arranged?"
Lou Yu was stunned.
right!
Before, he had asked Wang Dayong and others to buy and transport grain, and later he asked them to escort Yao Jin to the Western Regions to buy cotton. They were on the road almost all year round.
Now there is no need for someone to buy grain, and cotton is available, so they really have nothing to do.
Lou Yu almost forgot about them.
He sat up a little and asked, "What do you think?"
Huo Yan raised his eyes and stared into his eyes: "They have been in the army for many years, and they are all brave men with rich experience. I want them to enter the camp."
This entry into the camp really made them a part of the Gyeongju Army.
Before that, they could only be regarded as a grain transportation team at most, with an informal establishment.
Lou Yu thought for a while, and said: "They are indeed brave and good at fighting. They can be called heroes, even commanders. But they don't have military merits yet. If they are directly promoted, they may not be able to convince the public, but if they are only allowed to Being a low-level pawn humiliates their abilities and identities."
This thing is really tricky.
Huo Yan smiled handsomely: "His Royal Highness forgot the bow and arrow battalion and the cavalry battalion?"
These two big camps speak on the basis of professional skills.
Whoever is capable will be able to enter; whoever has high ability will be promoted.
Lou Yu's eyes lit up, why didn't he think of it just now!
"Okay, I will leave this matter to you!"
Huo Yan solemnly accepted the order, but did not leave immediately.
Lou Yu looked at him suspiciously: "Is there anything else?"
"I heard from Mr. Feng that His Highness has been disturbed by worries and thoughts recently, did you not sleep well?"
Lou Yu sighed lightly: "It's an old problem."
This is true for him, the more he thinks in his mind, the easier it is to lose sleep at night, but he can't help thinking about it.
No matter how much Anshenxiang you order, it's useless.
Because of this, he gave himself a day off, and instead of going to the government office, he lay down in the courtyard to rest in the sun.
Huo Yan said: "Master Feng can massage for you, it will help you sleep."
According to corrective techniques in place, it will make people relax and produce drowsiness.
Lou Yu shook his head: "I tried it, it doesn't work."
I don't know if his sleeping bug is too stubborn, or Feng Erbi is not good enough, anyway, he just can't sleep.
Lou Yu is also worried.
He is only 16 years old, and he suffers from premature aging due to insomnia every day.
Huo Yan considered it carefully: "If Your Highness doesn't dislike it, I'm willing to give it a try."
Lou Yu opened his eyes wide in surprise, those eyes were black and white, and there was a bit of eagerness hidden in them.
"You mean, you come to massage me and help me fall asleep?"
"Yeah." Huo Yan chuckled.
Lou Yu stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder. Although he was pleasantly surprised, he still asked, "Will it delay you too much?"
You must know that Huo Yan is also very busy every day.
"will not."
The two agreed on the time for tonight's massage, and Huo Yan left the East Courtyard.
The spring night is slightly cool, and the moonlight melts.
Lou Yu took a shower carefully, changed into clean obscene clothes, and sat on the couch while Feng Erbi wiped his wet hair.
It was facing away from the bedroom door.
When Huo Yan came, he saw His Royal Highness's black hair pouring down, covering his well-proportioned back.
"Your Highness, Commander Huo is here." Feng Erbi said mischievously in a low voice.
He doesn't mind Huo Yan stealing his job at all, as long as His Highness can sleep well, he can do anything.
Before Lou Yu responded, Huo Yan said, "Master Feng, let me come."
"No, didn't you say it's correct."
Feng Erbi shook his head and refused.
Huo Yan was so strong, he was worried that Huo Yan would scratch His Highness's scalp.
"There are also some acupuncture points on the head, and I will massage them for His Highness." Huo Yan said lightly.
Feng Erbi then handed him the cotton towel for wiping hair, "Then leave it to Commander Huo."
He smiled and exited the room.
Before Huo Yan could do it, Lou Yu turned around and asked with a smile: "Does Huo Erlang feel wronged by doing these jobs of serving people?"
Under the bright candlelight, the young son's eyes are picturesque, handsome as jade.
Xu Shi had just finished taking a bath, the young man's eyes were full, his cheeks were vaguely stained with a layer of pink, his black hair was scattered down, his face was romantic and peachy.
Huo Yan's heart was stabbed suddenly.
He quickly lowered his eyes, picked up his black hair and wiped it carefully, and replied in a low voice:
"You are the lord."
Lou Yu turned his head back, the clarity in his eyes dissipated, gradually casting a layer of darkness.
He's not an emotional novice, he never thought that Huo Erlang would commit himself to doing these things just because he was the lord with such an arrogance.
He pretended to laugh and tease: "Could it be possible that in the future, whoever you think is the lord will wipe their hair?"
The hands of the people behind him paused for wiping their hair.
"There will be no other lords."
Huo Yan's tone was flat but firm, revealing a sense of seriousness and devotion, which made Lou Yu speechless for a while.
The room fell silent.
After a long time, Huo Yan broke the silence: "Okay."
It's dry hair.
Lou Yu turned around slowly, facing Huo Yan, only then realized that Huo Yan had changed into another suit.
He was wearing a loose and elegant robe, which lost a bit of the sharpness of the military uniform and added a bit of grace and elegance.
There are gangsters, like cuts are like consultations, like cuts like grinding.
Facing his deep and dark gaze, Lou Yu's heart jumped suddenly, and he subconsciously looked away, as if he had stolen something from someone else, feeling a little guilty.
"Correct it."
He was lying on the couch with his head buried in his arms.
Before that, he was often served by Feng Erbi, and he didn't feel strange, but for some reason, when Huo Yan's hand touched his shoulder, he shivered.
It has to be said that Huo Yan's technique is really good.
After a while, there was a constant warm current flowing from the shoulders and back, and some stagnant tendons seemed to come alive.
The astringency all over his body has disappeared.
The whole body was warm, making him drowsy.
"Your Highness, it's time to stand up." Huo Yan said gently.
Lou Yu turned over subconsciously and obediently, facing Huo Yan's drooping temple hair.
The candle made a "cracking" sound.
Lou Yu was about to turn his head away, but was grabbed by a pair of slender hands.
The boy leaned over, and gently massaged the acupuncture points on his head with his fingers, comforting him again and again.
Lou Yu opened his eyes and met Huo Yan's gaze.
The candle made another "crack".
Lou Yu said softly, "It's time to cut the candles."
"I go."
Huo Yan got up, took the small silver scissors, and cut off the blackened candle wicks one by one.
Lou Yu was lying on the couch, looking at his quiet figure cutting the candle, he suddenly felt a little calm, as if the worries of the day were gradually drifting away from him.
He watched and slowly closed his eyes.
Huo Yan has extraordinary hearing, hearing that his breathing has become calm and steady, he couldn't help but bow his head and laugh silently.
He put down the silver scissors, walked to the couch, and quietly covered him with a thin quilt.
Feng Erbi was waiting outside the door, seeing Huo Yan coming out, he hurriedly asked in a low voice: "So fast?"
"His Highness is asleep."
Feng Erbi couldn't help but gave a thumbs up: "You are still amazing, you can make His Highness fall asleep so quickly."
Huo Yan's expression was hidden in the dark: "I'll go back first, Your Highness will worry about Lao Feng."
"Okay," Feng Erbi asked, "Are you coming tomorrow night?"
Huo Yan paused, Fang said: "Your Highness asked me to come, and I will come."
The next morning, Lou Yu woke up satisfied.
He hadn't slept so soundly in a long time!
The sun was shining outside the window, and it was not the time for him to get up on weekdays, but he felt extraordinarily clear-headed.
Thinking of Huo Yan's actions and eyes last night, Lou Yu couldn't help but let out a low sigh and rolled over and over on the bed.
On weekdays, although Huo Yan's performance is not obvious, Lou Yu more or less notices something different.
This feeling was especially evident in the inner room last night.
On the one hand, he believed in his intuition, on the other hand, he was worried that he might have misunderstood.
This kind of thing can't even be asked.
He lay on the bed for a while before getting up.
Feng Erbi came in to wait on him, seeing him in high spirits, he couldn't help but happily said: "Your Highness slept well last night?"
"Oh, that's alright."
"Commander Huo is still very good," Feng Erbi asked with a smile, "Your Highness, do you want Commander Huo to correct you tonight?"
This stopped Lou Yu from asking.
With Huo Yan's help, he did sleep well, but he felt a little awkward in his heart, and didn't know how to answer for a while.
Then he asked, "Did he say anything when he left last night?"
Feng Erbi said honestly: "He said that as long as His Highness asks him to come, he will come."
"Oh."
Lou Yu Shensi finished his breakfast and went to work in the government office.
Lu You came to report: "Your Highness, the expansion of Cangzhou Harbor has been completed, and the dry dock has also been completed."
The host did not respond for the first half of the day.
Lu You couldn't help but secretly raised his head and looked at His Royal Highness behind the table.
The dignified and dignified son of the young prince in the usual days is now resting on his hands, looking down at the documents on the case, with an appearance of wandering in the sky.
Lu You cautiously reminded: "Your Highness?"
Lou Yu suddenly came back to his senses, and coughed lightly: "I already know what Lu Sigong said. Now that everything has been built, the shipbuilding and ship repair and maintenance can be carried out in the dry dock in the future, saving a lot of labor and effort."
"Your Highness is so talented, you actually came up with such a plan." Lu You praised sincerely.
Lou Yu was a little embarrassed, he was just picking up people's teeth.
The great ones are the real inventors.
"Since it has been built, let's organize a fleet to ship goods by sea. The shipyard should also recruit more craftsmen and build more large ships."
"Yes."
With Lou Yu's order, Gyeongju Industrial Zone began to get busy.
There is an endless stream of convoys transporting goods to Cangzhou.
The port of Cangzhou was unprecedentedly grand, and one after another large ships set sail from the port. They were loaded with goods and sailed to the far south.
Exquisite glass products are favored by the common people, and a "glass boom" was set off in the south for a while.
Gyeongju jade paper and cheap cloth from Gyeongju are also selling well in the south.
The fleet exchanged these goods for a large amount of rice, and then went north to return to the port of Cangzhou to start the next round of loading and voyage.
The cycle goes on and on, bringing a steady stream of vitality to Gyeongju and Cangzhou.
Lou Yu's first penicillin experiment was unsuccessful, but the syringe was made!
Although the finished product is not as modern as it is, the manufacturing process takes a long time, and it is not easy to maintain and store, but it is better than nothing.
He rewarded the artisans heavily.
I believe that with their wisdom, the craftsmanship will become more and more proficient in the future.
The artisan team was overjoyed, but the medical team didn't feel discouraged.
Wind-toxin disease has gone through thousands of years and has not yet found a diagnosis and treatment method. How can a good medicine be developed all of a sudden?
At least now there is a good way of thinking.
Chen Chuanbai has been researching for decades, and he has an intuition that if he continues to study according to His Royal Highness's thinking, maybe they can really find a cure!
Lou Yu explained to them: "There are many kinds of molds in the world. You can try different strains to find the one with the most output and the best effect. As for the germs, you can also test the pus from different wounds and gangrene."
The medical team humbly accepted the suggestion.
They are benevolent doctors, and while treating the wounded, they take time to enter the laboratory for research every day.
Lou Yu will participate in it whenever he is free, and try his best to operate the experiment proficiently.
It's not a bad thing to have a skill by your side.
The time has turned to summer, and the farmlands in Gyeongju and Cangzhou are lush and lush, and the crops are growing extremely gratifying.
The faces of the people in the two states are filled with hopeful smiles.
Lou Yu himself suffered from bitter summer, coupled with many worries, he tossed and turned in bed at night and couldn't fall asleep.
Since Huo Yan corrected him last time, he didn't let Huo Yan continue.
Perhaps the effect was remarkable that time, and Lou Yu's sleep at night was much better.
But I can't sleep again tonight.
The moon is in the middle of the sky, and everything is silent.
Lou Yu simply got up, lit candles by the moonlight, and began to practice calligraphy at his desk.
Practicing calligraphy can calm the mind and get rid of distracting thoughts.
Although he was as light as possible, he still woke up Feng Erbi who was sleeping outside.
Feng Erbi came in wearing obscene clothes, and seeing Lou Yu like this, he frowned and said distressedly: "Your Highness, can't sleep again?"
Lou Yu smiled, "I just think too much."
If you think too much, your brain will become excited, and when your brain is excited, you will easily suffer from insomnia.
Feng Erbi's eyes were slightly red: "Your Highness hurts so much."
Lou Yu sighed, but there was nothing he could do.
In modern times, he sleeps very well.
Feng Erbi suggested: "Why don't you give His Highness a massage to help you sleep?"
"No, you go to sleep."
Lou Yu doesn't feel sleepy at all now, no matter how much he presses, he won't be able to fall asleep.
"I won't sleep anymore, I will accompany Your Highness."
Feng Erbi simply sat by the desk and rubbed ink for him.
Lou Yu followed him.
After practicing a word, he took out another piece of paper.
"Your Highness, I saw Commander Huo was there before, and you slept soundly. Why don't you let him press it for you again tomorrow?"
Feng Erbi almost turned gray with worry because of Lou Yu's sleep.
Lou Yu paused his pen and wrote a word in silence, neither saying yes nor no.
It seems that he and Huo Yan haven't seen each other for a long time.
The barracks system is getting more and more perfect, and there are many things that Lou Yu doesn't need to ask himself. Generally, there are no particularly important things, and the generals in the battalion will handle them by themselves.
Huo Yan has not taken the initiative to come to the East Hospital for a long time.
Feng Erbi automatically interpreted his silence as "acceptance", and the next morning, after serving Lou Yu, he ran to Huo Yan.
Huo Yan was dressed in military uniform, Xiao Xiao was solemn.
"Master Feng?"
Standing in the barracks, Feng Erbi sighed deeply, his eyes full of worry: "Commander Huo, has he ever heard of 'Huiji will be hurt'?"
Huo Yan's eyebrows tightened: "Your Highness, he..."
He is very clear about what it means that Hui Ji will be hurt.
He is also very clear about who Feng Erbi is talking about.
"Commander Huo, Your Highness stayed up all night last night, practicing writing and meditating non-stop, I feel really uncomfortable. You only pressed the button for a while before His Highness fell asleep, or you should go again tonight."
Huo Yan couldn't wait until night, he got up suddenly and walked out of the camp.
Feng Erbi quickly followed him.
"Where is Your Highness?"
"Go to the government office."
Huo Yan rode his horse straight to the government office.
In the inner hall of the government office, Lou Yu was looking through the official documents submitted by Cangzhou, when he heard a report from the office worker outside the door: "Your Highness, Commander Huo is out to see you."
Lou Yu's heart skipped a beat, he paused for a few breaths, and said calmly, "Let him in."
As soon as the words fell, the door of the inner hall was pushed open, and Huo Yanxuan stepped in with big strides in his red belt.
Then close the door directly.
Lou Yu: "..."
What's the matter with this man?What are you doing with so much momentum?
Huo Yan stopped one step away from the table, very measured.
The two stared at each other in silence for a while, Lou Yu was the first to lose.
he pretends to be indifferent
As a boatman, Miao Hai naturally went to work in a shipyard by the sea.
The owner of the shipyard was ransacked by the rebels because he was a wealthy family in the city, and the entire family was killed by the rebels. It was extremely miserable.
After the Qing army entered the city, there was no one in charge of the shipyard, so it was taken over by the government.
Now the person in charge is from Gyeongju, and he is quite easy-going.
The steward told them: His Royal Highness Prince Qing will hire a large number of boatmen to transport goods to the south after the beginning of spring, so the ship must be repaired as soon as possible.
Miao Hai and the others rolled up their sleeves and worked hard.
Fortunately, the treatment given by His Royal Highness is quite good.
Not only the meal is full, but also the meat!
They eat well and work naturally with strength.Sometimes if you do a good job, you will be rewarded with two more pieces of meat.
Miao Hai would save the meat and take it home for his wife and daughter to eat.
After all, there are only a few people in Cangzhou who have the strength to work.
What about the remaining old, weak, women and children?
The government stipulates that children under the age of ten, elderly people over the age of 65, and pregnant women can temporarily go to the government to receive rations, and then deduct them after this year's autumn harvest.
Therefore, although Miao Hai can't get monthly money, his wife can subsidize himself by washing clothes, and his daughter can receive rations.
As long as the family can fill their stomachs.
He is already satisfied.
If it weren't for the Qing army, I don't know what Cangzhou would have become.
"Ah Hai! Get off work! Let's go to eat, I don't know what to eat today!"
Almost all of their boatmen, laborers who expanded the port, and artisans who built dry docks gathered in one place, and everyone ate together in the "canteen".
This "dining hall" is also a feature of Gyeongju.
He also heard that the Gyeongju Industrial Zone used to have only one canteen, but when the number of workers increased, another canteen was built.
Their canteen was temporarily built to provide them with two meals a day.
Just as they were queuing up for dinner, there was a sudden commotion not far away.
Everyone was talking.
"What happened?"
"It seems that someone at the port didn't pay attention. He hit his foot while tamping the earth, and the blood was... tsk."
"Ah? Hit your foot? This is terrible! Does it matter?"
"I don't know wow."
"I hope it's okay, otherwise, life will be difficult in the future."
"Don't talk about the future, just talk about now, the injury is like that, the doctor doesn't want money?"
"That's right, how can there be money to see a doctor and take medicine?"
When Miao Hai heard this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it was too miserable.
Injury to the foot means that you can't work for a short period of time, and if you can't work, you won't have food. Isn't this just waiting to die?
Not to mention taking money to see a doctor.
Just when everyone felt the same way and sighed, there were cheers again.
"What's wrong with this?"
"I gonna go see."
"I'm back! How's it going? What's the matter?"
"Don't worry, you guys. I heard from the supervisor that this is a work-related injury and you can apply for compensation!"
"Compensation! Is it money? How much can I get?"
"It's not clear, let's see the specific injury."
"This Gyeongju steward is really good!"
"This is the rule set by His Royal Highness Gyeongju!"
"His Royal Highness is so kind!"
Miao Hai thought so deeply.
What kind of fairy is His Royal Highness?
The Immortal Prince had some free time recently, so he had a whim and planned to do an experiment.
This experiment is a bit shocking, but if it is successful, it will definitely be a pioneering work!
He wanted to see if penicillin could be produced by the soil method.
Lou Yu has read many time-travel novels, and penicillin can be said to be one of the most popular studies for time-travelers.
Once this thing is researched, it can save the lives of tens of thousands of people.
Lou Yu likes to plan for a rainy day when doing things, and it's okay to do an experiment while he has time.
Maybe it can be researched!
He first ordered the kiln workers to make a whole set of glassware, and then called Chen Chuanbai.
"Old Chen, you have practiced medicine for decades, have you ever seen someone die from trauma?"
Chen Chuanbai was taken aback: "Could it be that your Highness is talking about the invasion of wind and poison?"
Lou Yu nodded.
People are prone to bacterial infection after injury. Before the invention of penicillin, unless the immunity was strong, once the wound was infected, few people could really survive it.
"Does Mr. Chen have any research on the invasion of wind poison?" Lou Yu asked solemnly.
Chen Chuanbai said with emotion: "As for the disease of wind-toxin invasion, the old man has read many medical books and studied for most of his life, but he has not been able to find a good medicine. I am really ashamed!"
"Mr. Chen, don't blame yourself," Lou Yusu Rong said, "You must also know that since ancient times, the number of soldiers who died on the battlefield is far less than the number of people who died from wind and poison. These soldiers in Gyeongju are willing to bleed and sacrifice for Gyeongju. As the son of Gyeongju, I also want to do something for them."
Of course, he didn't only think about the soldiers of Gyeongju. The reason why he said this was because it was more suitable for his status as the lord of Gyeongju.
Any hero must hope that his soldiers are healthy and healthy.
Chen Chuanbai thought he understood his thoughts, and said: "Your Highness is sympathetic to the soldiers, and this old man appreciates it, but this old man really has no cure for the disease caused by the invasion of wind and poison."
As a doctor, everyone wants to save more people's lives, but sometimes there is really more than enough.
Lou Yu showed melancholy, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "I read some ancient books before, and I saw a folk prescription, which said to use mold seeds from fruits and vegetables to smear wounds, which may help patients resist wind poison."
He's not making this up.
In ancient times, many doctors did try this method, perhaps because of a chance, a certain doctor ran into a dead mouse and saved the patient with this method, and everyone followed suit.
But the doctors didn't know the reason, so they thought that the mold might be able to resist the wind poison, but whether they could survive was left to fate.
Applying the mold seed directly has only a very small chance of saving the patient, and it is more likely that the infection will be worse and the patient will die faster.
This is a gamble.
Chen Chuanbai sighed deeply: "It is true, but there are only a handful of people who can be saved by this method."
He himself is not willing to follow this method.
Lou Yu suddenly said with great interest: "Since this method has a certain effect, it means that there must be some principles of treating patients in it. If we can understand the principles, wouldn't it benefit all people?"
"Your Highness, what do you mean..." Chen Chuanbai was both surprised and delighted.
Lou Yu smiled and said, "Why don't we start with mold?"
Standing up, Chen Chuanbai bowed: "Your Highness has a heart for the common people, how can I refuse?"
Regardless of whether this attempt can be realized or not, he must thank His Highness for the sake of the common people in the world.
Your Highness is truly admirable!
Preparation of penicillin can not be completed overnight.
Lou Yu summoned a group of doctors, including Chen Chuanbai, Chen Xuanshen, and Huo Qiong, to gather in the chemical factory.
When building a chemical plant, he deliberately asked someone to build a laboratory.
There are a number of glass containers neatly placed inside, all of which have been boiled in boiling water.
"Scrophulariae, Arjun, I think Mr. Chen has mentioned to you that we will study how to treat wind-toxin invasion disease in this laboratory in the future."
Chen Xuanshen looked calm, but his eyes were burning hot: "Your Highness has the ambition to reach the sky, and Scrophulariae will definitely live up to His Highness's trust."
Huo Qiong also said firmly: "Your Highness, the disease of wind-toxin invasion has plagued doctors for thousands of years. If we can research it, we can save the lives of tens of thousands of people!"
The rest of the doctors all nodded in agreement.
Lou Yu asked solemnly: "Then have you ever thought about why there is a disease of wind poison invasion?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, the invasion of wind poison is the invasion of wind poison, why is there any reason?
Seeing them like this, Lou Yu was not discouraged, and continued to guide them:
"The reason why wind poison is called wind poison is because most doctors think that there is toxin intrusion outside the wound, causing the patient to be poisoned and die? Since arsenic, snake venom, etc. all have treatments, why can't there be no wind poison? "
Chen Chuanbai nodded: "What Your Highness said is very true, but we can't see and touch this wind poison, it's really hard to do it."
"How can you not see it?"
Lou Yu smiled and asked: "Our human body has damaged wounds and rotten flesh. Although it is different from steamed buns, rotten fruits and vegetables, what is the difference in essence?"
"It's just that the mold on their bodies can be seen, and the germs in our wounds have invaded the flesh and blood, so we can't see it."
What he said was quite simple, and he didn't have any medical skills, but Chen Chuanbai and the others could understand what he said.
Huo Qiong said: "Since you can't see it, how can you prescribe the right medicine?"
She had always been convinced of Lou Yu, and didn't think he was aimlessly targeting, so she listened very carefully.
Lou Yu smiled and said, "It's not necessarily invisible."
Penicillin was discovered by accident.
The discoverer extracted staphylococci from patients and cultured them into colonies.On a very accidental day, an unknown mold floated in from the window and fell into the culture medium, killing some colonies, which caught his attention.
One or two bacteria are naturally invisible, but the colony is visible to the naked eye.
He prepared a hundred glass flat bottom bowls, all of which were filled with broth. To prevent the broth from being easily spilled, Lou Yu added some gel boiled from the hooves of livestock to make it a hundred agar medium.
The nutritional requirements of Staphylococcus are not high, and in the broth medium, it can generally show a state of uniform growth within 24 hours.
This kind of bacteria is pyogenic coccus, which is widely distributed. It is not only easy to produce on wounds, but also exists on mucous membranes in animals, so it is very convenient to take.
However, in order to be more convincing, Lou Yu asked Chen Chuanbai and others to extract some pus from the patient's wound and put it into the culture medium.
He has already informed everyone about the idea of the experiment, and although they seem to understand but do not understand, they all listen to his orders.
After a day and a night, they were amazed to find that some orange things appeared in the one hundred glass bowls.
Although Chen Chuanbai was well-informed, he couldn't help being shocked by these bacterial colonies.
Lou Yu said with a smile: "These are all bacteria that cause illnesses. They are invisible to the naked eye, but they are very capable of multiplying. However, they can produce a large family day and night. Once there are more of them, can't they be seen?"
The bacterial culture medium is ready, and the penicillin must be prepared next.
Lou Yu asked them to extract Penicillium from moldy steamed buns or fruits and vegetables, and put them into another prepared culture medium.
Let it sit for another week.
To obtain a penicillin solution, other materials need to be prepared.
Distilled water is indispensable.
Water in nature contains a lot of impurities. Lou Yu does not have modern tools to purify the water easily.
He built a device to collect water vapor.
Boil water at the bottom of the utensil, place a concave glass jar on the top, fill it with cold water, and place a glass bowl under the lowest point of the glass jar.
After the water boils, the water vapor rises into the air and meets the cold glass at the top, where it condenses into water droplets. The water droplets slide to the concave point and drop little by little into the glass bowl below.
Impurities in the water will not turn into water vapor, so the water collected in this way can be called distilled water.
In addition to distilled water, Lou Yu is also equipped with a funnel, clean cotton, vegetable oil, charcoal powder, vinegar, seaweed juice and a container for purification.
A week later, the Penicillium culture was completed, and there were large and small colonies scattered in the culture medium.
Everyone poured the culture medium through the filter cotton in the funnel into the glass jar at the bottom.
The glass jar is specially made, and an opening is opened on the bottom side of the jar, which is then plugged with a stopper.
After all the liquid in the culture medium was poured into the glass jar, Lou Yu asked someone to add vegetable oil.
"Penicillium is soluble in water and not in oil, so we can extract the water that contains Penicillium," he explained.
The remaining fat-soluble substances are dissolved by the oil in the upper layer.
When the oil and water were separated, he opened the plug on the lower head and used a vessel to catch the water flowing from the lower layer.
Next, mix charcoal powder with water and mix well, then wash with distilled water, rinse with vinegar and seaweed juice, so that the impurities can be washed away.
The last dripping liquid is a relatively pure penicillin solution.
"Your Highness, that's it?" Huo Qiong asked.
Lou Yu shook his head: "Where is this?"
Even if the penicillin solution is produced, the experiment may not be successful once.
He prepared a number of round pocket papers, dipped them in a solution of penicillin, took them out, and placed them in a culture medium of a hundred bacteria.
After a period of time, as long as the colony around the paper disappears in a circle, it proves that the penicillin solution is useful!
These days, he repeatedly "discussed and researched" with Chen Chuanbai and others, and finally let them all understand this novel experimental idea.
Everyone is looking forward to it.
It would take time to wait for the results of the experiment, so Lou Yu called the medical team for another meeting.
"Old Chen, even if the experiment is successful, how should we take this potion if we get it?"
Chen Chuanbai frowned: "Your Highness, you mean that this medicine cannot be taken orally?"
Lou Yu said flickeringly: "Mold is inherently fragile, and it can be dispersed by the wind, and it falls into the stomach bag. I am afraid that it will be dissolved by acid water before it can take effect."
"Then what should I do?" Huo Qiongxiu frowned, "Can't smear the wound?"
Lou Yu shook his head: "The poison of the wind enters the body and melts into the flesh and blood. It only smears the surface, how can it save the inside?"
Everyone thinks so.
Chen Chuanbai suddenly said: "There is a method that can be tried, but the patient will suffer a lot."
"Grandpa is referring to using a bamboo tube to push the medicine into the intestines?" Chen Xuanshen asked.
The corners of Lou Yu's lips twitched slightly.
He checked various classics and knew that in order to allow the medicine to enter the body quickly, someone tried to use bamboo tubes and pistons for enema treatment.
Regardless of the effect of this method, it at least provided Lou Yu with a "syringe" idea.
His eyes lit up and he said: "So there is such a method. Since the wind poison invades the flesh and veins, can we push the medicine into the flesh and veins, so as to kill the wind poison more effectively?"
"This..." Chen Chuanbai laughed, "Your Highness, the human body's blood vessels are so delicate, how can you use such a method?"
Lou Yu pretended to be excited: "How will you know if you don't try!"
Before plastic was made, syringe barrels could be made of glass.Lou Yu couldn't make plastic, so he decided to make a syringe out of glass.
Using glass can also avoid a problem, the piston of the glass syringe can not use the rubber head.
He doesn't have rubber now.
Therefore, although it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to make a syringe with glass, it is not a problem for saving lives.
And he doesn't plan to mass-produce it yet.
Glass syringes are not difficult to make, but metal needles are difficult to make.
As far as he knows, during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, there was a "lost wax method" that could cast bronze utensils with extremely small inner diameters.
It stands to reason that the precision of Dasheng's casting process should be at a higher level.
He summoned Xu Sheng.
Xu Sheng has been leading the craftsmen to forge fine knives in secret, and he hasn't seen Lou Yu for a long time.
I was quite excited to be called here suddenly.
"The villain pays homage to His Highness."
He knelt down devoutly and made a big salute.
Lou Yu smiled gently: "Get up. I called you here today because I have an extremely important task for you."
"Your Highness, please order!" Xu Sheng said excitedly.
The extremely important task His Highness entrusted to him last time is enough to make his name go down in history.
Maybe this time we can witness another miracle!
Lou Yu asked seriously: "I want to create a needle with an inner diameter of less than a millimeter, do you think it is feasible?"
Xu Sheng thought for a while and asked, "Does Your Highness want to make hollow needles?"
"good."
"How detailed does Your Highness need?"
Lou Yu couldn't figure out the conversion between modern and ancient units of measurement, so he could only say, "The thinner the better, after all, it's meant to be used on people, and we should make the thinnest hollow needles possible."
When using it on humans, one must be cautious!
Xu Sheng looked serious, nodded and said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, the villain will definitely do his best!"
"Okay, if it's rough, don't throw it away, just bring it over and show me." Lou Yu ordered.
Thick needles can still be used on livestock.
"Yes!"
Lou Yu took out another blueprint and solemnly confessed: "This is the finished product I am going to make. The bottom is the needle, the top is the glass tube, and the piston. You take this blueprint to communicate and study with the glass craftsman in the kiln. I hope you Can work together to develop the finished product as soon as possible, don't let me down."
Xu Shengru held the treasure and said excitedly: "The villain must work harder!"
Spring plowing is over in a blink of an eye.
With the blessing of the Gyeongju Water Conservancy Project, the farmland in Gyeongju is basically well irrigated, and the seedlings in the fields are lush and lush, which is really gratifying.
He summoned Lu You, who was in charge of the project.
"How is the official road from Qingzhou Industrial Zone to Cangzhou Port?"
Lu You replied respectfully, "It's almost the end."
"Okay," Lou Yu said brightly, "The weather is warm now, which is suitable for paving the road."
He intends to use cement mixed with gravel to pave a cement road.
Nowadays, the roads in Dasheng are mainly dirt roads, which are not only rough and bumpy, but also become muddy when it rains, making it difficult for vehicles and horses to travel, which greatly affects the transportation efficiency.
In order to improve the efficiency of cargo transportation, Lou Yu made up his mind to build roads.
The streets in the new city are all paved with cement, and Lu You is no stranger to cement paving, so he took orders to go down.
Everything is on the right track, whether it is Gyeongju or Cangzhou.
It was just a spring day, Lou Yu was leaning on the deck chair, basking in the sun leisurely in the yard, and he didn't forget to use a silk handkerchief to cover his eyes from the light.
Just as he was drowsily asleep, a gust of wind suddenly rose, and the silk scarf on his eyes was blown away by the wind, and the bright sunlight probing his eyelids recklessly, making it impossible for him to fall asleep.
Lou Yu opened his eyes and stood up, about to reach out to catch him.
One hand suddenly held Sipa.
Under the golden streamer, the young man has a handsome face and soft eyes.
He was wearing a slim military uniform, tall and straight, like a bamboo like a pine.
Lou Yu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "When did you come?"
"Just here."
Lou Yu frowned and said, "Why didn't Erbi notify you?"
"Seeing that you were sleeping soundly, he couldn't bear to call you."
Huo Yan explained and handed Sipa back to him.
Lou Yu took it, put it on the armrest casually, leaned back lazily, and asked, "You came to see me for something?"
"Ah."
Huo Yan lowered his eyes, and his gaze fell on Lou Yu's hand.
That hand is slender and white, with a hidden jade light.
"His Highness thinks, how should Wang Dayong and others be arranged?"
Lou Yu was stunned.
right!
Before, he had asked Wang Dayong and others to buy and transport grain, and later he asked them to escort Yao Jin to the Western Regions to buy cotton. They were on the road almost all year round.
Now there is no need for someone to buy grain, and cotton is available, so they really have nothing to do.
Lou Yu almost forgot about them.
He sat up a little and asked, "What do you think?"
Huo Yan raised his eyes and stared into his eyes: "They have been in the army for many years, and they are all brave men with rich experience. I want them to enter the camp."
This entry into the camp really made them a part of the Gyeongju Army.
Before that, they could only be regarded as a grain transportation team at most, with an informal establishment.
Lou Yu thought for a while, and said: "They are indeed brave and good at fighting. They can be called heroes, even commanders. But they don't have military merits yet. If they are directly promoted, they may not be able to convince the public, but if they are only allowed to Being a low-level pawn humiliates their abilities and identities."
This thing is really tricky.
Huo Yan smiled handsomely: "His Royal Highness forgot the bow and arrow battalion and the cavalry battalion?"
These two big camps speak on the basis of professional skills.
Whoever is capable will be able to enter; whoever has high ability will be promoted.
Lou Yu's eyes lit up, why didn't he think of it just now!
"Okay, I will leave this matter to you!"
Huo Yan solemnly accepted the order, but did not leave immediately.
Lou Yu looked at him suspiciously: "Is there anything else?"
"I heard from Mr. Feng that His Highness has been disturbed by worries and thoughts recently, did you not sleep well?"
Lou Yu sighed lightly: "It's an old problem."
This is true for him, the more he thinks in his mind, the easier it is to lose sleep at night, but he can't help thinking about it.
No matter how much Anshenxiang you order, it's useless.
Because of this, he gave himself a day off, and instead of going to the government office, he lay down in the courtyard to rest in the sun.
Huo Yan said: "Master Feng can massage for you, it will help you sleep."
According to corrective techniques in place, it will make people relax and produce drowsiness.
Lou Yu shook his head: "I tried it, it doesn't work."
I don't know if his sleeping bug is too stubborn, or Feng Erbi is not good enough, anyway, he just can't sleep.
Lou Yu is also worried.
He is only 16 years old, and he suffers from premature aging due to insomnia every day.
Huo Yan considered it carefully: "If Your Highness doesn't dislike it, I'm willing to give it a try."
Lou Yu opened his eyes wide in surprise, those eyes were black and white, and there was a bit of eagerness hidden in them.
"You mean, you come to massage me and help me fall asleep?"
"Yeah." Huo Yan chuckled.
Lou Yu stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder. Although he was pleasantly surprised, he still asked, "Will it delay you too much?"
You must know that Huo Yan is also very busy every day.
"will not."
The two agreed on the time for tonight's massage, and Huo Yan left the East Courtyard.
The spring night is slightly cool, and the moonlight melts.
Lou Yu took a shower carefully, changed into clean obscene clothes, and sat on the couch while Feng Erbi wiped his wet hair.
It was facing away from the bedroom door.
When Huo Yan came, he saw His Royal Highness's black hair pouring down, covering his well-proportioned back.
"Your Highness, Commander Huo is here." Feng Erbi said mischievously in a low voice.
He doesn't mind Huo Yan stealing his job at all, as long as His Highness can sleep well, he can do anything.
Before Lou Yu responded, Huo Yan said, "Master Feng, let me come."
"No, didn't you say it's correct."
Feng Erbi shook his head and refused.
Huo Yan was so strong, he was worried that Huo Yan would scratch His Highness's scalp.
"There are also some acupuncture points on the head, and I will massage them for His Highness." Huo Yan said lightly.
Feng Erbi then handed him the cotton towel for wiping hair, "Then leave it to Commander Huo."
He smiled and exited the room.
Before Huo Yan could do it, Lou Yu turned around and asked with a smile: "Does Huo Erlang feel wronged by doing these jobs of serving people?"
Under the bright candlelight, the young son's eyes are picturesque, handsome as jade.
Xu Shi had just finished taking a bath, the young man's eyes were full, his cheeks were vaguely stained with a layer of pink, his black hair was scattered down, his face was romantic and peachy.
Huo Yan's heart was stabbed suddenly.
He quickly lowered his eyes, picked up his black hair and wiped it carefully, and replied in a low voice:
"You are the lord."
Lou Yu turned his head back, the clarity in his eyes dissipated, gradually casting a layer of darkness.
He's not an emotional novice, he never thought that Huo Erlang would commit himself to doing these things just because he was the lord with such an arrogance.
He pretended to laugh and tease: "Could it be possible that in the future, whoever you think is the lord will wipe their hair?"
The hands of the people behind him paused for wiping their hair.
"There will be no other lords."
Huo Yan's tone was flat but firm, revealing a sense of seriousness and devotion, which made Lou Yu speechless for a while.
The room fell silent.
After a long time, Huo Yan broke the silence: "Okay."
It's dry hair.
Lou Yu turned around slowly, facing Huo Yan, only then realized that Huo Yan had changed into another suit.
He was wearing a loose and elegant robe, which lost a bit of the sharpness of the military uniform and added a bit of grace and elegance.
There are gangsters, like cuts are like consultations, like cuts like grinding.
Facing his deep and dark gaze, Lou Yu's heart jumped suddenly, and he subconsciously looked away, as if he had stolen something from someone else, feeling a little guilty.
"Correct it."
He was lying on the couch with his head buried in his arms.
Before that, he was often served by Feng Erbi, and he didn't feel strange, but for some reason, when Huo Yan's hand touched his shoulder, he shivered.
It has to be said that Huo Yan's technique is really good.
After a while, there was a constant warm current flowing from the shoulders and back, and some stagnant tendons seemed to come alive.
The astringency all over his body has disappeared.
The whole body was warm, making him drowsy.
"Your Highness, it's time to stand up." Huo Yan said gently.
Lou Yu turned over subconsciously and obediently, facing Huo Yan's drooping temple hair.
The candle made a "cracking" sound.
Lou Yu was about to turn his head away, but was grabbed by a pair of slender hands.
The boy leaned over, and gently massaged the acupuncture points on his head with his fingers, comforting him again and again.
Lou Yu opened his eyes and met Huo Yan's gaze.
The candle made another "crack".
Lou Yu said softly, "It's time to cut the candles."
"I go."
Huo Yan got up, took the small silver scissors, and cut off the blackened candle wicks one by one.
Lou Yu was lying on the couch, looking at his quiet figure cutting the candle, he suddenly felt a little calm, as if the worries of the day were gradually drifting away from him.
He watched and slowly closed his eyes.
Huo Yan has extraordinary hearing, hearing that his breathing has become calm and steady, he couldn't help but bow his head and laugh silently.
He put down the silver scissors, walked to the couch, and quietly covered him with a thin quilt.
Feng Erbi was waiting outside the door, seeing Huo Yan coming out, he hurriedly asked in a low voice: "So fast?"
"His Highness is asleep."
Feng Erbi couldn't help but gave a thumbs up: "You are still amazing, you can make His Highness fall asleep so quickly."
Huo Yan's expression was hidden in the dark: "I'll go back first, Your Highness will worry about Lao Feng."
"Okay," Feng Erbi asked, "Are you coming tomorrow night?"
Huo Yan paused, Fang said: "Your Highness asked me to come, and I will come."
The next morning, Lou Yu woke up satisfied.
He hadn't slept so soundly in a long time!
The sun was shining outside the window, and it was not the time for him to get up on weekdays, but he felt extraordinarily clear-headed.
Thinking of Huo Yan's actions and eyes last night, Lou Yu couldn't help but let out a low sigh and rolled over and over on the bed.
On weekdays, although Huo Yan's performance is not obvious, Lou Yu more or less notices something different.
This feeling was especially evident in the inner room last night.
On the one hand, he believed in his intuition, on the other hand, he was worried that he might have misunderstood.
This kind of thing can't even be asked.
He lay on the bed for a while before getting up.
Feng Erbi came in to wait on him, seeing him in high spirits, he couldn't help but happily said: "Your Highness slept well last night?"
"Oh, that's alright."
"Commander Huo is still very good," Feng Erbi asked with a smile, "Your Highness, do you want Commander Huo to correct you tonight?"
This stopped Lou Yu from asking.
With Huo Yan's help, he did sleep well, but he felt a little awkward in his heart, and didn't know how to answer for a while.
Then he asked, "Did he say anything when he left last night?"
Feng Erbi said honestly: "He said that as long as His Highness asks him to come, he will come."
"Oh."
Lou Yu Shensi finished his breakfast and went to work in the government office.
Lu You came to report: "Your Highness, the expansion of Cangzhou Harbor has been completed, and the dry dock has also been completed."
The host did not respond for the first half of the day.
Lu You couldn't help but secretly raised his head and looked at His Royal Highness behind the table.
The dignified and dignified son of the young prince in the usual days is now resting on his hands, looking down at the documents on the case, with an appearance of wandering in the sky.
Lu You cautiously reminded: "Your Highness?"
Lou Yu suddenly came back to his senses, and coughed lightly: "I already know what Lu Sigong said. Now that everything has been built, the shipbuilding and ship repair and maintenance can be carried out in the dry dock in the future, saving a lot of labor and effort."
"Your Highness is so talented, you actually came up with such a plan." Lu You praised sincerely.
Lou Yu was a little embarrassed, he was just picking up people's teeth.
The great ones are the real inventors.
"Since it has been built, let's organize a fleet to ship goods by sea. The shipyard should also recruit more craftsmen and build more large ships."
"Yes."
With Lou Yu's order, Gyeongju Industrial Zone began to get busy.
There is an endless stream of convoys transporting goods to Cangzhou.
The port of Cangzhou was unprecedentedly grand, and one after another large ships set sail from the port. They were loaded with goods and sailed to the far south.
Exquisite glass products are favored by the common people, and a "glass boom" was set off in the south for a while.
Gyeongju jade paper and cheap cloth from Gyeongju are also selling well in the south.
The fleet exchanged these goods for a large amount of rice, and then went north to return to the port of Cangzhou to start the next round of loading and voyage.
The cycle goes on and on, bringing a steady stream of vitality to Gyeongju and Cangzhou.
Lou Yu's first penicillin experiment was unsuccessful, but the syringe was made!
Although the finished product is not as modern as it is, the manufacturing process takes a long time, and it is not easy to maintain and store, but it is better than nothing.
He rewarded the artisans heavily.
I believe that with their wisdom, the craftsmanship will become more and more proficient in the future.
The artisan team was overjoyed, but the medical team didn't feel discouraged.
Wind-toxin disease has gone through thousands of years and has not yet found a diagnosis and treatment method. How can a good medicine be developed all of a sudden?
At least now there is a good way of thinking.
Chen Chuanbai has been researching for decades, and he has an intuition that if he continues to study according to His Royal Highness's thinking, maybe they can really find a cure!
Lou Yu explained to them: "There are many kinds of molds in the world. You can try different strains to find the one with the most output and the best effect. As for the germs, you can also test the pus from different wounds and gangrene."
The medical team humbly accepted the suggestion.
They are benevolent doctors, and while treating the wounded, they take time to enter the laboratory for research every day.
Lou Yu will participate in it whenever he is free, and try his best to operate the experiment proficiently.
It's not a bad thing to have a skill by your side.
The time has turned to summer, and the farmlands in Gyeongju and Cangzhou are lush and lush, and the crops are growing extremely gratifying.
The faces of the people in the two states are filled with hopeful smiles.
Lou Yu himself suffered from bitter summer, coupled with many worries, he tossed and turned in bed at night and couldn't fall asleep.
Since Huo Yan corrected him last time, he didn't let Huo Yan continue.
Perhaps the effect was remarkable that time, and Lou Yu's sleep at night was much better.
But I can't sleep again tonight.
The moon is in the middle of the sky, and everything is silent.
Lou Yu simply got up, lit candles by the moonlight, and began to practice calligraphy at his desk.
Practicing calligraphy can calm the mind and get rid of distracting thoughts.
Although he was as light as possible, he still woke up Feng Erbi who was sleeping outside.
Feng Erbi came in wearing obscene clothes, and seeing Lou Yu like this, he frowned and said distressedly: "Your Highness, can't sleep again?"
Lou Yu smiled, "I just think too much."
If you think too much, your brain will become excited, and when your brain is excited, you will easily suffer from insomnia.
Feng Erbi's eyes were slightly red: "Your Highness hurts so much."
Lou Yu sighed, but there was nothing he could do.
In modern times, he sleeps very well.
Feng Erbi suggested: "Why don't you give His Highness a massage to help you sleep?"
"No, you go to sleep."
Lou Yu doesn't feel sleepy at all now, no matter how much he presses, he won't be able to fall asleep.
"I won't sleep anymore, I will accompany Your Highness."
Feng Erbi simply sat by the desk and rubbed ink for him.
Lou Yu followed him.
After practicing a word, he took out another piece of paper.
"Your Highness, I saw Commander Huo was there before, and you slept soundly. Why don't you let him press it for you again tomorrow?"
Feng Erbi almost turned gray with worry because of Lou Yu's sleep.
Lou Yu paused his pen and wrote a word in silence, neither saying yes nor no.
It seems that he and Huo Yan haven't seen each other for a long time.
The barracks system is getting more and more perfect, and there are many things that Lou Yu doesn't need to ask himself. Generally, there are no particularly important things, and the generals in the battalion will handle them by themselves.
Huo Yan has not taken the initiative to come to the East Hospital for a long time.
Feng Erbi automatically interpreted his silence as "acceptance", and the next morning, after serving Lou Yu, he ran to Huo Yan.
Huo Yan was dressed in military uniform, Xiao Xiao was solemn.
"Master Feng?"
Standing in the barracks, Feng Erbi sighed deeply, his eyes full of worry: "Commander Huo, has he ever heard of 'Huiji will be hurt'?"
Huo Yan's eyebrows tightened: "Your Highness, he..."
He is very clear about what it means that Hui Ji will be hurt.
He is also very clear about who Feng Erbi is talking about.
"Commander Huo, Your Highness stayed up all night last night, practicing writing and meditating non-stop, I feel really uncomfortable. You only pressed the button for a while before His Highness fell asleep, or you should go again tonight."
Huo Yan couldn't wait until night, he got up suddenly and walked out of the camp.
Feng Erbi quickly followed him.
"Where is Your Highness?"
"Go to the government office."
Huo Yan rode his horse straight to the government office.
In the inner hall of the government office, Lou Yu was looking through the official documents submitted by Cangzhou, when he heard a report from the office worker outside the door: "Your Highness, Commander Huo is out to see you."
Lou Yu's heart skipped a beat, he paused for a few breaths, and said calmly, "Let him in."
As soon as the words fell, the door of the inner hall was pushed open, and Huo Yanxuan stepped in with big strides in his red belt.
Then close the door directly.
Lou Yu: "..."
What's the matter with this man?What are you doing with so much momentum?
Huo Yan stopped one step away from the table, very measured.
The two stared at each other in silence for a while, Lou Yu was the first to lose.
he pretends to be indifferent
