After the opening ceremony, the National Medical Center entered the formal process. Most of the people who first arrived were wealthy people, while the rest of the people chose to wait and see for the time being.
Xu Mochen is not in a hurry about this. After all, the implementation of a policy takes time to ferment.
Zhang Tongyuan and others welcomed him into the lobby, where there were already twenty or thirty people standing and waiting.
Li Wenhong stepped forward to report and handed over a letter: "Your Majesty, this is a letter from our ancestors."
Xu Mochen understood. He took the letter and put it away. His eyes swept over the dozens of young people in the hall.
"These are the best of the younger generation of our Li family," Li Wenhong explained. "They are quite proficient in medical skills. In addition, they have also done some research on some elixir refining techniques."
As he spoke, he lowered his voice: "They are not immortal cultivators, your Majesty, don't worry."
The Li family in Qizhou is closely related to immortal cultivators, but their direct descendants are all from the human race.
However, they have some exposure to simple spells, so their abilities are better.
The purpose of Xu Mochen's gathering of these people was to prepare for the establishment of a medical research institute.
In this era, medical skills are mainly based on traditional Chinese medicine. Xu Mochen is not denying traditional Chinese medicine.
Traditional Chinese medicine treats the root cause and requires a relatively long course of treatment.
In addition, traditional Chinese medicine relies heavily on medicinal materials. The planting, picking, processing, transportation and storage of medicinal materials, etc., all require corresponding time costs.
Nowadays, the troubled times have just ended, and large-scale cultivation of medicinal materials has not been established. In addition, some precious medicinal materials have to be harvested in deep mountains and wild forests. Due to various conditions, Xu Mochen believes that it will be difficult to promote it on a large scale across the country.
Western medicine, on the other hand, treats the symptoms, is fast, some drugs can be mass-produced, are small in size and have multiple functions, and are more versatile and popular.
Xu Mochen's purpose in letting these people come is to prepare to enter the field of Western medicine.
It's just that Western medicine is also a large system, and it's difficult to get it right in one step. Some research theories and the development of derivative drugs also require processes.
However, the fact that people in this world can cultivate immortality shows that there are many corresponding spells.
First of all, he aimed at the production of antibiotic drugs, which is actually the extraction and production of effective fungi.
If there are immortal cultivators from the magician sect who can refine elixirs to help, it may be faster.
But this is a matter of the human race. Xu Mochen believes that it will ultimately be based on the human race.
In this way, the fate of the country will be more closely bound to oneself, and at the same time, it will prevent immortal cultivators from adding magic seals to Western medicine, which binds human beings to obtain immortality just like previous Chinese medicine prescriptions.
For new channels, it is natural to cut off all ties with the immortal cultivators. Only in this way, after slowly accumulating, can we gain the power to talk to the immortal cultivators.
Don't be in a hurry, just take it step by step.
Xu Mochen casually asked the young man a few questions and answered them very well. He said with satisfaction: "Let's arrange accommodation first and detailed work tasks. Princess Yong'an will send you a message when the time comes."
"Before this, everyone needs to help collect some things," Xu Mochen pondered, "mainly moldy citrus fruits, the kind that produce penicillium."
Tang Derun was a little confused after hearing this. What is your Majesty doing with the corrupt Citrus.
Zhao Lingbo did not have any doubts: "Your Majesty, I have seen some vegetables and meat, and some are green. Is that okay?"
"Everything is fine," Xu Mochen nodded. She is indeed a talented woman who can draw inferences from one instance to another. "But the number needs to be larger.
In addition, Li Yuanpan, please find a way to collect a batch of corn, I will use it when the time comes."
Li Wenhong was full of doubts. The yield of corn in Daqian was not high, but once the emperor opened his mouth, he would do it no matter how difficult it was.
As long as you spend a little more money, you can still get it.
"Your Majesty," Zhang Tongyuan tried, "Your Majesty wants these things to prepare..."
Xu Mochen smiled: "By researching new drugs, I will open up a whole new world for my loved ones."
Tang Derun understood immediately upon hearing this that His Majesty must be preparing to research drugs that can cure his hidden illness.
We are about to start a harem, and we need to handle it well.
As a subordinate, I see through things without telling them.
After the matter was settled, Xu Mochen drove back to the palace.
When they arrived at the Imperial Study Room, Tang Derun was given a new task.
"Find a group of reliable embroiderers, get some hardwood or fruit shells, put them in a pot and burn them over an open fire," Xu Mochen asked him to write down, "Wait until there is no smoke, and then wait for the hardwoods to carbonize.
Then wash it with cold water, drain it, grind it into powder and air-dry it."
Tang Derun is no longer sensitive to Xu Mochen's words of unclear meaning from time to time.
After thinking about it, he still said too much: "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
"Activated carbon," Xu Mochen didn't hide it from him, "is used to extract penicillin from Penicillium.
Find a secluded place and ask the princess to take all the collected materials there.
It's best to have some defense. The embroidered clothes can't stop the immortal cultivators, but they should not be able to get in and out easily."
If the place where penicillin is produced is deliberately destroyed by immortal cultivators, Xu Mochen has nothing to do.
"Wei Chen will set up restrictions, but the level of Wei Chen is limited, and immortal cultivators above the foundation level cannot resist." Tang Derun said truthfully, "Your Majesty, you might as well ask Li Chunfeng to come forward."
This is also a feasible method. Xu Mochen nodded: "Then you should be more responsible and thoughtful."
As he spoke, he took out Li Chunfeng's letter.
"The fact that Li can send a direct descendant of the family to the capital shows that his heart is still with His Majesty," Tang Derun added, "Your Majesty is worried about King Qi."
"My father was kind in those days, and all the brothers who failed to seize the throne were sent to the capital and given fiefdoms," Xu Mochen frowned, "I really don't want King Qi to be involved."
Tang Derun did not dare to say more: "Your Majesty, there are some things that you just have to do your best."
Xu Mochen nodded, he took out the letter, scanned it with his consciousness, and extracted the information.
"Look," a rare flash of anger flashed across his face, "If this is really the case, has the Wuji Sect committed a serious crime?"
Tang Derun took the letter and read it, his face suddenly full of solemnity: "The Wuji Sect has a close relationship with the monster world forces in Qizhou. There are unknown transactions, and many people are missing in various places. Li Chunfeng suspects that the Wuji Sect is responsible." p>
Xu Mochen clenched his fists: "As for the world of monsters and beasts, I remember the information Aiqing gave me, which said that for cultivating bloodline, there are many people who eat flesh and blood."
Tang Derun himself is from the world of monsters. This topic is a bit embarrassing. He can only apologize: "Yes, some monsters need to devour flesh and blood to refine their energy and cultivate their bloodline.
However, there are regulations in Shifang World that you cannot eat human beings, otherwise it will be a serious crime and the immortal cultivator can be killed."
"What Li Chunfeng said in the letter implies that the Wuji Sect sold humans to the forces of the monster world," Xu Mochen felt angry in his heart, "This is directly treating humans as food!"
Tang Derun put the letter back: "Your Majesty, this matter is important and needs to be investigated clearly."
"Of course we have to investigate. The letter also said that the Wuji Sect gave various resources to the ministers in the DPRK and China in order to conceal the matter." Xu Mochen slapped his palm on the table, "Who among the DPRK and the DPRK is the most suspicious?"
Tang Derun's eyes flashed: "Your Majesty has already made up his mind."
"The Metropolitan Procuratorate," Xu Mochen sneered, "I just don't know how deeply they are involved.
