Chapter 2297 Farewell
Manbao took the problematic stone from the frame of the excavation robot and put it in the pile of stones on the side. Then, under Koko's guidance, he picked up the broken small stones.
There are many rocks in this tiankeng, and among them there is a big rock that is severely broken. Even though it has been smashed into a big hole, there are still rocks underneath.
It should be that a falling meteorite broke through the sand layer and encountered it, and the two stones collided and broke into pieces.
Except for a few rocks that were ejected and shot into the sand, the rest of the meteorite pieces floated to the surface and were very broken.
Bai Shan put the stones he picked up on the pile of stones. He had no one to guide him, but after looking at them many times, he could tell which were meteorites and which were ordinary stones.
Manbao mostly found meteorites sunk into the soil, and Bai Shan was powerless to find them, after all, his eyes could not see into the ground.
Manbao brought all the meteorite pieces he had found to the classroom. Teacher Mo was already waiting. He took the items and packed them up, isolating them from radiation. After that, he emailed Manbao and asked, "Is everything here?"
Manbao asked Keke to reply with a "yes".
Teacher Mo asked her, "Is the excavator robot still useful?"
Manbao replied: "It's too old. It broke when I was digging a meteorite."
Teacher Mo said, "It's broken, so just treat it as scrap metal. It was discarded anyway."
After Mr. Mo replied to this email, he decided the ownership of the excavation robot that was temporarily borrowed at the time. The Alliance and Encyclopedia that had given him the permission had long forgotten about this matter.
In other words, there are more important things for them to pay attention to and worry about now, and these trivial matters are no longer enough to attract their attention.
How to distribute the meteorite given by Zhou Man? The news of this matter leaked out from somewhere, and now several planets are fighting for it.
They all wanted to obtain the meteorite and study it, so they could more quickly uncover the secrets of genetic mutation, stabilize the genes, benefit all intelligent races, and, by the way, achieve fame and success, leaving a lasting legacy...
Even Teacher Mo said to Manbao, "I'll be very busy recently. If you have anything to ask me, send me an email. If you don't understand something in class, send me an email as well. I'll answer it for you when I see it."
He continued, "I recorded a lot of courses a while ago. Listen to them first, and then there will be homework. When you finish, email them to me. The recommended reading list for next year has been sent to your email. After you finish reading this year's recommended books, buy the next year's books and read them. If you don't understand something, please write it down and email it to me. Of course, I suggest you try to find a way to solve it yourself first. If you really can't find an answer or are not sure, then ask me."
Manbao knew that from today on, she would become a semi-free-range student.
For some reason, she was not disappointed, but rather felt a little excited and happy.
She whispered to Bai Shan, "When we get back to Xizhou City, let's go out with Mr.
Bai Shan raised an eyebrow and asked, "What about the cowpox issue?"
Manbao said, "The news should reach Xizhou City. If it doesn't, that's fine. We can just say we met someone outside and learned the general method of vaccination. We can then try it ourselves and see if it's true or not."
Bai Shan asked, "Where to try it?"
"What do you propose?"
"I suggest we try it in Xizhou," he said. "Since we're here for the cowpox treatment, we naturally need to get definite information before we return."
Manbao pondered, "Other things are easy. I have smallpox scabs on my hands. I can buy two cows to test them. But what about people?"
Manbao was a little worried, "After all, this is not the capital, and our relationship with General Guo is not good." In the capital, there are the emperor and the prince above her, and the Imperial Medical Bureau below her. As long as her suggestions are reasonable, they will always help her.
Bai Shan thought for a moment and said, "Let's talk to General Guo first. If it works out, that would be great. If not, we'll submit a petition to the capital. This will give us time to study this method in more detail."
Manbao was still a little distressed, "Who should I hire?"
Bai Shan smiled and said, "Of course they are prisoners. Xizhou was originally the kingdom of Gaochang. After it was captured, many prisoners were imprisoned in the city. There are also prisoners exiled here from other places. In any case, there are no fewer than those in the capital."
There were indeed quite a few prisoners in Xizhou, but except for a small number who were imprisoned or directly taken to the vegetable market to be beheaded, the rest were all taken to the army by General Guo to serve as soldiers.
They were still criminals and could only rely on military merit to reduce their sentences. If they were lucky and willing to fight, their sentences would be reduced after a few years of fighting. Then General Guo would enlist them in the military and they would continue to be soldiers.
It's just that if you make more contributions, you can be rewarded according to your merits.
However, General Guo was stingy and treated the soldiers he recruited and those conscripted by the court harshly, and he treated these soldiers who were said to be criminals even more harshly.
But no matter how harsh it is, fighting in a war is better than being a medicine man, especially a medicine man for smallpox.
Daji hit them, "Master, those prisoners may not be happy. The prisoners in the capital have no other options, so they choose to take a risk, but the criminals here have other options."
Bai Shan said: "At worst, we can just give money. A big reward will surely attract brave men. I don't believe no one will come."
Anyway, they have money, so what are they afraid of?
Manbao, however, felt bad about the money and said, "Let's try to recruit among the prisoners first."
Bai Shan glanced at her, smiled and nodded.
The meteorites in the three tiankengs were dealt with and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
After returning to Danshi Village, Manbao called the six villagers over, drew their blood for the last time, and asked Teacher Mo to help with the testing.
The results were good. Their rejection was effective and the medicine also repaired some of the damage to their bodies.
Manbao simply wrote them a few prescriptions, "I left in a hurry this time and didn't bring any herbs with me. Here are the prescriptions. You can take them and boil them to make medicine. It will be easier to have children after recuperating."
He added, "It's okay if it's inconvenient for you to go out. When we return to Xizhou, we'll ask someone to send you some things. The herbs will also be prepared. I'll write your names on them, and you can use them to make the medicine."
The village chief and villagers were very grateful.
The village chief, in particular, reluctantly escorted the people ten miles, then another ten miles. When he was about to insist on escorting them a third ten miles, Manbao finally couldn't help but stop him, "After accompanying you for a thousand miles, we must still say goodbye. Or do you want to go to Xizhou with us, village chief?"
The village chief was still a little timid about outsiders, so he shrank his neck and declined.
However, when Zhou Man and the others said goodbye, he still gritted his teeth and asked the difficult question, "Sir, can they really have children at their age?"
Manbao: ...You can just ask her this question in the village, why run twenty miles to ask?
Man Bao said: "Even healthy people can't guarantee fertility, but their fertility is not bad. If they are a normal couple, they should be able to have a baby."
The village chief breathed a sigh of relief, solemnly saluted Zhou Man and others, and then watched them leave.
