Chapter 3050 Made
Koko said, "Yes." Although it was slightly different from the design drawing in its system, the principle was the same. It had calculated that it was feasible if the other party could make pipes and barrels.
Seeing that the host was very happy, Koko said, "Actually, the distiller has many uses. It can purify many things. Distilled water is actually the purification of water."
Zhou Man casually asked in his mind, "For example?"
"For example," Koko said, "the most famous thing in the history of distillation is probably the purification of wine."
Even now, wine still holds a special place in society.
Zhou Man didn't like drinking, so he just listened to it and didn't care about it.
Bai Shan, however, drew inferences from his previous experience and asked, "If water can be purified, can vinegar be purified? To make the vinegar more sour."
He likes sweet and sour things.
Zhou Man: "If the vinegar...isn't sour enough, leave it in for a little longer? But the wine should be able to be purified."
Bai Shan: "...I don't like drinking."
He paused. He had grown up, his mind had expanded considerably, and he began to ponder: "Although we don't like drinking, there are many people in this world who do."
For example, the emperor, for example, the prince.
Bai Shan touched his chin and said, "During the expedition to the east last year, I heard the generals fighting and joking over a pot of wine. Among them, the stronger the wine, the more popular it was."
Zhou Man said objectively: "Strong liquor can keep the body warm. The colder the place, the better it should be."
Bai Shan: "This is all money..."
His eyes sparkled. "Write it down first. We can try it out when we're short of money. We don't need it, so we can leave it to our descendants."
As for now, he doesn't have the energy for it, and grain has many uses and is very important, so it is not suitable to use it to make wine for the time being.
Zhou Man nodded in agreement.
Bai Shan collected the manuscript, took her hand and said, "Let's go have lunch first."
"Where should we eat?"
"Let's go to Yin Huo's house," Bai Shan said, "The food there is better."
Princess Mingda has been very picky about food recently and has a somewhat unique taste, so neither Bai Shan nor Zhou Man likes to go to her house for dinner. Of course, they also don't go to Yin Huo's house next door for dinner.
However, the food at Yin Huo's house was as good as ever. Occasionally, when they didn't want to eat the food cooked by Sister He, they would go to Yin Huo's house to eat.
The guards had already informed them in advance, so the Yin family was already prepared, and Yin Huo was already sitting at the dinner table waiting.
After waiting for a long time, he finally saw them coming and sighed deeply, "Half an hour ago, you sent someone to tell me that the kitchen had prepared the food and it was here. I waited for a long time and was very curious about what you were doing."
Bai Shan briefly explained the steamed water. He turned to Zhou Man and said, "We need to give it a name. What should we call it? Two pots stacked together, double pot? Or just steamed pot?"
Zhou Man chose the second one, thinking it was more specific.
Yin Huo wasn't interested in the fact that it could be used to purify wine, but was instead interested in the medicine Zhou Man was making. "What kind of medicine is so complicated, using both oil and steamed water?"
Zhou Man said: "It's a medicine called penicillin, which can treat fire poison."
Yin Huo became a doctor after suffering from illness for a long time. He knew that fire poison can be easy to treat or difficult to treat, and the most difficult of them should be the wounds on the battlefield.
He couldn't help but be curious, "Why haven't I heard you mention this medicine before?"
Zhou Man said: "I haven't heard of it before."
She said confidently, "There's a patient with tuberculosis in the hospital. I looked up medical texts and learned there's a medicine that can be extracted from soil fungi, but it's too difficult. I tried several times but couldn't do it. Then I heard there's another medicine that's also extracted from mold, but it doesn't treat tuberculosis, but diseases like fire poison."
"But this medicine is very dangerous. Some people don't like it, and those who do can't use it too much. That's why I didn't think of developing it," Zhou Man said. "Wen Tiandong has several patients in Qingzhou City. They're all craftsmen. While working, they accidentally used their hands to catch iron tools and got punctured. Two of them healed quickly, but two had difficulty healing. Perhaps it was because of the recent hot weather and the wind shock."
Zhou Man sighed and said, "I went to Qingzhou City to check on them a couple of days ago. One of them has started to get better with the medicine, but the other one hasn't shown much improvement and can only drag on with his condition in a state of neither getting better nor worse. This medicine can cure him, if he can use it."
Bai Shan asked, "What if it doesn't work?"
"Then we can only do our best and leave the rest to fate."
Yin Huo was stunned. "It's just a small wound."
"Yes, but convulsions are different. The wind poison enters the body and can last from one or two days to two months. If it's not treated, it can lead to death."
It is not like other diseases that can be delayed even if they cannot be cured, such as tuberculosis. The patient may live for several years or even decades.
It was also because of this that Wen Tiandong took this medicine very seriously. He carefully skimmed out all the grease in the jar, leaving only the water at the bottom.
He took a look and felt that it was clean enough, then he stood up with his slightly stiff neck.
Xiao Kou came up and said, "Master Wen, Master Bai is here to take Master Zhou out for lunch. Your lunch is ready. Where would you like to eat it?"
Wen Tiandong wanted to keep an eye on the medicine, so he said, "Bring it here. I'll eat it at the door."
After dinner he waited for his husband to come back.
Bai Shan and Yin Huo were really curious about her medicine because, judging by its efficacy, it seemed to be very effective for convulsions caused by injuries caused by iron objects.
If such medicine were used on the battlefield...
Especially since Bai Shan had been to the battlefield, and Yin Huo had also witnessed it, and his father was a general, he cared even more about this.
Zhou Man was very strict. "That's the theory, but since I'm unfamiliar with this drug, it can't be used on humans immediately. It has to be tested on a small scale, just like vaccination. Only after it's confirmed to be safe enough can it be released to pharmacies and sent to the battlefield."
Bai Shan and Yin Huo nodded perfunctorily, "Let's see what the finished medicine looks like first."
So they came over to watch.
At this stage, it was time to use the charcoal. Zhou Man asked Xibing to bring up the items she had prepared and place them on the table. She explained each one to Wen Tiandong and asked him to write down the steps and the items he needed to prepare. She pointed them out to him one by one, "This is the steaming water, which will be used to wash the charcoal later. This is vinegar, which becomes acid water when added to water. This is the water made from boiling seaweed, which is alkaline, the opposite of acid."
Wen Tiandong wrote them down one by one, then placed the charcoal into the small jar, letting it absorb all the juice inside. Then he carefully poured it out, placed gauze on a large bowl, poured the charcoal on it, and placed the gauze on the funnel. There was also a piece of gauze at the bottom of the funnel to filter it again. Then Wen Tiandong carefully washed the charcoal with steaming water...
Then I used acid water, and finally seaweed water...
He glanced at Zhou Man, and after getting her approval, he divided the liquid into portions, and then he took them to the front to find the patient he brought back from Qingzhou last night.
See you at 11pm
