My father is Jiajing

Chapter 211 The Correct Way to Use the Japanese Pirates

"Meet the prince!"

Li Shizhen bowed to Zhu Zaigui excitedly.

Zhu Zaigui looked at Li Shizhen and laughed, "No need to be polite, please stand up quickly."

After Li Shizhen and his disciples stood up, Zhu Zaigui said, "Don't gather here. Go and do what you need to do. I am just here to watch the fun."

Zhu Zaigui sent everyone away, and they bowed to him and said, "Yes."

Then they reluctantly dispersed and returned to their respective jobs.

At this time, Zhu Zaigui looked at Li Shizhen beside him and said expectantly, "Come on, take me to see it!"

Zhu Zaigui was anxious to see Li Shizhen's research results.

Li Shizhen looked at the excited Zhu Zaigui and quickly stopped him, "Your Highness needs to change clothes. Safety comes first."

After hearing this, Zhu Zaigui laughed again.

Today's Li Shizhen is really on the right track, with a bit of the rigor of modern medicine.

Zhu Zaigui said: "Okay, change clothes first."

Then, under the guidance of Li Shizhen, Zhu Zaigui changed into a white coat that had been disinfected with boiling water, put on a pair of glass goggles, and followed Li Shizhen into the laboratory.

This was the first time Zhu Zaigui had entered this laboratory. Looking at the glass curtain wall inside, he felt as if he was traveling through time.

However, Zhu Zaigui also knew that the quality of the glass curtain wall here was very average, and he only chose it for the sake of greater light transmittance and hygiene.

Otherwise, such poor quality glass products would be impossible to be used as windows or curtain walls.

Because the manufacturing level of these glasses is still too poor, it is impossible to achieve extremely high transparency tempered glass. It is just a relatively thick piece of ordinary glass.

But even so, this is already amazing!

After all, glass products are still a relatively special product for the Ming Dynasty today.

If such a special thing were made according to the inherent aesthetic of the ancients, it would most likely not be possible to make white transparent glass, but would instead be made into fancy colored glass of various colors.

Therefore, the fact that we can now make such large pieces of white transparent glass is also thanks to Zhu Zaigui’s special requirements.

Otherwise, God knows how many years these glass craftsmen and literati who appreciate glass objects will have to play with them before they remember that glass is actually white and transparent.

After all, even in ancient Europe, which produced glass in large quantities, the focus was on colored glass and printed glass. It took many years before people thought of producing white and transparent glass.

Therefore, Zhu Zaigui had a hard time describing the ancients' natural preference for flashy aesthetics.

Moreover, this messy aesthetic actually led to a sense of superiority, so much so that later a certain Mr. Zhang specifically ordered craftsmen to burn a "porcelain mother" made up of seventeen colors.

This aesthetic is so advanced that it has no peers.

Therefore, in order to prevent the aesthetic taste of glass from going astray in his own hands, Zhu Zaigui would never allow his glass workshop to produce any fancy glass products.

Of course, the amount of money is another matter!

After all, Zhu Zaigui had no grudge against silver. If someone really had a keen eye for talent and wanted to make a colorful and fancy vase or something like that, Zhu Zaigui would still ask someone to help make it.

So, as I said, don’t be absolute in everything, it’s easy to get slapped in the face.

Zhu Zaiqi watched Li Shizhen carefully fiddling with a glass petri dish in the laboratory, and then watched him dip a cotton swab into a little of the super "magic medicine" he had worked so hard to develop, and put a little bit of it into the dish...

Then he put the petri dish under a microscope. When this scene appeared in front of Zhu Zaigui, Zhu Zaigui's spirit became tense.

This is the moment to witness a miracle!

After Li Shizhen finished all this, he turned to Zhu Zaigui and said expectantly: "Please take a look, Your Majesty."

Zhu Zaigui suppressed his excitement and walked to Li Shizhen in two steps. Then he held his breath and put his eyes on the eyepiece of the microscope, looking through the eyepiece at the culture dish on the microscope stage...

The subtle images in the culture dish that were previously invisible to the naked eye suddenly appeared before my eyes.

In the dyed penicillin solution, within the range where it spreads little by little, it is obvious that some poor, unknown, strangely shaped small microorganisms are dying quickly.

This picture is simply shocking!
Zhu Zaigui looked down at it in ecstasy, not daring to blink for even a moment.

He was not so serious even when he used a microscope to observe leaf cells and blood cells in his first biology experiment class.

From this we can see how excited Zhu Zaigui is now!
“It’s really shocking!”

After a long time, Zhu Zaigui gave a sincere compliment.

After hearing Zhu Zaigui's praise, Li Shizhen also sighed: "If it weren't for the prince's inspiration, I would never have thought that medical skills could be presented in this way."

"The cold virus in this petri dish is completely defenseless in front of this magic medicine. It was directly killed."

"If this magical medicine can be mass-produced, I wonder how many people in the world will benefit from it!"

"It's a pity that after all my efforts and countless energy in research, I have only been able to produce a little bit of the magical medicine that Your Majesty mentioned."

Listening to Li Shizhen's sigh, Zhu Zaigui laughed again, "This is already amazing. I thought it would take you ten or twenty years to succeed, but I didn't expect that you have accomplished it in less than a year. You are truly a miracle doctor!"

Li Shizhen quickly replied: "I am ashamed to be called a miracle doctor. This was all the prince's suggestion. I just followed the prince's idea and turned it into reality. So if there is any credit, it should go to the prince."

Zhu Zaiqi smiled and waved his hands, saying: "It is your credit. Without your efforts, this king would have been nothing but an empty dream."

Zhu Zaigui then said seriously: "Although this medicine is miraculous, it also has a fatal flaw. Not everyone can try it."

"Therefore, in future clinical trials, we must first use a silver needle to dip a small dose of the drug solution into the skin and observe for a period of time to see if there are any adverse reactions. If there are any, stop the drug immediately. If not, we can test the effect of the drug dosage on the condition little by little."

"This is a matter of life and death, so we must not be careless in the slightest!"

Zhu Zaigui sighed again, "When there is a chance in the future, I will ask Your Majesty to send the captured Japanese pirates here. Then you can boldly test various new drugs and examine and study the human organs and blood vessels and nerves in detail."

"The human body diagrams in ancient medical books are still too crude and not conducive to medical research. When you draw pictures of human organs and blood vessels in the future, you must draw them in great detail. If you really can't draw them, then find a Western painter and learn their painting techniques."

"The ancients said: 'Stones from other mountains can be used to polish jade.' I have helped you to understand that there is a painting technique called oil painting and sketching in the West. The main focus is on authenticity. Compared with the impressionistic painting style we inherited, theirs is more realistic."

“So when learning their techniques, you must not be condescending and disdainful. You must be serious when you need to be serious. You must extract the essence and discard the dross, and learn well.”

Zhu Zaigui continued to talk so much to Li Shizhen.

Li Shizhen was also listening very seriously and attentively, and he kept everything Zhu Zaigui said firmly in his mind.

"I will remember it."
