Chapter 782, Break the Bondage of Thoughts
"Yes~"
Wu Yuntu, Zhang Zhigang, Li Anyuan, Li Tong, Qian Hui and others also firmly remembered that since they accepted Liu Jin's invitation and became one of the founders of this Daming Medical College, they naturally had to be 100% attentive.
Liu Jin is also very good to them.
They are busy here in the medical school, and they are also leading the moon ringing, and several people are taking the highest moon ring, more than 100 silver dollars per month, such a high moon ring, it is definitely enough for them to have no worries about food and clothing, and they earn a lot more than they can earn by opening a medical hall to practice medicine.
So for the things that Liu Jin explained, this is naturally to be careful, and at the same time, he also feels a huge pressure.
Liu Jin is very demanding, and it is completely different from what they imagined.
Originally, they just thought that they would build a medical school and teach more students, but in the spirit of the benevolence of doctors, they are also willing to selflessly teach what they have learned and accumulated.
The world is full of peaches and plums, and for them, it is also very good.
But now it seems that Liu Jin has too many requirements, not only to teach medicine, but also to study new tools, summarize past experience, and develop and innovate on the original basis.
This requirement is much higher, and they also feel the pressure, this is just one of the three systems that Liu Jin talked about, and there are two more systems behind.
"This second system is the pharmaceutical system."
"There are two main kinds of medicines we use now, one is the boiled potion, and the other is the powder, the potion takes time to boil, and the taste is very bitter, can we find a way to change it."
"For example, find a way to concentrate the boiled potion and concentrate the useful medicine into a small ball, so that you don't have to be so bitter when taking the medicine."
"There are also children who don't like to take bitter medicine, can you try to add sugar to the medicine to reduce the bitter taste."
"In addition, with the expansion of our Daming around the world, there are a large number of new plants, animals, etc., and our medical school not only has to study traditional medicine, Danfang, etc., but also to study new plants, animals, medicines, and so on from all over the world."
"Maybe many of our diseases that are difficult to treat here in the Ming Dynasty can be easily treated with medicines from overseas, and my people wrote back from the Golden Continent to say that on the Golden Continent side, if the descendants of the local Yin merchants get a swing, they will use a kind of bark called cinchona tree, and use the bark to cook soup and drink, which can be cured in a few days."
Liu Jin looked at a few people and said slowly.
"What?"
"There is such a miracle medicine that can cure the slump in a few days?"
Hearing Liu Jin's words, Qian Hui immediately asked in surprise, because he had just received such a patient a few days ago, and in this era, this disease is very difficult to treat.
"Gong Liu, is there any such bark to bring back to my Daming?"
Li Tong also hurriedly asked.
"This pendulum can be divided into several kinds in total, such as the basic state of the species, such as the evil depression and less yang type, the summer heat and inner depression type, the summer dampness connotation, the epidemic invasion, and the positive and false evil love, which need to be treated with different methods and pills."
"But either way, it's very difficult to cure, and the treatment time is very long, and it's incredible that the bark of this cinchona tree can be cured in a few days."
Zhang Zhigang also nodded and said.
When the others heard this, they also nodded one after another, a famous doctor is a famous doctor, and he only knows how to play the pendulum clearly, and knows that it is divided into different types to prescribe the right medicine.
"Yes, yes, I have asked people to collect a lot of animals and plants from the Golden Continent and bring them back, including the bark of this cinchona tree, and I will have someone send it to you when I go back."
Liu Jin thought about it and nodded and said.
"That's great, I can't wait to try it now."
Qian Hui said with some excitement.
"This is just one example I have given, in all parts of the world, there are many kinds of plants, animals, medicinal stones, etc., and in the same way, there are countless countries and tribes, races, and so on, and each country, civilization, and race also has its own medical skills and medicines, etc."
"In this regard, we should also learn more from them, take their essence to remove their dross, remove the essence and save the essence, many diseases that we have not saved and treated in the Ming Dynasty may be cured very easily overseas."
"In the same way, there are a lot of animal and plant resources in the world, and for new things, we should study the medicinal value of these new things in the spirit of Shennong tasting herbs, and create more new drugs and new Dan formulas."
"In addition, we should also study more efficient, more economical, and cheaper pharmaceutical methods and tools to make medicine more popular."
"Many people in my Ming Dynasty could have been cured because of the high cost of seeing a doctor, or the treatment was far away, but they were delayed, resulting in no cure, if we can train more doctors and make cheaper medicines, the entire Ming people can benefit from this."
Liu Jin said with a smile.
With the closer and closer ties between Daming and overseas, more and more places and people in contact, new things, new treatments, etc. are worth learning and exploring.
Only by summarizing, inducting, classifying, researching, and innovating can we make new breakthroughs.
"Shennong tastes a hundred herbs!"
As soon as a few people heard this, they immediately felt even more pressured, this is not so simple to summarize Danfang.
There's still going on to study new things, new medicines, new arts, and so on, but when you think about it, it seems like this medical school is supposed to do these things.
"The third system is the surgical aspect."
"Many things are very difficult to treat with medicated stones, but they can be treated by surgery, and secondly, how to treat the injuries on the battlefield is also the field of surgery."
"In this regard, it may be necessary to break the shackles of thought, to study the human body, to dissect the human body, to study the differences between various organs and tissues in the human body, to study human blood, meridians, skin, organs, etc., only on the premise of knowing all this clearly, we can really improve our surgical skills."
Liu Jin began to talk about the third system, the field of surgery.
This is an area of great importance.
In traditional Chinese medicine, there is not no field of surgery, it also has, in ancient times Hua Tuo treated Cao Cao, he invented Ma Boiling Powder, in fact, it is the ancestor of anesthetic, he wanted to give Cao Cao a craniotomy for treatment, Cao Cao did not believe it, so he killed Hua Tuo.
It can be seen that there is also surgery in Chinese medicine, but most Chinese medicine doctors do not, and only a few Chinese medicine doctors understand this.
"Dissecting the human body?"
When a few people heard this, their faces suddenly changed slightly, this was a taboo in ancient times, but what Liu Jin said was not wrong, if he didn't know enough about himself, how could he go for surgery?
"Yes, I will build a special research site on a small island on this side of the South Seas, and then I will buy slaves for you to experiment and dissect."
"I know it's a very difficult and painful process, but it's also a process that has to be experienced, because if no one does it, then we will never have a deep understanding of the human body, and naturally it will be difficult to make a breakthrough in the field of surgery."
"Don't say anything else, but in terms of blood, in fact, human blood is also different, different blood will coagulate if it is mixed together, and the same blood can be transfused to each other."
"When you do surgery, there will definitely be a lot of bleeding, and if we can study the classification of human blood and give blood transfusions to patients, we can ensure that patients don't lose too much blood and die."
"On the battlefield, I have seen some wounded, their injuries are not serious, the really serious is bleeding, the bleeding does not stop, and if there is too much bleeding, he will naturally die, but if he can be transfused in time, he can be guaranteed to survive."
Liu Jin nodded solemnly and mentioned the issue of blood again.
"There are many types of blood?"
When Li Anyuan heard this, he hurriedly asked curiously.
As for blood, there is hardly any research in Chinese medicine, and it seems that the blood is all red and seems to be the same.
"Of course, on the European side, the European medical community is studying blood, and they have summed up an experience that blood can be transfused into each other, but only the blood of people of the same blood type can be transfused into each other."
"And here in Europe, there is a very popular method of treating diseases, called bloodletting, they think that people are sick because the blood in the body contains healing things, and the disease can be cured by letting go of some blood."
Liu Jin nodded and said.
"Can bloodletting still cure diseases?"
"There is such a ridiculous treatment."
When Wu Yuntu heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded, and couldn't help but say with some anger: "This is simply joking with life." ”
"It's ridiculous, indeed, but it's very prevalent here in Europe, and here in the Golden Continent, when our people write back, I'm a little incredulous."
"However, the Europeans are better at blood research than us, they have a general understanding of the types of blood, and they also know how to transfuse blood, how to safely bleed, stop bleeding and so on."
"Although stupid, there are still some things worth learning, and we can also learn some things that are useful to us."
Liu Jin smiled and nodded.
The bloodletting therapy in Europe lasted for a very long time, and many famous figures in history died under this bloodletting therapy, such as the Bald Eagle's founding father, Washington, who died under the bloodletting, and it was in 1799, which has to make people sigh for a long time.
At that time, he was just sweating from patrolling his manor and did not change into dry clothes in time, so he got a cold and a minor illness with inflamed tonsils.
Even if you don't take medicine, don't take injections, and drink more hot water, you can get better slowly, but you let your doctor treat it, and it was not enough to let the blood go once, so I invited two more doctors to come over, and I put the blood twice, and after losing 2.5 liters of blood, I went to heaven to see his God.
It's unbelievable to say, but at the time, it was like this, and the bloodletting therapy lasted for hundreds of years, even nearly thousands of years, and many people were killed by bloodletting and death.
