Chapter 763: Medicated Bath
The more he learned about the various black technologies of this era, the more shocked and amazed Yuan Shu became, and he couldn't help but think of how brilliant the era of a hundred schools of thought and saints were in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
Although he has thousands of years of knowledge beyond this era, Yuan Shu admires Hua Tuo, Zhang Zhongjing and many medical ancestors from the bottom of his heart.
Who would have thought that in this day and age, someone would be able to do a craniotomy? Who would have thought that the sight, smell, and inquiry of traditional Chinese medicine are so magical, and a person's physical condition can be judged by just a glance.
Today's Dachu, compared with the steady progress in scientific and technological research, the progress in medical treatment can be described as a rapid progress. The fault rate of the inheritance of ancient Chinese medicine is simply ridiculously high, not to mention anything else, even Hua Tuo's medical books have been burned. The lack of attention to medicine, the difficulty of cultivating traditional Chinese medicine, the difficulty of medical research, and the self-cherishing of doctors themselves are all important factors that cause the loss of medical inheritance. Taken together, the situation of Chinese medicine is much more difficult than that of craftsmen.
Fortunately, it has not yet gone through the cleansing of the five chaotic Hua, the family is in charge, and there are still a few points of medical inheritance left over from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and fortunately, there are still two great gods in this era, Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing.
The profundity of medicine in this era is much stronger than that of Chinese medicine in later generations, but it is still a little mixed and has not been systematically integrated. With the support of Yuan Shu, the level of medicine swelled rapidly like blowing up a balloon. On the basis of some concepts of Western medicine put forward by Yuan Shu in later generations, Hua Tuo's surgical level has improved rapidly, and surgeries like Zhou Tai's arm replacement are easy.
In the largest room of the medical school, there are nearly a thousand huge wooden barrels, which are filled with different colors and shades of liquid. And inside each barrel, a naked strong man sits cross-legged.
Standing on the high platform, Yuan Shu looked at this scene of spicy eyes, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly, he forcibly held back a little discomfort in his heart, and asked Hua Tuo on the side: "Has it progressed to this last link?" ”
Hua Tuo looked at the spectacular scene in front of him, and sighed in his heart. Once upon a time, he traveled the world alone to treat the people, and medical research was only incidental, and there was not much time and opportunity for in-depth research.
Like now, there are thousands of disciples and nearly 100 descendants, and there is no need to do everything yourself. Only a small part of the time each day needs to be spent treating those few people, and the rest of the time can be devoted to various research, and there are so many resources at their disposal. Just put forward the request that someone could cooperate with the experiment, and Yuan Shu directly transferred nearly 10,000 soldiers to be dispatched.
"As far as the ancient medicinal bath formulas we currently have are concerned, there are only a few dozen complete formulas available that have been restored by me, and I have also tried to optimize these formulas, and the nearly 1,000 wooden barrels in front of me are the results." Hua Tuo said.
"Is there a daily count of these soldiers?" Yuan Shu asked.
"Hmm. According to the method provided by His Majesty, we will count and analyze all aspects of these soldiers every day. Moreover, in order to prevent individual differences, each medicinal bath formula will be tested by several people, and the data will be as stable as possible. ”
"What's going on now?"
Hua Tuo casually took out a notebook from his sleeve and handed it to Yuan Shu: "For now, we roughly classify the physical condition of the soldiers into four aspects, strength, speed, internal qi, and recovery, as well as agility and health conditions, which have little to do with combat. Each of these medicated bath recipes has a different emphasis, so we have taken into account the four main aspects and initially selected twelve formulas. ”
Yuan Shu took the notebook and scanned it casually, saw the medicinal bath formula named Wu Gengjia at the top of the first page, and asked casually: "Is this formula the best choice at present?" ”
Hua Tuo nodded: "In terms of these four main aspects, this formula has the best comprehensive effect, and the cost is not high." This is what I improved on the basis of Wei Wushu's medicinal bath formula back then, the cost is seventy percent more, and the effect is nearly thirty percent higher. ”
After dealing with Yuan Shu for a long time, Hua Tuo also understood what kind of character Yuan Shu was. I don't care about money at all, and it's not enough to describe it as rich and stupid. Yuan Shu, a killing weapon that can effectively improve the combat power of soldiers, will definitely not be stingy with money, not to mention that the cost has increased by seventy percent, even if it has increased several times, Yuan Shu probably doesn't care, so he directly took the best effect.
Now this formula Hua Tuo estimates that the person who configured the Wei Wushu medicinal bath formula has also made it out nine times out of ten, but because it is too expensive and not cost-effective, it is estimated that he will give it up, after all, this is not for one or two people, it is enough for hundreds of thousands of Wei Wushu! But Da Chu is so rich now, Yuan Shu naturally doesn't care about this money.
"Well, that's good." Yuan Shu looked at the data on the notebook and nodded, "Let's use this prescription for the time being." I'll send someone to inform Zibu later, and he'll cooperate with you. Within a month, you must build a factory for the production of this medicinal bath and popularize it throughout the army as soon as possible. Also, the factory is built secretly, and the confidentiality work must be done well, and the formula must not be allowed to circulate. ”
"I understand." Hua Tuo said solemnly. This medicated bath recipe was made purely for the purpose of cultivating elite soldiers and improving their combat effectiveness, and was not suitable for physical fitness, and therefore not for popularization in the world.
Yuan Shu nodded: "In addition, don't put down the research on other medicinal bath formulas that have not yet been perfected and restored, and you must not stop improving the formulas." Also, in addition to this medicinal bath formula specially used for soldiers, other aspects can also be researched, such as suitable for strengthening the body, relieving fatigue, tonifying the kidneys... Ahem, it's like this, you can study it by the way. Of course, it is still necessary to focus on the soldiers. ”
Speaking of the back, Yuan Shu almost ran astray, and his old face couldn't help but turn red.
"I know." An inexplicable smile appeared at the corner of Hua Tuo's mouth.
"The health effect of the five poultry operas created by your old man is good, and I am ready to ask people to implement it throughout the country. However, in terms of the army's soldiers, you also have to make a set of punches for me to strengthen the muscles and bones of the soldiers, and it is best to use them in conjunction with the medicinal bath. Yuan Shu first praised it, and then made a request.
Hua Tuo's face was full of excitement when he heard this, and he responded repeatedly. Teaching the Five Birds Opera to the world can be regarded as one of his lifelong wishes, which is not only beneficial to the health of the people, but also can get a good name, and anyone will be extremely happy.
In order to improve the combat effectiveness of the army, Yuan Shu can be regarded as racking his brains. In terms of weapons and equipment, it depends on the Mo family and the public losers, while the soldiers have to start with the soldiers and doctors.
Compared with previous dynasties, the Chu State under the control of Yuan Shu has an absolute advantage, that is, there is more money and more food, and it can be squandered at will. Although Yuan Shu only controlled the surface of some economic knowledge, it was enough to turn the world around in this era. When it comes to affluence, the rule of Wenjing and the rule of Zhenguan are not at all in front of today's Great Chu.
Yuan Shu is not bad for money at all now, no matter what the method, as long as it can improve the combat power of the army, Yuan Shu is willing to try, anyway, the money is capricious, just smash it.
