Chapter Seventy-Seven: Flickering

"Sun, tell me the truth, if what you gave me is really dew?" Just as the ambiguous atmosphere was gradually escalating, Mary suddenly looked directly into Sun Wei's eyes and asked.

Sun Wei didn't expect Mary to be so direct, but fortunately, he had already made up his mind before, except for Wang Qian, Xie Xiaoshu, and Xie Yunpeng, anyone who came to ask would have an answer, so he didn't want to think about it, so he said perfunctorily: "This medicine ......"

"I have to listen to the truth, don't lie to me, or I will never forgive you again!" Mary suddenly interrupted Sun Wei's explanation and said solemnly.

Sun Wei may not be very accustomed to telling lies in front of such familiar people, and when he spoke, his head lowered slightly to avoid making eye contact with Mary, but now that he heard Mary ask for this, he raised his gaze again in surprise, just in front of Mary's gaze.

In his previous life, when Sun Wei was reading books, he often saw people describe their eyes as the window of the soul, and he didn't care about it when he read books before, but now he finally understood the meaning of this sentence when he saw Mary staring at him.

In Mary's bright eyes, Sun Wei saw sincerity, longing, and concern, and this complex and deep look hit his heart and made him swallow the original perfunctory words into his stomach.

"It's not dew, it's sulfonamides." Sun Wei withdrew his eyes from looking directly at Mary and said calmly.

Hearing Sun Wei's explanation, the hanging heart in Mary's heart also let go, and at this time she was full of joy, a joy of being trusted by the hero in her heart, and then she asked, "Sun, is this a new medicine you invented?" ”

"Yes, sulfonamides are indeed a new drug that has just been experimentally synthesized for your condition, and you can now be said to be the first patient in the world to actually use sulfonamides."

In fact, Sun Wei regretted it after saying the true ingredients of the medicine, in all fairness, he had not been in contact with Mary for a long time, and he didn't know much about nature, just knowing that this was a girl who was poisoned by medieval heroic novels, and he had an inexplicable admiration for himself, the person who saved her in danger, but no one knew how much weight this worship had in front of huge profits, so in order to envelop Mary and not divulge the true ingredients of the medicine, he took the initiative to hook up with this girl in his words for the first time.

Sun Wei, who has experienced a hundred battles, has an accurate grasp of the girl's mind, and Mary was intoxicated when she heard Sun Wei say that sulfonamide was specially experimented with and synthesized for her condition, but fortunately, she still knew the real purpose of her inquiry about Sun Wei, and then continued to ask: "In addition to treating pneumonia, can this sulfonamide also treat other diseases?" ”

"I have just synthesized it today, and I have not yet undergone systematic clinical experiments, and I don't know much about the specific efficacy of sulfonamides, but the chemical name of sulfonamide is p-aminobenzene sulfonamide, and its real medicinal effect is on its functional group, and it should also be able to treat diseases caused by bacteria such as epidemic meningitis, sepsis, puerperal fever, gonorrhea, syphila, wound infection, etc. Sun Wei said half-truthfully.

"Although I didn't understand the chemical name and functional group you said, I should be able to tell from the diseases it can treat that it is very powerful." Mary was ignorant by Sun Wei's very professional terms, but she understood one thing, this thing called sulfonamide is very, very powerful.

"Modern pharmacology is no longer the simple extraction of active ingredients from plants, but further studies the pharmacological effects of synthetic chemicals, the most valuable of which is the functional groups of new chemicals, which is also my current research direction." Sun Wei originally had no intention of provoking Mary, after all, she was the daughter of the British Consul General in Shanghai, and he was a married man, but there were many accidents, and now Mary unexpectedly knew all the secrets of sulfonamides, so in the consideration of secrecy, he wanted to completely capture the heart of this casual girl, and the most concise way was naturally to cultivate his own knowledge.

What Sun Wei didn't know was that in fact, when he told the truth about the medicine, he had completely captured Mary's heart, and then Mary said to Sun Wei: "Sun, I want to tell you something, but you have to promise me first, don't be angry after listening to it." ”

"Are you saying that your father is already suspecting that what I am giving you is not dew, but a real cure for pneumonia?" Sun Wei saw Mary's tangled expression, and his heart was somewhat clear, so he took the lead in asking.

"It's not my father, it's my mother. My mother asked me to secretly keep some of the medicine while I was taking it, and then asked her to take it to Dr. Williams, who had treated me before, and Dr. Williams, who was a famous British physiologist and medical scientist, had a lot of research on medicines. Mary explained.

"So soon, isn't your mother afraid that I will find out about this and stop providing you with medicine in a fit of rage?" Although Sun Wei had long expected that the Wilson couple might peep into their medicines, he did not expect that the consul's wife would start planning to coerce and snatch the prescription when she had just given Mary the first medicine.

My mother said...... My mother said you like me, even if you know what she is doing in private, you won't really get angry and stop giving me medicine. Mary hesitated for a moment, and said a little shyly.

"Your mother knows me very well, and knows that I am reluctant to really let you die, but this is the first time I have seen such a strange person as your mother." Sun Wei said very calmly.

"Aren't you angry?" Mary didn't wait for Sun Wei's furiousness, and asked a little puzzled.

"I'm really angry, but whoever made her your mother, even if I'm really angry, I can only hold it in my heart." Sun Wei said with a smile.

"I'm sick of it, I'm getting down to business with you." Mary said shyly.

"I'm talking about business, too, isn't it the right thing to like you?" Sun Wei continued to attack.

"You...... If you are so unserious, I will ignore you. Mary was completely defeated by Sun Wei's directness, her face was full of spring, and she was about to drip water.

"Okay, okay, I won't talk about it, I'll just think about it in my heart in the future." Sun Wei said with a smile.

"You still say, I really ignore you!" Mary said, closing her big hairy eyes in a coquettish look, and then turned her face to a place that Sun Wei couldn't see.

"Okay, okay, I really won't talk about it this time, you adults have a lot, so don't be angry." Sun Wei pretended to apologize.

"You're pretty much it!" Seeing that Sun Wei really stopped teasing herself, Mary turned her head with great satisfaction, and then continued the topic just now and asked, "Sun, what did you think about what I said just now, how to deal with my mother?" ”

"Originally, this medicine was synthesized specifically for you, even if it was given directly to your mother, it would be nothing, but this kind of medicine is different from the Cuiyunxuan magic medicine I sold before, and the medicinal effect it has is enough to make a country crazy, once this medicine leaks out, it will inevitably attract various forces who want to control the patent of this drug by controlling me. I am a Qing countryman, and our court is corrupt from top to bottom, and they will not provide me with any shelter, on the contrary, it is very likely that I will become one of the forces that want to control me, so until I have enough strength to protect myself, this medicine must not leak anything. Sun Wei took advantage of Mary's concern for him, and began to exaggerate a little when he spoke.

"What can I do, my mother won't just stop like this?" Mary said anxiously.

"Your mother is actually very easy to solve, and the key lies with you." Sun Wei was unhurried.

"Me? What can I do? Mary wondered.

"Sulfonamides themselves do not have any bactericidal effect, its only role is to inhibit the growth of bacteria, what really plays a bactericidal role is actually the body's own immunity, and if you want sulfonamides to have an inhibitory effect on bacteria, you must ensure that it is in the content of the solution, and this inhibition will not be obvious if the content is less, so even if your mother really brings sulfonamides to Dr. Williams for experiments, it is impossible to really get the results they want. But the only variable in this matter is your attitude, you are one of the few people who know the true effect of sulfonamide, if you tell your mother everything, then sulfonamide will not have a trace of privacy at all, if you don't tell your mother, they will not even be able to verify the effect of pneumonia with the little medicine solution they secretly kept. Sun Wei explained.

"Sun, are you suspicious of me?" Mary was relieved to hear Sun Wei's explanation, and then she thought of Sun Wei's assumptions about herself in his words, so she asked.

"It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that the other party is your mother after all, and I'm just a man who admires you, and I'm also a Chinese man who is rejected by your Western world." Sun Wei said a little sadly.

"I don't care what others think, but I have never discriminated against the Chinese, let alone rejected you. I admit that I love my parents, but that doesn't mean I can be at their mercy. I'm not a kid anymore, so I naturally know what's right and what's wrong. Mary was afraid that Sun Wei would misunderstand, so she hurriedly excused herself.

"So you mean, you're not going to tell your parents what we're talking about today?" Sun Wei pretended to be overjoyed and asked.

"Don't worry, I promise that I won't tell my parents what you said to me today, and I won't help them secretly keep the medicine solution." Mary was pretended by Sun Wei to give birth to a sense of motherhood, so she solemnly assured Sun Wei.

"You don't need to do it all with your parents, you can still do the stuff of secretly leaving the medicine, as long as you don't keep too much, they won't research anything, and your cooperation can also dispel their suspicions." After Sun Wei got Mary, he began to guide the Wilsons.

I'll write here for now, and I'll change it later.

What Sun Wei didn't expect was that before the army had all crossed the river, the new army camp facing Hanyang on the other side of the river was filled with gunfire. Thinking that the uprising had leaked, Sun Wei hurriedly ordered the army to quickly cross the river in order to meet the army that failed in the uprising. But what Sun Wei didn't expect was that when the army had just crossed the river and was ready to attack, the liaison sent by Sun Wei to Hanyang came back and brought back the news that surprised Sun Wei that Hanyang had been recovered, and Zhao Chengwu, the leader of the rebel army, led the rebel army to attack Hankou.

Sun Wei immediately decided to change the order that the army should march to Hankou. When Sun Wei's army arrived in Hankou, Zhao Chengwu had already led his army to capture the new army camp in Hankou and led his troops to join Sun Wei. Sun Wei couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the world had been tired of the Qing Dynasty for a long time, and even the army was unwilling to give his life to the Qing Dynasty, and the demise of the Qing government was a historical inevitability.

Zhao Chengwu led the army to meet Sun Wei, and Sun Wei personally led the crowd to greet him. Sun Wei saw that the army behind Zhao Chengwu was more than 2,000 people, and immediately ordered Zhao Chengwu to be the standard, and Zhao Chengwu recommended Hu Yuzhen, Qiu Wenbin, and Ming Mengsen as the pipe band, and Sun Wei adopted them one by one. Sun Wei immediately ordered Wang Hu to take the letter of appointment, and ordered Zhao Chengwu to be the third standard commander of the Hubei Revolutionary Army, Hu Yuzhen to be the fifth battalion band, Qiu Wenbin to be the sixth battalion band, and Ming Mengsen to be the seventh battalion band. Immediately, Sun Wei issued a list of security and recruitment, preparing to settle the people and recruit new soldiers.

Sun Wei ordered Zhang Shouyi and Han Dong to lead the gendarmerie battalion into the Hankou City bomb area to prevent those Manchu remnants and young people from counterattacking. He himself led the army into Hanyang, and set up camp in the Hanyang military camp to make a fire and cook. Sun Wei himself took Wang Hu and the two brigades of the guard battalion to the Hanyang Arsenal.

The Hanyang Arsenal originally had a general office and a superintendent, equivalent to the director and deputy director of the factory, but they ran away at the beginning of the revolution, and the biggest official in the current arsenal is a manager surnamed Liu, named Li Xilin, who is also a technician. When Sun Wei arrived at the Hanyang Arsenal, Steward Liu had already led the technicians and apprentices of the arsenal to wait outside the factory. Seeing Sun Wei's guard of honor, Liu Xilin led people to greet him, and after seeing Sun Wei, he led the crowd to kneel down and said: "Liu Xilin, the manager of the arsenal, led all the technicians and apprentices of the arsenal to greet the overseers. There was a cry of applause from the Overseers. Overseer is an honorific title given to a warlord during the warlord melee of the Republic of China.

Sun Wei said: "Now that the revolutionary army is in power, there is no need to bow down, get up and answer." Liu Xilin said yes and led the crowd to stand up. Sun Wei looked up at the gate of the sapper factory and couldn't help but sigh. This is the Hanyang Arsenal, which will not only affect the present, but also the whole of China for twenty or thirty years in the future. The Hanyang and old sleeves made in the Anti-Japanese War were made from here.

Sun Wei stood at the gate of the factory and looked at the gate without moving, and Liu Xilin did not dare to urge. Sun Wei stood at the door for a while before waking up from his memories. Seeing that everyone was standing there, no one dared to speak out, and when he thought of his power today, he suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment. He said to the arsenal, "It's mine." ”

Everyone was stunned! (To be continued.) )
