Chapter Eighty-Four: The Magical Little Pill

Alchemy, oh no, the development of medicines, can be said to be the professional counterpart of the Taoists. The Taoists of this era know a little bit of medical knowledge, and for the Taoists who practice Danshu, the mastery of medicine is a compulsory subject, so once Han Fei introduced them, they all understood their mission.

Xuan Xuanzi has been dealing with pills all his life, and he is very interested in the finished medicine described by Han Fei, and after Han Fei introduced it, he immediately commanded his apprentices to throw off their arms and work hard.

Refining a finished pill, like alchemy, requires a stove. In view of the fact that the Taoists had a record of fires, Han Fei used his brains and combined with the knowledge of later generations to create a set of safe and efficient boilers, equipped with a bellows to support combustion. The Taoists were both admired and moved, and their motivation was greatly improved.

In order to improve the efficiency of medicine refining, Han Fei divided the Taoists into three groups of decoction, distillation, and pill making according to the drug refining process, and carried out assembly line operations.

Although Han Fei handed over the pharmaceutical workshop to Xuan Xuanzi, in the early days, he personally commanded almost every day, and discussed and perfected the refining process with Xuan Xuanzi.

"Fei Di, how is the development of the finished drug progressing?"

These days, Wang Ruolan has been seeing Han Fei go out early and return late, and when he came back today, she couldn't help but ask.

"Eldest sister, the process of refining medicine is nothing more than boiling the medicine out of the juice first, then distilling and removing the water, and finally making the concentrated essence part into pills. The first two processes have been carried out smoothly, but the pill making has not been successful, the drug has become a paste, but it cannot be made into a pill, and then distilled for fear that it will be too much and lose its efficacy! Han Fei said with a frown.

"Brother Fei, don't rush, take your time, you will always think of a solution! Let's eat first, the food is getting cold! ”

"Eldest sister, didn't I say that you and Qin'er will eat first, don't wait for me to ......"

Xue Baoqin hurriedly said: "Big brother, if you don't come back, where can Sister Lan eat!" ”

Wang Ruolan smiled and said: "Sister Qin, it's true that you can't eat, when do you come back, the first sentence is not to ask if your eldest brother has come back, giggle......"

"Let you say ......" Xue Baoqin was embarrassed, and threw herself into Wang Ruolan's arms, tickling her squeaky nest.

"Okay, if you make trouble again, I'll eat first!" Han Fei motioned for Yin Xin to put the food on the table, and suddenly saw a plate of brown balls, and hurriedly asked, "What is this?" ”

Yin Xin replied: "This is made of potato flour, this year's newly ground potato flour has been on the market, and the slave maid specially asked the kitchen to buy some ......."

Han Fei seemed to have a hint of inspiration in his mind, and he stared at the brown round in a daze.

Yin Xin still thought that something was wrong, and glanced at Han Fei nervously, not daring to speak again. Wang Ruolan and Xue Baoqin also stopped laughing and looked at Han Fei suspiciously.

"I thought about it, haha......" Han Fei stood up and said with a smile: "You eat, I ......"

Wang Ruolan saw Han Fei's posture of going out, and hurriedly said: "Brother Fei, it's dark outside, where are you going?" ”

"Ah, I'm so happy that I get carried away, eat, let's eat, haha......"

Han Fei and Wang Ruolan Xue Baoqin have established their status in front of his mother's spiritual throne, and his relationship with Wang Ruolan has also been recognized by the Jinling Wang family. Although the three of them still sleep in separate rooms, they are together from time to time, and it is common to get tired of it for a while.

Especially Wang Ruolan, since she obtained the permission of the marriage letter of the Jinling Wang family, she has completely entered the role of a wife, and she has to make beds and quilts for Han Fei every day, and she will return to her room only after she has cleaned up.

"Brother Fei, you are so happy for dinner, did you think of a way to make pills?" Wang Ruolan asked while laying out the quilt.

Han Fei walked behind Wang Ruolan, hugged her waist, and said with a smile: "Yes, the potato powder that Yinxin bought back gave me inspiration, adding starch to the medicinal juice will definitely make a pill!" ”

"Starch ......"

Wang Ruolan wanted to ask what starch was, but under the magic of Han Fei's hands, she was already soft, and her panting voice was close to Han Fei's chest, too lazy to move.

Han Fei was also triggered by Wang Ruolan's flattery, and leaned down to kiss her fragrant lips and pink cheeks...... The hands moved even wilder.

"Non-brother...... If you want to ...... The concubine is ......"

The dream-like voice pulled Han Fei's hand and involuntarily touched Wang Ruolan's belt. Suddenly, he was startled in his mind and stopped moving.

"Non-Brother ......"

"Eldest sister, I almost made a big mistake, you are pregnant now, and the first three months are the most unstable time, we can't ...... Otherwise, it will affect the child! ”

Speaking of children, Wang Ruolan was also shocked, and her desire quickly subsided, "Non-brother, the concubine can't serve you...... Either you take Yinxin away, she's not too young......"

Han Fei patted Wang Ruolan's round buttocks and chuckled: "Eldest sister, I understand that you care about Yinxin, don't worry, Yinxin is loyal to you, I won't treat her badly, not yet, we still have no fixed place to live, wait until everything settles down!" ”

Wang Ruolan was silent for a while and said, "It's time for us to buy a house!" ”

"Eldest sister, to tell you the truth, I don't plan to settle in Gaochun, Gaochun is too small, not an ideal place to live, I have asked the shopkeeper Wu to pay attention to inquire in Jinling, buy a good house, and let's move to Jinling in the future!"

"Jinling ......" Jinling carries too many dreams of Wang Ruolan, and she can't help but be happy when she hears that she will live in Jinling in the future.

The method was right, and the pill was made smoothly, and the next night, when Han Fei came back, he brought back a large bottle of small brown pills.

"Brother Fei, does this pill work?" Wang Ruolan pinched a pill and asked.

"Of course, you have to find someone to try it first, and then sell it in the pharmacy after it proves that it is effective!"

"Who will test the medicine for us?"

"Ling'er's father, isn't there a large group of beggars under Huang Tuantou, now that the weather is cold, many of the beggars are sick, just let them try the medicine! After they verify that they are effective, we will provide them to the poor people for free treatment, and after a lot of experiments, they will be officially released! ”

"Brother Fei is thoughtful, and the concubine is worried that the common people will not be able to adapt to this medicine, and there are not many people who buy it!"

"In the early days, there was a possibility that once they realized the benefits of the pills, would anyone still buy the herbs from before? Besides, we can also use the people's declaration to make publicity, and with the influence of the people's declaration, I believe it will be quickly accepted by the people! ”

Han Fei has the knowledge of later generations, and knows that in later generations, Chinese patent medicine will be popular, and he is very confident in these small pills. Indeed, after a group of beggars tested the drug, it was proved that the efficacy of the finished drug was significantly higher than that of herbal medicine, not to mention the ease of use.

Next, Han Fei gave free medicine to the poor people to further verify the efficacy of the finished drug, and at the same time expand the awareness of the finished drug. At first, those poor people were still a little skeptical about the finished medicine, but based on the reputation of Han Fei's medical saint, they reluctantly accepted the treatment of the finished medicine, and the result was rave reviews.

Han Fei struck while the iron was hot, and used the influence of the people's declaration to carry out all-round follow-up reporting and publicity.
