Chapter 145: Foolish Dreams
"Where do I find the rubber tube?" Wang asked.
"The rubber tube is made of rubber, which is a white sap secreted by rubber trees, which is very viscous and can be made into many useful things. The process is like taking lacquer from a lacquer tree. Zhang Weizhao found a way that Wang Zhi could easily understand.
"I know the sumac tree, but the rubber tree has never been heard of." Wang Zhihu looked at Zhang Weizhao suspiciously.
"Rubber trees are not a product of Great Yan. It was born in the Americas. ”
"America? Where is America? There is no such thing as America in Kyushu? ”
"America is farther west than Europa."
"Europa is going west......" Wang Zhi muttered.
Taking advantage of Wang Zhi's lack of speech, Zhang Weizhao thought quickly. What she thought about the most was whether it was possible to kill Wang Zhi efficiently and quickly and get out safely.
She knew that Wang Zhi was a shrewd person, so she lowered her eyelids and tried to relax herself, so as not to leak the killing intention for Wang Zhi to find out.
"When Chengzu sent the Three Treasure Eunuchs to the West, was he about to go to the Americas?" Wang asked.
"America is farther than where the eunuchs of the Three Treasures went."
"If we can build a ship bigger than the treasure ship of the Three Treasure Eunuchs and bring more supplies, will we be able to reach it?" Wang Zhijiong looked at Zhang Weizhao intently.
"It should be." Zhang Weizhao said perfunctorily.
"So roughly calculated, a round trip, at least it will take a year or two, at most two or three years. So you think that for at least two or three years, not only will I not be able to trouble you, but I will have to provide for you well, waiting for the rubber tree to be moved and made into a rubber tube, and then you can start to do that operation. Speaking of this, Wang Zhi suddenly changed his face and said sharply: "Zhaoming Zhenren, you are not very clever in using this delaying strategy!" Are you fooling me? ”
"Am I making up lies to delay time, you can just look at the surgical process I wrote to you at the earliest." Zhang Weizhao said expressionlessly.
Wang Zhi brought a transcript of the surgical procedure that Zhang Weizhao had written to him before.
The originals had long been kept for him. He showed the transcript to several surgeons, most of whom thought it was incredible, but admitted that there was a profound medical theory in it, and if this operation could be done, it would mean that many surgeries that could only be found in legendary stories could become reality, such as Hua Tuo's craniotomy. One of the doctors insisted on seeing the author of the manuscript to discuss it in person, thinking that many of the links in it looked very strange, but it made sense to think about it, and asked the person who wrote it how he knew about it.
These doctors originally said that they could not do the surgery written in this plan, but Wang Zhi forced them to use torture and extermination to force the children to use the knife, and the result can be imagined.
Wang Zhi was too anxious. He felt that he was living so unhappily because he lacked the most precious thing of a man. If he has this thing, with his ingenuity and mind, the emperor will do everything he can, and still use such grievances to be a slave to others?
So he gave all his treasures and tried every means to get his treasure back.
Wang Zhi took out the stack of papers and carefully handed it to Zhang Weizhao. Zhang Weizhao flipped out the relevant part and showed it to Wang Zhi: "Actually, I have written here a long time ago, and I also drew pictures." ”
Wang Zhi looked at it, and he really wrote and painted the relevant links a long time ago. It's just that at first he and the doctors didn't understand what was going on.
"So you have to have such a tube to pour blood into the human body? Can't you drink it? Wang Zhi asked.
"No, I can't. It must be injected into the blood vessels. ”
"Is it okay to replace it with a different tube? Good reed pipes or wheat stalks. ”
"No, it must be soft before you can connect the needle and insert it into the meridians."
"There's no other way?" Wang Zhi does not give up.
"There's no other way!" Zhang Weizhao said it categorically.
Hearing Zhang Weizhao say this, Wang Zhi stopped talking again. In fact, Wang Zhi has always been in awe of Zhang Weizhao, firstly, because a lot of miraculous things did happen to Zhang Weizhao, and secondly, over the years, he has tried a lot of home remedies in order to be reborn with a broken limb, but all of them have been ineffective, and only Zhang Weizhao has given him some real hope.
But do you really want to go to that far-flung America to find rubber trees? It's a long way to go, when do you have to wait?
Wang Zhi babbled in his mouth, making gestures as he spoke, and kept circling in circles around the room.
Zhang Weizhao observed cautiously on the side, only to feel that Wang Zhi seemed to be talking to several different people, talking back and forth, and felt that the symptoms of this person's schizophrenia had been very obvious.
At this time, one of Wang Zhi's cronies came to the door and said that he had something to do.
Wang Zhi walked out.
Zhang Weizhao took this opportunity to look around to see if there was anything that could be used as a weapon. But this room is only a vestibule in the basement, and there is nothing but a simple set of tables and chairs. Even the candlesticks are embedded in the wall, and it is difficult to pull them out.
Zhang Weizhao had a whim, I wonder if there is any secret passage connected to the basement? wanted to stay and investigate, but Wang Zhi pushed the door back again.
Zhang Weizhao quickly restrained his probing expression before the door was fully opened, and returned to leaning against the wall without moving.
Wang Zhi walked over step by step, with a weird smile on his face: "Guess what? Zhaoming Zhenren, Your Majesty really values you! Transferring the most capable people from the West Factory out to search the whole city is a treatment that the princes and ministers who absconded from crimes in the past did not have! ”
Zhang Weizhao just looked at him silently.
"That's it, Zhaoming Zhenren, I have two paths here, you can do it yourself."
"Which two paths?" Zhang Weizhao asked.
"One is that I lock you in the cellar, and after three or five years I find the rubber tree to make the pipe you are talking about, and then release you. The other is that with me, I will send you back to the palace. Don't you want to be just a concubine? Then you will be the queen, okay? As long as you can give birth to a son, you will be the queen mother in the future! Isn't it better than being a crown princess who is not embarrassed or embarrassed, and I don't know if I can be promoted to a queen smoothly? ”
"If I want to be a queen, can you help me fulfill my wish?" Zhang Weizhao lowered his voice, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Grandpa Wang has such a big breath!" ”
"As long as you help me get things done, I can help you get things done." Wang Zhi patted his chest confidently.
"What do you want me to do?"
"I don't ask you where you learned about these amazing healing skills, or where you learned about the Americas or Europa, or whether you are a god or a demon. I just want you to go back to the palace and help me blow the wind with the emperor. I am interested in rebuilding the fleet of the Three Treasure Eunuchs. Break the waves and sail away, and raise the prestige of my country. This is a very good thing, but if this proposal is proposed, there will definitely be people who will shout about the emptiness of the treasury and the waste of people's resources. That's where you come out and help. ”
"Grandpa Wang wants to lead the fleet on a long voyage?"
"Naturally, I can't go, and the emperor can't leave me. But there are people in the palace who are willing to go. ”
Zhang Weizhao looked worried: "This thing is not easy to do, let me think about it." ”
The old god Wang Zhi was saying, "What's so bad about this? With the emperor's favor for you and my means, this matter is not as difficult as you think. Still," he said with a sad smile, "You like to be locked in the ice cellar?" ”
Zhang Weizhao raised his eyebrows and said, "Can you guarantee that I will come according to your plan when I go back to the palace?" Aren't you afraid that I will cross the river and tear down the bridge? ”
Wang Zhi sneered and said, "Then you should think more about your master outside the palace and the dozens of children in the school." ”
Zhang Weizhao frowned, looking like he dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, and after a while, he finally exhaled and said, "Okay, I'm willing to cooperate with you." ”
Wang Zhimei smiled: "That's right, you know that you are a smart person." Wait a minute, let's talk, don't go to the palace. After returning to the palace, you should be calm and impatient, and when the emperor's anger passes, you coax him more, and I will arrange it behind my back. You're just waiting for your good days to come. ”
Zhang Weizhao glanced at Wang Zhi and did not speak.
Wang Zhi was not afraid of Zhang Weizhao's moth at this time, so he locked her indoors, found someone to guard her, and left to arrange things by himself. As I walked, I felt like a fire burning in my heart.
He remembered the days when he was captured and plundered into Beijing.
Few people know that he was escorted to the capital with Chen Youcong's biological mother Ji Lingyun. Yes, he is also from Fuji Township, and his grandfather was the patriarch of the people of Fuji Township.
In their clan, the men are handsome and the women are beautiful. Both men and women have a good voice.
Although Ji Lingyun's father was a Tusi appointed by the government, in the hearts of many people in Tengxiang, the patriarch was their real leader.
The people of Fujixiang wanted to get rid of the rule of Da Yan and stand on their own, but they were suppressed by Da Yan's troops. Ji Lingyun and his family died in the war, Ji Lingyun was spared because he was young and beautiful, and he was young and young.
He was only six years old that year, and he was packed into a bullock cart with a group of young children and transported into Beijing like young animals. Along the way, I was displaced and suffered a lot. thought that when he arrived in the capital, life would be better, but who knew that what was waiting for him was the shame that tore apart his life.
Why can the people of the Chen family do whatever they want, but he has to be castrated, trampled on, and rely on flattery to make a living?
In his eyes, Chen Jianjun is willful and fragile, and will only follow the nurse to ask for milk, and he is not worthy of being an emperor at all. Wan Guifei is an arrogant and domineering village woman. The Queen Mother is no different from the short woman in the market family, and she has no ambition at all. And Chen Youcong is a hypocritical child who is hypocritical.
Such a family is too far behind his family. In his memory, his grandfather was wise and loving, his father was wise and decisive, and his mother was gentle and generous, and the family lived together in harmony. If it weren't for that kind of change, he would be ...... now
He closed his eyes and muttered into the air: "Okay, grandfather, I know, I don't cry, I'm fine, I'll be better in the future......".
