Chapter 119: Can You Eat It?
"Pei Qing, you sit, you sit."
This is the first time Cao Chao has summoned Pei Xiu in the West Hall, and there are very few ministers who can be summoned in the West Hall in the past, except for those clans, there are only a few cronies.
The rest of the people were basically formally received in the East Hall.
It was the first time that Pei Xiu was summoned alone in the West Hall.
This shows that Pei Xiu was really accepted by Cao Chao and became one of Cao Chao's real henchmen.
When Cao Chao held Pei Xiu's hand, Pei Xiu didn't feel anything, but this time he was a little excited.
I didn't expect that I would be able to conspire with His Majesty alone in the West Hall!
In the past, Zhong Hui sat here and conspired with the emperor on how to make himself suffer!
Thinking that in the future, he could conspire with the emperor to make others suffer, Pei Xiu was still a little happy in his heart.
Cao Chao asked directly: "I am looking for you this time for something that you are very good at." ”
"Oh? Is Your Majesty going to make a cartograph? ”
Pei Xiu hurriedly asked.
"No, it's for the sake of refining."
Cao Chao's face was sincere, while Pei Xiu was surprised.
Your Majesty, don't be tempted.
I'm really not convinced!!
Pei Xiu explained helplessly, "Since Your Majesty informed him of the dangers of dispersion, the minister has never touched the cold food suit again, and it has been many years, and as for the matter of refining and refining alchemy, the minister has completely forgotten about it."
Cao Chao shook his head, "Don't be afraid, I'm not here to reprimand you, but I just want to ask you something." ”
"Do you know alum?"
As soon as Cao Chao asked, Pei Xiu immediately replied: "I know, take four alum, take six beans, boil it into two liters of water to make one liter, add honey and cough cough, why does Your Majesty ask this?" ”
Cao Chao looked at Pei Xiu faintly.
He used to think that Pei Xiu was so obedient and only lived to be in his forties.
Now he thinks that he has lived to be in his forties like this???
You don't want to stuff everything in your mouth!!
Each of them is a Wei Jin biochemical demon, right??
Seeing Cao Chao's eyes, Pei Xiu said solemnly: "It's been a long time since I surrendered. ”
"Xiu, this thing is poisonous, you here"
Cao Chao didn't know what to say.
The main formula of Wushisan is made up of five kinds of stones, namely Dansha, Realgar, Alum, Zeng Qing, and Cishi.
In fact, that's extracting the chemicals in it.
But it's important to understand that there is no one formula!
The Wei and Jin dynasties were the era when everyone was crazy about refining stones and eating stones, and since He Yan, a famous man in the world, opened a precedent for everyone to serve and disperse, countless people sought after him.
From the clan to the clan, to the scholars at the bottom, everyone is obsessed with obedience.
They began to painstakingly study various formulas, there was nothing they didn't dare to eat, there were dozens of main formulas circulating among the people at that time, not to mention those home remedies, adding up to more than 100 kinds of which was considered a few.
These formulas continued to appear many years later, and Sun Simiao recorded many types, and in the end, he simply warned everyone: If you encounter this type of recipe, you must burn it, and don't stay to harm the world!!
And these things are all primitive chemical equations, and the ghost knows what they have refined.
Then the world ushered in an era of utter madness.
Although you can't blame everything at that time, this thing is really a disaster.
Cao Chao asked again: "The phospholite"
Pei Xiuhu asked suspiciously: "Can phosphostone also be eaten?" ”
"That's right, I found a few ancient books and learned that there is a way to refine fertilizer."
Contrary to what many people think, the Chinese people realized very early on that the weeds in the field have the effect of promoting the growth of millet after decaying, probably in the Western Zhou Dynasty.
In the "Book of Victory" of the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, the knowledge of how to fertilize the land is recorded in detail.
In the Wei and Jin dynasties, fertilization technology was already very advanced, and it was after the promotion of rice in the Song Dynasty.
At this time, the people knew how to use human and animal manure and rotten weeds to fertilize.
However, the role of this earthwork is always limited, and it is obviously not enough in the face of chemical fertilizers.
If it is in other dynasties, if you want to make this, I am afraid it will be very difficult, although this kind of fertilizer production is not very difficult, but it still requires professionals.
In the Wei and Jin dynasties, there was no such problem, there were too many professionals.
Just like Pei Xiu, Cao Chao asked him about the origin of these minerals, and so on, he could not only tell where to find these things, but he could even tell the taste of these things!
Pei Xiu was also surprised at the moment.
He knew that taking different formulas of powder would have different effects, for example, the alum that His Majesty just said, when paired with different materials, some can make people hot, some can make people chill, and some can make people ascend to immortals
But he didn't really know that these things could be used as fertilizer.
In the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, people were very sensitive to things like alchemy, especially as an emperor, if they dared to ask the ministers about related matters, they were afraid that they would not cause a bunch of people to persuade them to die, and directly took the first emperor as an example, saying that they would die in front of the emperor and ask for the execution of the ministers who talked to him.
But now, everyone's acceptance is very high, obedience is a graceful thing, and the same is true of alchemy, what is there to object to?

The two of them began to talk with all kinds of stones.
Sure enough, Pei Xiu is clear about stones, there are many stones that Cao Chao doesn't know how to call them at the moment, as long as Cao Chao can describe a rough idea, Pei Xiu can immediately say the name.
He is worthy of being a ruthless person who died after being dispersed!
But when Cao Chao talked to him about production, Pei Xiu hesitated.
"Your Majesty, although the ministers used to be easy to obey, but the specific refining, the ministers are not so clear, this requires a special alchemist, and the ministers are all purchased from them"
Cao Chao somewhat understood that the nobles who served the scattered like this, they also had special desperate scattered masters to make loose for them, and these scattered masters were real professionals.
Although Pei Xiu is also proficient in this, he is not good at making, only good at eating.
Then things are much simpler.
Cao Chao knows a super master in alchemy, the kind that has never been done before, the super alchemist Ge Hong.
However, this person has not yet been born, and I am afraid that it will be more than ten years before he is born
Are there still professional alchemists today?
Naturally, there are them, and as far as Pei Xiu knows, there are dozens.
"The best of them all is King Dongping"
"Who'???"
Cao Chao's eyes widened, and he looked at Pei Xiu on the side in astonishment.
"King Dongping is the best at refining powder, and he also personally wrote several scattered formulas, which are famous all over the world, and ministers like to buy from him in the past, and his scattered is the best"
King Dongping.
Cao Chao pondered for a moment, and suddenly remembered who this was.
Cao Xi, the son of Cao Hui, King of Dongping Ling, and the grandson of Emperor Wu Cao Cao.
Counting it up, Cao Chao has to politely call his uncle.
Okay, this is the clan taking the lead in refining and dispersing, right?
Cao Chao didn't know how to complain about this matter at the moment.
I actually have an uncle who is a desperate teacher.
He immediately ordered that the king of Dongping come to Luoyang immediately.
In addition to King Dongping, Pei Xiu also knew several excellent dispersion masters, but what Cao Chao didn't expect was that Huangfu Mi actually knew how to refine and disperse.
Isn't it, he's also dissatisfied?? Isn't his illness a consequence of his dispersion?
In addition to these two, there are also many folk refiners, and Pei Xiu's list here is very sufficient.
Cao Chao gave orders to these people one by one to gather all these people.
But before gathering these people, Cao Chao wanted to meet Huangfu Mi.
He can understand everyone else, but Huangfu Mi, what's the matter with you?!
The two world-class celebrities at the moment, the father of cartography, and the father of acupuncture and moxibustion are also dissolved, right? ?
Huangfu Mi was in Luoyang, and he even served as an errand for the imperial doctor, so he was quickly brought to Cao Chao.
And Pei Xiu happened to take on the job of a writing officer.
Cao Chao's greetings, Huangfu Mi looked at his mouth shape and could still understand, after a simple greeting, Cao Chao asked: "Huangfu Gong, are you also easy to disobey??" ”
Pei Xiu hurriedly wrote, and then picked it up and showed it to Huangfu Mi.
Huangfu shook his head, "The ministers are not easy to disperse. ”
Cao Chao asked again: "Then Pei Xiu said that you are very good at refining the recipe, what is the situation?" ”
Huangfu Mi watched Pei Xiu finish writing, and his face was quite helpless.
He hastened to explain.
It turned out that unlike Pei Xiu, who regarded the service as a matter of grace, Huangfu Mi and others were studying its prescription and making it as a real medicine.
In fact, these five stones were originally born as medicine, and those stones can actually be used in medicine
Huangfu Mi is to cure diseases, while Pei Xiu is to get sick.
Cao Chao suddenly realized.
This is still acceptable, otherwise, Huangfu Mi's medical family's filter, which has a good impression on him, will be directly shattered.
Cao Chao immediately talked about the things he knew about the ancient recipe to Huangfu Mi.
Huangfu Mi is much more professional than Pei Xiuke, and he even has his own "laboratory" and many supporting tools.
However, according to Huangfu Mi, although he is studying this aspect, his research is not too deep, and it is still only in its infancy, and it is still a little worse than those most professional
Cao Chao also understood, it seems that he still has to wait for the king of Dongping to come.
This one is the most professional.
Summoning scattered teachers from all over the world to his side, on the one hand, is to prevent them from harming those celebrities in various places, and on the other hand, it is also to let them professionally engage in chemical experiments.
After all, what these people have come up with is much more complicated than those two kinds of fertilizers, and they can make it, so there is no reason why these two fertilizers can't be made.
From the Wei and Jin dynasties, we often recorded all kinds of ghosts, and we can know that there may be something in the recipe of Wushi powder they use that makes them hallucinate, well, something that can't be explained, Cao Chao thinks this thing is much more complicated than chemical fertilizer!!
Next, just wait for these guys to arrive in Luoyang.
