Qin Di knew what he wanted and didn't care what others thought.

For him, the most important thing is the body. He basks in the sun every day, absorbs the essence of the sun and the moon, plus his spiritual inner guard, breathes and breathes, and occasionally can barely absorb a pitiful trace of spiritual energy from the barren air, so he has accumulated for seven or eight years, and finally refined a breath of true qi, which is used on his fingers and can poke a hole in a half-inch thick plank. However, the amount of True Qi he had accumulated was too small to cover an entire fist, let alone an arm.

Those who practice martial arts practice their breath internally and their muscles and bones externally.

Those ordinary martial artists, after training for a lifetime, can't refine their true qi.

Qin Di doesn't need to practice boxing like others, he cultivates the internal cultivation of the immortal family, and he wants to use his true qi to open up the twelve canons and the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, and then gather in the dantian to complete the process of building the foundation, and then condense the golden pill. It's a pity that this world lacks aura, and I don't know if I have to wait until the Year of the Monkey to gain something.

He has clearly realized that if he wants to improve his skills, it is not enough to simply bask in the sun. He needs to travel all over the famous mountains and rivers to see if there is any aura in other places. But he is only eight years old, where can he go? There are no mountains around the magic capital at all, and a Sheshan Mountain is only 98 meters, so can it be called a famous mountain and a big river?

Therefore, he could only go to the Ci'an Hall, open one drawer after another, and inspect those herbs.

He found that there were some herbs, and there was a faint aura, such as ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, astragalus, yellow essence, etc., but these things were very valuable, and as a child, he had no reason to take a large amount of medicine from Ci'an Hall at will.

"It seems that I need to make some money, and I can't move an inch without money!"

At this time, my sister Qin Ling was ten years old and was in elementary school. Her younger sister Qin Yue is frail and sickly, and she often has a fever.

Although her mother, Zhu Wan, is a doctor, whenever her daughter has a fever, there is no good way to cool down except for physical cooling.

On this day, she received a small amount of white pills from Tracy, a missionary at St. Joseph's Cathedral.

She fed Qin Yue a pill, and Qin Yue's fever quickly subsided.

She squeezed the small medicine bottle tightly and couldn't help but praise: "Tsk, it's really a good thing." ”

Qin Di glanced at it, showed an excited look, and asked, "Is this an aspirin?"

Zhu Wan turned her head suddenly, looked at him and said, "Ah Di, do you know this thing?

Qin Di was silent, because he couldn't find the original book, although there were already medical journals in those years, but he rarely crossed the ocean to send it to the magic capital.

Zhu Wan didn't expect her son to answer, so she continued: "You're right, this is an aspirin from Bayer in Germany, and it has not been sold to China because of its limited production." It took me two hundred oceans to get this little. ”

Qin Di knew that aspirin was one of the three miracle drugs in the history of medicine, which was successfully developed in Germany in 1897, formed a commodity in 1899, and was officially sold to China after 1930. In other words, this is a miracle medicine for collecting money, and if it can be developed, there is no need to worry about funds.

Therefore, he thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, and resolutely said, "Mom, in fact, this medicine is very simple, we can make it ourselves!"

Zhu Wan's eyes widened, and she said, "What? You said you made it yourself, do you know the specific method?"

Qin Di smiled and said, "I really know."

Zhu Wan said: "Where do you know? Even if you know, but people have patents! We can't just make them, otherwise we will have to suffer lawsuits." ”

Qin Di snorted lightly: "As the saying goes, 'the sky is high and the emperor is far away', it is a German company, can it manage my Qing Dynasty?"

Zhu Wan said: "Why can't you manage it? Don't forget, we are in the concession! ”

Qin Di explained: "Mom, you don't have to worry, we can bypass the patent! I heard that there are eight ways to make aspirin, and the Germans use one of them, and we can use another way, even if we apply for a patent." ”

Zhu Wan was stunned by Lei Deli and was scorched, and took a deep breath: "Adi, you ...... Isn't it a joke? Can we really make this life-saving drug on our own?"

As a surgeon, the most headaches are infections and fevers, and if the fever can be curbed, it will be a great achievement! Therefore, her first thought is to benefit the patients, and she does not think about how much money she can make.

Since Qin Di opened his mouth, he didn't want to hide it anymore, anyway, it was his own mother who was obedient, and he was not afraid of being caught by others to slice and study: "If you want to make aspirin, you need salicylic acid and acetic anhydride, and you also need a catalyst." The Germans used concentrated sulfuric acid as a catalyst, which not only had a low yield, but also was more dangerous. We can switch to citric acid. ”

Zhu Wan was even more surprised when she heard a series of chemical terms.

She knew about salicylic acid, and early doctors knew from the fifth century that willow bark had a bitter substance in it that could be used to cool down, but because it was too acidic, it was not a good antipyretic.

She hadn't heard of acetic anhydride, only acetic acid: "Tell me, what is acetic anhydride?"

Qin Di explained: "Acetic acid can be cracked at high temperature and then absorbed with ethylene to obtain acetic anhydride. It is a colorless liquid. ”

"And what about citric acid? We don't have many lemons here. ”

"Citric acid can be prepared by starch fermentation. ”

After listening to this, Zhu Wan was stunned for a long time.

She couldn't eat any of these things, and although she knew that her son was unusual, she couldn't imagine such a miracle.

She thought to herself, "If I could make aspirin, my son would be an angel! Could it be that he was sent by the Father to enlighten the world?"

Qin Di couldn't wait to say these strange words, because he wanted to earn more money before the chaotic times came, collect the rare spiritual energy in the world, and strive to complete the foundation building in his lifetime! As long as the foundation building was completed, he would be able to live for hundreds of years! Cultivation needs to be done as soon as possible, the younger the better, and the later it is delayed, the more difficult it will be.

It is precisely because of this that he is desperate to say shocking words.

Otherwise, if he waits until he is eighteen years old to show his prominence, he will miss the best age to cut his hair and wash the marrow, and his achievements in this life will be very limited.

Since you are a very human being, you should do extraordinary things!

Therefore, he vigorously encouraged his mother: "Mom, take out your private money and go to your grandfather for help." We can make aspirin!"

Zhu Wan hadn't come back to her senses yet, and asked confusedly, "How much does it cost?"

Qin Di said: "Two thousand silver dollars is almost enough. Ask someone to do a few experiments. ”

"Huh, who do the experiments?"

"I heard that Fudan Public School has a Faculty of Arts, a Faculty of Science and a School of Business, and I can ask my grandfather to find a few people in the Faculty of Science to extract salicylic acid, acetic anhydride and citric acid separately. I have all the specific methods, just repeating them. ”

After pausing for a long time, Zhu Wan woke up: "Ah...... My Adi is an angel! Only angels do!"

She calmed down, thought for a moment, and said, "Since that's the case, there's no need to do preliminary experiments." I went to a foreign company and asked if I could buy some materials from Europe. ”

Qin Di said: "This is the industrial base. Inevitably, sooner or later. ”

Zhu Wan said softly: "Ah Di, we have limited funds, so we can't spread the stall too big. ”

Qin Di thought about it and agreed.

Because even if the test is successful, it will cost a lot of money to build a factory, start a company, and purify raw materials on a large scale. It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and if she does not have enough funds, she cannot do anything.
