"Okay, okay, today's brainstorming is over, no need to embarrass everyone! Let me reveal my trump card!"
Xiao Letian personally picked up the teapot and poured a cup of herbal tea for everyone present. "Clear the fire, clear the fire! Things have to be done bit by bit, and the solution is always more difficult than the difficulty!"
"Facing the greed of human nature, we can only learn from Dayu. It's better to block than to block! Don't hold back this evil fire, let alone kill him. This is the fundamental reason why I don't punish Zhang Xiaowen severely!"
"Assigning him to the grassroots to endure hardships, one is to let all greedy people see my attitude and let them know to restrain themselves, and the other is not to completely scare them out of courage!"
"Seeing Zhang Xiaowen's fate, they will know that engaging in this kind of financial crisis is absolutely not allowed. Anyone who dares to use evil intentions will be punished by Zhang Xiaowen! Fight him to the end!"
"However, we have to give them a way to survive and let them know that our Chinese are not a place where killing is authorized and we will not kill indiscriminately. As long as you behave yourself and don't go out of your way, basic safety can still be guaranteed!"
"Let's scare them first. I know it won't last long, but if we give it another year and a half, our new business will be ready!"
"Xiang Ying! Open your sleeves and let everyone see..."
Xiang Ying was stunned and immediately understood. He opened the sleeves of his white shirt and pulled it up to his shoulders. He pointed with his hand, "Here, look at this. Is there a small scar here?"
"This is the... smallpox vaccine that the head of state led us to inject last month!"
ah! There was a crisp sound... Shopkeeper Fan Jian's tea cup fell to the ground, and the herbal tea spilled everywhere.
"Oh my God! Xiao Letian, what are you doing? What's smallpox... Stop talking, don't even mention this word!"
"How could there be smallpox? How could there be smallpox...Shut up!" The old man suddenly became hysterical.
Xiao Letian supported Lao Taishan, "Father, what's going on? Okay, what's going on? It's a vaccine, it's a smallpox vaccine... Our evil doctor Huang has come up with freeze-dried vaccine technology. He made the British The technology of growing cowpox has been refined!"
“This vaccine can save lives!”
smallpox! One of the most terrifying demons in human history!
This virus, which is transmitted by breathing, has a very high mortality rate and is especially lethal to children!
The Black Death, also known as the plague, as well as smallpox and typhoid, were all diseases that people in ancient times were afraid of. From the nobles in the palace to the traffickers and lackeys, everyone was afraid!
But this devil was demystified by British doctors in the 18th century, and they finally created the technology to prevent cowpox through vaccination!
However, it has been very difficult to promote this technology from the beginning. The forces of social habit have always been resistant, and the technology of using cowpox to breed smallpox is also very unstable.
Humanity cannot obtain smallpox vaccine on a large scale!
Therefore, this technology can only be promoted in a small circle, including the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which also had the technology to vaccinate cowpox, but many children in the royal family still died of smallpox every year!
This is actually a technical problem. Before chemical and biopharmaceutical technology matured, primitive cowpox vaccination was less reliable than farming!
In fact, the technical principle of smallpox vaccine, that is, cowpox vaccination, is very simple! Because smallpox virus is a virus that can co-infect humans and livestock!
Cattle, in particular, can also be infected with smallpox, but the lethality of the smallpox virus to cattle is much smaller. Cows and horses will have a lot of pox if they get smallpox, but the mortality rate is very low!
The pox on the bodies of cows infected with smallpox is actually very diluted smallpox virus, which has been weakened!
Inject this weakened virus into the human body, stimulate the human immune system to adapt, and finally obtain antibodies that can be relied on for life!
Smallpox is such a miraculous disease. If you catch it once and survive, your immune system will always remember what the virus looks like, and you will never be afraid of it again!
It is conceivable that this early vaccination technology is very unstable, and artificially breeding cattle with smallpox is also a dangerous job.
The cowpox vaccination technology mastered by the Manchus was full of uncertainties. It might be ineffective or it might lead to death from smallpox!
In fact, in the eyes of people like Dr. Huang who study biopharmaceuticals, this kind of problem is just a problem of purification!
After a lot of experiments, we found the purity of the vaccine that is most suitable for human cultivation. This is the guarantee of safety!
There are many desert islands in the Pacific. If cattle infected with smallpox are bred on a large scale, there is no need to worry about infecting them in densely populated areas!
The most important thing is that the Chinese have a very large ice-making industry. Before the birth of the refrigerator, nitrification ice-making and winter storage ice were the only methods!
What's interesting is that Xiao Letian is a person who came from time travel after all, with very strong living habits from his previous life. He loves cold drinks and refrigerated food.
What is good from above should be followed by those below!
The personal hobbies of the head of state soon became the common hobbies of the top Chinese elites, and these people's hobbies quickly spread to the people.
In addition, most of the areas controlled by the Chinese are in the sweltering south, and as a result, the ice-making industry has flourished extremely!
There is purification technology, there are places to breed sick cattle on a large scale, and there is also a cold chain required for long-distance transportation!
It’s impossible for the vaccine industry not to emerge!
"Everyone! I can assure you with all my heart that we, the Chinese, are now able to produce smallpox vaccines on a small scale!"
"Next step, I will start to register our technology all over the world, and then set up our company!"
"My goal is to build a vaccination hospital in the Qing Dynasty and all the prosperous cities in East Asia within one year! I want to announce to the world that the devil of smallpox has been completely conquered by the Chinese!"
"Just one shot of vaccine can prevent a child from getting smallpox for the rest of his life! How much do you think this shot should cost? The starting price is ten taels of silver, and I still have to spend three, six, nine, and so on!"
"The vaccines given to the royal nobles must be specially supplied. With the same quality, one shot will cost you a thousand taels. Do you want to take it?"
"The second-class one hundred taels, the cheapest ten taels for the common people!"
"And do you know how low the cost is? With an annual production capacity of 30,000 injections, the cost of one injection is only about one tael. In the future, as the scale expands, the cost can only decrease but not increase!"
"Think about it, everyone, what's the profit margin of this kind of business? It's not any worse than the profits of those trying to speculate on the financial crisis!"
"As long as the story is told well! The quality of the product is excellent and the reputation is built! Let's drop a super large-cap stock in the stock market and suck in all the flying money!"
"Let them speculate, speculate as they please! Just play with yourself behind closed doors!"
