Now that the imperial edict has arrived, let's go to the Jiaofang Division to see that various industries in Huimin Pharmacy have fallen into a bottleneck period, and the glass factory is not working properly in order to rebuild its home. Asking the servants at home to call Ergou and Qian Wu from the pharmacy to go to Jiaofangsi on Saturday to find him, Zheng Xiong walked slowly to Jiaofangsi.
In the early Ming Dynasty, Emperor Hongwu rebuilt the ritual and music system with Jiaofangsi as the center, built Fule Yuan, built sixteen floors, and erected railings.
With the Jiaofangsi as the core and the music registration system as the basis, the capital also established Fule Yuan as the residence of the musicians, built a sixteenth floor to facilitate the exchange of singing and drinking, and erected hook rails to prepare for the musicians to move and perform.
At this time, the main function of Jiaofangsi was still to manage and teach music, while official prostitutes existed in Fule Yuan, Sixteenth Floor, Goulan and other places, and these places were affiliated to Jiaofangsi.
Fule Yuan was first established in Hongwu. In fact, it was not mainly a place to accommodate official prostitutes, but a place for religious workers to live. At the same time, businessmen could also stay with prostitutes.
The design of the sixteenth floor is directly linked to the official prostitute system in the early Ming Dynasty. Hongwu held banquets on it several times to entertain his ministers. The Goulan is mainly used as a place for the musicians of the workshop to perform dramas and dramas.
From beginning to end, Jiaofangsi was just a department that managed official prostitutes under the leadership of the Ministry of Rites. Jiaofangsi was not equivalent to government-run brothels. The main responsibility of the Jiaofangsi is to manage the performance of music, dance and drama in the palace.
At this stage, the composition of Lehu is mainly composed of remnants of the former Yuan Dynasty and the surviving daughters of nobles, all of whom are good at singing and dancing. The main function of women in the Jiaofang Division is "female musicians". Women from the Le family were called prostitutes, who performed arts but not their bodies. She is not a prostitute, she sells her body but not her art.
Arriving at the door of Jiaofangsi, Zheng Xiong was about to go in, but the boy at the door suddenly stretched out his hand and stopped Zheng Xiong.
"Come here, please stop. Please explain what's the matter."
"My officer, Zheng Xiong, will collect it from Huimin Pharmacy. From today on, it will also be collected from Jiaofang Division."
The withdrawal from Huimin Pharmacy cannot be offended, and the two of them were in awe.
"Sir, I wonder if there is a seal. The two of us need to verify the authenticity."
"The imperial edict was issued today. I came over to take a look, but the seal has not been issued yet."
"My lord, please forgive me. Without a seal, we cannot let anyone in."
In the moment of excitement, he forgot about this, so there was nothing he could do. After waiting for a while, several of his younger brothers arrived, and Zheng Xiong took them back to the pharmacy.
Returning in vain, I had known that I had taken the imperial edict with me, but now it is too late to say anything.
The pharmacy handled some official business, and Zheng Xiong lay on the recliner in a daze.
After a while, Li Si came to the door and saw Zheng Xiong lying on the recliner, getting ready to sleep, and shouted softly.
"My lord, I am asleep."
"No, what's the matter?"
"It's nothing, I want to congratulate you, sir, for being promoted again."
"If you have nothing to do, just go. I have already received your congratulations. No need to say more."
"Sir, there is one more thing. Now that the temperature is rising, the mortality rate of our operation has increased a bit too high. Please give me some advice."
"What are the symptoms?"
"Most of them were traumatic infections, and a few cases were massive bleeding that couldn't be stopped."
"Alcohol doesn't help either."
"The effect is not high. The infection festers very quickly. It's okay in the early stage, but it doesn't work in the later stage if it festers."
"Didn't I tell you to use saltpeter to make ice? Didn't you use it?"
"I have already made ice, but the effect is not satisfactory."
Zheng Xiong thought for a while, there was nothing he could do about the massive bleeding, and blood transfusions were not random. Transfusion of various types of blood would be fatal, and the microscope had to be completed first.
Cleaning the wound with alcohol is only the first stage. With such a big hole in the stomach, it cannot be completely removed. Winter is not very obvious yet, but it will not work soon when summer comes. Ice making to cool down does not seem to work. Ice making cannot be made on a large scale to inhibit the growth rate of bacteria. Lowering the temperature by one or two degrees is of no use.
We can't count on penicillin for the time being, but we can use allicin. The difference between the two is mainly in the efficacy. The bacteria they kill are different. Under the same conditions, the effect of allicin is better.
The production of allicin is relatively simple. The simplest is to chop it and leave it for about fifteen minutes. This is the simplest allicin. This can be published in a journal.
The difficult part is the unique secret recipe, prepared exclusively by the pharmacy. Mash it, dry it, grind it again, put it in high alcohol, and what floats on the top for a while is allicin.
"There is nothing we can do about the problem of heavy bleeding, but we can try this kind of traumatic infection. Go get some garlic and bring it back."
"Yes, sir."
After a while, Li Si came back. This kind of garlic was introduced to our country from the Han Dynasty. It was called Hu garlic at the time. Now it can be seen everywhere as one of the important condiments.
Take it to the kitchen, ask the chef to simmer it, dry it slowly, go through the process, take the crushed and dried garlic, find a bottle of alcohol and put it in. It is double distilled alcohol, which should be enough. .
Seeing that Zheng Xiong had sealed his mouth, Li Si looked confused. It was over. Is it that simple?
"You will do this later. After a while, there should be a layer of objects floating on the alcohol. You can take it out and give it to the patient to drink and see the effect."
There is no such thing as intravenous injection. Without the technology, it can be as simple as drinking.
"Now you bring the rest of the garlic."
Li Si obediently followed the instructions. Zheng Xiong mashed the garlic, cut it into puree and put it in a bowl to cover it. He followed Zheng Xiong and waited for more than ten minutes. Zheng Xiong counted silently, but he was so bored.
Seeing that the time was almost up, I opened the lid and pointed at the minced garlic inside.
"From now on, after chopping it up like this, leave it for a quarter of an hour, give it to the patient, and see the effect."
"Yes, sir."
Li Si left respectfully. There was no need for his lord to question, he just did as he was told.
Li Si ran to deliver medicine, but without the helper, Zheng Xiong continued to be in a daze until he got off work.
The next day, I gathered everyone together and told everyone about the third issue of the journal, and asked if they had any experience to write about.
Everyone looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes. How long had this been, how could he have gained any experience?
You don’t want to give me any money, so don’t blame me for not giving you a chance. He waved everyone away and Zheng Xiong started writing silently.
On the dangers of early marriage and early childbearing.
On the benefits of breastfeeding for babies.
The effect of crushing garlic and letting it sit for a quarter of an hour to prevent infection.
I haven’t finished writing yet, but there are too few dry ones. I thought about it and just put an advertisement for my glass factory.
Do you want your clothes to be cleaner? Do you want your clothes to stop getting greasy? We are professional in removing stains and grease. Each bar only costs a small amount of money. You deserve the soap from Huimin Pharmacy Glass Factory.
Glass, better quality than crystal, what are you waiting for? The glass factory welcomes you.
After filling in some content, I felt much more comfortable. I picked up the written paper and went to the printing shop.
He found Lin Shi and handed him the paper in his hand.
"This is a three-issue journal. Print it first."
"Yes, sir."
"Have you finished printing the books in Taiyuan Hospital? Have you received any business recently?"
"I've received a few orders, and there are a few other yamen who want to do it for free, so I have to ask an adult to make the decision."
"Ignore anyone who prostitutes for nothing and doesn't pay."
After wandering around and seeing that nothing happened, Zheng Xiong left.
One day later, the third issue of the journal was officially released and sent to pharmacies in various places along with the inn.
