Awarding Lu An the honor of being a scholar was not out of Zuo Mengeng's selfish motives.
This matter was brought up by Wang Yun.
Once it was proposed, it was immediately recognized by everyone.
In the opinion of many people, Lu An's contributions and achievements are even higher than those of Qin Luo and Li Meizhi.
If this is not worthy of the honor of being a national scholar, then no one is worthy of it.
Wang Yun's proposal was sent back to China, and all the senior officials expressed their approval and reached a consensus.
It can be said that even if Zuo Menggeng objects, it will be invalid.
After learning the true situation, Lu An was still a little uneasy, but he also knew that he could not object.
So far, Xia Kingdom has three national scholars.
And without exception, these three national scholars are all young people.
There are many celebrities in the Xia Kingdom, and all of them are famous all over the world, but in the end, young people take the lead.
Twenty-year-old Qin Luo, nineteen-year-old Li Meizhi, and eighteen-year-old Lu An have become superstars that the world looks up to.
"Vaccine vaccination is being carried out in China. No epidemic has been detected yet, so it can be deployed calmly and there is no need to be so urgent."
Cowpox could prevent and cure smallpox, which drove everyone crazy.
You can ignore everything else, this work must be put in front.
Therefore, even though the spread of smallpox has not yet been detected in Xia State, vaccination has begun with the joint efforts of everyone.
The difference from North Korea is that the domestic vaccination speed does not need to be too fast, just take it slowly.
The advantage of this is that the production of needles and syringes will not be affected.
"The current approach is to search for existing vaccinia in livestock, but the source is uncertain and the quantity is limited, which may not meet the needs. Can you study whether it is possible to conduct vaccination on livestock to obtain a stable smallpox vaccine?"
Although Lu An and others have made great achievements, Zuo Mengeng is not satisfied, but puts forward new hopes.
The Xia Kingdom's current population has exceeded 10 million. It will definitely be a huge amount of work to vaccinate all so many people.
It’s not very reliable just to look for naturally occurring vaccinia in livestock.
Zuo Menggeng is not a medical expert, and he does not know how the smallpox vaccine was obtained in later generations. In this era when cowpox can only be grown, if artificial cultivation can be carried out, a big problem can be solved.
He just mentioned it, but it immediately opened up a new world for Lu An and others.
"The method my brother mentioned may be feasible. I will study it now and hope it will succeed."
Lu An is a science fanatic and has no time to spare. I just received my national certificate and got back to work.
It's just different from before. There are many more people around her.
The Xia State attaches great importance to its national scholars, especially the protection work, which is even more meticulous.
As the political center of the Xia Kingdom, vaccination in Jinan started first.
In a restaurant, business is booming at noon.
A middle-aged man wearing a long robe and a bamboo basket walked in calmly.
The waiter saw it and hurriedly greeted him with a strange look in his eyes.
If it were in the past, such outfits could be seen everywhere, so it wouldn't be surprising. However, in recent years, the clothing of Shandong people has changed rapidly, and things like this can definitely be called old-fashioned.
Fortunately, the waiters have been trained and their face has not been exposed.
"Sir, please take a seat. What kind of food are you going to have?"
The man put down the bamboo basket and took a deep breath. When I saw the menu handed over by the waiter, I couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
I saw that not only the names of the dishes were written on the menu, but there were even pictures, which were lifelike. This allows you to roughly understand what the dish is like at a glance.
The man thought about it.
"Let's have a piece of Yipin tofu and Sixi meatballs, and two steamed buns. Also, could you please give me a glass of water?"
The waiter responded one by one and turned around.
The man sat and waited alone, raised his eyes and looked around, and couldn't help but let out a sigh.
He has traveled extensively these days and has seen a lot.
The difference between Xia Kingdom and Ming Dynasty is getting bigger and bigger.
These Xia people can no longer see much of their original appearance.
Just when he was feeling emotional, a large group of people walked in outside the restaurant.
The costumes of this group were even more outlandish.
They were all wearing white robes, white hats, and white hoods on their faces, and they were wrapped tightly from head to toe.
"I'm sorry to disturb everyone's meal. But the world is huge and human life is the most important. How about we get things done first?"
The guests who were eating did not show any anger, but all laughed.
"Everyone has been working hard all day, and it's really hard. With you here, we all feel at ease."
"It's already dinner time, and you guys don't take a break. It's really distressing. Don't leave until you're done. Just eat here and I'll treat you."
The owner of the restaurant had already walked out from the back and immediately laughed and cursed after hearing this.
"Wang Mazi, what do you mean? In my restaurant, do you need to invite all the doctors to dinner? Isn't that a slap in my face? I'll treat you!"
Everyone in the room burst into laughter, except Wang Mazi, who was sighing.
"If there had been such a magical medicine, my family would not have died in vain. It is because of His Highness's heavenly grace and the bodhisattva-hearted hearts of all the doctors that we, the people of Xia Kingdom, can have such a good life!"
Once the words come together, they can’t stop.
"Who says it's not the case? Only our Highness and Lu Guoshi are scholars of heaven and earth, so we can completely cure smallpox. From now on, we don't have to be afraid anymore."
The man who was waiting for the meal suddenly stiffened when he heard this.
What did he hear?
Did you hear wrongly?
Just when he was being hit hard, those people who were covered in tight clothes had scattered around the dining hall, and two more people came in front of him.
"Sir, please show me your identification."
The man was awakened and couldn't restrain his curiosity while taking out his identification.
"I just heard that dear friend say that smallpox can be cured. Is that really true?"
The doctor in white took his identity certificate, and when he saw that it was Lu Yin, he knew that he was not from the Xia Kingdom.
"You have just come to Xia Kingdom, right? You may still not know that Lu Guoshi, our Ministry of Health, has found a way to completely eliminate smallpox. I am here today to vaccinate everyone against smallpox. As long as the vaccination is completed, there will be no more smallpox from now on." Worry about infection.”
That person seemed to be crazy.
"Can smallpox really be cured? How can there be such a method in the world? Are you trying to deceive the world?"
The two doctors were so frightened that they backed away.
"Why are you so crazy? The cure for smallpox has been proven long ago and everyone knows it, so why are you lying?"
When the man saw all the eyes in the restaurant looking over, he realized that he had lost his composure.
He quickly recovered, but it was still difficult to calm down his excitement.
He bowed heavily to the two doctors.
"I am Wu Youxing in Xiawu County. He has practiced medicine all his life and has been thinking hard about how to control the plague. I wonder if you two can introduce me to Lu Guoshi, who is a scholar of heaven and man?"
