Chapter 13 Artemisia annua

Zhao Hao is not a doctor and has never studied medicine.

He did not dare to assert such a disease of other diseases, but he knew only malaria very well. Because more than 400 years later, Tu Youyou won the Dynamite Medicine Award for discovering that artemisinin can cure malaria. At that time, there was a burst of artemisia fever in the country, and Grandma Tu also wrote an article to popularize science, saying that artemisinin did not come from Artemisia annua, but was extracted from Artemisia annua.

Therefore, Artemisia annua cannot cure malaria, but Artemisia annua can cure it. The Artemisia annua on Ge Hong's "Behind the Elbow" actually refers to Artemisia annua. It's just that these two plants belong to the same family, and it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish them, and even the "Materia Medica" makes a mistake about it, so doctors for thousands of years have mistakenly regarded Feng Jing as Ma Liang, and have been using Artemisia annua to treat malaria, of course, it can't be cured.

"What is Artemisia annua? How can it be used in medicine? Don't talk nonsense in your future life! The doctor was too lazy to talk nonsense to this boy, pretending to be amazing, and walked away with displeasure.

Zhao Hao shrugged helplessly, it seems that it is impossible to convince the family in a few words, and bow down.

The strong man didn't send the doctor out, nor did he pay attention to Zhao Hao, he stood there silently, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zhao Hao was embarrassed and didn't know what to say, but the strong man turned to look at him.

There was a deep knife wound on the right cheek of this person, and with the pair of copper bell-like eyes, his face looked very hideous.

Zhao Hao was a little hairy by the strong man, and began to regret that he was too talkative.

"This little brother, where are you from? Where did you hear that recipe? After a while, I heard the strong man ask in a muffled voice.

"I'm a neighbor who just moved in, and this recipe is passed down by the elders in the family." Zhao Hao replied in his heart, and said in his heart, since I came from the next generation, all the virtuous people in the future generations are my kind family. Grandma Tu is over 80 years old, so she is naturally worthy of the elders.

"That'...... What does an Artemisia annua look like? ”

Zhao Hao hurriedly explained carefully: "It is exactly the same as Artemisia annua, and it can't be distinguished from the appearance. Especially in this season, when the artemisia has just emerged, it is even more difficult to distinguish. ”

"Could it be that the little brother can't make it a pastime?!" The strong man frowned, and the scars on his face became more and more hideous.

"No, no, absolutely not!" Zhao Hao waved his hand again and again, and didn't dare to sell Guan Zi anymore and said: "You pick a handful of leaves and rub them, what smells is Artemisia annua." The one that can rub out the smell is Artemisia annua. ”

"That's right." The strong man nodded, and then asked, "Then how should I take it when I pick it back?" ”

"Soak it in warm wine for a few hours, squeeze the juice and give it to the old man to try." After Zhao Hao finished speaking, he added with a weak heart: "But I'm not a doctor, this recipe is hearsay, don't have too much hope." ”

"Well, there is a way to try. Don't worry, little brother, I won't blame you anyway. The strong man turned out to be a sensible person, and he heard Zhao Hao's worries.

Zhao Hao was waiting for this sentence, and he slipped away after speaking.

~~

When he got home, he remembered that he had been running away, but he had forgotten to borrow a broom and dustpan.

'It's a noble man who forgets things. Zhao Hao sighed secretly, and he didn't want to face the fierce strong man again. Fortunately, although Caijia Lane is not prosperous, there are still a few vendors who set up stalls to sell daily necessities.

He spent 30 yuan to buy a broom and a bucket from an old woman, and with a sweet mouth, he asked the family to spare a few pieces of cloth as a rag.

Back in the broken courtyard, he first picked up the cleanest piece of cloth and covered his mouth and nose to fill the mask. Then he waved a bamboo broom and swept the dead branches and leaves all over the ground to the corner of the yard and piled them up.

As the dead branches and leaves were swept away, the potholed loess surface was revealed. To Zhao Hao's surprise, in the southeast corner of the courtyard, there was actually a well the size of a basin.

Zhao Hao picked up a stone and threw it into the well, and heard a slightly dull plop.

He was so happy that he jumped out of the yard and went out of the street to buy bundles of hemp rope.

He fastened the bucket and went down into the well. Then he stepped up with his feet and alternated his hands to lift the heavy barrel.

There was only half of the water in the bucket, and the other half was dead branches and leaves.

'It's so clean...... Zhao Hao was so moved that he was about to cry, there were no plastic bags and mineral water bottles.

He poured the bucket of water into the patio, and then refilled the bucket, and so on several times, until finally a bucket of clear well water was filled.

"Hoo ......"

Zhao Hao rubbed his small waist that was about to break off with his sore arm, which was too sore to lift, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

After a short break, he couldn't wait to take a handful of well water and taste it, only to feel sweet, sweet and refreshing.

"Happy!" Zhao Hao was amazed, and washed his face happily with the well water, only to feel that the boredom of the past few days was finally gone.

Lifting his spirits, Zhao Hao continued to work hard to clean up this place, which he called home.

He sprinkled water and then scrubbed, silently calculating while busy in the house.

This is not the life I want to live. Young Master Ben came here for four hundred years, not to experience the life of the poor people in ancient times.

Even if you can't eat and clothe anymore, you must at least have clothes to stretch out your hands and food to open your mouth, right? Otherwise, I'm too sorry for myself, I'm sorry for the God who sent me over!

Zhao Hao cushioned his feet, held a broom, and rolled the cobwebs under the eaves into gray marshmallows.

If you want to turn the tables against the wind in this game, the key is to let Zhao Erye raise people in high school. For most of the six months between now and August and autumn, everything must be the top priority. ’

Having grasped the main contradiction, what to do next could not be clearer.

First of all, we need to create a good environment where my father can prepare for the exam with peace of mind and not let him be distracted by anything. You have to give him nutrition, milk, walnuts, dried fruits, sea fish, these are indispensable. ’

Zhao Hao squatted on the stool that was easy to prop up, pinched his fingers and pondered for a while, and suddenly let out a wow, crying sadly.

"What is this, who is the protagonist and who is the supporting role, who is the father and who is the son?"

While crying, he continued to mumble, "By the way, there is one more expense that cannot be saved. Zhao Erye has to make a literary meeting every three or five days, and he can't say that he has to apply for cram school, which is a big expense. ”

Because what Zhao Hao knew in advance was only the first four-book question in the Ying Tianxiang test.

Generally speaking, people say that the township examination questions and meeting examination questions of a certain year and a certain year often refer specifically to the first four-book question. Because the examiner has always used the merits of the eight shares to determine the general ranking of the candidates. But after all, there are three exams in the township examination, and in addition to this first question, there are six articles, as well as a number of arguments, judgments, and current policies...... These Zhao Hao had never been involved in it at the beginning, and now it depends on Zhao Shouzheng's own ability.

The rest of the articles other than the first topic must at least have a smooth context, and the views are not contrary to the direction of the imperial court, so that they can be reasonable.

Therefore, it is absolutely not feasible to make a car behind closed doors, and we must go out and bring in in in order to invigorate our thinking and do a good job. Even if it is not good, it is necessary to make a name for itself among the fresh candidates.

You must know that there is a life-and-death qualification exam before the township examination. That scene doesn't need to be transcribed, it is to brush your face in front of the old grandmaster!

If you don't make some prestige, who knows you?

~~

After thinking about it, Zhao Hao found that the most important thing to solve was money! Money! Money!

If he wants to make money, Zhao Hao's biggest reliance is naturally that he has more than four hundred years of knowledge than others. But limited to the reality of his poverty and whiteness, he can't do big jobs such as making glass and making soap at present. The rest of the methods either need to cultivate the market or require large investment, in short, he wants to break his head, and he has not come up with any zero-threshold, low-cost, and immediate money-making methods......

Well, let's keep our feet on the ground and go out another day and see if there's a more realistic way. ’

Zhao Hao reluctantly put away his thoughts and concentrated on cleaning.

Before he knew it, it was dark, and he cleaned up the east room of the hall where the father and son slept.

Seeing that he couldn't see the situation in the house clearly, Zhao Hao remembered that he hadn't bought oil lamps and candles. Just about to go out, he heard Zhao Shouzheng's shout outside the door.

"Son, come back for your father!"
