The course of history is sometimes pushed forward in a particularly absurd way.

For example, the overall progress of society is often driven by the dead. In many cases, it is propelled by the death of the wrong opponent of old age or the death of various accidents. Subsequently, as the new generation became the recognition of new technologies and new thinking, outdated old antiques were swept into the garbage heap of history. And so on, spiraling.

This time, Xu Xinxue had a hunch that he would become such a person.

After Zhu Cihong finished speaking, one person shouted to receive the order.

"Yes!" Ning Wei took the order and left.

Zhu Cihong couldn't help but sigh a little about his layout.

The microscope is hailed as the greatest invention of the 20th century, but in fact the optical microscope was invented much earlier. It was invented in the 16th century, in 1590, by Jensen and his sons in the Netherlands. Although many later generations thought that they had invented a magnifying instrument made of just two lenses, it was undoubtedly a great beginning.

By 1611, Kepler had completed the compound microscope. In another eleven years, Robert Hooke will be able to complete the production of cell nouns. Of course, the most shining was Leeuwenhoek's report on protozoology in 1674, when the cloth merchant's amateur interest lit up the world, allowing mankind to enter into the study of the microcosm and thus discover bacteria.

As the emperor of the Ming Empire, Zhu Cihong began to lay out the climbing of the science and technology tree two years ago, relying on the abundant financial resources of the successive wars and the name of the imperial government, Zhu Cihong has collected countless skilled craftsmen.

Among them, because of Zhu Cihong's abundant military orders, after building more than 100 pairs of telescopes, after seven failures, Master Li Kou of the craftsman compound finally completed the production of the first pair of microscopes.

At this time, Wu Youxing coughed lightly: "Actually, more important than identifying the symptoms is the route of infection. With this in mind, we can cut off the source of infection. In this way, the initial control of the plague was completed, and if the spread of the plague could not be curbed, the most basic control of the plague could not be discussed. Comparatively speaking, patients who are already sick are actually more difficult to treat. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as terminally ill. Instead of investing more manpower and material resources into patients, it is better to use ******** energy on how to prevent and how to reduce the number of new patients. ”

Hu Bo nodded slowly: "At present, what supports the smooth management of the plague in Jingshi is more the horror of the people for infection. Instead of...... Treatment of plague patients who are almost incurable. Most people are already ...... about the plague after infection Almost gave up. ”

There is another sentence that Hu Bo didn't say, even if it is cured, I don't know how terrible the sequelae are.

Hearing Wu Youxing mention this, Xu Xinxue agreed, but when he thought about it slightly, it was a little strange.

Xu Xinxue said: "Isn't what Mr. Ke said about poisonous gas already fair?" On "On the Plague", every word is fine. In particular, rodent infestation is due to human disease infection, which is even more incisive. ”

Cui Wenpu, the doctor of the Tai Hospital, also opened his mouth at this moment, and this Tai Doctor with good facial features and a Confucian temperament said: "Ah." If we understand the cause of the epidemic, we can better solve the plague. The crux of the matter should be here! ”

Hu Bo coughed lightly, and suddenly wanted to laugh. He understood, looked at the admiration of many doctors in Beijing for Wu Youke, and looked at the admiration of many imperial doctors in Tai Hospital for Wu Youke, and slowly shook his head.

"Not only that, but the previous inference that the transmission route of the plague was rats was actually basically determined." Wu Youxing looked at this old gentleman, very respectful and embarrassed. He arched his hand towards Xu Xinxue and the Tai Hospital, pointed at Zhu Cihong and said, "But these are actually all diagnoses from the Holy Lord in Linqing. The control of the plague was completed through the capture of rats and the cleaning of the whole population to eliminate fleas. Thus, the treatment of plague was established. This is also the swear of the saint, not only insisting on vigorously investing in governance, but also firmly believing in the foundation of governance victory. ”

"What?" Xu Xinxue was taken aback.

When the famous doctors in Jingshi heard this, they all looked at Wu Youke as if they had discovered a new continent. They didn't dare to look at Zhu Cihong, but they couldn't believe that an obvious layman would actually help Wu Youke and others who went deep into the disease to deal with the plague.

Hu Bo added: "The release of "Treatise on the Plague" also depends on the help of Hengxin Printing Workshop. ”

Some people don't understand what Hengxin Printing Workshop is, but there are still many people who know. As long as the word Hengxin is mentioned, everyone will quietly understand. This is Zhu Cihong's private property, and the person currently in charge of this behemoth is Zhu Cihong's fiancée, that is, the future Empress of the Empire. It's just that now the affairs are busy, and the future queen is so obsessed with the outstanding achievements of business that she has not yet been married.

Hengxin Printing Workshop is nothing more than an insignificant supply ship in Hengxin's commercial aircraft carrier. But it is such a small boat, and it can also issue 10,000 copies of the plague theory revised by Zhu Cihong, to the point that every county medical officer has a copy.

The number of copies was huge, and soon someone in the house came up with "The Plague Treatise". The first to find out was Kong Luoling, the official doctor of the army hospital who said excitedly: "Look, there are two authors here." In addition to Mr. Youke, there is also a gentleman named Qin Yiming! ”

Zhu Cihong's legendary cause of leaving the palace incognito has become a legendary deed that is almost known to passers-by, no matter what the praise and disapproval are, at least Qin Xia and Qin Yiming are understood by everyone.

"It's just a superficial discovery." Zhu Cihong's dark color was faint, but everyone couldn't figure out the depth, and the atmosphere of the scene became very embarrassing.

Those who swore that Zhu Cihong was a layman found that the doubts they didn't understand became clown-like thoughts.

In the corner, Kong Luoling looked at Doctor Zhou, who was blushing beside him, snorted lightly, clenched his pink fists, and his eyes sparkled on his fair and smooth face: "It's not a superficial discovery!" If it hadn't been for the discovery that it was the rats that harmed people, I don't know how many people would have died. At the beginning, after Mr. Wu Youke came, he also recognized that it was only the holy statement of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at that time! ”

The scene was slightly chaotic, and the voices of discussion were spoken one after another.

But Wu Youxing actually endorsed Zhu Cihong, and his work on the plague theory was revised by Zhu Cihong, and no one knows what the significance is. Xu Xinxue had a long mouth and couldn't say a word. At this moment, his heart was like turning upside down, and he was very emotional.

This cognitive subversion was too drastic for him.

At this moment, there was a sound of heavy footsteps.

Ning Wei and a few sturdy sergeants came in carrying a small sedan chair.

Zhu Cihong has never liked to carry a sedan chair, he likes to ride a horse. However, horseback riding was not suitable for security for the emperor, so he retreated to the next best thing and took a carriage. There are nine four-wheeled steel carriages in exactly the same three directions.

It's just that this time the carriage was not used, and the sedan chair that Zhu Cihong originally looked down on played a big role.

The microscope was classified as fragile by Zhu Cihong, and if this kind of thing fell, it would never be able to make a second wave. The sedan chair became a suitable choice. In this way, the two microscopes were lightly carried into the Medicine King Hall by several military personnel.

Zhu Cihong stood up and took the microscope to examine it himself.

As for the rest of the people, they were even more curious, staring at this strange-looking thing carefully, and the sound of discussion could not be stopped like a cathartic flood.

No one wanted to block it, Zhu Cihong didn't care, he skillfully checked the microscope.

This is a basic version of the optical microscope, and the structure is infinitely close to the microscope that Zhu Cihong saw in his later middle school.

This optical microscope consists of a stage, a concentrating illumination system, an objective lens, an eyepiece, and a focusing mechanism. The function of the stage is to place the object to be observed, and the focusing knob is used to drive the focusing mechanism to complete the adjustment of the stage. The spotlight lighting system consists of a spotlight and a light source, and the role of the spotlight allows more light to be concentrated on the part being observed. The objective lens is relatively close to the stage and is the first stage of magnification. The eyepiece is a secondary magnifying lens that is close to the human eye.

The precision optical instruments are fascinating, and Zhu Cihong has a sense of accomplishment in opening history with his own hands. Most people who invent something that changes the world don't understand the significance of their actions on the spot, and even if some people guess that their actions will be important, they will never imagine what kind of epoch-making changes they will bring.

Zhu Cihong is different, he can clearly feel that under the personal promotion of this emperor, a new era has come.

Microscopes in all fields of modern science and technology and production are very important observation tools. Biology, medicine, agriculture, animal husbandry, geology, minerals, and many other industrial fields are all subject to rapid chemical changes due to the use of microscopes. It can be said that with the microscope, these fields can make progress on the scale of decades of modern technology in the space of a year.

Zhu Cihong copied Leeuwenhoek's microscope. The first thing that was developed was a very small lens with a large curvature of less than 1 mm, and the object was placed on the tip of the needle, which could be adjusted to focus with two spirals. The microscope must be closely pressed against the eye to observe the light. Although it is extremely simple, it has a magnification of 240~280 times, and can resolve fine structures as small as 1/700mm.

With Zhu Cihong's operation, more than two hundred and fifty times magnification began to appear. Among the samples, plague bacillus in the shape of a cylindrical insect began to appear in front of Zhu Cihong's eyes.

"In this section of the patient's lungs, the presence of Yersinia pestis was present. Ladies and gentlemen, you can boldly observe and watch the world below. Zhu Cihong said softly, proudly looking at the group of stunned ancient people in the Medicine King Palace.

With the product of epoch-making change, Zhu Cihong has reason to be proud of the innovation he has brought.

And Xu Xinxue, who was allowed to control the microscope, was even more excited, completely forgetting the previous dispute. As a healer, he understands all too well how important it is to truly observe the microscopic truth of this world.

To put it in a cheesy way, such an artifact is enough for the healer to truly understand the truth about the poison and develop more medicines.

There is no doubt that this kind of merit is more than one level higher than simply curing diseases and saving people.

Originally, it would have been as difficult for people to understand how important a microscope was if they had been seen in a different environment.

But now, the plague is rampant, and the world is watching. At this time, there is an artifact that can reveal the microscopic truth of the plague, who can not be amazed? Who doesn't think about it?

Li Zhongzi looked at the microscope and showed it again, and couldn't help but sigh: "This thing is really an artifact given by God." With such a sharp weapon, you can observe the subtleties of a thousand times and probe the real and the fake. The poisonous gas mentioned has finally been realized. It's even more ...... Let me wait to truly explore the mysteries of the human body. I understand that there is still a 'cell' thing that the Holy God said. It can be said that from now on, the theory of doctors will open a new page! ”

"Old man......" Xu Xinxue trembled and finished debugging, saw the plague bacillus clearly visible in the lens, and sighed for a long time, and then sighed deeply: "It's really old." So much so that they will be prejudiced from the beginning. With this artifact, our past understanding is indeed going to be turned upside down. And what the Holy One said is really insightful. ”

Shuntianfu Yin Zhou Baifa looked at this scene in astonishment, and quietly, like Xu Xinxue, all the cognitions in his heart were renovated.

is completely different from Emperor Chongzhen, this new emperor is really swearing, professional and insightful.

As the governor of the Gyeonggi region, Zhou Baifa suddenly felt that a mountain on his shoulders had a way to be solved. He looked at Zhu Cihong and said excitedly: "Holy Lord, I will definitely try my best to cooperate with the army hospital to complete the plague control!" ”

Xu Xinxue sighed and said: "Lai Shengshang's Shengming, I, the Chinese medicine practitioner in Beijing, are willing to do our best for the Shengshang, and cure the plague!" ”

Seeing this, Zhu Cihong looked around at everyone and said with a smile: "Haha, not long ago, Mr. Ke wrote that there are seven difficulties in the management of the plague. The first difficulty is that there is no quality of medicine, the second is low confidence, the third difficulty is that there is no storage of medicines, the fourth difficulty is that there is nowhere to have financial resources, the fifth difficulty is that the isolation measures are not available, the sixth difficulty is the difficulty of cutting off transportation, and the seventh difficulty is the difficulty of burning corpses and poisons. Today, all of you are united, and I can finally go all out to fight the plague! All of them, listen to my orders! ”

"First, count the plague situation in each square and street, and divide the isolation area. Establish a governance team to closely monitor the spread trend. ”

"Second, the household department has already sent silver two, but up and down Beijing, it is necessary to be equipped with cotton yarn masks and comprehensively trained to use them."

"Thirdly, I have ordered the civil and military officials of each division to send personnel to watch the burning of the corpse. The poisons used by the sick are all incinerate. Whoever dares to block his privacy, I will let him know the consequences! ”

"Fourth, complete isolation. The police stations of each city, Shuntianfu, Daxing Wanping County, and the Terracotta Division are on standby at any time. Those who dare to disobey the quarantine will be arrested! ”

"Fifth ......"

With Zhu Cihong's sonorous and powerful orders, everyone was encouraged. They understood that there was really hope that the plague would be extinguished.

"Let's do our best to extinguish the plague!" Hu Bo, Wu Youke, Li Zhongzi, Xu Xinxue, Zhou Baifa and everyone present shouted in unison. (To be continued.) )
