It's not that hard to open a hospital in another world, right?

Chapter 259 Magic anesthesia, research and development begins!
"Have you heard? The parliament has made a secret medicine against the 'sea plague'."

"Yes, I've heard that too."

News spreads fastest among merchants.In less than ten days after Gretel successfully made sodium ascorbate, the news spread among the sea merchants in Nevis City:
"Yes, there is a clerk in my store. His second brother's brother-in-law is in the Northern Squadron. I heard that all the patients who were infected with the 'Plague of the Sea' in the fleet took this medicine when they came back this time. All right!"

"I heard that the Northern Fleet is about to go to sea for training, and is going to float offshore for a few months, and test this new drug by the way."

"You said, can we get this medicine?"

"I went to the White Tower to ask yesterday, and there is no exchange area."

"Maybe it's still being tested? I'll ask someone to ask..."

Gretel didn't want to deal with these things at all.After making sodium ascorbate, he calculated the yield and found that with his production process, only 100 mg of vitamin C could be extracted from 10 grams of oranges.

Assuming that a normal person consumes 100 mg of vitamin C per day, and a fleet of 1000 people floats at sea for 60 days, if he wants to make sodium ascorbate for a fleet, he needs...

Toss away 60 tons of oranges!
fall!
Such a large production volume should be left to industrial production, and he should not be allowed to make it by himself!
So, Gretel finished writing the thesis, and quickly threw it into the hands of Archmage Carlisle.Archmage Carlisle looked at the paper alone, and the key points mentioned in it that needed to be tested, shook his head and smiled bitterly:
1. There must be a more efficient way to extract the medicine for treating scurvy. It is recommended that the alchemy workshop establish a team and conduct multiple experiments.In view of the fact that this drug is easy to maintain stability in acid, and will soon change its properties in alkali, it is recommended to chop up the food and use dilute hydrochloric acid, dilute sulfuric acid, and dilute nitric acid to extract it in turn;
2. Different vegetables and fruits have different active ingredient contents.It is recommended that the team find more fruits and vegetables for calculation, not just oranges and lemons.Attached, the method of titration calculation content;
3. When this drug reacts with baking soda and soda ash, the purity and concentration need to be tested in different proportions...

At the back of the thesis, there is also a thick stack of experimental records, which is half a foot long.That attitude is obviously "I made it, come to more detailed ones, I won't play anymore".

It's really Gretel's usual style... It was the same when the Mithril was smelted last time, and the follow-up to the last phlogiston experiment was also the same. Throw out a plan, let it go, and let others experiment and perfect it...

It's actually not wrong to do research like this, but it's a bit too big.Generally speaking, magicians below the fifth level practice with their mentors. After passing the fifth level, they will independently study some valuable issues. As for leading a team, at least level 7, 8, or even 9 above.Of course, those mage towers in other places, which can be presided over by a fifth-level mage, are not among them.

But little Gretel is only level 3!
"Okay, this task, even if you have temporarily completed it." Archmage Carlisle sighed and patted the paper. "However, you won't be rewarded until enough medicine is produced and the fleet is tested and useful. - Next, have you thought about what to research? Are there any resources that need to be provided by the Horn of Thunder?"

Gretel hesitated.Penicillin is still being searched for, so far, no results have been obtained;

The blueprint of the P4 laboratory is already available, but the plan for the mage tower, the protection system and the transformation system are still entangled and have not been finalized for the time being;
In terms of public health, the relevant departments of the parliament are arguing. The main reason is that there is a sudden new expenditure. The budget has not yet been determined.

"This... I have a magic, I don't quite understand it, can I ask you for advice?"

"What magic?"

"Second-level magic of the Confusion School, [Delay Pain]."

"Oh, this magic." Archmage Carlisle immediately relaxed.This magic is not difficult, I am familiar with it!

[Delay Pain] This magic can make the subject feel no pain for a period of time. It is one of the necessary spells for magicians to go out for adventure and travel at home.When he advanced to the third-level mage back then, he learned it quickly, and he has used it so well for so many years.

By the way, there is also a corresponding version of this magic, which has always been a weapon used by priests to comfort patients—whether it hurts or not, I will take a picture of "Delaying Pain" for you, and the disease will be cured within three hours.

"Can't you learn this magic? Where is it stuck? Use it once and show me—"

Did you read the spell correctly?The casting gesture is not standard?Spell model can't be parsed?Archmage Carlisle guessed.Gretel bowed his head and chanted a few words, pointed with his hand, and a wave of magic wave was sent forward.Archmage Carlisle raised his hand to meet him, and pinched himself. As expected, he almost felt no pain.

Considering the natural magic resistance of high-level mages, it is quite good to be able to do this.

"Aren't you using it well? What's the problem?"

"What is the working principle of this magic?" Gretel quickly asked a lot of questions:

"Which part of the human body does it act on? Can the range be adjusted, such as only controlling a certain part of the body? Can it relax the muscles along the way? And..."

"Stop! - I'll take you to the Confusion Control Department to find someone!"

Gretel smiled slightly.

He has long wanted to study this magic. [Delay Pain], making patients feel no pain for a certain period of time, in Gretel's view, it is simply an anesthesia artifact.Local anesthesia, spinal anesthesia, general anesthesia, while anesthesia will not produce central nervous system depression, will not cause the patient's heart rate to drop, and will not lose spontaneous breathing——

This is much better than clinical anesthetics!

But the problem is that he filmed "Delay the Pain" to perform surgery on the rabbit. The rabbit should struggle and struggle, and should run away.To set the bones of the leg of lamb, the muscles of the lamb should be tense or tense, and if they can't be broken, they still can't.

To this, Elder Wood's answer is "increase your control."But Gretel always felt that there should be another way, a better way...

The relationship between the enchantment department and the evocation department is not good.The latter thinks that the former is too flashy and insidious; the former thinks that the latter is too violent and only fights and kills.Fortunately, Archmage Carlisle has been in the Horn of Thunder for many years, and he has some contacts anyway. After pulling him around, he quickly found a thirteenth-level enchantment-control archmage.

"Mrs. Seat, this is the child." Archmage Carlisle pulled Gretel through the door.In the reception room, a charming young woman who looked only 27 or [-] years old raised her head and smiled slightly:
"Little Gretel? I've heard of you. —Well, since you have any doubts, just study with me for a while and follow along."
