Chapter 207 Charcoal Poison Experiment
The court decided to implement the production and construction corps on a trial basis, and the doctors immediately took action, and the doctors in charge of agricultural medicine immediately assembled and rushed to Weizhou.

Among the doctors, Kaifeng county lieutenant Fan Zhengping in military uniform was particularly conspicuous.

Ever since Fan Chunli became the prefect of Kaifeng, Kaifeng Lieutenant Fan Zhengping's position was extremely embarrassing. Fan Chunli and Fan Zhengping were uncles and nephews. According to the court's regulations, Fan Zhengping had to avoid suspicion.

It happened that the doctors proposed to set up a production and construction corps, and Fan Zheng recommended Fan Zhengping to be responsible for this matter. If it is successful in the future, it will be a great achievement.

"Third brother! According to the news from Princess Yelu, the wormwood seeds like bitter cold places, and they will germinate as soon as the weather turns warm! The wormwood farm must reclaim the wasteland within the first month." Fan Zheng ordered.

Fan Zhengping was the third in the third generation of the Fan family, and Fan Zhengping usually called him the third brother.

"Brother Zheng, don't worry! Third brother understands." Fan Zhengping said solemnly.

He had received advice from his father Fan Chunren before, and with Fan Chunren's eyes, he could naturally see the benefits of the Construction Corps at a glance, and Fan Zhengping was in charge of the pilot project of the Construction Corps, and his future glory was just around the corner.

"The Artemisia wormwood seeds obtained by Da Song are only [-] catties, which is not enough to plant [-] mu of wasteland. Other wasteland can be reclaimed to grow food as a pilot for the Production and Construction Corps." Fan Zheng pointed out.

Fan Zhengping nodded, and said with some concern: "The Production and Construction Corps was created by Brother Zheng, how should it operate! Please give me some pointers."

Fan Zheng said word by word: "Fan's Yizhuang!"

Fan Zhengping's eyes suddenly lit up!Fan's Yizhuang is the pride of the Fan family, and it is the greatest painstaking effort of grandfather Fan Zhongyan in his later years. The existence of Fan's Yizhuang can ensure that the Fan clan will not be troubled by life and concentrate on their studies. As a child of the Fan family, he naturally knows that Fan The operation mode of Shiyizhuang.

The biggest difficulty in solving the problem of redundant soldiers is to provide a livelihood for the eliminated soldiers. If the operation mode of Fan’s Yizhuang is combined with the land reclaimed by the General Construction Corps to lease to the soldiers, the output of the land will be responsible for supporting the soldiers. , The rent of the land of Fanjia Yizhuang supports the Fan family, and the rent of the Construction Corps is responsible for handing over to the court. As for the output of Ascariasis, doctors will buy it at a high price.

"Third brother, please remember that only when multiple parties benefit can the construction of the Corps be successful." Fan Zheng urged.

"Third brother understands!" Fan Zhengping said solemnly.

At the moment, Fan Zhengping and his family of doctors rushed directly to Weizhou, even turning a blind eye to the upcoming Spring Festival, as the sowing of Artemisia wormwood was imminent.They must race against time to open up the Ascaris farm.

Sending away the people who opened the barren wormwood farm, a snowflake in Bianjing quietly fell on Fan Zheng's palm.

"Winter is here!" Fan Zhengyang said.

For doctors, winter is the most difficult, because winter is a period of high incidence of diseases.

In traditional medicine, it is believed that miscellaneous poisons grow towards warmth. This statement is not false. The severe cold in winter can indeed affect the reproduction of microorganisms. However, there is another biggest disadvantage in winter, that is, the severe cold in winter, many people gather indoors for a long time , with little ventilation, many diseases and plagues broke out in winter.

Inside the medical office!

Fan Zheng once again convened a group of doctors to explain the winter infectious diseases.

"Order Fan Sanming to prepare more Chinese patent medicines for frequent diseases in winter."

"The three major hospitals issued a notice to prepare for winter infectious diseases in advance."

"Fan will specifically ask for the help of the University of Su, publish the mansion newspaper, ask the people to wash their hands frequently, open windows frequently to ventilate, and pay attention to cold protection."

Following Fan Zheng's order, all the doctors nodded one after another. Winter is indeed a season of frequent occurrence of various diseases. The doctors' preparation and publicity in advance are enough to benefit many people.

"Besides, there is another disease in winter that has taken countless lives and has no cure so far?" Fan Zheng said solemnly.

Qian Yi said with a solemn face, "I don't know what kind of disease Master Fan said?"

"Charcoal poison?" Fan Zheng said solemnly.

"Charcoal poison!"

Immediately, all the doctors gasped.

Charcoal poisoning is the most frequent poisoning incident in winter. It is very cold in winter and there are no heating tools in this era. Many families often burn charcoal for heating, and charcoal poisoning incidents often occur.

Whenever charcoal poisoning occurs, a few members of the family will not be spared, it is almost a massacre.

Fan Zhenglang said in a loud voice: "Fan called everyone here today. In addition to preventing and warning the people all over the world about the high incidence of diseases in winter, there is another matter to inform. A few days ago, if the relationship between the two was written for a long time, how could it be in the morning and evening? In the evening, Qin Guan, University scholar Qin, was poisoned by charcoal, and he was lucky enough to save his life."

After Qin Guan survived by chance, he wrote down the poisoning process himself: "The cold power has replaced, the heat has recovered, the coal poisoning has been completed, the disaster has returned to the family, and the restlessness has been thirsty, and the bed has been revived." '

It has already spread in Kaifeng City, even Qin Guan has the experience of being poisoned by charcoal, let alone ordinary people.

Yang Jie also sighed and said: "Charcoal poisoning is very harmful. Doctors have long recorded about charcoal poisoning. Put a basin of water in the room and let the windows have ventilation. Although the coal smells bad, it can't be harmful. Drinking cold water can solve it. Or turnips Squeeze the juice and pour it, move the nose to the wind and wake up."

Fan Zheng nodded and said: "That being said, the cold wind howls in winter, and the windows have ventilation. What's the difference between burning coal and not burning coal? There will always be people who yearn for that warmth, and end up ruining their lives in vain."

Although this method can prevent charcoal poisoning, charcoal poisoning still emerges endlessly every year in the Song Dynasty.

All the doctors nodded one after another. As doctors, they have seen too many charcoal poisoning tragedies with their own eyes.

Zhang Youniang said helplessly: "Charcoal poison is colorless and tasteless, once poisoned it is usually in sleep, it is impossible to prevent it.

Fan Zheng looked around and said loudly: "Charcoal poisoning is very harmful. This is the responsibility of doctors. Today we doctors must understand how charcoal poisoning is produced, how to prevent charcoal poisoning, and how to treat it after poisoning? In order to relieve the danger of the people in the world. "

At that moment, Fan Zheng stretched out his hand to pat it, and several officials from the Imperial Medical Office brought a charcoal basin to the front of the doctors.

"Today, I will test the poison with myself. Senior Zhang and Mr. Qian are already old, please leave the room for a while, and let Fan and Brother Yang test the poison themselves!" Fan Zheng said.

Yang Jie also nodded solemnly. Many survivors of charcoal poisoning are mostly strong adults, and many old, weak, sick and disabled cannot be rescued.

But Qian Yi said without any fear: "Fan Taicheng must have underestimated Qian, you wait for a young man to have the courage to test the poison himself, don't I have the old man? I'd better leave Junior Sister Zhang first!"

Zhang Youniang snorted coldly and said: "Female doctors never fall behind. Besides, charcoal poisoning is the most harmful in sleep. After I wake up, I am not afraid of charcoal poisoning at all. There is no sequelae after ventilation."

As doctors, they naturally know the reaction of charcoal poisoning, and they are not afraid of charcoal poisoning in their hearts.

Seeing that the two of them were unwilling to go out, Fan Zheng had no choice but to order the little official: "After you go out, close the doors and windows, stay outside, and open the door every quarter of an hour to check. If there is any sign of poisoning, I will notify you later."

"Yes!"

The little official had no choice but to accept the order, and immediately closed the doors and windows, standing nervously outside the door, paying attention to the movement in the room.

You must know that the room is half of the doctor's family. If there is a mistake, the great prosperity of the doctor's family may be completely terminated.

After the clerk left, the whole room fell silent, and all the doctors focused on the charcoal basin in front of them.

However, soon, the raging charcoal fire made the room extremely warm, but the doctors did not have the slightest reaction to the charcoal poisoning. The little official came in several times in a row, and closed the door again in a daze.

"Could it be that charcoal poisoning only happens in sleep." An imperial doctor asked doubtfully.

"No!" Qian Yi shook his head and said, "There are not a few people who are poisoned when they are awake, and of course there are more people who are poisoned by charcoal at night."

Fan Zhengfan asked: "Have you ever thought about why charcoal poisoning occurs most often in the middle of the night!"

"Because you come in and out during the day, will the room be ventilated?"

"Because people are awake during the day, they can give an early warning when encountering charcoal poisoning."

..............................

All the doctors replied one after another.

Fan Zheng nodded and said: "These are just one of the reasons. Please see, the pot of charcoal fire in front of you is indeed burning very well! However, it simply cannot last overnight."

Qian Yi was thoughtful, the charcoal fire in the charcoal basin in front of him was burning very vigorously, and it might burn out in half an hour.

Fan Zheng pointed out: "If the charcoal fire burns out in the first half of the night, how should we spend the cold second half of the night?"

"Then get up in the middle of the night and add charcoal!" An imperial doctor replied.

Qian Yi shook his head and said: "In the middle of the night, people are still asleep, so getting up to add charcoal is extremely troublesome, and it costs a lot to burn charcoal all night, many people simply cannot afford such high charcoal money."

Zhang Youniang continued: "So in order to keep the room warm overnight and save charcoal money, many people will cover the charcoal with plant ash. In this way, the coal can continue to burn overnight. Save charcoal money."

"As everyone knows, this is the real reason that caused the charcoal poisoning and ultimately the tragedy." Yang Jie said with a painful expression.

At this moment, everyone finally understands where charcoal poisoning comes from. Fully burned coal and charcoal will not cause charcoal poisoning, but charcoal covered with plant ash and prolonged burning will cause people to be poisoned.

"Spread with plant ash!"

Fan Zhengzheng ordered that the little official waiting at the door immediately took the order, and immediately found plant ash and threw it on the charcoal basin.

quickly,

A group of doctors already had a dizzy reaction, and all the doctors looked at each other, and immediately understood that the charcoal poison had been activated and had an effect.

"Dizziness!"

In the face of charcoal poisoning, the doctors did not panic and immediately recorded the symptoms of charcoal poisoning.

"Headache, tinnitus, vertigo, nausea, vomiting, weakness in limbs."

Soon, doctors one by one recorded the symptoms of charcoal poisoning. These were only mild symptoms, and everyone was still conscious.

"Flushing, sweating, unsteady gait, confusion, lethargy."

Soon, the charcoal reaction became more and more intense.

Zhang Youniang and Qian Yi, who were already old, couldn't hold on any longer, and they left the room first.

Soon, the imperial physicians couldn't stand the symptoms of charcoal poisoning one by one, and left the room.

But Fan Zheng and Yang Jie, relying on their strong bodies, lasted until the end, and then asked the little official to open the window. With the fresh air pouring in, Fan Zheng and Yang Jie gulped down the radish juice prepared in advance. This gradually eased.

"This is charcoal poison!"

The windows were wide open, fresh air flowed, and the doctors gathered around the small charcoal basin again, in disbelief.

It was the small charcoal basin in front of me that almost wiped out the entire army of medical elites just now, and it was also charcoal. The charcoal that burns a lot will not be poisoned, but the charcoal covered with plant ash will produce charcoal poisoning.

"No wonder charcoal poison is hard to prevent?" Yang Jie sighed.

"This is the meaning of medical experiments. If there are medical problems in the future, doctors should not be afraid of difficulties. They need to conduct medical experiments and try to solve them. This is the iron law of doctors." Fan Zheng said solemnly.

"I'll obey!"

All the doctors nodded.At this moment, they have personally experienced the oath of charcoal poisoning, and finally have a clearer and more intuitive understanding of the doctor's experiment.

This method of exploring medical skills will have an immeasurable effect on the future of doctors.

"Since doctors have solved the cause of charcoal poisoning, they should immediately announce it to the world so that the people of the world will not be harmed by charcoal poisoning." Qian Yi said impatiently.

Fan Zheng shook his head and said, "Master Qian, don't worry. Although we have solved the cause of charcoal poisoning, the people of the world still need to keep warm, and they still burn charcoal. In order not to get up in the middle of the night to change charcoal or save charcoal money, they still have to pay for it." It will be covered with plant ash, and the tragedy of folk charcoal poisoning will not be reduced because doctors crack charcoal poisoning."

Not to mention the Song Dynasty, it is the era of information explosion in later generations, because the tragedy of coal poisoning has not been spared.

"Medicine never kills!"

An imperial physician shook his head and sighed, their physicians had already found out the source of the charcoal poison and announced it to the world, if someone did not listen to the advice and a charcoal poisoning incident occurred, what would their doctors do?
The other imperial physicians also nodded.

Fan Zheng looked around, and said loudly: "This is another reason why Fan convened you all. If doctors want to be prosperous, they must change their thinking about medicine and medicine."

"What do you mean by Fan Taicheng's words? The common people light charcoal fires to keep warm in the middle of the night, but we and the doctors can still persuade them one by one." Qian Yi shook his head and said.

Fan Zheng shook his head and said: "Of course we can't do this, but the people have heating needs, and charcoal is at risk of being poisoned. , wouldn’t it be able to solve the harm of charcoal poisoning.”

Yang Jie suddenly realized: "You mean to apply medical skills to charcoal stoves."

Fan Zheng nodded and said: "That's right, the common people need to keep warm, and doctors want to avoid charcoal poisoning, and the craftsmen who can do this are none other than artisans. Come, go and invite Mo Yue, the military supervisor!"

Soon, Mo Yue hurried over.

After hearing Fan Zheng's request, Mo Yue said disapprovingly: "This matter is simple, just make the charcoal stove into a stove that can be closed, and then add an auxiliary iron pipe leading to the outside of the house, so that the charcoal poison can be discharged outside the house." , the iron pipe dissipates heat, making the room warmer.”

At that moment, Mo Yue summoned the blacksmiths, and according to Fan Zheng's request, a furnace of future generations appeared in front of the doctors. As the charcoal was ignited again, the whole room became warm again.
Close the intake door, leaving only a small gap, and soon, the whole room was once again filled with charcoal poison, and each poisoned reaction attacked one after another.

"Insert the iron pipe! Let the charcoal poison out." Fan Zheng immediately opened the window for ventilation and ordered.

As the iron pipe leading to the outside fits with the stove, the whole room is sealed again.

One quarter of an hour,

half an hour,

an hour!
This time, there was no charcoal reaction in the whole room.

"Success?"

The doctors couldn't believe it.

"It's not enough now, continue to experiment." Fan Zheng ordered.

It wasn't until the charcoal stove burned for a day and a night, and the doctors in the room were still healthy as before, that the doctors were convinced that they had not only found the source of charcoal poisoning, but also solved the method of keeping warm and avoiding charcoal poisoning for the people of the world.
