Chapter 122 These planting methods
This group of students from the Innovation Academy will spread it to all parts of Zhao State. Including the north, he will also send students there to teach them how to raise seedlings and transplant rice. In this way, this group of students will have the status of agricultural officials, and Emperor Qing Zhao will also send people to protect them to teach the two-season rice planting methods in various places. Including the current Youdu City. But Mu Yunxi said that the two-season rice harvest in Youdu City may not be as good as that in Zhao State, because there is not only humid air, but also bad weather? So, the harvest will definitely be slightly worse than that of Zhao State. But Emperor Qing Zhao believes that it is much more than the previous harvest. Finally, the students of the farming class set off with the farming tools made by the students of the crafting class. These are also the farming tools they used in the academy.
Mu Yunxi and her students have not stopped their research. They continue to delve into the physiological and ecological characteristics of rice, and continue to explore more efficient and environmentally friendly planting methods.
This period of collaborative research not only enabled Mu Yunxi and the students to achieve valuable academic results, but also allowed them to deeply appreciate the spirit of unity, collaboration, and innovation. Their research not only made a significant contribution to the agricultural development of Zhao State, but also provided valuable experience and inspiration for future generations of Zhao State agriculture.
Because she was always busy during the day, Yongle couldn't see her during the day, so he simply brought Xiao Yao into the business she had mentioned. Since the vegetables needed for the hot pot restaurant were always in short supply, she also suggested to Mu Yunxi that they grow two crops of vegetables. Mu Yunxi agreed, but she said she couldn't start until the first batch of students returned. Since they had no plans to recruit more students at the moment, she also needed to join the cannon team. Knowing that they were manufacturing highly lethal weapons, Emperor Qing Zhao also offered to pay for it entirely.
Another year passed in the blink of an eye, and Mu Yunxi was only seventeen. After countless trials and failures, he and the artillery team finally built their first cannon. When Husha learned that they had a way to grow two crops of rice, he expressed his willingness to become a vassal state of Zhao State, without resorting to military force. Emperor Qing Zhao was naturally delighted and readily agreed. However, Husha's climate was cold, so they could only grow one crop. Furthermore, their soil was hard, so the harvest was not as good as Zhao State's. Sweet potatoes were more suitable for this, and Emperor Qing Zhao generously told them that sweet potatoes could also be grown as seedlings. For this, Husha sent a large number of cattle and sheep as a token of gratitude.
Medicine, however, proved far more challenging than any other course. First, students had to learn to identify medicinal herbs. Students were required not only to identify them but also to understand their properties and pharmacology. Furthermore, they needed to master basic pulse diagnosis, acupuncture techniques, and the preparation of medicinal prescriptions. Only by integrating this knowledge could students achieve a preliminary understanding of medical treatment. However, the real challenge lay ahead; practical illnesses were far more complex than those described in textbooks. Therefore, Shen Yuanzheng and Baili Zhong decided to divide the students into several groups to accompany Baili Zhong and him on their free clinics, gaining experience through real-world cases. Furthermore, they incorporated the healing method of Gu worms used by Ali and his colleagues. While people were initially resistant to this method, after using it to save lives from severe poisoning, their acceptance gradually grew.
Dean Shen was still obsessed with the topic of difficult labor that Mu Yunxi had mentioned earlier, but Mu Yunxi was always busy, so he hadn't had time to discuss the issue with her. But now that the weapon had been created and transferred to the Ministry of War, knowing that Mu Yunxi had time, he went straight to Mu Yunxi without hesitation, vowing that she would explain the difficult labor problem to him and solve it. Mu Yunxi couldn't stand his pestering, so she took him to a separate courtyard behind the medical school. She said, "What I'm going to say next will be very bloody, and you may find it cruel, Dean Shen!"
Dean Shen was very confused, but he let Mu Yunxi continue, indicating that he could accept it. Mu Yunxi didn't disappoint him and said directly, "If a woman has a difficult labor and the fetus takes a long time to be born, you can simply cut open the woman's belly with a knife and take the fetus out. Then, use sutures to close the wound." Mu Yunxi said calmly.
Shen Yuanzheng's expression changed drastically. "This... How can this be possible! Wouldn't this mean the woman's life is at stake?"
Mu Yunxi sighed, "If we don't do this, both the woman and the fetus will die. This method is called a caesarean section. Although it seems cruel, in certain critical situations, it is the only option to save two lives."
Dean Shen frowned, lost in thought. He knew what Mu Yunxi said was true, but this method was too radical for people today. "This matter is of great importance. Let me think it over carefully."
"Take your time to think about it, and come back to me when you've made up your mind!" Mu Yunxi said, and was about to turn and leave. Dean Shen saw her leaving and hurriedly stopped her: "You brought me here and you're leaving without telling me why?"
"I'll take you in to see it after you've made up your mind!" Mu Yunxi said with a smile.
"I don't need to think about it anymore. Let's go in and take a look!" As he said this, he walked towards the courtyard by himself.
Mu Yunxi felt a little amused, but she followed him anyway. She opened the door and invited Shen Yuanzheng in, saying as they walked in, "Actually, before performing a cesarean section, a lot of preparation needs to be done. If you do it straight away, the most likely outcome is that only the baby will survive. So, Shen Yuanzheng, if you want to conduct some research, I suggest you experiment on animals first."
"Of course, human life should not be treated lightly!" Shen Yuanzheng said seriously.
Mu Yunxi opened one of the rooms in the yard and said, "This is called an operating room. The operating room must ensure that the environment is clean and sterile. All instruments and equipment must be strictly sterilized to prevent infection. This is to prevent the wound from festering or other problems."
Dean Shen and she entered the operating room together. Mu Yunxi continued, "Because there are no other surgical issues besides suturing, this place has not been cleaned thoroughly yet. When it is needed, I will have someone wipe it down and disinfect it with strong alcohol regularly."
Dean Shen was listening while looking at the tools in the operating room. Mu Yunxi followed him and explained, "This is called a scalpel, and this is called a hemostat. These tools must be sharp and intact to ensure a smooth operation. Also, everything here needs to be sterilized."
"Isn't that a waste of wine?" Shen Yuanzheng was also a man who valued food. Mu Yunxi said, "High temperatures can also be used for disinfection, such as boiling water, but wiping is faster."
"Then from now on, you can boil it in water when you are not busy, and wipe it when you are busy." Shen Yuanzheng suggested.
