Struggle in the Steam Age - Chapter 673

“Oh, it turned out to be like this!” After hearing Lawrence’s serious answer to his question, the priest of the Passion Church also found out that he had indeed misunderstood him, so he quickly changed the subject.

“By the way, can you tell me what the pharmacopoeia you are talking about now? I know the pharmacopoeia, but in my impression, it should be one or several very thick books, and the price Very expensive, I am worried—”

“Oh, I don’t think I need to worry about this problem.” Lawrence said with a smile. “Because what I want to compile now is not the kind of general pharmacopoeia, but only books for the region.”

For primary doctors, this pharmacopoeia can be said to be a core skill in their medical practice. Because the prices of various basic medicines in this era are extremely expensive for ordinary people, not to mention the medicines that are in touch with the extraordinary.

Therefore, when Lawrence trains these grassroots doctors, a very important guiding ideology is to formulate a pharmacopoeia with regional characteristics for each region, so as to reduce the cost of treatment as much as possible.

After all, the future patients of these basic-level doctors are basically a group of ordinary people who have certain financial difficulties. Therefore, compared with the treatment effect, the cost of treatment is also extremely important, and even more important than the treatment effect itself. .

So during this period of training, Lawrence also started the compilation of the pharmacopoeia by asking these priests and doctor apprentices from all over the place.

In addition to recording the specific conditions of the animals, plants, and minerals on the Green Island and surrounding areas, Lawrence and several priests of the Crucifixion Church who came to help collect some traditional medicines on the island.

However, considering that these prescriptions may be just some placebos, Lawrence and the others also need to dialect these prescriptions through various methods in order to screen out the truly effective ingredients.

“For example, a kind of moss called reindeer tail by the locals has very obvious medicinal effects.” Lawrence said, taking out a handful of dried moss and said.

“These moss should have some bactericidal and anti-inflammatory ingredients, so crushing these things and covering them on the wound can promote the growth of the wound.”

“In addition, this moss also contains some ingredients that can suppress coughs, so these things can also be used as cough suppressants.”

“Before people on the island used this lichen to steam wounds or inhale to treat coughs, but according to our previous research, the effect of this kind of thing is better than the original one after using alcohol to extract the active ingredients. Steamed.”

Having said that, Lawrence took out a small bottle of golden liquid and said to the priest in front of him. “But when you use it, be careful. When you use this medicine to stop cough, you don’t drink it, but use a sprayer to spray a little medicine into your throat.”

“–What you are doing now is indeed very meaningful.” After looking at the moss on the table and the small bottle next to it, the high priest of the Passion Church in Green Island immediately told Lawrence. Said.

“Can you tell me if there is anything we can help? If there is no accident, all members of the crucifixion church on the island will put this matter first in the next period of time.”

As the suffering **** who has medical care in the priesthood, his clergy are naturally also very concerned about this aspect of technology.

Therefore, after realizing that Lawrence now has a way to greatly improve the level of medical care on the island, the clergy of this group of crucifixion churches immediately put the work of cooperating with Lawrence first.

“Of course I have some areas that need your help.” Lawrence said immediately after hearing this question from the priest.

In fact, the only reason he wants to tell this priest about this matter now is that he hopes to get the help of these church members who have been here for dozens of hundreds of years, so that he can collect the information he wants as soon as possible.

“No problem, we will try my best to help you in this regard.” After listening to Lawrence’s request, the priest nodded seriously and said.

“In fact, we have collected a lot of prescriptions in the region before. Unfortunately, we did not summarize these prescriptions due to lack of manpower, so the credible pharmacies collected so far are only single digits.”

Although the God of Suffering also has a medical priesthood, because the number of believers and personnel on the Green Island is too small, it is difficult for the priests here to get enough help.

To give the simplest example, because of the lack of divine power. The power that these priests master can only judge the overall efficacy of these prescriptions and whether they are poisonous or not, which is very crude. As for the deeper things, they can’t do anything.

This is why the priests of these suffering churches have now mastered very few prescriptions, instead of analyzing and summarizing more prescriptions.

However, the arrival of Lawrence changed the situation in this area. In addition to teaching a dozen selected students these days, he also analyzed the records taken from this church.

I want to announce that [Mimi Reading] is really good, it’s worth installing, after all, there are many books, complete books, and fast updates!

However, with the exception of a few records, most of the prescription records can only be determined after testing. Therefore, Lawrence’s overall progress is not fast, and only a few new things have been summarized.

For example, the herbal extract medicine called reindeer tail is one of the few achievements of Lawrence in the past few days, but it needs to be admitted that it takes time to search for raw materials for making medicines or to compare similar medicines.

And now with the help of the chief priest of Green Island of the Crucifixion Church, then a large amount of repetitive work can be entrusted to these trained church personnel to do it, which can save a lot of time.

Just after this meeting, a large number of people from the Crucifixion Church were involved in the analysis of various prescriptions. Then many simple and cheap prescriptions were codified into this pharmacopoeia that belonged to Green Island. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Also during this time, the first ship from Neuschauer entered the port of Green Island and brought the first batch of goods for trading to the island.

“There are not many grains and grain products in this consignment, because there is not much grain production in our islands except for your New Sauer Island.” A baron, a representative of the nobles, told Lawrence on the dock. Speaking of.

“Considering that this place itself is an island, I don’t think there will be any demand for all kinds of seafood, but we have prepared a small amount of dried meat and canned livestock to see if anyone will buy it.”

“This is right, but next time we can bring some canned tropical fish over to try the water. Because the nobles here still have a certain amount of consumption.” Lawrence nodded. “By the way, what is the biggest shipment you brought this time?”

“The biggest goods are mainly vegetable oil and sugar, which are our specialty over there. People here have ordered a lot.” The baron replied. “I guess it might be because this place is too cold, so everyone needs high-calorie foods to keep out the cold.”

“Not only that.” said Viscount Surrey, who came to the port to greet the first cargo ship at this time.

“You know, except for a few places on our island that can grow some hardy grains like rye or potatoes, most of the grains need to be imported.”

“This has also led to us that importing these grains has become a big problem on our island. Especially the incidental food security issue.”

“In addition to filling everyone with imported sugar and oil, one of the biggest benefits is that it can solve a large part of the food security problem.”
