I Am the Crown Prince in France

Chapter 34 Secret Weapon

Lamarck looked at Dr. Larseny next to him with a somewhat unnatural expression. The latter took a step forward and said, Your Highness, leave the rest to me. Well, Mr. Lamarck will be leaving here in the next few days. .

leave?

Larseny said: Actually, Mr. Lamarck has received special funding from the French Medical Association and is planning to go to South America to conduct plant research. You know, there are many incredible plants there, and maybe new medicines can be discovered. Ah, In fact, he had resigned from his job as palace doctor.

As for the technique of purifying salicin, he has already taught me in detail. In other words, he has nothing to do in the workshop.

Lamarque coughed lightly and bowed very sincerely: Your Highness, I am really sorry.

To be honest, a large part of the reason why I was able to obtain this funding was because the Medical Association read my paper on the efficacy of salicin. Oh, and you were the first signatory of the paper. But the opportunity to go to South America is really great. It’s very rare, I think…”

Only then did Joseph remember that he had indeed received a letter from the Medical Association two days ago, saying that it was in recognition of his contribution to salicin. He didn't pay much attention to it at the time. It turned out that it was because of Lamarck's paper.

If it were before, he would definitely congratulate Lamarck and send him off to South America in person, but today after seeing the professional processing and experimental equipment in the workshop, as well as a large number of skilled workers, he had other ideas.

That was to trial-produce the legendary drug that he had been thinking about since he came to this world - penicillin.

If you have penicillin, first of all, your pneumonia can be cured. Secondly, this miracle drug has very important military uses - in the wars of the 18th century, injuries were almost fatal due to wound infection, but penicillin can cure the disease. The injured were resurrected. It is conceivable that the wounded on one side of the war continue to return to the battlefield, while the other side continues to reduce its numbers. How can the war on the latter side be fought?

He has had the idea of ​​making penicillin for a long time, but the manufacturing process and technology of this thing are very complicated. Not only does it require an extremely professional laboratory, as well as experimental and culture equipment, but also a professional experimental team to operate it, so that it can be successfully trial-produced. .

These conditions did not exist before, but now they are possible, and that is the pharmaceutical workshop in front of them.

As long as we add some experimental equipment, plus Lamarck, a biomedical expert, and the workers here, penicillin may be able to appear more than a hundred years ahead of schedule!

Therefore, Lamarck cannot be let go now.

Thinking of this, Joseph shook his head and said: No, you don't need to apologize. It was my lack of consideration. Your stage should not be limited to this small pharmaceutical factory. Those unknown areas of biomedicine are where you can show your skills.

Lamarck said with emotion: Thank you for your understanding. Please believe that I will come back at any time if there is any use for me here.

Joseph smiled slightly and said casually: I'm just a little sorry. I originally wanted you to help trial a new drug, but now it seems that I can only wait for you to come back from South America.

Hearing new medicine, Lamarck immediately became interested: Oh? I wonder what kind of medicine His Highness is talking about?

Joseph originally wanted to talk about penicillin directly, but then he thought that the preliminary preparations for making this thing would take a lot of time. It was better to take out a gadget for Lamarck to warm up first, and also to train the experimental team.

So he temporarily pressed the penicillin button and said, I've heard of a drug that can delay aging, treat miscarriage, and even make a man's penis, ahem, worse.

Lamarck searched the database in his brain and found nothing that matched this description. He was about to shake his head in denial when he suddenly remembered the magical salicin. He quickly put away his contempt and asked: This is incredible. , are you sure there really is such a thing?”

It can't be wrong, Joseph nodded, It also has a special name, called tocopherol.

The so-called tocopherol is vitamin E, which was very common in later generations but had not been refined in the 18th century.

The reason why he chose vitamin E was because it was relatively simple to extract and had a high success rate. Secondly, it can be mixed into makeup. Vitamin E will be added to almost all skin care products related to anti-aging and pigment suppression in the future.

This will be the second secret weapon used by the Paris Angel company to squeeze the wallets of ladies.

Lamarck became even more serious when he heard such a professional name: Your Highness, do you know how to get this... ah, tocopherol?

Joseph affirmed: I know a method to extract tocopherol from corn cobs, which requires the purchase of some additional equipment, such as centrifuges, sedimentation dishes, etc., oh, and the construction of a constant temperature room.

A constant temperature room? Is it a laboratory that maintains a fixed temperature? How can this be done?

In this era without air conditioning, it is really not easy to maintain a constant temperature.

Joseph thought for a while and said: Lay dense water pipes under the floor and in the walls of the room, and build a large water tank outside to connect these pipes. When the temperature needs to be raised, the water tank will be heated. If the temperature needs to be cooled, water from the Seine River will be introduced. This water wheel can just Come in handy.

Even in summer, the temperature of the river water can be kept below 20 degrees, which is enough for biological cultivation.

Lamarck was obviously interested in this substance that could delay aging, but on the other hand, it was also his long-cherished wish to go to South America to investigate plants. He stood there for a while, seemingly in a dilemma.

Joseph saw his hesitation and immediately threw out bigger bait:

Mr. Lamarck, after having the thermostatic chamber and other facilities, I actually have a more magical drug that I need your help to trial-produce.

This medicine can treat pneumonia, wound infections, puerperal fever and other diseases, and even cure terminal diseases such as the Black Death, syphilis, and sepsis.

Lamarck was stunned!

If there is such a medicine, wouldn't it be a realization of my lifelong dream - so that no one in the world will die in pain due to disease!

He was so excited that his breathing quickened: Your Highness, are you kidding?

Seeing that he had bitten the hook, Joseph smiled and said, After you make this medicine, won't you know if you try it?

By the way, I will support you with a sum of money in the future to go to South America. It will definitely be higher than what medicine will give you, and at the same time, you will have greater freedom.

Having said this, Lamarck hesitated any longer and nodded vigorously: Your Highness, I will definitely do my best to work with you to create that magical medicine!

After Joseph left Lamarck the method for refining vitamin E, he left the workshop. By the time his carriage arrived at Paris City Hall, it was already past 3 p.m.

Eman came out of the city hall, waved his hand to the fat man behind him and said, No need to trouble you, please go back.

The man had no choice but to turn around and return to the city hall angrily. Emman came to the carriage on the other side of the road and bowed to Joseph: Your Highness, I have already asked clearly. Among the properties registered for sale in Paris, there are 14 properties that meet your requirements. place.

Joseph said without hesitation: Want the best.

Your Highness, that should be the Nagelt jewelry store on the Champs Elysées.
