Empress: Your Majesty, please respect yourself, I don't want to be promoted

Chapter 235 Green Bag Bureau
"The future of medicine..."

Lu Chen thought for a moment, then nodded, and with Liu Ruowei's serious eyes, he slowly said:
"Miss Liu, you are right. I do think so. Whether it is the way of studying things or the way of medicine, no matter what it is, as long as it is beneficial to Daxia, I will spare no effort to implement it, just like the way of studying things."

As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Ruowei asked excitedly: "Mr. Lu, do you think that vigorously developing medicine can benefit the country and the people?"

Lu Chen said without hesitation: "Doctors are benevolent, and medical knowledge will naturally benefit all people."

After receiving such a clear response, Liu Ruowei suddenly smiled.

It seemed that just by Lu Chen's statement, her depression for many days had been wiped away.

Liu Dongyang didn't know whether to cry or laugh at this time. He was a little surprised that his daughter had such a bold idea in her mind. And now, her idea has even attracted Lu Chen, a bold young man. recognition.

He couldn't help but wonder if he was really old and couldn't keep up with the times.

Then, he suddenly stood up and cupped his hands towards Lu Chen.

"Lu Shangshu, I don't understand medicine or other things about heresy, and I can't give you any advice, so I won't stop you from talking about it. Let me take my leave first."

Hearing this, before Lu Chen said anything, Liu Ruowei's expression became a little strange for some reason.

This was not Liu Dongyang's impromptu idea.

Send her over, introduce each other, and then leave first, letting her and Lu Chen chat slowly. This was probably his original plan.

Otherwise, it would be really hard to explain why I had to bring two carriages with me when I came here.

At that time, she had a vague premonition.

To be honest, it still felt a little weird for her to be alone with a man who refused to marry her, even if the man refused her not because he disliked her, but because he was dedicated to serving his country.

However, if Lu Chen is really the kind of man who treats everything in the world equally, then... it's not impossible...

So she had no intention of rejecting her father and just stayed there silently.

In her heart, she still wanted to talk more with Lu Chen, a great husband who dared to be the first in the world.

Lu Chen got up and tried to persuade him to stay, but Liu Dongyang said that he had to go home to deal with official duties and must go home as soon as possible to avoid delaying tomorrow's important matters.

When it came to business matters, Lu Chen was reluctant to stay. After Liu Dongyang refused to see him off personally, he called his servants to see Liu Dongyang out of the Liu Mansion.

When Liu Dongyang's figure left the living room, Lu Chen sat down.

"Lord Lu."

As soon as she sat down, Liu Ruowei's gentle voice rang out.

"I wonder if you know anything about the typhoid epidemic?"

Hearing this, Lu Chen pondered for a moment.

"plague?"

Liu Ruowei nodded slightly.

"Ah."

She responded, not knowing what she thought of, and her expression was inexplicably solemn.

"Mr. Lu, please tell me that in the past few years, the little girl has been traveling around whenever she has free time. She has witnessed the raging plague with her own eyes. Everyone who suffers from the plague will die painfully in endless torture. The plague The raging area can be called a hell on earth. Countless corpses are exposed in the wilderness. There is no smoke for hundreds of miles. The number of people who can survive the epidemic is only one in ten. The government's response is to isolate the inside and outside with heavy troops, and then Lead the pure fire and burn it..."

Hearing the tragic situation Liu Ruowei described in a low voice, Lu Chen couldn't help but restrain Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, and his eyes gradually lowered.

"White bones are exposed in the wild, and there are no roosters crowing for thousands of miles..."

After the two lines of the five-character poem fell, Liu Ruowei was startled for a moment, then her face darkened, and she said in a deep voice: "Yes, that's exactly the case, so the little girl often wonders if there is a cure for this disease, but no matter the little girl No matter how the woman thinks, she reads various classics, but nothing is gained, as if there is no solution to this disease."

After saying that, she raised her head and looked at Lu Chen expectantly.

However, Lu Chen shook his head.

"Sorry, Miss Liu, I have never treated plague, nor have I been exposed to epidemics. I don't have any experience in this area."

He didn't dare to say he understood the plague, but he still knew something about it.

But it’s limited to Blue Star’s plague.

And here is the world of Gaowu. Who knows what the plague in this world is like.

"but……"

Hearing this, Liu Ruowei immediately raised her eyes, and the look of anticipation in her eyes was even greater.

"But what?"

Lu Chen said calmly: "Although all things in the world are ever-changing, they never depart from their origins. Take this charcoal for example. Burning the original charcoal will release poisonous smoke, and the smoke will contaminate the burning object because it contains impurities. As long as we find ways to By removing impurities and leaving only the coal itself, waste can be turned into treasure. This theory may also be used in medicine."

"Everything can change without departing from its original origin...Charcoal..."

Liu Ruowei murmured a few words and gradually fell into deep thought.

"How about this."

Lu Chen suddenly thought of something.

"Tiangongsi studies all things to benefit all people in the world. In addition to the most basic food, clothing, housing and transportation, what all people need is pharmacology. Tiangongsi not only needs to solve the problem of food, clothing, housing and transportation, but also solves the problem of people who are tortured by illness but unable to recover. Heaven is a problem, so it is better to open a Qingnang Bureau under the Tiangong Department and recruit doctors from all over the world to specialize in medical matters."

As soon as these words came out, Liu Ruowei looked at Lu Chen in surprise.

"Master Lu, do you really mean what you said?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "I never joke."

Liu Ruowei's charming peach blossom eyes suddenly flashed with a glimmer of light, and her pretty little face was full of excitement.

Then she stood up suddenly and bowed heavily to Lu Chen.

"This little girl is a doctor for the world. Thank you, Mr. Lu, for your love!"

Lu Chen shrugged habitually.

"Miss Liu is serious. I opened the Qingnang Bureau not for the world's doctors, nor for the medical profession itself. There is nothing worthy of their gratitude."

Hearing this, Liu Ruowei was stunned for a moment, and then took a deep look at Lu Chen.

"In any case, Mr. Lu, your move will benefit the world's doctors. After the establishment of the Qingnang Bureau, I don't know how many doctors will benefit and how many doctors will make breakthroughs in enlightenment. All doctors should keep this kindness in mind."

Lu Chen raised his hand, covered his mouth and yawned.

"Anything like that is fine, Miss Liu. Since you specialize in medicine, I will leave it to you to handle the establishment of Qingnang Bureau. You are the No. 1 director of Qingnang Bureau. The funds required for its establishment are You can apply to the deputy director general and just say it was said by me."

He has always been a person who does whatever he wants. Once he has an idea, he just executes it.

As for the risk of using the power of Si Zheng of the Tiangong Division to appoint subordinates and adding a new subsidiary yamen, there is no need to consider it.

He has never been afraid of taking responsibility or anything.

Liu Ruowei just hesitated for a moment and then agreed.

Although she is obsessed with medicine, she is also a talented woman who can be compared with the original Xiao Yun, but she has never entered an official position. Moreover, she has long heard that Lu Chen never sticks to one pattern in his employment, and even rough guys like Xuan Jiwei dare to do so. He was directly sent to serve as the acting county magistrate, which shows that he does not care whether his subordinates are from a serious family background.

Use it whenever you want, without caring about anything else.

With his current power, appointing and appointing subordinates in the Tiangong Division is as easy as eating and drinking.

After the Qingnang Bureau matter was finalized, the two chatted for a while.

Lu Chen also told Liu Ruowei all the modern medical knowledge and theories he had in his mind, such as alcohol disinfection, bacterial infection, prevention of infectious diseases, etc., regardless of whether they were useful in this world.

Liu Ruowei did not have an epiphany as soon as she listened to Lu Chen's modern theoretical methods like Su Ning did before. Instead, she dubiously wrote down Lu Chen's words, thinking about making preparations while waiting for the imperial edict to establish the Qingnang Division. , while testing whether these theories are correct.

After all, medicine is different from physics and chemistry. This is a knowledge that is closely related to life. You can't be careless. If you don't have a bit of skepticism, you will be in trouble.

Therefore, Lu Chen was not annoyed and continued to patiently explain one theory after another.

Regardless of whether Lu Chen's medical theory is useful or not, these unheard insights and speculations also provide Liu Ruowei with another way of thinking, which makes her feel like opening the door to a new world. At least after the Qingnang Bureau is established, how can it be opened? The idea of ​​​​the situation is there.

Gradually, Liu Ruowei felt like she was sitting and discussing with a knowledgeable fellow.The night became more and more desolate, and it was not until midnight that Lu Chen saw Liu Ruowei away from the Lu Mansion in the bright moonlight with a look of unfinished expression.

And this scene was also seen by some interested people who had been paying attention to the developments in the Lu Mansion.

Early the next morning, the news that Liu Dongyang's daughter Liu Ruowei, a talented girl who had already become famous in Luo Jing and had the style of Xiao Yun, stayed alone in the Lu Mansion until her son-in-law reluctantly left, spread in the official circles. opened.

"Damn!"

In the Duke of Yan's Mansion, Zheng Yue gritted his teeth and smashed a brand new table next to him with one punch.

"As expected, the old man named Liu ended up getting together with Lu Chen."

On the side, Sun Cheng, Duke of Zhao, Xia Houchang, Duke of Xing and other senior nobles also frowned.

Changsun Chengdao said: "Lu Chen's power is growing day by day, and now he has the full support of Xiao Yun, Fang Ping, and Liu Dongyang. More than [-]% of the three pavilions, six departments and nine temples have turned to Lu Chen. Your Majesty is still partial to him and supports him in all these messes. The new system has completely messed up the rules handed down from our ancestors. If this continues, will there still be room for us in this huge court?"

Xia Houchang also sighed. "Alas, if this continues, the country will no longer be a country."

Zheng Yue took a deep breath, looked at Changsun Cheng opposite, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Zhao Guo, what did Mr. Yan Ge say?"

"What else can I say?"

Changsun Cheng snorted coldly: "With the nature of that old dog, even if we take the initiative to approach him, he will not do anything until we are not completely sure, and he will not even make a clear statement. He will remain as flawless as ever."

Don't ask, just ask and wait for the weather to change.

Hearing this, Zheng Yue suddenly turned cold.

"It seems that there is no hope for Mr. Yan Ge. It is probably because of Chen Cang's incident last time that they were frightened."

Xia Houchang said: "I heard that the charcoal in Laoshizi will be mined soon. By then, the court estimates that most of the projects will no longer need to build fire arrays. The court's demand for spiritual stones and various spiritual materials has suddenly dropped so much, and as long as If Lu Chen is still here, the procurement and usage standards for all future projects from the Ministry of Industry will only be decided by that guy. Can we just watch the family business passed down from our ancestors decline in our hands?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions suddenly became uncertain.

"There can never be a person without weaknesses in this world."

Zheng Yue's fist crackled.

"No matter how powerful that guy is, there are bound to be weaknesses. Even if he himself is invulnerable, the people around him, such as his brothers, his childhood friends, and his childhood sweethearts, will never be as flawless as him. There will always be opportunities. A place to take advantage of.”

Hearing this, everyone's expression froze.

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

Lu Chen never paid much attention to the undercurrent in Luo Jingli.

Just when the hereditary nobles and nobles in the capital were about to make a move, he was looking expectantly at the stove that had just been built in the backyard of the Tiangong Si Yamen not far away.

Three days ago, the Qingnang Bureau matter was passed easily.

After all, it is a yamen under the Tiangong Division. Money does not come from the treasury, and power also comes from the Tiangong Division and the emperor. As long as Jiang Chengwan and him, the Tiangong Division Chief, nod their heads, there will naturally be no obstacles.

Even if others want to object, they have no reason.

Compared with Qingnang Bureau, which is still in the preparatory stage, Tiangong Division's current main project of new building materials has obviously attracted more attention.

Just two days later, Liyue showed at the Tiangong Department that she had led dozens or hundreds of people from Huxian County to "play havoc" with the mud and rocks she had made during her tenure as the magistrate of Huxian County. There were a few decent-looking slabs of gray mudstone.

After testing, there is no problem with the strength of the mudstone slabs.

In other words, as long as the cost problem is solved, mud and stone, which has incomparable plasticity and a wide range of raw material sources, and can continue to optimize and reduce raw material costs, can become a new material that can greatly reduce the cost of many projects of the Ministry of Industry. .

And now this test is to verify whether pebbles can be used to replace the Sky Fire Array and the mud and stone powder can be perfectly calcined.

At this time, not only Lu Chen was waiting silently in front of the stove, but also the empress, Gu Simiao, Fu Hua, Liu Dongyang, Fang Ping, Xiao Yun and other high-level empire officials were also looking closely at the stove not far away.

Obviously, they all know what the birth of this epoch-making artifact, mud and stone, means to the declining country of Daxia.

Lu Chen looked at the time, then turned to his good friend Xiao Yi and said, "It's almost time. Brother Ruoyu, please go and tell them to stop putting in the charcoal and start the furnace immediately."

Xiao Yi nodded, turned and left.

Soon, as the charcoal decreased, the blazing flames of the stove began to weaken, and then at Xiao Yi's order, the spiritual platform containing the charcoal gradually separated to both sides.

click...

The stove was opened, and several clerks from the Tiangong Department rushed in impatiently.

It didn't take long for them to come out carrying some things with excitement on their faces.

"Lord Lu!"

Several strong young officials said with excitement:
"It's done!"

But they saw that the large sacks they were carrying contained bags of gray-black powder.

It was the mud and stone powder that Liyue showed to Lu Chen before.

The two look, not to mention how similar they are, almost exactly the same.

But what those strong men were carrying was not made of the Sky Fire Array, but made of almost inexhaustible charcoal!
The cost of charcoal is not at the same level as the cost of the spiritual materials to build the Heavenly Fire Array and the cost of the spiritual stones required to operate the array.

The cost of using pebbles to burn mud and stone is extremely low.

Although they are both stones, there is no comparison between charcoal and spiritual stone.

"Lord Lu!"

Liyue was more excited than anyone else. She actually raised her hand and grabbed Lu Chen's big hand with great joy. She pulled him towards the strong man who was walking quickly not far away.

"Let's go quickly!"

Seeing this scene, the eyes of some people behind Lu Chen instantly turned cold.

But seeing Liyue's small stature, they regained their composure almost instantly.
