Chapter 88 Preparations for the manufacture of penicillin
Wang Qianqian quickly asked: "Xiaoyun, have you thought of a way? What way?"
Zhao Qian also looked at Liu Yun.
The only one who can think of a solution now is Liu Yun.
Liu Yun said: "What we lack is antibiotics. As long as we can extract antibiotics, we can save these people."
Zhao Qian frowned and asked, "Can you extract antibiotics?"
Liu Yun shook her head and said: "I don't know the details of how to extract it, but I still know the method. I have read books on this before."
"You have a really wide range of interests."
Zhao Qian couldn't help but admire him, and then asked: "What kind of antibiotics can you extract?"
Liu Yun said: "Penicillin is the first antibiotic discovered by humans."
Zhao Qian said: "Although penicillin is about to be eliminated on earth, antibiotics have never appeared in this world, and they may really be useful."
The absence of antibiotics means that the bacteria are not resistant and penicillin is completely sufficient.
However, this kind of high-ranking thing is not something he knows at all. He has no way to help and can only rely on Liu Yun himself.
Liu Yun said: "Since you agree, let's extract penicillin."
Zhao Qian asked: "How to do it?"
Liu Yun said: "Let's go find Erya first!"
Inside the stone house...
Erya was kneeling on the ground meditating, and Yanshan was waiting beside him like a bodyguard.
"Ahem!"
Erya suddenly coughed a few times and retreated from meditation.
"Erya, are you feeling better?"
Although Yanshan was very cruel to Liu Yun, in front of Erya, he was like a child.
"Better."
Erya's complexion did recover a little. With Yanshan's help, he stood up and asked, "Is that person awake?"
"Already awake."
Yanshan knew that the person Erya was talking about was Zhao Qian.
"That's good."
Erya picked up the wooden stick, and it was easy to see from his expression that he was still very tired.
Yanshan hesitated and said: "Erya, your health is already very bad, and you can no longer treat people like you did today...you don't have any disciples yet."
Not just anyone can be an Erya disciple, you must have the qualifications to become an Erya.
But it is a pity that their tribe has not seen any qualified tribesmen in these years, not even one slave has appeared, which makes their tribe not as powerful as it seems.
Because once Erya dies and no new Erya appears, they cannot awaken new Tamro.
As time goes by, their tribe will perish.
Many tribes in this land were wiped out without Erya.
"well!"
Erya sighed deeply. He knew his physical condition very well, but he said helplessly: "It's impossible not to save him. As a tribal Erya, I can't just watch my tribe members being killed by illness."
Yanshan said: "But that woman may not be able to cure this disease!"
"Is there any other way we can do it?"
Erya asked back, leaving Yanshan speechless.
"You are the chief of the tribe. You should not be too grumpy. Think more carefully when encountering problems."
"Yes, Erya."
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the stone house, and Liu Yun's voice came.
"Lord Erya, can you come out for a moment? I need your help."
"you……"
Yanshan instinctively wanted to curse, but when he noticed Erya's gaze, he could only suppress his anger and keep silent.
"Wait a mininute."
Erya stood up and walked out with a wooden stick.
As soon as they walked outside the stone house, they saw Zhao Qian, Wang Qianqian, and Liu Yun waiting at the door.
"It seems that you are fine." Erya smiled at Zhao Qian, like a kind elder.
"Lord Doshelya, my friend is fine."
Zhao Qian couldn't understand, so Liu Yun could only answer.
Erya asked: "What do you need my help with?"
Liu Yun said: "If you want to completely cure your people, you can't just rely on medicine. You must also find a way to isolate patients infected with plague from normal people. Otherwise, those who are not infected may also be infected."
If you want to treat the Black Death, you cannot rely solely on antibiotics, especially when antibiotics are far from enough.
Therefore, the first thing to do is to isolate patients from normal people to prevent new tribesmen from being infected.
Otherwise, even if penicillin is produced, it will not be enough for so many patients at the same time.
"Okay, I will arrange for someone to assist you." Erya thought for a while and said.
"Just give me the arrangements for Yu, he will understand what I mean." Liu Yun said.
"That little guy, it's okay."
A warm smile appeared on Erya's face again, as if Yu was his child.
In fact, for Erya, all the tribesmen are his children.
Liu Yun continued: "The amount of medicine I brought this time is not enough, so I still need corn and rice..."
Erya suddenly interrupted Liu Yun and asked: "What are corn and rice?"
Liu Yun frowned slightly and had an uneasy thought in her heart, "They are two kinds of plants that can be eaten."
As she spoke, she described the appearance of corn and rice in as much detail as possible.
She was really afraid that the tribe did not have these two things.
Otherwise, there would be no materials to make penicillin.
"The rice you are talking about is called grain grass here." Erya said: "Although it can be eaten, the shell tastes too bad. If you peel off the shell one by one, it would be a waste of time. Our tribe hardly eats it."
Peel the shells one by one?
Liu Yun was suddenly stunned, then laughed, thinking that the rice was not shelled one by one.
"As for the corn..."
Erya glanced at Yanshan, who took over the words: "Corn is called big stick here. It is indeed a good food, but our tribe does not have it. It is a specialty of the Fuyu tribe."
Liu Yun frowned and asked, "Is there no way to get it?"
Yanshan said: "Not really, you can buy it from their tribe, but the problem is that the Fuyu tribe is a bit far away from us."
Erya said: "You can go to the trade fair of the Behemoth Tribe."
"Trade fair?"
Liu Yun was startled when she heard this, a little confused.
Erya explained: "It is a place where you can exchange items or buy things at will. When the time comes, all the tribes in this area will go there, and we will go there too."
Liu Yun asked: "How soon will there be a trade fair?"
Erya said: "The latest time should be three days later."
"Then we will go to the trade fair in three days." After Liu Yun finished speaking, she asked curiously: "The specialty of the Fuyu tribe is corn. What is the specialty of your tribe?"
"We are called the Yanze Tribe, so our tribe is rich in salt." After Erya finished speaking, he frowned and said, "It's just that a new tribe has appeared in this area recently. They can also produce salt, so they trade with us.
The tribe has become smaller.”
"Their salt is cheaper than yours?" Liu Yun asked.
"That's not true, the main thing is that the quality is better." Erya said.
"Can you show me your salt?" Liu Yun thought for a while and asked.
When Yanshan heard Liu Yun's request, he immediately said dissatisfied: "You can just treat the disease. What do you want to do with our salt?"
Liu Yun confidently said: "If the quality of your salt is a problem, I have a way to make the quality of your salt surpass theirs."
