The Lord is Addicted in Infrastructure

After Fei Lifu Geer walked up to the booth, he looked around unconsciously...then his ears turned red and his eyes drifted away.

He coughed dryly: "I, let me explain the results of my alchemy research..."

A fellow from the alchemy school of Felif Keel frowned upon hearing this, and wondered to the person next to him: "Is Felif nervous?"

"Why does he look awkward and stutter?"

The man next to him also looked inexplicable and shook his head and said, "He was fine before he came to the auction house... Could it be that he was nervous after going up?!"

This person thought about it and found it funny again.

—Because from the character of Felif Gere, this shouldn’t happen.

Xia Zoe listened intently in the seat.

He listened to Felif Gere explain the alchemy theory he studied-he believed that everything in the world is composed of four elements, namely air, water, fire, and earth.

The human body has four basic characteristics: dryness, dampness, coldness, and heat.

Among them, each element is combined by two of these four characteristics, for example, fire is dry and hot, air is damp and hot, etc.

Everything is composed of these four elements, which means that matter can be transformed into each other.

-For example, ordinary metals can be turned into gold coins.

It can't now, just because people haven't found and controlled the path and method of conversion between substances for the time being.

The four elements are interrelated with the four characteristics of the human body.

-People's body diseases are nothing more than an imbalance of characteristics. Which end has reduced characteristics and which end has increased characteristics will cause varying degrees of disease.

Metal is the thing that best reveals elements and characteristics.

Therefore, studying the conversion and change between metals can not only turn stones into gold, but also hopefully develop philosopher stones that can cure all diseases—that is, use "conversion" to achieve the balance of internal characteristics.

Felif Gere talked freely at the booth.

Xia Zuoyi asked quickly: "So, what are your research results? Have you already developed metals that can treat people's diseases?"

An alchemist of the same school as Felif Gere whispered instantly: "Oh, Felif will definitely be angry..."

He is very aware of this man's bad temper.

Especially, Fei Lifu once expressed his suspicion and rejection of the Desinian lord.

Fei Lifu resisted the lord—the alchemist thought.

Who knew that when he raised his head to take a look at Felifu's face, he heard Felifu stammering at the booth: "This, this is not yet... That is the final research result."

"At present, it is difficult to achieve..."

"But my related alchemy research has already yielded preliminary results."

Xia Zoe: "What is it?"

Felifu's face became serious, and he solemnly said, "It's mercury that measures temperature."

Xia Zoe raised her eyebrows, slightly surprised.

But for a while, except for the alchemy school, which is also a school of metal research, the others began to discuss and talk to each other quietly.

Even Chebman Norton talked to his apprentice Beckin.

It is not difficult for Xia Zoe to understand what they are discussing.

After all, this matter has something to do with him.

Mercury, commonly known as mercury, is a naturally occurring element.

However, mercury has a very small distribution and is considered a rare metal. It is mostly found in air, water or soil. It is close to other metals and requires some refinement to obtain complete mercury.

The most important thing is that in the history of alchemy in the real Middle Ages, mercury, sulfur, and salt are collectively called the three sacred elements of alchemy, which shows the importance of mercury.

Later, in the history of the European Middle Ages, mercury played a major role in important drug treatments.

-For example, a large amount of mercury is added to medicines, but it does not care about the rationality, which leads to frequent diseases.

Or use calomel as a strong and effective laxative, which can be used to remove a large amount of black feces in a short while by oral administration...

This is actually a reaction to mercury poisoning.

There are countless cases like this.

In the Middle Ages, there were still people who believed that mercury could treat mental illness.

The doctor will let the patient take mercury medicine, and directly consume the medicine containing mercury to fight against the frequent occurrence of mental illness. In the end, only one breath exists to toss the patient.

-Patients no longer open their mouths to speak, because of tooth loss, facial sores, and they no longer move at will, because of weakness...

This kind of performance is considered by doctors to be a recovery from a mental illness...

In particular, alchemists believe that mercury is the spirit of alchemy and the main element that makes up all metallic properties.

As a result, mercury has been used extensively and extensively as a pharmaceutical ingredient, and the source of the disease has not been discovered for a long time, or the cause of the more serious disease is mercury poisoning.

And even if mercury poisoning occurred at the time, it would be considered the result of side effects of the drug.

The toxicity of heavy metals is usually ignored.

On the Western Continent, the Alchemy Association also listed mercury as one of the metals that should be studied most, and it was highly valued by alchemists in the early years.

But when Xia Zoe was initially researching drugs, he suddenly discovered that mercury had a tendency to be put into potions by alchemists, so he wrote a letter specifically for this.

Then sent someone to the Alchemist Association.

In his letter, he directly stated that mercury contains highly toxic properties.

For example, mercury volatilizes into the air, enters the human body through breathing, or accidentally touches the skin to enter the human body... Mercury poisoning is a serious hazard and damages the health of the body.

In addition, he also elaborated on the phenomena found in experiments with animals, and suggested that the alchemists in the association should stop using mercury to study the possibility of drug treatment.

This is killing people.

After that, Xia Zoe also made some propaganda about mercury in the territory.

After this letter was sent to the Association of Alchemists, the research on mercury was reduced again and again—because it was confirmed that mercury is toxic.

After Xia Zuoyi sent the letter at that time, he saw that there was an effect, so he didn't pay much attention.

After all, he has a lot of things to be busy every day in his territory.

At that time, he naturally didn't know how much this letter had hit the alchemists of the school of metal alchemy...

Because one of his letters led to great consequences-directly leading to the overthrow of various experiments on mercury at that time, and even the experiment was completely abandoned and useless, and the effort was in vain.

Many people have resentment towards Desinia.

What's even more annoying is that Shazoe Desiña is not an alchemist who belongs to the school of metal, this alchemy!

So, what is his intention? !

It’s not difficult to explain why it’s alchemy

Someone in the Association will secretly slander him, dislike him, and evaluate the reasons for the polarization.

The metals mercury and mercury were abandoned for research for a period of time.

But who would have thought that now there is another alchemy genius-Felif Kiel standing on the booth and saying "Mercury can be used to measure temperature."

Almost at the moment he finished speaking, Xia Zuoy understood what his research results were.

Mercury thermometer, mercury clinical thermometer.

Especially the latter.

Xia Zoe couldn't help but patted his forehead. He had forgotten this common medical item to the horizon...

Probably because he had never used a thermometer to measure fever before, and he would take medicine immediately if he felt unwell or sick.

So that my heart will subconsciously ignore the past.

And Felif Gere’s research results are not so much the discovery of the effect of mercury as a manifestation of his theory.

—Metals can be changed through material transfer.

Felif Gere asked him to bring up the results of his research.

—This is a thermometer with the thickness of **** and a slightly flat shape. It is made of glass. The tube is also marked with some small scales.

He showed his research to the people sitting on the chair.

One can clearly see a small silver bead at the bottom of the glass tube, that is mercury.

At this time, the waiter placed a glass of steaming water on the table of the booth.

Fei Lifu put the end containing the mercury sphere into the hot water. After a while, a small silver thread rose along the narrow passage in the glass tube.

He listened to people's exclamations and picked up the thermometer again-after contacting the air, he waited for a while before the mercury engraved lines inside began to slowly slide, and finally recovered into the mercury sphere.

Fei Lifu: "Mercury can clearly feel the'cold' and'hot' of the four characteristics. This research is a major breakthrough. For the future..."

The nobles, including some alchemists and physicians, were listening carefully to him.

The impassioned explanation of Fei Lifu Geer, his face also flushed, he couldn't help looking at the alchemist area, and found that the man was slightly tilting his head to speak to the housekeeper standing behind him.

Xia Zoe said softly, "Udit, write this Felif Gere in the booklet..."

"I heard that the president of the Ede Chamber of Commerce is very optimistic about him. Please take care not to let the Ede Chamber of Commerce take the lead and take people away in advance."

"Yes, Lord."

Xia Zoe sat down with her arms folded.

He thought that this Felif Gere is indeed talented. Although he has a slight deviation in the research direction, he can still come back if he is trained.

Isn't this just a ready-made scientific researcher?

Shazoe smiled at Felif Gere.

"Cough... ahem, hiccup!"

Fei Lifu was choked by his own saliva suddenly on the booth, he beat his chest suddenly, his face flushed, and then he kept hiccups.

"What the **** happened to Felif today?! What a shame..."

His fellow alchemist lowered his head and covered his mouth, his expression was both embarrassing for him and wanted to laugh, so that he looked a little weird and twisted.

Fei Lifu doesn't usually do that. It's really shameful that the rope tied to his crotch is loose at the critical moment.

Sha Zoe looked strangely at Felif Gere walking off the stage with a hiccup after he finished speaking, tilting his head a little unclear.

After that, he stopped paying attention to this person, and began to look at Chebman Norton, wondering if he or the master alchemist...
