Chapter 91 Technical Capabilities
Ask the servants to help get firewood, help pour the wine into the wine vessels, and ask the servants to find a few bowls and several clean wine jars.
The servants found the things one by one.
Then, ask the servant to open the wine jar and pour the wine into the serving vessel one jar at a time.
Li Mengxi counted and poured eight and a half jars, and the wine container as thick as a bucket was 90% full.
Then, use clean water, pour a little on the four sides of the wine vessel, put the lid on it, and hydrate it to seal it.
Li Mengxi couldn't do such a simple task as lighting firewood, because he didn't know how to use flint and needed a servant.
The good thing is that Zhang Fei's servants are not afraid of Li Mengxi because he is just a baby, and they get along well with each other.
The servants asked curiously what they were doing.
Li Mengxi hesitated for a moment, thinking that distilled liquor was a tool for making money and must not be leaked.
"Don't ask more." Li Mengxi scolded lightly.
Knowing that he had made a mistake, the servants stopped asking.
The flint and steel ignited the moxa, and with a bang, the moxa caught fire. The servant who lit the fire had quick hands and eyes, and threw the moxa ball into the wheat straw, which was ignited.
The chin was stuffed with wheat straw, then thin wooden sticks. After the thin wooden sticks were burned, chopped hard firewood was placed next.
The seemingly simple order of lighting a fire shows the wisdom of life.
The easily flammable wheat straw ignites the less flammable branches, and then the branches ignite the less flammable hardwood, and so on.
Lesson learned, Li Mengxi thought as he looked at the burning wood under the wine vessel.
The heating efficiency of the pottery was indeed a bit low. Li Mengxi squatted on the ground and waited. After a while, he went to see if there was any wine flowing out of the wine bowl placed at the wine spout.
However, after not seeing wine for a long time, Li Mengxi thought that there was a leak in this thing.
Finally, after a long time, I finally saw wine dripping down from the outlet.
"The wine is out! The wine is out!" Li Mengxi shouted excitedly.
The amount of wine that comes out is roughly the size of the bottom of the bowl. If you pour it into a cup, it will probably be as much as half a cup like a disposable cup in a restaurant.
Li Mengxi didn't know much about the process of steaming wine. He only knew that he had to remove the top wine, but he didn't know how much of the top wine should be removed.
Because it was the first practical operation, Li Mengxi hesitated for a moment, fearing that the first wine would not be squeezed thoroughly, so Li Mengxi took a little more, less than half a bowl.
Then, he started to put the clean wine jar on.
The head has been pinched.
The steamed first wine looked clear and translucent. Shake it gently in the black pottery bowl twice. It is said that wine is different from water. The wine is more viscous and will hang on the glass. Li Mengxi pretended to be accommodating and swayed around.
I went there and saw no hanging cup.
Put it up to your nose and smell it.
"Ouch!" Suddenly, a pungent smell of alcohol penetrated his nostrils, and Li Mengxi was immediately smoked by the alcohol. Not to mention the smell of the wine, the intensity of the smell was like strong liquor.
Steaming wine will definitely be successful.
Li Mengxi was in a very good mood.
While Li Mengxi was humming a song and steaming wine at home, the military doctors at the manor and the medical center had followed the orders of the military advisor Li Mengxi. After setting up the medical center, they began to treat him.
First came the children. Just as the military advisor expected, they checked their pulse and frowned more and more tightly. Not only were these little children weak, many of them had heat in their internal organs and felt wind-cold externally.
Seeing that one of these dolls was coughing and the other was sniffling, Bu started to think twice.
Just prescribe one dose of medicine, boil it in a large pot, and drink it for all the children. After drinking it for a few days, they will be cured.
There is only a bare divination staff. Although he has the same position as a ten-man commander, he does not have a single person under his command. He has to check the patient's pulse, prescribe medicine and brew the medicine himself.
If the military advisor Li Mengxi was here, Bu could still go and tell the military advisor that he wanted someone to help him prepare the medicine. But at this moment, the military advisor had gone off somewhere and hadn't come back for a long time, so he asked Bu to go directly to Liu Bei and say,
Bu doesn't really dare.
I had no choice but to ask the craftsman who fired the stove to build it with bricks, put a pottery jar on it, and boil a jar of medicine first.
The military advisor ordered to treat the children first, and then the refugees.
After Bu grabbed the medicine, he put it in one place and gave it to the medicine maker. Then he stood up and cupped his hands towards the adults who came with the children to see the doctor. "Everyone, please go back temporarily. This box of medicine has been boiled. Wait for it," he said.
When it gets dark, the children will come again and each drink a bowl of medicine and sleep for a night, so that the wind and cold will be relieved tomorrow."
The adults would like to express their sincere thanks to Bu Qianren.
Bu suddenly felt a heat in his chest. He was very happy to help others. However, Bu had some political awareness and was not an ordinary ignorant country roughneck. The peasants thanked Bu. How could he dare to accept it? He moved to the side of the case and said hurriedly
, "Don't be too polite! I practice medicine under the orders of the military advisor and Duke Xuande. If you want to thank me, thank Duke Xuande! How can you thank me?"
It would be helpful to teach the people who they should thank.
I don't dare to be greedy for merit.
The adults led the baby away, and Bu looked outside the courtyard in a daze for a moment. Only half a day later, Bu said that the past situation suddenly seemed far away.
Half a day ago, he was a homeless man. Half a day later, he was a captain of ten men and had a well-equipped and bright medical hospital. Bu felt that he had suddenly returned to the past, in his own medical hospital.
.
The rebel army is indeed very efficient. There are two key reasons. One is that Liu Bei is a virtuous corporal and knows people well. Li Mengxi found a doctor. Liu Bei did not hesitate and directly paid homage to the ten-man commander and gave him a dagger as a gift.
Tian Bu returns to his heart.
What Liu Bei could do was the limit of what the ancients could do.
Li Mengxi was very different from the ancients in that he was very concerned about and curious about technical details. When he asked, he found that a lot of things were missing, so he immediately took care of it.
Therefore, it took only half a day to build a medical center.
Without Li Mengxi, and with the contempt for technical details of the ancients like Liu, Guan, and Zhang, Liu Beineng would have awarded Tian Bu the military rank of Captain on the same day, and nothing would have happened.
It wasn't until an epidemic broke out in the army that we discovered that there was a shortage of medicine in the army, so we rushed to buy medicine. When the medicine was finally bought, we suddenly discovered that there were no equipment for weighing and pounding medicine. Even if these things were not used, the medicine would not be weighed if it was not weighed.
It can be boiled even if it is pounded, but when it comes to boiling the medicine, it is discovered that the pot for boiling the medicine is not enough.
Then I hurriedly collected enough medicine cans and prepared to light a fire to boil. Unfortunately, it was windy and the fire could not be lit. I was forced to vacate the tent and boil in the tent.
Then, after struggling for a long time, the medicine was ready.
But with Li Mengxi around, he could inadvertently notice the smallest details. When he saw a little bit, he could associate more points. He could see one omission and make up for ten omissions.
There was no need to wait for the epidemic to break out before discovering the problem. The epidemic had not yet broken out. Li Mengxi had already discovered the lack of medicinal materials, medicine cabinets, scales, stoves, windproof marching stoves, etc.
Also, the alcohol lamp is about to be made.
Li Mengxi's important role in the rebel army was by no means as simple as a wise man formulating strategies.
Rather, it is more like the kind of military talent that can improve in every detail.
At this point, Li Mengxi never realized that he had such a powerful ability.
In other words, because he pays attention to technology and the details of technical execution, Li Mengxi is the only person in the rebel army who can consider problems from a technical perspective.
