Chapter 47 (1/2)
Shen Xue and Zuo Mengmeng made their way to Aunty Feng. Although she arrived before them, she was still having her meal slowly.
Zuo Mengmeng sat down smilingly. “Aunty, why haven’t you finished your meal yet?”
Aunty Feng, with her coiffed hair, said while chuckling, “I’m getting older, so my appetite is not so good. I have to chew my food well before swallowing it.”
“Hmm, hmm, hmm, you’re right, aunty!” Zuo Mengmeng nodded, and then she said, “Aunty, I have something that I wish to tell you.”
Aunty Feng said, “What is it?”
Zuo Mengmeng spoke with an awkward expression, “This is the case. I have a friend… He’s a doctor in our hospital too. He was just here having his lunch too and noticed that you were having difficulty swallowing; then…”
Aunty Feng said out of curiosity, “What’s with it then?”
Zuo Mengmeng paused for a moment before continuing, “He felt that you might possibly be having some health issues related to your stomach, intestines, or pancreas, and he suggested that you go for a related health check-up.”
Upon hearing that, Aunty Feng said smilingly, “It’s fine, it’s fine. My body is still healthy, only that my throat doesn’t feel so good due to the constantly changing weather from hot to cold over the past two days. I’ll be fine in a few days.”
Zuo Mengmeng took a glance at Shen Xue and said with a smile on her face, “Uh… Alright then, we shall make a move first.”
“Alright! Please help me to convey my appreciation to that doctor friend of yours.”
“Hmm, sure. Bye, aunty…”
They left the cafeteria. Zuo Mengmeng said, “I was right, wasn’t I?”
Shen Xue considered for a moment before saying, “How about this? Why don’t we tell Director Liu as well.”
“What? Why are we being such busybodies when Aunty Feng has already said that she is having a throat discomfort.”
Zuo Mengmeng paused for a moment before saying, “Hey, I noticed that you’ve been especially enthusiastic, especially when it comes to his matters. Have you taken fancy in him?”
Shen Xue’s face blushed ever so slightly as she said, “No… He’s only being kindhearted; it doesn’t do us any harm to help and remind her, right?”
Zuo Mengmeng took a glance at her face and said while nodding, “Alright, as you wish…”
…
Zhou Wen was free in the afternoon, so he studied literature related to genetic modification for a while in preparation for tomorrow’s oral examination.
Soon afterward, he spent 200 Points to learn the formula for a Biotype Scar Cream.
[Nano silver, nano zinc, fucoidan, dragon’s blood, borneol, fossilized bones, Centella Asiatica, myrrh, mints…]
[Ten parts of nanosilver, seven parts of nano zinc and dragon’s blood…]
Zhou Wen studied the information in his mind meticulously.
After he had completely mastered the formula and preparation method, he made the decision to give it a go at making it.
The scar cream was different from the pain relief medication. As it was used as an external ointment, the preparation method was much simpler, and there was no need for him to carry out clinical trials either.
He decided that he would add in a toxicology test when he was done preparing the scar cream later.
As long as the effect was good, the future prospect of the scar cream was simply immeasurable.
Zhou Wen immediately headed to the pharmacy downstairs to purchase the required medicinal herbs as soon as he figured it all out.
Then, he headed straight to the small laboratory on the third floor right away when he was done with the shopping.
He had already requested for Sun Jing to help her to convey his wish to Liu Weiping on behalf of him. This location would be his personal laboratory from now on, and no one else was allowed to use it without his permission.
Then, he conveyed his wish to Zhang Shuguang shamelessly and requested a clean bench, high-pressure autoclave, ultrasonic cleaner, vortex mixer, and other necessary laboratory equipment from the equipment division.
As for an electron microscope, he needed the signed approval from the director of the laboratory department. Zhang Shuguang’s name was not enough to earn him that.
He had no need for that either, of course. However, he got himself an almost condemned optical microscope from the equipment division just to prevent the suspicion of others.
Zhou Wen added the ingredients, including dragon’s blood, fossilized bones, Centella Asiatica, and other medicinal herbs into the mortal one by one to crush them according to the method of preparation.
Then, he mixed up mint, fossilized bones, and water evenly before he added myrrh powder, fucoidan, mixed well until it dissolved. Then, he added Centella Asiatica powder and continued to stir until dissolved as well.
Later, he added a nano antibacterial agent, dragon’s blood, and borneol into an appropriate amount of water before he mixed it up with the vortex mixer.
Zhou Wen carried out the method of preparation step by step, strictly.
This was biotype pharmaceutics, so any minor mistake could possibly result in a failed production or imperfect medicinal effect.
In total, Zhou Wen spent five hours before he finally produced the Biotype Scar Spray.
In reality, he needed to crystalize the product, too, but due to the lack of equipment, he decided that he would just use the product as it was. He would spray it twice to achieve an optimal effect at most.
Next, he needed to perform a toxicology test.
It was precisely at this time when he felt hungry. He checked the time to find that it was almost eight and the cafeteria had already closed.
He remembered that he still had five more apples in his inventory list. However, he immediately rejected the idea soon afterward. He would never eat it even if he had to die!
He took out his phone and tapped on a food delivery application.
After dinner, he headed to the microbiological examination team to perform a safety test for the spray at nine o’clock.
The toxicology test took close to four hours to complete, which was until one o’clock in the morning.
The Biotype Scar Spray was non-toxic, and it did not produce any side effect on the skin tissue either, such as a burn. It was extremely safe to be used.
Zhou Wen returned to the third floor and filled the spray liquid into a sterilized spray bottle. He produced a total of 120ml.
He placed down the bottle and rolled up the hem of his right leg, revealing his calf. There was a dark black scar the size of an infant’s fist on the left side.
