How can cigarettes reduce the harm?

Modern people don’t even think about it, they will definitely say it is a filter cigarette.

But many people don’t know that the invention of cigarette filters was actually later than expected.

At first, corn cobs were used, but now where did Liu Mingqi find this high-yield magical object? Corn is much more important than corn cobs!

Then the cigarette filter was invented in the 1920s. It was not until forty years later, in the 1960s that the "acetate filter" that we are common today appeared.

Of course, there are some developments later, such as KDF2 acetate filters or polypropylene filters that have been used in my country. They are all filters with different materials and similar properties and effects.

With the current craftsmanship of Dakang Dynasty, I think these are all dreams.

Therefore, Liu Mingqi chose another method of filtering harmful substances that has been used since the 18th century to add substantial filters.

That is what we see on TV on weekdays, in the 1920s and 1930s, the mothers and mulberry trees in the dance halls and flower buildings often hold their mouths.

Simply put, add a cigarette holder made of wood, jade, agate and other materials at the end of the cigarette without a filter.

People do not smoke cigarettes directly, but smoke through this type of cigarette holder of different lengths.

On the one hand, it can prevent the hands from being smoked yellow and black, and on the other hand, it can also avoid the indecent appearance of smoking.

Over time, many men also fell in love with this cigarette holder, thus developing various patterns.

Liu Mingqi has seen many cigarette holders.

The cigarette holder he was planning to make for Jing Hedi was a double-tube removable cigarette holder made of small red sandalwood.

The one connecting the cigarette is a little longer, similar to the pen tube, about the length of a finger.

There are also small bags of honeysuckle, bean root, mint leaves, etc. that are made into powder, so that a layer of filtering can be formed, thereby filtering out one-third or even more of the harmful substances.

Behind the first cigarette holder is the second cigarette holder in the mouth. This one is slightly shorter and flatter, suitable for the entrance.

In addition, the cigarette mouthpiece is made of wood that can absorb tar, so the combined effect is no worse than the acetate filter of chemical raw materials.

Another advantage of this double-tube removable cigarette holder is that it can be replaced frequently.

The Chinese medicine packet must be replaced every day.

The same is true for cigarette holders. It took several months to change.

Sometimes you can change the previous one first, sometimes you can change the next one, or even two of them together.

Liu Mingqi found a carpenter at home and explained the principles to him. He quickly made a sample.

After several debugging by Liu Mingqi, he worked as a carpenter in succession and started polishing.

In one day, the carpenter made seven or eight cigarette holders of different styles and sizes.

Liu Mingqi put all these on her, then brought cigarettes, and went out excitedly.

...

Inside the Embroidered Uniform Guard, there was a dark cloud at this time.

You can hear the hoarse and violent scolding in the governor's office room from a distance.

"I said you are scumbags, a group of waste people who only know how to eat, that's right!

Today I will tell me that there is no one who buys seven-step snakes in the largest production area of ​​seven-step snakes at all?

So are the poisons in the mouths of these people and the arrows all saliva?

Can a seven-step snake venom be caused by not having a one or two liter of seven-step snake venom? How many seven-step snakes are needed to secrete a one or two liter of venom? Don’t you think I am a fool?

Get out! Get out of here! Let all these lieutenant commanders get back to me. I want to see what they are doing after so many years? Do you only eat shit all day long?"

After a moment, seven or eight people walked out of the room.

They were all captains and commanders in Beijing.

On weekdays, they walk with their heads raised and their chests raised, but now they are like chickens cut by their hands, and they are not energetic when walking.

When they met Liu Mingqi, the faces of these people were very complicated.

I felt guilty, gritted my teeth, and a little unwilling to accept it.

Liu Mingqi smiled and said nothing.

After all, my workshop is still next to the embroidered yamen, so there is no need to say any sarcastic words, which makes the relationship become ripped off.

They are not the culprits.

At best, they are just waste, it's no big deal.

They walked out before Liu Mingqi entered the room in a daze.

There was smoke in the room that could not be dissipated.

Obviously, the Gao Da Governor was smoking again.

With a calm face, he saw Liu Mingqi walking in and a smile appeared on his face when he stood up: "Your Highness, you are here! Sit, please sit!"

Gao Jing's mood is actually similar to his subordinates.

They all have a complicated impression of Liu Mingqi.

But Gao Jing is more ashamed.

When he saw Liu Mingqi, he remembered that he was not effective in handling the case and could not find out the murderer who assassinated Prince Yu.

Liu Mingqi sat down casually, "Didn't the emperor have already said that it has been turned into a long-term search? What are you doing so urgently, Gao Da Governor?"

Gao Jing said to Liu Mingqi, "The emperor's words are the emperor's gift. If our ministers are lazy because of this, they will be too ignorant of their qualities.

They are now like me, and they have been demoted and there are no rewards at the end of this year, but they have not yet awakened and have no motivation to work hard to solve the case. This is terrible.

If this is the case, then it won’t take long. I’m afraid whether our embroidered ward can still exist after the crown prince ascends the throne is a question.”

Emperor Jing He has announced the punishment for the embroidered yarn guards.

"The Xiuyiwei investigated and dealt with the case of "Captain Yu's assassination" in an extremely ineffective manner, and was lazy and lazi, and deeply dismissed my hopes. All the subjects in the world used this as a topic of discussion, and the court's face was gone.

Now, Gao Jing, the general of the Embroidered Guard, was demoted to the next level. The remaining officials of the school captain, commander, general flag, etc., all took this as a punishment and made meritorious service. "

In the punishment, Gao Jing is very embarrassed.

He became the only general among the nine guards of the imperial guards who fell into the third rank, and he couldn't even raise his head when he got together with his colleagues.

But when Liu Mingqi heard what he meant, he didn't care about this, but when he saw the crisis of the embroidered sibling guards, he also actively rectified the embroidered sibling guards, trying to pull them out of the quagmire and become the most dependent eyes and ears of the empire again.

Such a general of the embroidered guard was what Emperor Jinghe wanted to see.

So the boy did not disturb him too much, so he took out a cigarette holder from his arms, a few packages of small Chinese medicine bags, and after explaining the purpose, he wanted to leave.

"Wait a minute, Your Highness!"

Gao Jing only woke up at this time, "Give me ten more cigarettes... no, twenty packs!"

"Didn't I give you the second ten packs a few days ago?" Liu Mingqi said in surprise: "I told you that smoking more than one pack a day is not good for your health. You can smoke more than two packs a day."

"Who told it to touch troubles, increase brain vitality, and relieve fatigue, as you said?" Gao Jing smiled bitterly, "I have saved the sucking, but I'm almost done before I know it!"

"Then I have nothing to do, I can only give you five more packs." Liu Mingqi sighed, "The emperor asked me for it yesterday, and I have to keep it for him."

"Ah!? How can five packs be enough??" Gao Jing complained repeatedly.

"Isn't it all your fault?" Liu Mingqi said, "If you don't show off to Cao Xiang, Cao Xiang will not draw. Cao Xiang will not draw, and the other three prime ministers will not draw, so the emperor will not know that you all want, and now I just have some of them?"

After pausing, seeing Gao Jing's reluctance, the young man said again: "You are content! In this year and a half, only you can draw it. No other officials, including the General and the Six Ministers, have no hope. If you want to have new ones, you have to wait until they bring tobacco from overseas."

Liu Mingqi had explained the source of this tobacco to Gao Jing before, so he knew this and how cigarettes were obtained.

But Gao Jing still said unbelievably: "We are rich in resources and have no more than tens of millions of plants growing, so there are not many?"

Liu Mingqi smiled and said, "I don't think there would be no one else, otherwise it wouldn't have been done for so long... By the way, Governor Gao, you can ask the Embroidered Uniform Guard to check and see if there are similar tobaccos... I'll give you the drawings and their habits."

"This... this is for public use, isn't it good?" Gao Jing was a little embarrassed, not like the cold governor of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

This is no wonder.

When the smoke ghost is greedy for smoke, he has no dignity!

Gao Jing is not addicted to smoking yet, but in order to cope with his recent hard work and irritability, he is so dependent on cigarettes that he doesn't feel disgusted when he hears such words.

Liu Mingqi reminded him: "Your Majesty also wants to smoke, and he will not be there after a while. If you look for him like this, will you also help him solve his problems?"

Gao Jing's eyes lit up, but he coughed lightly, "Ahem, this proposal is very good. Your Highness, I will consider it."

The Grand Governor is still a shameful person. Although he has adopted Liu Mingqi's excuse in his heart, he feels embarrassed to say it in person.

Looking at the cigarette holder that Liu Mingqi left before leaving, thinking that she only had five packs recently, Gao Jing sighed without realizing it, how can she live this life!

He regretted it a little, regretting showing off in front of Cao Yi and letting him draw a shot.

After Cao Yi smoked cigarettes, he only asked Liu Mingqi for two packs for the first time, but on the third day, he asked for three packs again.

After that, the three prime ministers also saw Cao Yi sucking in Wenyuan Pavilion. Now they became interested and asked Liu Mingqi for help.

So, it became a situation where the four prime ministers were smoking cigarettes.

If this is not the case, wouldn’t the one or two hundred bags in Liu Mingqi’s hand be all his own?

Now, the emperor knows it too.

Wouldn't the most share be given to the emperor?
