Moreover, the Dionian Academy is also open to the outside world. Every day, there is a fixed quota that allows Dionian people who love knowledge to enter the academy. Therefore, many people have heard the lectures of the medical school, especially the " "A Brief History of Medical Development" is a class, because its content is lively and interesting and does not involve professional medical terms. Many people still remember it, and this class focuses on Hippocrates.
"Oh, he is the Hippocrates who said, "There is Dionian Medical School in the west and Hippocrates in the east"!"
"I heard that he has been in and out of the place where the plague occurred many times, seeking a way to save the sick Greek people, even not caring about his own life... This is a good man with a noble morality."
"I also heard that he set up a clinic on Kos Island, and did not charge the poor for medical expenses, saving many people..."
"The Greek city-states in the Eastern Mediterranean did not have hospitals and so many professionally trained doctors like our Dionian cities. Without Hippocrates, they would live in fear of disease. "
"No! I think it is mainly the Greeks in the Eastern Mediterranean that do not believe in Hades and cannot be blessed by it!"
"Well, you are right."
……
The onlookers clapped spontaneously while talking excitedly.
"Ms. Hippocrates." Helps pointed to a large audience applauding on the dock, and said excitedly: "The people of Dionia are warmly welcoming you, and we are ready to listen to you. Lectures!"
Hippocrates hurriedly waved his hand and said humbly: "I dare not talk about lectures. I am here to exchange and learn. I have long heard that medicine is very prosperous in the Kingdom of Dionian, and there is also a deep Medicine, the king who strongly supports medical research! I have carefully read the book "Human Anatomy" that you brought with me when you invited me. You have studied the bones, muscles, organs, blood vessels of the human body to such a profound level. , It's amazing, it's amazing!
There is also the "Theory of Human Blood Circulation" with only more than 100 words, which has solved my confusion for many years. Unfortunately, it is only that, did you start to study it? ! ...Hey, I should have been here long ago! Should have come long ago! "Hippocrates couldn't help but sigh. Although he is old, he has clear thinking and clear speech.
Stacey Cordas and Helps looked at each other and said with a smile: "The Human Blood Circulation Theory is almost complete, and we are waiting for your criticism. There are also our newly made mannequins, All kinds of new surgical tools, tens of thousands of cases of various diseases... are placed in the Dionian Medical College. Waiting for you to watch, read, communicate... We heard that you are undergoing skull surgery and treating epilepsy As well as the prevention and control of the plague and many other aspects, we have very in-depth research. We would like to work with you..."
Stacy Kodas' words made Hippocrates' eyes brighten. Before he could finish speaking, the old man grabbed Helps's hand with no less speed than the young man, and said excitedly: "Where is the Dionian Medical School?! Take me there! Take me!..."
As he said, he couldn't wait to move forward, and even forgot to introduce his two proud apprentices. Helps helped him along the way.
A large group of doctors walked through the port area, attracting the curious watching of countless people, and passing by the hurriedly coming Mattiklis and Mento Tique Els.
The two elders who rushed here (the deans of the two-digit college also entered the Senate on the proposal of Davers a few years ago) although they are curious why the medical school people are all out, But at the moment, he didn't have the mind to ask. They rushed to the exit of the dock and asked the waiting students: "Are you here?"
The students shook their heads.
"The clippers notified us before that the passenger ship he was on had entered Taranto Bay!" Mattiks scratched his head irritably.
"Don't worry, wait a minute!" Mentortik Els comforted him.
The two were talking, but they didn't know that the people around them were surprised to see them appear. Although they are not as prestigious among the people as Helps and Stacey Cordas, they are quite respected among the laborers of the port, because the pulley jib that has been improved many times is derived from Matticius's. Design, it greatly reduces their workload of loading and unloading goods and avoids the possibility of injury as much as possible. And many sailors in the port know that Matikes is also using his invented theory of buoyancy to make experiments in which thin iron covers the wooden hull so that it can float on the water...
Then these two knowledgeable scholars are dispatched together to meet who? ! The people are full of expectations.
At this time, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man came to the front of the welcoming team and asked: "Is it the one responsible for holding the All-Hellenic Scholars Conference?"
"Yes, who are you?" a student asked.
The middle-aged man smiled: "My name is Senstrian, a scholar from Aldera."
Aldera? ! Hearing the name of this place, Maticius immediately asked loudly: "What is your relationship with Democritus?"
"Democritus is my respected teacher!" Sainstrian said with an apologetic expression: "I want to apologize to you! The teacher originally promised to participate in this scholars conference, but before the departure A few days ago, he contracted the cold and his body has not recovered well. He is 78 years old, and he is really unsuitable for such a long-distance boat trip. Not only his family persuaded him, but even the city-state councillors came to persuade him. In the end, he could only give up his intention to come to participate in the conference and send me to Turey to conduct academic exchanges on his behalf, and hope to get your understanding!"
"That's really a shame! I also want to have a good exchange with him about the calculation methods and knowledge of cones, spheres... these geometric aspects." Matticlis held his hair regretfully.
Mentortic Els quickly said: "We are indeed not thoughtful enough. The elderly Democritus teacher is really not suitable for this kind of long-distance travel. I believe he can send you-Senstri Ann is here, you must be his best student, and we will listen to your wonderful speech."
"That's right! That's right!" After all, Matticlis has been the deputy dean of the Mathematics Academy for so many years, and he has no emotional intelligence at all. He sincerely said to Senstrian: "I look forward to it. Communicate with you on knowledge such as mathematics, physics, astronomy, etc. As for philosophy, Gorkiah will definitely invite you enthusiastically, but that will have to wait until you have spoken and communicated at the Mathematics Institute."
Sernstrian quickly humbled a few words, and everyone quickly got acquainted and walked out of the port with a smile while talking.
Maticlis was very loud just now, and the onlookers heard the name "Democritus". A businessman from the Ionian region exclaimed: "Democritus! Dionysian Ya actually invited Democritus!"
Someone next to him hurriedly asked: "Who is Democritus?"
"You people in the Western Mediterranean may not know him well, but the Greeks in the Eastern Mediterranean, especially in the Sea of Yoke, Asia Minor and Ionian, know him as long as they can read and read. He lived in the Greek colony of Thrace. Aldera is a very knowledgeable scholar. It is said that he knows everything about nature, philosophy, astronomy, geography, mathematics, physics, animals, medicine, law, politics... countless young Greeks go to Aldera, Ask him for teaching and inquiries, and they are all satisfied. Even the king of Persia heard about his reputation and wrote to invite him to give lectures in Babylon, but he refused. And I heard that Democritus was a university scholar, He is humorous by nature, kind to people, and able to talk about very complicated issues vividly and interestingly. Many Greeks who studied from him came back and praised him, even calling him the'all-knowing outside of God'... "The businessman was quite proud of what he had heard about Democritus.
The people around listened leisurely and couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that this great scholar can't come!"
"Look, Lord Ansitanos is here! And the eloquent Lycias!" The people watching the excitement of Turei exclaimed again.
As the first patriarch of the kingdom and the author of "History of Great Greece", Ansitanos has won the respect of the people. And Lycias is also famous in Dionia, not to mention the carols he wrote at various celebrations every year, and in the trial of Laodisian, he became famous as a defense lawyer in one fell swoop, which made many young people think Worshiping him to learn to debate, many people who committed crimes wanted to hire him to defend themselves, and now his house is crowded every day.
So wherever they passed, the people saluted them.

Plato got off the passenger ship and did not leave the dock in a hurry, but was carefully observing the situation in the port.
He found that although the port of Turíy is not as large as the port of Piraeus in Athens, and its location is not very good, its busyness is almost the same as that of Piraeus, and the port is hygienic and clean. The equipment of this kind of facility is much better than Piraeus, especially the boom erected on the trestle, which attracted a lot of his attention.
The arrival and departure of various merchant ships and passenger ships in the port, the docking at the pier, the loading and unloading of goods, how can labor, sailors, and passengers not interfere with each other? Can the entire pier operate effectively and maintain good order? ……By observing these, we can see the level of management affairs of a city-state. Obviously, the busy but orderly scene of the port of Turii made Plato nodded secretly.
At this moment, Spiusips reminded me: "Teacher, maybe someone from Dionian Academy has come to greet us."
When Plato heard the words, he turned his head and looked around, just in time to see the person in front of him who was striding towards him shouting to him: "Plato, welcome! Welcome to Turei!"
