Villager of Daming

Chapter 504 Layout Fang Chengxin Lights Up (First Update)
"Twenty acres are enough, and I will blow some glazed panels to replace the ones that were accidentally broken.

When transporting to the counties in winter, we need to add quilts, it is very cold now!

Yesterday was the fall of frost, and the last vegetables were all out of the garden, only in the cellar, and we can sell them for money. "

Zhu Xi took a look inside the greenhouse, and transplanted all the seedlings that had been cultivated hard along the way.

Leek and coriander are not used, both are directly planted, but after soaking the seeds, the growth rate is faster.

Coriander needs to press the seeds open, which looks like two petals, and then soak the seeds. After they are planted, they can be harvested a little bit before the twelfth lunar month.

A few of the hired workers who studied with Xiaqiu Village should be left behind, and they are responsible for directing the work of the people here.

Scented soap and soap are also produced at this time and can be sold. The oil is the oil residue from the oil workshop purchased. The oil residue is cheap and can be eaten by people. Generally, it is not fed to livestock. It is steamed and tastes delicious.

The oil yield rate of the current technology is low. Xiaqiu Village bought the bean cakes and continued to crush them with a steam engine, and then a part of the oil could be extracted.

Generally, it can reach one-third of the oil extracted before, which is not a lot.

The bean cakes are fed to the animals in the team. When it is cold, the animals need to eat more protein to gain weight so that they have the strength to pull the carts.

"Your Highnesses, please look. This bucket contains kerosene, the most convenient oil to burn. This one contains diesel oil, which can also be used to light lamps. The last one is gasoline. It must not be exposed to open flames, and lamps cannot be lit.

This is paraffin, as long as petroleum distillation is carried out, it will inevitably appear, and the inside of the pipe wall will also be formed with temperature changes, and it needs to be cleaned.

The rest is bitumen. This bitumen...is used to make linoleum paper, which can be waterproof. It is actually poisonous, but it has little effect.

In addition, the asphalt is ignited to collect smoke and dust, which is a good raw material for ink making.

There is a record in Mengxi's written talks: It burns like hemp, but the smoke is so thick that all the curtains are black.I suspected that the smoke could be used, so I tried to sweep the coal for ink, the black light was like lacquer, and the loose ink was not as good as it was, so I made a big deal of it.His knowledge of literature is also for those who know Yanzhou as stone liquid.

It’s just that the oil there is not very good, and when it is burned, it emits black smoke, and everyone is very troubled, unlike the oil we get here, the smoke it emits is very small.

When everyone saw the smoke, they remembered the process of making ink ingots, which were obtained by collecting smoke oil.

So I used the smoke produced by this bad petroleum to make ink, which is better than pine ink!
Now let's get out the asphalt, it will be very smoky when it burns!Whoops, just cool down and collect.

It happened to be cold, so we burned it, and then we had more ink to use. The village has technology, or it can be given to the court, and the court also has technology. "

The oil extraction on Lichang's side is over, and all the oil has been extracted.

Get five things, kerosene, diesel, gasoline, paraffin, and asphalt, and all the other goodies fly.

The equipment used for extraction is still there and can continue to be used when oil is shipped in in the future.

Zhu Biao heaved a long sigh after listening to Li Chang's words: "It is true that learning is endless, but learning is endless! My life also has a limit, and knowledge has no limit. If there is a limit, follow the limitless, and it is over!"

Zhu Biao knew that after Mengxi's writing, he had no choice but to carry so many things on his back.

He found that Zhu Lichang is really smart!previously buried.

Regardless of the masters behind, at least those standing in front must remember this knowledge!

With Zhu Lichang's current appearance, it is more than enough for him to be the prefect of Xi'an Prefecture.

Huh?Why did you think of the magistrate of Xi'an Prefecture?People wear flails to work!very hard.

"His Royal Highness Qin Wang, you asked a few days ago if there is any other way to make money. Let's take a look at this kerosene lamp today. How much will it be worth if you sell it?"

The head of the village said to take everyone out, and the lights cannot be lit here.

When they went to another place, the chief brought over three or four kerosene lamps with different colored glass covers.

Colorless, red, blue, yellow, the structure is the same, it can make the line of the wick rise and fall, and the bottom is where the kerosene is loaded.

Without pressure, it can only burn normally like an oil lamp, which is brighter than a normal oil lamp.

The chief inspected his surroundings, made sure that there was no problem in the environment, took out a match, wiped it, and lit the four kerosene lamps one by one.

"Matches have never been sold since they were manufactured, and are only provided to the army and the palace. The outside of the army is even coated with wax to prevent water from entering.

There are many ways to make fire. The magnifying glass made in the village is easy to use to make fire.

The biggest problem with the steam engine is water. When a ship is traveling on the sea, seawater must not be added.

Internal circulation components will be made later, but the water still needs to be reduced. If you drift at sea for a long time, seawater desalination must be done.

The village is building a light-type evaporation system, and at the same time the evaporated gas has to be cleaned of impurities.

Use cotton and charcoal to absorb, and then there will be relatively clean water, and impurities in the precipitated water can be used such as ferrous sulfate and alum.

That is to say, things that make fire must be able to be heated, and water will be heated to produce steam, which can be recycled and filtered so that people can drink it and use it for steam engines.

Seagoing ships should carry enough saltpeter to make ice, condense water, and even refrigerate frozen seafood. "

While the chief was fiddling with four kerosene lamps, he introduced the problems that might arise during the voyage, which were actually inevitable.

The two brothers listened and watched, and found that even in the daytime, the kerosene lamp was much brighter than candles and ordinary oil lamps.

Zhu Biao picked it up and shook it slightly: "Can you sprinkle it?"

"There is a seal, unless it is turned upside down, it will not be affected by slight shaking, just like a lantern with candles.

The bottom is heavy and can be tied with ropes and weights. Under normal conditions, it does not leak oil.

The carrying part is movable, and when it is swaying, the lamp holder actually releases its force. Who would think of turning the lamp upside down when using the lamp? "

The chief took another frame and installed the kerosene lamp on it. That is the universal wheel, turn it!

No matter how you turn, the bottom is the vertical stress point, unless you want it to turn over on purpose.

"It turns out it can be hung up." Zhu Biao understood this time.

But Zhu Xi was depressed: "Li Chang, this can't be sold! It's sold here, only to the rich people in Chang'an. We can make money by selling other things, but not this one.

This... the palace is useless.But it can be sold to barbarians, how have they ever seen such a thing!

The key is the oil, right?They didn't. We sold the glazed lamp, and we can sell oil later.

Will soybean oil work?Can it be as bright as it is now?What about other oils? "

"No, this lamp is kerosene and diesel. Other oils are not comparable, and the brightness is not enough."

The mayor shook his head. He saw the brightness of the kerosene lamp after being adjusted last night, illuminating a large area.

Of course, light bulbs are better than kerosene lamps, and electric lights are used in Xiaqiu Village and the palace.

There are no electric lights in other places, and it is impossible to promote them. The best can only be kerosene lamps.

"Sell the barbarians, first sell the barbarians, our Daming Navy will equip them, but they are not allowed to be sold."

Zhu Yu still insisted that it could not be sold to rich people in Ming Dynasty, it belonged to internal sales, and precious metals could be obtained from outside.
