Villager of Daming

Chapter 81 Deep Mine Excavation and New Combinations
"I've met you, Old Fourth Feng, why is this between us?" the chief said politely, but he was very happy.

He doesn't care what the other party sends, as long as they have this intention.

Among the 22 villages, apart from my own village, only the chiefs of [-] villages came to deliver things in person.

The little things that were given were not enough for a meal in the village, and the family came with a look of gratitude, enough!

He wasn't angry if he didn't come. He knew that some village chiefs didn't have enough authority. When renting animals, the chief came over, and when exchanging favors, other people in power in a village refused to agree.

Unlike my own Xiaqiu Village, Xiaqiu Village can't do such things. Xiaqiu Village has people who guard the village!

Those who have told their fortunes, asked for them, and paid homage to their ancestors to enter the book.

Do you have any in other villages?Make trouble in your village yourself!All the villagers in my village are united, and their energy is directed towards one place.

Feng Gui seemed to have thought of the same question. He looked at Hanhan who was standing next to him: "Damn it! If I knew my village would take good care of the villagers, Yichang, you borrow Hanhan..."

"Feng Lao Si, are you farting? The village guards still borrow it?"

The chief turned his face instantly, you want to be silly?I'm strangling you now.

……

"What did the barbarians say? The glass they brought before... Hmph! How much did you dig?"

After Zhu Yuanzhang got the physical utensils and firing methods, his whole person was different.

He has already issued an order to cancel the export of Ming medicinal materials and increase the prices of silk and porcelain.

The Guanyi people want silver, overseas medicinal materials, grain, jewelry, etc. to reduce the amount.

Knowing in advance that most areas will be dry next year, he is worried that there will not be enough food, so he buys it from outside.

The construction of the central capital was also affected, too many people were recruited, wells were dug in winter in places that were going to be dry, and there was a shortage of manpower and skilled craftsmen.

What's more, Linhao is also in winter at the moment, and it is not easy to build, so wait until the weather is warm after the drought, and then continue.

A batch of refractory bricks was extracted from the brick kiln used to burn Jiandu. It is mentioned in the prescription that hard firing can be done without limestone, which is the Fei kiln.

In addition, I told you that there is a good alkali mine in Tongbai County in the Yuan Dynasty, which is currently under the management of Biyang, with Tongbai Mountain in the east and the Huai River passing by.

That is, it is buried relatively deep, and it is only after digging more than 200 feet that you can find a large amount of salt-containing alkali ore, which can be treated after being dug out.

Attached to the letter was a simple map showing the location.

The local alkali mine can't be used up for decades, and you can do whatever you want, which is better than limestone in many cases.

It is said that digging a well is so deep, Zhu Yuanzhang will never send someone to dig it, two hundred feet deep, how to dig a well?

It needs a lot of wood support, digging down a little bit, using a lot of manpower and material resources.

However, when Zhu Yuanzhang thought that the decades he said would not be used up, he decided to dig out. Alkali is now known to be able to make soap and burn glaze.

So he also urged the craftsmen to speed up, give rewards, and pay attention to safety.

He wanted to use the alkali mine to see if the expert was really so powerful, and he knew everything buried two hundred feet underground?
"Father, it's easy to dig at the beginning, and my son will send them special meat to eat. My son also wants to know whether the expert is right or wrong."

Zhu Biao didn't care whether the Yi people's colored glaze was sold well or not. He stared at the alkali mines in Tongbai County. If there was any, it would be there, and if there wasn't, there would be none. It was the easiest to understand.

He gave meat to the workers, used all the equipment that could be used, gave money, and doubled the money.

One person digs desperately, and after half an hour of digging, he loses his strength, and the replacement is replaced, and the replaced one rests, and waits to be replaced after recovering.

There must be inclined wells, vertical wells, and drainage, and the soil transporter must not delay the well digging.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly: "It should be given to meat. The stone alkali in Xiaqiu Village is not easy to get. Our colored glaze can't be sold cheaply. The barbarians didn't know how to burn colored glaze quickly. The colored glaze that was exchanged from them before... …well!"

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed as he said, he was at a disadvantage!
A lot of colored glaze products sent by Xiaqiu Village are very beautiful, and they are made in large quantities.

Such as foreign sugar, dare to sell it so expensive, are the barbarian poor and crazy?The sugar cane was harvested this year, but it was sold to barbarians.

"Like other things, it has been kept strictly confidential. All participating artisan households are sent to live together. It is forbidden to have private relations outside. Sending people to visit secretly will give more benefits to the artisan households."

Zhu Biao explained the method of keeping secrets, not allowing craftsmen and their families to leave a certain area at all, and sending people to send things needed in life.

The craftsmen are not allowed to say anything when they go home. Once they find out, they will kill them all and even sit down.

Each craftsman is responsible for different production links, and they do not communicate with each other.

Craftsmen are like this, personal freedom is nothing in front of Daming's interests, at least they can live with their families.

"Treat them kindly. Once the barbarians figure it out, the craftsmen will let them go. Seeing the New Year, see what the village lacks, and send what is in the palace."

Empress Ma spoke out, and the village came up with good things to help Daming make money, so it can't be chilling.

"Mother, they don't seem to lack anything, and they are well versed in the way of health care and conditioning. Some time ago, the county magistrate, county magistrate, and chief secretary of Xuancheng County were all sick when they preached the prevention and treatment of livestock diseases in other villages.

They went to Xiaqiu Village to see a doctor. After drinking the medicine, they were relieved, and they recovered in three days. After a few days, they recuperated and continued to preach. "

Zhu Biao had a smile on his face when he said it. The officials were sick and ran to the village. How worried are the doctors and doctors in the county?
"It's so! Then write a letter to ask what medicinal materials are still missing. Among the [-] new prescriptions they brought, some raw medicine libraries that were not used as medicinal materials have begun to collect."

Empress Ma also laughed when she heard the words, the officials are not stupid, they know where the chance of survival is high.

……

Xiaqiu Village Mountain Temple, friends keep a safe distance to watch Brother Hanhan make things.

Now that Zhu Wentian's glassware was usable, he first burned it with green vitriol from the pharmacy, which had glass tubes.

His method is better than the method in the method of refining stone gallbladder to extract essence, because it is sealed and wastes as little as possible.

Sulfuric acid is produced, and if you want to increase the purity, heat it slowly, and then consider how to make hydrochloric acid and nitric acid.

Sulfuric acid reacts with salt and adds water to form hydrochloric acid, and reacts with saltpeter to add water to form nitric acid.

Then take lime soda to react with lime water to obtain caustic soda.

If you want to turn stone ash into soda ash, heat it slowly.

In this way, there are all three acids and two bases, and the rest depends on what to do.

If you still want to get phosphoric acid, still use sulfuric acid to react with phosphate rock.

In the past, Zhu Wentian didn't do it because he didn't have a good container to store it, and he couldn't see the state of the contents in the ceramic bottle.

Today he did a little bit of the same thing to see the effect, it was okay, his hands were not unfamiliar.

He looked at the sulfuric acid in the bottle, then at the glycerin in the bottle next to it, and smiled: "Put the two things together, and then use diatomaceous earth, no, it's milk to extract lactose, add starch and sugar to make nitroglycerin tablets.

In this way, another first-aid medicine is available, and it should be able to save many people. Other medicines are not as fast. "

"Brother Hanhan, can adding that kind of soil not save lives?"

The little girl heard it, and she thought that soil was more useful than other things.

"Eh...it can save people, our Ming soldiers." Zhu Wentian thought about it and nodded in approval.

　Don't forget to vote, thanks!
