Mohist Tang

“There are many metals in this world that are similar in color to silver, but you haven’t discovered it yet!” Mo Dun turned his head to Wu Meiniang in the laboratory in the backyard of Mohist Residence.

The mirror of the Mo Dun manufacture tin amalgam method is used as the dowry for Princess Changle. Naturally, it needs to be kept secret. Therefore, in the entire laboratory, there are only the first three of Mo Dun, Wu Meiniang, and Old Zhang.

Old Zhang on the side, looking thoughtful nodded, said: “The ironware that has just been smelted is also extremely white, but it is very easy to rust and is not suitable for mirrors.”

Mo Dun nodded said: “Yes, although iron is equally white, it is not suitable. However, although there are not many things that are not easy to rust and the color of silver is similar, there are not many, such as aluminum, tin, and mercury. It’s mercury!”

“Mercury?”

Wu Meiniang’s glasses suddenly lit up. If it comes to the color, I am afraid that the color of mercury is the most similar to that of silver, otherwise neither Call it mercury.

Old Zhang shook his head and said: “Although the color of mercury is similar to silver, the mercury drips on the ground like water drops, I am afraid it can’t stick to the glass at all.”

Wu Meiniang suddenly frowned , Looked at Mo Dun puzzled.

Mo Dun solemnly said to Wu Meiniang: “So I will teach you as a teacher. Another great skill of Mohist Family Mohist Technology is the method of alloy.”

“Alloy The method!” Wu Meiniang hurriedly scowled, and listened earnestly. She is now very obsessed with Mohist Family Mohist Technology, and she can’t help being 100% energetic when she hears Mohist Family Mohist Technology’s stunts.

“Young Master, Old Zhang should avoid it!” Old Zhang said with some anxiety. Mo Dun teaches Wu Meiniang Mohist Family’s stunts, he might be appropriate to listen.

“What do you say about Uncle Zhang, you are still Mohist Family’s skill, when did the Small Official Mohist Family’s stunts be hidden from you!” Mo Dun quickly persuaded.

“Many thanks Young Master, trust!” Old Zhang moved his head.

Mo Dun took a deep breath, solemnly said: “The alloy method is not the original creation of the Mohist Family, but the amalgam method born out of Daoist School! Qi Nai alloy is a different thing, through Mixing or smelting in different proportions, different things, different proportions, and even different smelting methods will have completely different effects.”

Old Zhang nodded and said solemnly: “Young Master What is said is that Mohist Family’s iron-smelting and steel-making effects are different as heaven and earth, but the material is very different. The Daoist Schools amalgam method is rumored to be even more magical, and its a bit of gold.”

Mo Dun nodded said: “The amalgamation method is based on mercury. However, my teacher believes that everything in this world is applicable. How many kinds of things are in this world, two even It is multiple mixed smelting, and there will be endless new things appearing. This will be a lot of knowledge, and how broad the prospects of the Mohist Family are.” Mo Dun said passionately.

Wu Meiniang was immediately full of pride, and the young heart was stirred by Mo Dun, and it was as if he had been beaten in blood. Nodded, he felt a great sense of belonging to the Mohist Family.

In fact, Wu Meiniang is more than just Wu Meiniang. Even the head of Old Zhang on the side is equally excited and hard to control himself. Mo Duns alloying method has opened up an endless field of knowledge for the Mohist Family.

“Now as a teacher, I will personally demonstrate the alloying method for you. Although mercury cannot be attached to glass, the teacher uses tin to mix with mercury.” Mo Dun finished speaking and picked up a complete picture. Place the glass in front of the two, and at the same time stick a piece of tin foil as thin as cicada wing on one side of the glass.

Wu Meiniang and Old Zhang stared at Mo Dun’s movements one by one, without missing a trace of detail.

After Mo Dun finished all of this, he dripped some mercury on the glass. It turned out that the mercury was like Old Zhang said. The mercury was attached to the tin foil roundly like water drops, even rolling back and forth. Does not touch the glass.

As time passed, the thin tin foil was slowly melted by mercury. Mo Dun cleaned up the excess mercury and found that the original tin foil became a kind of viscous silver white liquid Tin amalgam, tin amalgam is tightly attached to the glass, there is no trace of air, which perfectly solves the problem of air.

However, there are also risks in Mohist Technology. For example, this mercury is toxic and volatile. It should not be exposed for too long and cannot be carried out in a sealed space. Mo Dun said. .

“disciple, remember!” Wu Meiniang taught.

Mo Dun gently turned over the unfinished mirror, revealing the front of the mirror, and saw that the three people in the mirror were clearly visible, and they didnt even notice the tin amalgam behind them. It is several times better than the silver mirror made by Wu Meiniang.

“This is the real magic mirror!” Wu Meiniang looked at herself in the mirror and couldn’t help but obsessively said, but she was not obsessed with her looks, but with the magical Mohist Technology .

Before that, she almost thought that the silver mirror she had made was the limit, but she didn’t expect Mo Dun to change it to create a more advanced mirror.

Old Zhang’s head also showed a hint of shock. Although he claimed to be the number one craftsman in Mohist Village, but in fact he was nothing after Mo Dun, he had a superb craftsmanship, attempt nothing and accomplish Nothing. In the first half of life, until I met Young Master, did he have a chance to show off his talents. Anything in the hands of Mo Dun will have the effect of change something rotten into something magical.

Mo Dun looked at the sticky tin amalgam, shook his head and said: “Although the teacher has solved the attachment problem, it is confirmed that mercury is not real silver after all. If real silver is transferred to the glass, then I’m afraid it’s the perfect mirror.”

“How can silver get onto the glass?” Old Zhang was stunned, and couldn’t help being stunned by Mo Dun’s idea of pegasus.

Mo Dun haha said with a smile: “Not now, maybe someday in the future, there will be Mohist Family Son.”

Wu Meiniang on the side said this secretly in the heart, turned his head and looked at the sticky tin amalgam on the back of the mirror worriedly said: “But, Master, now the five-day period is coming, can this mirror be completed as scheduled?”

Mo Dun haha smiled and pointed to a few items covered in linen next to him and said: “This method of making mirrors is to be demonstrated for you by the teacher and taught to you by the Mohist Family skill. The real mirror has already been manufactured by Uncle Zhang, Are the things I want ready?”

“Young Master, dont worry, a little carpentry will not trouble me Old Zhang!” Old Zhang said, taking out a few well-made wooden frames .

A bare glass mirror is naturally nothing to look at. Mo Dun from later generations has naturally seen a variety of mirror frame styles, and has long sent the drawings back to Mohist Village manufacture.

Old Zhang lifted the linen cloth, revealing a few mirrors that have been manufactured. A little carpentry will naturally not be troubled by Old Zhang’s head. Under the gaze of Mo Dun master and disciple, Old Zhang’s head self-taught Begin to assemble the mirrors, and soon all the mirrors have been assembled.

So far, the wedding gift for Princess Changle has been prepared.
