Queen Mother's A Scientist

Hua Qingxue's gongs and crispy egg rolls were a great success.

With popcorn as a sign, regular customers take great care of her newly baked snacks. Although the price is a little more expensive than popcorn, we don't care much about this one or two during the new year's festival. Every stall is sold out.

The nearby stall owner advised Hua Qingxue to sell more tomorrow since it is easy to sell.

Hua Qingxue just smiled, but she didn't plan to do more.

The current quantity, which she has calculated, is within the tolerance range.

Although she is anxious to make money, she doesn't want to make herself too tired. At present, it's very hard to make snacks every morning and night. If the amount increases, she'll be really tired.

If you wear yourself out, it's not worth it.

When it was almost time to close the stall, he Wu came. The tall man stood in front of the tea stall and said foolishly, "my mother said that I was afraid that the Li family would trouble you. Let me come and give you a hand."

Hua Qingxue suddenly nodded, "ah... Well, thank you, brother he."

When he heard her call him brother he again, he Wu's face gradually turned red again.

He sullenly picked up the bench, tables and chairs, helped Hua Qingxue pile all the bits and pieces on the cart, and pulled up the cart and left without waiting for Hua Qingxue to say more.

There was friendly laughter from the stall next to him. He Wu couldn't help but be more urgent. The cart bumped badly, and the wooden bucket and stool on it shook violently. Hua Qingxue didn't dare to speak more and silently followed up to hold the objects on the cart.

They walked back one after another. It's really embarrassing for both husband and wife to return home

Hua Qingxue thought as she walked, the house here really can't be rented anymore. Although aunt he is very kind to her... It's embarrassing to live any longer.

It feels really bad.

Wait for years

If you earn a few more months in a year, you should be able to rent a house with a single door and a single yard.

When she was almost home, she looked at Aunt he standing at the gate of the hospital and waved to them, with a chicken in her other hand.

"Wuzi! Help me kill the chicken. Today I'll make you your favorite sauce roast chicken... Oh, by the way, chop the pig bones in the kitchen to make soup. "

He Wu pulled the scooter into the house. Without stopping, he took the chicken from his mother and sharpened his knife.

Aunt he helped Hua Qingxue unload the things on the scooter and waved to her, "go and have a rest. Drink hot water to warm up. It's cold... Come out for dinner later and have a taste of my aunt's craft."

Hua Qingxue smiled awkwardly. Because she came back late every time, she would rub the food of aunt he's house from time to time.

In fact, she knows it's bad, but she can't resist people's enthusiasm every time

It's always bad to eat white rice. Hua Qingxue also wants to do some work and said, "let me help brother he chop ribs."

Although she can't kill chickens, she can chop ribs.

"How can you do this? Just give it to Wu Zi!" Aunt he refused, turned and went to the kitchen to cook.

Aunt he's cooking looks like a chef, which makes Hua Qingxue think of the aunt Yan she once knew in Renqiu. She can weigh ten times with one hand in a big iron pot and has to stir fry constantly.

She can't hold such a heavy pot with one hand, let alone weigh it up.

Hua Qingxue had nothing to do about it, so he boiled water on another pot and plucked the chicken after he Wu killed it.

As soon as the water was ready, I heard the sound of banging in the yard.

Hua Qingxue was surprised and hurried to the yard. He Wu had killed the chicken and was now chopping at a pile of pig stick bones!

"Brother he, don't..."

too late.

He Wu stopped and raised the long knife in his hand. He found that a gap had been broken, which was as ugly as missing the front teeth. The other cut places at the blade were also crooked.

Hua Qingxue found that he Wu used his sabre in the barracks.

He Wu looked at the broken knife in his hand and frowned.

"Ah... The knife is broken. Does it matter? Will it not be dealt with by military regulations? " Hua Qingxue asked him anxiously.

He Wu seemed a little shy in front of Hua Qingxue. He grinned and said, "it's all right. The sabres in the barracks are often broken. I've been used to it for a long time. I'll take it back and repair it. It can be used again."

Hua Qingxue looked at the still strong pig bones on the chopping board and was a little embarrassed. She whispered, "I have made a new set of knives from blacksmith Liu. They are specially used to cut bones... I'll get them for you."

He Wu nodded.

When Hua Qingxue came back, he really had a brand-new knife in his hand.

He Wu looked at the knife and felt the flash across the edge. It was very eye-catching. He held it in his hand and felt very good.

"This kitchen knife is very good." He Wu couldn't help praising.

Hua Qingxue chuckled, "it's not a kitchen knife, it's a bone chopping knife. The original knife is not easy to use... I have a new set, including slicing knife, bone chopping knife, bone removal knife, peeling knife and vegetable knife..."

Despite her average cooking skills, she is proficient in these utensils.

Hua Qingxue always believes that no matter what you do and prepare a set of good tools, you can improve efficiency and pleasure your body and mind.

For example, she felt that since she had this set of knives, her cooking skills had grown by leaps and bounds compared with her time in Renqiu City.

"Miss Hua is so meticulous, even the kitchen knife is so thin."

He Wu smiled, holding a knife and began to cut bones——

Pop!

The bone on the chopping board broke in two at once.

He Wu was stunned and surprised!

This kind of pounding feeling and sharpness are better than any knife he has used in the military camp before!

He Wu couldn't help but pick up the knife again and look at it carefully.

But no matter what he thinks, it's just an ordinary kitchen knife. Why?

"Blacksmith Liu's craft is getting better and better!" He Wu would not think of Hua Qingxue. He praised again and began to chop bones in his hand.

Originally, he was worried that he would cut down the new kitchen knife, but the more he used the kitchen knife, the more smooth it became! Until all the bones were chopped, he Wu still had some unfinished business, so he took the chicken he had just killed to pluck and wash, and then cut it into pieces!

When the chicken was finished, he Wu simply took a knife and began to compete majestically in the yard——

As soon as aunt he came out, she saw her son practicing in the yard and muttered, "what's crazy? Wave it with a kitchen knife and be careful to chop the clothes pole in my yard..."

Hua Qingxue stood laughing. She vaguely understood why he Wu was like this.

This is also very strange. Although everything in the Qi Dynasty is similar to that in the Song Dynasty, the metal smelting technology is very backward, far less developed than that in the Ancient Song Dynasty.

And many well-known metals in modern times are not mined here, even unknown.

On the first day when Hua Qingxue started cooking, she found that the kitchen knife was very difficult to use. Even if it was sharpened, she could only cut some vegetables and meat, but not a little hard. If she was too strong, the tiger's mouth would be red.

——This is because the carbon content in the knife is too high.

Originally, iron is a very soft metal, which can neither be made into a knife nor cast into a pot. However, when iron contains a certain amount of carbon, it becomes iron often used in daily life, that is, the so-called steel.

The higher the carbon content, the higher the hardness of iron. On the contrary, the lower the carbon content, the lower the hardness of iron.

However, iron is not the higher the hardness, the better. It is purely hardness, but the easier it is to break and damage the edge. Just like the military Sabre used by he Wu just now, although it is sharp, it will be damaged in case of hard objects.

Therefore, the proportion of carbon is very subtle, but it is familiar to huaqingxue.

Her major is the direction of new thermal weapons. She has specially studied the history of ancient cold weapons. The forging technology of metal is as familiar as her old profession.

In ancient times, the best way was to use folding forging to finely beat steel and wrought iron together layer by layer, and use carburizing method. In this way, the knife is not only extremely sharp, but also has a certain toughness. It can definitely be called the boutique of the knife. Few other blades are not cut off when they come into contact with it!

Hua Qingxue also forged in her schoolwork practice, but at that time there were all kinds of modern advanced instruments. She just had to test all the values.

In ancient times, this forging work required great strength, so this set of kitchen knives was forged by blacksmith Liu under the guidance of Hua Qingxue.

Although there is still some gap from the ideal state in Hua Qingxue's heart, it must be nothing to chop a spare ribs at ordinary times.

Hua Qingxue sees he Wu's moves in the yard and thinks that since he likes it so much, he might as well give him one. Anyway, his military Sabre can't be used for the time being.

But this kitchen knife is a little embarrassing to dance

Hua Qingxue turns around and enters the kitchen again. She takes out a sharp pig knife at the front end.

The shape of the pig killing knife is very close to he Wu's military sabre, but it should be shorter.

"Brother he, use this."

He Wu heard Hua Qingxue's voice, stopped and saw the pig knife in her hand. His face was immediately filled with joy.

Although he knew it was inappropriate to take things for nothing, he really liked the knife so much that he immediately took it and held it in his hand without saying a word.

The handle of the knife is in a streamline radian, which coincides with the palm of the hand. The weight of the knife body is light, and it will not be tired for a long time. The blade is sharp and sharp, and there is a long groove at the back of the knife.

"Why did blacksmith Liu get a groove in this place?" He Wu asked strangely.

Hua Qingxue explained: "this is called a blood trough, which can increase the strength of the knife, reduce the weight of the knife, and increase the injured area."

He Wu only thought that Hua Qingxue had heard from blacksmith Liu. Without much thought, he held the pig killing knife in his hand and played with it a few times. He smiled and said, "well, it's really lighter."

There is a saying that it is hard for a thousand gold to buy. He Wu took Hua Qingxue's knife, took a money bag from his arms and handed it to Hua Qingxue, "Miss Hua, I don't know how to thank you. Take the money..."

Hua Qingxue was startled and waved again and again, "I'm sorry to live here. This knife is not worth a few money. You don't have to take it to heart!"

She said that, afraid that he Wu would give her money again, she fled into the kitchen.

He Wu stood in the yard, holding a pig killing knife in his hand, feeling sweet in his heart
