After many rounds of training, these salt officials finally became familiar with the method of making salt.

Jushou and Tian Feng looked at each other, and then began to discuss in whispers with Zhao Yun.

Liu Chen could guess that they definitely wanted to monitor every move of the salt official and prevent the salt production method from being spread privately.

Looking at the excess materials on the ground, Liu Chen simply made"soap".

Everyone was shocked when they heard that Liu Chen wanted to make decontamination detergents!

They really couldn't figure out what was in Liu Chen's brain and why there were so many fantastic ideas.

And each one is achievable and has great significance to reality!

The clerk on the side quickly followed Liu Chen's instructions and took the ashes after burning wood and weeds. This is plant ashes.

Then add twice as much water and stir. Filter the precipitate to get the mixed liquid, which is lye!

The higher the concentration of lye, the better the subsequent saponification reaction. Therefore, the alkali concentration is increased by heating the alkali solution to remove water.

There is a very simple way to judge, which is to use the egg floating method. The higher the concentration, the higher the float.

Next, we need to use animal fat for saponification reaction. Naturally, we choose the cheapest and most convenient lard.

After both sides are heated, mix and stir until the final saponification reaction is completed. As long as it becomes very viscous, it is complete.

Then make a mold, pour the cooked soap liquid into the container, wait until it cools, take it out, let it sit for a while, and the soap is complete.

"You can also add sesame oil, honey, etc. to turn the soap into scented soap."

Liu Chen said to the official in charge of the forging institute:"Remember, the lye concentrated from plant ash cannot be stored in ironware. It must be placed in ceramics or glass.……"

Just when he said this, Liu Chen suddenly remembered that he hadn't fired the glass yet.

"Your Highness, what is glass?"As expected, the official in charge of the forging institute asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Jushou and Tian Feng beside them frowned in deep thought, still puzzled!

"Is it Liuli?"

Jushou and Tian Feng came to their senses and looked at Liu Chen doubtfully and asked.

"Similar to colored glaze, but colored glaze will crack and explode when exposed to hot water. But the glass I mentioned can be used as a eating vessel and can withstand high temperatures."

Liu Chen's words opened everyone's eyes and shocked them!

Their faces were full of expectations!

The eyes that looked at Liu Chen were even more admiring and wonderful!

However, in Liu Chen's view, glass is just a food container. One of the functions, there are many other functions.

Door and window glass, glass mirrors, glass greenhouses, etc.

The most terrifying thing is that telescopes and other war weapons can be made of glass!

"Your Highness, how is glass fired?"The Forging Institute official asked with a surprised look on his face.

Liu Chen smiled and said:

"I will write you the firing method in a while.

"Let’s talk about soap first. When lard and lye were mixed just now, the saponification reaction was very difficult and required vigorous stirring.

"If alcohol can be added, the dissolution speed can be increased……"

While talking, Liu Chen suddenly remembered, could the rice wine of this era be considered wine?

It seems that we have to find time to distill high-strength liquor.

Alcohol requires a lot of grain, and distilled liquor requires even more grain. Originally Liu Chen didn't have such a big deal, but now he has no worries.

With alcohol, it can be disinfected and sterilized. Low-alcohol alcohol can even reduce fever and fever, and its application in medicine has become more extensive.

There are various other applications, and high-strength wine has a wide range of uses.

And it can also be used to make"perfume", which will also be a huge source of business and a lot of money!

After everything was said, Liu Chen asked:"Do you understand?"

"Got it, got it! His Highness is so talented and knowledgeable that his subordinates admire him greatly. His concise and concise explanations can be clearly understood even by illiterate people!"

The official of the forging institute flattered him again.

Everyone agreed!

They are not flatterers, but Liu Chen invented the"salt making method", which can be said to make the people of Changshan have no shortage of salt.

And they can also make salt. Price reduction can be said to benefit the country and the people

"The invention of"soap" has perfectly enhanced people's washing products. This is also a feat that benefits all people!

"After the salt and soap are produced, they can be sold, which can also add some income to Changshan's finances."

The sweet potatoes, potatoes, horseshoes, stirrups and other items mentioned some time ago are all military secrets, and Liu Chen will not spread them in the short term.

It is not that Liu Chen is selfish, but that the war will begin in the future. If they are spread, they will not be given to the enemy. Increase strength?!

"Yes, I obey!"Jushou and Tian Feng bowed their hands and saluted.

Liu Chen continued to give instructions:

"Don’t set the price of table salt too high. Just make it cheaper than the previous coarse salt. This will allow us to quickly seize the market.

"Soap requires lard, which is a bit expensive. It can be a little more expensive, but there is a discount for the people of Changshan."

"Yes, I understand!"The two handed over their hands again.

After all the instructions were finished and the soap had completely cooled down, Liu Chen picked up a piece of scrub and easily washed away the cement and other dirt on his hands.

Looking at Liu Chen's green-white fingers, Ju Shou, Tian Feng and Zhao Yun and others were shocked again!

I didn't expect that"soap" is so powerful in cleaning. It will be an extremely important daily necessities!

"After mass production, Changshan officials, soldiers in the military camp, doctors at the medical school, and children's teachers at the school all gave away a batch of them for free."

"yes"

"By the way, remember to send a pound of refined salt to the Yuan family for me, and send someone to visit in person. I must thank you very much.’、‘Thanks 'em!"

"Yes, I obey!"

The expressions on everyone's faces became a bit joking!

I wonder what the Yuan family will think after seeing these snow-white fine salts?

They control Changshan's material exchange and want to use this to blackmail King Changshan.

It's a pity that this The wishful thinking has come to nothing!

Not only that, Liu Chen's high-quality refined salt will be sent across the country at a lower price to seize the market.

Those wealthy families will probably cry to death, right?

Even though salt and iron are all government-run, in fact they are all The control lies in the hands of these wealthy families. Liu Chen's game can be regarded as a severe blow to them!
