Chapter 42: I miss the days of picking soap

"Ten gold coins !? Are you sure !?"
During dinner, Fiona learned the news from Down, and was not surprised by the surprise.
You should know that there are thirteen little girls who don't understand anything. After simple training by Tang En, they can already create the value of ten gold coins in one day. If more people are trained?
There is basically no difficulty in this work!
If the mint planting industry is launched in Ellington in the future, after the expansion, it is equivalent to everyone creating the same value. Then, how much will the output value of the entire Ellington be in a day? One thousand gold coins? Ten thousand gold coins! ?
This is a topic that I dare not imagine!
"Sure, my friend, I don't have to lie to you."
Tang En smiled very stubbornly, and seemed to be waiting for Fiona to praise him.
Fiona ignored Don once again and said a little eagerly: "Can we expand the scale !?"
Ellington's people are eager for something that can divert their attention, and this is a good choice.
"Dear Fiona," Tang En frowned. "You have given me a problem."
"what happened?"
"Although there is no problem in production, have you considered the market?"
Tang En asked Fiona: "The mints produced are not good in the local market in Ellington. As long as the goods are shipped out, they will only be sold in Yalinks and other towns. Only when you go out can you generate value, and it will only slowly mold in the warehouse! "
"I'm already thinking of a solution to this problem."
Fiona said earnestly: "I have already written the letter and sent it out in the afternoon. The fastest result will be within a week."
"Hope someone you trust can come, otherwise I can only think of another way."
Tang En sighed, and the conversation ended.
That night, Tang En didn't sleep well, because tomorrow will start to make the waterwheel. He must get out the structure of the waterwheel before tomorrow. Even the key bearings and still need to be made by him. .
At the level of Edgar and Blaine, it is very difficult to create usable bearings and balls. It is well known that such components have a little failure, and the degree of wear will double. If the waterwheel is not available, It collapsed in a few days, but that was hitting his own face.
If you want to solve the drought problem as soon as possible, it's actually very simple. Tang En can rain as long as he casts it, but it can be done once and for all, does he have to cast rain repeatedly? Moreover, Ellington's territory is so large, and there are other small towns far away. He can't run one by one, right?
Therefore, promoting the waterwheel is the easiest way.
"The structure of the waterwheel ... um ..."
Tang En was sitting on the bed and meditating, and several iron ingots floated in front of him constantly changing the shape. For many people on earth, the waterwheel is a very distant thing, even many people have never seen it, and Tang En This is the case, but Tang En knows the principle, and uses the thrust of the water to rotate, and then the movable bucket is filled with water and is raised to the high place. After passing the critical point, it rolls over and pours out the water. Just have a stand and pipes to direct the water elsewhere.
The principle is very simple, after Tang En only simulated it in his mind a few times, he roughly understood the structure of the waterwheel, and then he began to be busy ...
the next day.
"Hahaha, let me just say, in two days, I can easily get the task done."
Brian laughed and greeted Tangn: "Come and see, these things are all done and the quality is decent. I have to say that the punching machine, cutting machine and sander you made are really good!"
Bryan was clearly conquered by those three machines. With the help of these three machines, the forging work became extremely easy.
Tang En took a random check and nodded in satisfaction: "Let Edgar be ready. Fiona has already sent someone to distribute the subsidy coupons. It is estimated that someone will come to collect the tools soon."
"Voucher? What's that?"
"Instead of physical gold coins, you can get a set of metal farming tools with a subsidy voucher, and then Edgar uses the subsidy voucher to settle the payment with the main government and Fiona."
This was a subsidy policy that Tang En decided for a long time. He originally planned to issue gold coins directly, but was rejected by Fiona.
The reason is that it is easy to cause imbalance in some people, and it is easy to breed vicious events.
The replacement of subsidy coupons is not the same. The subsidy coupons are not gold coins and can only be used to exchange agricultural tools. Even if they are robbed, they are useless, and those farmers will be much safer.
As Tang En expected, before noon, there were already farmers holding coupons to collect metal farm tools.
And the first farmer who came is obviously a little bit unbelievable that there will be such a good thing, holding the subsidy coupons is a bit embarrassing, I am afraid that Edgar will treat him as a liar.
"This is your set of farm tools. Take it. Go back and find a piece of wood and cut it into a handle. Then you can use it."
Edgar Mari handed a set of iron farm tools to the farmer, and then put away the subsidy coupon.
The farmer was stunned immediately.
It's true! ?
With what kind of subsidy coupon, you can really change a set of metal farm tools! ?
"Long live Lord Lord! Thank you Lord Lord for your gift!"
At this moment, the farmer thanked Tang En from the bottom of his heart and deeply thanked him for his gift.
The reactions of the farmers who followed them were similar. Thanks to Dade for receiving the metal farming tools, all of them thanked the Lord Lord for the gift, which shows how excited they are.
Brian, who was hiding behind the house, bumped into Dunn's thigh: "Big brother, how does it feel appreciated?"
"Okay."
Tang En wondered, but with a faint smile on his face.
"Humans are really hypocritical, and they are almost getting to the ears," said Brian, rubbing his hands. "Brother, do you have any Aujin ingots?"
"Yes, but what do you want?"
"Hey, I want to make a few more Aujin ingots and create an Aujin axe."
Brian laughed aloud: "Think about it. You have encountered the enemy and have not yet started a war. With a bright weapon, Jin Chancan's auspicious axe can blind the enemy's dog eyes. Where is the enemy? Ah, this is called victory without a fight. "
"Let's save you, it's more likely to be taken away than to win without a fight."
Tang En's speechless face, want to show off rich? With your two-handed Warhammer, isn't it better than Aujin?
But speaking, it seems that the sale of the two-handed Warhammer is really worse ...
"Big brother, can't you say that! Don't you underestimate my fighting power! Let me tell you, as far as you are concerned, I can fight five with one!"
Down looked up and down Brian: "Are you sure?"
Bryan smiled proudly: "Of course! Let's break your wrists if you don't believe me! I'll let you four fingers!"
Down glanced at Brian's hand and shook his head: "Not interested."
"Why are you so disappointed! I say you--"
"Don't talk nonsense. Edgar is selling farm tools. Don't be idle."
Tang En threw the structure diagram of the waterwheel to Brian: "This is the structure diagram of the waterwheel. You look at it first, if you have any questions, you can start working. I have already made important parts. Only You need to figure out the skeleton, part of which is the wood you use. Carpenter's work, go to the carpenter to solve it, can you get it before night? "
Brian glanced and patted his chest, "No problem! Proper!"
"Very well, I'll leave this part to you. I'll take a step first. If I can, I hope it can be assembled tomorrow."
Tang En patted his and returned to the lord's palace.
The stamping machine, cutting machine, sander, and metal farm tools are all done. The mint factory has also begun to take shape. If you want to develop further, you need to rebuild and build a factory building. The most important thing is that you need To open the business road, this requires a caravan to solve.
The composition of the caravan, according to Fiona's news, also takes at least a week. During this period, Tang En can do not much.
Tang En was very eager to get the toothpaste, but the specific ingredients of the toothpaste were not clear to him. Even if he knew that there was no chemical factory to help him refine it, so he could only substitute salt for the time being.
Rather than toothpaste, soap is easier to get out. After the soap is refined and filtered, mint oil is added to make mint soap. It will be much more comfortable when you take a bath.
When you think about it, Tang En feels refreshed and summons Tina.
After listening to Tang En's request, Tina was a little dumbfounded, but according to his request, he prepared a lot of fat left for refining and a large package of salt.
The smell of making soap was so strong that Tang En didn't want to continue studying in the bedroom. He picked up the fat and slipped into an empty storeroom.
The original form of soap is the reaction between fat and plant ash heating in water, and the essence of this reaction is actually the saponification reaction between oil and alkali, and plant ash plays the role of alkali.
However, Tang En does not plan to use plant ash now, the soap made in that way is too ugly, he intends to go directly to the advanced method-electrolytic saturated saline solution.
A very simple chemical reaction, electrolysis of saturated brine to get hydrogen, hydrogen, and most importantly, the sodium hydroxide melt!
With sodium hydroxide solution, who still uses low-grade goods such as plant ash. [e1]
If it ’s someone else, even if you know this equation, it wo n’t work. After all, there is no civilian electricity in this world, but who is Tang En?
A powerful mage ...
Playing with lightning, not applauding?
"Zizi ..."
After making a large pot of saturated salt water, Tang En burst out of electric light, and a very stable high-voltage electric arc directly penetrated into the pot. Soon, the salt water began to murmur and bubbling, and it appeared in the air. An unpleasant CL2 smell ...
In fact, Tang En wants to collect CL2 too. This thing is quite useful and can be used for bleaching. However, there is no special container now. Plan later.
