Chapter 47: Refining Alcohol

Do you have to get the alcohol out?

Qin Lu had a headache, he roughly knew that he had read some novels about perfume making, although the specific process was not clear, but there was indeed an ingredient in it that was alcohol. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Qin Lu wasn't sure if his successive failures were related to the lack of alcohol, but at present, he had no other way.

"It's been a big circle, and the result is still to start from scratch, alas......"

While lamenting the impermanence of fate, Qin Lu also really ignited a bit of fighting spirit.

Traveling to the dream world for so many days, this is one of the few predicaments he has, Qin Lu is very confident, if he can overcome this difficulty, then what he will bring next is probably not as simple as a few taels of silver.

"Baozhen, you go and call Uncle Lin over, I'll find him something to do."

After explaining to Qin Baozhen, Qin Lu took out a pen and paper again, and drew a round vessel on it, like a gas canister.

It is almost impossible to refine pure alcohol, and without the help of modern machines, Qin Lu can only improve the purity of the wine as much as possible, reaching a level similar to that of alcohol.

And the piece of paper in his hand is the key to distilling alcohol!

When Qin Baozhen found Uncle Lin, he was doing carpentry with two subordinates, and when he heard that Qin Lu was looking for him, he immediately put down his work and followed Baozhen to the inner courtyard.

Qin Lu handed over the drawings to Uncle Lin and asked him to go to the blacksmith shop to order a bronze of the same size according to the drawings above.

It took a while to wait, and the thing Qin Lu painted was obviously not a regular bronze object, and there was no suitable mold at the blacksmith shop, so he had to start from scratch. By the time it arrived, it was already two weeks later.

But judging by the results, the wait is quite effective. The owner of the weapon shop in Jianye City had very good skills, and although Qin Lu's painting was very ugly, he still made what he wanted.

It was a distiller, the main structure is divided into two parts, the upper part is with a ring, and there is a small groove cast on the ring, and there is a drainage tube at the bottom of the tank to communicate with the outside world.

During distillation, because the boiling point of alcohol and water is different, the liquor gas will condense on the distiller, flow downward, and finally converge in the tank, and flow down the drainage pipe to the outside of the still, so as to play the role of distillation.

The boiling point of alcohol is about 80 degrees, and the boiling point of water is 100 degrees, Qin Lu can't accurately control the temperature between the two, but there is no doubt that the purity of alcohol can at least rise by dozens of percentage points on the existing basis.

The people in the family were full of curiosity about what Qin Lu was about to do, and when the still was placed in the courtyard, almost everyone gathered over to see the big guy.

Of course, not surprisingly, the master and servant of the Cheng family are also among them.

Qin Lu admired the ability of the two to adjust their mentality, and just when Qin Lu was still a little embarrassed when he looked at them, the two of them had completely recovered to their original state, as if everything that happened in the garden that afternoon was a phantom.

Cheng Susu is as quiet and generous as ever, looking like a perfect lady. However, after seeing the terrifying picture of the demon god that day, Qin Lu could no longer look at her normally.

Gary still goes her own way, not caring about face or anything like that. And Qin Lu suddenly discovered something that made him hurt a lot, probably because he felt that the relationship was already very good, this guy with the word law in his name, representing fairness and justice, completely exposed his true colors to him.

"Tsk...... You don't think it's ...... Doesn't it look like an XX? ”

Cheng Xiaoshao crossed her hands on her hips, her long tail swayed behind her, and she said something expressionless that made Qin Lu blush when she heard it, "Oh my God, I don't even have eyes, what do you want to do with this pervert?" ”

I don't see you're still standing here......

Qin Lu wanted to complain, but she endured it. The next work is very important, so he doesn't want to waste his tongue with this faceless guy.

"Uncle Lin, what do I want?"

Seeing that everything was almost ready, Qin Lu beckoned to Uncle Lin, who was standing aside.

"It's all here, I bought three jars, it should be enough."

Uncle Lin commanded his subordinates and brought over three wine cans the size of a basketball. Qin Lu tore off the sealing paint on it and poured all the liquor into the stills in one go.

Strictly speaking, the wines in this world are all low-alcohol wines, because of the lack of distillation methods, winemakers generally use fermentation methods, and yeast will not continue to ferment when it is about twenty degrees, so Qin Lu can basically judge that these things are only twenty degrees at most.

The distillation process was very exciting, and it didn't take long for the drain to start to run low in the drain, stimulated by the flames. Qin Lu hurriedly put the prepared porcelain jar underneath. At first, it was just ticking, but after a while, the water droplets gathered into a column of water and began to collect in large quantities into the porcelain jar.

Seeing this, Qin Lu removed some of the wood and wanted to lower the temperature a little.

But Rao was so, the distillation speed was still very fast, and it didn't take long for a strong aroma of wine to appear in the courtyard.

"It smells so good! How did you do that? ”

Because of family reasons, Cheng Susu is very sensitive to things like alcohol, and the strange containers made by Qin Lu are obviously a little beyond her imagination, obviously they are only some cheap spirits, but just add fire to bake, and the wine becomes so strong, it is like a trick.

The temperature of the distillation continued to rise, and Qin Lu knew that if it continued, the water would also evaporate, so when he estimated that it was almost enough, Qin Lu removed the porcelain jar.

"Do you like wine?" Pouring a small shallow bowl of wine in a porcelain jar, Qin Lu handed it to Cheng Susu, "Do you want to taste it, this is the world's first bowl of distilled spirit!" ”

It's scary enough to smell, how dare Cheng Susu taste it, "Don't, it feels weird, it seems to be a little pungent!" ”

"I'm coming!"

Cheng Xiaoxiao looked interesting, and hurriedly came to Qin Lu's side, "Isn't it just a bowl of wine, I'll drink it for you!" ”

After that, regardless of whether Qin Lu agreed or not, he directly grabbed the wine bowl and swallowed it in one gulp.

"Poof!"

In the next second, the sky was full of white fog.

"Ahem! This...... What is this......"

Cheng Xiaoshao's tears were choked out, her pretty face was flushed, and she couldn't stop coughing, "Ahem...... Spicy, spicy to me! Ahem......"

Fucking thief......

Lao Tzu has a saying that mom sells batches, you must talk about it!

Qin Lu has been petrified.

Seeing her heroic movements, Qin Lu really thought that Cheng Xiaoshao was a veteran in wine, but unexpectedly, this guy was a scumbag at all, standing opposite and being sprayed by her, he was really full of face.
