It's been more than a month since I came to this world, although I was running around in the mountains for a while, and I have been nesting in the small place of Qingshan Town for the rest of my life.

But it does not prevent Lin Ziran from understanding the world more and more.

Through the memory of the original body, coupled with Lin Ziran's observations and books during this time, it is enough for Lin Ziran to make a clearer judgment of this world.

The world as a whole is similar to the earth, but the level of science and technology is still at the level of the earth's first industrial revolution.

According to Lin Ziran's judgment based on some small details of contemporary things and industry, the scientific level of this world should be comparable to that of the early and mid-nineteenth century on the earth.

This is evident in the Fuyuan musket, which uses a fire cap to fire, maroon powder, and almost every musket has parts of the same size, which can be used interchangeably with each other.

Many factories and even workshops have used steam engines as power on a large scale, and even steam ships have appeared.

Such a world also means that a rudimentary industrial system has actually been established.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Boss Wang to help Lin Ziran change the smoothbore gun to a rifled gun.

It is because although Boss Wang's workshop seems to be only a small-scale workshop, it is also a workshop with the level of the mid-nineteenth century.

This also means that if Lin Ziran finds a suitable opportunity, he can rely on the existing industrial system to further develop.

Oil, for example!

Oil, in fact, is not a new thing in this world, people generally call it fire oil, and they also know that this black thing can burn, and even some people have long put fire oil into war: put it in a can, light it and throw it out, and use it as a burning can.

In addition, in ancient times, some people poured oil directly into the moat, and when the enemy attacked the city, it ignited, and the moat instantly turned into a wall of fire.

However, although this thing has been around for a long time, so far, no one has discovered the mystery of oil.

At least, Lin Ziran has not heard any similar words in the oil industry in the past month or month, whether he has seen or heard or read books.

It means opportunity, an opportunity to make a lot of money.

Luo Mazi's work efficiency is still very high, and soon the villagers who sell fire oil are found, although he likes to brag about everything on weekdays, and his speech seems to be out of tune, but he is still quite reliable when doing things.

Otherwise, Lin Ziran would not have continued to reuse him for more than a month, so that he would continue to maintain the honorary title of the first confidant dog leg.

A person who knows how to compliment his boss is a talent.

People who know how to compliment their bosses and do things well, that is the talent of talents!

In Lin Ziran's view, Luo Mazi is such a talent.

If Luo Mazi's touting level was a little higher on weekdays, Lin Ziran felt that it would be even better.

It's a pity that Luo Mazi has not studied enough in this area, and needs to continue to strengthen the business level.

The villagers who were found by Luo Mazi seemed to have been frightened for a long time, so much so that their legs were trembling when they saw Lin Ziran.

Seeing this scene, Lin Ziran was a little speechless.

Lao Tzu is no longer a bandit leader, okay, can you be as frightened as you are when you see a bandit leader?

But speechless is speechless, and things still have to be done, so Lin Ziran asked, "Where did you get these oil oils?" ”

When the villager heard this, he immediately collapsed on the ground with his feet weak, and then said: "My lord's life, my lord's life!" ”

Lin Ziran was even more speechless, just asking for something, you are afraid of a fart.

Luo Mazi on the side obviously saw Lin Ziran's displeasure, and immediately said sharply: "If you ask something, answer quickly, don't say what you have!" ”

After Luo Mazi shouted like this, the villagers seemed to be frightened, and then said, "This fire oil...... This oil ......"

Lin Ziran saw that this person was talking hesitantly, and it was estimated that there were some problems, but Lin Ziran was too lazy to care about this, and asked directly: "Say!" ”

Luo Mazi took a sentence: "Say it quickly!" ”

It took me a long time before the villager replied that he had brought it from a small black pond.

Then when he asked where the pond was, Lin Ziran knew why he was hesitant and so frightened, because the place where the pond was located was where an official field was.

This man probably thought that he had stolen the oil from the official field, so he brought it over.

Lin Ziran was a little speechless, you stole the oil in the official field, it's his business!

Next, don't talk nonsense, just ask him to lead the way, Lin Ziran wants to go to that black little pond to take a look.

Although he hasn't seen it with his own eyes, Lin Ziran already has a guess, and if nothing else, it should be an oil seedling.

Since the oil seedlings have appeared, there must be an oil field nearby, and it is difficult to say what the reserves are, but there must be oil.

After taking dozens of people out of the city, they walked about five kilometers south to the black pond in the villagers' mouths.

It was a small pond estimated to be about ten meters in diameter, and there was no water in it, only black oil, and there was no doubt that it was an oil seedling.

Although he had already guessed in his heart, after seeing this oil seedling, Lin Ziran still couldn't help but show joy.

"Good!" After Lin Ziran said good, he turned to Luo Mazi and said, "Let someone pick a load of fire oil and go back!" ”

Now that he has found oil, the next thing Lin Ziran has to do is to find a way to refine kerosene from this oil.

First pick a load of oil back to do experiments, and then start to customize refining equipment or something, as long as the refining is successful, then you can try large-scale exploitation.

Back in Qingshan Town, Lin Ziran casually found an empty room, and then asked Luo Mazi to bring a lot of glass bottles and other test equipment, and then did the test himself.

Since he Lin Ziran plans to engage in this kerosene, he naturally has confidence.

In college, a chemical engineering girl who lived with him played with all kinds of experiments when she was idle, and he occasionally ran to help with the tricks or something, so that she could quickly finish the test and turn off the lights and sleep, during which the oil distillation was also played.

While thinking about the younger sister, while doing experiments, the senior sister looked good, which left a deep memory on Lin Ziran, but there were too many memories, which made Lin Ziran sigh!

Sometimes the school girl dresses too improperly, so that when Lin Ziran recalls it now, some indecent scenes are always easy to appear in his mind, which then messes up Lin Ziran's heart to study science.

Scientific research requires concentration and calmness, but the senior sister just made him calm down!

Alas!

It's all to blame on the schoolgirl!

After tossing for a long time, Lin Ziran was completely dead and walked out of the temporary laboratory with a depressed face.

It is important to note that it's not that Lin Ziran can't get it, it's just kerosene, it's a little meaning!

As someone who has never seen a pig run but has eaten pork, this little problem is not a problem at all.

The question is, these instruments at hand are too rudimentary, can such a rudimentary instrument do experiments?

No!
