Chapter 17: Zhu Gaoxu's Ambition (Seeking New Book Investment)
There's a problem with the last step.
Because of the caustic soda in the material, it is not possible to use containers made of aluminum, copper, iron and polyethylene, and it is better to use glass and stainless steel containers.
Stainless steel doesn't think about it.
No!
I can get it out, but Dusk doesn't want to do it for a while.
There are glass containers, but the glass basin Xu Miaojin took is really small, so he can only make a small batch first, and it is also an experiment, in case it fails, the material can be used to make it next time.
And there are no molds yet.
If you don't have money, you can't hire a craftsman, so you can only figure it out by yourself.
Dusk thought of an idea.
Wooden box!
After making a large amount of distilled water, Dusk went to find a few discarded wooden boards, divided them by two and a while, and polished and waxed to make five boxes ten centimeters long and eight centimeters wide.
Make it first, then shape it by hand.
Wasted materials......
There is no waste, and this batch of products has not been sold for money at all.
Because there was no measuring cylinder, I had to use a teacup instead, and I could add it according to the proportion, and asked Wu Hebi to go to the neighbor of Fangzi to borrow a small measurement scale, and weigh the lard, caustic soda, and water.
Everything is ready to go.
Slowly add 100 grams of water to the glass basin and pour 60 grams of caustic soda.
Stir carefully.
Caustic soda melts into water to produce foam that releases a lot of heat.
Dusk doesn't want to be blind.
After the caustic soda is completely dissolved, the solution is colorless and transparent, and the heat is no longer dissipated, slowly pour the weighed one and a half pounds of solidified lard into the glass basin, and stir while pouring.
For about fifteen minutes, pour the same amount of wine into it.
While continuing to stir, pour in the lotus oil.
This can be more or less.
The first time I do it, I plan to put a little more at dusk, so that there is a strong fragrance of lotus flowers.
When stirred slowly, the solution has gradually become viscous.
White with yellow, and a little crystalline.
It was then carefully poured into five mold boxes – out of the spread pool, five molds were not full, only four were filled.
Failure is success, so don't worry about the details.
After pouring it into the mold box, I found a piece of waste cloth that I didn't use, covered it up to avoid dust particles from getting contaminated with it, and put it on the edge of the steps, not daring to move.
Succeed with flying colors.
The next thing is to wait, and when it is completely formed, there will be soap in the modern sense for the first time tomorrow!
Daming has soap balls and bath beans, but the effect is ridiculously low.
Wealthy people will also add various spices to the soap ball, but how can it be compared with soap, not to mention that they also add wine to it, which has an excellent effect on skin care.
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, modern soap entered the country, and immediately defeated the traditional soap balls and bath beans, becoming the popular "foreign pancreas".
Wait until the market is opened, and then go research on shower gel.
What is the best money to make?
Money for women and children.
I don't have the technology to make milk powder now, and the milk powder market has not yet been developed, so I have to start from women temporarily.
That's the market!
Market demand determines productivity.
Four bars of soap to get rich?
Of course not.
Dusk didn't plan to sell these four pieces of soap, but wanted to use it to get a return beyond its value, so this matter is inseparable from Xu Miaojin, and she has to continue to deal with her if she has nothing to do.
Snatch your wife, you have to be attentive.
……
……
Zhu Di ascended the throne, abolished the Jianwen era, and changed the fourth year of Jianwen to the thirty-fifth year of Hongwu.
He was named Yongle.
The turmoil between the DPRK and China subsided, but secretly there were ups and downs.
The enthronement edict was written by Xie Jin.
There are more than 2,000 words, and there is a sentence in the edict: "The heavenly position cannot be empty for a long time, and the artifact cannot be ownerless. ”
made a good cover for Zhu Di.
Zhu Di written in this edict is physically and mentally refreshed, and he treats his views on the outside.
Before the edict was written, Xie Jin was waiting for the edict.
After writing the edict, he was promoted to the rank of Hanlin attendant, and the official was seven grades.
Upgrade four levels in a row.
Xie Jin, a scholar who understands current affairs, is about to enter the most glorious period of his life, and will eventually become famous through the ages - of course, this is without mentioning the stain of "galloping" Zhu Di's horse head.
It just happened to form a reflection with Fang Xiaoru.
In fact, Fang Xiaoru and Xie Jin, who is right and who is wrong, Qingshi has its own conclusion.
Is Fang Xiaoru wrong?
That's right.
He retained the backbone of the scholar and kept his integrity.
Is Xie Jin wrong?
That's right.
He at least did a great contribution to future generations of scholars in the Yongle Dynasty.
Also soaring is Hu Guang, who is called to come, and was promoted to a waiter.
Because the soap still needs to wait.
At dusk, he followed Wu and Bi to read books all day long.
The main thing is literacy.
Fortunately, there is a simplified Chinese for reference, which is not as difficult as learning a foreign language, but those complex traditional Chinese characters still make the twilight painful, and finally made up my mind that I must get the Chinese Pinyin out and make a whole Xinhua dictionary.
A few days after Zhu Di ascended the throne, the imperial court finally paid his salary.
But it can only ensure food and clothing for the three people.
Wu Pu didn't have any complaints about this, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with eating and drinking so much at dusk, and at the same time, he was also a part-time teacher of the Four Books and Five Classics at dusk, and Wu Youbi was in charge of the enlightenment course.
The days are dull.
Dusk is very satisfied with this, and the traverser also needs to develop time and space.
However, the trees want to be quiet, and the wind does not stop.
In the evening, a man came.
Man.
This is nonsense.
However, this person really surprised Dusk, and almost thought that he had seen Zhu Di when he was young.
Twenty-three or four-year-old, strong and majestic, because of the perennial galloping field, the skin is slightly rough and wheat-colored, extremely athletic and healthy, with thick eyebrows and a straight nose, deep and bright eyes.
Extraordinary!
You don't have to think about it to know who it is.
In the future, he will perform a thrilling battle with Mingrenzong Zhu Gaochi for the prince, and repeatedly pressed Zhu Gaochi to the brink of despair, but he himself became the king of Han Zhu Gaochu.
It's not the Han King yet.
This style is extremely tough, very much Zhu Di's demeanor, and the appearance is similar, so Zhu Di has always been more popular than Zhu Gaochi, and is very popular with military generals.
Everyone is a person who has shared ups and downs on the battlefield, and only when a military general ascends the throne can he have a common language.
How did he get here?
Twilight chuckled in her heart, this is not within my foresight.
Zhu Gaochi was dressed in civilian clothes, alone.
When I came to see dusk today, I didn't dare to let others know, so I came at the beginning of the night, before the night ban began, so as not to be known by my father and suspect that he had two hearts.
Walking into the courtyard, I saw Dusk and Wu Youbi who went out to check the situation, groaned slightly, and said with a smile: "Who is Dusk?" ”
Dusk took a step forward and bent down to salute, "Your Highness has something?" ”
Zhu Gaoxu was surprised and returned the salute, "Do you know me?" ”
Dusk smiled, "You don't need to know, just the appearance of Your Highness's wisdom and martial arts, as long as you have seen Your Majesty, you can guess your identity, but I don't know what Your Highness means here." ”
Zhu Gaoxu hesitated.
You can't always ask Dusk when you meet, since you are a traverser and have a predictability comparable to pushing back pictures, can you tell me whether the old man of my family will hand over the country to that waste man Zhu Gaochi or to me Zhu Gaoxu.
