Chapter 43: The Most Failed Inventor in History (Part I)
Su Yang'er ordered the little girl with black hands to wash the charcoal, the purpose of which was naturally to make a filter, and use the washed charcoal to achieve some effects of activated carbon, which has adsorption power, and this is also what she saw from the novel.
Whether it really works, and how effective it is, only the devil knows.
As for what kind of things can be made from this mess of raw material substitutes, only the devil knows.
Su Yang'er is eager to imitate the protagonists in the time-traveling novel to become Nobel, but she forgets how Nobel died.
When I saw the two little guys washing the sand, stone, and carbon, they couldn't wait to let them layer into the altar, and used wood chips to break the cotton cloth and spread it on it, in order to achieve the effect of the asbestos net, Yang Bao and others felt distressed when they saw it, the most expensive of these things is cotton cloth, these two feet of cloth, but it cost him nearly 300 Wen.
"Yang Bao, let's boil the lard."
"Do you really want to cook?"
Yang Bao hesitated a little, he knew that this was not a joke, it was said that many people who ran soap group workshops outside were often injured, and there were many people who died due to various accidents, and the chef was often very sensitive to these things such as fire oil, what worried him was not whether Su Yang'er's inexplicable ghost things could be made, what he was worried about was whether these ghost things would cause fire.
"Little lady, this is a game, you have to stand far away and tell me on the side."
Yang Bao is obviously a doer, otherwise it would not be possible to go out to seek a teacher in his teens, after the instructions, he set up the stove, boiled the lard, the lard cubes quickly began to melt in the pot, Yang Bao controlled the heat under the stove, and was several times more careful than the usual stir-frying.
Up to this point, everything was still the same as Su Yang'er imagined.
Then she commanded, "Go and get a basin and draw some water, and pour quicklime into it." ”
The little servant responded to the call, took a basin of water, and poured a small packet of quicklime into it.
"That's it?" When Su Yang'er saw it, she panicked, this was different from what she imagined, the amount of quicklime was too small, and it did not produce the effect she wanted after pouring it into the water, and the lime slurry produced was very thin.
Yang Bao complained when he heard this: "Little lady, it's great to be able to buy this small bag, unless the yamen approves someone to build a house, I can still borrow a little more for you, but where can I find it for you at this time?" ”
"Do you need the approval of the yamen to build a house?"
Su Yang'er obviously didn't expect that the urban planning was already in place at this time, and for now, it was also illegal for her to produce soap balls here without permission, but the execution in ancient times was not so strong, and small-batch experiments would not take her seriously.
At this time, the lard had completely melted, Yang Bao hurriedly retracted his voice, got up and stirred, in fact, at the moment, he also felt that this kind of child-like approach was quite interesting, anyway, he was just playing with Su Yang'er.
"What's next?"
Su Yang'er looked at the lime slurry and fell into deep thought, because she was missing one thing, baking soda.
Baking soda is added to lime slurry to produce sodium hydroxide, also known as caustic soda, which is an extremely critical step.
Edible baking soda is a baking product, which is impossible in this era, its main ingredient is sodium bicarbonate, that is, baking soda powder used to make dough in later generations, if you want to make it, you must put sodium bicarbonate into sodium carbonate by measuring carbon dioxide, which means that electrolysis and gas are taken.
Either technology, it takes a long time to develop the front-end technology.
Later novels are often brushed aside at this stage, either with baking soda powder for some reason, or with soil containing potassium carbonate instead, which does not work in principle, but she can only try hard.
"Soak the ashes in the jar, and you blow on the bamboo pipe!"
"Blowing?" Yang Bao was stunned when he heard this.
Xiao Ling said worriedly: "Little lady, forget it, it's so dirty." ”
"Blow!"
Yang Bao couldn't resist Su Yang'er, so he had to muster up his courage, hugged the jar and blew it, and immediately drank a sip of gray water.
He blushed in shock and went back to his face.
At this time, Su Yang'er hurriedly said: "Pour them into the lime water!" ”
Yang Bao was amnesty, and hurriedly moved his mouth, and the ash water of the plants and trees flowed into the lime water basin along the bamboo pipe.
Under Su Yang'er's expectant gaze, sure enough, there was no reaction!
"I... I..."Su Yang'er's breathing began to become rapid, and she had begun to lose her mind.
Her actions are obviously contrary to chemical common sense, but she is still not convinced.
"Pour them all into the pan!"
At this point, Yang Bao hurriedly threw the gray water into the pot under her chaotic command.
"Throw the rouge into the box for me!"
"Smack." The rouge box entered in response, and Yang Bao was helpless.
But I saw that the oil pot began to boil, and the originally clear and yellow lard turned into a pot of black and disgusting sticky matter under the input of this pile of miscellaneous things, and because the fire was too big, there was a faint tendency to splash.
Seeing this, Yang Bao hurriedly rushed forward, extinguished the fire and looked back: "Little lady, forget it..."
Su Yang'er was already crying at this time: "How can this be..."
Soap, an artifact casually created by countless crossing bosses, has all turned into a pot of paste to her.
Although Xiao Ling had always wondered why Su Yang'er wanted to make this kind of thing, when she saw that she was about to cry, she immediately felt a little distressed, and said, "Little lady, let's go back, the house should be cleaned up soon..."
Su Yang'er held back her grievances and said to Yang Bao: "Pour it down, I'm hungry, cook!" ”
It's ridiculous that she also prepared salt brine and wanted to make oil wax, but she couldn't even make soap.
At that moment, she pulled Xiaoling and left angrily, leaving only Yang Bao and the others looking at each other in the kitchen.
……
"Little lady, don't be upset, aren't you just playing to relieve boredom?"
On the way, Xiaoling comforted Su Yang'er, although she didn't know why Su Yang'er suddenly wanted to make soap balls, and she didn't know where she heard this recipe, but in her mind, Su Yang'er just relieved her boredom.
She didn't know that this was a fatal blow to Su Yang'er.
Su Yang'er forcibly held back her sorrow and said, "I'm fine, Xiaoling, you can ask Yang Bao later, how much did those things cost, let Uncle Wang give them to him." ”
At this moment, she suddenly realized that she was just an ordinary person, and her knowledge of chemistry was probably correct.
But he can't invent and create as casually as the time-traveling bosses in the novel.
The success of the protagonist of the later novel in a few words is just a mess for her.
Apparently, she lives in a naked and unforgiving reality.
The method of substitution of raw materials is just a pile of paste.
"I don't have equipment, I can't build equipment, I can't build it..."
Su Yang'er seemed to have woken up from the dream of making a fortune, but she didn't give up.
But what can a fake woman like her, who lacks both hands-on ability and knowledge of the times, do.
