Chapter 124: The Great Invention

Lin Wanrong still cares about Qin Xian'er's words, and now that Xiao Qingxuan is his closest person in this world, he doesn't want her to be in any danger.

You have to think of a way to do this, but it really can't work, so I will take advantage of the chaos to deal with Qin Xian'er, I don't believe it, even if you are a little girl, even if you are a miracle, you can still beat me with two golden guns? Hey.

Back in the Xiao family's own nest, he couldn't sleep for a long time, and Xiao Qingxuan's shadow kept lingering in his mind. Now it seems that Xiao Qingxuan's family must be either rich or expensive, and there must be less resistance between him and her, and he must further strengthen his strength.

The martial arts are good, plus the poisonous needle and musket, even if the East is undefeated, Lao Tzu can also fight. The business of the Mu Xing Food is very good, and the Xiao family's underwear and perfume business is also exceptionally smooth, especially the perfume business, which is simply a huge profit.

It's a pity that due to the problem of production capacity, the output of perfume cannot be increased for the time being, but the silver with white flowers cannot be earned, so I am anxious. Moreover, the perfume business alone seems to be too thin, and we should find some other related businesses to gradually improve the product line, and the variety is rich, and there are more opportunities to make money.

In fact, from the time of the birth of perfume, he had a plan in his heart, since he made perfume, why not make something else like daily necessities? With perfume, you can also make soap.

Soap, the raw materials are very simple, I have learned it in middle school chemistry textbooks, Lin Wanrong also did classroom experiments at that time, grease plus caustic soda, high temperature heating can be done, and the process is not complicated, which is conducive to mass production.

There are also two types of soap, laundry soap and toilet soap. The laundry soap process is rougher, and it can be extracted directly with animal fat and caustic soda, and in order to save costs, you can also add one or two percent of rosin to it. Soap, the principle is the same. It's just a little more complicated than the process, which needs to be made by adding caustic soda with vegetable oil, and then purifying and adding flavor.

Flavor is naturally not an issue. Anyway, when brewing perfumes, there are a lot of braided residues left, which can be used for waste.

With the experience of perfume, Lin Wanrong has a lot of confidence, as long as this soap is made. It has become a profiteering product on a par with perfume. With just one perfume and restaurant, plus this soap industry, he suddenly has three golden roosters that lay eggs, two of which are still owned by him exclusively, and it is difficult to think about underdevelopment.

With this idea, he became excited, and his heart suddenly itched, Lao Tzu's two skills are purely exclusive inventions. If there was a Chinese Academy of Sciences in this era, I would have been a dean a long time ago.

He also wanted to get some shampoo and facial cleanser or something, but unfortunately he didn't know much about these things. What is even more regrettable is that I didn't study the ingredients of Viagra at the beginning, if I had a patent for Viagra in hand. , make him hundreds of small blue pills, and sell them exclusively to the emperor and princes and ministers, I will have no reason if I don't die.

This night he was in a great commotion, and he rejoiced in his great invention, but he did not close his eyes all night. When he got up early the next morning, he hurried out to the house.

Walked to the middle of the courtyard, but saw the eldest lady curly and graceful from the outside came in, it turned out that she stayed with the second lady in Qixia Temple yesterday, the sisters talked all night, and only came back this morning.

Seeing Lin San walking out with a smile on his face, he didn't even look at himself, Xiao Yuruo stopped him and said, "Lin San, what are you doing here?" ”

Lin Wanrong stopped. Seeing the person coming clearly, he said with a smile: "It turned out to be the eldest lady, I'll buy lard." ”

Xiao Yuruo glanced at him and said strangely: "You are not a cook, what are you going to buy that thing for?" ”

Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "The secret of heaven must not be leaked." ”

Seeing his mysterious appearance, the eldest lady said in her heart, this guy. I was afraid that there was some ghost idea, but after seeing the power of the perfume, she was also very curious about him, and said, "I will get up in the morning, and I will go with you when I have nothing to do." ”

Isn't it, the eldest lady accompanied me to buy lard? It's hard to say. Lin Wanrong said with a bitter face: "Miss, don't kill me." You're a big man, how can you fool around with me, how is the perfume sales going? ”

Xiao Yuruo nodded and said, "The sales are very good." By the way, the day after tomorrow we are going to the Jinling Poetry Society, you can go with me, see more of the big scene, maybe it will come in handy in the future. ”

Lin Wanrong understood, this is the eldest lady cultivating me, probably trying to make me a white-collar backbone and elite of the Xiao family, hehe, it's a little interesting.

He smiled modestly for a rare time: "Since it was ordered by the eldest lady, I naturally complied." But I don't know what the Jinling Poetry Society is? ”

The eldest lady nodded, and said in her heart, if you have this humble attitude every day, I won't always show you my face.

"The Jinling Poetry Society is the largest place to study in Jinling, and there are many famous talents and talented women in it, if this perfume is promoted among them, it will be a great success."

Lin Wanrong nodded, he understands this truth, isn't it the star effect, the talented women of this era are equivalent to the female stars who scratched their heads and posed out of the country in his previous life. If you are looking for a beautiful and talented woman, it will be too difficult to say "washing is healthier", if you want not to be popular all over Dahua.

was lewd, but listened to the eldest lady continue: "This Jinling Poetry Society has gathered the largest contacts in Jinling, not only the first talent in Jinling, Hou Yuebai, the first talent in Yangzhou, Yu Wenpo, but also the first talent in Jinling, Miss Luo Ning and many of her ladies, if we find an opportunity among them, then our perfume is completely established in Jinling." ”

The eldest lady seems to be in a good mood today, she has changed her impatience in the past, and spared no effort to introduce him to this business, it seems that she really wants to train him to become the backbone of the Xiao family.

Lin Wanrong pursed her lips disdainfully, and said for a long time, it turned out that this Jinling Poetry Society was Luo Ning and a few of them supporting the faΓ§ade there. However, the upper-class route of the eldest lady is very well chosen, and it is a gathering place for some talented official ladies, which should be the focus of tackling key problems.

The eldest lady said this for a while, and seeing that he looked relaxed, she didn't know how much he listened, so she had to snort secretly and wave her hand to let him go.

Lin Wanrong is a well-known lazy master, buying lard, how can he go out in person. He is now a member of the Xiao family's high-ranking family. It was a big celebrity in front of the ladies and ladies, and even the two managers were compared to him. Now that his value is soaring, if he doesn't know how to use it, he won't be the third brother Lin who claims to be omnipotent in this Xiao mansion.

He went and picked out a little guy. But it was the one who went to the kiln with the young master to shoot the young master's ass and got a reward of one or two silvers that day, which is called Sande.

"I'm talking about three virtuesβ€”" Lin Wanrong said.

The young man hurriedly clenched his fists and said, "Third brother, don't kill the little one." You are the third brother, how dare I use your name, from now on. My name is Side. ”

Day, look at this sycophant, and know how to avoid it, or how to say that this kid has a future. The feeling of planting a fox and fake tiger was very comfortable, so he nodded and said: "I said Side, you go to the butcher shop to buy me four catties of lard and come back, and by the way, go and help me get some pure caustic soda, and then call Fu Bo back." Just say that I have something to discuss with him. ”

If you have errands, you are cool, and you sent three things in one go, Lin Wanrong only moved her mouth, and these four virtues were done well. When Fu Bo came back, he saw Lin Wanrong directing Side to make a fierce fire in the stove. The lard of the white flowers was tumbling in the boiling water, and there was a faint fishy smell in the air.

"Fauber, you're back just in time." Seeing that there are laborers joining again, Lin Wanrong will not be polite, no matter how old you are, you can do things.

He took a large piece of fine abrasive cloth from the side. Methodically commanded: "Fu Bo, you are an old experience, after Side cleans the dirt on the surface in a while, you will use this filter cloth to filter the grease and clean it again." ”

Fu Bo said strangely: "Lin San, what are you going to do again?" "To say that Fu Bo and Chang Bo Er still really admire this Lin San, although this kid is only half-baked about floral art and machinery, he often has some whimsical ideas, which makes the two of them amazed.

Lin Wanrong naturally won't say it. Haha said: "Fu Bo, we have been friends for a long time, don't you still believe me?" ”

Fu Bo snorted, you kid, you don't have the idea of respecting the old and loving the young at all, but he still trusts Lin San very much, and he doesn't seem to be joking when he sees him. And he did as he said.

Lin Wanrong took his special pencil and kept writing and scratching on the paper, but they were all symbols that the two of them couldn't understand, and after a long time, he dropped the pencil and let out a long exhale: "Dear chemistry teacher, I love you forever." ”

He was so excited that he asked Fauber to pour all the washed fat into the pot and boil it again.

The fire temperature is getting higher and higher, and Side follows Lin Wanrong's instructions and keeps stirring. Lin Wanrong took one-third of the weight of the fat and threw it into the pot.

After continuing to boil for less than half an hour, he asked Side to pour a large amount of coarse salt into the pot and stir it evenly. Anyone who has studied chemistry knows that this thing is called "salting out".

About half an hour later, Fu Bo and Side were surprised to see that in the cauldron where the lard was boiling, a layer of pale yellow ointment-like things gradually floated on the surface of the water.

Lin Wanrong was overjoyed in her heart, this is soap, Lao Tzu is really a genius, dear chemistry teacher, you are proud of me, I will always remember your teaching: learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, and you are not afraid of the world.

This is actually a very simple chemical experiment, in which oil is hydrolyzed to produce higher fatty acid salts and glycerol under high temperature conditions in the presence of alkali. Fatty acid salt is our commonly used soap, and glycerin, plus nitric acid, can be made into trinitrate glycerin vinegar, that is, nitroammonia explosives. Because soap does not dissolve in thick salt water, and glycerin has a high solubility in salt water, soap and glycerin can be separated by adding table salt.

Lin Wanrong was overjoyed for a while, and then asked Side to scrape the pale yellow paste into a large wooden box with a spatula wrench, and wait until it cools down slowly, and it will be a large piece of soap.

For the by-product of glycerin, Lin Wanrong is still itching in her heart, with this thing, how good it is to make a few bombs and have fun. However, he was also well aware of the dangers, as the nitrate explosive was extremely unstable and could easily explode if it was shaken slightly. He hesitated for a long time in his heart, and gave up this plan for the time being, it was too dangerous, and Lao Tzu's life was important.

Lin Wanrong looked at the large piece of soap, but she was thinking about it in her heart. How much does it cost to make soap from this animal oil?

These four catties of lard are about the cost of eight pieces of silver, and the soap made of this soap can be made into thirty or forty pieces of soap the size of a small fist. You have to buy eight taels of silver for a piece of soap, that's a profit of thirty or forty taels of silver, it's so impressive. And this lard is only an experiment. The cost is high, and other animal oils and vegetable oils can also be used to further reduce costs.

After waiting for an hour, the soap finally cooled down, so Side took a basin of water and threw the clothes that had been soiled for a few days in the basin and soaked them, and then dug up a small piece of soap, and gently brushed the clothes a few times, and as soon as the water soaked, the stain disappeared without a trace.

Fu Bo was dumbfounded: "Lin San, what is this." So amazing? ”、

Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "Fu Bo, you have a good eye today." This thing is called soap. I invented it myself. ”

Fu Bo sighed: "Lin San, with this thing, those big girls and little daughters-in-law will save a lot of effort, they really have to thank you." ”

Lin Wanrong laughed: "Fu Bo, look at what you said, in fact, I have always taken it as my responsibility to benefit thousands of women and establish a new style of society. It's just that when I think that this goal is far from being achieved, I feel ashamed. ”

Fauber ignored his words. He rubbed the freshly formed soap, it was fine and smooth, and he wondered in his heart, why is this thing so magical?

This soap is just the coarsest kind of laundry soap. To make soap, the principle is exactly the same, except that the oil needs to be replaced with vegetable oil, such as coconut oil, tung seed oil, purified a few more times, and added some colors and spices to make soap. Lin Wanrong has always felt that it is a pity to make the remnants of perfume braids, and this time it can finally come in handy.

He followed this method and did another experiment, this time using tung seed oil and sprinkling more pressed braids. Lin Wancha paid more attention to this soap, so she didn't let Side operate it, and took it upon herself to put the paste into another box.

When the soap slowly cooled, Fu Bo and Side's eyes straightened. I saw that this soap powder has a little yellow, the color is very good-looking, and the air is sprinkled with a faint fragrance of braids.

Succeeded, finally succeeded, Lin Wanrong was excited, and finally couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh wildly. The beauties of the world, you just wait to use my third brother Lin's great invention, I will definitely make you more beautiful, fragrant and beautiful.

These two experiments, which were done for two whole days, were much easier and simpler than the perfume brewing that day. Fu Bo and Side both followed Lin Wanrong and watched the birth of a miracle with their own eyes.

If the perfume was not intended by Lin Wanrong, then this soap was done by him on purpose. For the benefit of the people of the world? Lin Wanrong doesn't have this kind of thought, she is very ruthless in making money, this is true.

Soap is a new product, and naturally if it is the upper route, the price must be set high at the beginning, and the profit will definitely not be lower than that of perfume. With this underwear, perfume, soap, and especially the monopoly of the latter two, isn't the silver in the world rolling in? In the future, I will make medicinal soap, and Lao Tzu will make a one-stop chemical industry, damn, see who dares to fight with me. At this moment, he has a feeling that he looks down on the world when he is famous.

It was already the time to hold the lamp, Fu Bo had really opened his eyes in the past two days, he sighed for a long time, and then said: "Lin San, look at this thing, do you want the eldest lady to take a look?" ”

Lin Wanrong is also thinking about this issue. The perfume was handed over to the Xiao family to operate, on the one hand, because of Xiao Yushuang's face, and on the other hand, because the Xiao family has a very complete marketing network. Although Lin Wanrong has technology and products, marketing is what he lacks the most, if he is asked to spend energy to rebuild, he does not have so much silver, nor so much energy. Let the Xiao family operate as an exclusive agent, but it is also a good way, and this model has been seen a lot in previous lives.

He thought about it for a while, and then said to Fu Bo: "I can let the eldest lady come and take a look, alas, I have failed too much, and I always have to be exploited by her." ”

The eldest lady's arrival was much faster than Lin Wanrong imagined, probably in her eyes, Fu Bo was an honest person and would not lie, so she did not hesitate to believe the facts that Fu Bo saw with her own eyes. If Lin San goes to tell him, it is already very good for the eldest lady to believe one out of ten sentences.

Xiao Yuruo entered the room and saw Lin Wanrong looking at her with a smile, her face turned red, and she said, "You, are you such an indecent person all day long?" ”

Lin Wanrong laughed and said, "Miss, I've never passed by like this." ”

The eldest lady glanced at him, snorted, and her gaze fell on the things behind him.

Is this what it's called soap? Xiao Yuruo looked at the two large pieces of soap in front of him curiously, the workmanship was not very fine, and it was a little rough, but it was smooth and smooth to the touch. Especially the soap, the pale pink color also has a bit of a clear fragrance, which makes her love it a little when she sees it.

"Lin San, is this really all done by you?" The eldest lady's excited voice trembled a little
