"Wow, look, look, it's on! It's on! β
"Ah, really. Opened so soon? How...... So this side hasn't opened yet? It's just smoke. β
"I don't know. However, it must be that the oil that has been boiled is a little hotter, right? β
"That's right, that's right! That...... Let's choose another one. β
"Uh-huh. Another good, another good! β
β¦β¦
About a quarter of an hour later, as a mist rose, the crowd of onlookers began to chatter. It turned out that with the continuous heating of the fire under the oil pot, at this time, the oil pot that had already moved a little bit was completely boiling, and as for the original oil pot that smoked first, it was still only smoking at this time, but the concentration of the smoke had increased, but it was not even the slightest sign of opening.
"Haha, look, look. This group of Da Zhou people really chose the pot of oil that was opened first. What foolishness, what stupidity! β
Hearing the discussions of those Great Zhou people around them, those big cannibals sneered in their hearts. Because, only they know best, the pot of oil that boiled first, in fact, although it looks like a staggering heatwave, but in fact, it is not burning at all, but the pot of crude oil that is still faintly smoking, although the current temperature is not up to the boiling Cheng dΓΉ, but it is also much higher than the pot of oil that seems to have been boiled. Therefore, if those Da Zhou people really chose this pot of oil to "wash their hands" in the end, it goes without saying that they are doomed.
"Well, the time has come, although one of the pots is not yet fully boiled. However, it doesn't matter, please get started. β
Hearing the voices of the Great Zhou people, Abu? Abbhaya also laughed, so. After arching his hand, he said in the direction where Qin Yong was. In fact, they had expected such a situation long before they came to the Central Plains, and it was exactly what they were looking forward to giving birth. Because. The reason why they want to put out two oil pots at one time is to mislead the people of the Great Zhou, and the facts in front of them all show that the people of the Great Zhou are really misled. The world thinks that the oil that has been boiled should be the hottest, but they don't know. After adding another substance to the oil, its boiling temperature is much lower than the original temperature.
"Quick, let's choose! Qin Gongzi, choose this pot that is still smoking. β
"Yes, yes. Yongyue Gongzi, while the oil in this pot has not yet boiled, if you wash it immediately. That's earned. β
"Yes, yes! You...... You're fast! β
In Abu? After Abaye's voice fell, Qin Yong didn't react yet, but the group of sons and ladies who were circling around the two iron pots couldn't help it first, so they urged Qin Yong to say in a loud voice. It's just that when Qin Yong heard their urging, he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. Earned? If I really chose this pot of oil, I'm afraid it would be burned, right?
However, he also knew it in his heart. These sons and ladies are not out of malice, on the contrary, they think that the oil in this pot is indeed a little cooler, so they will urge Qin Yongdu to make a choice, because. In the absence of boiling, the sooner you choose, the lower the temperature of this pot of oil?
It's just that since they think that the temperature of the oil in this pot is lower, why don't they "test" it themselves? Because Abu? Abaya has already said it before, and it is not limited to only Qin Yong, who said earlier that he wants to represent the "Yinshan Society", can "answer" this question, but the entire "Yinshan Society" can be used.
But where are they willing to take such a risk? Because, although they think that the oil that has not yet been fully boiled should be cooler than the pot that has been boiled, who knows if it is? And, even if it is, who knows if this so-called low temperature will burn people?
Because, although the oil in this pot has not yet boiled, it has been boiling on the fire for more than a quarter of an hour. Otherwise, it wouldn't be smoking all the time. Therefore, even if it was just for the 1 in 10,000 possibility, they were unwilling to take this risk instead of Qin Yong, after all, it was Qin Yong who promised to compete with the ambassadors on behalf of their "Yinshan Society" earlier, not these "nobodies".
"Well, it's really decent! It must have been added with white vinegar, otherwise, it wouldn't have been boiled so quickly. β
The other onlookers were all anxious, and they just urged Qin Yong to choose a pot of oil immediately so that he could complete the entire competition process quickly, but Qin Yong himself was not in a hurry. It's not that he doesn't know that the temperature of the pot of crude oil that is still smoking will get higher and higher, but he has already decided that the pot of oil cannot be selected at all.
Because, according to the information that has been circulated in later generations, the main principle of this trick of "washing hands in an oil pot" is to add a very special substance. This substance is none other than white vinegar, which is likely to be used in ordinary home kitchens. Because, according to later research, it has been shown that the so-called boiling point of white vinegar is only more than 40 degrees, and what about the boiling point of oil? Generally, it has passed more than 200 degrees.
Therefore, in the case of the two starting to heat at the same time, the side that does not add white vinegar is more difficult to boil, so Qin Yong has long decided in his heart that the oil that has not been boiled must not be chosen, otherwise, it is really possible to burn his hands.
However, as for whether the boiling oil in the pot was the oil he guessed had no temperature? To be honest, Qin Yong himself was not 100% sure, because, when he was in the later society, he had never seen what the oil that had been added to white vinegar looked like when it was boiling. However, the specific principle, he is very clear.
First of all, the density of this white vinegar is greater than that of oil, and the two are not compatible, so when white vinegar is added to the oil, in fact, it will sink directly to the lowest. Then, when the temperature exceeds 40 degrees, the white vinegar boils because it reaches the boiling point, and it is turned from the bottom to the top of the oil before rolling down again, so that the scene looks as if the oil is really boiled. However, in fact, because the white vinegar blocks the relationship between the oil and the iron pan at the lowest level, the oil can never reach the bottom of the pan until it is fully steamed. In this way, the oil can only rely on vinegar of more than 40 degrees to transfer the temperature, so the final temperature can only be more than 40 degrees!
With a temperature of more than 40 degrees, where can you burn someone? At best, it's just the temperature of a bowl of boiled water, and it's still only lukewarm. However, the pot of oil that is not blocked by white vinegar, because it has been directly absorbing heat, so its temperature may have reached sixty or seventy degrees, or even higher, so the possibility of being scalded by it is zΓ i, and this possibility is not small.
"Well, what a vinegar smell! In this way, there is nothing to worry about, right? β
Qin Yong originally wanted to stand in front of the pot of oil that was already boiling and take a good look, and finally decided whether to let go in and choose, after all, this is a matter of his personal safety, so be cautious, that is how it should be. However, I didn't expect that as soon as I got closer, I realized that a faint sour and vinegar smell had already spread out with the tumbling of the oil surface, of course, this sour smell was not only him, but many other people on the scene also noticed it, but because they didn't know the principle of things, they didn't pay attention to it at all. However, for Qin Yong, this taste was tantamount to a reassuring pill, so as soon as he bent down, in full view of everyone, he actually put his hands into this oil pot so suddenly.
