Duck took a deep breath and stood in front of the bench. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

George had prepared the ingredients for his liquor: three different tequila substances, a small magic reactor for heating, a large distillation kettle, and a pure black bottle.

Isabella was a little worried, and asked Riley in a low voice, "Is it okay to have thirty-five bottles of wine in one day?"

Riley replied, "A skilled bartender is fine, but it doesn't include distillation." My brother is not only doing bartending now, but also has to distill the tequila stock solution first, which is equivalent to one more semi-finished product processing. Now that he can only distill and mix wine at the same time, I think George is going to test his ability to plan and multitask. ”

"What's multitasking?"

"Look at the big distillation kettle, there are three pipes for the wine, and the three distilled liquor will come out of the three pipes, but the boiling point of the three liquor is different, and the amount of liquor is also different, the control valve of the three pipes must be closed within the specified time, and the action is a little slower, and the error of the concentration of the ingredients of the two bottles of wine before and after will be very large!"

Isabella thought for a moment and said, "Why can't we distill the stock solution separately and then mix it by hand?"

"Because it is relatively easy to control the precise ratio with a distillation kettle, is the method of distillation first and then manual blending...... George demanded an error of 3 thousandths, which was already beyond the limit of human precision. ”

"Did he really want wine, not mercury?"

"Who knows, I must be holding back my bad idea again. ”

"Uh-huh, agree. So, what's the deal with the red-green stripes on the pipe?"

"The distilled liquor will go along the transparent outlet pipe, and when it reaches the green area, it means that the concentration of the liquor is up to the required level, and when it reaches red, it will not work. ”

"I see, but the speed at which the three liquors come out is different, so closing the valve a little faster or a little slower will be a problem," Isabella said, pointing to one of the tubes, "This green area is too thin, isn't it? It's not much thicker than a fingernail!

"That's right. Eyesight, technique, patience - these are the basic skills of an alchemical apprentice. During the three years I studied at the Royal Alchemy Academy in Doland, I spent at least one and a half years in the laboratory. ”

Isabella was dumbfounded: "The basic skills of an alchemy apprentice?"

"Yes. A good alchemist must be a good mage - perhaps far more than in terms of precise control, both in terms of precise control of alchemical materials and processes, and excellent control of one's own body. ”

Duck began to pour the stock solution into each of the three compartments in the distillation kettle, and the two girls stopped talking in unison, silently watching him in the hope that everything would be well.

The magic circle was activated, and the rapidly increasing temperature caused the three separated agave essences to boil rapidly, and the dew began to appear on the top of the distillation chamber, and the dew quickly flowed along the slender outlet pipe towards the marked area.

Isabella silently calculated: Thirty-five bottles of wine must be completed in twenty-four hours, and one bottle must be completed in about forty minutes--what about eating and drinking water toilets? If you count these and fill one bottle in thirty minutes, it should be possible, right?

Duck didn't know what she was thinking, his eyes chasing the liquid running through the three pipes, mentally calculating their speeds.

The third pipe was the most demanding, and Dack stared at it with all his attention, and when its liquid level coincided with the green area, which is not as accurate as the green line, he quickly twisted it, closed the control valve of the third pipe, and then, with his left hand raised, his right hand moved down, and at the same time, he slammed it twice, and closed the other two pipe valves as well.

The clear liquor continues to flow, merging at the intersection of the pipes ahead and flowing into the pre-arranged bottles.

The bottle had just been filled to eight points, and George's flat voice rang out: "Success." ”

Duck laughed hesitantly, and actually installed a magic circle that can speak to remind the result, George, this guy, really.

The two girls immediately fluttered their eyebrows, yes, they succeeded on the first attempt! In less than five minutes, they had already completed one-thirty-fifth of them!

Dak took the final step without stopping, tightly plugging the black bottle with a cork and bringing it to the side - a bottle of wine was done. Then he placed the second bottle and opened the control valve with hope.

However, as soon as he opened the third pipe, George's flat voice rang out: "Failure." ”

Not only Dark, but the two girls also said "huh" in unison, how could it be?

Duck looked at it and understood.

After the control valve was closed, the liquor in the original pipe did not disappear, but was close to the valve. The green area of the third root is the thinnest, and as soon as the valve is unscrewed, the liquid level rushes over, and naturally fails.

Although it failed, Duck was not discouraged, it was not a big mistake, it was just inexperienced, and the way to deal with it was easy, close the magic energy circle, drain all the original liquid in the partition room, clean the pipes, and start from scratch.

There is no shortcut to doing experiments, and a set of procedures for sorting out experimental equipment has been walked down, and twenty minutes have passed.

The two girls glanced at each other and began to feel that the situation was not optimistic, and the original plan of thirty minutes for one bottle had to be forcibly reduced to ten minutes, because cleaning up the experimental equipment could not be omitted!

Isabella said, "Wouldn't it be better if the two sets of equipment were alternated?"

Riley shook her head: "The amount of operations has also doubled, and one person can't be busy at all." ”

Everything went back to its original state, and Duck was smart this time, not injecting a lot of stock solution, and only injecting just the right amount into each compartment.

Riley's brow furrowed slightly.

Isabella keenly spotted her little movements: "What's wrong? What's wrong? Is he trying to save the original liquid?"

"George had plenty of stock solution, and even half of it was more than enough to waste. My brother wants to bypass the restriction of the control valve by controlling the amount of raw liquid added, which is tantamount to returning to the old way of relying on manual blending! 3 thousandths, 3 thousandths! It takes at least a seventh-level alchemist to reach the level of 3 thousandths of a pure manual ratio error!"

"In case of success—"

Before Isabella could finish speaking, George's flat voice rang out again: "Failure." ”

Duck leaned back in disappointment.

This failure was miserable, not only did the liquid level in the third pipe rush through, but also the first pipe with the widest green area.

Darker sullenly turned off the reactor and began to clean up the experimental equipment for the second time, more than twenty minutes had been wasted just now.

Riley shouted: "Brother, this can't be done, the process of manual injection must be repeated thirty-four times, and three kinds of injections are injected, that is, one hundred and two perfect controls, which is impossible for human beings to achieve! It must be controlled by the original method and with valves! The injected stock solution can be reduced to a quarter of the first time, so that the total amount is enough, and it can also reduce the injection time by one minute!"

"Got it. Duck replied simply, frowning as he began to inject the stock solution for the third time, and he began to feel that things were a little tricky.

"Oh no," Riley muttered to herself, "Apprentice hell, apprentice hell is coming, brother, calm down, you must be calm!"
