180. The Boiler Room and the Magic Workshop
The huge boiler should be placed above the combustion pit, which is not only equipped with runes for ventilation and combustion, but also has a residue chamber below the pit to ensure that the fuel residue can be removed without extinguishing the fire.
After a while, Kai Yin and the grass and fire fairies all arrived, and this was the first time that a building required three different varieties of goblins to be present at the same time to join the construction work.
The body of the boiler
"Salt Boiling Pot" is a mature process of the Empire, and there is no need to change it at present, but in the burning pit, as well as the part where the ground is in contact with the pot, it is necessary to add fire runes.
"Kai Yin, you tell them, I hope the coal will burn here after that, heating this cauldron." Rand watched intently at the boiler installation, dancing to express his request for runes.
"This one needs to be reinforced, but here I need to heat or burn runes." The burning pit wasn't very deep, and Rand was almost crouching in the pit with the fire elf strokes.
"Ahh Yiyaa. Haha" The leprechaun flew up and down, staring at Rand with wide eyes.
"Did she understand?" Rand didn't hear anyone's feedback, so he looked up. The centaur girl and Jonny were staring at Rand with wide eyes at the moment, unable to speak, and even Koryagan was looking at him in a daze.
"What's wrong? Can't it be realized? Rand is also puzzled now, and said in his heart that you can not do it, you can give me a word.
It was hard to say too clearly, and Rand could only tilt his head and look at a few people, not knowing at all how strange his behavior as a knight lord was in this kind of squatting in the pit.
"Adult" finally reluctantly opened her mouth with embarrassment,
"I can understand what you're saying, but I'm afraid I won't understand it with them." Kai Yin said as he tugged at his clothes.
"It's okay," Rand could only sigh when he saw this,
"Do what you can."
"Oh"
"And," Rand remembered what had happened in the tanning workshop just now.
"When you're done with them, follow me to find that grass goblin!"
"Okay," Kai Yin nodded effortlessly. After arranging the people and girls, Rand found Kur Yagan again, and the two boilers of the magic workshop and the Chengdong workshop are being installed simultaneously, according to the plan, the power of the Chengdong workshop is larger, the power and steam output are stable, and the power hammer and other equipment of the main blacksmith shop.
In addition, a bathhouse was built next to the boiler room, so that the blacksmiths and tanners could keep it hygienic. The prototype of the boiler in the Magic Workshop is a medium-sized salt boiling pot, and its main function is only to drive the equipment that has just been completed, and the docking equipment needs to be replaced frequently.
Now Kulyagan is also busy every day, in addition to installing boilers in the afternoon, in the morning he has to take his apprentice to select useful transmission materials from the decommissioned construction bought by Rand, and in the evening he has to make new boilers with a few girls.
"My lord, I don't have a clue about the manual you said" Kuryagan, who ran in front of Rand, scratched his head, the lord's request was obviously beyond his ability,
"Every boiler we make now is different, and I can only take my apprentices to test and explore after completion."
"It's okay to do this now, but in the future, we will only have more and more boilers, so I asked you to build this boiler room bigger, and all the boiler operators will be trained here in the future." As a person who arrived in a highly industrialized society, Rand's understanding of industrial products was much higher than that of the half-barbarian Kuryagan.
If you want to give full play to the power of industrialization, you must adapt to the requirements of industrialization from the quality of personnel to the organization and division of labor.
In addition to adapting to the requirements of industrialization, it is also necessary to overcome the hazards brought about by industrialization, such as pollution. And the grass fairy came so that she could try to produce a plant that could absorb the sewage of the tannery.
"Yiyi..." The green-haired grass fairy flew high above the leather workshop, two small hands covering his nose, and a disgusted expression on his face.
Now the weather is still cold, and the smell of sewage has not reached the most foul time, Rand knows that if he can't find a way as soon as possible, then it will be even more difficult to deal with it in the future The goblin flew for a long time, and then went to Kai Yin's side while gesturing and shouting, and it took a long time to express his understanding.
"She said unlikely" Kayin lowered his head and glanced at Rand, testing his reaction.
"Okay" Rand thought for a moment,
"You might have to bring the algae elves here!". For Rand, the day of technical support is only halfway there.
In the courtyard of the magic workshop in the northern area of the palace, several technical teams are simultaneously publicizing a number of basic crafts such as papermaking, spinning, soap, winemaking, vinegar, pickles, soy tofu, pottery, brick-burning, and mushroom cultivation.
All of these crafts are developed by a demon bearer and a group of non-demon people with technical ability.
From the royal capital to Maned Wolf City, Rand just hasn't seen soy tofu and pickles, and the rest have more or less seen it, but on the Galloping Horse Plains, many techniques have local characteristics.
For example, the inland is mostly cotton thread, and Rant's subordinates spin wool thread and cashmere thread, seeing that the spring is warmer, hundreds of long-haired sheep will enter the hair shedding period, and it is not difficult to spin wool into wool, many slightly larger tribes, the demonsless will use wool to spin yarn, but it is complicated to dismantle the defense line and add alchemy equipment for industrialization.
Rand had a general understanding of some of the principles of the textile industry equipment in the previous life, and could only give the girls and craftsmen a rough guide and let them explore it on their own.
Another example is inland brewing beer and wine, Rand hopes to brew distilled spirits directly, on the one hand, high-purity liquor can be used as a medical treatment in addition to drinking; In addition, the distillation process itself has a wide range of applications, such as purifying floral aromas and turning soap into soap.
The soap is relatively simple to make, the basic soap can be made by mixing the lye with the oil, and there is no shortage of grease in the camp, and the raw materials of the lye are purchased from the imperial capital along with many scrap irons.
The flowers in March are not easy to find, fortunately there are some wildflowers on the upstairs terrace, according to records, the entire courtyard and terrace exist as a life magic laboratory for the children of the royal family, although Rand found it overgrown with weeds, and the fields range from low-level magic plants to wildflowers and weeds, but the magic circle and irrigation facilities under the fields are neat.
"Wow, it's so fragrant, sir, is this what you call soap?" The first person to see the finished soap was Sophia, and as soon as Rand came back, she followed Rand to the R&D area, wondering if there was any new progress here, and became the first user of soap before she thought about it.
Sophia sniffed the soap in her hand and tried to wash her hands in the sink.
"This smell is so good, can you smell it?" As he spoke, he reached out to Rand.
"yes, I think it could be a little stronger." People who have experienced the fragrance concentration of soaps, perfumes, and shampoos in their previous lives will naturally not take a fancy to this primitive soap, and Rand has been thinking about the process problem, and he has also missed Sophia's bright eyes.
"My lord, the hemp paper you asked for has been dried" The person in charge of the papermaking team ran next to him, wanting to ask Rand to accept their results.
At present, the main raw material for paper production in the camp is waste paper found in various places, which can barely support a while, but sooner or later the waste paper will run out, and Rand wants to explore hemp paper as an alternative first.
The raw materials of hemp paper are simple, that is, they are more picky, and the quill pen that Rand brings with him or the carbon pen in the territory is not easy to leave traces on the paper.
"It seems that the craftsmanship needs to be improved slowly" Looking at the crooked words on the first sheet of paper, Rand even planned to reproduce the brush, but the brush is not very suitable for the alphabet here.
Compared with the development of wool spinning, hemp paper and soap, the development of several daily necessities is still in the initial stage, brewing, fermentation, and fungus cultivation have been on the right track, the first batch of fermented bean curd and pickled melon have been completed, the first batch of edible fungi is about to be harvested, and the new composting test field has been carried out in the south and north of the city respectively.
