The cost of all copper wires is too high, so Ying Feiyu plans to appropriately incorporate some aluminum to achieve the effect of reducing costs.

The cost has been reduced, and the popularity of both electricity and telephones can be accelerated!

These things must not be done by Ying Feiyu, so he took the time to come to the power plant and sent someone to call Huang Yuan over!

"Do you see the production progress of the phone? Don't worry, you have started organizing craftsmen and will be trained soon. After the electrical appliance factory is built, the phone can officially start production and manufacturing!"

Since Ying Feiyu took up the throne, he has rarely had time to come out for a walk. As long as he leaves the palace, he must be purposeful.

So Ying Heng naturally thought he came for the phone!

"The production of telephones is important, but have you ever thought about the telephone lines that you need to use for phones?"

Ying Feiyu hugged his shoulders and reminded him with a smile.

"Telectronic line?"

The two blurted out and looked at each other.

"Brother, what's wrong with the phone line?"

The previous phone cable was still made of copper, and the test was very smooth and there was no problem at all, so Ying Heng was puzzled.

"There are no other problems, it's just that the cost is too high!"

Ying Feiyu spoke directly.

"Yes! My Daqin produces only so much copper every year, barely enough! Now you have to add one more phone and produce a lot of wires!"

Huang Yuan nodded in agreement.

He manages the factory for refining copper ore, and he knows better than anyone else how much it can produce and consume each year.

"But if you want to use a phone, you have to produce wires. There is nothing you can do about it!"

Yingheng doesn't want to make things that are hard-working, but are restricted by wires and cannot be popularized.

"Your Majesty also called me today. Could it be that there is any other way?"

Huang Yuan thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

Your Majesty called them here, it was impossible to make them worry with each other, right?

I guess I must have thought of a way to deal with it and asked them to implement it together!

"Haha! That's right!"

Ying Feiyu nodded with a smile.

This guy has been with him for many years and can now guess what he is thinking!

"Is there any other way really? Tell me, what's the way?"

Ying Heng was even more excited than Huang Yuan and couldn't wait to ask.

"aluminum……!"

Ying Feiyu didn't care and explained it directly to several people, "Like other metals, aluminum also has the properties of conductivity, and it can be made into wires to relieve the pressure of copper!"

"Aluminum? What is that? Why have we never seen it?"

After hearing this, the two kept scratching their scalp.

Even if I wanted to break my head, I didn’t understand what it was!

"In nature, aluminum exists in the form of a compound and needs to be decomposed and refined before it can be used!"

"I see!"

After Ying Feiyu's explanation, the two nodded, not understanding.

"These are two refining methods I wrote, look!"

Then, Ying Feiyu handed the materials prepared in advance to the two of them.

The scumbag father and the old guys are waiting to use the phone as soon as possible, so the refining of aluminum is imminent, the faster the better!

Therefore, Ying Feiyu prepared two ways of refining, one was thermal reduction and handed over to Huang Yuan.

The other type is electrolytic aluminum, which is under the responsibility of Ying Heng!

The two of them took a rough look and said excitedly: "In this way, can they really extract aluminum?"

Because the process recorded above was not very difficult, the two of them were puzzled.

"Can I be fun with you here?"

Ying Feiyu shook his head and smiled bitterly.

He ran out from afar and called Huang Yuan over, and wrote special information for this, but Ying Heng didn't believe it!

"Haha, brother, I don't mean that, I'm just curious. By following the above method, can you extract something that can replace copper?"

"That's right!"

Ying Feiyu gave a positive answer.

"Your Majesty, the method of refining is not difficult, but... we have never seen this aluminum ore before, and we don't know where to mine it!"

Huang Yuan said in a little embarrassed manner.

If you want to refine, you must have ore first?

Without raw materials, even if you master the method, you can't turn it out with nothing, right?

"This is simple. I will indicate on the map when I look back and order the army to mine!"

Since Daqin had never mined aluminum ore, there were many in Xianyang alone, just search using the system.

"Okay! Then let's prepare and conduct a decomposition experiment when the ore arrives!"

The two of them took this matter to themselves without hesitation.

With these two good helpers, Ying Feiyu is happy to be idle!

A few days later, a large basket of aluminum ore was carried to the two of them.

"This is the first basket the soldiers dug after finding the aluminum ore. I immediately ordered someone to carry it over for you to experiment!"

Ying Feiyu was also very happy when the aluminum ore was successfully excavated.

"So this is aluminum ore? I had a lot of it in my hometown when I was a child. I looked strange at that time, but I didn't know its effect, so I didn't take it to my heart!"

Huang Yuan shook his head and smiled bitterly.

If I had known at that time that this was aluminum ore, I would have bought the mine and extracted aluminum, I would have been rich long ago!

Of course, this is just thinking about it.

Back then, the poor family couldn't afford to eat enough. Even if they knew it was aluminum ore, they knew how to refine it, and they couldn't afford that mine at all!

"Now you have seen aluminum ore, and there will be a steady stream of ore sent over in the future. You can experiment with peace of mind and extract the aluminum as soon as possible!"

"Don't worry, brother, we have done the preparation work and we can extract the aluminum in a few days!"

"Yes, your Majesty, don't worry!"

The two of them smiled and confidently promised.

"Okay, then I'll go back and wait for your good news first!"

Ying Feiyu returned to the palace with peace of mind and quietly waited for the good news of their success.

A week later, Ying Heng stopped Ying Feiyu, who had just left the morning court, and excitedly reported the success of the electrolytic aluminum experiment!

Ying Feiyu was also a little helpless while nodding.

Why is this guy just like his? He always likes to intercept people halfway?

If you have anything, can’t you wait until he returns to Guanghua Palace or the Imperial Study Room before saying it?

But although he thought so, he couldn't bear to hit him with an excited expression, "Very good! This speed is much faster than I expected!"

"Brother, you don't know. We tried it many times before we succeeded!"

Ying Heng smiled proudly.

"Haha! OK! Since it has been successful, start mass production and can be installed directly after the telephone is built!"

Ying Feiyu explained.

"good!"

Ying Heng nodded.

Then he talked about the difficulties encountered during the test and the situation on Huang Yuan's side.

Looking at his excitement, Ying Feiyu couldn't help but praise him.
Chapter completed!
