Currently, Ye Han only has saltpeter as the raw material for making black powder.
As for how to obtain saltpeter, Ye Han has already planned to start preparations.
Saltpeter in nature is often formed by decomposing nitrogen-containing organic matter in the soil under the action of bacteria, oxidizing it into nitric acid, and then combining it with potassium in the soil.
It usually precipitates in the form of crusts or salt flowers and covers the ground and wall base. This is the so-called floor frost.
The ancients would sweep up this nitrate-containing soil, place it in a bucket, and soak it in water. After filtering, the filtrate would be boiled or dried in the sun to obtain saltpeter crystals.
In addition, it can also be found in some rocks, caves, salt marshes and other places.
Ye Han had explored the surrounding areas many times before, and he already had a rough idea of where to find suitable raw materials.
The soil used to extract saltpeter is also called saltpeter. This stuff is usually found next to cesspools, and then there is the soil at the base of old walls, etc.
Not to mention anything else, the area where Ye Han often goes to the toilet can be said to be salty soil.
After the cowshed was built, Ye Han planned to start refining saltpeter.
Getting rid of the green water anaconda as soon as possible can be regarded as solving a serious problem.
Otherwise, Ye Han would never dare to go to the swamp and lake areas, where there are still a large number of freshwater fish.
Of course there are more fish in the sea, but Ye Han has eaten too much sea fish and also wants to eat some freshwater fish.
It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten freshwater fish.
Ye Han continued to build the bullpen, while on the other side, Zhang Haoran finally made some moves.
Zhang Haoran and August from Beer Country are completely at loggerheads, and both sides have been on hold for the past few days.
But in comparison, Zhang Haoran is obviously more leisurely.
He was not afraid that August might sneak attack or anything, after all, he had Sirius.
Once August approaches, Sirius can react immediately, so there is no possibility of being attacked by surprise.
August, on the other hand, was a little on tenterhooks. After these days, he gradually began to become a little impetuous.
First of all, there is no one to talk to. It would be very depressing for a person to live in such a tropical rainforest.
Then there was the pressure Zhang Haoran brought to him.
In his inference, the opponents were Zhang Haoran and Zhu Chuanqi, plus a wolf.
But he only has himself, and there is a huge gap between the two.
Even though August is a super detective from Beer Country, he can't stay calm now.
Once there is a problem with your mentality, it means failure is not far away.
The success or failure of many things in the world, especially some major events, has a lot to do with people's mentality.
For example, someone spent 400,000 yuan to buy a house to buy Bitcoin, meaning they wanted to take a chance.
But the price of this thing changes countless times every day. Sometimes it rises sharply, sometimes it falls sharply. Who can control this?
Everyone wants to hold on and sell at the highest point, but how many people can do it?
In the end, that person's mentality finally collapsed. Every day was like riding a roller coaster, and he couldn't bear it at all.
When the value of these Bitcoins reached more than 300,000, he sold them all, even at a loss of tens of thousands.
But not long after, the price of Bitcoin rose sharply. If he had persisted, he would probably be a multimillionaire by now. It is a pity that he could not persist.
This is just a simple example, there are many more like this.
If you don’t adjust your mentality well in the college entrance examination, you will lose everything. If you can get into one class but get into two classes, this is considered light.
I had a bad mentality during the game. I could have won, but ended up losing the game.
Examples abound.
And now August, he also noticed a change in his mentality.
He is a smart man and thoughtful, but he can't adjust his current mentality.
The opponent is not afraid at all, but he cannot delay it any longer.
If he continues to delay, he will only get worse and worse, and will most likely retire on his own in the end, unable to hold on.
Therefore, he must take the initiative.
It is certain that he will withdraw from the competition, but before withdrawing, he must also find a way to get someone into trouble!
Zhang Haoran is a werewolf and is protected by a wolf, making it difficult to succeed.
So August formulated a battle plan against Zhu Chuanqiu!
He plans to look for traces of this team of players starting today, and try to break Zhu Chuanqi's legs to make Zhu Chuanqi retire.
Of course, this in itself is also a violation. After he has finished this job, it is natural for him to go home.
After making several calculations in his mind, August packed his things and went out, starting to look for traces of Zhu Chuanqiu and Zhang Haoran.
He was indeed very smart and was able to pinpoint the identity of Zhang Haoran, the mastermind behind the scenes, from just a few clues.
But against all calculations, he could not have guessed that Zhu Chuanqiu would have withdrawn from the competition long ago and would be drinking Chinese medicine at Zou Ming's house...
In Zou Ming's home, a strong smell of Chinese medicine wafted from the kitchen.
Although the range hood is running all the time, there is no way to remove all the smell.
The smell of Chinese medicine wafts through the room.
Two patients, Zou Ming and Zhu Chuanqi, take traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, moxibustion, medicinal baths, etc. every day.
A series of treatments that never stop.
"What is this guy talking about? From the look of his mouth, it seems like he is talking about Zhu Chuanqi?"
Zou Ming had a lot of silver needles inserted into his legs and was watching August's live broadcast.
"It looks similar to me."
Zhang Yun nodded and said.
Not to mention that they feel similar, Zhu Chuanqi also feels similar.
He also sneezed, which almost gave him a stone hammer.
"This August is trying to do something bad. Does he want to deal with me?"
"I'm no longer on the island a long time ago. This guy is really stupid."
Zhu Chuanqiu mocked.
If August wanted to deal with him, he would really have no choice but to draw water from a bamboo basket.
But the key is that August didn't know that Zhu Chuanqiu had withdrawn from the competition long ago.
At this time, August went out with all the supplies and equipment, and he was going to start looking for the whereabouts of Zhang Haoran and Zhu Chuanqi.
On the other side, by coincidence, Zhang Haoran was feeling bored and was walking outside with Sirius, wanting to take a look at August's cabin to see what was going on.
Zhang Haoran now has a lot of equipment in his hands, including what August has in his hands.
But it is always interesting to find an opponent. Zhang Haoran hopes that this person can play with him more.
Of course, it is within the scope allowed by the rules. It would be bad if it was violated.
Some viewers felt that the two people were probably walking opposite each other, which means they could meet!
The cat detective also noticed this scene. He made a quick calculation and determined the matter.
"The two sides will probably meet around 12:30 noon."
"But Sirius will definitely notice someone in front of him in advance. Interestingly, August may be going home."
The cat detective smiled.
He thought August could hold on for a while, but he didn't expect that he would die so soon.
But if you think about it, if you put yourself in August's shoes, most people would probably quit the game on the spot and would not persist until now, let alone infer that this incident is related to Zhang Haoran.
August is already very good. If his teammates were smarter and calmer, they would never be in this situation.
