Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty Piao Yuan's Thoughts.
…
…
At the beginning, when "Yue Rong Fang" was first founded, Zhao Junchen also wanted to make this kind of translucent pancake, but this kind of translucent pancake needed to add glycerin as a transparent agent, and Zhao Junchen didn't know it at all.
How to make glycerin, so I gave up.＠
Now, even though Zhao Junchen voluntarily gave up, this translucent pancreas still appeared!
What does this mean? Has someone found a way to make glycerin? Or has someone found a clearing agent that can replace glycerin?
If it's the latter, that's fine, but if someone finds a way to make glycerin, then it would be of extraordinary significance to Zhao Junchen!
Because although Zhao Junchen is not good at chemical knowledge, he also knows that the role of glycerin is not just a transparent agent.
For example, mixing glycerin with concentrated sulfuric acid and nitric acid can form a potent liquid explosive, which is far more powerful than black powder. Although it is very dangerous to produce and inconvenient to store, people in this era were completely ignorant.
If the power of high explosives is used on the battlefield, only a few of them may be enough to destroy the enemy's morale and turn the tide of the war...
For a moment, because of the appearance of this translucent soap, Zhao Junchen's thoughts actually drifted away.
However, after the surprise, Zhao Junchen shook his head secretly, feeling that he had thought too much.
Glycerin is not a natural product. It needs to be refined. Even I don't know how to make it. The craftsmen of this era have no relevant concepts and ideas at all. They have no idea what the word "chemistry" is. How can they discover the method of making glycerin?
?Perhaps the appearance of the transparent gourd in front of you is just because the gourmet craftsmen discovered some kind of natural transparent agent.
What's more, even if the craftsmen discovered how to make glycerin, how could they make potent liquid explosives without concentrated sulfuric acid and nitric acid? Anyway, Zhao Junchen's chemistry knowledge had already been given to the teacher, and he didn't know about concentrated sulfuric acid and nitric acid.
How to make sulfuric acid - there is a method to produce sulfuric acid in Taoist alchemy, but it is just dilute sulfuric acid. Although it can be distilled and purified, it is very difficult. As for nitric acid... Zhao Junchen only knows that it can be made from saltpeter, but what are the specific steps?
, but Zhao Junchen didn’t know it!
Therefore, after recovering his thoughts, Zhao Junchen couldn't help shaking his head and laughing to himself. He felt that he had thought too far, and he secretly hated himself for forgetting all the chemistry knowledge in his previous life, otherwise it would be a different situation now.
Litigation in the book: In fact, in this era, the production of glycerol is completely possible! Because glycerol itself is one of the by-products of the pancreatic industry!
Nowadays, although the production method and supply of soap are monopolized by the royal family, the development of new soap is still under the responsibility of "Yue Rongfang". Under Zhao Junchen's reward mechanism, the "Yue Rongfang" kitchen craftsmen are
Enthusiasm for research and development has increased unprecedentedly. Every day, various new methods and materials are tried to make pancreatic juice. Under such premise, the discovery and use of glycerol is not impossible.
Of course, due to his lack of chemical knowledge, Zhao Junchen did not know that glycerin is a by-product of pancreatic production, and out of the subconscious arrogance of the time travellers, he believed that his pancreatic craftsmen would not be able to discover the production method of glycerol without his own guidance.
, so this possibility was ignored by Zhao Junchen!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As his thoughts changed, Zhao Junchen considered many things, but they only happened in a moment.
When Zhao Junchen came to the side of Chen Zhirong, Su Xiuning and Cui Qianxue, he had collected his thoughts and his expression returned to its usual calmness.
At the same time, Chen Zhirong also noticed Zhao Junchen's approach, so he turned around and held the "crystal pancreas" in front of Zhao Junchen's eyes, and said like a treasure: "Master Zhao, look at it, this piece of pancreas is crystal clear, it is really beautiful! No!
I thought that when we wandered around the Yuerongfang today, we encountered such a wonderful thing."
While speaking, Chen Zhirong's expression flashed with a hint of coquettishness, which was very different from her usual charming and shrewd appearance.
However, in the blink of an eye, Chen Zhirong put on a regretful expression and sighed: "It's a pity that there are only two of these crystal soaps in the shop, but besides me, Sister Su and Sister Cui also like it very much.
There is no way to give each of them one piece... Mr. Zhao might as well buy it and give it to Sister Su and Sister Cui, and I will choose others."
Hearing what Chen Zhirong said, Cui Qianxue and Su Xiuning quickly refused, but they could see that the two women really liked the "crystal pancreas" in front of them, so their attitude was not firm. In addition, Chen Zhirong insisted on giving up, so Su and Cui finally gave up.
's agreed.
Zhao Junchen thought about it and agreed to Chen Zhirong's method. Because Chen Zhirong has a mature mind, he would not be too sad even if he did not get the "Crystal Pancreas", but it would not necessarily be the case if it were Cui Qianxue and Su Xiuning.
So, Zhao Junchen nodded to Xu Qingyan behind him and motioned for Xu Qingyan to buy it with money.
After Xu Qingyan got Zhao Junchen's signal, he asked the "Yerongfang" clerk next to him: "How much do these two pieces of crystal soap cost? My young master bought them all!"
When the "Yerongfang" clerk saw that Zhao Junchen and others were determined to buy it, his smile became more enthusiastic and flattering, and he replied: "You also know that this 'crystal pancreas' is a new product. It is very difficult to make and has very little production. Now it is everywhere in the world.
It’s only a hundred or ten yuan. They are all treasures. There are only two yuan in the small store, so the price is inevitably a bit expensive..."
Xu Qingyan waved his hands impatiently and said: "I'm just asking you how much money this crystal soap costs. Where did you get all this nonsense? Do you think my young master can't afford it?"
Seeing that Xu Qingyan was a little impatient, the waiter quickly said: "You don't mean that, you are a noble person at first glance, why would you care about a little silver... This kind of crystal pancake costs eighty-eight taels of silver per piece, and the total of two pieces is one hundred."
Seventy-six taels of silver."
A piece of soap for washing was sold for eighty-eight taels of silver. It was naturally extremely expensive. With Xu Qingyan's money-grubbing temperament, if he had heard such a price anywhere else, he would have jumped and cursed him as a "profiteer."
However, now when buying in the "Yue Rong Fang" store, and "Yue Rong Fang" is Zhao Junchen's property, no matter how much money you spend, it is just a matter of left hand and right hand, so Xu Qingyan not only did not yell, but instead snorted disdainfully,
Said: "It's just such a small amount of money, but it's worth all your words!"
While talking, Xu Qingyan was about to take out the banknotes from his arms.
However, before Xu Qingyan took out the banknote, he heard a young man next to him say in an arrogant and exaggerated tone: "Such a small amount of money is indeed not expensive. I bought these two crystal soaps!"
While he was talking, the young man had already rushed ahead of Xu Qingyan and put the banknote into the hand of the waiter next to him.
Such a change naturally attracted Zhao Junchen's attention, so Zhao Junchen turned to look around, and saw this young man with a face like a crown jewel, clear eyebrows, a slender figure, and excellent appearance! He was also dressed in luxurious clothes and covered with gold and jade. He obviously comes from a wealthy family, but the arrogance and rudeness in his expression are too obvious, and he has a bit of a dandy temperament.
At the same time, this young man was also looking at Zhao Junchen, with some disdain and provocation in his eyes.
However, in addition to looking at Zhao Junchen, he would also peek at Chen Zhirong from time to time. Every time he peeked, a trace of obsession would flash in his expression.
