Luo Ya nodded in agreement: "Well, Brother Yi is right."

"Yuyao, go and issue a gag order to the monks who participated in the battle today: No one is allowed to mention the monsters in the mine and the news about the Yuanjing Mine, so as not to leak it early.

Then ask the person in charge of the mine to appease the family members of the dead miners, and the pension that should be supplemented cannot be less.

After the aftermath work is done, iron ore mining can continue. "

"Okay, Brother Yu." Jiang Yuyao took the order to arrange affairs.

To deal with the crisis in the iron mine, Yuyi took a few girls to inspect other mines to eliminate the hidden dangers.

After that, Yuyi started his own teaching plan again.

Students are taught in the square every day.

"Brother Yu, there is good news." Yuan Li excitedly ran to Jin Square.

"Oh? What good news?"

"I can't tell for a while. Brother Yu will follow me to the scientific research department."

Yuanli is the person in charge of the scientific research department, and what can make him excited is definitely a great discovery.

Yuyi's interest in this increased greatly, and he followed Yuanli to the scientific research department.

After the establishment of the scientific research department, a large open space was designated as a scientific research base, and many buildings were built in it.

Usually, Yuanli and some people who love to invent and create work here.

The scientific research base is divided into many areas, and each area is responsible for a large project.

Each large project is subdivided into many small departments.

Yuanli brought Yuyi to his laboratory.

"Brother Yu, the glass, soap, and other items you mentioned have all been manufactured, and the improved papermaking technology can basically be put into production."

Yuanli handed a piece of transparent glass, a piece of soap, and a stack of white paper to Yuyi.

There is also glass in Tianyuan Continent, but they are all made by alchemy. The cost is high, and only nobles can afford it.

The same is true for paper, which is a product of alchemy.

Nobles like to record documents on paper, while monks like parchment scrolls.

Few of the common people could afford expensive glass and paper.

For ordinary civilians, wanting to study is not an easy task.

As for the method of making glass, Yuyi only knows a rough idea.

Glass uses quartz sand, soda ash, feldspar and limestone as raw materials. After mixing, high-temperature melting and homogenization, it is processed and shaped, and then annealed.

have to.

Although I know the method, it is not easy to implement it.

The glass produced with different proportions of various ingredients will have different thicknesses.

Creating beautiful glass objects requires a lot of experimentation.

Yuyi once introduced the method of firing glass with soil to Yuanli and others, and asked them to experiment by themselves.

He held up the glass in his hand and observed it carefully.

The glass made by Yuanli has no trace of impurities inside, is clear and translucent, and can basically meet the expected standards.

Needless to say, paper, you can tell good from bad at a glance.

He focused on observing the soap in his hand, and even smelled it with his nose.

There is still a bit of a gap than expected.

The making method of soap is also very simple, it needs plant ash, lard, salt, water, wine and other items, and then mix and boil according to a certain proportion.

The specific ratio also requires a lot of experiments.

Yuyi nodded and said, "Well... not bad, the glass and paper can meet the expected standards.

The soap needs to be slightly improved, the taste is a bit harsh, focus on removing odors, and increase the variety of spices.

Make different kinds of soaps to suit every customer. "

"Ok."

"You have already researched the recipes for glass, soap, and papermaking. Are the process steps perfect? ​​Can it be mass-produced?"

"Well...the steps have basically been perfected, and only need to do some fine-tuning, the formula can be handed over to the production department for mass production."

"Good job." Yu Yi smiled.

As the saying goes, there are several essential skills for a traveler, soap, glass, and papermaking.

In the past, Yuyi didn't engage in these things because he had been in contact with monk groups and had hardly touched the lives of ordinary people.

The creations of monks involve all aspects of life, and there is no need for glass, soap, paper and other items.

For example, soap, monks don't need it at all, they can use vitality to clean their bodies and clothes.

So the cleaning of foreign objects seems very tasteless.

In a place of chaos, most of them are ordinary people, and items such as soap are necessary.

After the population of the Phoenix Tribe exploded, various supplies were in short supply.

Especially the food problem is imminent.

The combined food reserves of many tribes are only enough for three months.

It will take at least half a year to open up the wasteland and harvest the crops.

In the remaining three months, can't one hundred thousand people sit outside the city and drink to their fullest?

Therefore, the Phoenix tribe urgently needs to buy food from other tribes.

Glass, soap, paper, and other items can be used to open trade routes, earn wealth, and exchange for food.

"In addition to soap, glass, and paper, are there any other results?"

"Of course, Brother Yu, please come here."

Yuanli took Yuyi to the weapon experiment range in the scientific research area, and took out a firearm from the shelf.

Yu Yi saw the condition of the new firearm at a glance, and said pleasantly, "Is this a Mini rifle?"

The Mini rifle is an era more advanced than the Lumi rifle.

In the era before breech-loading guns appeared, the Minie rifle was the master of the battlefield.

The basic structure of the Minie rifle is like a flintlock, using the impact of flint on the hammer to generate sparks and ignite the gunpowder.

It is more advanced than a matchlock gun like Lumi Gun, and it is not easy to explode.

The principle of the Mini rifle is simple to say, but it is not easy to make it.

Many things can be created without knowing the principles.

For example, the Minie rifle in front of me, to manufacture it, not only the blueprint, but also the related manufacturing process is needed.

There are many things designed in it, not just one or two

(This chapter is not over, please turn the page)

One sentence can sum it up.

Otherwise, why didn't Yuyi let Yuanli study the breech-loading gun directly, wouldn't that be better?

Each soldier held an AK and swept across the chaotic land directly.

Ideas are nice, but simply can't be done.

The basic science of the land of chaos has just started, there is no supporting industrial system, and the production of machine tools is nothing more than a delusion.

"Haha... Sure enough, you can't hide anything from Brother Yu." Yuan Li said excitedly.

Yu Yi took the Minie rifle, loaded it with ammunition, and fired a shot at the target.

The power is better than he imagined.

Although the Minie rifle is still a front-loading gun, it is more convenient to load ammunition than the Lumi gun, and it uses Minie bullets.

It has a longer range and greater power, and it will definitely be equipped by the entire army in the future.

Yu Yi couldn't help asking: "Can the Mini rifle be cast on a large scale?"

Yuanli responded: "There are still some areas to be improved. After I complete them, I can submit the drawings to the Weapon Casting Department."

"How long will it take?"

"Two or three days."

"Well, you've worked hard. How about the Shenwei artillery? Has there been any progress?"

"Shenwei Cannon has not had much research results yet. Shenwei II requires more advanced steel for the barrel, and the casting process is too complicated, so it is difficult to realize at this stage."

Yuyi was not disappointed, and continued to ask: "How is the research on the steam engine going?"

Yuan Li sighed and said: "Oh... I got stuck, one is that the material is not good enough to seal the steam, and it is easy to explode.

Another reason is that the steam engine produced is too large, almost larger than a house, and it is difficult to miniaturize it. "

"Oh, take me to see."

"Brother Yu, please follow me."

The two came to the steam research area.

The steam engine project is also a large-scale scientific research project, and many researchers have gathered here.

In the center of the field, a behemoth almost two stories high, was steaming.

"See Master Yu." xn

When many researchers saw Yuyi coming in, they all bowed their hands and saluted.

Yu Yi waved his hands and said, "Everyone, you're welcome."

Yuanli pointed to the huge steam engine and said, "At this stage, only such a super-large steam engine can be built, and the airtightness is not good, and air leakage often occurs."

Yuyi glanced at the running steam engine, and couldn't help frowning.

Compared with the small steam engine he imagined, the gap is too big.

Such a large steam engine certainly cannot be installed on a train, nor can it be placed in a factory.

A steam engine requires a boiler that boils water to produce high-pressure steam.

Boilers can use wood, coal, oil, or natural gas, or even combustible waste as a heat source.

The expansion of steam pushes the piston to move, thus driving the mechanical operation.

The world's first steam engine on earth was a spinning ball invented by the ancient Greek mathematician Hiero in the 1st century AD, which was the prototype of the steam engine.

The world's first practical steam extractor made by Savery obtained a British patent in 1698 entitled "Friends of Miners".

It was not until Watt improved the steam engine that the steam engine was fully developed and started the first industrial revolution.

Human beings have entered the high-tech age from the feudal age, thanks to the emergence of the steam engine.

Yuyi only knew the principle of the steam engine, and then informed the scientific research department of the principle, allowing them to experiment and study by themselves.

If he really asked him to study it by himself, he would be blinded.

If the land of chaos wants to embark on the path of scientific industrial development, a steam engine is indispensable.

Chapter 228 Meeting

After observing for a while, Yuyi suggested: "The steam engine needs to be improved and reduced in size.

Xiaoyuan, you don't have to worry about ordinary materials all the time. There are many alchemy materials that can achieve the same effect.
