Similarly, the equipment for steaming wine has long been not solved by the two broken iron sheets back then, and all the components used are provided by the Datang Martial Arts Research Institute, just like these seamless steel pipes, distillation covers, etc., in addition, there are several sections of glass in some places, so that people can see the situation inside clearly without removing the lid. It can be described as the most advanced steaming tool of this era.

Li Zhi, who was standing next to him, also knew the equipment for steaming wine, but on the way, I had already explained to him the meaning that refining oil and steaming wine belonged to the same principle, so he seemed quite quiet at this time, and perhaps it should be said that he would prefer to see how useful this thing could be in the military.

Ten catties of thick grease wrapped in a strong pungent smell was slowly poured into a special steamer, after all, it was a test, and no one could tell the consequences, so it was best and safest to reduce the amount. After a dozen catties of oil were poured into the steamer, the steamer was put on a steaming bottom pot that had been filled with water by a craftsman, because it was specially made, so the water vapor could not enter the pipeline with the distilled light oil.

Zhong Hua and others also simply learned from me to sit in the limelight, very leisurely watching as the fire was blown more and more vigorous, the water vapor also rattled, and the gas outlet of the lid of the pot made a piercing sound of squealing flute, at this time, there were already two craftsmen, through the rocker arm and belt in the distance, connected to the stirrer of the steamer, so that it could be heated more evenly, we have burned the glass, if you don't even know how to use this trick, it is too stupid.

The blower blows wildly, and the calorific value of the coal furnace composed of three honeycomb coal groups is not inferior to that of other coal furnaces. Perhaps because the amount of oil poured into the steamer was too small, it took less than a column of incense to make an old craftsman who was observing the situation of the condenser tube roared: "The oil is out!" ”

Listening to this man's words, this son jumped up from the small horse and ran forward, the target was the distillation condensation liquid outlet more than twenty meters away, the craftsman didn't seem to react, and only after the first drop of liquid dropped on the sand did he realize it, and quickly took a glass bottle from the side, and got to the liquid outlet, I also rushed to the front, stretched out my hand to replace the old craftsman, and I came to do it myself.

------------------------------------------------ clear, slightly yellowish liquid from the beginning of a drop, two drops, to gradually become a trickle, a stream of the kind of later generations into the oil depot to refuel, the familiar smell began to appear, I was so happy that I couldn't hold the bottle, a strong reminder to be calm, not to be sad, not to be happy, well. After a while, this small bottle that could fill about a pound of water was full, and soon replaced a bottle, Li Zhi also hurriedly started for me, as long as a bottle was almost full, he would hand over another bottle, and the cooperation between our master and apprentice was quite tacit.

As brewed, after receiving several bottles, the amount that comes out is getting smaller and smaller. I quickly beckoned them to stop, and there were already several bottles here, and the colors were also different shades. On the side, there are already recorders who are recording the proportion of oil and the color of the oil according to the proportion.

I was a little excited, I picked up the first bottle of oil, had someone bring a ball of cotton, took a tweezer and grabbed it, reached into the bottle and stirred it, let it soak in oil stains, and then threw it into a plate, and then lit a piece of paper, and carefully stepped forward, and before it was lit, I specially asked the big guy to get out of the way, and then brought the flame closer.

I heard a bang, and a large ball of flames rose from the plate, startling the craftsmen and officials who came to watch around them, Li Zhi, the gossip little prince, got close, and didn't listen to the advice of this son, almost let the flames lift his eyebrows. Seeing the prince gasping and touching his eyebrows: "Oh, it's really scary, Lone almost let this thing burn." I almost laughed out loud, and said to Li Zhi with a straight face: "Let you flash away, you still have enough strength to come forward, you know what is called bitterness, you know what is called good words and bitterness, right?" ”

"Yes, yes, Brother Jun, you're right!" Li Zhi replied stupidly, and his eyes were attracted by this amazing flame. The flames were wildly radiating heat in front of everyone's eyes, and we could see a kind of fear in their eyes, yes, the fire oil that was refined in such a small way had so much firepower that we all subconsciously moved our feet to our hands, think about it, if this oil is stained on the human body, then I don't know what it will burn into.

After a number of experiments, the oil was dipped in green and fat grass and burned in the same way, and then I asked the master to fetch a basin of water, and then poured the distilled oil on the surface of the water, and it burned quite violently. Now, the big guy's eyes are shining, well, almost comparable to the burning flames.

This kind of thing, not to mention others, is packed in a glass bottle that can hold one or two catties of liquid, and when it is thrown into the distance, the glass bottle is scattered in the distance, so that the oil in the bottle is sprinkled everywhere, and then it is led by rockets, and the flame that will not be extinguished for a long time, let alone fight on land, even if it is a battle in the sea, it is strange if the battleship lets this thing stain it and does not burn it to ashes.

"This thing, as long as there is air, there is only one spark, it can burn anywhere, it is very important for the military aspect of my Datang, quite important." This is a summary made by Li Zhi, who made the flame yellowed his left eyebrow, after watching a series of application tests, his expression looked very serious, but the yellow and black eyebrows made me feel a little funny, I simply didn't look at him, lowered my head and said: "Well, what you said is exactly what I wanted, in addition, there is one more thing I want to experiment......" I took out a flat-shaped iron box from my arms like a trick, and with a finger pull, with a bang, the upper part of the iron box was bounced open by me, and Li Zhi was still there to put the prince on the shelf, It's going to get me hooked.

"Brother Jun, what is this?" Li Zhi approached and wanted to stretch out his hand, so I hurriedly said, "Don't worry, wait until I pour this oil into it and show it to you when it's ready." ”

I skillfully picked up a plum blossom driver from the desk, unscrewed the bolt at the back cover, and then revealed a hole at the bottom, which was stuffed with cotton thread and cotton, I observed, picked up a bottle of lighter color fire oil, carefully poured this fire hole into it slowly through the open hole, it was already full, and the cotton and cotton thread inside were completely soaked in the fire oil, I nodded with satisfaction.

Don't the people on the side understand what I'm doing? We didn't bother to explain, I picked up the bolt and tightened it again, shook it a few times, and after it was true that the oil would not overflow from below, I finally flicked open the upper cover with satisfaction, and with a sharp push of my fingers, the rough steel sheet above and the flint fixed below rubbed off sparks, and ran to the cotton thread that was drawn out, once, twice, huh? Isn't it okay, there are too few sparks to ignite? I pulled it twice again, and a fire ignited at the end of the cotton thread that stretched out.

------------------------------------------------ I proudly put on the fire cap, the flame disappeared, and then I opened the fire cap, and then pulled it hard, and the flame reappeared, accompanied by the flame, it was an extremely strong pumping sound, and the big guy's gaze on this little thing was different now.

"I'll try!" Li Zhi rushed over like a firefighter who was not afraid of death, and snatched it away, and the people on the side were all red-eyed, but they all took into account Li Zhi's identity and did not dare to compete with this prince. Li Zhi is like a six- or seven-year-old child in later generations, with the feeling of liking and fearing fire, one will ignite, one will extinguish, and so on more than ten times, I can see that this baby is so naïve that I can say that I finally took this lighter back into my pocket.

Li Zhi rubbed his skin and scratched itchy, as if someone had snatched his most beloved plaything, and I whispered in his ear: "Hurry, when the time comes, I will send you to the teacher, this is just a sample." ”

"Huh? Another sample? Li Zhi was dumbfounded when he heard this, as if he saw the money in his pocket swishing into my pocket again, this stupid boy, I didn't bother to pay attention to it with a blank look, and began to summarize it with them. …… Keep it strictly secret, and remember, don't let anyone else know about this except those of you who are here. Do you understand? ”

"No!" Zhong Hua and all the craftsmen hurriedly responded. "Lord Zhong, let those sides of the Martial Arts Research Institute make more oil barrels and continue to refine this kind of oil oil, I think everyone has also seen the power of this oil So, let me repeat to you again, the first priority in fire prevention, safety is also the top priority, do not let these things get close to open flames, in addition, these extracted ones, and then choose another place to store them, so as not to have accidents, you must know the power of these things to explode, I'm afraid it's not even gunpowder, do you understand?"
