- Hearing this, Zhao Hao touched his chin and thought about the feasibility.
Speaking of which, Chinese alchemists are really good chemists, and they have achieved remarkable results. In addition to the well-known gunpowder, their inventions included, but were not limited to, the perfect distillation technique for the efficient purification of sulfur, iodine, mercury sulfide, mercury chloride, and mercury oxide by sublimation.
He also invented wet smelting of copper; the spontaneous combustion phenomenon of phosphorus; developed gold and silver amalgam; used flame reaction to determine the composition of substances; and discovered oxygen, knew how to prepare oxygen, and concluded that water contains oxygen, but it is difficult to extract, etc. wait¡¡
But after much thought, he decided not to mess with those people for the time being. First of all, the current Emperor Longqing hates alchemists very much. If the Xu family or any hostile force files a complaint saying that they are raising alchemists on Xishan Island, it will be a big trouble.
Secondly, most of the alchemists in this dynasty are cunning and ambitious. Bringing such people to Xishan Island is really unpredictable.
Thinking of this, he shook his head at his eldest nephew, and then said to Qu Rukui: "I have decided that Institute 04 will be established today, and you will be in charge for the time being."
Everyone applauded together and congratulated the junior brother for taking the lead.
Qu Rukui's face turned green and he stammered: "Master, am I the only one?"
"Well, it's just you." Zhao Hao nodded and said, "I don't want you to do anything else at the beginning, just complete all the tests in "Elementary Chemistry" for me."
"That, that's not easy either" Xiao Qu's face turned pale again.
There are dozens of experiments in "Elementary Chemistry" involving hundreds of chemical materials. I don¡¯t know how long it will take to find so many materials.
And the naturally occurring ones have to be purified, and the non-natural ones have to be synthesized There are also some that are toxic, highly corrosive, and flammable.
Just thinking about it made him tremble with fear.
"Master, my junior brother is a little timid, why don't I do it?" Zhang Jian hurriedly asked for the tassel.
"This is what I like about him as a teacher." Zhao Hao shook his head and smiled, and said seriously to the disciples: "Remember, although all experiments are dangerous, chemical experiments are the most dangerous. Those who engage in chemical experiments, The bolder you are, the sooner you will die. Only the cautious and prudent can survive."
"I understand, Master." All the disciples nodded and said, "Then Junior Brother is the most suitable."
"Yes, Master, he has to check the door latch three times every night before going to bed, extinguish the charcoal basin, and put a bowl of water between us." Xing Yunlu, who slept on the same bed as him, took the opportunity to protest: "He is simply too cautious. ."
Qu Rukui blushed with shame and argued in a low voice: "You only live once, who knows which will come first, tomorrow or the accident."
"Look, it's perfect, right?" Zhao Hao happily patted the young disciple on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, can I really leave you alone as a teacher?"
Talking about a few disciples: "From you, take the most cautious past, and support the younger brother."
"Hey." The disciples felt a little dizzy. The research center had just started, and every department was severely short of manpower. Being poached was as painful as chopping off flesh. But whoever dares to say no to Master may have his butt blossomed.
Zhao Hao saw their embarrassment and scolded with a smile: "Don't pout, I will send you dozens of apprentices later."
He was referring to the two hundred and twenty primary school graduates from Caijiaxiang Primary School. Those children had just finished their one-month training and were now helping to build the group headquarters in Suzhou City while waiting for assignments.
Although Jiangnan Group and the research center are not affiliated with each other, it is still no problem to transfer a few people here if the big boss speaks.
"That's good." The disciples all breathed a sigh of relief and said with smiles on their faces: "Thank you, Master."
"They are all graduates of Caijiaxiang Primary School. We must train them well." Zhao Hao whispered: "The masters are old. You will still have to rely on these people in the future."
"Yes, Master." All the disciples couldn't help but nodded. Nowadays, there are many skilled craftsmen in research institutes, but the more skilled the craftsmen are, the more they cherish their skills. Not only is it difficult to accept new things, but I am also afraid that my skills will be copied by others.
This makes it difficult for the institute to form a positive scientific research atmosphere.
The young directors saw it in their eyes and were anxious in their hearts, but they were quite helpless. Just like School 02, without those glass masters, it would be impossible to do anything. Therefore, it was useless for Xing Yun to be anxious. He could only coax them while trying to steal their masters.
By the time those interns arrive and the directors have learned enough from their teachers, they will no longer be afraid of giving up their job.
At that time, the atmosphere in the place can be completely turned around.
??~~
Coming out of Room 201, Zhao Hao entered Room 101, the No. 1 laboratory of Institute 01.
¡°Similar to 201, who is dedicated to making glass, this laboratory has only one mission, and that is to make the best steel.
Unlike his intention to restrict the development of chemistry, Mr. Zhao dreams of quickly refining suitable steel.
Because steel is the matrix of all machinery.
Without good steel, you can¡¯t make good guns or cannons, and you can¡¯t even make the cylinder of a Newcomen machine, let alone the more demanding Watt machine.
??Well, Zhao Hao is not eager for steam engines. After all, the problem of Ming Dynasty is the surplus of labor, not the shortage of labor. At present, even if the steam engine is developed, it will not be able to bring about the industrial revolution.
But he will go to sea next year and needs sophisticated weapons for self-defense.
We must first make up for this shortcoming before we can remain invincible!
Entering Room 101, Zhao Hao¡¯s expression changed. He looked seriously at the hundreds of dark cast iron pipes on the long table.
Like 201, each pipe fitting also has a number.
The difference is that you can¡¯t tell whether this thing is good or bad with the naked eye, it all looks like a meow
"It's still the same old problem, air bubbles and trachoma." Zhang Jian and Wang Yingxuan squatted down and pulled out a few wooden boxes from under the table.
The box was filled with broken cast iron cylinders, which looked like they were made for the Newcomen machine that Zhang Jian had longed for.
Now you can see the trick.
"This was cast in early October. After it was installed, it cracked on the same day." Wang Yingxuan pushed up his glasses and said
Zhao Hao picked up a fragment and took a look. The fracture was similar to a honeycomb.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡
"Master, we have raised the furnace temperature as much as possible and paid attention to the speed when casting. Why are there still bubbles?" Zhang Jian asked for advice with a puzzled look on his face.
Zhao Haoxin said, I don¡¯t know either. I have taught you everything I can teach you The coke oven has also been repaired. Increase the casting time appropriately and maintain a constant temperature for a long time so that the air in the molten iron can be slowly discharged. The reminder has arrived.
Why are there still bubbles?
"Time waits for no one, let's cast the barrel out of copper first." Zhao Hao glanced helplessly at the tatters in the wooden box. It seemed that he couldn't wait to test it slowly, so he could only afford a luxury.
But bronze cannons are made with money. Fortunately, I have the money ability, otherwise I really wouldn¡¯t be able to bear it
Mr. Zhao felt a little distressed.
