Chapter 199 Demons also have dreams
With current technology, it may be more troublesome to produce very advanced barrels, but producing crown caps is by no means a problem.
As long as you understand the principle of crown cover, you can actually use manual tools to produce crown covers, and it is not necessary to have a steam engine.
Having said that, if he was not sure, Li Qi would not dare to let Chitou help him produce such a bottle.
This is true. Li Qi stayed in the smelting plant for three days and explained his requirements to Agu. Agu quickly improved the design drawings of these tools for producing crown covers. Of course, they were not manual, but could be driven by a steam engine.
But Liqi still asked them to make a gland tong and some crown covers by hand.
Because he also experimented with whether the bottle was suitable or not.
In fact, food research and development is the most time-consuming because it involves food safety issues.
Among them, will the bottle react chemically with the food, whether the bottle can be disinfected at high temperatures, and the shelf life issue.
All of this takes time.
Time is money, so many people like to exchange time for money. The result is that Chinese people have a super stomach that is invincible to all poisons.
However, royal families and other races may not be willing to accept training of this nature, so Li Qi is not very brave enough to do things randomly and is very cautious. If something goes wrong, it will be over...
In fact, he has developed the formula for soda, which looks like water, and is sour and sweet.
There is only one taste.
Because he is not afraid to add too much juice at present, he tries to mix the flavor with baking soda in tangerine, tooth grass, and some sugar. This is because adding juice will greatly reduce the shelf life. Many juices will ferment under the influence of temperature and will also affect the taste. He is still developing this technology because it is produced in the Huaxia Alliance, one of the keys is the shelf life.
Why wine is suitable for China Alliance is because wine needs time to age, and as long as the process is rigorous, there will be no problems.
In fact, Li Qi had been observing the shelf life of the soda formula and had a rough data, but that was just the data of the soda itself. With this data, he could evaluate whether the bottle was suitable. If there was no such data, there might be a problem with the soda.
He first observed whether the bottle would change under high temperatures, then poured some soda into the bottle, and then sealed it with a crown cap.
And he had already sent someone to build a soda plant.
Because when Li Qi was building the factory, he had not thought of soda so that he did not build a soda soda plant, so he had to build it himself.
However, human construction technology is also strengthening.
There is no problem building a small soda plant.
Bi Fang sent another group of people there, Li Qi asked Hui to follow him, and then arranged those people to the Ministry of Agriculture.
The Ministry of Agriculture does not only produce grain, but the raw materials for food come from the Ministry of Agriculture. Li Qi's plan is that all newcomers will be placed in the Ministry of Agriculture. Men will cultivate land and women will grow fruits.
In the past, the elderly tried to arrange to work in the factory.
......
......
On that afternoon, Li Qi sat by the lake and sorted out some information, because the fact that he had done so much recently made his thoughts a little messy. He had to re-examine it to avoid missing something.
"Huh! I'm so exhausted!"
Li Qi shook his neck, picked up the coffee on the table, and drank it lightly. As soon as he put it down, he suddenly saw Hanying coming over and said, "Hanying, do you know how to massage? Just pinch it or something?"
"I will crush your bones." Han Ying sat down. Obviously, she knew what massage meant.
"When I didn't say it."
Li Qi rolled his eyes, suddenly remembered the temperature of the forging, and asked seriously: "By the way! How is your ice true energy practicing?"
Han Ying shook her head and said, "It's not going well."
Li Qi hurriedly asked, "Where are you in trouble?"
"It's not difficult either, it's just... it's just that I'm not talented enough."
"Unsolved."
Han Ying sighed lightly: "If you want to practice the Ice Palm, you need to have enough ice true energy. However, I am not a perfect demon clan, and there is not much essence in my body. This is slow to improve, and there will be even less ice true energy. It seems that it is very difficult to practice the Ice Palm."
If she can't practice Han Ice Palm, she can't refrigerate from the air and can't help me produce gun barrels. Although Li Qi doesn't quite understand what Han Ying means, she knows what she wants, but he can't show it. She has a master style and said: "You have to practice diligently, and I think you must be lazy."
Han Ying said: "I think so too, but I am not lazy, but I follow you everywhere every day. How can I calm down and practice?"
"Well.......!"
Li Qi said embarrassedly: "It just so happens that I won't go anywhere lately, so you can go to practice with peace of mind."
Han Ying shook her head and sighed: "This is not enough. Actually, I have been looking for a place to practice, but unfortunately I have never found it."
Li Qi said curiously: "Is there any particularity in this?"
Han Ying nodded and said, "Everything has spirits. Whether it is water or mountains, they contain spiritual energy. I think if I can find a place with strong spiritual energy to practice, it may be of great help to me. It's a pity..."
Li Qi asked, "What a pity?"
Han Ying said with a little regret: "It's a pity that your place is a barren land, and the spiritual energy contained in the vicinity is very thin, far less than the forests in our demon clan."
If it were the past, Li Qi might not understand it very much, but now he understands it very much.
The place where the perfect demon tribe lives is naturally a fertile place, and of course it is not as good as that here.
However, Li Qi is currently in need of Hanying to be able to practice Hanying Palm because it is really helpful for forging technology. Forging is nothing more than cold forging and hot forging, but they are very advanced technical foundations. There are still many difficulties to overcome when the technology develops to that point, but if the Hanying can cool down instantly, melting can warm up instantly. The fusion of ice and fire, just think about it, Li Qi is excited!
How much trouble does this save!
Li Qi pondered for a while, suddenly a light flashed in his eyes and said, "Actually... there is actually a place that may be suitable for you to practice."
A surprise light flashed through Hanying's indifferent eyes, "Where?"
Li Qi opened his mouth, pondered for a while, and said, "That is the treasure land of our China Alliance. Unfortunately, you are not a member of the China Alliance, this..."
"Do you want me to join your China Alliance?" Han Ying is not stupid, she just doesn't like to beat around the bush.
Li Qi nodded and said, "Of course, I had already repayed the kindness of your demon clan for me when I saved you, but now I have taught you the Nine Yin Scriptures and I will take out a piece of treasure land from our Huaxia Alliance for you to practice. Then you pat your butt and leave after you practice it... Then do you think this is appropriate?"
Han Ying said: "Then let it go!"
Li Qi was stunned, "Wow! You are too unmotivated. Don't you want to become stronger?"
Han Ying said: "If I just want to become stronger, then why should I practice the Nine Yin Scriptures? I wouldn't have come here at all."
She just didn't want to become a perfect demon clan, so she fell into this place.
Li Qi smiled and said, "I don't know what the price of you becoming a perfect demon clan is, but in fact I think this is a matter of heaven and earth. If you want to get it, you have to pay. Otherwise, why am I so tired every day? I also want to be as leisurely as you, wandering around. Don't others want to open their mouths and clothes to reach out, but if everyone thinks so, who will farm? Everyone will starve to death."
Han Ying said: "But I didn't ask for anything."
Li Qi smiled and said, "Then why do you have to practice the Nine Yin Scriptures so hard? I don't believe you are trying to make ice for me."
When Han Ying heard this, a hint of embarrassment flashed in her eyes.
Li Qi smiled and said, "I guess you want to prove that you can become a perfect demon clan in other ways."
Han Ying looked at Li Qi in shock.
"Don't look at me like that, I'll be shy."
Li Qi smiled and said, "You see, my skills are like a waste. If I don't even have this method, then I am really a waste. But I support you very much, because whether it is a human or a demon, you must pursue something and have your own dreams. If you just spend the rest of your life in a daze, what's the point of living? Moreover, I believe there are many demon races like you. If you can succeed, you can help them. What a meaningful thing."
Han Ying's cold face showed a touch and asked, "Then what is the price I paid?"
Li Qi smiled and said, "It's very equal, it's just helping me fulfill my dream."
Han Ying glanced at Li Qi in confusion.
Li Qi said: "My dream is very simple, which is to make our China Alliance richer and stronger, but I can't do it alone."
Han Ying seemed a little hesitant. This is really not simple. Race evolution is the most difficult thing.
Li Qi smiled and said, "I'm talking about the Huaxia Alliance, which includes the beasts living in the Huaxia Alliance. Since that's the case, of course, it can also include those demons driven out."
Han Ying looked at Li Qi in shock.
Li Qi said: "My China Alliance never minds accommodating other races, because if you zoom in and see 10,000 times, we have always lived with other races. If that's the case, why bother so clearly?"
His words were exactly what Han Ying thought. In fact, Han Ying was always confused and she didn't know what to do next. Therefore, she was just a hotel in the China Alliance. She never thought of staying in the China Alliance. After all, it was not of the same race.
But Li Qi's words made her start to rethink the meaning of the Huaxia Alliance to her.
Little did he know that Li Qi was saying beautifully, because he knew that there were no many demons willing to live in this barren land, and maybe not. As long as there were not many, they could be controlled and provided great help to him. He thought this deal was very cost-effective.
After a while, Han Ying suddenly asked, "Where is that place?"
