Chapter 79： Rebecca’s success and the question of magic (1/2)

"So this is the 'Rebecca Crystal' that you successfully made... well, yes, it looks the same thing."

Sitting in his big account, looking at a large basket of things that Rebeccain took, Gao Wen nodded slightly.

It is a basket of gray-black, ugly, strange materials, some loose like sand, some are tied together, but no matter what form, the inside is almost evenly embedded with countless fine particles, and compared with Rebecca For the first time, the "waste" made by the sloppy paste, the crystal grain content of this basket of finished products is significantly higher, and the average diameter of the particles seems to be much larger.

This shows that Rebecca not only found the formula, but also vaguely touched the number of ways to improve production.

When he heard Gao Wen, Rabe was very embarrassed, and Rebecca was embarrassed. Miss Viscount scratched his face, which was black and smoked, and smiled like a 17-year-old. A silly scorpion that burned explosives in a cement kiln: "Hey... ancestors, do you really think this thing can be called this name? Not all very powerful people can name something else with their own name... ”

"These crystals were invented by you. Are you not powerful enough?" Gao Wen glanced at the unconfident n+1 layer granddaughter. "Well, although there is still a lot of room for improvement, it is indeed already Repeatedly realized the 'product', the name Rebecca crystal is deserved."

Rebecca entered the state of silly music: "Hey, hehe..."

"Don't be stupid, talk about how this thing was made in the end," Gao Wen glanced at the iron-headed baby with a smile. "Although any new material appears to have luck, I still want to know." How can such good luck come to us?"

"Oh, it’s really true, it’s a coincidence," Rebecca scratched his face. "It’s actually burned according to the original recipe you gave me, but it failed yesterday when I tried to restore the firing process. Several times, no matter which ratio was used, I doubted it on the stove, so I checked the condition of several kiln and found that one of the kiln's inner wall fell off a large piece..."

“Is it a big chunk?” Gao Wen frowned, realizing that the key to the formation of these “Rebecca crystals” was probably on the pieces of the kiln wall that fell off. “So the materials for building the kiln are also involved. The reaction?"

“This is one of the reasons, because those kiln also use rune heating, so they were mixed with quartz sand when they were built, and in addition to quartz sand, another important reason is the stone from the dark mountains. ”

"The stone of the dark mountains?" Gao Wen repeated it.

"Yes, I compared several sets of records and found that there is two differences between the furnace and the other furnaces. The first is that the quartz sand used to build the kiln is mixed with the raw materials, and the second is the material used in the raw materials. Limestone was dug from the dark mountains. The limestone from the other furnaces came from the Baishui River and was transported from the west side of the logging yard. If they were used as raw materials, they would not be used even if they were mixed with quartz sand..."

Two conditions, quartz sand and limestone from the dark mountains...

Gao Wen is slightly stunned. These two conditions are the exact conclusions that Rebecca has made after multiple comparisons. Without doubting its authenticity, what role do these two things play in this process?

Quartz sand is also imaginable, because it is a weak guide material. Although it is extremely cheap, it is also a real magic material, and it is one of the raw materials for making artificial crystals. But what about limestone from the dark mountains?

Why can't limestone mined from other places?

He threw out these questions and asked Rebecca a glimpse.

Miss Viscount did not think about these details, she scratched the back of her head: "I am happy, I have not thought about it..."

“The dark mountains were once shrouded in magical waves. There are still traces of erosion by elemental tides in many places in the mountains,” Gao Wen said thoughtfully as he touched his chin. “Perhaps this process has changed the nature of some of these minerals... ...to make them have the characteristics to participate in the magic reaction?"

In the absence of more experimental data and theoretical guidance, Gao Wen can only make such a bold guess, but no matter what the real reason is, now Gao Wen has identified one thing: "Rebecca Crystal" in this The world is absolutely unique, at least in the Kingdom of Ansu.

Who would normally go to the dark mountains to dig the mountains and burn stones?

“After confirming that the key lies in quartz sand and dark mountain limestone, I tried several ways to improve the crystal proportion and quality,” Rebecca added. “I found that increasing the proportion of quartz sand can make the crystal yield higher, but A lot of crystals will be broken off when they are baked. Increasing the proportion of limestone will increase the ability of the finished product to store magic, but after a certain percentage, it will not form a crystal. And I also found that the temperature and firing time have a great influence... There are too many items to test, and I can't finish it all at once, just burn it out according to the best method I use now. Hey, that's what you are in front of you."

Gao Wen asked directly: "Can ordinary people complete this process?"

"Yes, but most people don't understand what 'cross-control' and 'observation group' you taught me, so they can only do it according to the method taught them," Rebecca replied. And they are very careless, even if they tell them how to do it, they often make mistakes in the ratio, or the time control required to burn the crystal in the wrong time is much stricter than burning bricks."

It is imperative to improve the average quality of laborers.

However, even a few qualified cultural teachers in the territory can't find out... All the people who know the word count are already overloaded. Where can I find someone to set up an education team?

Going to Tanzan town to hire? There are not a few words in the town of Tanzan! The person who can read and write is not a businessman's child or a "decent person" who has entered the aristocratic residence and served as a housekeeper and a clerk. How can these people be willing to come to such a place where the birds are not squatting, followed by the pioneers, and they are not themselves poor? Serfs and the poor...
