Chapter 39 New Industrial Arrangements
  In recent days, Lin Feng has been living a happy life.

Magistrate Zhang is not here, so he has the final say on all county government affairs. Although Magistrate Zhang doesn't like to be in charge, after all, he has to report everything and have to say nice things, which is very tiring.

In the morning, I listened to what affairs each county government office had to report. If not, I went to the Old City Renovation Headquarters for advice. I felt very happy watching the ever-changing construction site.

In the afternoon, I usually go to the Minzhuang Team to train with them. On the one hand, I need to keep track of their training progress, eat and train together to enhance their relationship, and ensure that I can firmly grasp this force if something happens.

On the other hand, Lin Feng himself also had to train. After gaining space, his body got better and better through daily energy storage, and his strength continued to increase. He could lift more than a hundred kilograms of stone locks with one hand, but After all, he has no fighting skills, so he needs to train hard.

In the evening, I went back to Lin's house to drink tea and brag with Li Xiongzhen and the others. Except for the lack of a beautiful secretary with red sleeves to add fragrance, this life was indeed very fulfilling.

However, it is not without worries. The main reason is that the people's livelihood in Fugu County has been in decline in the past few years. It should be said that the entire Shaanxi, especially the north, has been severely damaged by war, has lost a large number of people, and the economic foundation is so poor that it is difficult to do any business.

Although several industries of the Zhenming Group are taken care of by the county government, the overall portfolio is only so small, and the business is average. They can barely maintain a balance of payments, and there is still a long way to go before they can make a lot of money and accumulate food.

Some time ago, Lin Feng convened everyone for a collective discussion, but he could not come up with a good industrial project. The ancients were not fools. They had easy ways to make money and easy-to-implement technologies. They had already done it, and they were still waiting for you to make money.

The coal stove industry is relatively feasible. One is that it is still late August and the weather is relatively hot, which is not a good time to start this project. The other is that this product is also easy to be imitated and cannot be used as a flagship product.

When Lin Feng was thinking hard and had no clue, good luck suddenly came.

As the saying goes, if there are difficulties, open the blind box.

I opened a suitcase last night. I guess it belongs to a junior high school student. In addition to regular clothes, there is also a set of "Junior High School Chemistry" textbooks and a book "Interesting Chemistry Knowledge". It seems that he is a top student in chemistry and never leaves home. Forget to study.

But maybe his parents forced him to bring it, and the poor kid had to study during the trip. At this time, Lin Feng couldn't wait to give his parents a big thumbs up. You guys are so awesome.

"Junior High School Chemistry" teaches the basic concepts of chemistry, the states and properties of matter, common chemical reactions, etc. It lacks immediately usable knowledge, but it is still very helpful for establishing the chemistry discipline in Daming and creating the chemical industry in the future.

The most useful book is "Interesting Chemistry Knowledge", which contains a series of chemical knowledge necessary for joking about time travel, and explains in detail how to produce practical chemical products in ancient times.

Looking at the catalog, you can see that the essential skills for time travel include making alkali using earth methods, the skills necessary for time traveling using earth methods for coking, and the skills necessary for time traveling using earth methods for making perfume...

Lin Feng was so happy that he almost jumped up. Isn't this tailor-made for him?
  Lin Feng immediately started reading eagerly in the space. He promised that he had never read a book so seriously since he was in kindergarten. It seems that the need leads to learning.

So don’t blame today’s students for not loving studying. The main reason is that there is no urgent pressure to survive.

After reading for a while, Lin Feng felt reassured. Although it contained basic principles and it was impossible for an interesting reading to describe detailed industrial processes, the main thing was that the manufacturing methods written in it were all applicable to ancient times. As long as there are many You should be able to make it after a few experiments.

The essential series for time travel is not very long. It only contains the refining principles and methods of more than a dozen products, and the total is less than 30 pages. Lin Feng finished it quickly.

Lin Feng closed the book and thought about it carefully, and decided to focus on the two technologies of indigenous coking and indigenous alkali production in the next step to produce the Zhenming Group's flagship products.

Homemade coking mainly produces coke. The use of coke can greatly increase the flame temperature and is an important industrial foundation. In the future, steelmaking and glass firing will be inseparable from high temperatures.

Coal can be produced in three states: solid, liquid and gas through carbonization. Among them, the solid one is coke, the liquid one is coal tar, which can be fractionated to produce ammonia, and the gaseous one is coke oven gas. This was difficult to collect in ancient times, so it was not considered for use. Needless to say, alkali production is widely used. In the future, alkali will be needed whether it is degreasing wool or firing glass.

The main raw materials for the ammonia-alkali method introduced in the key book are sodium chloride (salt) and calcium carbonate (limestone). Ammonia plays an intermediary role. This ammonia can just be obtained through coking.

Now there is a lot of high-quality coal in Fugu, limestone is also very common, and salt can be bought easily if you have money. Is there any more suitable industry than coking and alkali production?

At this moment, Lin Feng felt that he was like the chosen one. The theoretical and material foundation for industrial take-off was finally in place.

After thinking about the new industrial plan, Lin Feng went ahead and rushed to Lin's house immediately, summoning Li Xiongzhen, Zhang Tiechui, Fang Dashan and others to study the implementation plan.

After a few people had arrived, Lin Feng immediately said: "After thinking about it for the past few days, I suddenly remembered that a book I had read introduced a very useful technology, which is coking technology. Next we need to focus on it. Research this technology.”

"What is coking?" Li Xiongzhen asked puzzledly.

"It uses coal as raw material to refine coke."

"What is the use of this coke?"

"Coke can greatly increase the burning temperature, which can probably double the burning temperature of ordinary coal. Hammer, do you think this is useful?" Lin Feng said.

"If the temperature can be doubled, it will be much easier to make iron." Zhang Tiechui has been making iron since he was a child, so he naturally knows the importance of temperature in iron making.

"How come this technology really exists? I haven't heard of it before. Where do you see distant mountains from?" Li Xiongzhen asked in confusion.

"Whether the technology is real still needs to be verified, but there is a high probability that it is real. I can't remember which book it comes from. This is not important. What is important is to test this technology." Lin Feng couldn't say it was from space, so he just said carelessly.

"What should we do?" Zhang Tiechui asked with concern.

"Xiong Zhenqian is responsible for buying a yard in a suitable place outside the city. It should be larger and close to the water source. It will be used as a refining site in the future. Money is not a problem." Lin Feng said generously.

"Understood!" Li Xiongzhen replied.

"Tiehammer, after the yard is purchased, you can take people to build an earthen kiln, similar to a kiln for burning bricks. I will tell you the specific site. Then I will buy some high-quality coal and bring it back for later use." Lin Feng continued to make arrangements.

"Yes!" Zhang Tiechui replied crisply.

"Da Shan, you are mainly responsible for considering the safety and security of the compound. This technology is very important and must be kept strictly confidential. No unrelated personnel are allowed to enter the test area."

"Understood, I will definitely make arrangements!" Fang Dashan replied.
