Born In England

Chapter 2: A quick way to cash in!

"It's impossible to work part-time for a lifetime, don't even try to save a thousand pounds for a lifetime of work!" Li Lin secretly analyzed in his heart.

If he wants to get a thousand pounds quickly, he can only do business, but he has no capital to do business!

By buying lottery tickets?

I don't know if a lottery ticket has been invented this year! Even if there is, it depends on luck.

The stock market?

What's more, he never paid any attention to this aspect in his previous life!

"It seems that we can only make money by relying on some knowledge from previous lives."

Like, invent something?

Invented aunt paper?

I don't know if there is any aunt paper in this era!

Invented TT?

But the process of how to turn rubber into a TT is a bit difficult, giving up...

"Hey, yes, I can invent a cigarette filter!" Li Lin suddenly thought of this little invention!

In his previous life, he was an old smoker, and he also had a special understanding of the development history of cigarettes.

He clearly remembered that in 1925, Boris experimented in the Ortmann factory of Zou Paper Industry and applied for a patent for making cigarette filters with crepe paper and cellulose flakes.

And since 1927, it has cooperated with FILTRONIC, a subsidiary of Bangzou, to produce cigarette filters. Since then, human cigarettes have entered the era of cigarette filters.

Making cigarette filters is not difficult for Li Lin.

"It's up to you!" Thinking of this, Li Lin took the money and went out and went straight to a small shop on the street in the Huaxia community.

Reluctantly, she bought a pack of cigarettes and a bit of cellulose paper, and then returned to her residence.

He plans to start making cigarette filters now and connect them to cigarettes.

He had thought about the filler of the cigarette filter, it was just cotton + activated carbon + cotton + cellulose floc!

Then the cigarette filter is wrapped with cigarette paper and paste, and then connected with this year's filterless cigarettes with a piece of paper wrapped with paste!

It may not look very beautiful, but what he wants is this general invention, to apply for a patent!

"Cotton?" Li Lin knew that there was definitely no cotton to buy nearby, so he could only find a cotton shirt, cut a small hole with a knife, and pulled out a few **** of cotton from it.

"Finally, it's activated carbon!"

As a functional carbon material with strong adsorption capacity, activated carbon is mainly used in food and beverage, medicine, water treatment, chemical industry and other fields in past and present life.

It is also used on cigarette filters!

Even some high-end cigarette filters have activated carbon.

Li Lin knows that activated carbon can be formed by carbonization of uniform coal particles. Of course, if he makes it himself now, it is estimated that the product is not qualified, but it is not important. The important thing is to let others have activated carbon in the filter.

It just so happens that most of them here usually use coal to boil water for cooking, so they fiddled with a little coal, crushed it into small particles, and started to fully carbonize and burn them...

Two hours passed in a flash.

In one breath, he fiddled with ten cigarettes with cigarette filters.

The cigarette filters are all wrapped with cigarette paper, and then the cigarette filters and cigarettes are wrapped with a piece of paper again, and glued together with paste, but he found that the paste tasted strong, so he switched to sticky porridge soup.

"Huh... I finally succeeded! I'll apply for a patent tomorrow!"

The next day, he took a day off and went straight to apply for a patent.

It has to be said that the UK has done a very good job in patent application services in this era.

One day he filled out the information and submitted the application.

Next, it was a long wait.

In the days that followed, he was forced to continue to follow a few Tang buddies to the pier to move bricks.

In a flash, four months have passed.

this day.

He received an email from the Patent Office.

Open it up!

"Hey...I didn't expect the application to be approved so quickly!" Li Lin looked at the patent book in his hand, and he felt inexplicably excited.

Originally, he thought that he would have to wait six months, or even longer, but he did not expect to receive a patent in four months.

It seems that the efficiency of the Patent Office is good.

"Tomorrow, I'm going to sell my patent, hoping to sell it. If it doesn't sell, then it's really Barbie Q!" Li Lin prayed secretly in his heart.

The next day, I took a day off and went directly to a cigarette factory in Liverpool.

Yes, in 1881, a cigarette machine with a daily production of 120,000 cigarettes was granted an invention patent, and cigarette factories were gradually established in some parts of Europe and the United States. Before that, cigarettes were made by hand.

Coincidentally, there is a cigarette factory in Liverpool!

But when he came to the door of the cigarette factory, let alone sales, the two security guards at the door wouldn't let him in at all. If he hadn't run fast, his legs would have been broken!

"Damn it! The fantasy is beautiful, but the reality is cruel!" Li Lin walked back under the scorching sun.

After thinking about it, he was unwilling to give up, and planned to try his luck in the largest cigarette trading market in Liverpool.

After half an hour, he came to the hoisting market.

He directly picked one of the largest cigarette wholesale stores and walked in.

At this moment, he saw a fat-headed, blond middle-aged man smoking a cigarette while reading a book.

Seeing Li Lin come in, UU read www. uukanshu.com Jonas frowned: "Little devil, what are you doing here?"

"Hello, my name is Li Lin. I want to recommend an invention about cigarettes to you! I think you will be interested!" Li Lin said hurriedly.

Seeing that the foreign kid in front of him could speak fluent English, Jonas was slightly surprised, especially when he heard that there was an invention related to cigarettes, he immediately became interested.

"What invention?"

"Cigarette filter!" Li Lin took out a pack of cigarettes he had prepared for a long time, and took out one to show the other party.

"Cigarette filters, as the name suggests, are specially designed to filter the smoke in the mouth, filter the harmful substances burned by tobacco, and purify the taste of the smoke, such as reducing the inhalation of tar and nicotine, which is good for the body." Li Lin said while lighting a Root, took a few puffs, then pinched it out, then took apart the filter, and saw that the cotton inside had turned yellow!

After Jonas read it, he said with some interest, "Show it to me!"

"Give~"

After Jonas took it and looked at it, he really thought this little invention was quite interesting.

But these days, the idea that smoking is harmful to health has not been formed, so he just thinks this invention is more interesting, but he doesn't think it is a very good invention!

After studying for a while, he handed it back to Li Lin and said, "It's an interesting invention, but I don't need it!"

Seeing that the other party refused, Li Lin was not disappointed. After all, he didn't think that a casual introduction would be very interesting!

Unless you invent the elixir!

So, you still need to be fooled, and you need a three-inch tongue to fool you!

"Sir, don't be too busy to refuse, I'll give you a detailed popular science!"
