118. Crusade (middle)
Luo Wei didn't originally plan to use the technology of refining in the local way so quickly, but now he doesn't care about the consequences.
Lodell was seriously injured for hundreds of lives, and he couldn't swallow this breath no matter how much.
Even if you need to take on some dangers yourself, you must continue to do so.
As for the environmental pollution caused, it is not within the scope of consideration.
Choosing an abandoned quarry for refining is already his greatest kindness to the world, and air pollution cannot be avoided anyway.
Luo Wei took out the finished refining furnace from the space backpack. A very simple and crude device, a simple description is a pot, a lid, a tube, and three eyes!
To put it bluntly, it is to place the oil in a sealed thick-walled iron pan. Add a sealed lid and there is a rotating shaft under the lid, which can add blades to stir the oil.
In addition, insert a tube on the lid so that the boiling oil and gas will float out. After the pipe is water-cooled, the first thing condenses is diesel. The diesel will flow out of the first eye, and the other lighter oil and gas will float further away, and will condense into kerosene at the second eye. The farthest floating is undoubtedly gasoline. As for the gas coming out of the pipe, people generally call it natural gas.
Experienced refiners can even refine high-grade gasoline!
There are too many criticisms about local oil refining.
For example, security.
It is dangerous to cook crude oil when it is heated. With the current sealing conditions, it is difficult to ensure that there is no oil leakage. Once there are oil stains on the ground, or the oil and gas content in the air is too high, and the wind blows Mars, it may trigger a chain reaction.
Therefore, after the refining furnace was built, Lovie had never used it at all.
Who is fine to play with fire?
Including gunpowder, normal people see these flammable and explosive dangerous items. The first idea is to hide away.
This is the instinct of seeking profit and avoiding harm by people. They will only be considered and measured unless they encounter greater dangers. The right to meet the two harms is the least...
This time, Lodell almost died, and Lovey also made up his mind.
If you want to kill me, I will kill you even if I try my best!
Suddenly, a huge explosion sounded, and accompanied by the air waves, the iron lid of the refining furnace was lifted away by dozens of meters high.
The guards standing nearby were frightened.
"What the hell are you doing!" Lodell rushed over after hearing the news.
"Prepare for the fight against heresy." Lovie replied inexplicably.
"By this?" Lodell looked at the burning scene in front of him, and gradually became a little lost.
"Lord, do you need help?" Xidan suggested.
Luo Wei did not refuse, but just told Xidan to choose someone who was enough to trust. The refining technology of tinea oil must be kept strictly confidential.
Shidan naturally knew the importance of it. About an hour later, two apprentices came.
Two thin girls looked only twelve or thirteen years old. In such cold weather, they were only wearing a long-sleeved shirt and straw sandals.
"Lord?"
They bowed timidly to Lovey.
"Don't be afraid." Luo Wei smiled kindly and ordered the servant to bring two thick clothes: "Have you eaten?"
The two nodded vigorously.
"What you have to do is very simple. Watch me do it first." Lowe demonstrated the steps of rotating the handle of the refining furnace and adding firewood.
It looks very easy to operate, and it is more brainless than polishing a bar stone.
"Lord, don't worry, leave it to us." said a girl with gray hair.
"Child, things are not that simple." Love cannot face their innocent eyes, and his heart is filled with guilt: "You can see first, this job is very dangerous.
I'll tell you as much as possible about refining. First of all, it's a kind of tinea oil."
Love poured a little of the finished product on the ground and lit it casually. The flames burned on the stones and then went out after a long time: "Don't think it's no big deal. This kind of tincture oil cannot be extinguished."
Worry flashed in the eyes of the two girls.
"If you see that stove is not there, if Mars accidentally ignite the grease, you will..." Love's mouth simulated the sound of an explosion and made a vivid move.
Bang...
"Lord, if that happens, will we die?" The child aged a little trembled instinctively.
"I can't guarantee that it may be a high probability of being injured." After all, it was so far away, and Lovey thought to himself that there was no big problem.
"Lord, if it's really a very dangerous job, you can't take the risk yourself, right?" A forced smile squeezed out on the gray-haired girl's face.
"If you are careful enough, there will be no problem," Lovie comforted.
I have to say that with the lords taking the lead, they were like taking a reassurance.
The two of them had simple thoughts. Since Love both took action by themselves, it was obvious that no matter how dangerous it was, it would be much less dangerous.
At most, it's just injured.
It's impossible to be more dangerous than mining coal.
In the next three days, the refining furnace exploded seven times and five times in front of Lovey.
These two girls are also brave. Seeing that Lovie is not afraid of a man, they actually adapted slowly and became more and more skillful in operating.
After taking over completely, Lovey promised to give them a high salary of ten silver dollars a month.
"Lord, do you have something to come to me?" Xidan was summoned by Lovie. She guessed in her heart that it must be about tinder oil, but the result was not unexpected.
Lovi introduced several oil usages to Hiden.
Diesel can now be used to remove rust from metals.
Kerosene can replace expensive meat fat and bring cheap light.
Gasoline is unstable in nature and is prone to evaporation, so it must be stored with great care.
The common point of the three is that they are easy to ignite and are dangerous goods. Especially gasoline, which is the most dangerous.
Xidan was obviously more interested in kerosene. After asking for a bucket to try, she was ecstatic to give Lovey a feedback on how useful kerosene was.
Originally, I used ordinary grease, but I could only use it for a few hours at most, and I didn’t use up kerosene for the whole night!
Moreover, the cost seems to be lower!
No, it's simply waste utilization!
Xidan secretly admired Lovie and imagined the scene of the city not falling into the night.
This is just a small episode, and Love is now all about strife.
As time goes by, more and more gasoline is loaded into his space backpack, and his confidence increases.
Finally, the day of going to war comes.
Lovi refused Hiden's request to send troops to assist, and simply led the original team to the place where Darm was.
"Are you sure?" Lodell said worriedly.
"Ninety percent sure." Luo Wei's calm and confident attitude.
The earth burning scene flashed in front of Lodell's eyes: "You, don't show off!"
"You are!" Luo Wei was speechless.
It was really her luck to survive. Because the stone was not of great quality and seemed to have too high clay content, she gave her a chance to cut it open.
Even so, Lodell was still severely injured and his muscles were strained all over his body.
If Lovi had not used the leaves of the Tree of Life in time, he would have been unable to escape the paralysis.
