After unloading the supplies on the ship, Yang Fan asked the Huotou Army to boil water and everyone took a bath. This order left the officers and soldiers in a daze. Take a shower. It’s been a long time since I took a shower.
Yang Fan's personal barracks has organized immigrants many times and has experience in handling personal hygiene. They used plastic woven cloth to build a bathtub and burlap cloth as bath towels, and thoroughly cleaned all these people.
Rinse your scalp and hair with warm water to kill lice and lice eggs. It's just a bit hot and uncomfortable. There is also a folk remedy, which is to wash your hair with kerosene, which can kill lice.
When Zhang Shize gets back the Menghuo oil, Yang Fan can distill gasoline, kerosene, diesel and asphalt. When the time comes, shave their body hair and wash their heads with kerosene to eliminate the lice.
These people took a hot bath and each of them wiped off almost half a kilogram of old mud. I finally have my skin’s original color.
Yang Fan believes that the morale of an army comes from its neat military appearance. An army of sloppy beggars will not be effective in combat.
What these people didn't expect was that when they came out of the shower, they found that their clothes were missing. Their rags were thrown into cauldrons and sterilized with boiling water.
The officers here were waiting to measure their bodies, and there were also some doctors who accompanied the army to check their bodies. Check for infectious diseases and other diseases.
Finally, they were given new clothes, underwear, shoes and socks.
These people haven't been issued new military uniforms in more than ten years. They were all as happy as the Chinese New Year.
Although these military uniforms are weird, they are easy to put on and take off. It also moves very neatly, and is more suitable for the crawling training life than the robe.
In the evening, when these soldiers, who had been cleaned and put on new military uniforms, stood in front of Yang Fan again, they could clearly feel that their temperament had changed. It looks like an army.
The queue training these days has obviously also played an role. The soldiers' eyes also became brighter, no longer the dull and numb eyes before.
Dinner is white rice and braised fatty pork.
Each person filled a large pointed pot, and then poured a large spoonful of stewed braised pork that melted in the mouth. The fragrant red soup soaked the rice, and just looking at it made people want to turn into gourmets. , swallowed it down in a voracious meal.
Uncle Dingyuan kept his word. He said to eat meat, he would eat meat. If you say eat white rice, eat white rice.
He immediately gained the trust and love of all officers and soldiers.
They had been deceived by Shangguan until they were numb. The civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty were all professional liars, just cheating. Next time, I will find another reason and continue to lie. Keep lying. The soldiers were all afraid.
It was only when they arrived at Nanyuan that they realized for the first time that they were soldiers. For the first time, I knew what an army should look like. Over the years, I have hardly lived in a regular army.
In the afternoon, another group of carriages drove into the Dahongmen. Zhang Shize came back with ten loads of fire oil.
Zhang Shize parked the motorcade outside the house where Yang Fan worked, and a stench suddenly rushed through the door.
The fume made Yang Fan and the two ladies immediately stop working and come out to check.
Most petroleum products have a strong odor, which is caused by the different volatile components contained in the petroleum. Petroleum with a high content of aromatic components has an ether odor, while petroleum with a high content of sulfide emits a strong and pungent odor.
Under the sun, Zhang Shize bared his teeth and smiled proudly. There were ten loads of fuel behind him. The carriages of these carriages were covered with oilcloth, and the cracks outside were twisted using the boat-twisting method. It seems that this kind of vehicle is specially used to transport crude oil.
"How about it? If I say I can get it, I can get it. Are your equipment ready? My Menghuo oil has been delivered."
Yang Fan excitedly came to the car to watch. Use a wooden stick to pick up some viscous fire oil and watch the liquid slide down like paint. That's right, this is it, this is crude oil.
"How's it going? Can it be used?" Xiao Niangpi moved her handkerchief dancer's nose and mouth, and came over, asking in an angry voice.
"It's not a big problem, you can give it a try." Yang Fan said.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's start right away." Zhang Shize couldn't wait any longer.
Everyone drove the carriage under the distillation tower and started loading.
Yang Fan's device uses a heating method for distillation. Crude oil distillation uses the kettle distillation method. The crude oil is fed into the distillation kettle intermittently and heated under the kettle for distillation.
However, the efficiency of a single distillation still was too low. Yang Fan connected 10 stills in series and fed crude oil continuously. This device is called continuous tank distillation.
As the still is heated, the reaction gradually begins. With different temperatures, different oils will come out.
Before 130 degrees, the first thing to come out is gasoline. It accounts for approximately 4.2% of the total mass of crude oil. The gasoline that leaked out was collected in a large jar weighing 50 pounds and sealed.
"Master, is this yellow liquid gasoline?" Lin Yueru felt dizzy smelling the smell of gasoline.
"Yes, these are gasoline, the raw materials for us to make incendiary bombs."
Xiao Niangpi said: "It seems that the output is not very high." That's why there is so much crude oil. "
Yang Fan comforted her and said: "Don't worry, there is other oil. Increase the temperature."
The soldiers began to add a small amount of coal under the firewood, and the firepower immediately came up and the temperature began to rise. When the temperature is 130--180 degrees, as the temperature increases, liquid flows out again.
This time it's a yellowish clear liquid.
Yang Fan knew that what came out this time was kerosene. Quickly ask the soldiers to use jars to collect kerosene from the pipes.
Pure kerosene is a colorless and transparent liquid, which turns pale yellow when containing impurities. Slightly smelly. This time, Xiao Niangpi and the others took away their handkerchiefs. The smell of kerosene is minimal.
Kerosene is volatile and flammable. After evaporation, it mixes with air to form an explosive gas mixture.
Kerosene burns completely with sufficient brightness, stable flame, no black smoke, no lanterns, no obvious odor, and little environmental pollution.
Zhang Shize looked at the clear kerosene and couldn't help but ask, "What can this oil be used for?"
Yang Fan said: "This oil is used to make lamp oil. Mass production is cheap and bright. This is a big business. Selling lamp oil is a big market. After all, who doesn't light lamps?"
After saying this, everyone suddenly became interested. Who wouldn’t be interested in a big business that can make money?
Soon, the kerosene ran out. Kerosene accounts for approximately 9.9% of crude oil.
"That's gone," Xiao Niangpi looked at the discharge pipe curiously. There is already a trickle there.
"Well, there's only so much kerosene, it should be gone. Let's continue heating." Yang Fan picked up the pipe, looked at it and said.
Soon the temperature reached 180~350c. At this time, new oil came out. The colors that came out this time were more mixed and have been unstable. Appearance: water white, light yellow or tan liquid.
Yang Fan knew that the oil was diesel.
