Chapter 231 The Message of the Folding Crane 15. The Illustrious Royal Academy of the Royal Capital (Part 2)

― ― "Light silver" is the name of aluminum in this world.

As mentioned earlier, light silver aluminum is an element that is as widespread in this world as on Earth.

However, as in the case of the earth, most of them exist in the earth's crust as compounds, and it is extremely rare for them to exist alone. Aluminum compounds are famous for their bauxite and bauxite, but the presence of bauxite and bauxite was also known in this world. Crowe has also used the product bought from a material store before as an infectious agent for dyeing grass and trees.

It has been used for various purposes on Earth since ancient times, but in this world the situation was slightly different. Due to the development of magic technology, a small portion of the applications of Ming (Mio) and Ming (Bang) were replaced by magic. As an example, there are antiperspirant and deodorant agents known today for the use of Akai (Mio), but these were more easily substituted by the magic of [purification (clean)], so there was little reason to use Akai (Mio), Akai (Mio), and Ban.

That said, there are many uses and there are occasional ones in the material store, and Crowe also used the product bought there as a contaminant.

However, most people did not dream that the light silver (aluminum) compound of this instrumental poor material, Ming (Mio) (Bang), was light silver (aluminum). The colors and shapes are completely different.

Those with a high level of [appraisal] skills knew that Ming (Mio) and Ban (Ban) were compounds of light silver (aluminum), but they did not divulge their knowledge to others.

On the other hand, it is "light silver".

Aluminum alone is rare in this world.

Although it was recognized as a material for jewelry because of its shining silver colour, it was regarded as almost invisible for practicality. It is soft anyway. For blacksmiths who believe that metals and the like are hard and numb, they are merely pockets and half-end objects. There is a demand for sculptural materials, but it does not require the same amount.

Due to the small absolute quantity, there was no need for material development, and alloys such as bismuth and duralumin were never developed.

As such, light silver (aluminum) in this world is a high value jewelry, but demand is low, in a sense, it has become a maniacal material. There is almost no circulation. How do you expect to get such light silver?

It may be difficult to obtain as a mineral specimen, but if it is processed into jewelry, etc., wouldn't it be possible to obtain it?

"Hmm... I'm sure it's easier that way."... but what does the royal family use for its light silver triangle? "

"Well... I don't know that much, and even if I did, I wouldn't be able to speak." However, if this is that Goinjin tangle, then there must be some kind of use. "

"It's like that half-tipped thing..."

The dwarf's expression was also unconvincing, but he decided to take a step back and feel comfortable that there might be a usage that they didn't know about. But--

But even if that's the case, how are you going to get the light silver?

As mentioned above, there is almost no naturally occurring single-layer light silver (aluminum). Although some people knew that light silver was a compound of light silver (aluminum), the technology to extract rare light silver from the familiar material, light silver (aluminum), was not established. Aluminum refining requires electrolysis technology. In this world of reliance on magic, it is a technology that has not been established.

No... strictly speaking, the method of extracting light silver (aluminum) from the Ming Dynasty through electrolysis was known to a very limited group of people. However, because of the enormous costs involved, it is currently not considered that it does not suit the price.

"Well... we don't have to worry about getting sick that much." As far as we are concerned-- "

”Hmm... somehow I'll get the specimen and do some kind of test”

It would be about that much Kanoyama.
