It Seems I Came to Another World, Now What Should I Do

Episode 434: A soap has been created that is likely to precipitate salt.

Satisfied with eating on schedule, Nico and smiling Tesla lead the way to the parking lot. I wait in the carriage, waiting to pull the horse from the stables. The horses also walk in a good mood to see if they got a meal. Tesla connects the horse to the carriage and ascends to your podium.

"Are you done with your inspection?

"I've got something I'd like to try at the Lordship Hall, so let's go back."

With that said, Tesla slowly puts out the carriage. Proceed with the carriage in a slower rhythm than usual with Pokupok.

"Are you drunk? Are you okay?"

"It's a broken picket, and I don't feel particularly drunk. Just in case, we're just going slowly."

Tesla recounts.

"Good for you. Can Tesla drink alcohol?

"About a bottle would be fine. You're making me sick more than that."

"Oh, don't get drunk, you're gonna make me sick"

"Yes. It's only a little while before you get drunk. Soon you'll be conscious."

"No intelligence, no scouts, no training to say that?

When I hear that, Tesla leans her neck Mmm.

"None... right? Because there are personal differences. Basically, I don't drink at work, and I know how much I get drunk, so I don't drink that much."

Oh, the work ethic is thorough. I also feel like God's hand is in this. Well, if it's going to be decent, have you ever been over it?

"Okay. Relieved."

With all that chatter, I come back to the Lords' Palace. The guard opens the gate when I show my face and wave.

Get off at the rotary in front of the front door. Tesla said she was going to take care of the horses and train them.

"If you need anything, I'll be in the troop room, so call me."

I say so and thank you and move on with the carriage to the back.

I guess we all train in town. With that in mind, we head towards the warehouse. There is something I would like to try with the seaweed, shells and waste oil that I have brought home. I am also dissatisfied with the current soap. No matter how much it dries, it's still soft and melts fast. I use oak ash to make soap, so I will be making soap from potassium carbonate. I want to change the way it is made.

Add the seaweed brought back to the cheap iron pan I bought and cook it until it turns bright white at once with the fire magic that raised the temperature. Sodium carbonate can be extracted by baking salt plants.

< sue. 'Attribute Control (Tue)' exceeded 1.00. >

Oh. Long time no see, Doctor. Have you finally exceeded 1.00 in fire magic? I wonder what I can do. If I can do more like the Great Demon King, I'm going to knock something out.

< Solution. This will result in an increase in the upper limit temperature and an increase in the effect range. >

... After all, the Great Demon King. But does the temperature also rise? I wonder how much it goes up. Normally I could have let it out when I was ready to over-return about a thousand and six hundred degrees...

Burn down the seaweed. I packed one in a wine barrel pretty neatly and brought it home, so it turned out to be a good amount. Put it back in the barrel.

Next up is the shell. Cleanly washed with brine and dried repeatedly, so there should be almost no seawater component. Place in an iron pan and increase the temperature and cook.

If you raise it to about eight hundred and fifty degrees and let it burn (or burn) and spit out carbon dioxide in a sealed state, the calcium oxide point would be raw lime. Cover the entire shell with fire magic and cook at about 900 degrees. Yeah, the duration is growing. I don't feel any signs of an excessive return at all. When I burned it for a while, it came bright white, so I beat it with a hammer and it became brittle and shattered. If I keep this, I will react with carbon dioxide again and return to calcium carbonate.

When the water is grown little by little with it in the pan, it gives off hot air while saying bubbly. Slowly water the reaction until the reaction is gone. Now we have calcified the lime. Calcium hydroxide.

If calcium hydroxide solution and sodium carbonate solution are reacted, calcium carbonate will precipitate and sodium hydroxide will be made. It's been a long time. This is one of the reasons I wanted a route to the sea. If soap is made with sodium carbonate or sodium hydroxide, it can be salted.

However, there are only trial-and-errors when it comes to strict doses. The calcifying lime that has subsided in the reaction is dried by wind magic. Gently heat the waste oil and add a solution mixed with calcified lime and seaweed ash one by one to explore the reaction. Because the alkali is too strong, the failed items will be packed in barrels for disposal. It is a small amount so it will be diluted even if dumped in the river as it is, but I want to reduce the environmental impact as much as possible.

While recording the fraction, after several repetitions, I was able to confirm the reaction very similar to that when I mixed sodium hydroxide with oil during science experiments. Since the formula of the portions can be generally confirmed, it will also be possible to reproduce them.

Mix in the oil as it is and wait for it to become mayonnaise. Make and transfer tarai. This also matures for about two weeks and cannot be used until it is salted and sodium hydroxide is removed.

There were other ways to make soap, so I'll try some. Hey, it's dangerous not to know without experimenting, so let's keep the warehouse off-limits for the time being. Both the lime and sodium carbonate made shall be sealed in boxes made of earthwork magic. Blindness may also occur if calcified lime enters the eye.

Unfortunately, sodium hydroxide is complete. After that, I guess I'll look at the results of the formulation and salt analysis and judge. There are patch tests, and there seems to be a lot of work to be done. But I want to make hard soaps, and I want to make soaps that smell good.

Calcifying lime could have been used to make sanwa soil, and should we try the area?

When I realized, the sun was also very red. I was too obsessed. Check for powders and leave the warehouse. Let's make a separate piece of experimental clothing. It's too scary to mock the drama with your everyday clothes.

Well, is everyone home?
