Magi Craft Meister

70-17 Old Toys

After dinner, Jens was discussing the findings of the 'submarine'.

Because in the evening Marcia and Rodrigo came back.

"A submarine is a ship."

What is Marcia's saying.

"… so one of these was for surveillance of the crust, one was for storage of materials, and the other was an unmanned submarine."

"Yeah... but that propulsion device sounds interesting. Can't you apply it to a regular ship?

"Ha, sounds like Marcia.... Wait?... right!

Jen apparently came up with something, headed to the workshop and came right back. Ballpaper, scissors and candles on your hands.

For the record, a ball of ballpaper is called a 'board' in English. In other words, it means' sheet paper '.

"Board," but in the old days they also read this as "Bold," and they say the Bold paper has become a ball paper.

The original raw material is straw pulp, and this is the yellow ballpaper.

White ballpaper is made from wood pulp.

Jen had such ballpaper in his hand.

By the way, it's really normal ballpaper. It is not prepared in Penglai.

"So what do you do?

When Marcia questioned him, Jen laughed and answered.

"Enjoy After You Can"

Jen then cut the ball paper with scissors and built a small ship about 10 mm wide and 20 mm long.

Jen painting a lol there.

Marcia, I've got an idea that the faces that were in the dining room are probably lol painted to keep the water from staining the paper, but I don't know until the end purpose.

"That's it."

And Jen asked the five-color golem maid Perido 1 to bring me a camphor (Shino) for the tans.

The camphor is a lowly crystal that can be removed from the kusnoki and has a unique odor.

It has long been used to repel insects, but has now been replaced by synthetic insect repellents such as naphthaline and paradichlorbenzene.

Here in Penglai, natural kusnokis are harvested, camphor ingredients are removed in Extraction, and purified and used in Purification.

Kusnoki was used as wood after taking the camphor.

Jen put a carving in the stern of the ship and pinched a camphor there.

"That's it.... Guys, come here for a second"

Jen spoke to everyone who was on the spot and headed to the bathroom.

and water on a large tarai for laundry,

"Look, look closely."

So he softly floated the ship with the camphor in the water.

Then.

"Whoa!"

"Ah."

A ship floated in Tarai.

"Magic... isn't it"

"Mmm, I don't feel magic"

"Then why is it working?...... Ah, could it be surface tension!?

"Hannah's right."

This is a toy known in modern Japan under the name 'Camphor Boat'.

Until about the late Showa period, it was occasionally seen in marginal nightclubs, etc., but when the synthetic insect repellent became full, the camphor (Gino) also drastically decreased in circulation, and is now barely seen.

"When the camphor dissolves in water, the surface tension drops."

"Oh, I knew it. So the boat moves when the surface tension of the water on the side without the camphor is pulled."

To Jen's explanation, Hannah, who understands the science most, guessed the principle and nodded again and again.

"That sort of thing, any substance that has surfactant properties should be fine"

"So, even soap?

"I can. And if you point the alcohol behind the boat, it'll work."

An experiment in science called the Alcohol Boat, where the boat jumps momentum when alcohol is draped a little more behind the boat using something like soy sauce.

"Oh, that was funny"

"Mmm, that was interesting"

"Kufu, is that a surfactant? It's not deep enough to look into physical properties."

The reactions of members of the "Jen Family" were also generally favourable, such as

"I've been around a long time."

"In the end, Jin remembered that toy and wanted to make it," he said.

Reinhardt said Zubari what Jen wanted to say.

"Hit it."

"Ha, sounds like gin"

"But it was funny."

"Mm-hmm. These toys are funny"

It was Penglai Island night when the pleasant voice of "Jen Family" sounded.

"... so should I say 'vault'... 'vault'?... have you found anything?

When the matter of the "Camphor Boat" took a breather and everyone started drinking tea, Jen asked Elsa.

"Mmm, that's..."

"What's up?

"The information stored in that 'vault' was quite skewed,"

"Really... how?

"In a nutshell, for beginners"

"Uh..."

According to Elsa's explanation, although there was medical material, it was all I already knew.

So I had a lot of time to look at the other materials, but they were all already in use or some of them were obsolete and no longer in use.

"Was it..."

When Jen says unfortunately,

"But I haven't looked into it all yet,"

And Elsa said to comfort her.

"Well, tomorrow, let's find out who you are."

"Yeah, like"

"I hope you find something useful, even one or two."

That's what I'm talking about.

That's why the next day, all the "Jen Families" in Penglai were to examine the "Vault" material from one end.
