The veteran took a look at the temperature and knew that this situation could not last long, otherwise he would have to continue to turn the damper.
No one paid attention to the old man. Everyone stared carefully at the metal particles in the stove.
"Melt, melt!"
"Look, this melted and came out again."
"Hahaha, we are done, successful..."
Suddenly, Zang Wei pointed at the handful of metal particles in front of him, which gradually dissolved, revealing the unique, needle-sized silver-white particles inside, with an extremely excited expression.
Yang Xiaotao quickly covered his nose and stepped forward to look, staring at the reaction that was still going on inside. He could vaguely see a little silvery white particles, and he was also curious in his heart.
On the side, Zhang Laodao narrowed his eyes and looked at Yang Xiaotao seriously.
"As soon as this guy came here, he succeeded."
"Could it be that there really is some will from God?"
Thinking of the existence of Xuan Zhi Youxuan, the old Taoist quickly straightened his beard and bowed his head respectfully to the east, "Infinite Heavenly Lord."
As the experiment progressed, everyone around was extremely happy.
After working hard for more than half a month, it cost countless materials. If the machinery manufacturer hadn't been a big business, how could they have had such abundant materials to experiment with what they had in mind?
At this moment, they proved with success that it was worth the money.
At this moment, they looked at Yang Xiaotao and no longer flinched.
At this moment, Zang Wei almost wanted to reach out and fish out the 'silver pill' from the furnace, and then loudly tell everyone that they succeeded.
"I did it too, and I reacted to it."
The old Taoist came back to his senses, his energy was shaken, and he quickly stepped forward to check.
"Record it quickly."
Xu Ning shouted loudly, and Yang Xiaotao glanced at the thermometer, "Eighty-two point five degrees."
Everyone quickly took notes, and Xu Ning even led someone to record the amount of reagent added this time to facilitate the next experiment.
The veteran also quickly came down and controlled the temperature up and down, and then more and more silver-white particles appeared in the furnace.
Then Yang Xiaotao stepped aside and watched these half-baked 'chemists' start tinkering.
Fortunately, several people had come into contact with it at school. After more than half an hour, a layer of silver-white tungsten particles was cleaned out of the furnace.
"This is tungsten metal?"
"Mr. Yang, this is the tungsten metal we separated."
Xu Ning said seriously, looking excited.
The same goes for other people, they are all young guys. Faced with the success they have achieved, they naturally have joy on their faces.
Yang Xiaotao stared at it with wide eyes. Unexpectedly, this was the first time he came to see it, and he succeeded?
However, he also knew that this was only a success in the laboratory and would require mass production in the future. This alone would not have much effect.
“We must summarize practical methods and then apply them into practice.”
"Also, after you find experience, you can try to expand the scale. In terms of supplies, I will ask the steel factory to cooperate with you."
Yang Xiaotao thought for a moment. He didn't know how other factories extracted tungsten metal, but since this method was feasible, he would give it a try.
"Old Taoist, if you need anything, please report it and I'll have someone make arrangements for it!"
The old Taoist nodded, feeling very satisfied with Yang Xiaotao's decision.
This is Yang Xiaotao. Once there is an opportunity, he will definitely seize it.
He is not like some people who are timid in doing things and reluctant to invest.
If something goes wrong at the slightest moment, I want to give up.
In this regard, Yang Xiaotao is better than anyone in the machinery factory.
After hearing Yang Xiaotao's decision, Xu Ning Zangwei and others were heartened.
It is already rare for them to leave their ivory tower and have a place like a machinery factory to show off their talents. What is even more rare is that they have a good leader and a good big brother who support them. What else can they be dissatisfied with?
However, everyone also knows that their main task is still the research and development of tungsten alloy.
The tungsten extraction work is nothing worth publicizing, and it is only a small achievement.
Because this is not the main task of alloy research and development.
All I can say is that it is an unexpected joy in studying alloys.
Even so, Yang Xiaotao feels that it is impossible to research a tungsten alloy that can process raw materials. Relying on this technology alone to turn tungsten concentrate into tungsten powder is enough for a machinery factory to recover its costs.
Of course, this is something.
If alloys can be developed, who will sell the raw materials?
In the future, technology will be used to make money.
If you export raw materials and then process the finished products and buy them back at a high price, you will suffer a lot in future generations.
Just because the technology is not good, I have to pay tuition.
But from now on, if you study step by step, you may not be unable to get closer.
And facts have once again proven that the more investment in technological research and development, the greater the possibility of obtaining returns.
Just like now, if this layer of tungsten metal is given to a light bulb factory, it is estimated that it can make a lot of money.
Xu Ning, who was listening to the side, explained that the tungsten filament used in domestic light bulb processing is not of high purity and is doped with other elements, which greatly reduces the service life of the lamp.
And because of the purity, the brightness of the bulbs is not as good as those imported from abroad.
All in all, the tungsten metal they purified this time was of high purity after preliminary identification.
At least the purity is much higher than that of domestic light bulb factories.
As for whether other factories have this technology, they don't know.
But it doesn't matter. If we can extract tungsten metal, then the next research direction will be determined.
Tungsten alloy.
Utilize tungsten powder and other materials according to a certain formula to obtain higher strength alloys.
Only then will the world be shocked.
"Xiao'e, go say hello to the chef. If you want a table of good food this lunch, it's mine."
Yang Xiaotao ordered Lou Xiao'e, and Lou Xiao'e responded.
Yang Xiaotao looked helpless.
I thought I came here to take care of these people, save some money, and leave some money for the R&D Department.
Now it's better. Not only did I not persuade, but I listened to Yang Xiaotao and increased my investment.
I really don’t know why Yang Xiaotao is so nice to these people.
Isn't it just for studying metals? So much steel is not enough?
But what Yang Xiaotao said must be done well.
This is the experience she gained from working with Yang Xiaotao.
Whether you like it or not, you have to do it.
Lou Xiao'e ran away quickly and headed to the kitchen.
Several people around him were delighted when they heard this. This kind of care from the leader can make people more motivated.
The veteran also smiled, thinking to himself that he finally lived up to his superior's expectations.
At noon, Yang Xiaotao had dinner with a few people in the reception room to celebrate.
Everyone was a little cautious at first, but gradually got into the mood.
The young man was angry and scolded Fang Qiu.
This victory gave several people great motivation.
He gradually let go in front of Yang Xiaotao.
Everyone talked about their ideals and ambitions, why they devoted themselves to revolutionary construction, why they chose to study steel, and their beautiful visions for the future...
Yang Xiaotao was listening on the sidelines, talking about his plans and what the future would be like.
In the ears of everyone, these things that exist in the future have become Yang Xiaotao's goals.
At this time, they discovered that Yang Xiaotao was not much older than them.
Even the youngest Liu Buhui is only three years younger than Yang Xiaotao.
They are considered a generation.
After eating, Lao Dao led the people to continue research and summary, while planning follow-up experiments.
Of course, according to Lao Dao's prediction, if the steel plant wants to build a factory to produce tungsten metal, construction will have to start in the spring at the latest.
For now, all they can do is slowly process it in the furnace and try to study the alloy formula.
Speaking of this formula, there is a blank in China. The ones currently used are those given by the alliance, but there is no achievement in key areas.
This thing cannot be analyzed by just getting the physical product.
Even if a hard lump melts, you don’t know what’s inside!
In this regard, Lao Dao hopes that Yang Xiaotao will contact his superiors to see if there is any research from other manufacturers, so that they can learn from it first.
Yang Xiaotao responded.
Back in the office, Yang Xiaotao told Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin about the situation.
As expected, the two people didn't react much to this.
Yang Youning has recently been busy building a factory in Yanzhou, and Liu Huaimin also went to the First Machinery Department for meetings all day long.
The two of them were so busy with this matter that Chen Gong and Wang Guodong were responsible for the daily affairs of the machinery factory.
As for Yang Xiaotao, it would be great if he could help.
Regarding Yang Xiaotao's subsequent investment, both of them looked embarrassed.
Yang Xiaotao also understood that after spending so much, the gain was not much.
However, Yang Xiaotao chose to support it, and this research group was established with their consent, so there was no reason to refuse.
Just let Yang Xiaotao supervise it and don't waste it.
As for the tungsten alloy behind, there is still a long way to go, they just need to know.
Of course, when it came to the alloy formula, before Yang Youning said anything, Liu Huaimin had already shaken his head, "Don't think about it. There are not many people in the country who are researching alloys, let alone successful ones."
"If there is no success, there will always be failures."
"Providing a little experience of failure is better than nothing."
Yang Xiaotao tried to hear the news, but Liu Huaimin still shook his head.
"Sometimes, they don't know how they failed. There are too many factors involved, such as fire, time, temperature, materials..."
“Any idea why research is getting harder?”
Yang Xiaotao shook his head.
"Because these factors are beyond our control."
"To give a simple example, temperature."
"How to control the temperature, how to measure the temperature? Do you have instruments? What should I do if the temperature is high? What should I do if it is low?"
"If these cannot be solved, it will be difficult to refine the alloy, let alone the formula."
Yang Xiaotao didn't say anything after hearing this. He just felt that the path of researching alloys was difficult.
"No wonder they just threw it down and ignored it."
"It's obviously a trap."
As Yang Xiaotao said, Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning looked at each other helplessly.
In the afternoon, Yang Xiaotao finished his work, packed up his things and went home to make dumplings.
As soon as the car stopped, he saw Xu Damao walking outside the alley with a bruised nose and a swollen face.
He didn't catch the car either, and grinned as he walked.
Judging from my walking pace, it seems that the middle leg is injured.
Xu Damao walked in front, followed by Silly Zhu triumphantly.
Yang Xiaotao saw the posture of the two and knew that these two bitter enemies were definitely at war again.
I'm not surprised, I'm too lazy to look at it.
Yang Xiaotao picked up the car and carried a foot-long carp to the front yard, preparing to go home to celebrate the New Year.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw a lot of people sitting in the house.
In front of me, the old man was holding the Dragon Boat Festival and was staring at the TV. There were so many people inside, and he couldn't see clearly what was being played.
Everyone behind saw Yang Xiaotao coming back and greeted him one after another.
Yang Xiaotao saw from the crowd that Ran Qiuye was kneading dough in the kitchen.
Looking around, he saw that the dishes were all complete and there was a lot of pork, so he rolled up his sleeves and started packing the carp.
At dinner time, the people in the courtyard returned home and began to celebrate the New Year.
On the dinner table, there are four dishes.
Yang Xiaotao, Mr. Yang and Lao Tao were sitting at the table, while Ran Qiuye was looking after the children and sitting beside them.
"Come and taste my special wine."
The old Taoist opened the small wine jar he brought and filled it for the three of them.
Yang Xiaotao glanced at the wine jar with a strange expression on his face. He knew the wine was special from the smell.
Can…
Looking at the old man and his wife, Yang Xiaotao's eyes were filled with amusement.
The old man saw Yang Xiaotao's intention and ignored him. He raised his glass to the master and said, "Brother, let's drink this wine. It will nourish the liver and kidneys, strengthen the stomach and remove dampness, relax the muscles and activate blood circulation. It's good."
Mr. Yang also picked up the cup and said, "Okay! Let's drink ours and treat it as our own home."
The two clinked glasses and drank, and Yang Xiaotao also picked up the glass and took a sip.
It's similar to the ones in the northwest, but it seems to be more pure cotton.
After looking at the old man, this guy must have added some ingredients, but I don't know what he used and what the effect is.
