At noon, Su Bai silently perford his Daily Check In and opened his Assistance Package, receiving a 55 degrees thermal flask.
When he woke up in the morning, because the fox eared girl was always around, he had forgotten to check in.
He stared at the black cup in his hand, surprised that such a cup existed.
“Well, it’s actually quite useful in the hot sumr…” Su Bai opened the cup and poured so hot water in.
After screwing on the lid, he started shaking it. After a few minutes, he stopped.
Su Bai opened the lid and took a gentle sip, raising his eyebrows. “Not bad, it really turned into lukewarm water.”
The 55 degrees thermal flask was a new product from Earth, where one could pour in boiling water and shake it to get water at 55 degrees. It was quite novel. The main working principle behind it was the micron-level material for heat transfer stored in the food-grade stainless steel interlayer.
These materials would undergo a reversible solid-liquid transformation at the micron level as the temperature changed.
When the water temperature was above 55°C, it could quickly absorb and store the heat. Thus, bringing the water temperature down to around 55°C. When the water temperature fell below 55°C, the material would slowly release heat instead.
Since the material for the heat transfer was a pure physical phase-changing eco-friendly material, it had fast heat conduction and high heat storage efficiency.
“I never thought the System would produce sothing like this. First ti seeing it in person.” Su Bai muttered.
However, this was not a high-tech product, and its production cost was not high at all.
Under the outer packaging, the cup’s inner layer was made of sodium acetate trihydrate, with 12% of this substance serving as heat storage. There was also 5% disodium phosphate dodecahydrate as a nucleating agent, 3% gelatin as a thickening agent, with the phase being changed at exactly 55 degrees.
This so-called high-tech product actually used a type of fused salt, whose phase change temperature was between fifty and sixty degrees. Depending on the mixture, it could achieve the 55 degree ratio, which was the cheapest.
Naturally, this material was not applied only to flasks and cups.
For example, the main principle of the hand warrs used on Earth was based on the crystallisation and heat release of sodium acetate trihydrate. Furthermore, these hand warrs cost one yuan each in the market. One could easily imagine how all the materials together cost no more than five yuan.
Therefore, the so-called 55 degrees thermal flask only cost a few yuan more than a regular cup.
“Let’s just treat it as a novelty,” Su Bai smiled, [Having sothing is still better than having nothing.]
Besides, in the hot sumr, when one suddenly wanted water but only had boiling water available, this thing could be useful. Though, he had to admit, such occasions might be rare.
*Yawn…* Su Bai let out a long yawn, muttering, “Need to catch up on sleep this afternoon.”
He had experinted with the Curing Technique again last night until midnight, testing whether he could reattach a rabbit’s chopped off leg.
Initially, Su Bai chopped the rabbit’s leg into tiny pieces, and then used the Curing Technique to restore it.
The second ti, he did not cut it into such small pieces, but the Curing Technique’s restoration effect was not ideal.
He continued with the third ti, fourth ti… after more than ten experints, he finally had a theory.
That was, if one’s arms or legs got broken, and if the broken limb was mangled by a Ferocious Beast, it could not be restored. It could only be restored if the broken limb was broken into pieces about the size of pebbles. Fragnts were far too small be to restored
[Last night’s experints were sowhat useful. Maybe when Curing Technique reaches Level 3, I’ll be able to reattach finely broken legs?] Su Bai thought to himself.
Sha Lan walked into the wooden house and asked, “Shaman, I’ve finished training. Is there anything you need to do?”
“Go recruit another batch of people for . We need to increase our numbers for Linen Weaving, papermaking, and ceramic manufacturing.” Su Bai instructed.
Last night, he had been thinking. They did not have that many people making linen, ceramics, and Wolf Tail Grass Paper.
Since they had moved back to the Tribal Ancestral Land and started building cent houses, it was ti to increase the workforce in these sectors.
“Yes, does the Shaman have any suitable candidates in mind? I can speak to them directly.” Sha Lan asked.
“I’m not familiar with everyone in the Tribe. You know better than who can be trusted and who is suitable for what,” Su Bai said.
Sha Lan brushed her blue hair, her cat ears twitching. The feeling of having the Shaman’s trust was great.
She nodded firmly, responding, “I understand, I will handle these matters well for the Shaman.”
“Let set a few requirents. The people you recruit should still be from our Fla Dragon Tribe. Don’t consider those from the Black Snake Tribe for now.”
After thinking for a mont, Su Bai added, “For Linen Weaving, they should all be female. They are to be smart, discreet, and particularly dextrous.”
“Alright, anything else?” Sha Lan was silently morising everything.
“For ceramic manufacturing, they should be sowhat older, but not too old – around forty is good. Mainly male, just four or five people for now, no need for too many. Look for those with handicraft experience.”
Su Bai turned his black eyes and continued, “For Wolf Tail Grass Paper manufacturing, there aren’t many specific requirents. Both n and won are fine, but the prerequisite is confidentiality. Otherwise, it won’t just end with their expulsion from the Tribe.”
Seeing the Shaman so serious for the first ti, Sha Lan nodded without hesitation, responding, “I’ve rembered everything. I will recruit according to these requirents.”
“Tell them that as long as they work hard and maintain confidentiality well, they’ll get an extra piece of dried at each day, and they’ll receive linen later.” Su Bai added.
“Shaman, they would keep it confidential and work hard even without these incentives, because they are all mbers of the Fla Dragon Tribe.” Sha Lan felt this to be a waste of dried at.
“It’s fine, just do as I say. Don’t worry about not having enough dried at, we’ll definitely save up enough before the rainy season cos.” Su Bai smiled.
He knew what the cat eared girl was worried about. She was worried that the Tribe did not have enough food, and giving extra to these people seed unnecessary.
“I understand.” Sha Lan nodded and left the wooden house.
Yu Ying blinked her pink eyes, puzzled. “Shaman, why give them extra dried at and distribute linen?”
“Only by giving out rewards would their motivation to work greatly increase. Won’t we get more linen, ceramics, and Wolf Tail Grass Paper in the end?” Su Bai asked in return.
“Oh, I see, but they would be willing to work even without these extras.” Yu Ying softly said.
Su Bai gently tapped the fox eared girl’s nose and smiled, asking, “Well, if I told you I’d give you a big piece of at for completing one linen garnt today, would you be willing?”
Yu Ying nodded without hesitation, her round little face looking very cute, “Of course.”
“That’s exactly it. You normally can’t complete one piece in a day, right? That big piece of at serves as motivation.” Su Bai explained.
“I understand.” Yu Ying smiled with narrowed eyes.
