Lord of Industrialization

Florence cried with joy as she returned to her position holding the tray, covering her face with her hands, tears dripping from her fingers.

Next, the Alchemy Prize was awarded, and the winner was Fritz, dean of the Alchemy School of Weisenberg University.

Frederick came to the stage again and began a relatively brief award speech: "I have had a question since I was a child, why does meat cook when heated. I asked all over the castle and no one could answer it. This question still has no answer. Although we don't know Why does meat cook, but that doesn’t stop us from taking advantage of this phenomenon for cooking.”

"I have a superficial study of alchemy. This is an ever-changing science. Various substances will undergo different changes when combined together."

"Atomic theory believes that all matter in the world is composed of atoms, and different atoms are combined into a wide variety of molecules. These molecules can be decomposed or combined, and there are millions of changes."

"While I was doing the experiment, I couldn't help but wonder, what is the underlying principle of these changes?"

"I have a guess. Are there hands on the surface of atoms? The bonding reaction is hand-holding, and the decomposition reaction is hand-loosening. These hands cannot be empty. After they are loosened, they hold each other together according to certain principles. .”

"This year's Golden Durian Alchemy Award will be awarded to Mr. Fritz, the author of "The Catalysis and Passivation Effect of Magical Elements in Alchemy". He studied the role of different magic elements in alchemical reactions and worked hard to change the alchemical conditions. provided theoretical guidance."

"I am certain that after a thousand years, when we have all turned into dust, Lord Fritz's achievements will still appear on students' examination papers."

"Just now, when I walked on stage, an idea suddenly appeared in my mind. According to Mr. Fritz's theory, does the catalyst affect the hand on the atom?"

Fritz came on stage quickly after Frederick finished his speech. He was wearing a laboratory cotton white coat and hat today. He had two pens with black and red ink and a pencil in his breast pocket, as if he was here. Not to receive awards, but to do experiments.

This is also a tradition for Wesson winners. If Florence knew that she was going to receive the award today, she would definitely wear her nurse uniform.

After taking the tray from Frederick's hand, Fritz began his acceptance speech: "The principal just gave me a difficult problem. This bold assumption is logical, but without careful verification, I cannot draw a conclusion whether it is correct. "

"For thousands of years, countless alchemists have been looking for ways to make gold from cheap materials, and have achieved many results, except gold."

"Now times have changed, and I think alchemists should not continue to be obsessed with gold, because there are many things more valuable than gold."

This year, Fritz's achievements are too advanced to be shown. After all, it is a technology that can reduce the reaction pressure of ammonia synthesis to several atmospheric pressures. If Frederick was from home, he would probably be able to award a Nobel Prize, so only a brief summary is made public. .

Fritz was on the stage talking about how alchemists can make money. In the audience, his old friend Monnartz, the new industry minister of Wessen, nervously recited his acceptance speech silently.

All Might teased him from the side: "It's not the first time I've won an award, so don't be so nervous."

Monnartz replied nervously: "This is my first and second time winning the award."

In the past two years, he won the Alchemy Award for his technology in smelting magic metals. At the same time, he was not allowed to display the results because they were too advanced. He originally thought that he could win the Alchemy Award again for the new results he applied for this year. Unexpectedly, the Alchemy Award fell to Fritz at the last moment. On his head, his work won the Magic Award after temporarily excerpting the core part according to Psyche's suggestion.

Monnarz has no objection to this. It is naturally better to win the Golden Durian Award in two fields at the same time.

After Fritz stepped down, Psyche came on stage to serve as the presenter of the Magic Award. She said: "For thousands of years, countless magicians have devoted themselves to the study of the mutual movement between magic elements and matter, and achieved the 'sticky theory' Waiting for a series of results.”

"Monnarz put forward a new theory in "The Relationship between Electricity Magic and Static Electricity" by studying the relationship between the two. The interaction between magic elements and material elements does not rely on invisible paste. As connectors, they can penetrate and influence each other..."

Frederick was a little distracted in the audience, because Monnartz's results were very important, providing a theoretical basis for efficient electrolysis under magic energy, which could greatly reduce energy consumption.

Apart from anything else, electrolytic aluminum can probably be put on the agenda.

Today's aluminum is extremely precious, and its refining relies on magicians to work miracles. First, the red clay containing aluminum hydroxide is purified as much as possible, and then the aluminum hydroxide is decomposed into alumina at a temperature of almost 1000 degrees Celsius, and then mixed with carbon powder When heated together to above 2200°C, alumina and carbon powder generate aluminum element and carbon monoxide.

The primary problem with this method is that it is a bit expensive. There are not many containers these days that can withstand more than 2,000 degrees Celsius. They are all maintained by manpower. Moreover, impurities and other products hinder the reaction, and the aluminum element vaporizes when heated, making it extremely efficient. Low.

At this year's wedding between Prince Rudolf of the Rhine League and Princess Antonia of the Kingdom of Gaul, little Louis presented a pair of aluminum cups to the couple on behalf of his father, which did not need to be inlaid with gems.

Frederick took out his notebook from his pocket and wrote "Electrolytic Aluminum" on a new page. Now no one on the planet except him and Psyche knew what it was.

After Monnarz came down, the oldest Baron Franz among the vassals of the Wesson family came on stage to present the biology award.

The winner is a middle-aged veterinarian named Zaro from the Caledonia region in the north of the Kingdom of England. After winning the award, he said excitedly: "Thank you Duke Wesson for your tolerance, thank you Master Psyche for your guidance, thank you Baron Monofro’s help, and thanks to Sisi’s encouragement and companionship, have given me, an outcast, a place to stay and perfected the technology of artificial insemination.”

"Once again, I would like to thank Duke Wesson for his trust in appointing me as the director of the Animal Breeding and Breeding Division of the Bureau of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine of the Ministry of Agriculture."

Zaro thanked everyone on stage, even Monoflo's fat lynx, which has now become the school pet of Weissenburg University.

Frederick smiled and nodded to him. He only knew who he was and what he was doing when he signed and approved the list of winners. In the past few years, his experiments have been promoted by Psyche.

Artificial insemination of livestock has many benefits. It has the advantages of greatly improving the breeding efficiency of excellent breeding animals, accelerating breed improvement, reducing feeding and management costs, and preventing the spread of diseases.

The difficulty of artificial insemination in Zaro's research is the dilution and storage conditions. Currently, 5% sugar water is used to dilute it about 20 times. The priests of the Church of Light perform the treatment every eight hours, and it can be stored at a lower temperature for more than five days. , the pregnancy rate reaches 80%.

Nowadays, the living conditions in Wesson are moving forward steadily, the demand for meat is growing rapidly, and the army also has a great demand for draft horses. Breeding excellent breeds of livestock has always been the focus of agricultural work.

Frederick was thinking that it was time to tighten his belt and acquire better breeds of livestock to establish a specialized breeding farm.

The next medical award was awarded to a doctor from the dark land of the north. He extracted the active ingredients from the "Eat Sleep Mushroom" to prepare a general anesthesia anesthetic, and calculated the dosage, duration of effect, and user's weight. etc. relationship.

The physics prize was won by a scholar from Mingxing City in the Principality of Bain, who had made achievements in optics.
