My Island Survival in the Wild

Chapter 333 The Scattering Principle of Changing Brightness

Xiong Batian, they are huge in size, and their actions are not as cautious as humans. If you use candles, they are easy to be knocked down by them.

Lin Xiu didn't want to make fun of the shelter he worked so hard to build, so making oil lamps was imperative.

Besides, the brightness of the oil lamps he made could only be compared with candles.

The oil lamps he is going to make are not just ordinary oil lamps.

"Old men, I think everyone's impression of oil lamps is still old-fashioned, and they think oil lamps are very dark. Why don't we make a bet on whether the brightness of my oil lamp can be close to that of electric lamps!"

Lin Xiu soon had other ideas in his mind, and he could take the opportunity to gain some benefits from the water friends.

It just so happens that everyone now has a fixed idea of ​​the brightness of the oil lamp, so he can bet on it.

"Although I know that the anchor is sure to win every bet, but oil lamps, no matter how bright they can be, are even more impossible to get close to electric lights, so I bet!"

"Speak directly, the anchor, how do you want to bet, we agree!"

"If the anchor says you can surpass candles, I'll still believe it, but it's impossible to get close to electric lights!"

"Even if it was an electric lamp more than ten years ago, it is definitely not comparable to the brightness of an oil lamp!"

Regarding Lin Xiu's request for a bet, the water friends accepted it confidently.

Because they are very sure that the brightness of oil lamps cannot catch up with electric lamps.

Seeing these bullet screens, Lin Xiu curled up a smile.

"If I lose today, I will send red envelopes in the live broadcast room until the live broadcast ends."

"And if I win, the veterans with the top [-] active players must post this video on various platforms to help me gain popularity. I won't force other participating veterans!"

Lin Xiu told the betting rules.

The reason why he made a bet with the water friends to post the video is mainly because Lin Xiu wants to see if enough water friends can promote it, can it trigger a trend of imitation like last time, and then trigger the reward mechanism of the system.

Now there are at least tens of millions of people watching his live broadcast. Although Lin Xiu only mentioned the top [-] active people, as long as he wins, there will definitely be more people willing to fulfill the bet.

If there are too many people promoting it, it will definitely attract imitation.

Even if the system's reward mechanism cannot be triggered, Lin Xiu can still gain a large number of fans.

This is completely empty-handed white wolf.

So no matter how you look at it, he will not suffer.

"Anchor, you just wait to lose your money this time. Even if it takes you three hours to make an oil lamp, you still have two hours until you finish the live broadcast. If you send out red envelopes for two hours in a row, you may cry out loud. !"

"Wait for the anchor's red envelope!"

"It means that the reward money is not much, and I can't squeeze into the top 500 activity, but as long as the anchor really makes a super bright oil lamp, I will definitely send you a video, and I will even mobilize people around me to post it together! "

At this time, the water friends were sure that Lin Xiu could not win, so their tone became extremely relaxed.

"How can it take three hours to make an oil lamp, just give me one hour!"

Lin Xiu smiled slightly.

He didn't waste time, and immediately started making oil lamps.

First, Lin Xiu put two iron sheets into the glass oil lamp container, wound them in a circle, and dropped them to the bottom of the cup.

Then he went to the kitchen and dug up a piece of tiger shark fat that had been refined before. After melting it, he added palm oil to it.

"Large sharks like tiger sharks usually prefer fatty creatures, such as seals and salmon!"

"So their fat is also very thick, and the fat quality is also very high, which is very powerful when used for burning!"

"The reason why palm oil is added is because palm oil is not only an easy-to-burn fat, but also not solid itself, so adding palm oil to the fat can prevent the fat from freezing!"

Lin Xiu explained the principle to the water friends while doing it.

Seeing this scene, many water friends quickly wrote down these knowledge points in their notebooks.

Since watching Lin Xiu's live broadcast, many people have developed the habit of taking notes.

Even if they don't go to the wilderness to survive in the future, collecting these cold knowledge can make their bragging more reasonable.

After the mixed oil was prepared, Lin Xiu chopped up the salt wax obtained from the previous salt mining and put it in.

This time, his pot of lamp oil is considered complete.

Although it is said that it has not solidified, the lamp oil has now become very viscous.

"Actually, kerosene is the best lamp oil fuel, because it is relatively cheap to make and has high brightness. For someone like me, based on China's prices, this pot of oil is worth hundreds of dollars!"

"Hundreds of dollars?! Farewell, farewell!"

"I've confirmed the answer, I can't afford it, so let's go!"

When Lin Xiu said that the cost of this pot of lamp oil was only a few hundred yuan, the water friends were shocked and confused.

Lin Xiu seemed indifferent.

What he said was to use China's prices, but it didn't mean that it must be so expensive.

Shark oil varies from country to country, and prices vary.

For example, in Yingdao, because of its vast sea area and the habit of completely ignoring ecological protection, they hunt and kill more than 20 sharks every year.

Even for whales, which are under special protection by international environmental protection organizations, more than [-] whales are hunted and killed by Japanese people every year.

In such a country, shark fat would be very cheap.

In Huaxia, shark oil is often not available even if you have money.

Lin Xiu put the finished lamp oil away, and then took out the hemp thread weaved before, twisted it into a whole length, soaked it in lamp oil, and sprinkled a little salt and wax powder inside.

"Salt wax powder is used to fix the wick so that the wick will not hang down into the lamp oil!"

Lin Xiu explained the function.

"Anchor, although the material you used is very special, but if this is the case, you are doomed!"

"I learned a lot of cold knowledge, but I feel that the way the anchor does it is not much different from what other people do!"

Seeing that Lin Xiu had finished the lamp oil and wick, the water friends felt that he was hopeless.

In this way, they don't feel how bright it can be.

"It's not over yet!"

Lin Xiu smiled, and then he picked up the glass lamp that he had made earlier.

"I believe everyone must have learned the principle of astigmatism in physics, and the method I will use today is very simple, that is to use the principle of astigmatism to diffuse the light source!"

As Lin Xiu spoke, he took a polygonal diamond-shaped oval bead that he had made earlier.

This bead was specially made by him before, and the polygonal rhombus on it can provide a heavier mirror refraction effect.

With this, the light of the oil lamp is multiplied.
