Chapter 717
Sigh, in the modern times, Lin Lan could hardly stand the feeling of being dirty. With laundry detergent and a washing machine, clothes were washed every other day and sheets were washed once every week or two. With that level of cleanliness, there truly wasn’t a speck of dust lingering on the fabrics.
Therefore, she was able to finish using 3 bars of soap in one month without feeling a thing.
“Sanwang, don’t harm the soap,” Erwang saw Sanwang, who was holding the only remaining piece of soap in his hand and squeezing it after becoming anxious from getting called out.
Sanwang quickly returned it to him, “Second Brother, what is this soap made of? It’s slippery.”
Lin Lan’s heart suddenly skipped a beat. Yes, couldn’t she find a way to make soap?
Soap was not something difficult to make. In her previous life, her best friend made and sold handicrafts while taking care of her children at home. In addition to baking, she also made soaps and lipsticks.
She patted her forehead. It didn’t seem to be that complicated a process, but it wasn’t feasible at this time.
Because in addition to requiring strong alkali, she also needed some form of grease. Animal fat or other grease scraps were fine. However, in this era, lard and butter were extremely precious and were reserved for cooking. How could she just use them to make soap?
Even she couldn’t bear to use that just to make soap.
So… let’s go back and think of other options. Sigh, without laundry detergent, things were seriously a pain.
Lin Lan was reluctant to beat the clothes with a mallet and the sodium hydroxide would probably burn her hands, so she gritted her teeth and decided to buy more soap. At worst, she would just be a bit more frugal in other areas.
