Galactic Garbage Station Chapter 216 Spider Web Use

After driving back home from the city, Su Jing called to order the best fitness equipment.
When he saw the fitness equipment of the Dojo, Su Jing suddenly got excited. Running, sit-ups, push-ups, and other exercises can also exercise the body, but if there is the cooperation of fitness equipment, the effect will be better. In particular, you can use sandbags to practice leg techniques.

Of course, for the time being, he just ordered them. They won't be delivered so quickly. After all, the building hasn't been decorated yet, and there's no place for them to be delivered. When it's finished, it'll be put on the second floor. Anyway, the collection can't occupy the whole first floor, and there's more than enough room for him to install a small gym.

Early in the morning, Su Jing washes, plays, runs, eats breakfast, and enters the Garbage Station. First, he looked at the cultivated seeds. The tomatoes, strawberry and ginseng seeds planted in the Spirit Stones Soil have all sprouted and grown into seedlings. The tomato and strawberry seeds planted in the common soil have rotted. As Su Jing expected these tomato and strawberry seeds from A record of a mortal's journey to immortality can only be planted in spirit stones soil. Only when they are cultivated in the Spirit Stones Soil can they survive. The ginseng planted in the common soil does not rot, but it does not germinate.

In addition, Spirit Gra.s.s, willow, bamboo, camellia euphlebia, seven leaves ginseng (in order to distinguish it from ordinary ginseng, Su Jing had the seven leaves of compound ginseng from Perfect World and named it seven leaves ginseng) and other plants have grown fast and beautifully under the nourishment of Spirit Stones Soil. The Man-eating vine is sprouting more flowers every day so that Su Jing can now use them more than a few times a day.

“This Spirit Stones Soil is really good for planting.”

Su Jing planted several precious plant seeds that he had prepared in the morning in a basin of spirit stones soil, ready to be transplanted after their germination. The plan to make money by cultivating precious plants with spirit stones soil is officially started.

The silkworms in the box are similar to ordinary silkworms, and they only eat and sleep. They are getting bigger every day, but they are not spitting silk yet. It's going to take some time.

“Well, what about spiders?”

Su Jing looks into the other box, only to see that it is full of spider webs. He could only see the dead half side of the giant spider, but at first sight, he couldn't see eleven little spiders. But after releasing his spiritual force, he found eleven of them hiding inside, each as big as a fist. Spiders have a cannibalistic nature, but they only ate the giant spider and didn't eat each other as there is already more than enough food for them; Second, after Su Jing tamed them with spiritual taming. The spiders got along pretty well, So there was no cannibalism.

Su Jing looked at it carefully. The spider webs that were added later in the box were obviously much thinner. They should have been vomited by little spiders. The web from which the giant spider began to spit was invisible and may have been eaten by the little spider.

“I forgot to study the spider's web. It's so strong, I wonder if it will do any good?”

Su Jing is used to picking up garbage, so he knows the truth of turning waste into treasure. What's more, the spider web doesn't look like a waste at first sight. The first thing he thought about was to let the eleven spiders spin the spider net around the interior of the super s.p.a.ce-time garbage station when they grow up and seal it as to not let any small animal escape from here.

“Let's check online and see what the spider web can do.”

Su Jing took out his mobile phone and searched online. If he didn't check it, he wouldn't know it. But when he checked it, he was surprised to find that spider was all treasure. A Spider's venom and its silk can be used as a medicine to detoxify and reduce swelling. It is mainly used to treat the sore area, poisonous snake bites, strokes, convulsions, impotence, premature e.j.a.c.u.l.a.t.i.o.n and other diseases. Spider venom has a unique role in the treatment of cerebral hemorrhage and epilepsy. It can block the pota.s.sium and calcium channels of nerve cells and has neuroprotective effects on stroke patients. Spider silk can be used to produce a spiderweb oral liquid that has a remarkable effect on neurological diseases.

Of course, none of these functions are direct. They have to be processed by layers of Medical Pharmacy, so they are not very useful for Su Jing. However, spider silk also has some functions, which makes him extremely interested.

According to the research, the physical and chemical properties of spider silk have a distinct advantage compared with silk. In terms of mechanical strength, spider silk fiber is similar to the strength of the highest strength carbon fiber and high-strength synthetic fiber, but its toughness is obviously better than the above-mentioned fiber. Therefore, spider silk fiber has broad application prospects in the fields of national defense, military (bulletproof vest) and construction.

According to scientists' experiments, a rope made by spider silk is stronger and st.u.r.dier than stainless steel bars of the same thickness. It can bear five times more weight than steel without breaking. Although spider silk is as thin as a hair, you can't underestimate its ability and function. In addition, spider silk is very elastic, spider silk with a diameter of only one millimeter can stretch more than twice before it breaks.

However, the production of natural spider silk is very low because it mainly comes from the production of net webs and the yield is too low. Moreover, spiders have the personality of cannibalism and cannot be bred as intensively as silkworms. The production of natural spider silk is very limited. To get a pound of spider silk, you need to catch more than 600,000 spiders., it is too expensive and not feasible to collect the spider and cut open the spider's belly to take out the liquid Silk and then spin it manually.

In order to solve this problem, the National Army Biochemistry Command Center in Ma.s.sachusetts and Quebec Nexia Biotechnologies Inc. in Canada, extracted spider genes from spiders and implanted them into goats to make their milk have spider Silk protein, and then they used a special spinning process to spin the spider silk protein in the milk into artificial spider silk, also known as biological steel. The synthetic spider silk made this way is four to five times stronger than steel and has silk-like softness and l.u.s.ter. It can be used to make the high-grade bulletproof vest. Biological steel has a wide range of applications, including making protective covers for combat aircraft, tanks, radars, satellites, and other equipment.

“The little spider silk is so amazing and they are still ordinary spider silk. If these spider silks from A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality are processed, what will happen?”

Su Jing was a little excited. At first, the silk that the giant spider spits out is thicker than the common spider silk, but it's only about a millimeter in diameter. But Su Jing has used more than 200 Jin of strength to pull it out and it didn't break at all, it's just caused the whole web to fall off.

Su Jing got a small spider web. These spider webs are only a few millimeters thick. The spider webs are divided into horizontal silk and vertical silk. The horizontal silk is spiral silk. It is sticky and is responsible for binding prey. The vertical silk crosses the spiral silk. It is not sticky, but it has high strength. It serves as a support for spider webs.

Su Jing took horizontal silk, which felt sticky. He began to stretch it with both hands. The spider silk is continuously stretched and thinned, that is, it doesn't break until it's too thin to see. He took another piece of longitude silk. He felt a little slippery, but when he stretched it, he obviously felt a little resistance. He put on gloves and tried his best. With more than 100 Jin of force, his hands were a little red and he finally pulled it off. (to be continued)
