5 thoughts on “Can the ancient "alchemy" create gold? What tests did the Western Han king do?”

  1. Ancient alchemy did not create gold. At that time, Emperor Han Xuan made a lot of manpower and material resources and financial resources to make Liu Xiang perform experiments in order to create gold, but in the end, nothing was obtained. Because artificially synthetic gold is very difficult to do even under the level of modern advanced technology, not to mention that the technology was not advanced at the time, but it was still backward. Gold was just the most common metal element on the earth, but because it has a very charming glory and very resistant to corrosion, it has been regarded as a symbol of wealth by the people for thousands of years. According to relevant data, the natural gold storage volume on the earth is billions of tons. Although the number sounds large, it is very regrettable that 99%of gold is in the depths of the earth and cannot be mined by people. This is why the price of gold is very expensive until now. Nowadays, through the continuous development of science and technology, people have the ability to tap 1%of gold ore. As a result, gold has been rare and precious resources since ancient times. The ancient monarch was actually the biggest consumer and user of gold. Because they want to show their identity, they often use a large amount of gold decorative jewelry and temple. Some of the monarchs of gold will choose to be reserved as the national financial resources. At that time, the monarch's demand for gold was very large. Due to the high demand, the monarch wanted to do everything to collect these gold. So in this environment, alchemy was invented. In the period of Qin Shihuang, some people called himself this kind of alchemy. Because this alchemy is very mysterious, those alchemy warlocks have gained the trust of Qin Shihuang. In the Han Dynasty alchemy, it became a must -have skill for these Taoist priests. Emperor Han Xuan conducted an experiment in order to understand the authenticity of the alchemy in the legend. At that time, in order to be able to please the Emperor Han Xuan, Liu Xiang told the monarch that he had mastered this alchemy. Therefore, Emperor Han Xuan put a lot of manpower and material resources into Liu Xiang's project, but the result obviously did not achieve any results. So at that time, Emperor Han Xuan was furious and put Liu Xiang in prison.

  2. "A lot of money, Fang did not verify", the court invested huge people's property, and as a result, a star was not created at all. Because I want to synthesize gold artificially, it is difficult to do it even at the level of modern technology, let alone ancient times.

  3. In ancient times, alchemy is the meaning of alchemy, alchemy is not the ultimate goal, and its purpose is to create long -lived medicines. In addition to strongly supporting alchemy by the Western Han Dynasty, many officials have also sent many officials to look for long -lived medicines.

  4. Most of the ancient alchemy was deceived, and gold could not be made at all, and the king of the Western Han Dynasty also tried such a practice, and eventually ended in failure.
