Wild farming: I was hugged by the cold patriarch

Chapter 84 084. Ye Sang draws design drawings
If you observe at night, you can see the blazing flames at all the flue openings on the top of the kiln, which is really beautiful.

Ye Sang stood on the top of the mountain and saw the beautiful flames. He couldn't help but open the "Summary of Burning Bricks" and read: The pursuit of burning was successful!

The book says that in the mature stage of "lowering the fire", one should generally pay attention to the "three fulls", that is, the entire kiln is full of fire, the "fire court" is full of charcoal fire, and the "grey court" is full of ash leakage.

When the "fire" is completed, all the firework outlets on the top of the kiln are sealed tightly and covered with soil. At the same time, the remaining "fire entrances" and "lookout holes" on the "ash court" and "working surface" at the bottom of the kiln are blocked and poured with yellow mud. Applying the paste tightly is called "closing the kiln".

After "closing the kiln", promptly use yellow mud to seal all the gaps in the kiln roof bricks, then add an appropriate amount of soil to cover the kiln roof, spread it evenly and form a circular pool along the kiln wall, and then pour water and tamp the porcelain tightly. , this process is called "making kiln pool", which is the basic work for the next "kiln making".

"Kiln simmering" is an indispensable and important process. One is to help the kiln fire to quickly extinguish and cool down, and the other is to quench in time to ensure the quality of the bricks.

During the "Yao kiln" period, Ye Sang and other tribesmen carried buckets and poles on their shoulders to carry water from the pool to the top of the kiln for watering.

During the first day or two of "draining the kiln", the amount of water put into the "kiln pool" should not be too large. When watering, observe changes in the water surface and the rate of dripping at any time to see if the water seeps evenly.

If a local leak is found, immediately use a T-shaped "kiln trowel" fixed on a long pole to a rafter or board about two feet long to push and pull back and forth over the leakage area to apply it tightly.

In the first day or two of the "Kiln", the amount of water will be gradually increased as appropriate. Only when it is confirmed that there is no abnormality in the water seepage in the "Kiln Pool" can the "Kiln Pool" be filled quickly to ensure that a large amount of draft water seeps out from the top of the kiln, and it must be covered with thin mud in time. The areas where the explosion occurred on the large and second "kiln doors" were tightly poured with paste.

This lasted for four or five days.

During the process, the changes on the surface of the "big kiln door" are observed at any time, and when a large amount of "splash" or "halo traces" of returning moisture are found from bottom to top reaching the "fire door", it can be concluded that the kiln fire is completely extinguished.

At this point, the water supply can be stopped, and the kiln can be "lit" after the temperature has cooled down for half a day.

"Liang kiln" usually involves first uncovering the surrounding areas of the kiln roof, then going down to the bottom of the kiln to open the "big kiln door", and then removing the soil and uncovering the bricks from the top of the kiln to fully open it, so that the temperature of the entire kiln can be quickly released and cooled down, and it will be ready in two days. Open the "Exit Kiln" from the "Second Kiln Door".

After more than half a month of busy work and bumps, the first kiln bricks were finally fired.

Today is the time to light up the kiln.

Ye Sang stood in front of the "big kiln gate" with emotion. The simple process of firing bricks reflected the wisdom of working people. After experiencing it, she was truly impressed.

In order to welcome this important moment, the tribesmen, including the witches, came to the brick kiln and waited for the kiln to be lit.

Ye Sang stepped forward and opened the "Second Kiln Door", and a flash of red appeared in everyone's eyes.

Gancang asked: "Sang, does this mean it's ready?"

Ye Sang turned around and smiled at everyone: "It was successful, and the fire was very good." She added, "We will move the bricks later, and look at the pottery first."

Arriving at the first kiln, Ye Sang also opened the "second kiln door". The color of the pottery was off-white, shiny and well-fired.

Ye Sang asked Zhu and several other tribesmen to go to the kiln to take out the pottery.

This time the kiln was fired thanks to Zhu and other tribesmen who were responsible for the kiln. Adding charcoal and carrying water was not a problem. They said and did what they said. They took half of the credit for the success of the pottery firing. Therefore, such a historic event must be done. They do.

Zhu and several tribesmen walked briskly into the kiln and took out the pottery one by one.

The first thing to move out was the pottery vat. The pottery vat was brown and had a rough surface. There was nothing we could do about it, but it was already very good after being glazed with mud and fired like this.

After the pottery jars were moved out, they were lined up in front of everyone.

Wu stretched out his hand and knocked, making a series of crisp sounds. Even his wiser mind in the wild world could not figure out why the mud turned like this when it was burned.

But that doesn't matter, as long as the things belong to their tribe.Wu pointed at Rong next to him with his stick: "Rong, you tribesmen are moving the pottery jar back to the tribe, be careful not to break it."

Rong nodded excitedly, then clasped the jar, lifted it onto his shoulder, and returned to the tribe like a strong man.

While they were carrying the pottery jar, Zhu and the others began to take out the bowls.

Ye Sang said: "Give the bowls to everyone, one for each person. If you don't get the bowl, we will cook it again and give it to everyone next time."

Huo and several children stepped forward and each took one.

Jian held the bowl fondly: "In the future, I can use this bowl to hold barbecue, drink water and fruits."

Mao said happily: "Yeah, yeah, I want to drink water from this."

The tribesmen were very happy when they got the bowl. This bowl was only owned by their tribe and it was so precious.

The patriarch's wife, Shui Shui, said with a smile: "Sang's wisdom is far beyond ours. Even if we rack our brains, we still can't come up with such a solution."

Yu nodded in agreement: "Sang is the lucky star of our tribe. Since having Sang, our tribe's life has become much better."

After hearing this, Cao Cao said: "That's right, I haven't been hungry since Sang came to our tribe."

Women from several tribes gathered together to talk and laugh, holding bowls in their hands and turning them over.

After a while, Zhu took out the bowl that Ye Sang was thinking about: "Sang, this is your bowl."

Ye Sang was afraid of breaking it, so she asked the bamboo to be placed on the ground for her. She checked it, no more, no less, just the right set. The color was not as beautiful as modern tableware. They were all earthy and earthy, but they looked very beautiful. Jingmanman: "Zhu, thank you."

Zhu said cheerfully: "Why don't you be polite to me? From now on, you can ask me to do whatever I can do."

Ye Sang smiled: "Okay, okay."

After all the pottery was moved out of the kiln, Ye Sang came to the brick kiln next door. It was really hard for her to bake bricks in the kiln, but she also really admired the wisdom of the people: "Move the bricks out."

A group of tribesmen rushed forward and took out the bricks one by one.

They moved out, and other tribesmen moved to the tribe. In fact, the tribesmen didn't know what the use of bricks was, but Ye Sang told them to burn them, which was always good for them.

Ye Sang's words and deeds over the past few months have made her tribe trust her unconditionally.

After burning the bricks, Ye Sang can build the toilet.

So here's the problem - Ye Sang can't build a house, so he can't use bricks to build a house. The bricks can only be used to build the underground part, and the above-ground part is still made of bamboo and wood.

After thinking for a while, Ye Sang began to draw the design.

Building a toilet is not as easy as building a bathroom. You need to plan first, such as the layout of the pit, the direction of the sewer, etc., otherwise it may not be built.

Of course, Ye Sang had memorized the design in his mind beforehand, but he needed to draw it in front of his clan members.
