Chapter 64: Goose Plucking
Su Meng's face suddenly showed an indescribable expression, feeling like he was lifting a rock and hitting himself in the foot.

Zhang Lin took some things away, Bo Jing took some things away, and Du Jiayue took some things away. The total sum is really a million points!
No, it seems that we should do more than [-] million points just in case.

Seeing that Su Meng didn't answer for a long time, Zhang Lin felt a sense of annoyance in his heart. Why, why didn't he hold back? This is a live broadcast, so Su Meng will probably be scolded again.

Just when he was blaming himself, Su Meng suddenly said: "I have no objection, but you still have to get the consent of Jia Yue, Su Xiang, and Bai Jing."

Zhang Lin raised his head and looked at her in surprise, seeing that she had a frank face, without any hint of shyness on her face, but felt a little bit bitter in her heart.

But he was soon relieved.

Gentlemen love to be gentlemen, not to mention that Su Meng is not only slim, but also so special.

Su Meng didn't know that Zhang Lin thought so much in just that moment. After polishing the small water tank, she made five 19-hole discs, which were used as grates for the earthen kiln.

With so many pottery to be fired, one pit and one earthen kiln are far from enough.

Small objects such as pottery bowls and cups can be fired in pits, but it is safer to fire large objects such as pots and jars in earthen kilns.

Because the temperature of the kiln is higher and more stable than that of the campfire, the quality of the firing will be higher and the breakage rate will be lower.

If the capacity is not enough, then make up the quantity.

As long as she has enough liver, there is no shortage of time.

After Su Meng selected a place suitable for building an earthen kiln, she cleaned up the surrounding stones and weeds, and then took an engineering shovel to start digging.

Just as she landed her first shovel, she suddenly caught a glimpse of Zhang Lin and Bo Jing who were fishing.

then--

"Bo Jing, come and dig the pit with me, Zhang Lin, go and fill in some water, wet the mud we dug out, make it into a paste, and use it to pile up the kiln wall later."

Zhang Lin and Bo Jing froze, regretting why they couldn't think about touching fish, wouldn't it be nice to take a good handicraft class?

The most important thing is that even if you try to fish, you will be caught on the spot by the ruthless capitalists.

In fact, it is more accurate to say that it is digging a hole than digging a ditch.

After all, the depth of this "pit" is less than 20 centimeters, but the width is about 40 centimeters.

After the prototype of the ditch appeared, Su Meng found a relatively flat stone, placed it horizontally on the ditch, and then covered it with a layer of thin mud. It looked like a traditional rural stove.

In the earthen kiln with this structure, the lower hole is used to plug firewood for fire, and the upper hole is used to place pottery.

Then she pasted Zhang Lin's reconciled mud layer by layer according to the method of building mud strips, forming a straight tube about 80 cm high, which is the wall of the earthen kiln.

After completion, the earthen kiln is about 40 cm in diameter, 90 cm in height, and 12 cm thick in the kiln wall. The grate inside is a 19-hole disc made of clay, which looks like a chimney from a distance.

After making five clay kilns in this way, the sun rose to the center of the head.

"Gollum..."

Maybe it was because of too much labor, Su Meng's stomach growled unbearably.

"I went to cook."

Even though there was a long distance, Su Xiang seemed to hear the voice, and immediately got up to wash his hands and prepare to cook.

But Zhang Lin and Bo Jing, who were so tired just now and their bodies had been hollowed out, saw the clay balls and their hands itched again, so they started making their favorite pottery again.

At this time, the clay bowl that was first made has been baked and dried by the fire.

So Su Meng, who had just rested for a while, started his digging business again.

The pit dug this time is very small. It can be said that only three shovels are needed for one pit, but it takes a lot of effort to surround the pit with stones, make a fire pit, and then light a fire in the pit.

After the fire burns out and a pile of charcoal is left, the clay bowl is placed upside down in the charcoal, and firewood is piled on top.

The firewood needs to be piled up in a cone shape, which is not only fuel, but also can block the wind, so as to avoid the sudden change of temperature and cause the pottery to break. When the clay is red hot, the temperature is enough to fire the clay into pottery.

Then she found that if they want to follow this amount of hard liver, they don't have enough firewood.

then--

"Zhang Lin! Bo Jing! Come and collect firewood with me!"

The duo of coolies trembled, stood up tremblingly, carried the machete, carried the backpack, and followed Su Meng into the jungle.

Du Jiayue sighed, she really wanted to go out to collect firewood with Mengmeng, but unfortunately she still had a lot of pottery to finish.

Su Meng took Zhang Lin and Bo Jing to another new direction this time. They had never explored this direction before, so she explored it while collecting firewood. What if she found something good? ?
After walking for about 15 minutes, Su Meng suddenly stopped.

A big pine forest.

Also not sure if it has pine nuts on it.

"Let's just collect firewood here, I'll go and look around." Su Meng was in high spirits, dropped her back sling, and dexterously jumped up the tree.

A squirrel was startled, and hurriedly climbed down from the tree. Halfway through the climb, it stopped and turned back to stare at Su Meng stupidly, as if wondering what kind of creature it was.

Su Meng plucked a pine cone, then slipped down the tree, and made eye-to-eye with the squirrel standing under the tree.

It has to be said that the little guy in front of him is extremely cute, with his two front paws hugging his chest, he tilted his head and looked at Su Meng, his small black pearl-like eyes seemed to be full of doubts.

Su Meng felt an arrow shot in her chest, and she waved her hand helplessly: "Little thing, let's go, for the sake of your lack of flesh, I will let you go today."

After finishing speaking, she ignored the little squirrel and directly opened the pine tree tower.

Then an unconcealable joy welled up in my heart.

There are really pine nuts!
Very good, this pine forest has been contracted by her from now on!
Just when she was immersed in joy and couldn't extricate herself, Zhang Lin's voice suddenly came from not far away: "Su Meng, come and have a look, is this matsutake?"

Su Meng was startled, and ran over quickly, thinking to herself: matsutake?Is it the matsutake she was thinking of?If so, then the abundance of resources on this island is a bit staggering, right?
What Zhang Lin found was indeed a clump of matsutake, and the growth was very gratifying, but there were not many.

But matsutake is a kind of mountain treasure that can be said to be rare, and it is a gift to taste the taste, and she is not a greedy person.

After all, her original purpose of coming here was just to collect firewood.

Now not only pine nuts, pine cones, pine needles and resin are harvested, but also matsutake.

This has far exceeded her expectations.

Pine nuts are used as snacks, pine cones and pine resin are excellent fuels, pine needles can be used to make tea, and have certain medicinal value, not to mention matsutake.

Su Meng used his strength to prove what it means to pluck a wild goose.
