Chapter 34 Entering the Pottery Age
(The update was not good some time ago, so I was embarrassed to shout slogans. Now that I have returned home and the update is stable, I can finally shout happily again, asking for recommendations, asking for favorites, and asking for clicks. In short, I ask for everything, because every data , are very important for a new book.)
"Qiao Ma, come and try."

"me?"

Qiaoma looked at Li Qi excitedly, as if she couldn't believe it.

Li Qi nodded and said, "That's right!" As he spoke, he gave up the rock under his buttocks.

Qiaoma sat on it with lightning speed, as if afraid of being robbed, she said to Rong, "Rong, I will turn around by myself, I don't need your help."

"Oh."

Rong shrank back, and looked at Li Qi wronged again, as if asking, why not me first.

Look what I'm doing, you're so awesome, it's a waste of your talent to ask you to do this stuff.Li Qi turned a blind eye and began to teach Qiao Ma how to pull the embryo.

Qiaoma really doesn't need Rong's help, because she still has a little bit of strength. Let Rong do this kind of thing, it's like killing chickens with a sledgehammer, and her big toe is much more flexible than Rong, and she can slow down at any time. can be fast.

Li Qi was guiding carefully at the side. Looking at the rotating pottery wheel, some memories of embryonic drawing flashed in his mind, which was full of sweetness and romance. Looking at the reality again, he sighed bitterly in his heart, why is the person sitting here not What about a beautiful woman?How much fun that would be!No, Li Qi, you can't judge people by their cover, otherwise you won't even be able to make friends here.No, Li Qi, you have to judge people by their appearance. If you lower your standards, then you will surely let your wives down. If you judge people by their appearance, even if you don’t return to Song Dynasty, you are doomed to die alone.

Qiaoma is also worthy of being the most dexterous woman in the Black Stone Valley. Soon, she mastered the trick. Of course, mastering the trick does not mean learning it.

But the people around couldn't take their eyes off it, and felt itchy. In their eyes, this wasn't work at all, it was just playing, so why not play together?
Li Qi didn't favor one person over another, he let his pottery making team take turns to practice.

But they are not pots and bowls, but pottery wheels made of pottery, which is much simpler than pots and bowls, because it is not very easy to use wood as pottery wheels, after all, wood is not so smooth , It will also rot and deform when it encounters water, and the wood is just a turntable underneath.

Of course, this time Li Qi didn't say to put the pottery embryos into the fire to bake immediately. This is no longer an experiment, but let them be placed on the big leaves to dry first.

And that night, no one asked Li Qi to tell a story, and most of them were making runners. After watching them all day, they were already very itchy, so they could only make runners by themselves, including those little farts like them. The boy is also seriously peeling wood.

Although their tools are very backward, this is what they are good at. Since they were young, they have either made stone tools or wooden tools.Moreover, there is a lot of wood here.

Seeing this scene, Li Qi thought that Heishi Valley would usher in the moment when all the people made pottery.

However, the reality told him that he really thought too much.

In the early morning of the next day, I saw Man and the others stepping on a wooden wheel with both feet, pushing back and forth with their feet, pushing the wooden wheel forward, playing in front of the cave.

Of course, only their terrifying balance can walk freely on the bumpy ground on such crude wheels.

"Man, you walk really slowly."

"Believe it or not, I will go to Li Qi and ask him to help me think of an idea to become faster than you."

"I can also go to Li Qi."

"But Li Qi likes me the most."

Said quite arrogantly.

Li Qi didn't care about them either, he still focused on his pottery making team.

In addition, this required a lot of soil, so Li Qi simply asked Taba to lead a team to dig a row of cave kilns directly on the hillside.

And he was in front of the cave, continuing to teach them their skills.

When Li Qi wandered among the crowd, looking at the roulette wheels turning like machines one by one, he felt that he was in the era of artificial intelligence, which was really cool.

This undoubtedly accelerated the birth of pottery.

……

On this day, all the people in Heishi Valley came to the hillside, because the first batch of fired pottery will be released today, and everyone is looking forward to it.

After Rong carefully opened the stone slab covering it, Li Qi squatted down and stared inside, with a smile gradually appearing on his face. The others stood at the bottom of the slope, looking forward to it.

After a while, when Li Qi took out the stew pot he made himself.

There were exclamations down the slope.

This is much more beautiful than what they did last time, it is black and shiny, in their eyes, it is like a treasure.

Li Qi looked carefully at the stewing pot. When he saw these pottery for the first time, he thought he made porcelain, because the appearance was very bright, but it was not so smooth when he held it in his hand, maintaining the pottery. Texture, and it is heavier than the pottery of later generations!
The stew pot was a little heavy in his hands, but in Rong Rong's hands, it was really too light.

Taba came up to look at it, and asked, "Why is this so much better than last time?"

Only then did Li Qi explain the reason to Taba, the main reason being the difference between high temperature and uniform temperature.

After Taba finished listening, he sat aside and thought quietly again.

Li Qi didn't care about him, because Taba's comprehension ability didn't require him to explain too much, he held up the stew pot, and said loudly: "Tomorrow I will use them to make more delicious dishes for you to eat .”

There was another round of cheers down the slope, much louder than before. After all, for them, eating is the most important thing.

And Li Qi also had to use pottery immediately, so as to prompt them to produce more pottery. If they didn't use it too much, they would lose interest immediately after the novelty wore off.

Afterwards, Rong took out other pottery. Most of the first batch were pottery wheels, and only Li Qi made two stewing pots.

But immediately put another one in, this batch is all bowls, after all, they are all made by novices, far less delicate than those bowls of later generations, but it is much better than those bowls at the beginning.In fact, Li Qi does not have high requirements for bowls, as long as he can use them.

After Rong lit the fire again, everyone returned to the cave happily with newly baked pottery in their hands. As soon as they returned to the cave, they started making pottery. They just got the new pottery wheel and had to try it immediately. It also keeps them motivated.

Li Qi didn't go back to the cave with them. He went to a big rock and scanned the stone. Suddenly, his eyes locked on a small hole.

impossible!This is really incredible!Li Qi looked at the handful of white crystals in the hole, his eyes were filled with shock. After a while, he stretched out his trembling hand, wiped a little bit of white crystals from the hole with his fingers, and put it on the tip of his tongue. After licking it, he suddenly opened his eyes and said, "What pure salt! How is this possible. This salt...salt actually grows on trees."

That day, he poured all the juice of the ginkgo fruit into the small eye, just to see if it contained salt, or if the fruit would taste like this. He never thought that the fruit actually contained salt, and this The salt is much purer than the salt of the later generations, and what is even more astonishing is that this salt has a little bit of the unique fragrance of fruit, which may be sold for a sky-high price in the later generations.

"what a pity.."

Li Qi sighed suddenly, "It's a pity that no one is doing business these days, and even the grain is not allowed to go out. Otherwise, with the pottery and this salt, what kind of hunting would we have to break our own legs, and then lie down and wait?" Just eat."

Speaking of this, he squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "That's not right! Not now, doesn't mean there won't be in the future. Trading is also a kind of civilization. If I want to speed up civilization, I must light up this chilling tree. Civilization tree."
