After living on a desert island, they all plotted evil against me.

Zhou Fang was also absolutely unwilling.

Don't talk about being on a deserted island now.

Even if the future is out of danger, a woman in her thirties can still have a few more years of youth!

You can't really turn into the kind of dejected person who just silently cries with Zhang Liu, Xiang Wanying or Gu Xixi's children in the end.

As a woman with higher education in the new era.

No matter what, she hopes that she can give birth to another child!

Xiang Wanying's back was turned to Zhou Fang while she was talking to Zhang Liu, so she didn't notice the change in her godmother's expression behind her.

But Gu Xixi noticed it.

I understand that my words are a bit excessive.

So she quickly stepped forward and hugged Zhang Liu, and then said with a smile on her face: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore, but you performed very well today."

"Ok?"

Gu Xixi's attitude changed so quickly that Zhang Liu felt really unprepared.

He stared blankly at the other person who was hugging him.

Then he asked: "Xixi, what's wrong with you?"

"Now there are only me, Sister Wanying, and your godmother, and you can't cope with it. In the future, with Miss Ruoyan and the others, it will be even more difficult for you."

Although he was talking to Zhang Liu.

But Gu Xixi's eyes kept falling on Zhou Fang.

Unable to determine why the other person was suddenly in a bad mood, she tried to adjust the topic.

Hearing Gu Xixi's words.

Zhang Liu fell into silence, while Zhou Fang's expression became even more gloomy.

She realized this in her mind.

What happened between him and Zhang Liu was so difficult for even his two goddaughters to accept.

What should I tell my students in the future...

"Well……"

Xiang Wanying nodded slightly in approval.

In her opinion.

What Gu Xixi said now still makes sense.

And Xiang Wanying herself wanted to give Zhang Liu some "couple relationship adjustment courses."

At present, the girls have formed cliques even before they have settled into a relationship.

In the future, she will really establish a relationship with Zhang Liu, even after giving birth to an heir.

This network of relationships will become even more messy.

Now it's just feelings, everyone can be irrational and ignore the kindness of their sweetheart to other people.

Even as soon as his brain gets hot, he agrees to sleep with his wife and even more other ways of playing.

In the future, when the relationship gradually becomes stronger and turns into family affection, then you will not be able to see your relatives being kind to others!

Even the twin sisters Qin Ruoyan and Qin Ruoshuang may not be able to work together and speak to the outside world in unison.

"On this point, Master Zhang Liu, you really want more..."

Xiang Wanying was about to continue talking when the voices of Xiang Lingying and others suddenly came from outside Bamboo House No. [-].

Half of the morning has passed, and the work in the taro field has been completed.

Although Anya and others had the job of going up the mountain and going around to the foot of the west mountain to collect shells.

But they wanted to work hard on the mountainside before leaving.

So everyone began to move towards Bamboo House No. [-] in a swarm.

that's it.

Xiang Wanying's first "teaching" was forced to end in a hurry.

Zhang Liu also said goodbye to everyone and walked to the open space outside to start looking for a suitable place to build an iron-making blast furnace.

He raised his head and glanced at the sky, which was still cloudy.

A thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

This rainy season may really be over.

I smelled the musty smell produced by the bamboo huts at the mountainside shelter that had been soaked in rain for a long time.

There was an expression of anticipation on Zhang Liu's face. He hadn't been exposed to the sun in a bamboo house for a long time.

Regarding the construction plan for the iron-making blast furnace, Zhang Liu already had a rough idea in mind.

As for the specific location...

After looking around, he arranged the place for his first iron-making in the open space next to Bamboo House No. [-].

It's empty on all sides.

Even if there is an accident such as iron smelting failure during the refining process and the entire brick kiln exploding, there is absolutely no dangerous problem based on the size of the open space here.

After determining the location, Zhang Liu began to build it.

Because currently only charcoal can be used to provide heat energy.

So he didn't expect to be able to build any particularly large iron-making furnace.

Before building the iron-making furnace, Zhang Liu dug a pit more than ten centimeters deep and ten centimeters wide on the ground with a shovel.

The shape of the pit is roughly controlled to be about a square.

If nothing else happens, it will be the gathering point of slag and solidified molten iron. At the beginning, this will also serve as an air inlet for blowing air under the charcoal.

As for the next work, he cannot start immediately yet.

　 Taking a step forward, Zhang Liu walked to Bamboo House No. [-] and greeted a few girls to start moving bricks with him.

PS·This is the flow chart for building an iron-making furnace.

(Originally, four chapters were updated today, but because the next chapter involves two drawings and requires confirmation of information, three chapters are guaranteed.)

Chapter 4: There is no toilet, so the girls can only expose themselves in the open air

Yesterday's toilet and today's iron-making furnace can be regarded as using up a considerable part of the bricks that everyone has accumulated over the past few days.

Originally, there were at least 1000 bricks piled in the corner of Bamboo House No. [-].

Now there are less than a hundred left.

After the bricks were placed, the girls returned to Bamboo House No. [-] to continue making, while Zhang Liu began to dig holes.

In order to increase the temperature inside, it is best to have a groove below the iron-making furnace to provide a "straight-line through-core air" above.　　

While digging a hole.

He was already designing the length.

For a square iron-making furnace, at least one brick should be able to be placed horizontally or vertically.

In other words, the first brick can be at a [-]-degree angle against the butt of the second brick.

The second brick can be exactly [-] degrees from the third brick.

The third piece can in turn be connected to the fourth piece.

By the time we got to the fourth piece, the fourth ninety degree was just completed.

Four internal ninety degree angles are still equilateral.

Then it is naturally a square.

In this way, you can use this as the base layer to stack upwards.

Of course, the iron-making furnace is used to improve the combustion efficiency of the charcoal fire inside.

It needs an air inlet.

So Zhang Liu knocked a brick in the middle to create a hole as an air intake.

As for the subsequent layers of bricks.

Then they need to be staggered according to the seams to maintain stability.

But the first priority is to fix something similar to an air inlet on the first layer of bricks.

Otherwise, when the subsequent upper bricks are fixed, this thing will not be easy to apply mud.

Think a little.

He soon had a target.

Next to Bamboo House No. [-] of the mountainside shelter, there is a pile of earthen pottery that failed to be refined.

Among them are cups with bell mouth shapes.

You only need to smash the tail end to get a "hollow blowpipe"

Zhang Liu's behavior of running around looking for various things had already attracted the attention of all the girls.

After Anya jumped out.

Only Xiang Wanying, Zhao Yiran, and Qin Ruoshuang were left in Bamboo House No. [-], still working hard to make bricks.

Everyone else walked to the iron-making furnace that Zhang Liu had built on only one floor.

"Why are you all here?" Holding a trumpet-shaped quilt with a broken cup bottom in his hand, Zhang Liu looked at everyone with confusion on his face.

"We want to take a look." Standing at the front of the crowd, Zhou Fang whispered: "Anyway, it's about this time..."

Having said this, she also raised her head and looked at the sky, which was still gloomy.

Although it felt that the time was indeed a bit early, Zhou Fang continued to speak with slightly red cheeks: "It's almost noon, right?"

"It's indeed almost noon." Beside her, Gu Xixi nodded and sent an assist to her godmother.

Facing the words of the two people and the excited eyes of the girls behind them.

Zhang Liu didn't say much.

Building this iron-smelting furnace is not a shameful thing.

Others can watch it if they want to.

Squatting down, he grabbed the soaked soil around him and began to fix the horn-shaped air inlet in his hand.

The small one is pointed inside, and the big one is exposed outside.

Thus.

Relying on the principle of pressure, the "human blower" I am designing can also increase the power of the air intake.

"Zhang Liu, let me help you mix the cement."

Seeing Zhang Liu slowly grabbing the dirt from the ground and applying it to the bricks.

Anya, who wanted to find something to do for herself, immediately ran to the door of Bamboo House No. [-] with her short legs.

After searching around, she came over with a basin of water and poured it into the earthen jar filled with plant ash cement balls.

Accompanied by the sizzling sound following the reaction of quicklime.

A strong smell of quicklime began to spread.

Regarding this smell, the girls subconsciously took a step back.

Anya, on the other hand, didn't care about the smell at all. Holding up a randomly picked branch, she started cosplaying like a witch and stirring the earthen pot in front of her that was halfway up her calf.

Zhang Liu, who turned around to witness the whole process, pursed his lips and said nothing.

He discovered that this little rich woman really had a talent for picking up branches. The one she picked up casually was actually in that straight shape...
