Survival of Prehistoric Widows [Farming]
Chapter 22: Pottery is not easy
Although the pottery that Lu Er burned for the first time was a bit ugly, it was actually pottery, light, fire-resistant, water-proof, and stable (if the bowl bottom was flat). It had all the advantages over the stone pots and pots used in the tribe. Calabash is much better.
Therefore, Lu Er quickly found Zhong and showed the pottery bowl he made successfully.
In the past few days, Lu Yan had been shrinking in his tent every afternoon and didn’t know what to do. The tent near Lu Ling often smelled of fireworks. He thought that Lu Ling was cooking some herbs, but he didn’t expect that he was studying this. thing?
Pottery was quickly popular in the primitive period of the earth, and it was not until the emergence of porcelain that gradually declined after a long, long time. Of course, it has its appeal.
Rewatching that Lu Er used that small pottery bowl to boil a bowl of water, he immediately realized the advantages of this new type of container, and quickly agreed to Lu Er's request to assign a few orcs or Asian animals to learn pottery promotion.
These Asian beasts who learned to make pottery from Lu Er are different from those who were punished to repair the toilet last time. Repairing the toilet is considered punishment, and learning pottery is a reward.
For those who study pottery, Lu Er did not mention any additional thresholds, only one requirement: "You must be honest, hardworking and careful, and it is best to do it by hand."
Nodded: "No problem, I will pick people carefully."
"One more thing... Is there any more viscous soil near the tribe?"
In the past few days, different clays have been used to make pottery. The broken products Lu Er did not directly discard them. After carefully observing their state, he found that the mud embryos made from the clay with higher viscosity had fewer cracks. The surface of the finished product is also smoother.
The result of failure is sometimes easier to summarize the pattern than success.
Lu Er tried a few more mud embryos with the clay with the best viscosity, and found that the yield was almost a quarter.
This is the result of only small plates and bowls currently being fired by Lu Er. For larger containers, such as pottery pots and even pottery urns, the yield may be too low.
This yield is very contingent, so Lu Yan wanted to find out if there was better soil available.
He paid great attention to pottery and replied after serious consideration: "The tribe walked along the back of the sun for a while, and the soil on the other side turned black and became sticky when stepped on it. I don't know if it meets your requirements.
You have to go and see if it meets the requirements. Lu Er thanked him, and was ready to go back and make preparations, and go to see where he said it again.
Called him again, and asked with some worry: "Although it is still in the tribal safety circle, there is no danger, it is better to find an orc to accompany you, if you encounter a wild beast, you will be very dangerous if you are a beast."
Lu Ye nodded, thanking him for his concern, and said with a smile: "Don't worry."
…
Because the sub-beasts are generally better than the orcs in the degree of care, the re-summoned are basically the sub-beasts, there is only one orc, and it is still the one that Lu Er knows very well.
"Lee?" Lu Yan looked at the handsome boy in front of him with some surprise, remembering the big fluffy tail, and couldn't help reaching out and touching the little orc's long red hair head, "Why are you here too?" "
Li raised his head triumphantly: "I have a clever hand!"
He is a fox orc, and he really deserves the compliment of "ingenuity".
Li was very young. Before staying with Huawei was basically just for fun. When he was repairing the toilet, he was taught some basic mathematics. He quickly turned into a fan of Lu and was full of admiration for Lu.
Zhong originally didn't want to pick someone related to the last Huawei disturbance, and Lu Wei was dissatisfied with the province. Unexpectedly, Li just happened to hear about it and cried and cried while holding his thigh. He would stop letting him come over. He was so annoyed that he had to agree.
Lu Er still had the impression of Li's speed in learning numbers when he was building public toilets and septic tanks. He smiled at the words and stopped to say more. He began to patiently teach these Asian beasts to burn pottery.
In fact, it was teaching. Lu Yan himself was groping to burn the pottery, so he didn’t put up any airs. He carefully explained the general process and the points of attention he summarized in the past few days, and then started experimenting with these Asian beasts. .
It has to be said that although these sub-beasts who have been re-selected are obstructive of vision and don't know much, but their minds are delicate enough, Lu Er pointed out a few key points, and they can do it carefully and safely when making mud embryos.
And in a practical sense, the Asian beasts also put forward a lot of suggestions about grips or rope holes.
High-end artistic sense needs to be cultivated, but the aesthetics of neat, round and symmetrical naturally exist in the hearts of all creatures.
The first small bowls, small pots and small dishes were made, and each one was much more neat and beautiful than the first machine made by Lu Er himself.
Xiao Mi lay on the ground, looking at the neat, smooth and stable small pottery bowls, and then thinking about the "love rice bowl" she swayed on the ground hidden in the tent, her blue eyes couldn't blink. Blinked to Lu Er.
Lu Wei coughed, pretending that he didn't see Xiao Mi's sad eyes, and instructed the Asian beasts to carefully move the mud embryos to the side to dry them, and then pick up firewood to prepare charcoal.
Dry the mud embryos, prepare charcoal, and burn pottery.
When the flames gradually extinguished, and the unbroken mud embryos all turned into uniform terracotta, the Asian beasts could not help themselves holding the small and light pottery.
They have never seen such a light and easy-to-use pot and bowl!
Even young cubs can be picked up and walked around. The bottom is much thinner than the stone pot. A little bit of fire will quickly heat the water in the pot. When borrowing the leader’s stone pot, it’s necessary. Burn a lot of firewood to heat it up!
The most important thing is that these easy-to-use jars were made by themselves!
No need for the orcs to work hard to find stones from outside the tribe, and then spend a lot of time slowly emptying them out, just need some mud and wood, and you can make a bite of such a small pot in two days.
He told them again that Luer promised that they would have the priority to supply the burned items.
-In the future, will they be able to boil water and boil meat in their own homes?
While the Asian beasts were pleasantly surprised, they couldn't help but quietly looked at the Asian beast holding the kitten, frowning and playing with a small dish.
The sub-beasts that were re-hunted were all types of honesty, daily work, and little participation in gossip. Therefore, they have never targeted Green Ears before, at most because of the "catastrophe." The name head kept away from the green ears.
In fact, because of Green-eared autism, these sub-beasts rarely see Green-eared, and some don't even remember his appearance.
It wasn't until Lu Er healed Yong's injury that the image of the Asian beast appeared in their eyes.
The lonely travels and the weird whereabouts, these various behaviors of the original body, suddenly because of the identity of the "witch doctor", cast a mysterious halo, which made ordinary Asian beasts curious and awed.
Burning pottery this time brought them into close contact with Lu Er, and found that Lu Er was neither as timid, timid, and incompetent as Huawei and the others said, nor was he as treacherous as the witch doctors in the big tribe. dark.
He always has a gentle temperament on his body, he looks good when he smiles, his eyes are calm, some people will not get angry if they do well, and some people will praise if they do well.
That kind of feeling didn't know how to say it, it made them especially want to be close to Lu Er.
It's just that, after all, I'm not familiar with Lu Yan, and there is a reputation as a witch doctor, so the Asian beasts are very cautious.
However, Li did not have so many worries when he was young. He liked to play with Lu Er, so he leaned close to Lu Er and played coquettishly. Seeing that Xiao Mi was sore on the side, he secretly determined to throw Li to Lie after he changed back. Let Lie practice him well.
Compared to the Asian beasts' love for pottery, Lu Er was actually a little bit dissatisfied.
The yield of these pottery is too low.
The yield of clay pots with the size of children's heads has been as low as one-sixth, and bowls and plates are slightly better, but not more than one-fourth.
Together with where he is, five sub-beasts and one orc, after two days of hard work, only one clay pot and five or six dishes were successfully burned out.
Although there are not too many orcs in the Redwood Tribe, the efficiency of this pottery is definitely not up to the actual demand.
Not to mention that in the future, Lu Er plans to make larger pots and urns.
-It seems that we still need to improve the materials and craftsmanship of pottery.
The rules set by Lu Er were to make pottery under his hands. According to the amount of workmanship, the pottery could be brought back directly, and the rest would be allocated according to the magnitude of the contribution of the orcs in reclaiming the land and planting crops.
Of course, he doesn't care if the person who gets the pottery trades it privately.
The improvement of pottery craftsmanship requires a long period of time and repeated trials and explorations. Now the key to the fastest improvement in quality is to make clay embryos.
Lu Er intends to take a look at the reiterated place.
