Reborn Craftsman

If there are thieves who won't be caught, it's okay to indulge them like this.

Liu Xing replied: "This outsider knew at a glance that he was with the people who smashed the brick factory before. Let them be arrogant first, and wait for them to cry when the brick factory reopens."

"Do you have a plan?" Sikong Leilian asked.

"Well, but I can't say that, you just need to calmly manage the brick factory!" Liu Xing said in a low voice.

"Okay! With your words, I'm relieved!" Sikong Lei took out the key and opened the gate of the brick factory. In order to prevent the motorcycle from being stolen, he ran over and pushed the motorcycle on the side of the road. Inside the brick factory.

And Liu Xing, led by his father Liu Dageng, came to the mountain of slag.

There are two machines for crushing slag on the side.

This was customized by Sikong Lei according to his requirements.

However, Liu Xing glanced at the crushed slag, and immediately shook his head and said, "This slag must be crushed even finer. If it is so thick, red bricks cannot be fired at all."

"Okay! Okay! How detailed are you?" Sikong Lei asked a little unconvinced.

Liu Dageng also smiled wryly, and he didn't believe it. The use of slag to fire red bricks was due to the thickness of the slag.

"At least it can't be smaller than the size of pig feed at home, which is about five millimeters!" Liu Xing thought for a while and replied.

"The thickness of the slag crushed by this crusher can be adjusted. I'll crush some out now!" Seeing that Liu Xing didn't look like he was joking, Sikong Lei immediately pressed the switch of the grinder to crush the slag.

Seeing that it was still a bit rough, I turned off the grinder and adjusted it again.

It wasn't until Liu Xing's requirements were met that he crushed them in large quantities.

Liu Dageng was on the sidelines to help out, pouring the slag into the pulverizer with a shovel.

After a while, a large pile of crushed slag was crushed out.

Liu Xing grabbed a handful with his hand and looked carefully, and when he saw that it was almost done, he said: "These crushed slag can be used to make brick embryos, remember to add more water, the ratio of mud protrusions to slag is about five." It can't be lower than this ratio, and it can't be more than this ratio."

"Okay!" Sikong Lei nodded upon hearing this.

Liu Dageng didn't say anything, he scooped up the mud with a shovel, and carefully mixed it according to the ratio Liu Xing said.

Originally, brick embryos could be made by machinery.

But Liu Dageng was afraid of the waste of electricity, so he used manual production.

After all, there are a lot of tools for making brick embryos by hand in the brick factory.

It's just that he has some doubts in his heart. Liu Xing's method of using slag to make brick embryos may not work.

After all, he had tried it before.

Since the soil in the brick factory is all sand and mud, it has no stickiness, and it is mixed with the non-sticky slag, so I'm afraid it won't work at all.

Seeing that the brick embryo mud mixed with slag was a bit dry, he immediately picked up a ladle and poured a ladle of water into it.

When it was mixed again, Liu Dageng's eyes widened. He looked at the mixed brick clay in his hands as if he had seen a ghost.For some unknown reason, the soil became sticky, and it never spread out like before.

Sikong Lei also noticed this scene, and he asked Liu Xing in a voiceless voice: "What's going on? Why didn't there appear any stickiness at all when we mixed the slag and these sand and mud?"

"That's because the mixing ratio of sand and slag is wrong, of course it will not produce stickiness, but you have to move quickly, the stickiness will soon disappear with the evaporation of water, quickly make more brick embryos, and then get Fire it in the red brick sample furnace!" Liu Xing explained the reason with a smile.

In fact, using slag to fire red bricks is not technical at all. After decades, this will be eliminated. As long as the ratio is basically correct, the fired red bricks will definitely be leveraged because of the slag in them. of.

The composition of the slag contains metal elements such as iron, zinc, copper, etc. Of course, the most important element is iron.

After being fired in the furnace, metal elements such as iron elements are fused with the soil, and its hardness can be imagined.

Red bricks fired from slag were once all the rage because of their hardness.

Even if the price is twice that of other ordinary red bricks, there are people rushing to buy them.

Chapter 358

Of course, as the price of slag rose, there were fewer and fewer brick factories using slag to make red bricks.

In the end, even the brick factories were eliminated.

Not because of the quality of the red bricks.

But decades later, due to environmental protection and other reasons, the rural areas are not allowed to have large-scale environmental pollution factories such as brick factories.

This is a kind of progress of the times, but also a kind of sorrow of the times.

Because when we really wait until this time, the house price will be frighteningly high. I'm afraid it's a white-collar worker with an annual income of one million. house.

How did Liu Dageng and Sikong Lei know this, they only know that they have succeeded in making brick embryos from the slag, which is a great progress, so they quickly rolled up their sleeves and started busy making other brick embryos.

The red brick sample furnace can only burn about 200 yuan of red bricks at one time, unlike those large kilns in brick factories, which can burn tens of thousands of bricks at one time.

Of course, this red brick sample furnace also has its advantages.

That is, the speed of firing red bricks is very fast.

Basically as long as there is no problem.

It should be done in an hour or so.

Seeing that dozens of brick embryos had been produced, Liu Xing was not idle at the moment, and walked towards the red brick sample furnace with a wooden plank.

Although this kind of work is dirty and tiring, he doesn't care at all.

In his heart, he still remembers how his father fired red bricks on the grain drying field day and night in order to build his own red brick house.

Due to the soil problem, it took the whole family busy for three years to burn the red bricks needed for the red brick house.

But so what, the red brick house was finally built.

My younger sister was crushed to death by the old adobe brick house because of poverty.

Now he has reversed the situation and rescued his sister.

But for some reason, whenever he thinks of red bricks, his heart hurts.

Because it will remind him of the cute little peanut.

But it's all right now, because of his rebirth, his family will never suffer such hardships again.

The production speed of the 200 yuan brick embryos was very fast, that is, in half an hour, all the brick embryos were not only produced, but also neatly placed into the red brick sample furnace.

Next is the red brick that needs to be fired into shape.
