Traveling through the world of beasts: Controlling the system and building infrastructure

Chonghua bird? What kind of bird is that? I've never heard of it.

"Um, is there anything wrong with the Chonghua bird?" An Ruochu searched in her head and confirmed that she had never heard of a bird like the Chonghua bird. It sounded like a bird that only existed in novels.

"It's not a problem, it's just that the Chonghua Bird has a stronger destructive power, so it may not be as easy to raise as the Bengbeng Beast." Zihui was a little worried whether the Chonghua Bird would be difficult to manage when it grows up. After all, she could no longer accept the previous blow again.

"Probably not, right?"

Although Zihui's worries are not unreasonable, a cub that has been raised since childhood shouldn't be that wild, right?

"Okay, let's raise it first and see if it's really hard to discipline. We can eat it."

"Then if you've thought it over, just keep it first. There are so many people in the tribe anyway, we can't let the little Chonghua bird cause chaos." After thinking it through, Zihui stopped persuading him.

"Then I'll go to the kiln first. I'm going to start firing pottery today." An Ruochu happily told Zihui about her pottery-firing business.

"What is that?" Zihui heard something from An Ruchu's mouth that she had never heard before.

"It's a good thing that can bring great development to the tribe. If everything goes well today, the first one that's cooked will be yours!"

"Okay, then I'll wait for you." Zihui touched her belly and smiled at An Ruchu. She was obviously in much better condition than when An Ruchu first returned to the tribe.

After bowing to Zihui, An Ruochu rushed to the kiln.

When I got there, I found that Dun was already waiting.

"An An, how do you fire the pottery you mentioned?"

Du En looked at the clay figures made by An Ruochu and Murong.

"Put them in the kiln room, and then put a lot of firewood in the combustion chamber. When the temperature is right, you can fire the pottery." An Ruochu put the dried clay into the kiln room while explaining to Duen how to do it.

After Dun understood, he asked someone to get a lot of firewood from the kitchen.

Mu Rong was also pulled in to do hard labor today because of his skill in making clay figures. Because he was not sure how many attempts it would take to succeed, An Ruochu could only let Mu Rong try as much as possible.

Du'en helped to watch the temperature, and the others followed Murong to make the clay mold.

"You have to make sure the thickness is even." Mu Rong was doing it himself while also giving instructions to the person next to him.

An Ruochu felt balanced when she saw other people having the same craftsmanship as her.

I told you, this is difficult.

The waiting time for firing the first batch of clay embryos was long, and finally after a while, Dun opened the kiln chamber.

Everyone was feeling somewhat depressed as they looked at the exploded pottery. They spent a whole morning firing up a whole furnace, so at least one should be complete, but in the end, it all exploded, leaving not a single one.

"Okay, don't be discouraged. This is only the first time. We have to try a few more times." An Ruchu encouraged everyone.

She went forward to check and found out what caused the failed pottery to break.

The clay has been dried for a long time after being left to air dry, so it won’t burst due to not being completely dry.

The first batch of bowls contained the pottery that An Ruochu had made before, and the clay embryos made by Mu Rong. He originally planned to fire them after the experiments were completed.

"It's probably because the thickness of the clay embryo is uneven, so it caused the cracking. Let's try replacing this batch of clay embryos with Mu Rong's." An Ruochu didn't know how to make pottery, so he could only estimate the cause of the failure based on the system's introduction.

"Let's burn it again." An Ruochu sighed.

In the morning, everyone had already made a lot of clay figurines. An Ruochu asked them to split into two groups, one to get some more clay, and the other to collect some firewood.

An Ruochu and Du En were watching the fire here, and they even ate their meals while squatting next to the kiln.

But fortunately, there is a glimmer of hope.

"It's one!"

After the kiln cooled down, An Ruochu used a wooden stick to pick up the pottery fragments and finally found an intact bowl under the fragments.

"Great, we finally have our first piece of pottery."

[Ding, limited-time mission, successfully fired a piece of pottery. Status: Completed. Reward: Mineral Manual. ]

An Ruochu was delighted as she listened to the report in the system. After the kiln was built, she was given a book on pottery making methods, and now she was given a smelting code. This meant that she had officially started her handicraft industry.

However, there is still a loom blueprint given to her by Si in her backpack that has not been made yet, and there are so many tasks to do.

When Du En heard An Ruochu say that the pottery was fired, he hurried forward and excitedly took the pottery that had just cooled down in his hands, feeling the warmth coming from the pottery.

"This thing is so light, much lighter than a wooden bowl." It was also very surprising when Dunn saw it for the first time. It was unexpected that such a thing could be made out of clay.

"Of course, but I want to keep this one for Zihui, and share it with everyone after it's cooked." An Ruochu quickly decided on the first bowl, fearing that it would be taken away by others if she wasn't paying attention.

"Row."

With the first success, everyone finally got excited and quickly fired up another furnace while the iron was hot.

"Uncle Duen, you are old, so go back and rest." An Ruochu looked at the sky as it was getting dark and decided to let Duen go back to rest while she would look after the kiln.

"No, no, no. My old bones can endure it, but An An, you can't fall down." Du En quickly refused. It was okay for him not to rest, but he couldn't let An Ruchu get too tired.

An Ruo couldn't resist Guo En at first sight, so she had to agree. Fortunately, the furnace had been burning for a while and it wouldn't take too long.

An Ruochu solemnly handed the first pottery bowl of the wolf tribe to Zihui.

"Is this the pottery you mentioned? This is amazing!" When Zihui heard that the small bowl in her hand was made of clay, she didn't believe it. It was not until An Ruochu confirmed it again and again that she believed it. Seeing the pattern painted in the center of the small bowl, Zihui was a little curious about what it was.

"What is this pattern? Why have I never seen it before?" Zihui pointed to the grooves on the bowl.

"This is your name. I specially carved it with a bone knife. How do you like it? This is uniquely yours. It's the first pottery bowl in the wolf tribe!" An Ruochu explained to Zihui with great pride.

"Zihui is written on it? It's actually words?" Zihui looked at An Ruchu in shock.

"Yes, you know the characters!" An Ruochu looked at Zihui in amazement. She was also curious about the characters in the beast world. If Zihui knew how to write, she could also take a look at the characters in the beast world.

"How could I know this? Only witches can inherit the written language." Zihui shook her head.

"Granny Sen is a witch, so doesn't that mean she understands words?" An Ruchu asked curiously.

"I don't know. I've never heard Granny Qi Sen say that."
