Infrastructure maniacs from the East

In a sense, the power of more people still makes sense.

Today Jack and ten female slaves spent the morning teaching the rest of the slaves, and the results they brought in the afternoon were all kinds of strange pots and pans, and two of the same half-meter vats that grew rapidly. Clay talent.

As the fiery red sunset fell, Xu Tian stopped without hesitation, and then everyone handed out beans. The slaves were not lazy, but most of them were worthy of the beans Xu Tian paid. Everyone was a novice in making pottery, Xu Tian The great lord can't tell who is lazy and who really has no talent, but it doesn't matter, as time goes on, everyone takes their time.

For the remaining few days, Xu Tian only kept the two girls who did odd jobs and the three girls who were talented in pottery. This made the agricultural officer feel relieved, but he still wondered what Xu Tian was going to do. But he got a new order—to pile up the withered grass and small trees, and he will use them in a few days.

The housekeeper and agricultural officer didn't know what Xu Tian was going to do, and Xu Tian didn't explain. He just took Little Jack to watch the female slaves do their handicrafts, and then from time to time to see the pottery embryos made on the first day. Xu Tian would sigh and ask Little Jack to bring them back to make pottery embryos again.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, Tao Yu was finally done, and Xu Tian finally stopped wandering by the river to watch the girls burn pottery. He went to the agricultural officer again, took two strong male slaves, and started to burn pottery. pottery.

Everyone's pottery is different, but Xu Tian has asked them to mark their own pottery after they are done. The Chinese characters from one to ten are divided into one for each person, and Little Jack uses a circle instead.

About one-third of the pottery embryos were broken, but most of them were in the pile with less crushed leaves and stone powder. The half-meter tank that Xu Tian placed high hopes on was filled with more stone powder and crushed leaves. Fortunately Being retained, the next they will undergo the second round of tests - pottery embryos crossing the volcano.

However, after being crushed to pieces, this is rebirth from Nirvana.

The dried pottery embryos were divided into two parts. Xu Tian hesitated for a long time, and finally put the half-meter vat into a small fire.

Several small trees have been dried in the sun, relatively strong male slaves split them into existences that are as suitable for burning as possible, the underside of the pottery embryos has been cleared into an open space that is as flat as possible, branches and dry firewood are carefully placed on them, and the side is cleaned A circle of fire belts was drawn, and the flames from the kitchen were carefully brought over, and a new home was built on this piece of fuel.

There is still a lot of fuel in reserve next to it, and I ordered a relatively experienced slave to watch the fire. When the fire is low, continue to put fuel until it is all used up before leaving.

About 20 meters away from this place, Xu Tian circled an open space, and then asked the slaves to dig a hole, which was about the length of one and a half palms of one of the male servants.Make the bottom as flat as possible, and then pad with thick hay.

The dried mud embryos were carefully moved to the dry grass and arranged neatly, each spaced apart from each other by the width of three fingers, and the gaps between them were filled with fine branches and leaves and dry grass, and the slaves carefully pressed the porcelain firmly, and then The inside is also filled with hay suitable for burning, which is also compacted by hand.

The next steps are similar. Each time the hay is piled up to a palm-width height, they are gently pressed down until the largest half-meter tank is also covered with grass, and then it is finished for a certain height.

What are the next steps?

Xu Tian tried his best to think about the content of the novel—seal it!

Don't say anything, everyone went back to the river and made mud, and the steps were the same as making pottery clay, but this time it had to be made to such an extent that they couldn't even be grasped by hand.

The agricultural officer has already decided that the lord is a lunatic. If the soil is made into a shape and put in the fire, it can be made into something that can hold water like a wooden barrel. This is not madness.

But it doesn't matter, the lord is just a few slaves, if he dies, he will die, his son Jack can eat bird eggs thanks to the lord's "crazy", otherwise how could he catch up with such a good thing, it's just cheap Those slaves are gone, are those slaves worthy of eating such good beans?And everyone has it?

It's just a pity for the wood.

Xu Tian didn't know about the agricultural officer's complaints, or he didn't care if he knew. As a person who even had to boil his drinking water alone, he had already realized how out of tune he was with this land. As long as no one said it clearly, he could pretend not to know. Anyway, his current status is a nobleman and the owner of this land.

The wooden barrels came in handy again. Buckets of mud were brought over by the servants. Two handy maids spread them on the grass as evenly as possible. Xu Tian personally instructed Jack to connect them with the ground. Four holes were left in the direction, and the remaining places were all smeared with thick mud, and some mud was left for later use.

Borrowing a kindling from the fire not far away, Little Jack stretched in from the four holes to ignite the grass blades inside. Xu Tian squatted down to check the situation, and sealed the four holes simply after confirming that the fire was successfully ignited inside. , leaving only a place where a finger can be inserted for ventilation, so as to prevent the flame inside from being extinguished due to lack of oxygen.

"You stay here and watch it, and when it goes out, run over and tell me."

Xu Tian pointed to a girl who looked the smallest, and grabbed another handful of beans as her meal for the day. The little girl's eyes lit up immediately, and she nodded quickly.

The agricultural officer moved his lips, but still didn't say anything.

The lord is a man of measure, and the two fire watchers he selected are the youngest, and they can't do much fire in the field, so there is no need for him to argue with the lord because of the two slaves.

"Schedule different rotations of slaves during the day and night, one handful of beans at a time."

Xu Tian handed the leather bag in his hand to the agricultural officer—the leather goods here are quite well-developed, but when the previous lord left, he even took his clothes with him. Found it in a mouse hole.

"Little Jack can also participate."

After thinking about it, Lord Xu decided to give that little teacher a little more benefit. Now that even the housekeeper and agricultural officer can only barely eat enough, beans that can make adults eat half full should still be very attractive... Bar?

In fact, the appeal of this bean is much greater than Xu Tian imagined, but Xu Tian doesn't care about these, so he doesn't know how many disputes have been caused by the bean that is generally tasted and pitiful in his eyes .

Leather goods are quite developed here, but unfortunately it is limited to big cities, because leather goods are a luxury, and only big nobles in big cities can afford them—there are only a few cobblers.

Although their side is barely considered prosperous, it is obviously still a long way from the big city——

"The feces of the big cities are piled up into the walls."

People here are envious, jealous, and word of mouth.

As soon as the pottery was done, Xu Tian continued to study the new plow with the carpenters and blacksmiths. Only when he thought of it occasionally, he would look at the pottery fired on both sides. The pottery fired directly with wood has come out, although broken I picked a few, but the rest were a satisfying brick-red or brown color that made a pleasant sound when tapped.

The pottery, which was cleaned and put in an iron pot and boiled once, was placed in front of Xu Tian. Although they were all round, flat, flat, ugly, or ugly, Xu Tian was so relieved that he almost shed tears—no matter what How about it, at least it was successfully boiled, and he finally didn't have to temporarily burn it every time he drank water, but he didn't need to eat for the time being, because Xu Tian was obsessed with work and couldn't help himself, so he ate cold boiled boiled eggs every day.

The direct firing takes a relatively short time, while the other side of the grave, ah no, the mound of soil will take longer to burn. In order to ensure its safety and see them come out with his own eyes, Xu Tian let them burn in the soil. I stayed here for a few more days, until the new plow successfully entered the soil and received cheers before I had time to look at the long-cooled grave bag, ah no, the mound.

After elegantly talking with the agricultural officer about his life, Xu Tian quietly slipped away. After all, there were only two knights by his side. Although the agricultural officer might not be able to fight with all his might, why would he fight if he could hide? To dig a grave, ah no, open a mound.

With such thoughts in mind, Xu Tian met Little Jack on the road, and took him away with him, followed by the curious butler. He didn't see it when he pulled the pottery out of the fire last time, but pottery is better than wood. It is really easy to use, this time he must not miss it again.

A group of people came to the tomb bag in such a mighty way, ah no, beside the mound, the mud had already dried up, and there were many small cracks on it. After seeing the pottery that came out first, the agricultural officer sent A little slave has been guarding here. Seeing the lord coming, he retreated in panic. The butler brought a wooden stick, which can be used as a tool to break the soil. The grass leaves below have been burned. , the upper layer of soil with cracks was nothing but a paper tiger, a few sticks made a hole, but when he heard a crash, the housekeeper's body froze immediately.

The crisp sound is obviously not caused by the falling of the mud, it can only be caused by an accident with the pottery inside. Fortunately, I have seen broken pottery before, so Xu Tian is still mentally prepared, and even has the mood to let the housekeeper continue.

Butler... Butler is panicking now.

Everyone can see Xu Tian's emphasis on pottery. Except for one pottery and one pottery, the rest were put away by the lord. Now I just want to keep a little mystery, but I was misunderstood by the housekeeper), and he just probably...maybe...it seems...broken the pottery? !

"It's okay, continue."

At the critical moment, Xu Tian's voice brought the butler back to his senses, and he continued to knock with trembling hands. Fortunately, nothing happened later, only two of the pottery were broken, and the rest were intact, and the half-meter jar was the same.

"this is normal."

Seeing the butler staring at the two broken pottery in a daze, Xu Tian smiled and comforted him.

"Use it to make delicious food for you at night."

After thinking about it, Xu Tian said again.

Xu Tian didn't say anything outrageous, and the half-meter tank was cleaned and put into the kitchen, which was the blurred shadow Bert saw.
