After making the pen for writing, the next step is to make ink.The production of ink requires ink smoke, and the raw materials of ink smoke include oil and pine wood, etc., which can be obtained by burning oil or pine wood.

Among the two methods of extracting ink smoke, Ciye chooses to use pine wood smoke.In order to find suitable wood, Ci Ye went to the forest near the tribe with Hei Yao, and found a tall tree called [Lingxiang Pine] on a high mountain not far from the tribe. The wood of this tree was burned. The pine smoke is quite suitable for making ink.

After returning to the tribe, Ci Ye led the orcs to the mountain to cut pine trees, and then transported them back to the tribe to make ink smoke.While he was busy making ink, the Hundred Birds Tribe passed by the Loud Horde again.

"Ci Ye! Long time no see!" Jingkong flew down from the sky and landed in front of Ci Ye. He wanted to give him a big hug, but was shocked by Hei Yao's eyes.

"Long time no see, Jing Kong!" Ci Ye smiled at him, but his huge tail feathers when his animal shape flew in the sky still appeared in front of his eyes.I really want to use that feather to make a quill!

"It's only been a year since I saw you, and the clan has changed again!" Stunned and familiar, he wandered around in the clan, looking at the mushroom gardens and houses that the clan had grown up with, his eyes were full of novelty.

"Huh? Why are there still fox orcs here?" The eyes caught a figure, and asked in amazement.

Ci Ye replied: "The Fox Tribe left their homes because of the rat plague, and we took them in. The extra houses were built for them."

"So that's the case." Jingkong smiled, then raised his eyebrows, and said, "Our two tribes have known each other for so long, why don't you build us some houses to live in!"

Ci Ye nodded: "Okay, but you have to pay for the raw materials for building the house, as well as the daily food and wages for the orcs!"

"Salary?" Jing Kong looked puzzled.

"Wages are if you ask the orcs of the Howler tribe to help build a house, you have to give them a reward for their labor."

Jingkong waved his hand: "Then I will give each orc a jar of honey every day, as long as they help me build a house."

"So generous?" Ci Ye was a little surprised, "How much honey did you exchange from the cave bear tribe?"

Surprised, he laughed triumphantly: "This time we exchanged a lot of honey. I exchanged half of the honey saved by the cave bear tribe. I exchanged it with tea, wine, and sugar from your tribe."

"Okay!" Ci Ye also curled his mouth, "Then you can go to Dashi to help you build a house. The tribe has the raw materials for building a house, but you have to exchange it!"

"No problem!" Leaving those words behind, Jing Kong hurried away.

After dismissing Jing Kong, Ci Ye ran to the place where the pine smoke was burned and continued to make ink smoke.

Burning pine smoke is carried out in a small airtight bamboo shed with brick flue and smoke holes at every other section.Put the pine wood in and burn it, and let the pine smoke fill the whole small bamboo shed. After a few days, when the shed cools down, you can go in and blow the pine smoke.

"Wu, do you think this bamboo shed can be opened?" Feng Ka has been guarding the small bamboo shed for the past few days, waiting for the pine wood to burn out and the inside to cool down sufficiently.

Ci Ye observed carefully, and said to her: "You can open it, let's go in and get the cigarettes!"

"it is good!"

Opening the small bamboo shed, Ci Ye saw that the bamboo shed was covered with soot.Picking up the prepared tools, the two began to carefully scrape the soot and carefully collected them.

After collecting all the soot, Ci Ye put them aside first, then hurried into the house and took out a can of gum.

This gum is different from snow gum, it is an ordinary resin, and it is very common in the forest.Ci Ye decided to use this resin to boil glue and mix it with soot to make ink.

Set up a pottery pot to boil water, put a small amount of water in it, put the gum in it and cook to get diluted gum, then pour the gum into the soot, and stir evenly, soon the liquid in the pot will be become more viscous.

"What is this?" A voice cut in abruptly, and Ci Ye was so frightened that he almost threw the wooden stick used for stirring and pressing into the pot.

"Jing Kong, it's you! You gave me a fright!" Ci Ye clenched the stick tightly and glanced at him helplessly.

"I smelled the scent of spirit pine here, so I ran over to have a look. I didn't expect you to cook delicious food! Can this kind of dark thing be eaten?" Jing Kong lay on the side of the pot with a curious expression on his face. , seemed to want to taste the taste, but was overwhelmed by the dark appearance.

"This is not something to eat!" Ci Ye shook his head, "This is ink, it's for writing!"

"What is ink? What is writing?" Jing Kong continued to ask, his eyes fixed on Ci Ye.I didn't expect that after not seeing you for a while, Ci Ye was going to make something again!

"When the ink is ready, you will know!" Ci Ye smiled mysteriously and said to him.

"Okay!" Jing Kong curled his lips and stood aside with his arms folded. He wants to see what this ink can become!

When the mixing was almost done, Ci Ye took out the ink base and put it into a mold to press it into shape, and then set it aside to dry.After the ink is dry, it can be used.

"It's ready?" Jing Kong stood aside, watching Ci Ye's series of tedious movements, feeling like his head was getting bigger, and ink couldn't be eaten. Why bother?

"Not yet, you can use it after the ink is dry." Ci Ye explained to him, "By the way, can you give me one of the feathers on your tail?"

"What?" After hearing Ci Ye's request, Jingkong's eyes widened and he jumped up from the ground.

He looked at Ci Ye with strange eyes, and said, "What do you want my feathers for?"

Ci Ye didn't know why Jing Kong reacted so strongly, did the feathers on the tail have a special meaning.He smiled shyly and said, "I want to use your feathers to make a quill."

"What's a quill?" Jing Kong continued to ask.

"A quill is something that can write." Ci Ye walked into the room, took out a few quills made of ordinary bird feathers, and handed them to Jing Kong.

"This is a quill pen? It looks similar to a feather, except that you scratched the bottom a few times." Jing Kong picked up the pen and looked at it carefully several times. "This feather is so ugly, it doesn't look good at all!"

"The inside of this quill pen is empty, and you can dip it in ink to write. After a few days, the ink is ready to dry, and I will show it to you." Ci Ye said to him.

"Okay!" Jingkong nodded, and then looked at Ciye with a subtle look, "We bird orcs will exchange tail feathers when we get married, you ask me for tail feathers, what will happen if Black Yao finds out Like? Hehehe—”

Looking at Jing Kong speechlessly, Ci Ye had no choice but to say: "How about I give you a piece when the ink is finished? Don't tell Hei Yao what happened just now!"

"No, I'm not interested in Mo at all, I don't want it!" Jing Kong shook his head with a mean expression on his face.

Sighing, Ci Ye had no choice but to say, "Then I'll give you a piece of silk!"

"Silk?" Jing Kong was stunned for a moment, and then immediately scolded with a smile, "Okay! Don't tell me you made something good again!"

Feng Ka happened to come over, and when he heard their conversation, he couldn't help laughing out loud, "The silk is made from silk spun by silkworm babies before, the leader of Jing Kong hasn't seen it before, right?"

"Not yet! Let me see and see!" Jing Kong couldn't wait.

"Let's go, go back with me, I'll get you a piece of silk!" Ci Ye handed over the matter of the bamboo shed to Feng Ka, and went home with Jing Kong.

He found a piece of thin and soft silk from the cabinet, and handed it to Jing Kong.

"This... this is too beautiful!" Jing Kong's eyes were glued to the silk, and he couldn't move it away.He had already imagined how beautiful the clothes made of this material would be!

Holding the silk in his hand and gently stroking it, Jingkong asked urgently: "Is there any more silk like this? I still want it! You can exchange it with anything!"

Ci Ye smiled: "The tribe still has some silk, which can be exchanged with you."

"Okay!" Jingkong nodded excitedly, with eager light in his eyes.

"These silks are all made of silk, and the silk is spit out by baby silkworms. Now the tribe is raising more and more silkworms, and it will be able to produce more silk next year!" Ci Ye took out a set of silk from the closet. The clothes, handed over to Jingkong.

Jing Kong looked at the light and soft clothes in his hands, which were embroidered with exquisite patterns, and couldn't put it down, amazed again and again, and refused to put it down after turning it over and over again.

"I also want a set of clothes like this. Your tribe can help me make one, and I'll exchange it!" Jing Kong raised his head and said eagerly to Ci Ye.

Ci Ye thought for a while and said, "Okay, but you have to exchange the ore brought by your Bainiao tribe!"

"I can give you everything!" Jing Kong said firmly, waving his hands.In his eyes, those dirty ores are not as good as beautiful clothes!

"Okay, then use all your ore to change into clothes!" Ci Ye curled his mouth and showed a satisfied smile.

After agreeing on this deal with Jing Kong, Ci Ye went to tell Feng Ka about making clothes.Now the female orcs in the craft team all have a pair of skillful hands in making clothes. The clothes they make are exquisitely patterned and are very popular among the orcs.

"Wu, do you want to make a set of silk clothes for the Jing Kong leader?"

Ci Ye nodded: "Well, he traded the ore brought by the Bainiao tribe this time. Anyway, there is still silk in the tribe, and production will resume next year. Let's take some out and make him a suit of clothes."

"Okay, but what style should the clothes be made into?" Feng Ka continued to ask.

"Hmm..." Ci Ye thought for a while, and said, "The sleeves are big and the clothes are long. I'll draw a sample for you when I go back, and you can follow the above."

He just remembered Jing Kong's long hair, and he was going to make him a suit according to the clothes in the costume drama.Anyway, he looks so good, he should be able to hold up any clothes.

"Wu, the leader of Jing Kong asked us to help him build a house, and he also said that he would pay us with honey and other things."

Dashi ran over from a distance and told Ci Ye about it.

Ci Ye smiled at him: "Well, I know, bird orcs can't stay in the square all the time, anyway, they come here every year, why not build a few houses for them. When moving bricks and wood, remember to let them bird orcs help!"

"Okay!" Dashi also nodded happily. The bird orcs gave them a lot of money, and the roaring orcs were also happy to build a few houses for them to live in.
