Super Chief
Chapter 64: Furnace
The development of the tribe has gradually been on the right track, which makes Shi Xiong's mood more and more happy.
Although everything is not even the pointy corners of the little lotus, it can be regarded as arousing the cohesion of the tribesmen. This is the foundation of all careers.
North American Indians are a race that likes infighting, so even if North American Indians have lived on the vast continent of North America for tens of thousands of years, they have never produced a complete regime. This is also the fundamental reason why European whites finally killed the North American Indians, who had an overwhelming number of people, and almost became extinct.
To put it bluntly, North American Indians lack a kind of cohesion.
If these two million Indians can be huddled together, why would those European whites kill the Indians with hundreds of thousands of strong fighters? Even if these Indian fighters don't have heat weapons, even guerrillas can make those European whites miserable.
At that time, Grandpa Mao was able to lead the martyrs with broadswords and millet plus rifles to defeat the little devil who owns aircraft, cannon, and machine gun. Why? Isn't it a high degree of cohesion?
Old Jiang’s troops had aircraft, artillery, machine guns, but weren’t they also scammed by the little devil? In the end, Lao Jiang also lost the great rivers and mountains. Why is this? It's very simple, because Chiang's troops have no cohesion.
If the North American Indians of this era have a high degree of cohesion, those European whites will definitely not be able to cross the Appalachian Mountains westward!
And the purpose of what Shixiong did after coming to the Gaoshu tribe was to stimulate the cohesion of these three hundred people.
It looks obviously good now. Except for a handful of people in the tribe who have opinions about themselves, most of the other tribesmen are now very willing to participate in these things done by the guardian. Even children as young as five or six will spontaneously organize groups to help.
Even if these little guys can't do big things, they can help carry a few small pieces of iron ore to the head office, right?
Those older tribesmen, they can no longer do heavy physical work, but they cook for the tribesmen at home, right?
Those women can't build the blast furnace, can't go out to catch the bison, but they are ploughing the farmland at home, right?
And why would they do this? It's very simple, because they see a bright future in these things that Shixiong has done, and they are willing to contribute their own strength for a better future.
what is this? This is the concrete manifestation of cohesion.
Early this morning, all the tribesmen who had been busy for four days stopped their work. After breakfast, they all gathered in the open space in the middle of the village.
Now in that open space, besides the big coking pit and the stone house where the refractory bricks are fired, there is another big guy over five meters high, that is, the earth blast furnace built in the four days of assault.
The outer shell of this earthen blast furnace is built with rocks and mud, and the hearth is made of refractory bricks. There are scaffolds around the uppermost mouth of the earth blast furnace, which are used to pour materials, and there are four large wind boxes next to the blast furnace, which are used for blasting the blast furnace.
Outside the taphole of the blast furnace, there is a "Fangtang" built with refractory bricks. Around the Fangtang, there are many molds made of kaolin built on top of the pit.
Once the molten iron flows out from the tap hole, it will flow directly into the square pond, and then add crushed pig iron particles into it, stir constantly to fully decarburize the molten iron, and finally scoop it out with a stone spoon and pour it into the heated In the mold.
In fact, this earthen blast furnace was built yesterday afternoon. After Shixiong taught the tribes to use scaffolding, the speed of building the blast furnace increased a lot.
Then, last night, Shi Xiong let the tribe ignite the wood inside the blast furnace. The raging fire burned the whole blast furnace completely overnight.
Today is the day when Master Guardian prepares to make steel.
Lilei, Hongyun, Bigfoot, the high-ranking tribes all came, and even the wolf tail came. I don't know what Li Lei said to Wolf Tail, anyway, this guy has been very honest these days.
It doesn't matter to Shi Xiong, as long as this guy doesn't make trouble or drag his feet, Shi Xiong will not target him. However, if this guy is still ignorant and has to make trouble and drag his feet, then Shi Xiong would not mind fighting this guy again.
The situation is now very good, and Shi Xiong doesn't want a rat **** to ruin a pot of broth.
The powerful efficiency of the combination of Quyuan Plow + Taming Bison in plowing the land, as well as the steel made by the stone bear through the cauldron that day, plus his feat of hunting red deer and bison alone, is enough to make him in High prestige has been established in the Gaoshu tribe. Not to mention that he himself was already the guardian of the Kabul Sacrifice.
The tribesmen in the tribe are not fools. They can see that the Guardian is truly for the tribe and the tribe, so they have unknowingly regarded the Guardian as the core of the sacrifice after the leader and Kabru. And they are also willing to follow Master Guardian to do things!
Seeing that all the people from the Wuyangyan clan came, Shixiong was also a little smug at this moment, so he waved his hand and shouted loudly: "Install the stove!"
A group of people who had been prepared for a long time began to mix the weighed coke, small iron ore, and small limestone ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and then sent them to the scaffolding, and then used the hanging basket to mix these from the scaffolding. The material is put into the hearth of the blast furnace.
The materials put into the blast furnace when making iron are also very particular. They should not be placed randomly. Once the ratio is wrong, the ghost knows what kind of iron will be made.
In the iron smelting process of later generations, the ratio of iron ore, coke and limestone needed to smelt one ton of molten iron is about 16:5:3. In other words, to smelt one ton of qualified molten iron, about 1.6 tons of iron ore, 500 kg of coke and 300 kg of limestone are required.
Of course, this ratio is not static, it needs to be slightly changed according to the iron content of the iron ore.
Shixiong does not have the ability to test the iron content of iron ore, so he can only determine the ratio by estimation.
Anyway, it’s not just smelting this furnace of molten iron. If the molten iron produced this time is unqualified, then change the ratio next time. There are no quality supervision bureaus and no customer complaints these days, so let's just do it.
In order to be able to weigh more rigorously, Shixiong also let the old wood build a tool similar to a seesaw. The eldest son of the old wood saw the weight of about 120 kilograms. When the weight was over, let the cross saw sit on one end of the seesaw, and then put the separate iron ore into the large basket at the other end. Coke and limestone can finally get a more accurate figure.
Although it cannot be accurate to a few taels, an error of ten kilograms is acceptable.
When I have a chance to come up with a scale in the future, the weighing matter will be easy to talk about.
