Chapter 109 Kilns, Paper Curtains

Those eyes like black gems.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he looked in the direction of Mo Fan.

It was her habit that the first moment she opened her eyes was to see if her brother was around.

It was like the moment Mo Fan opened his eyes and went to see Su Zimo.

It’s just that the first moment she opened her eyes today, a pair of familiar eyes that could no longer be familiar actually stared at herself.

It’s just that when he noticed that he had found him.

The owner of those eyes quickly moved away.

Su Zimo yawned, and said with a lazy face: “Why are you staring at me?” Do I have flowers on my face? ”

Mo Fan rolled his eyes, then got up and said, “I went to brush my teeth.” ”

After that, I walked out of the bamboo house.

Su Zimo looked at Mo Fan who left, but the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but rise: “It’s still so thin-skinned, once I find out, I won’t say anything.” ”

However, she just likes Mo Fan’s character, and those bells and whistles are the ones she hates the most.

Of course, she didn’t know that she liked her brother’s personality, and thus liked such a personality. Or because of the personality, I like such a younger brother.

Under the morning sun, the chirping of birds is the most cheerful.

And the great white crawls in the grass, as if to hunt those birds and beasts that jump on the ground.

Su Zimo and Mo Fan squatted on the ground and cleaned their teeth with black charcoal.

Not far above the fire, palm cores are boiled in bamboo tubes.

In Su Zimo’s words, a fish was wasted yesterday, so don’t be so extravagant and wasteful in the morning, so just eat some vegetarian.

Yesterday it was octopus again, and it was lobster’s, and they really need a little carbohydrate today.

Breakfast time.

“Xiao Fan, are we making a kiln today?” Su Zimo couldn’t help but confirm again.

In her opinion, the firing of pottery, in addition to facilitating life, can also bring a full sense of sufficiency, which is a rare way to relax in the wilderness.

“You’ve been urging me for so many days, can you not do it?” Mo Fan quipped.

Su Zimo glanced at Mo Fan and hummed, “The kiln is not only for pottery, you don’t also want to burn tiles.” ”

“That’s right, and we need a clay pot to make paper next.” Mo Fan thought about it.

As for what Mo Fan said about papermaking, Su Zimo was not the first time to hear it, and she was curious: “Can we really make paper?” ”

“It’s not hard to make paper, it’s hard to make good paper.” Mo Fan smiled and said, “I already have a plan in my heart, but before that, we have to burn the pottery first.” ”

Su Zimo nodded excitedly.

Since Mo Fan said that it can be created, it is really able to create it, her brother, she believes it one hundred percent.

And after counting the days, her relatives should be coming soon.

If there was no paper, she couldn’t imagine such a day.

After breakfast.

Mo Fan and Su Zimo began to get busy.

In the wilderness, if you want to make a kiln, you can only rely on clay.

In reality, in the past, it was generally made of green bricks, and in modern times, some are special metal materials.

The earth is naturally inferior to green bricks and metal, but it can also keep the temperature of the flame in the wilderness from being dispersed.

Manufacture of kilns.

It’s a bit like a stovetop.

In fact, it is burning material at the bottom.

The difference is that the cooktop only needs a certain high temperature.

The furnace requires a true flame temperature.

The temperature difference between the two can be several hundred degrees.

Because there were no tools, Mo Fan could only make a simple kiln first.

The first thing the kiln does is the grate.

And what is a grate?

Simply put, it’s mud with holes.

The fired pottery is placed on top of the grate.

Flames emerge through holes in the grates to bake the pottery.

Therefore, the size of the grate also determines the size of Mofan’s kiln, which is a very key part.

“Sister, you help me get some water.”

Mofan took a shovel and loaded a large chunk of clay into the dry waterway and beat it with a log of wood.

As a presence dealing with flames, the grate cannot be easily burned, so full kneading will increase its density and is not easy to be burned.

Su Zimo slowly poured water into Mo Fan’s soil from the bamboo tube.

When Mo Fan gradually beat the soil to the delicate plasticine, Mo Fan placed it on top of the stone.

And stretch it into a circle with a diameter of about the length of an arm.

Then, start digging holes in it.

Su Zimo watched quietly on the side, and this kind of grate made her feel like she saw honeycomb briquettes.

When the grate is almost done.

Mo Fan finally stood up from the ground and stretched out.

The diameter of this grate is more than one meter, and after doing this big fellow, Mo Fan squatted on the ground for more than an hour.

Next, just wait for the grate to dry naturally.

Su Zimo on the side hurriedly brought a cup of fresh water over: “Come and drink some water to quench your thirst.” ”

Mo Fan wiped his sweat, took the bamboo tube, and then drank it all.

“What’s next?” Su Zimo pulled Mo Fan to a shady place to rest, and asked by the way.

“Next, it’s time to dig a pit, a round pit that’s a little smaller than the grate, and another feed pit.” Mo Fan pointed to the grate.

“Then dig a hole and I’ll come! You take a break. Su Zimo said seriously.

She doesn’t want to be a handyman pouring water on the sidelines.

“Don’t, just sister your little strength, when you finish digging, I don’t know when it will be, and you are not sure that the size of the digging is appropriate, otherwise if you dig the wrong dig and dig again, it will waste too much effort.” Mo Fan waved his hand.

“Then I can’t watch you do it, can I?” Su Zimo frowned.

Mo Fan smiled and said, “I have already thought of a job for you.” ”

“What kind of work?” Su Zimo suddenly became interested.

“Go find some withered palm leaves, tear them apart, and save them for me to make the walls of the hearth.”
