Crossing the famine: The hunter's wife has good farmland

"We have used a lump iron smelting method to smelt iron before, that is, in a furnace, a layer of iron ore and a layer of charcoal are smelted. However, the iron smelted in this way has a disadvantage, that is, the surface of the iron smelted is mixed with slag and is very rough.

This iron is not tough enough and is not a good material for making weapons.

I also know of a method called blast furnace ironmaking, but the requirements for the furnace are too high. The ironmaking furnace is shaped like a tall tower, and it also requires a special bag for blasting. I don't have the confidence that I can build a blast furnace and that thing."

"Blast furnace... blast pockets..."

Fu Cang thought about it, then reached out and patted Pa Canglu's shoulder.

"Leave these things to me. Your contribution to the tribe is really huge. I will reward you well, and I will also make proper arrangements for your tribe members so that they will be treated well!"

Cang Lu had done so many things just waiting for Fu Cang to say this. Now that he finally heard him say it, Cang Lu showed a satisfied expression.

"Chief Fucang, I will serve the tribe at my utmost!"

Fu Cang asked Canglu and the others to have a good rest, and he returned home excitedly.

Mo Xiaonian was still eating melon seeds at home.

The Spring Festival is only three days away. She has already prepared a lot of New Year's goods and boiled a lot of melon seeds in salt water. They have been dried on the kang. They taste salty and are less likely to cause mouth sores. Mo Xiaonian couldn't stop eating handfuls of them.

She felt that the melon seeds made in this way tasted better than the spiced melon seeds she bought from the mall with her points.

Fu Cang looked at Mo Xiaonian whose lips were chapped from cracking melon seeds, and reluctantly snatched the melon seeds from her hand.

"How much have you eaten? Look at your lips, they're all chapped!"

Mo Xiaonian grumbled in dissatisfaction, clapped her hands, and picked up the melon seed shells.

"Alright, alright, I won't talk anymore. Aren't you meeting with Scythe, Heron and the others? Why are you coming back home?"

"I have something to talk to you about. Have you ever heard of a blast furnace for making iron?"

"blast furnace?"

Mo Xiaonian had no knowledge of iron smelting, let alone heard of a blast furnace.

"Is it the special furnace you need to make iron?"

"Yes, Cang Lu said that pig iron can be made using a blast furnace. Pig iron is suitable for making weapons and armor, but the requirements for the ironmaking furnace are relatively high, and he has no confidence that he can build one."

"So you remembered me, didn't you?"

Mo Xiaonian felt particularly satisfied that Fu Cang had this awareness now, and patted Fu Cang's shoulder with a smile.

"No problem. I will definitely find the blueprints of the blast furnace for you."

"There is also a big bag for blowing air. Without it, the temperature inside the furnace cannot be reached. Heron said that would lead to failure in iron smelting."

"Okay, I get it. Go ahead and do your work. Leave these two things to me."

"Okay, I'll go back first. I still have a lot of things to deal with. Promise me that you won't eat melon seeds at home anymore. Your mouth is cracked!"

"Oh, you're so annoying. I won't eat it anymore. I promise!"

Fu Cang left helplessly. Mo Xiaonian closed the door and then plunged into the space.

Although she doesn't know how to do it, her mall contains mankind's best companions, books!

Mo Xiaonian searched in the vast sea of books for a long time, and even took a nap here during that time. Finally, he found the introduction and drawings of the blast furnace.

"It's really amazing! If there were no ready-made blueprints, I would have to take a lot of detours just by building it blindly."

While talking to himself, Mo Xiaonian took out a pen and paper and restored the blast furnace drawing on paper one by one.

While drawing, Mo Xiaonian looked around furtively. She was really afraid that the system would pop up and talk to her.

She feels guilty!

After drawing the blueprint, Mo Xiaonian found Feng Tuo's blueprint. After drawing them all, he hurriedly escaped from the space.

Although the Spring Festival is just around the corner, the Yueluo tribe is busy as hell.

After Fu Cang and Yuelu Mo Xiaonian discussed it, they decided to build a blast furnace inside the tribe, and all the iron ore dug out from the mountains would be brought back to the tribe for smelting.

Refining iron is a very important matter and one must be careful at all times. It is safer to build it in one's own tribe.

The bricks and stones needed to build a blast furnace must also be resistant to high temperatures. I didn't know where to buy them, and transporting such heavy bricks and stones back and forth was also a problem. So Mo Xiaonian gritted his teeth and stomped his feet and simply bought a large batch of high-temperature resistant bricks and stones from his own space mall.

These high-temperature resistant bricks and stones cost her a full 35,000 points, and Mo Xiaonian felt like her heart was bleeding.

And those systems all became overjoyed. Not only did they take the initiative to talk to Mo Xiaonian, but even the electronic sounds could be heard to have a hint of ease and joy.

Mo Xiaonian said to the system while feeling pain in her flesh.

"I said, you guys are not making commissions, right?"

'Dear host, how could you have such an idea?'

"I spent so much of my savings, and you are obviously happy. Listen to your tone, there is a smile in your voice! I said that I was drawing the blueprint of the blast furnace there before, but none of you came out to make a fuss. It seems that you are waiting for me here!

These heat-resistant bricks and stones are much more expensive than that book!"

The system laughed out loud accidentally.

'Hehe... Oh, sorry host. I just felt a little uncomfortable in my throat. Dear host, you bought so many high-temperature resistant bricks and stones. The space mall can give you some high-temperature resistant cement. You can take it away together with the bricks and stones.

Just host, I need to remind you here that these things do not belong to this era. You must be careful when using them. The most important thing is not to let things that do not belong to this era fall into the hands of ambitious people.

That will only bring great disaster to this era! '

Mo Xiaonian nodded solemnly: “I understand the system, thank you for your reminder, I will be careful!”

Transporting these bricks and stones was a difficult task because the quantities were so huge.

Mo Xiaonian didn't trust others, so she could only discuss things with Fu Cang secretly at night.

“When are you going to use those heat-resistant masonry?”

"The sooner the better. I plan to send people over to mine iron ore as soon as the Spring Festival is over. We also need to build a blast furnace in our tribe.

This matter must be dealt with before the spring plowing, so as not to delay next year's farming.

Did you find a place that sells that kind of bricks?"

"We've found it. We can bring it back before the New Year. Prepare a few carriages tomorrow and go find me in the woods on the left side of the village entrance. I'll have the deliveryman deliver the bricks and stones there, and you can take the people over to pick them up."
