There is iron ore on the island, Xiang Ze has seen it more than once, in fact, there are many mountains and rocks on the island, and the mineral deposits are rich, as long as you are patient to find it, you are afraid that gold and silver mines can be found......

However, at that time, he didn't think about ironmaking, mainly because the conditions didn't allow it, and he didn't think it was necessary, but now he can consider putting it on the agenda.

The first time to live in such a comfortable and spacious new house, everyone is a little excited, this dinner is not dispersed until the middle of the night, and there is no need to go their separate ways, walk two steps back to the room?

Before going to sleep, Ruan Xiaomeng suddenly screamed at the top of her throat, startling everyone, including Li Xuanqiu, who had been invisible...... If nothing else, the girl is happy!

Early the next morning, Xiang Ze took Ruan Xiaomeng Xiaoai to collect some hay and fallen leaves in the woods, and after fully burning, they got grass and wood ashes.

He picked several kinds of skin care and beauty herbs and flowers with a clear fragrance, all of which were crushed and mixed with plant ash, boiled out the mutton fat and put it in quantity, added plant ash and some lime to decompose, and the green solids that came out in the end were soap, cut into the shape of small squares, which looked similar to the soap we commonly used, and the fragrance was tangy.

In fact, this soap looks a bit rough, but it actually works much better than what you buy in the supermarket. Don't forget that Xiang Ze is a miracle doctor, and skin care and beauty are also within the scope of medical skills, it may be a bit exaggerated to say that the face will last forever, but if you use it all the time, the whitening effect is definitely a bargain.

Ruan Xiaomeng was really surprised and delighted after trying it, grabbed a person and let him smell himself, and asked you girl, am I fragrant? I took Xiaolong and Da Ben around the neighborhood again, this time focusing on looking for all kinds of ores, not only found pyrite, but also found some natural graphite, and at the foot of a mountain, even found some scattered coal!

This is a natural open-pit coal mine, originally the coal blocks were hidden deep underground, but presumably there are frequent earthquakes on the island, so the coal blocks were overturned. Coal is actually a kind of sedimentary rock, which is formed after a long time under the action of high temperature and pressure by trees and other plants, otherwise why is it called coal?

At the end of the day, it's wood. The island is rich in vegetation, and it would be strange to say that there is no coal.

In addition, some silver ore, aluminum ore, and silver are also considered to be precious metals, and the texture is much softer than iron, so it is definitely not good to make pots, but it can be used to make some utensils, such as silver bowls and silver plates...... Isn't it classy?

Aluminum can also be used for many purposes, it can also be used to make pots and pans, aluminum powder can be used as paint, such as when firing porcelain, it can be used to plate the surface, and if you make steel, you also need it to deoxidize, anyway, it is useful, so I simply shipped some back. Graphite and clay were mixed together to make refractory bricks and crucibles, so that Xiang Ze could build a furnace for smelting metal.

The entire furnace is made of refractory materials, which is not as good as modern steelmaking furnaces, but not much worse. Everyone worked together, the furnace was quickly built, the iron ore was smashed, some lime and coke were added, and all the brains were poured into it, and the high temperature of the coke burning could directly melt the iron ore, and then decompose into gas from the big chimney above.

When the temperature reaches more than 1,000 degrees, the iron in the iron ore will completely melt, and all that flows out is molten iron.

Reheated and abled, poured into a mold made of clay graphite, the most primitive iron tools were made, and naturally there was a large iron pot that the fat man dreamed of......

The big guys are very excited, and Hong Haibo is especially happy.

With pig iron, he can make wrought iron, with pig iron and wrought iron, he can make steel, and with steel, he can make cannons and muskets!

Xiang Ze is not a god, he can't think about everything so thoughtfully, if it weren't for Ruan Xiaomeng wanting soap and the fat man wanting an iron pot, he wouldn't be able to think of it for a while. In fact, he is not to blame, because these things are actually not that important to him.

Without these, he can survive very well, and he only needs to stay on the island for a year, and there is no need to make it so complicated.

In the final analysis, it's because of the big guy, if it's just him, he won't bother to make these useless things. As long as there is food and shelter, a quiet immortal cultivation alone will be ......

The fans in the live broadcast room were also extremely excited, after all, they couldn't even think of such a thing as ironmaking, and the boss Xiang Ze really did it, and he did it!

"The boss will make soap, I really didn't expect him to make iron!"

"Ironmaking, I think the boss is going to make steel next!"

"Boss, they're going straight from the agricultural age to the industrial age!

"It's a pity that it's only a year, otherwise I really don't know what they can develop?"

"Have you noticed? Now the boss is copying the course of our human history. ”

"Yes, seeing my blood boiling, don't you want to form a group to go to the boss? Why is there no movement......

"Do you think there's anything else the boss can't do?"

"Of course he has, he won't pick up girls!"

"Uh......"

"It's heart-piercing, old iron. ”

Whenever the question of the boss is mentioned, everyone will be silent for a while, because the sexual orientation of the boss has always been a mystery......

Streamer room.

"Wow, Xiang Ze, this is the industrial revolution!" Xi Xi, as Xiang Ze's little fan, is naturally happy for him.

"It's really remarkable, what Xiang Ze and they are doing now is not as simple as surviving, but creating history. Brother Bo also expressed his amazement.

"He's a super dick! I think if he is given a few more years, he can build a car!" Dong Zhou was already impressed by Xiang Ze.

"Hehe, this is really uncertain. He's very powerful, and so are the people under him, they have a high IQ, a lot of knowledge, and a lot of hands-on ability, and most importantly, they're all very imaginative!"

No matter what Xiang Ze does now, Bei Ye doesn't feel strange, who still remembers that he was still a scarred weak young man when he first came to the island?

"I feel like even if I go, I can survive with him, and I can survive quite nourishingly, you see they can all take a hot bath......" Luo Weier suddenly became a little fascinated.

"Hey, brother director, Luo Weier, do you want to think about this suggestion for your program team? Why don't you send a few people to the island to broadcast live? I ask to go to the Burrow!"

Xi Xi was inspired and suddenly whimsical, but don't you say that this suggestion is really interesting...... This is what Bei Ye said about imagination.

"Look at him rising a tall building, watching him feast guests, watching his building collapse......" Suddenly a discordant voice sounded slowly, from Kun Kun.

The last time he was naked in the live broadcast room, he was very embarrassed, and after going to the hospital for an examination, the doctor said that he had no problem at all. If there is a certain number, it may be a little bit of paranoia, and this diagnosis can be said to be very pertinent.

Of course, the official announcement was that Kun Kun suddenly felt unwell that day and had a high fever, so he had that strange behavior, and please be tolerant and understanding, don't use false rumors, and don't launch personal attacks on our host.

In fact, no one attacked Kun Kun, everyone just watched his jokes......
