"Don't squeeze, let's pinch the pottery bowl first and try it with the small clay pot." Jiang Qing smiled softly, looked at everyone's excited faces, and said: "The shape can't be too out of line, the fire is too small and too big to fire, and after we master the method, we will build a pottery kiln." ”

"What is a pottery kiln?" Someone wondered.

"The pottery kiln is the place where the pottery is fired, digging out a cave that looks like a cellar, digging a few more fire channels, putting the dry mud embryo into it, and then sealing the surrounding area and lighting the firewood." Jiang Qing explained. Although she didn't have much in her heart, she knew that this method could be used to make charcoal.

Whether she can burn pottery, she doesn't know. However, I have seen the burning of bricks, and the burning of bricks does not need to be capped, thinking that the temperature of the pottery should be very high, and it is better to seal the vent.

"Why don't we find a dirt slope and dig a pottery kiln now?" Sha was eager to try, looking impatient.

The tribe has enough food for the time being, and there is no need to worry about starvation. Wild vegetables and mountain fruits have been picked a lot, so as not to waste them, they will not pick too much, only those children, full of fun to explore the peach source, picked up a lot of bird eggs, and even caught a lot of pheasants and ducks.

All of them were handed over to Qing, and Qing's hands and feet fell neatly not far from the clearing, and a small place was circled with green vines. Inside was empty pheasants and ducks they had caught, fearing that they would fly away, and the feathers on their wings had been sheared.

Pick out Jiang Qing and feed the wild vegetables that are not confirmed.

The pheasants and ducks, which were originally languishing and dying, quickly regained their vitality after a day of eating and drinking. Cluck, quack, scream!

The eggs with black spots were also put into it, and a few nests were picked up with thatch. The pheasants and ducks that laid eggs did not pick, but hugged their nests.

Jiang Qing hurriedly stopped it and said, "The pottery kiln is not in a hurry for the time being, this kneaded clay embryo, I think it's best to put it on hold overnight." You have to choose a good place to dig the pottery kiln, and maybe you will have to fire red bricks and blue bricks in the future......"

Obviously, Jiang Qing thinks more long-term. The tribe has a lot to be busy with, so let's get busy first. The pottery kiln should be dug to see the right place, first of all, the place should not be too narrow, and it must be close to the clay.

Otherwise, in the future, you will have to find someone to dig up the soil and transport the soil, which is too wasteful of manpower.

"Indeed, this pottery kiln can't be dug indiscriminately, and if you want to burn pottery in the future, you can't dig mud everywhere." Counting his head, he recognized Jiang Qing's words.

Learning from Jiang Qing, he quickly pinched out a smooth mud embryo.

Jiang Qing compared, and suddenly was aggrieved, this goods had to be thrown away. Qing's pinched clay embryo is obviously much higher grade than hers, and she immediately puffed out her little face, and she couldn't see it.

"Aunt Qing, your skills are much better than mine, will you take care of the pottery in the future?" Jiang Qing blinked and said cutely.

"It's so clever to clear your hands, and it's so nice to pinch." Sha turned around, looked at the kneaded mud embryo, looked up and down, left and right, and immediately agreed with Jiang Qing's words.

Sha is worse than Jiang Qing, and the mud embryo pinched is thin and uneven, so I am afraid that there is no need to wait for firing, and the cracks will be cracked when it is dried. After trying a few times, I couldn't pinch it well, so I had to give up.

Lan is holding a small clay pot, which looks passable, but it is not as smooth and beautiful as the clear pinching.

"It's really good!" Blue nodded in agreement.

Jiang Qing simply stood up, looked around, picked out all the people who were good at pinching, and said, "Aunt Qing, they are all pinched well, wait for the pottery kiln to dig out and know the real method of firing pottery." You will take some people to burn pottery, and the tribe will have more and more things in the future, and it is necessary to divide labor and cooperate! ”

After listening to it, Qing didn't postpone it, and wrote down all the people Jiang Qing picked out.

"Jiang Qing, what can we do to help?" Sha asked.

Jiang Qing's face sank, and she said seriously: "Aunt Sha, don't worry, someone in the tribe has to make clothes and shoes, someone has to collect and pick wild vegetables and mountain fruits, and someone has to take care of pheasants and ducks, there are many things." ”

Hearing Jiang Qing's words, the people who couldn't help with the pottery burning suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Qing owed her waist, and looked at Aunt Qing's hands and feet neatly pinching the mud embryos, and after a while, nearly a hundred mud embryos were spread on the stones in front of the discussion house. They are all small pieces of pottery, all of which vary in size.

Counting, there were already eighty-nine.

Considering the number of fires in the open space, he said loudly: "Aunt Qing, these mud embryos are almost there. Hang it out tonight, and set up a few fires tomorrow to try it. If it succeeds, find a place to dig a pottery kiln. You can't always pin your hopes on finding clay, the gains outweigh the losses. ”

The clay is sticky, and the fired pottery is more delicate. It's hard to say that there is not much iron in this ordinary soil. They can't make delicate pottery, but they ask for convenience, and if ordinary clay can be fired, they don't have to look far away.

"Okay." Qing put down the mud embryo he had pinched in his hand and prepared to go to the river to wash his hands.

Looking at the mud embryos spread out on the stones, I feel a sense of accomplishment. Even the untanned hides feel less tiring. Thinking that she could live in a spacious and bright house, she probably didn't have to tann so many hides this year, and she had accumulated a lot of hides for sewing clothes.

She and Wolf Lie's animal skins are enough to wear, and Wolf Ink doesn't need to prepare, the only ones to sew are Jiang Qing and Wolf Rui's, thinking about the tanned animal skins, they should find time to sew them out.

It's time for Wolf Rui to transform these days, and the animal skin on Jiang Qing's body doesn't fit......

There is also cured meat, which has not yet been taken out to dry, and there are many things that need to be busy with this thought.

However, looking at the grand council room, the tired body was suddenly full of strength.

Looking at Jiang Qing who was chopping wild vegetables with a bone knife, with her, the tribe would get better and better.

In reverie, suddenly there was a loud beast roar in the distance.

There was a flash of joy on his face, the clansmen who had gone out hunting had returned, and he didn't know what good news he would bring back? Perhaps, tonight, I can eat fresh barbecue and drink the wild vegetable soup with boiled bones.

Looking at the fat big fish swimming slowly in the river, Qing couldn't help but be greedy, why don't you let Jiang Qing fry some fish pieces tonight?

"Roar—"

The familiar roar of the beast made the busy people of the tribe look in the direction of their return. There was a faint smell of blood in the wind, and everyone had smiles on their faces.

"Wolf Bo, they're back!" Jiang Qing was overjoyed and took a step to meet him.

Cao and Luo Shan followed, and the two found Wolf Mo and circled the land near Jiang Qing's house that Jiang Qing planned to build. Wolf Mo was in a very good mood at the moment, and he readily agreed.

After Jiang Qing promised that the tribe would settle down, he would marry him, and he would strive to build all the houses in the shortest possible time. After getting married, no one dared to covet Jiang Qing, so that he could settle down a little.

Hearing the roar of the wolf, Wolf Mo did not let everyone stop, but urged to speed up the action. Everyone was not angry, they were all looking forward to the marriage ceremony between the patriarch and Jiang Qing.
