Chapter 54: Success! (Recommend!Collect!)
Following
Early in the morning, when Lin Luo came out of Wu's residence after feeding the overlord cubs, he ran into the warriors sent by the chief to urge him to go to the kiln.
Apparently, the chief still had a crush on charcoal.
And when Lin Luo came to the hill where the trees were cut down again, he was suddenly frightened by the battle in front of him.
Compared to yesterday, the number of people here today was twice as large, and in addition to the soldiers who cut down trees, Lin Luo also saw many women and children.
After inquiring about Lin Luo, he learned that the chief was going to confirm for a while, and after the charcoal was really as good as he said, he immediately began to burn charcoal on a large scale.
The job does not require much physical strength, and both women and children are perfectly competent, which is why there are so many women and children here.
And the chief's preparation in advance was obviously out of trust in Lin Luo.
After all, what Lin Luo tossed out all the time has never disappointed him.
However, this caused a lot of pressure on Lin Luo.
He has absolute confidence in charcoal, and it must be far superior to firewood in every way.
But he is not 100% sure whether the charcoal can be fired successfully this time.
After all, this was his first time burning charcoal, and even though the method was extremely simple, he had seen the video before.
However, there will still be a little bit of weakness in the heart.
"Lin Luo, come here, open it and let me see the charcoal. ”
When the chief found out about Lin Luo, he immediately shouted to him.
"Good. ”
Hearing this, Lin Luo could only nod and walk over.
He could only confirm one thing in his heart now, if the chief had made such a big battle, if he found that the charcoal had not been successfully fired.
Counting together with yesterday's new accounts and old accounts, he must have not run away by beating him to vent his anger.
Walking to the place where the charcoal was burned, Lin Luo saw that the charcoal kiln was still the same as when he left yesterday.
Although everyone came earlier than him, and they were full of curiosity about the charcoal, no one dared to move the charcoal kiln rashly because they were afraid that it would damage the charcoal inside.
Seeing that the charcoal kiln was intact and there was no cracking around, Lin Luo suddenly felt a little relieved.
The most feared thing about burning charcoal in this primitive way is that it is not tightly sealed, and if there is a gap that enters the oxygen, the firewood inside will definitely be burned to ashes.
With excitement and some apprehension, Lin Luo reached out and took down the mud that sealed the entrance to the cave at the top.
After a night of cooling, the temperature inside had dropped, but it was so dark that I couldn't see the specific situation.
Therefore, after Lin Luo just glanced at it, he directly reached out and began to pick up the mud that had been dry and hard around him.
Seeing Lin Luo's movements, everyone around them also stretched out their heads curiously, their eyes widened.
"Poof!"
As the mud continued to fall, most of this simple charcoal kiln was soon opened by Lin Luo.
It can be seen that the upper part of the charcoal kiln has become empty, and the original firewood can no longer be seen.
And in the lower part of the bottom, it is a black color.
Success?
Looking at the black thing at the bottom of the charcoal kiln, Lin Luo's face suddenly showed joy.
Because, it's all charcoal!
Lin Luo couldn't wait to reach out and take out a piece from it, holding both ends with both hands and pulling it gently.
"Gaba!"
Suddenly, with a crisp sound, the charcoal was easily wrenched in half.
Looking at the fractured surfaces on both sides of the charcoal in his hand, all of which were completely charred black, Lin Luo finally grinned.
It really worked!
"This black whirring thing is what you call charcoal?"
The chief walked up to Lin Luo's side, looked at the charcoal in his hand, and asked with a suspicious face.
Obviously, the chief was very skeptical at the moment that this black-looking thing could really burn.
"Yes, that's charcoal. ”
Hearing this, Lin Luo nodded with a smile and handed the charcoal in his hand to the chief.
"It's so light!"
After receiving the charcoal handed by Lin Luo, the chieftain immediately showed a shocked expression on his face.
The weight of this charcoal was also completely light, which was completely beyond his expectations.
"Didn't I tell you before, charcoal is much lighter than firewood!"
Lin Luo replied with a smile at the chief.
At this time, other people around also gathered around.
"Is this charcoal?"
"It's so light!"
"This thing is so black, can it really burn like wood?"
......
Listening to this gossip of inquiry, Lin Luo said directly to the chief, "Chief, you can make a fire now and test the effect of charcoal." ”
"Okay, start a fire right away. ”
Hearing this, the chief immediately nodded and gave the order.
It didn't take long for one of the warriors to raise the fire.
"Wow! Wow......"
With a sound like waves washing over coral stones, Lin Luo kept pulling out the charcoal from the charcoal kiln.
The sound is crisp and shiny, which is the characteristic of better quality charcoal.
The first time he burned charcoal, he had such a good quality, and Lin Luo's heart was still a little proud.
Then he poured all the charcoal he had taken out and poured it on the fire that had just been raised.
"It's burning! The charcoal is really burning. ”
A short time after the charcoal was thrown into the fire, a sharp-eyed warrior shouted.
Burning so soon?
Hearing the warrior's shout, the chief couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Although Lin Luo had introduced to him before, saying that charcoal is easier to ignite than firewood, how long has it been?
"It's really burning!"
"I didn't expect this black charcoal to really burn!"
......
While the chief was stunned, all kinds of exclamations had already sounded around him.
However, this was only the beginning, as the first piece of charcoal was ignited, and with the help of the breeze, the fiery red color began to spread rapidly to "devour" the original black.
It didn't take long for all the charcoal to be ignited and turn into a fiery red.
Seeing this, the people around were even more amazed.
I don't know how many times faster this is than firewood!
But at this moment, the chief did not care about the speed of the charcoal's ignition, but fixed his eyes on the top of the fire.
There really is no smoke!
The chief thought to himself excitedly.
At this moment, above the fire, there was only a faint white smoke.
It's not like when you burn dry wood, there is a choking smoke.
Firewood hoarded for the arrival of the dead season must be dried in the sun, a lesson that the tribe has learned for a long time.
Because they found that when they dried firewood into dry firewood, it produced much less smoke when burned.
In this way, in a poorly ventilated cave, there will be no feeling of suffocation.
But at this moment, the charcoal in front of him is obviously much better than dry firewood at this point.
In the curiosity and surprise of everyone, half an hour passed in a blink of an eye.
In the fire in front of him, the charcoal was still a fiery red color.
