The axes and saws were soon brought along with the wood, and a group of people came up to watch, and Ding Qi directly drove them back to rest and wait for the tools to be sent back.

The people around dispersed, and Ding Qi, who had quiet ears, took out the mud he had practiced this morning from the shed, put it on a piece of flat wood, and pinched it into long strips, about fifty centimeters long, ten centimeters high, and five centimeters thick before and after.

The mud is moderately soft and hard, placed horizontally on a wooden plank, and then the saw blade is taken. Since the saw has a grip, it can only be aligned at the right end, and then press the tooth end of the saw blade down vertically from the top end of the mud bar until the top of the saw blade is flush with the top end of the mud bar.

Cut off a strip of mud on the left so that the distance between the left end of the strip and the left end of the saw blade is about five centimeters. Then gently insert a strip of bamboo, six centimeters long and one centimeter wide, as thick as a saw blade, at this end. The main purpose of this bamboo strip is to form an indentation that connects to one end of the saw blade, and when the metal liquid is poured in, it forms the grip of the saw blade.

Adjust the mud strip slightly, let it stand for about ten minutes, gently pull out the bamboo strip, and then slowly pull out the saw blade upward, and a saw blade mold will come out. Immediately after Ding Qi drew the gourd in the same way, he made a saw blade mold and placed it aside.

As for the model of the axe, it is even simpler, directly use two pieces of mud larger than the axe to press it from both sides, compact and press, and then shape it into a boxy shape. Since both sides of the axe are plastered with a layer of dry soil, there is no need to worry about not being able to pull it out. After standing for 10 minutes, move the axe slightly, then gently pull it out, and then put a strip of mud about the thickness of the axe handle into the position of the axe, and the mold of the axe is made.

In order to prevent the situation that there is less mold and more copper juice at that time, Ding Qi felt that it would not be a waste to make two more axe molds, so he made two more axe molds.

At this time, copper juice has appeared in the clay pot under the ash kiln, covering the bottom of the pot. Since the clay pot is baked at high temperature in advance, there is no need to worry about the heat * expansion and contraction, and the clay pot is fried. In the pottery bowl above the ash kiln, most of the tin has been melted.

Ding Qi took out a shallow wide-mouthed clay pot and placed it on top of the ash kiln, and slowly heated it together with the pottery bowl.

The red deer was so tired and sweating profusely that he couldn't lift his arms. Ding Qi took his place and continued to blow the air with a hair dryer, the temperature in the kiln rose sharply, and it seemed that more copper juice had fallen.

Half an hour later, more and more copper juice was in the pot, and the tin in the clay bowl above the ash kiln was melted. Ding Qi took two thick animal skins and put them on his hands, first put the wide-mouthed clay pot on a stone slab on the ground, and then put the clay bowl with tin up, the high temperature instantly passed through, so that both hands felt unable to support it, this is close to 300 degrees of high temperature, the slightest carelessness may burn the hand, then Ding Qi can be wasted.

Tinch was about to begin mixing copper and tin in proportion, using the pottery bowl as a measuring tool. Quickly lift the bowl over the wide-mouthed clay pot and pour the tin juice into it.

Then the bowl was placed on another stone slab, ready to pour copper juice into it. Because the temperature of the copper juice was too high, Ding Qi had no choice but to wrap his hands in seven or eight layers of animal skins, and asked the red deer to help move the clay pot out, the smell of heavy protein burning went straight to his nostrils, and the heat wave rolled in, feeling that these seven or eight layers of animal skins could not stop the high temperature of the clay pot.

Ding Qi endured it and quickly poured five bowls of copper juice into the clay pot. Shaking off his hand, he picked up the steel spear on one side and stirred it in a wide-mouthed clay pot until it was well mixed.

Unable to stop, Ding Qi took the axe mold over, endured the pain and poured three axe molds in a row, and continued to fill the two saw blade molds. There is still a leftover, Ding Qi is in a hurry at this time, and he doesn't know how to deal with it.

His eyes swept over the ground, and he saw the fine soil that the deer had sifted out, and quickly flattened it with a short-handled shovel, and then he stuck the axe into the soil, pulled it out, and stuffed it into a strip of mud, three in a row. Continue pouring bronze juice into it until it is all poured out, and it is two and a half complete, and the last one is still half a half, but it seems that it can make a narrow axe.

After all the molds were poured, Ding Qi screamed, rushed to the stream, regardless of his posture, knelt there directly, stretched his red and swollen hands into the stream, and used the cold stream water to relieve the pain of his hands.

"It seems necessary to make something like a crucible clamp, and it has to be burn-resistant, so you don't have to worry about your hands getting burned."

Ding Qi thought about this problem while icing, his hands tingled, like countless steel needles pierced on it, but considering the two saw blades and five and a half axes that were about to be formed, he felt that the little bitterness he had just suffered was nothing.

The deer next to him heard Ding Qi shouting, and rushed over worriedly, seeing that Ding Qi was nothing serious, he could put his heart down.

"Tinch, do you need my help?"

Ding Qi hissed: "It's okay, it's just a little painful, you go there and keep it, don't let others touch the thing I just made, it's very hot, don't move either." ”

Deer said yes and turned back, she was going to see what Ding Qi had made, and why it was so hot and so important.

It wasn't until his legs were numb and his hands were so cold that he was unconscious, that Ding Qi slowly moved his body, lay down on the ground, rested for a while, and waited for the numbness on his legs to pass before he got up and returned to the bottom of the wooden shed.

The five molds, which were still a little wet, had dried out under the high temperature, and even cracked some cracks on them. The fine soil didn't change much, just kept emitting a trace of heat and rising into the sky.

Pick up a bamboo tube and pour water over a few bronzes that are about to take shape.

Whoop

An even thicker mist rose, obscuring Tinki's view. The people who were working around him were also very curious and wanted to know what Ding Qi was doing, but Ding Qi said that he would not let anyone else disturb him, so they did not dare to come again. But the red deer on the side has gone through the whole process, and has a little understanding of how Ding Qi made those axes and saws.

After pouring water two more times, the temperature of the bronze in the mold dropped. Ding Qi washed them with water, picked up an axe and shook it in his hand, it was quite heavy, and the unique color of the bronze was also presented in front of Ding Qi's eyes.

This axe is smooth and made from an axe mold, unlike an axe in a fine clay mold, which is covered with tiny pits. However, the blade of the axe looks a little thicker, and when you turn back and polish it with stones such as sand and gravel, and with the handle of the axe, the efficiency of cutting trees will be greatly increased.

As for the saw blade, it also looks very good, just take care of it with the file of the multi-purpose saber, and use it with the right wood as a grip.

While Ding Qi was holding the bronze axe that had just been made, forty or fifty people had gathered at the location of the original deer tribe, and they were talking loudly around the two deer on the bonfire in the center of the field.

These people were obviously divided into three groups, and if Ding Qi was present, he would definitely be able to recognize three of them, one was Yan of the Graystone Tribe, one was the Wild Bull of the Red Bull Tribe, and the other person he knew was the Falcon of the Blue Bird Tribe.

And the gathering of these three tribes was agreed upon by the three of them when they returned to their respective tribes. At this moment, the leaders of the three tribes were chatting about what goods they had brought with them, and how many novelties they were going to exchange for the kind of novelty called bowls and baskets.

It turned out that the bowl used by Ding Qi to treat the red deer and the back basket on Ben's back were very useful to the people of the three tribes, and Iwa and they also reported that Ding Qi was Aragami when they went back to report to the tribal leader and the witch. Therefore, the tribes decided to meet at the Deer Tribe on time as agreed by the three of them. It's just that in terms of numbers, there seem to be more people from the Graystone Tribe, and there are some thin people among them, sitting alone on the side.

The leaders were very interested in the bowl and the back basket, and they were even more interested in Ding Qi, and asked questions to the three of them from time to time to corroborate each other and understand Ding Qi.

In the Qing tribe, the newly appointed tribal doctor is also taking advantage of the period before dark to perform divination. He is the apprentice of the old doctor and witch, and he has been learning from it. However, he was very frightened when he was divining, he couldn't contact his father when divining, and he couldn't get a response from his father.

He didn't dare to tell the truth, so he had to tell the leader that everything was normal, bad luck, and that he still needed to save up food for the arrival of winter. The leader had no choice but to arrange tomorrow's gathering and hunting work in advance, and the direction of gathering turned out to be pointing to the Qing tribe. They had to expand their gathering and hunting range, or they would return empty-handed.

There are many tribes around here, and the range of gathering and hunting sometimes overlaps, and fights are inevitable. For the Qing tribe, there is no need to worry too much, if the food is not enough, you can capture other tribe members as a supplement.

Ding tribe, after checking the progress of each team, Ding Qi decided to merge the hunting team and the five captives, and the red deer returned, forming a team of ten people to hunt, gather and pull adobe in unity; Ben took the three wounded captives to burn charcoal and lime, the deer continued to burn pottery with flowers and grass, and Peach took Worm and Butterfly and two children to clean up the furs and everything in the yard.

Looking at the only 22 people in front of him, Ding Qi sighed in his heart, there is still a lack of people! If you want to develop rapidly, there is still a shortage of manpower.

After dinner, everyone sat together to rub ropes and weave nets, while Tinchi sat outside the earthen house with six male members, including foxes, and six other male members, including the fox. And Ding Qi himself had just handled the two saw blades with a multifunctional saber and pliers, one sharpening the other with one sawtooth.

If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools! Ding Qi just plans to take advantage of the evening to get the axe and saw in order, so that he can use it with confidence tomorrow, and then he can try the sharpness, especially compared to their masters, which is more powerful.

In the courtyard over there, the weaving of fishing nets was presided over by the deer, which was taught to her by Ding Qi, and she was thirsty for new knowledge, and she deeply liked this activity, and felt that she was playing, including pottery.

Late at night, Ding Qi lay in bed, thinking about how he could get more bronzes. Tin ore is found here, but copper ore is only found in the Qing tribe. But the other party is a relatively large tribe, and with such a few people, I can't handle them, even if I can do it, it will be a problem in terms of care, and I have to have my own people, people who can follow them.

Thinking of this, Tinch's left eye jumped sharply.

Well? Left eye jumps wealth!

Ding Qi, who was about to fall asleep, woke up instantly, which seemed to indicate that something good was happening! Tinky tossed and turned, thinking about where the changes would be, food? Tool? Ore? Or is it the population that is currently in short supply?

Ding Qi thinks a lot, but he wants to have insomnia!
