Chapter 284: Tiles
"Lao Liu, what do you say is there to shelter from the rain!" Ye Feng said to Liu Junting, not noticing that Liu Junting had another bowl of food. **Fast Update**
Liu Junting was gulping and eating, and it was difficult to think about it quickly, so while eating, he said vaguely: "Hmm...... Just make a bowl the size of a roof...... Well...... Isn't it okay to build on top of the house. ”
Uh, well, don't expect him to come up with a good idea.
Of course, Ye Feng didn't think that he could make a constructive opinion, he just said this casually.
Hearing him say the answer, Ye Feng immediately laughed, a bowl like that, not to mention whether it can not be broken when firing, whether there is such a big kiln is another matter.
He was about to open his mouth to taunt Liu Junting, but suddenly he had a flash of inspiration and thought of something.
That's right, the bowl is made of pottery, and the pottery that can cover the rain is not just tiles?
Ye Feng was immediately pleasantly surprised, slapped it on his thigh, and laughed: "Hahaha, there is a way, there is finally a way, it is really a nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get there!" ”
After he finished roaring, he turned his head again and said to Liu Junting: "Old Liu, thanks to you this time, if the matter is done, I will count your first credit!" ”
Liu Junting finally finished the bowl of food, and after hearing Ye Feng's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then didn't take it to heart.
It wasn't once or twice that Ye Feng was so excited, he was already surprised.
Liu Junting casually wiped the oil stain on his lips and said, "Ye Feng, I just remembered that there are still things that have not been done over there in the wooden room, so I will leave first!" ”
Ye Feng's matter was resolved this time, and he was in a very happy mood, so he nodded with a smile when he heard the words, and said, "Okay, you go quickly, pay attention to safety!" ”
Seeing Liu Junting go away, Ye Feng felt that his stomach was rebelling, and then he remembered that he forgot to eat because he was thinking about these problems.
He found his bowl and went to the side of the pot, so the wooden lid looked at it......
"What kind of guy who lacks morality, there is nothing left, and the shovel is so clean!"
Ye Feng wanted to cry without tears, and the good mood just now disappeared in an instant.
In the end, he still couldn't find the murderer who ate his food, so he had to silently chew the salty, dry and hard jerky.
After solving the food problem, Ye Feng hurriedly began to think about how to make tiles.
Tiles are an important waterproofing material for roofs, which can keep rain and snow out.
It is a kind of pottery, so it is generally made of clay, but it is also made of other materials such as cement, and of course, in this primitive society, such tiles are not possible.
It is mostly arched in shape, but it is also flat or semi-cylindrical, and its main use is as a roof for houses.
The color of the tiles is mostly brick red or gray, beautiful and neat, and the durability is high, and the buildings that use tiles are common in mostly rainy areas.
The history of the use of tiles in China can be traced back to the early Western Zhou Dynasty, in 1976, a group of large building foundations in Fengyan Village, Qishan County, Shaanxi Province, a small number of broken tiles were found on a charred wooden pillar.
According to the radiocarbon determination of the carbonized wooden pillar, the result is the early Western Zhou Dynasty around 1000 BC, that is, as early as 3000 years ago, the tiles have appeared on the building.
After thinking about it for a long time, Ye Feng silently came up with a firing method in his heart.
He went to the tribe's pottery kiln and saw that Barr was directing the members of the pottery team to start lighting the kiln.
Ye Feng asked him to be in charge of the pottery burning, that is, he did not choose the wrong person, and he was always meticulous in completing every firing task he assigned.
Not only that, but he can also gradually improve the technique of firing pottery from the experience he has accumulated in his usual life, although he has to go down the wrong path from time to time, but as long as Ye Feng gently knocks on the point, he can always return to the most correct position.
Therefore, the pottery burning group is the group that Ye Feng doesn't have to worry about the most.
When Barr saw Ye Feng coming, he hurriedly ran to him and said, "Ye Feng, if you can come here, there must be something to burn?" ”
When Ye Feng heard this, he smiled and smiled: "What do you mean 'When I come here, there must be something to burn'?" I can't have anything else when I'm here? ”
This really can't be blamed on him, every time Ye Feng comes, he always brings simple or complex tasks, and he will not come to this place of smoke and heat when he is killed.
Barr nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, of course you can do other things, so what do you do?" I will do what I can do! ”
"What's the matter~" Ye Feng dragged out his tone and said, "Of course, I came here to burn a new kind of pottery!" ”
"Tao ...... Pottery? Barr was stunned when he heard this, didn't Ye Feng say that he didn't come to burn pottery, but to do something else?
Ye Feng didn't care about Barr's current feelings, he hurriedly took out a piece of animal skin prepared a few days ago from his arms, and spread it out.
He pointed to the sketch on it and said, "Oh, that's it, I named it 'tile', do you think we can fire it with the current pottery burning technology of our tribe?" ”
Barr was puzzled, but when he heard this, he hurriedly walked to Ye Feng's side and poked out his head.
Seeing this sketch, he said in surprise: "Ye ...... Leaf wind, it ...... It's really pottery...... Pottery? ”
For a long time, the pottery used by the tribe to burn paper was mainly made of containers, so he always kept in mind the impression that pottery = containers, but he did not expect that pottery could be made into other shapes.
Ye Feng didn't speak, just nodded with a smile.
He hurriedly pointed to the sketch on the map and said, "Ye Feng, this is called digging...... Depression...... Uh, no, what's it called? ”
Ye Feng rolled his eyes and said, "Tile! ”
"Wow! Yes, yes, that's it! What is it here for? ”
Uh, well, he still didn't give the staff a thorough tone.
Ye Feng didn't bother to correct it, so he introduced the tiles, and finally asked: "By the way, you haven't answered me just now, can you burn it out with the tribe's current technology?" ”
Barr frowned and thought for a while before replying, "Because it should be fired, but whether it is or not, you have to try it to find out." ”
Ye Feng hurriedly said: "Then what are you waiting for, let's go burn tiles now!" ”
Barr hurriedly stopped the excited Ye Feng and said, "Ye Feng, wait a minute!" ”
