Chapter Ninety-Six: Homemade Charcoal

"It's been a long time since we've used that stove." Le Hao explained: "The main reason is that there is no charcoal to burn, and the charcoal that I gave when I bought the stove has long been used up.

Lin Xiaoquan only then reacted: yes, because he has been using the charcoal that he has burned and prepared in the Taoyuan space, he has never lacked charcoal, and he has not realized this problem.

"Then I'll teach you how to make charcoal, it's just right today. I learned it from the villagers in the village, using a stuffy method. Lin Xiaoquan then beckoned Le Hao and Yu Yizhou to work together, "While it's still early, let's hurry up!" ”

"Sister Quan, shall we bring it back together later? Can you get so much stuff? Yu Yizhou asked.

"Hahaha, it's fired today, the charcoal isn't so fast, and as soon as tomorrow, it may take Monday afternoon to come here again to get the charcoal." Lin Xiaoquan replied.

"First we take some wood and break it with a stone." Lin Xiaoquan gestured and explained, and at the same time directed Le Hao and Yu Yizhou to dig a soil pit.

Next, Koizumi placed the prepared timber horizontally and arranged it neatly in the pit.

"Next, we continue to add wood, and if there is dead wood around the pit, we need to pay attention to clean it up to avoid fire, but there is almost no grass around here, so we don't have to worry." Lin Xiaoquan said with a smile.

"Lehao, you can find some more dry grass. On a continent, you go to the river to find some semi-moist mud. Lin Xiaoquan commanded in an orderly manner.

When the materials were ready, Koizumi covered the pit with dead grass and piled it with mud on top.

"Pay attention to reserving an exhaust hole here." Lin Xiaoquan said as he stepped on the edge with his foot, dug out an air inlet, put hay on it, and stepped on the top of the kiln.

"Next, we lit the hay at the air intakes and dug a small exhaust hole at the top. After igniting the fire, seal the small exhaust hole when the smoke is at its highest, narrow the air intake hole, and wait for the roof of the kiln to sink. Lin Xiaoquan divided five by two, and quickly got it right.

"In the end, I just continued to narrow the air intake and burned it overnight."

"Sister Quan is mighty!" Yu Yizhou praised.

"And when can we get it?" Le Hao asked.

"The next day, we will come tomorrow to block the air intake, close it for another two days, and it will be ready for firing as soon as Monday afternoon." Lin Xiaoquan thought for a moment and replied.

The three of them packed up their work and prepared to leave and return to the base.

This time, Lin Xiaoquan did not immediately go to the village to sell the "Bigu Pill", she planned to trade in the village tomorrow when she came to block the air intake herself, and it would be better to hide people's eyes and ears at that time.

Fortunately, when they came out, all three of them were carrying large bags.

When I went back, except for the pots and pans I brought. Lin Xiaoquan packed the sweet potatoes and taro from the village (in fact, from his own Taoyuan space) to Le Hao and Yu Yizhou and brought them back.

The trio rushed back to the base before it was completely dark.

At the gate of the base, Koizumi and the two returned their bicycles and said goodbye and returned to their respective residences.

Lin Xiaoquan met Lu Cheng downstairs in his residence.

"Lin Xiaoquan!" Lu Cheng greeted Lin Xiaoquan warmly.

"Hello, Major Lu." Lin Xiaoquan responded politely.

"Koizumi, did you just come back from outside?" Lu Cheng asked with interest.

"Yes, I met my former classmates in the base and walked outside the base together."

"Walking outside the base? Be careful! Lu Cheng frowned after hearing this.
