108 Breeding(5)
Zhang Xiangyang and Wu Sang joined hands, and the goal of the two reached an agreement, making iron
Basically everyone understands the technology required for ironmaking, and even Zhang Xiangyang understands the specific steps under the explanation of the rest. Baidu search, more good free reading.
The furnace had already been set up, and some copper slag had been extracted.
Now it is to smelt the copper slag that is extracted from the ore into copper blocks
Zhang Xiangyang was responsible for going out to find food and supplies, and the rest were responsible for making iron and building the top of the mountain at home.
The first was from the bronze mine, and in order to prevent poisoning and burns, several people began to weave coats from grass and sew masks from animal skins.
Iron smelting and copper ore smelting do not require much ore, and the main problem is quality.
High-quality ore can directly smelt copper and iron, and low-quality is copper slag and iron slag.
Therefore, there is no need for too many people, and the main factor that determines whether or not you can train iron is whether you can find high-grade ore
Zhang Xiangyang came to the river with a basket on his back, and some copper ore has been carried back one after another these days, as long as two copper hammers and a copper board can be burned, iron can be smelted.
Now the main search is for high-quality iron ore.
It's easy to see some reddish-brown silt on the edge of the river, which can actually be used to make iron.
Junior high school textbooks have taught that iron in nature undergoes redox reactions when exposed.
According to the inference of Zhang Bin and others, there should be a large amount of rust in the outside world, as well as soil and ore mixed with iron.
Before the end of the world, the last thing that the human world lacks is iron.
How many tons of iron are produced in the human world?
No one knows about this.
However, the oxidation reaction of a large amount of iron caused a large amount of iron to decay and become debris, which drifted to various places on the earth's surface, or began to accumulate in the lower places along the current.
These things don't participate in the cycle like rain, but accumulate continuously
According to Zhang Hailing's guess, in the depths of the ocean, there may be a treasure island that rises after human slumber.
Good quality iron ore must be underground, Zhang Xiangyang held a bamboo gun, looking around for a pit that might hide iron ore.
He is not a professional miner, nor is he a geologist, but he has learned a lot from Wu Sang and Lu Shiqin, and if it is the kind of high-grade iron ore, he should be able to find it.
"There are places where water can easily gather nearby, the grass is thick, the soil is very humid, and even if there is iron ore here, it will not be rich in iron ore."
Zhang Xiangyang was very disappointed, although everyone said that there must be iron ore in this place, but he never found it. Baidu search, more good free reading.
"Where will it be?"
Zhang Xiangyang sighed, then cheered up and continued to walk forward with the basket on his back.
Recently, there are no fish in the river, such as crabs and turtles, and they are basically clean except for some water bugs that can be seen in the cold winter.
While passing near the dry reeds, Zhang Xiangyang heard the sound of birds, so he clenched his spear and looked around.
There were no wild animals nearby, and Zhang Xiangyang cautiously approached the reeds after making sure that there was no other danger.
The reeds here, like weeds, can easily block out the view.
Zhang Xiangyang slowly brushed aside the reeds in front of him and walked forward little by little.
The water in the ground had dried up, and in addition to fallen leaves and reed leaves, there were some branches and grass roots of dirt, on which shoes creaked and creaked.
The birdsong had stopped, and the sound of insects around it had become much weaker.
Zhang Xiangyang didn't get closer after walking a few steps, but used a bamboo and stone gun to pull away the reeds in front of him, and looked ahead a little nervously.
What will lie ahead
Will there be a woman in white with long hair covering her face?
Zhang Xiangyang thought about unrealistic things.
All of a sudden
"Quack"
A big gray bird pecked at Zhang Xiangyang violently and made a quacking sound.
The bird was the size of a goose, like a wild goose, with a long neck, gray wings, and a yellow beak.
At this time, the gray bird flew up directly and pecked in front of Zhang Xiangyang, and under this surprise, Zhang Xiangyang quickly retreated.
The gray bird did not stop there, and after landing on the ground, it flapped its wings again and continued to rush out towards Zhang Xiangyang.
Zhang Xiangyang just wanted to stab the big bird with a gun, but the big bird had already flown in front of its eyes, and the two big wings quickly crashed towards him.
The big bird stretched out his beak and pecked at Zhang Xiangyang's face, and Zhang Xiangyang quickly opened his position.
There are reeds all around, and the bamboo and stone spear is a burden in this kind of place, so Zhang Xiangyang quickly retreated.
"Quack Quack"
After the big bird fell, he jumped up again, and his body fluttered and flew in front of Zhang Xiangyang's face and bent his head to peck.
Ordinary people may not have reacted at this time, but Zhang Xiangyang is the kind of person who is very easy to calm down
The moment he saw the big bird approaching him, Zhang Xiangyang quickly held the bamboo and stone gun in one hand, and grabbed the big gray bird's neck with the other hand
"Ga"
Zhang Xiangyang felt the tremor in his hand, his hand had already stuck the face under the neck of the big bird, and he could clearly feel the sound coming from his neck.
The big bird's wings kept struggling to fly out, but Zhang Xiangyang no longer gave this thing the possibility of continuing to attack him, and his body had retreated to the shore.
After there were no reeds to cover him, Zhang Xiangyang squatted down, pressed the big bird to the ground, and then tied the wings and feet of the thing with a hemp rope around his waist.
"Is it a wild goose, forget it, I didn't care, I caught it anyway."
Zhang Xiangyang took a look at this big bird, like a gray goose, but he had never been in close contact with this kind of thing before, and now the animals of this era have changed a lot, so he can't be sure what kind of breed it is.
After throwing the big bird into the basket, Zhang Xiangyang found another reed to make a simple cover, and then walked towards the reeds, there should be something inside.
Zhang Xiangyang walked to the place where he met the big bird just now, and soon heard the sound of humming, and when he walked in, he saw a nest of chicks shouting with their beaks in the grass nest.
There are five of them, each palm-sized, and they must have been out of the shell for a while, and the feathers on their bodies are between yellow and gray.
Looking at the five chicks that kept making sounds, Zhang Xiangyang thought for a while, and still picked up the five chicks and the nest together.
Although I feel that I can't feed it, I can't live with five chicks here.
As for releasing the big bird, Zhang Xiangyang didn't think about it.
Even if he dies, he can provide everyone with feathers and meat, Zhang Xiangyang is a hunter.
"It seems that it is indeed not winter, and neither wild boars nor wild birds should breed offspring in the coldest time."
Zhang Xiangyang returned towards Changzhu Mountain, the five chicks in front of him, and the big bird behind him were screaming all the way, Zhang Xiangyang was a little worried that it would attract hunters, so he walked very fast along the way.
When he returned to Changzhu Mountain, Zhang Xiangyang breathed a sigh of relief.
It's just that it was not only the lookouts on the mountain who came to welcome Zhang Xiangyang, but also a huge wild boar that smelled the smell.
The big wild boar heard the sound and also smelled the smell of the birds, and at this time, he opened his mouth and was about to approach the five birds in front of Zhang Xiangyang.
Zhang Xiangyang had long been wary of this danger, and the bamboo gun in his hand slammed into the cheek of the big wild boar.
"Roll"
The bamboo itself is not suitable for pumping people and blowing, and it is easy to shatter.
The boar wailed and fled quickly.
In fact, it doesn't hurt at all, and the pigskin on the big wild boar can easily be lower than this pain.
The main thing is that it is suddenly attacked, which makes the female wild boar, who is easily frightened, subconsciously escape.
Zhang Xiangyang glared at the big wild boar angrily, still holding a bamboo stick that had been broken into dust.
After making sure that the big wild boar didn't dare to approach him, Zhang Xiangyang walked directly to the front.
Whether it is a wild boar or a bird of prey owl with the name of a night owl, as long as he dares to have any undesirable thoughts about his things, Zhang Xiangyang will definitely teach him a lesson
The owner here is always a human, not an owl or a wild boar
Soon, Zhang Xiangyang sent the goose and five chicks together.
After going up by himself and taking back the ladder with Zhang Han, Zhang Xiangyang also took a look at the big wild boar.
The big boar is looking for food nearby, constantly digging grass roots out of the soil with its hard nose and eating them.
Zhang Xiangyang threw aside the bamboo stick in his hand, "Be careful in the future, not only the wild boar, but also the owl."
Zhang Han saw the birds brought back by Zhang Xiangyang, and also understood Zhang Xiangyang's concerns, "Well, I understand"
Zhang Xiangyang was about to walk towards the house, when Zhang Han grabbed Zhang Xiangyang.
Under Zhang Xiangyang's puzzled gaze, Zhang Han said with a complicated expression: "When I was patrolling today, I heard the sound of vomiting on the other side of the toilet, it was Jiang Ruyun. ”
Zhang Xiangyang didn't understand what Zhang Han meant, and when he was about to ask, he suddenly realized something, and looked at Zhang Han with a solemn face: "Yours"
Zhang Han looked at Zhang Xiangyang anxiously and helplessly, and laughed angrily, "How can it be that she has only been here for a long time, and she Nima has only been here for half a month, besides, I have already said that I don't have that kind of idea, do you think I am farting when I speak?"
"Oh, sorry, I forgot, it was a bit sudden." Zhang Xiangyang quickly calmed down, and then still felt very tricky, "Are you sure she is pregnant?"
Zhang Han shook his head, "I'm not sure, I focused on observing it in the afternoon, and found that she went to the toilet once, and she couldn't see anything in her stomach, I have already told Lu Shiqin, let Lu Shiqin take a look when she takes a bath." ”
Zhang Xiangyang thought solemnly for a while, and after two or three minutes, he walked out directly.
"Let's have a meeting, no matter whose it is, let's talk about it when we are born."
Zhang Han sighed, "Let's give birth, I don't want to give birth anyway, in the future, Xiangyang you or Zhang Bin will have children, at least the children can have a marriage partner." ”
Neither Zhang Xiangyang nor Zhang Bin is opposed to having children.
They are not opposed to others having children, but neither of them has this idea for the time being, or even rejects it
There will be one shift for the next two days, starting from the first of next month, and two shifts per day.
