According to the plan, firewood was added to the lower kang tunnel of the cement furnace kiln, limestone and slightly dry yellow mud were stacked in the kiln room above the kang road, and the personnel passage was closed after arrangement. A few coolies on the www.biquge.info side of the pen "Fun" began to pull the bellows, and the air entered the kiln after passing through the kang tunnel where the firewood was stacked, and then was discharged through the reserved exhaust holes.

Xia Feng put his hand on the exhaust hole, felt a strong wind blowing out of the hole, and nodded at Binglian and Jiao Ming. The three little ones were also arranged in front of the furnace, they had already been guided to the fire magic talent, but it was only the second ring, and the ice lotus was telling them how to strengthen the burning of firewood.

Jiao Ming noticed that one of them was the little boy who was with little Warren the day before yesterday. The other two are a boy and a girl, the little boy has no impression, but this little girl is very talented in mathematics, and she is almost in the mode of answering in Jiao Ming's math class.

As the preparations gradually became ready, all the irrelevant people left the furnace, leaving only Binglian and the three little ones. Binglian glanced back at Jiao Ming, Jiao Ming naturally nodded encouragingly, Binglian said softly: "Pull the bellows!", and then snapped her fingers lightly to complete the ignition, shooting out a red fire from the gap in the reserved firewood hole below.

The three little ones were obviously very rusty, or they were frowning or gritting their teeth, trying to communicate with the fire magic medium.

A few minutes later, Binglian spoke again: "Stop! Add firewood!" The coolies listened to the order, stopped the bellows, and one coolie used a long branch to pick up the broken bricks that plugged the firewood hole, and the other people did not approach the kiln, but just inserted the reserved long firewood far into the firewood hole, and then sent it together, and pushed the whole firewood into the firewood hole.

After adding some firewood, the fire increased even more, Binglian picked up a few broken bricks and threw them, gently blocked the firewood hole, and then ordered to pull the bellows again.

After adding firewood five times like this, the ice lotus finally raised her hand to cast the spell. Jiao Ming had long been disappointed in the magic of this world, it was not cool at all, and this time it was the same, and it ended silently.

Binglian lowered her arms, but her body shook slightly. Xia Feng immediately stepped forward, helped the ice lotus, and then beckoned everyone to stop. Under the shade of the tree on the side of the road, Bing Lian was helped, and Jiao Ming laboriously moved over and asked about the situation.

"Very successful! Even better than expected!" Bing Lian's face was flushed, and she was covered with sweat, and she didn't know if she was hot or tired from casting spells, but she was filled with a kind of excitement, as if she was a child who had scored a perfect score. "The difficulty of casting spells has been reduced by more than one ring, and the magicians in the later stages of the third ring will be able to cast it. It's amazing. ”

"I'm asking you about your own situation!" Jiao Ming also has no tricks for this kind of workaholic.

"Of course I'm fine. ”

"You almost fainted. ”

"It's all trivial. Binglian waved her hand absently. "Now it's how to cool down the furnace and get our treasures out. ”

"Go ahead and pull the bellows. Jiao Ming directly gave a plan, and then he was still a little worried about Binglian: "You're really fine, you are the core of this whole process, and being stubborn will only delay things." ”

"Don't worry, I'm not only fine, but I also feel more affinity with the fire-based magic medium, burn it a few more times, maybe I will break through to the five rings soon." Binglian wiped away the sweat and fanned her face with her hand, and soon there was nothing unusual on her face.

Jiao Ming relieved his heart, turned his head to take a closer look at the brick wall that had just withstood the test of high temperature and fire, and sure enough, a small crack appeared at the top. After more than twenty minutes, as fresh air continued to pour into the furnace, the inside returned to normal temperature, but fortunately the crack in the top of the brick wall did not extend and deepen.

A group of coolies opened the passage, loaded the powder into sacks with wooden shovels, transported them out one by one, and placed them neatly, and then cleaned up the remaining impurities and fragments in preparation for the next kiln firing.

Jiao Ming twisted the suspected cement powder with his fingers, his brows furrowed, and he always felt that it was not the same as what he saw when he was on Earth, and even the samples given by Vera were a little different. However, when building the outer wall of the masonry kiln, these powders did show good adhesion, and Jiao Ming couldn't think of the answer, and finally reluctantly attributed it to the rough production process.

......

Jiao Ming was naturally happy with the results, but the next problem naturally arose: warehousing.

"There's something important that we may have forgotten. Jiao Ming started with this, attracting Binglian's attention: "We should build a warehouse." ”

Binglian looked at the neatly stacked sacks and didn't keep up with Jiao Ming's train of thought. Jiao Ming pointed upwards to the sky: "If this rains down, boom~, it will all be in vain." ”

Binglian was suddenly shocked: "Fortunately, you thought of it." Then he looked up at the sky: "Luckily, at least it won't rain tonight." We still have time. ”

"Without further ado, we might as well build a warehouse here with this cement. Jiao Ming saw that Binglian was a little reluctant, so he had to add two more reasons: "Make a pergola on the side, so that it will be convenient for the caster to recover his mental power in the future." In addition, these coolies will have more experience in building houses, and the big houses on the river beach will also have fewer problems. ”

Binglian nodded in agreement, and said that all the affairs of the warehouse would be handed over to Jiao Ming, and then Jiao Ming was given a part of the coolies.

Jiao Ming commanded these coolies to start leveling the land on the hillside, there were no measuring tools here, and Jiao Ming didn't bother to think of any soil methods, but he felt that it was over when it was flat. According to the order of laying a layer of mortar, covering a layer of bricks, and then laying a layer of mortar, a hardened surface of two square meters was made, and only two square meters used a small half of cement.

Bing Lian's eyelids jumped for such a high-consumption method, and her eyes were not good, but she didn't say anything. Jiao Ming knew that Binglian was very picky, so he had to explain at this time: "This is a mountainous area, with a lot of humidity and heavy morning dew, so this ground must be thickened, otherwise the moisture will infect the cement." ”

Binglian nodded reluctantly, agreeing with this statement.

"And you also have to change this problem of picking the door, in the future, the money will be like running water, and it will be useless for you to stare at the time. Jiao Ming joked with a smile. Binglian just snorted, didn't answer, and turned around to direct the coolies to prepare various materials for the next kiln.

Then it hardened two square meters to form a two-meter square platform, and after asking the ice lotus to catalyze the cement hardening, a layer of branches was laid on it, and then bags of cement were put on it.

......

The materials of the second kiln cement were only half prepared, and when Binglian saw that the time was almost up, he beckoned everyone to call it a day, and then, like yesterday, took everyone to the river to bathe. On the way back to the castle, Shining Scale rode her cow, and next to her were a group of little ones who listened enviously to her boasting. The three little guys with the talent of the second ring of the fire system were taken by the ice lotus for further teaching. The other little ones are still running back and forth, as if they have ruthless and endless energy, and they don't have the consciousness of working in the dark.

Jiao Ming looked at the commotion, shook his head with a smile, and turned to lie on the back of the cow and look at the sky. At this time, Xiao Shi suddenly jumped on the back of the cow, and Jiao Ming only thought that the little guy wanted to be lazy, so he moved his body to make way for a seat. Then he felt a small spiritual power gently brushing his mind like a strand of hair.

"So diligent? Don't forget to do magic experiments at this time?" Jiao Ming closed his eyes, cooperating with Xiao Shi's spiritual power, but his mouth was teasing.

"Of course! Cooperate obediently, don't speak. ”

Jiao Ming felt drowsy, and then he really fell asleep, and when he opened his eyes again, he found that he was still lying on the back of the hammer, which was already eating grass in the cowshed behind the castle, surrounded by the sour smell peculiar to the barn. Outside the cowshed was a little poet and three girls pushing a wheelchair, and when they saw Jiao Ming waking up, they immediately beckoned.

"Uncle, if you don't wake up, we won't wait, and we won't be able to catch dinner any later. Flashing scales said, "Our group finally won the championship, but there are chicken thighs to eat." ”

"Xiaoshi, why did you put me to sleep again?" Jiao Ming asked, letting the hammer out of the cowshed and turning over and sitting back in the wheelchair. "Your magic is a boon to insomniacs. ”

"Probably a side effect of the experiment. Xiao Shi was obviously a little embarrassed, replied pitifully, and then quickly changed the topic: "Let's go to dinner, don't care about such a trivial matter." ”
