Chapter 31 Gathering Raw Materials

The knife shape came out, the appearance of a dog-legged knife.

Li Zhenhua's last blow fell on the knife blank, and the whole knife blank was completed.

"Huazi, what's next for this knife?"

Guo Shugui held the camera on the side, pointed at the knife blank in Li Zhenhua's hand and asked.

"The next step is quenching, after quenching, open V, open the blade, install the handle, polish it brightly, and then the pattern on the knife will be revealed."

Li Zhenhua grabbed the knife blank and waved it twice in the air, testing the comfort of the knife.

"Quenching, then do you have to temper later! The last batch of table knives didn't need to be tempered, is this knife going to use the tempering process? ”

After Liu Xiaodong heard this, he asked Li Zhenhua on the side.

"This knife is only quenched, not fired, and I plan to use a special method to quench."

Li Zhenhua looked at the two people on the side with puzzled faces, and didn't tell them what method to use.

"Okay, just look at it, I'll go find the ingredients!"

After speaking, Li Zhenhua put the knife blank in his hand on the anvil on the side.

Li Zhenhua thought about the warehouse next to him and walked in, and the two people who stayed,

Together they surrounded the knife blank on the anvil, a fat man who lived odds,

One grabbed the hilt of the knife, and I took it in my hand, and the thin one looked remorseful.

Li Zhenhua came to the storehouse, took out the iron powder he had collected when he was striking iron, and put it in the courtyard.

Then I took the borax that was placed next to the anvil and ground it into powdered toner in a basket.

Most of the raw materials have been gathered, and now there are still two kinds of missing, one is charcoal powder, and the other is raw soil.

Charcoal is easy to solve, and the most important thing in the blacksmith shop is charcoal.

Find some good fruit charcoal and put it in a stone mortar, and the charcoal will soon be pounded into powder.

There's just one thing missing now, and it's a bit hard to get this raw earth.

Li Zhenhua grabbed a shovel from the corner of the yard, as well as a Luoyang shovel that his grandfather had made before.

With two handfuls of things, he walked out the door.

"Guoba, take your camera, let me go, let's go to the forest by the river to find raw soil."

Originally, Guo Shugui was looking at the knife blank with one hand, and the other hand was holding the camera at Li Zhenhua, and he faithfully filmed all Li Zhenhua's actions just now.

"Hey, here, Huazi, what are you going to do?

And the one you are carrying is the Luoyang shovel?

Are you going to go to the inverted bucket?

Are you out of the blacksmith profession, and you also work part-time as a tomb robber! ”

Guo Shugui, who has a very big brain, asked Li Zhenhua after seeing him.

", I'm a good person, you think I'm Hu Bayi,

Touching Captain Jin is not good in the novel, and my Luoyang shovel is not used for inverted buckets.

Hurry up and you'll know what I'm up to in a moment! ”

After Li Zhenhua finished speaking, he walked out of the courtyard, and Guo Shugui followed behind with his things.

Liu Xiaodong, who had been playing with semi-finished knife blanks, saw that the two of them had gone out, and hurriedly followed.

Li Zhenhua took the two of them, holding tools, and walked to the river.

There was a small forest by the river, and Li Zhenhua stopped near the river.

Put the two tools in your hand humanely, and then based on your own experience,

Coming to the ground between the two trees, Li Zhenhua used his feet to sweep aside the leaves that covered the ground.

The land leaked out, Li Zhenhua picked up his Luoyang shovel and started working on the ground.

Grabbed the Luoyang shovel with both hands, lifted it in the air, and smashed it down to the ground.

The Luoyang shovel is very sharp, three points into the soil, and Li Zhenhua pulled it out again.

Luoyang shoveled into the soil and filled it with dirt, and then poured the soil in the shovel aside.

He lifted the shovel again and smashed it down into the hole.

Just digging down little by little, the handle of the Luoyang shovel was originally two meters long, but now the handle of the shovel exposed is only about fifty centimeters.

In other words, the hole that Li Zhenhua is digging has reached a depth of 1.5 meters.

Pulling out the Luoyang shovel again and pouring the soil in the shovel aside, Li Zhenhua looked at the soil and shook his head in disappointment.

Yellow clay: the microbial content and humus matter exceed the standard, which does not meet the soil standard.

"Alas, it's not good to be a teacher, this place doesn't have it, let me dig so deep in vain."

Li Zhenhua put the Luoyang shovel aside, took the shovel, scooped up the excavated soil, and poured it into the hole, and the hole one and a half meters deep was buried in a short time.

"Huazi, what are you doing here!

Why can't the two of us understand your operation, you are now a living tomb robber in my eyes. ”

Guo Shugui, who didn't understand what Li Zhenhua was doing, finally couldn't help the doubts in his heart and asked Li Zhenhua.

"Go to your tomb robber master, I'm looking for raw soil, haven't you read too many novels, there are so many tomb robbers in reality!"

Guo Shugui was not happy when he heard it, and he was busy talking back.

"You see that you are lonely and unheard, hasn't the third uncle dug into Sanxingdui? There is also the one who wrote the novel named Wang, aren't they all from inverted fights? ”

When Li Zhenhua, who was tired of digging, heard this, his interest also came up, and he threw the shovel to the side.

I didn't think the ground was dirty, so I sat on the ground and said to Guo Shugui.

"You pull it, when the third uncle wrote the novel, Sanxingdui had already been dug up, okay, it was the existing Sanxingdui, and then there was the third uncle's novel.

and that Wang, he is really from an upside-down fight,

Besides, I'm just here to dig up usable soil, raw soil

Soil dug from a deep depth, soil that does not contain humus and has almost no nutrients. ”

After listening to Li Zhenhua's explanation, Guo Shugui understood that he thought he had encountered something terrible before!

After gossiping, Li Zhenhua found another place, and once again took the Luoyang shovel and began to dig down.

It was not until the fourth hole that Li Zhenhua finally dug up the soil that met his requirements.

At this time, the shovel, which had been of little use, came in handy, and the hole was the center and dug downward.

A large pit was soon dug one meter square and about one meter deep.

Li Zhenhua squatted down, picked up a small pinch of soil, and twisted it in his hand.

A smile finally appeared on his face, and it was finally in vain, and the raw soil was finally found.

With a shovel in hand, he began to dig and put it in a woven bag that he was carrying.

threw the soil on it, climbed out himself, and threw the shovel at Liu Xiaodong, who was idle on the side.

"Fatty, I'll leave the rest to you, take a shovel and bury this big pit for me,

But I'm so tired that I can't lift up any strength now. ”

Liu Xiaodong saw that Li Zhenhua was so tired, so he grabbed a shovel and began to bury the soil.

Soon the pit was filled, Li Zhenhua carried the woven bag, and Liu Xiaodong took two tools and beckoned Guo Shugui to go back together.

"Let's go, the raw materials have been collected, it's time to move on to the next step, Guoba, did you take the picture just now, if you shoot it, send it to the organizing committee."
