Chapter 35: Regulus
CHAPTER XXXV
At the foot of Skull Mountain, a hill-sized pile of ore has been piled up.
Shi Kangdang wiped the sweat from his face and continued to hit the stone with a stone pickaxe.
"Patriarch Shi, work so hard......" Fenghu said slowly, and the three of them came here.
"What are you doing here?" Shi Dangdang said with a humming voice.
Baili thundered: "We know that you are working hard here, but I can't come to see you." ”
"No, I don't have to. Shi Dangdang hammered the stone, and suddenly sparks splashed everywhere.
"Why is Brother Shi so angry. Baili Lei Ming said angrily: "A few of us came, not for anything else, but because we were worried that Brother Shi had been deceived." ”
"Deceived?" said Shi Dang.
"You didn't know that you were tricked!" He Dongyuan interjected.
Baili Lei Ming waved his hand at him, and continued to say to Shi Kangdang: "Han Nan has only been here for a few days, and the four of us still have deep feelings. We have to think for you in everything. Han Nan asked you to knock stones here, what will be the purpose, but it is just to see that you are really playing with you. ”
"Everyone knows that the stones of Skull Mountain shatter when touched, and they can't be used to make stone tools. "Wind Tiger Road.
Shi dared to be strong, but he was clumsy. He knew that Baili Leiming and the three of them had bad intentions this time, but he didn't know what to say.
"Brother Shi, now that winter is coming, we have to hurry up and store food. But you are wasted here, you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the tribesmen. ”
"This ......"
"Yo, all four of you are here, how do you have time to come here?"
There was a voice behind him, and a few people turned around and saw Han Nan standing behind him with a smile.
"Brother Nan, we don't see that you are busy here, come and see if there is anything we can help with. Baili thundered.
"Hehe......" Han Nan smiled and said: "Don't trouble the three of you, your tribe needs to store food, and there are not enough people." ”
"Yes, yes. Baili Lei Ming nodded, and suddenly saw Han Nan followed by more than a dozen wild donkeys, and there was something attached to the wild donkeys.
"Hey, what is this?" asked Baili Leiming.
"Car. Han Nan said: "Let's visit." ”
Baili Lei Ming and the four surrounded him curiously, and the donkey was connected to a wooden board with animal skin, and two logs were placed under the board.
Han Nan has been busy with this matter for the past few days, first letting the clansmen start taming the donkey herd. These donkeys are not small, but they are still very obedient under the suppression of the donkey king. Then he asked his people to build a cart out of wood. It's still very rudimentary, of course, but when the first bronzes are made, everything will be fine.
"Brother Nan, what is this for?" asked Baili Leiming.
"Some gadgets. Han Nan laughed twice and said to Shi Dang: "Patriarch Shi, you let people put the stones on the car." ”
In a short time, more than a dozen vehicles were already filled. With a creaking sound, Han Nan sat on Silly Qiang and smiled at a few people who thundered for hundreds of miles: "Everyone, I will leave first, and I will have time to be a guest of the Qingshan tribe." ”
Until the car disappeared from sight, Baili Lei Ming still looked intently in the direction of Han Nan's departure.
"If our tribe had this thing, it would be much easier to get lucky things in the future. Wind Tiger said.
He Dongyuan said: "I have been staring at the Qingshan tribe these days, they first built an adobe house, I went in and saw it, the conditions inside are much better than the cave we live in. Their tribe also had pottery, bows and arrows, and now a cart. What kind of head do you say this Han Nan has, and how did he come up with these things. ”
It was as if this thing was in his head and he took it out of his hand. Baili thundered.
"Patriarch Thundering, do you say that such a person would casually play with Shi Dare to play?" asked Fenghu.
"This ......"
All three fell silent at the same time. Today, the three of them came to the foot of Skull Mountain, but they couldn't figure out Han Nan's intentions, and they came to fight Shi Dangdang, also because they were worried that Han Nan would really give him some great reward.
"Why don't we go to the Qingshan tribe and have a look?" asked He Dongyuan.
"But we didn't help when they asked us to help, so we'll go back ...... now."
"What's this. Shi Dangdang said: "He didn't invite us to the tribe as guests just now, we will be guests now." ”
After agreeing on the discussion, the three of them hurried to the Qingshan Tribe.
The three of them gasped, looking for Han Nan's figure in the tribe. Han Nan didn't find it, but saw Shi Dangdang guarding outside a courtyard.
"Why are you three here?" Shi Dangdang asked.
"Come and see you, Han Nan?"
"It's inside. ”
Baili Lei Ming nodded, and the three of them stepped into the courtyard, but they were stopped by Shi Dangdang.
"Han Nam said that no one was allowed to go in!"
"Forehead......" Baili thundered: "What is Han Nan doing inside?"
"I don't know about this, it's just that he doesn't let anyone in, not even me. "Shi dares to be in charge.
In the courtyard, Han Nan asked people to build two smelting furnaces, and put charcoal stuffed in advance underneath, with vents, and when the fire was ignited, Han Nan let the crushed copper ore be put into the smelting furnace. The copper mines of Skull Mountain have associated tin ore, and Hannam puts tin ore in another smelting furnace.
After the ore from both furnaces had melted, Hannan smashed the smelting furnace and extracted the melted tin and copper ore.
Now it is only crude raw ore, and the real use still needs to be purified. Hannan had copper ore and tin ore melted in pottery to remove debris. After it was completely purified, Hannam fused the two together. Finally, it is placed in a mold that has been kneaded with clay beforehand.
As for what to make for the first bronze, Han Nan thought for a long time. Because this is the world's first bronze after all, marking the world's transition from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age. It is a big step forward for civilization. Therefore, this first bronze must be cherished.
Han Nan thought about it for a long time before he figured out what to smelt. After the copper liquid solidified, Han Nan was about to have someone knock off the clay outside, when he suddenly heard a shout from outside.
"Brother Nan, are you inside?" Baili Thunder shouted through the door.
"Is there anything we need help with?" asked a chaotic voice.
"It turned out to be them. Han Nan smiled and asked everyone to clean up the traces of smelting, and now these things have to be kept secret from them.
Han Nan opened the door, and Baili Lei Ming rushed in.
"Brother Nan, Brother Nan......" Baili Lei greeted him, his eyes looking at the yard. He said, "Brother Nan, what are you doing?"
"Some gadgets. Han Nan smiled: "Actually, the Thundering Patriarch can't come, I'm going to invite you to come over and have a look, this is a big deal after all." ”
Qingshan Feng, Qingshan Ye, Feng Feiyu Sisters, and other important people in the clan all came to this courtyard, and under everyone's gaze, Han Nan personally knocked away the mud shell outside.
