Li Fei couldn't help but look sideways at Su Xue.

"How did it work? Why didn't I see anything?"

Looking at Li Fei, who was anxious and a little ignorant, everyone couldn't help but smile a little at the moment.

"Captain, do you see those milky white shells and conch shells, when they are broken, they are quicklime." Su Xue patiently explained to Li Fei, and immediately picked up a conch shell and put it in Li Fei's hand.

The latter just rubbed it gently, and the shell in his hand instantly turned to ashes.

Looking at the white-gray powder in his hand, Li Fei's eyes moved slightly, and there was an indescribable feeling of excitement in his heart, for their entire island, this was a historic time.

And it was at this time that Zhu Hao showed a smile with relief, and the strings that had been tense in his heart for an unknown amount of time were finally loosened at this moment.

On this day, no one was under more pressure than him, and at this moment, he finally succeeded!

Although many of the people are like Li Fei, they don't know much about this thing, or even can't understand it at all.

But according to the expressions of Li Fei and Zhu Hao, it can be seen that this matter is most likely successful, so they also cheered along in the same way.

For a while, Zhu Hao seemed to have become the hero of the entire camp, and everyone looked at him with a little more reverence.

But the former just took a deep breath, tried to calm down the mood at the moment, and then opened his mouth to say to everyone.

"Everyone, don't be impatient, there is still one last process left before the official appearance of lime!"

As soon as Zhu Hao spoke, everyone consciously chose to shut up and did not disturb him to speak.

At this moment, everyone looked at him with bated breath, Li Fei's expression was slightly puzzled, and he asked, "What process?"

And Zhu Hao showed a hidden expression at this time, and continued to explain: "The main component of quicklime is calcium oxide, and what we need in the end is not this, what we want is calcium hydroxide!"

"Calcium oxide turns into calcium hydroxide when it comes into contact with water!" Although Li Fei didn't know much about this, he was also a man who had studied chemistry in high school, and he said in surprise at this moment.

Su Xue and Zhu Hao nodded at the same time, showing some appreciation and excitement in their eyes.

"What we have to do now is to collect all the quicklime from this first furnace, and everyone must remember to collect it carefully, otherwise it will be easy to damage the material." Zhu Hao opened his mouth and said, and immediately demonstrated the correct collection method to everyone very seriously.

The others nodded, and they all stepped forward to help Zhu Hao collect, many of the shells and conch shells were mixed with the ashes of the grass and trees, and those plant ashes were magazines that seriously affected the purity of the lime.

So when it came time to clean up the ashes of the grass and trees outside, everyone was careful.

And everyone else came forward to help one after another, and everyone had a special happy smile on their faces.

About half an hour later, with the concerted efforts of everyone, all the quicklime in it was collected into containers.

Not far from the stove, Zhu Hao had already dug a big pit just now, and poured a lot of water into it.

At first, everyone was still a little puzzled, but only now did they know Zhu Hao's purpose.

Li Fei and Zhu Hao carried baskets full of quicklime and went straight to the pool, while the rest of them surrounded them, staring at the scene in front of them with bated breath, for fear of missing some wonderful moments.

The moment the quicklime touched the water, a powerful heat exploded instantly, and in just ten seconds, the water in the puddle had already changed color.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Hao and Su Xue were both smiling, and when Li Fei saw the two of them smiling, he knew that the firing of lime must have been successful, so he also showed a smile.

As for the others, when they saw Li Fei laughing, they all understood, and they all began to clap and applaud one after another.

Needless to say, it was the first time in their deserted island that such a momentous moment had arrived

You know, lime is more than just a building material.

And this technology will definitely affect the indigenous people on this island, and can even change their living problems for three, four, or even ten generations.

"The first batch of lime was considered a success, but the amount was so small that it was not even enough to paint a wall of more than ten square meters."

Looking at everyone's happy mood, although Zhu Hao had no intention of breaking this atmosphere, he still appropriately opened his mouth to remind everyone.

Li Fei nodded lightly, "Everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as the first success is successful, the rest will not be a problem, from today onwards, while expanding the scale of lime burning, you can also start to focus on making houses."

Everyone nodded in unison, obviously because of the longing for a better life at the moment, they all seemed full of energy at the moment.

In the afternoon, Li Fei did a good job of the team's division of labor.

Zhang Ting began to draw drawings, and the rest of Su Xue, Liu Keying, and the other women in the camp were in charge of hunting and ensuring their logistics.

Ta Ji took other men from the tribe and was arranged by Li Fei to move stones, which is not difficult for these natives who have lived here since childhood.

The rest of the survivors were divided into two groups, one group went to the beach to continue collecting raw materials such as shells and conchs, and the other group stayed here to help Zhu Hao expand the scale of the blast furnace.

In the afternoon, Zhu Hao and Li Fei walked together, and the two of them looked for a suitable place to build a house in the surroundings.

"Please do a good job today, you should take the first credit!" Li Fei patted Zhu Hao's shoulder and said with an appreciative expression.

Since yesterday, he has felt that Zhu Hao is not a good-looking person, and he must be a person who can make a career.

It's just that I didn't expect him to be so capable.

The latter smiled, this day like the stars holding the moon did not make him proud, he turned sideways, but thanked Li Fei with a sincere face.

The latter opened his mouth and said, "Actually, it's not worth mentioning, but Captain Li Fei helped me avenge such a bloody vengeance, I am really grateful to you."

Between the two greetings, each other's previous feelings have also developed further, and at this moment, there is a feeling of sympathy for each other.

"If we were to leave one day, would you like to join our team?" Li Fei looked at Zhu Hao and asked bluntly.

The latter was silent for a moment, staring at Li Fei with the same blazing eyes, and then replied firmly: "If you are really lucky, you can't ask for it!"
