What should I do if I accidentally come to the ancient times?

First of all, we need to find clay. The material of the clay is very important. If too much sand is mixed in it, the bricks fired will not have much strength.

Fortunately, there is still a lot of clay in the bamboo forest. After less than an hour of searching, he found a huge piece of clay.

He directly uprooted the bamboo on the clay soil and threw it aside, then moved a large flat shale to the side of the clay soil, then placed the finished mold on the big shale, and then placed it on the big shale. Next to the shale was dug.

There is a special point here, that is, it is best to place the brick-making platform directly on the place where the clay is dug, so as to save the time of moving the clay back and forth.

Also, this patting bricks does not mean taking bricks to slap people's heads, but lifting a large piece of clay and shooting it into the wooden mold. The excess clay on the mold is scraped off, and then the clay brick inside the mold is knocked out, and a clay brick is formed.

There is also a trick to knocking out the clay bricks in the mold, that is, it is best to apply some water or powdery fine sand on the inner wall of the mold in advance, otherwise, the clay bricks inside are difficult to knock out, even if you knock hard Come out, nine out of ten are also deformed.

Zhao Hao used water, because the surface of the bricks would be smoother.

He worked alone on the clay for a whole day, and just finished taking pictures of various types of bricks. When Ayun and Ayue ran over to find him to go back to eat meat, they were really shocked by the scene in front of them.

This guy, why is the ground full of square clods?

Also, why did this guy treat himself like a mud monkey?

They really couldn't understand why people who are so big in the sky still play in mud, and they play for a whole day!

In fact, Zhao Hao still wants to invite them to play mud together, because there is a very famous movie about playing mud in later generations, two people play mud together, that is called a romance.

However, if it's three people playing mud together, it seems that it won't be romantic, because they are not in that relationship at the moment.

Zhao Hao didn't explain much because he had a ghost in his heart, he just jumped into the nearby stream to soak for a while, washed the mud off his body, and followed them back.

Early the next morning, he ran to the woods near the bamboo forest to look for firewood.

You can't just pick up some dry and fallen branches for firewood, you need to find a big tree that is about as wide as a brick, otherwise, it will be more troublesome when building a brick kiln.

Naturally, there are many such trees in the mountains and forests. However, due to various reasons, it is difficult to find the ones that are broken, dead, and dried out. He searched for a whole morning before he found enough firewood and moved them back to the clay land. .

The next step is chopping firewood.

The firewood can't be split randomly, it needs to be split to the same length as a brick, otherwise, it's not easy to build a brick kiln.

He worked hard for another hour, and finally got the firewood ready.

At this moment, the clay bricks on the ground are almost dry, and the clay brick kiln can finally start working.

He directly placed the large earthen bricks on the ground for a few walks, forming a roughly square shape, and then began to build earthen bricks and firewood on top of it. A kang does not need many earthen bricks, and builds an earthen brick kiln as tall as a person. That's basically it.

Fortunately, this is the case, otherwise, he would have to build a ladder.

The last step of this clay brick kiln is to seal the kiln, that is to seal the left, right, front and back of the built clay bricks, and seal the top with hay and soil.

After working all afternoon, a small adobe brick kiln was finally completed. Zhao Hao immediately lit the firewood and boiled it underneath.

When Ayun and Ayue ran over to find him to go back to eat meat, they were taken aback by the situation before them again.

God, what the hell is this guy doing?

It’s okay to play with mud yesterday, but today I’m playing with fire here!

These are children's play, right?

Also, what is this big earthwork taller than a person used for? Why pile up this thing? Can it be used for barbecue and smoked fish?

It seems impossible!

Zhao Hao still didn't explain much, when the firewood below was stuffed enough and the roof of the adobe brick kiln started to smoke, he jumped into the stream to wash himself clean, and then went back with Ayun and Ayue.

On the morning of the third day, it was finally time to check and accept the results. How strong are the clay bricks fired in this way? Can they be used to build a kang?

Zhao Hao ran to the adobe brick kiln, removed the surrounding adobe bricks, took out a large clay brick from inside, and used two adobe bricks to set it up on the ground, and then jumped on the big clay brick, jumping up and down. .

As for why this acceptance method is adopted, the reason is not enough and humane.

In short, the strength of this big clay brick is still very good. He jumped on it for a long time without breaking it.

Chapter 31 Winter Solstice

The reason why Zhao Hao couldn't find the stones for the kang was that it was difficult to find flat stone strips as wide as a bed among natural stones, let alone flat stone slabs as big as a bed. Moreover, the shapes of natural stones were basically irregular, and there was no way to Used to make the base of the kang.

This is different with ceramic bricks. The base of the kang can be built directly with small ceramic bricks. It is flat and stable, and you don’t have to worry about it collapsing when you press the bed hard at night.

There is also the bottom bed board of the heated kang, just use large ceramic bricks, as long as the bottom is supported by small ceramic bricks and placed in two or three rows horizontally.

Next, it took him half a day to build the heated kang, and, for firmness and airtightness, he also smeared clay in the gaps between all the bricks.

After many hardships, a brand-new kang finally appeared in the bamboo hut. Zhao Hao lay down on it and rolled it a few times. After trying it, there was no problem with its firmness at all, but it was a bit too hard.

This problem is not difficult to solve. Cut down a few trees, cut a few pieces of wood with magical soldiers and lay them on top, then put a layer of hay on top of the wood, and finally spread the tiger skin on the hay. That guy is called a soft man. ah!

Well, this tiger skin can be used to make bed sheets. After all, even if it is made into short skirts and waistcoats, it is still very cold to wear in winter, which is meaningless.

After lying down, he suddenly realized that he finally had a bed!

He couldn't remember how long he hadn't been in bed.

After lying down, he was so comfortable that he didn't even want to get up!

During this period of time, he basically didn't have a good rest, and even couldn't fall asleep at night due to some indescribable reasons. It can be said that he was extremely sleepy, so he fell asleep after lying down for a long time.

In the evening, Ayun and Ayue ran back to the house with Menglan and Mengbao, and were shocked again.

The heated kang has been set up, and the whole bamboo house is considered complete.

At this time, Zhao Hao had already lit the firewood in the fireplace, and the inside of the bamboo house was as warm as early summer.

There is also the heated kang on the high ground, and the flat saber-toothed tiger skin, so beautiful!

Ayun couldn't help jumping on the heated kang, this feeling was really comfortable, she shouted cheerfully: "Sister Ah Yue, come up and try it, the sky is not lying, this heated kang is much more comfortable than the ground. "

This!

Ah Yun is ignorant, but she is not.

What is it for a little girl to lie with someone else?

However, it seems that in the past, they slept together with Menglan and Mengbao every night. It seems that it is okay to sleep in another place.

Ah Yue finally couldn't help her curiosity, she walked slowly to the edge of the kang, sat down and tried it out, and then, Ah Yue threw her down.

So, curiosity can kill cats, and in many cases, curiosity can also kill people!

Zhao Hao actually woke up a long time ago, but as soon as Ah Yun rushed forward, he didn't want to wake up so soon. It wasn't until Ah Yun and Ah Yue played around him for a while, that he pretended to open his eyes, fascinated. He said vaguely, "Hey, it's getting dark soon, isn't it?"
