Chapter 378 The results are promising, let's start burning tiles! (4k, please subscribe!)

Five minutes later.

The flames rose.

The fire in the furnace gradually stabilized.

Seeing this, Lu Yu wiped his sweat and let out a long breath.

Turning around, he came to the hut first.

He took three dried fish from the eaves.

Then he went to the chicken coop and got a turkey egg.

He was going to eat something during this time.

The kiln must be burned thoroughly.

It will definitely take a long time.

If you are lucky, it will take three to five hours.

But if something goes wrong in the middle, it is common to burn for a day and a night.

"After the fire stabilizes, you don't have to keep watching it. Wait for it to extinguish itself before proceeding to the next step."

"It should be noted that the temperature must not be low for the first kiln firing, and it must be burned thoroughly."

"Therefore, it is best to observe every ten minutes. If the temperature is low, be sure to add firewood in time, otherwise it is likely to fail. "

"If nothing unexpected happens, we will be busy tonight."

"Let's fill our stomachs while we have time..."

Take the ingredients back to the campfire.

Lu Yu threw the dried fish directly into the fire.

Then, he picked a clean stone slab near the camp.

After it was thoroughly heated, he cracked the eggs on it.

Leaning against a tree.

Lu Yu chatted with the audience while leisurely waiting for dinner to be cooked.

After spending so many days on the north shore.

The food supplies in the camp have been almost consumed.

Except for three or five turkeys and a few smelly salted dried fish, there is no other edible food.

In addition.

Since the cassava in the vegetable garden has not yet arrived Maturity.

A garden of carbon water is basically not enough to quench thirst.

So, after the hut is renovated, Lu Yu has to embark on a journey to find food again.

But because he has professional hunting tools, Lu Yu is not too worried about the problem of food.

As long as it is not a large beast like an adult wild boar, the beautiful prey in his hand should be useful.

...

After a while.

Finished dinner hastily.

Lu Yu came to the kiln again.

Look inside along the mud mouth of the kiln roof.

As time goes by, the fire in the kiln becomes more and more intense.

The flames burning in the furnace.

Its momentum does not decrease.

It is spraying out through the honeycomb holes.

At this time, the temperature in the kiln has reached an unprecedented peak.

The color of the inner wall and the grate has already appeared.

It is estimated that it will not be necessary How long will it take to be completely fired?

At this time, the pottery hanging aside has almost dried.

It is expected to be no later than ten o'clock tonight.

These semi-finished products can be put into the kiln.

...

While waiting for the fire to go out,

Lu Yu found a piece of clam shell left over from eating before and polished the dried pottery.

"If conditions permit, it is best to polish the dried earthenware."

"Because the surface of the polished pottery will become smoother, tighter, and more shiny, thus avoiding problems such as uneven heating."

"This is not a necessary step, but it can greatly improve the firing effect."

"Especially when firing pottery in the open air."

When firing pottery in the open air, it is difficult to reach the temperature standard because there is no shelter from the earthen kiln.

The surface of the clay often cracks.

At this time, a little external force is needed to avoid this situation.

Polishing is one of them.

Don't underestimate this process.

Many times, it can really make you get twice the result with half the effort.

Soon.

After polishing all the pottery on hand, the green smoke at the kiln mouth began to turn from thick to thin!

The firewood in the furnace was finally extinguished, leaving only a pile of red charcoal.

At this time, look at the furnace grate and the inner wall.

The color has changed beyond recognition.

The texture is no longer soft.

It has become extremely hard.

It is covered with a light luster.

"Well, it's almost burned..."

"Looking at the color of the inner wall, the temperature in the kiln should be up to standard."

"Okay, next, it's the highlight of tonight-"

As he said, Lu Yu turned around and put the prepared pottery one by one on the grate.

Then, he took a lot of firewood, filled the furnace, and ignited it with fire.

The heating process of the earthen kiln is very long.

It takes at least an hour to reach the peak.

During this period, in order to ensure the temperature in the kiln, some firewood must be added from time to time to maintain the fire.

Because when firing clay, the temperature must not be low.

Otherwise, all the previous efforts will be wasted.

So, in the next few hours.

Lu Yu was not idle at all.

Stayed until late at night.

Finally, he stopped only after making sure that the pottery in the kiln was completely stable.

"The fired pottery cannot be put into use immediately. The kiln needs to be sealed and cooled for a period of time."

While talking, Lu Yu picked a lot of palm leaves from the woods and covered the kiln mouth:

"Let's go to sleep first. I guess it should be almost ready when we wake up tomorrow morning."

"Okay, everyone, today's live broadcast ends here. Don't go away. The excitement will continue tomorrow..."

...

No words all night.

The next morning.

In the blink of an eye.

As soon as the broadcast started, countless viewers waited in front of the screen, waiting for Lu Yu to appear again!

Soon.

It was 5:15.

The live broadcast officially started.

Swish!

The screen shook for a moment.

The fresh sunlight fell through the gaps between the branches and leaves in the jungle.
