After a heavy rain, the weather cleared up and the entire Qingque tribe seemed a little excited.
There was no rainbow in the sky, but the Son of God himself worked for many days. They had been curious about it for a long time, and finally the lump of iron was refined!
It is said that this thing called iron is harder than stone, sharper than the thinnest bone knife, and cannot be compared with the sharpest bone needle...
"hiss!"
The shaman, whose eyes were wide open and had lost a lot of his teeth, looked at the so-called iron thing in front of him, gritted his teeth and took a deep breath.
"hiss!"
As the leader, the Second Senior Brother also came forward. After carefully looking at the objects placed on the pottery board in front of him, his face was full of disbelief, and he took a deep breath...
"hiss!"
Shang stepped forward...
They looked at the four things on the stone slab in front of them, and then took a peek at Han Cheng. They were all confused.
It turns out this is iron!
It turns out that this is what iron looks like!
Can this thing be sharper than a bone knife? Sharper than a bone needle?...
Everyone looked at the four lumpy things placed on the stone slab, which were three flat and four out of round. They were all shocked.
This was highly valued by the Son of God, and they also had unlimited expectations for iron, which completely exceeded the imagination of primitive people.
Han Cheng looked at everyone's appearance, then looked at the four strange-shaped iron lumps placed on the stone slab, and couldn't help but twitch his nose.
It’s no wonder that Wu, Senior Brother and the others have this look on their faces, and they are really sorry for the audience with these lumps.
If Han Cheng hadn't known the important role of iron, his response wouldn't have been any better than Wu and the others.
It seems that we need to quickly create the finished iron tools so that these guys can have a good eye-opening experience.
Han Dashenzi, who felt shameless, thought like this, lit the stove again, and put the largest piece of iron into the stove to burn.
There is another stove next to this stove, and the walls and sealing of the stove are better than this stove.
That furnace was built after many experiments to melt these tiny iron beads into molten iron.
Compared with copper and aluminum, which have a lower melting point, it is really not easy to melt the small iron beads into water and mix them together.
It can be said that it took a lot of effort.
Han Cheng not only renovated the furnace many times with Heiwa, but also selected the best charcoal for making iron one by one.
Han Cheng tried adding plant ash, carbon powder and other things into these small iron beads to try to lower the melting point of the iron beads. After struggling for a long time, he finally melted these small iron beads.
As a liberal arts student who loves history, this is really difficult.
For these four pieces of extremely ugly iron, Han Cheng has helped them plan their lives.
The largest piece and the third largest piece are used to make knives, and the second largest and smallest pieces are used to make chisels and saws.
Han Cheng did not consider iron weapons now.
Good steel must be used on the blade. The Qingque tribe does not have steel now, so the little iron it has must be used on the blade.
At this time, it is more meaningful to use this bit of iron to make some important production tools to improve the productivity of the Qingque tribe than to make a few weapons.
Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that the Qingque Tribe now has things like walls, bows and arrows, and is in a leading position in the nearby area, so it has a lot to do with it.
If the situation was really urgent, Han Cheng would have to tighten his belt and create several strategic weapons first.
The disappearance of the most powerful Bone Tribe and the convening of a beheading demonstration gave the Qingque Tribe a long enough time for peaceful development.
Don't worry if there is no longer peace. Once we fight a war, peace will continue.
Even for the Soaring Snake Tribe, which has never shown up and is more powerful than the Bone Tribe, Han Cheng is not too worried.
With all these preparations, if you dare to invade the tribe, the result will not be any better than that of the Bone Tribe.
The wind roared, the whitish fire continued to burn, and the iron inside turned bright red.
Han Cheng used two pieces of wood to quickly take out the iron block and placed it on the stone next to it.
In just this moment, the two wooden sticks were already ignited with flames. After a short while, the place where they connected with the iron block would be completely burned.
The stone underneath was not much better. Where it connected with the iron block, tiny stone chips flew away.
The temperature of this thing is too high, and wood and stone cannot withstand it, so it is not as useful as iron tongs and anvils.
But now there isn't much iron material to use, so we have to make do with it.
After Han Cheng put these things away, Hei Wa came over, carrying a simple wooden hammer made with a stone knife and stone chisel, and beat the iron hard one after another.
Han Cheng has not grown up and has little strength. For things like blacksmithing that require strength, he had to let Hei Wa follow him the whole time.
This kind of wooden hammer was made by Han Chengrang Lai from the hardest wood nearby.
It's not as good as a hammer in every aspect, but it can still be used.
The iron lumps, which turned from bright red to dark red, slowly changed their shape under the hammer of hardwood, from the initial irregularity to gradually becoming more regular.
After the temperature of the iron block dropped and it could no longer be broken, the iron block was picked up again and returned to the stove for burning...
Han Cheng changed his mind. Instead of making a knife for the largest piece, he changed it to a hammer.
To make iron, you not only need to be hard yourself, but the hammer also needs to be hard. This is what he learned after burning two wooden hammers and breaking three.
It is so difficult to just bring a piece of iron to hammer. If we don’t quickly update the blacksmithing tools, we don’t know how long it will take to make these lumps of iron into the expected tools.
Building a hammer is very important and necessary at this time.
Han Cheng admitted that he was a fickle man and he had new ideas about this piece of iron.
Iron axe.
This is what he planned to build after thinking about it.
At present, the tribe only has so much iron, so using the largest piece to make a hammer is really a waste.
After thinking about it, Han Cheng felt that it would be more cost-effective to build an axe.
One end is used for making iron and smashing things, and the other end is used for cutting wood after being flattened and bladed. It is easier to use than a hatchet.
As for the purebred iron hammer, wait until your tribe finds iron ore and can expand its scale to produce more iron before making it.
An iron ax is enough to handle such a small scene now.
It has a four-sided spindle head, a flat mouth, an eye in its waist, and a leg in its eye.
This riddle once made Han Cheng scratch his head.
Although it is rather tricky, it also summarizes the image of the ax very accurately.
