Chapter 236: Finally produced charcoal.

"Ha ha ha"

Flakes of snow fluttered down like willow catkins, covering the earth in white. All around was silent, with no birds to be seen.

It seemed as though the snow and cold had completely sealed everything off.

In this environment, a group of people suddenly poured out from the gates of the Green Sparrow Tribe. Leading the way was a young person.

They hurried towards the west side of the wall, coming to a raised area.

This protrusion had already been dug open, and the scattered clay and the black substance inside the protrusion were even more conspicuous against the surrounding white snow.Thi/s chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.co/m

The visibly respected young person didn't mind the dirtiness and directly entered the darkness.

As his hand moved, the black substance made a crisp sound, as pleasant to the ears as the joy in his heart.

Hei Wa wasn't wrong. The firewood hadnt been destroyed by the kiln. All the firewood inside had turned into charcoal, which was of the best quality!

"Ha ha ha!"

Han Cheng finally couldn't suppress the joy in his heart, lifting his two blackened claws and laughing heartily.

The heavens seemed unwilling to hear his unpleasant laughter and sent snowflakes into his mouth, attempting to shut it, but to little effect.

A series of joyful laughter continued to emanate from his mouth.

What an unexpected joy! This was indeed an unexpected joy!

Originally just an idea out of desperation, who would have thought it would actually result in such fine charcoal?

A problem that had troubled him so long was unexpectedly resolved in such an unforeseen manner

Thinking carefully, it was somewhat similar to the story of Yu Zhan'ao in "Red Sorghum", urinating into the wine mash and brewing excellent sorghum wine. It felt eerily similar to what he was experiencing nowunintentional success.

Reflecting on it, some things in this world are indeed quite helpless. The harder one tries to obtain something, the more difficult it becomes. On the other hand, some things that were not paid much attention to bloomed and bore fruit.

The flames were sent in from above and soon ignited the firewood inside the kiln. As time passed, the flames inside the kiln began to descend.

Han Cheng stood on a stone, watching this happen, pondering why there was such a big difference between igniting the fire from below and igniting it from above using the same method.

After thinking for a while, apart from understanding that it had something to do with oxygen, he knew nothing else.

At this moment, he regretted being a liberal arts student in his previous life. If he were a science or technology enthusiast, he would encounter fewer difficulties in these aspects, right?

Thinking like this, he shook his head with a smile. Then, he felt fortunate because he remembered the approximate proportions of bronze.

He had seen this in comprehensive history books when studying the history of the Shang and Zhou dynasties. Since the proportions were all integers, Han Cheng wrote them down.

This gave him some confidence in the upcoming tasks.

The proportions of bronze recorded in the book were somewhat inaccurate, but the general framework was there, which would significantly reduce the workload in the future.

Experiments could be conducted based on these proportions to achieve better bronze performance.

Han Cheng didn't remember the proportions of bronze at first. It was only after continuous recollection later that the memories of that period suddenly surfaced.

Worried that he might forget later, Han Cheng recorded them on a piece of pottery.

From about a year ago, Han Cheng occasionally wrote things on pottery.

A good memory is no better than a bad pen. This saying is quite true. As he gradually adapted to life here, when he recalled the future, sometimes it felt very close, and sometimes it felt very distant.

But one undeniable fact was that many things were gradually becoming fuzzy in his mind.

This was the most fundamental reason why Han Cheng recorded some valuable things that he could remember and were helpful in this era.

Because this era is too far from the future, many things that seem very ordinary in the future are groundbreaking here. By recording more of them, he could avoid many detours in certain aspects in the future.

For example, the remembered proportions of bronze, the vaguely remembered but existent steelmaking method from somewhere, the curved plow for cultivating land, the primitive plow, and the ox-drawn hoe used for weeding and tilling the fields

These are all essential things for this era that will make his and the Green Sparrow Tribe's future path broader and easier.
