Chapter 168 Clay Bricks (3 more)

Chen Zhe stared at the clay bricks that had completely wrong proportions in front of him, which had not been burned yet.

The item upgrade system will give prompts immediately:

[Item detected: a clay brick with incorrect proportions.]

【Current durability of the item: 30/30.】

[Item value: 0.03 yuan.]

[Does it cost 5 popularity points to upgrade items?]

This time, Chen Zhe did not hesitate and directly chose to upgrade.

"upgrade!"

Then the clay bricks began to change, and the material of the entire brick became different from before.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Zhe saw the changes in subtitles:

[A clay brick with incorrect proportion] - [A clay brick with poor quality].

Continuing to upgrade will cost 6 popularity points.

The 6-point popularity value is now a drop in the bucket for Chen Zhe.

"upgrade!"

The bricks changed again, and the overall texture became stronger and more detailed.

At this time, the description in front of you became like this - [a high-quality clay brick].

"High-quality clay bricks! Well... the ratio of this brick should be correct."

Chen Zhe thought with satisfaction,

"The clay bricks burned from such a brick must be strong and practical, and will not be cracked or looser."

However, after getting a high-quality clay brick, Chen Zhe did not put it in the brick kiln to fire the clay bricks, but instead made a fuss and directly stripped the high-quality clay bricks.

He wanted to carefully observe what proportion is a high-quality clay brick, and what else is there in this brick besides 35% clay.

This is his purpose of using the system - since I can't match the appropriate ratio myself, I will first upgrade to a suitable ratio and then copy the system's ratio!

After the clay brick is fired, various auxiliary materials are mixed together and deteriorated, and basically the components inside cannot be seen. However, in the brick state, the various materials inside have not undergone qualitative changes at high temperatures. At this time, it is easy to distinguish their types and proportions.

"Let me take a look."

Chen Zhe whispered,

"First of all, it must be clay, then gravel... about 10%, next is sand and some ingredients of wood ash... tsk, the system is indeed a system, it's just good at playing."

Without hesitation, he "didn't out eight pieces" of bricks upgraded from the system. After studying the ratio of the various parts of this clay brick, while the memory was still clear, he immediately took the materials locally according to the ratio of the system and made a batch of similar bricks.

After the bricks were finished, the aroma of barbecue came from the camp.

He knew that it was Yan'er and the Qiao sisters who had cooked dinner and were waiting for him to go back for dinner.

Chen Zhe rolled up his sleeves and moved the batch of high-quality clay bricks into the brick kiln, carried firewood to ignite the fire, sealed the entrance of the brick kiln, and then he returned to the camp to have a meal easily and happily.

Because he didn't need to check, he knew that the batch of burned clay bricks must have qualified quality.

System produced, trustworthy!

...

After dinner, it was already dusk on the island.

The sunset is setting, and the clouds in the sky are stained with fiery red colors.

At this time, the sun had not completely set, and there was still some light outside. Chen Zhe pointed to the direction of the brick kiln and said, "I have burned another batch of new clay bricks. There should be no problem with the ratio this time. Do you want to go and have a look with me?"

After hearing this, Yan'er and the others subconsciously looked at each other.

Because Chen Zhe had said before, it is not easy to mix the ratio of clay bricks. It is almost more difficult to choose a suitable combination from hundreds of unfixed combinations than winning the lottery.

Chen Zhe's last firing ended in annihilation. Will there be a breakthrough this time?

However, the girls all took care of Chen Zhe's face, and even if they had doubts in their hearts, they did not show it on the surface.

Yan'er first said: "Okay, okay, of course we have to go and see it."

Xiao Qiao also encouraged and said, "I think I can definitely burn good bricks this time."

Da Qiao was more rational and did not give Chen Zhe much hope. Instead, he said calmly: "Every attempt is meaningful, the result is not important. What is important is the process of continuous exploration."

Chen Zhe knew in his heart that these three girls were all supporting him, but he was not optimistic about his cooking this time. The more the girls did this, the more interesting he found it.

After a while, they saw that the entire brick kiln was filled with successful clay bricks, their expressions must be very exciting, right?

"Let's go and check it out now."

Chen Zhe pointed to the brick kiln and walked in front to lead the way.

Yan'er and the others followed closely, but they were muttering in their hearts.

"I don't know if Chen Zhe can burn good bricks this time... I feel it's a bit difficult."

"How do you comfort Chen Zhe in a while?"

"Brother Chen has worked so hard. He came to burn bricks again after dinner. Please, please, let him burn high-quality clay bricks."

The four people walked outside the brick kiln, and the fire in the brick kiln had just gone out.

Chen Zhe carefully opened the brick kiln, and then a batch of neatly arranged clay bricks inside were revealed.

What surprised the girls was that the clay bricks burned by Chen Zhe this time were actually very complete, and all the bricks were not broken or cracked, and the quality looked quite good.

"Wow..." Yan'er was already very surprised and said in surprise, "Brother Chen, the clay bricks look very good this time!"

The Qiao sisters were also a little surprised. Xiao Qiao couldn't help but speculate optimistically: "Chen Zhe, have you found the right ratio?"

Da Qiao also smiled and said, "Really, I feel like there is a chance this time!"

Chen Zhe smiled but said quietly, but he was secretly happy in his heart: "The bricks upgraded by the system are indeed excellent. The clay bricks burned according to the ratio given by the system are also top-notch."

When the temperature in the earth kiln dropped, Chen Zhe carefully moved out the batch of clay bricks.

As soon as he touched the clay bricks, Chen Zhe felt that the texture of the bricks this time was different from before.

First of all, it is not as smooth and fine as pottery, but not crispy, so that it will not fall down when it touches it.

He picked up the two bricks and tapped them gently, and conducted a simple collision test - Chen Zhe found that the hardness of these two bricks was also very good, at least they would not break if they were touched.

“Successfully.”

So he proudly announced,

"I've burned qualified clay bricks."

"real?"

After hearing this news, Yan'er and the Qiao sisters were overjoyed.

The three girls did not expect that Chen Zhe would succeed in the second firing. This not only required strength and talent, but also the favor of the goddess of luck!

"let me see!"

"I'll take a look..."

The girls chattered and picked up the clay bricks that Chen Zhe had moved out of the brick kiln and looked at them with great enthusiasm.

Although these heavy and rough building materials are somewhat incompatible with the sweet and cute girls, the high-quality clay bricks and the three girls formed a beautiful island scroll without any inconsistency...
