Chapter 294: Smelting brass!
Although Xu Wen's handcrafting is not that outstanding, the audience in the live broadcast room can still tell through the basic shape that this is a monkey.
However, Xu Wen seemed to be addicted. After making this decorative bronze, he seemed not to be very satisfied.
Directly towards the largest piece of copper ore on the ground, he kept waving the iron sword in his hand.
After a period of time passed again, a brand new bronze vessel appeared in front of the audience.
If we say that when they saw the little monkey, the audience in the live broadcast room could still control the excitement in their hearts.
However, after seeing the second bronze vessel, everyone began to no longer believe their eyes.
"Oh my god, this is actually a bronze tripod!"
"Here I go, now I very much doubt that those ancient bronzes were passed down to us by monkeys!"
"If this is a genuine bronze artifact passed down from ancient times, it would be extremely expensive!"
“Did our ancestors accidentally make bronze vessels like this at that time?
Yes, what Xu Wen made this time was indeed a genuine bronze tripod.
But it is a pity that although the basic appearance features are present, there is a lack of historical traces.
Otherwise, if this thing appeared in human society, it would definitely cause a major earthquake in the entire archaeological or historical world!
"Boss, what is this? Why does it look so strange?"
At this time, the monkey group, while Xu Wen was obsessed with artistic creation, had returned to the camp.
It's just that seeing Xu Wen's very intoxicated expression didn't bother him.
Now, after seeing Xu Wen come out of that state, the monkeys were finally able to end their somewhat painful endurance.
"For us, this thing can only be used as a cooking utensil, such as a pot."
"However, if it were placed in the outside human society, I am afraid that those humans would directly rob it."
"By the way, their looting is exactly the same as your behavior and mood when you see the barbecue!"
Perhaps in order to allow the monkeys to better understand the status of bronzes in the hearts of the people of the Dragon Kingdom, Xu Wen actually used barbecue to describe it.
If some more pedantic and conservative scholars outside heard Xu Wen's description of bronzes, they would probably just raise the crutches in their hands and run to this forest to fight Xu Wen!
"Ah, I didn't expect those humans to regard a pot as so important!"
However, what Xu Wen never expected was that the monkeys completely misinterpreted his meaning.
However, after carefully reviewing this sentence, we can indeed find that it is not unreasonable.
After all, the Dragon Kingdom is a country where food is the most important thing for the people, and everyone will regard the pot as so important!
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Now quickly light up the fire. Next, we need to process these copper ores!"
Immediately, Xu Wen withdrew from his thoughts and looked at the copper ore on the ground with a very expectant look in his eyes.
For Xu Wen now, only by refining the copper metal can he further implement his next series of plans.
After hearing Xu Wen's order, there was no need for Xu Wen's supervision at all. The monkeys quickly raised the fire under skilled operation.
"Put the copper ore in!"
Looking at the raging fire burning in the furnace, Xu Wen directly asked his followers to throw all the copper ore into it.
Suddenly, all the copper ores began to undergo their own journey of transformation in this strange environment.
"Boss, is the process of smelting copper the same as smelting iron?"
Listening to the painful sound that the copper ore in the furnace kept emitting, Hou Da asked curiously.
After all, up to now, the various tasks performed by the monkeys are no different from smelting metallic iron.
"Of course, the smelting processes of these metals are basically the same."
"After being burned by the high temperature of the fire, they all evolved into a liquid state and then began to plasticize!"
Looking at the beating flames, Xu Wen answered the monkey group's questions somewhat absentmindedly.
In fact, what Xu Wen didn't know was that the reason why the monkeys raised such a question was mainly because they knew that these were two completely different metal ores.
Therefore, they also believe that different metal ores must have different features. If we use our current words, each metal ore has its own characteristics.
Moreover, based on this difference in characteristics, the smelting methods used should also be different.
"Tick tock!"
Just when Xu Wen was lost in thought, the sound of some liquid falling suddenly came out of the stove.
After hearing this sound, Xu Wen originally wanted to remind the monkeys to use a blower to increase the intensity of the fire.
However, without even saying a word, the monkeys kept shaking the handle of the blower very consciously.
"Hoo ho ho!"
At this time, the fire once again showed its most ferocious side.
The falling speed of the copper ore inside is also accelerating as the intensity of the fire increases.
After a while, all the sounds in the furnace disappeared, except for the sound of the roaring fire.
"Boss, it should be almost done now. Do you still need catalysts such as bone powder?"
Looking at Xu Wen, Hou Da asked again. After all, in the last smelting process, Xu Wen used something like bone meal.
"For copper smelting, we don't need these things at all."
Looking at the copper ore in the furnace that had completely turned into liquid, Xu Wen said with a trembling corner of his mouth.
"Okay, take out all the liquid inside!"
With an order, the monkeys took out the copper water that was still boiling inside.
It's just that the current copper ore has completely lost its previous green color. It is no different from the previous molten iron. It is completely red in color.
"Pour all this copper water into this!"
Immediately, Xu Wen took out a stone tool that had been prepared before.
