Dini had made up his mind to make pottery, so he said to Frey and Margie,"Then let's make some equipment that won't burn out today. This kind of tool is called pottery."
Margie looked excited." Alright, alright. What do you want to make this pottery with?”
"Use this mud," said Di Nai.
There was still a lot of mud left from Frey, and Dini was going to use it to make pottery.
" I made a basin out of mud," said Maji." It can't hold water, nor can it be put on the fire.”
"That's because your method lacks the necessary steps," said Di Nai. Let's make pottery first. We use mud to make all kinds of things that can hold water.”
Because the mud was not hard enough, Dini asked Frey to go to the river to find some fine sand and mix it into the mud. Then, the three of them worked together. Under Di Nai's guidance, they made the mud into mud pots, mud cups, mud bowls, mud basins, and so on.
Because there were no conditions to cast, they could only use the most primitive method, which was to pinch the mud into strips and pile them up. In the beginning, it was really not well-formed, but it slowly got better.
Di Nai's childlike innocence flared up, and he kneaded the mud into all kinds of strange pottery.
Maji was also very happy and had a lot of fun. In the end, she was almost addicted to it and was unwilling to stop. Even when he used up the last bit of mud, he was still a little unsatisfied.
Because the surface of each pottery base had to be made very flat, it took a lot of effort to make the finished product.
Dini asked Frey to place the finished pottery in a corner.
Di Nai said that the pottery must be dried in the shade. If it was exposed to the sun, it would crack, so the rest of the steps could only be done tomorrow when the pottery was dry.
Maji, on the other hand, looked like she was eager to finish the job immediately. She was a little disappointed when she heard this.
Because it was almost night again, Di Nai remembered the sounds he had heard last night and decided to install a door in the cave.
He asked Frey to chop some bamboo and start making a fenced door.
Fortunately, it was easy. Margie and Frey helped and it was done very quickly. Di Nai put the door outside the cave, preparing to use it to block the entrance at night.
Di Nai simply made the remaining bamboo branches into brooms.
When Margie saw the broom, she swept the ground with it curiously for a long time, and the cave was clean.
At this time, the sky was already dark. Frey continued to start a fire on the wooden rack to roast meat. Di Nai poured the deerhorn glue that had been boiled in the helmet into a clean bamboo tube, and then poured the remaining deerhorn frost into another bamboo tube. He only took out a piece of deerhorn frost, crushed it with the handle of a dagger, and drank it with wine.
After eating, everyone was a little tired, so Margie and Frey left early and went back to sleep. Before they left, Frey helped to block the bamboo gate at the entrance.
He didn't know if it was a psychological effect or if the door really had some effect, but this time, Di Nai didn't hear any strange sounds and finally had a good sleep.
The next morning, Frey and Maji came over early. On this day, Di Nai still wore his camouflage uniform. Although he did as the locals did, he was really not used to wearing animal skin. He also had to be careful not to reveal his body, which made him feel suffocated.
It was the first time Maji saw Di Nai in a camouflage uniform. She was greatly surprised and surrounded him, looking left and right, praising him for his good looks. He also said that he wanted to make animal skin into clothes of this style.
Di Nai said," Alright, give me a set when it's done. I'll exchange some good things with you."”In his heart, he felt that it was too difficult to make animal skin into clothes. After all, they used bone needles and hemp thread, and there were no scissors to use.
Remembering that he still had a few bundles of needle and thread, he took a roll of thread and a pin from his aluminum lunchbox and handed them to Marge. Then he remembered that he couldn't do it without a knife, so he took out his multi-purpose folding knife from the lunch box.
After a simple demonstration by Dini, Margie took the folding knife and jumped up in joy. He said,"This thing of yours is too good. Don't worry, I'll definitely make a beast skin coat for you as soon as possible."”
"Thank you in advance, then."”
Before Di Nai could wash up, Frey had used a bamboo tube to get some water for him to wash up. He didn't realize that he no longer thanked Frey and began to enjoy Frey's care with a clear conscience.
After washing up, the three of them sat down to eat.
Frey had learned his lesson this time. He used animal skin to bring some fruits and bird eggs for them to eat.
There were many fruits, papaya, apples, mangoes, grapes, and bananas. There was still dew on the fruit. It seemed that Frey had gone to the jungle to pick it early in the morning.
Margie thought that Frey was really considerate. If only Heda could be so considerate. It was impossible. Heda was a fool. However, when he thought of the small animals that Hedda had sent over yesterday, he became happy again.
" Wow, so many fruits." Dini was also very happy." Frey, did you go to pick them this morning?" You're back so soon. You're really capable.”
Frey didn't say anything either. He just watched Di Nai eat dotingly.
Di Nai didn't feel anything and ate heartily. When he saw Frey looking at him, he reflexively called for Frey to eat the fruit too.
On the other side, Maji couldn't be bothered to finish her food and started shouting,"Di Nai, hurry up. Let's make pottery.”
Di Nai was amused.”
Maji ran over and shouted again,""I'm done, I'm done.
Di Nai was helpless. He seized the time to finish the last bite of the apple and began to work. He cleaned the stove that he had built yesterday and dug a deep groove in the ground near the stove's mouth with a dagger.
Frey wanted to come over and help, but Dini waved his hand, indicating that there was no need. Even though his foot was injured, he could still handle such a small matter.
He asked Frey to cut the wood into a short piece that could be stuffed into the stove and piled up. Then, he put a few dried pottery bricks into the pile on the firewood. The stove was not too big and could not hold many things.
After putting the pottery into the stove, Di Nai stared blankly at the stove opening, thinking, What should I use to seal the stove opening?
Maji had been staring intently at Di Nai's operation. Seeing that he was in a daze, she asked,"What's wrong?"
When Di Nai explained what he meant, Maji understood."I have a stone slab. It's relatively thin and just a little wider than this stove. Frey, come with me to get it.”
Soon, the stone slab was brought over. As expected, the size was just right. It was not too heavy and could not crush the stove. Di Nai used a stone slab to seal up the opening of the stove, leaving only a small hole for ventilation. Then, he lit the firewood and put it in.
The fire began to burn fiercely in the stove.
"How long will this burn?" asked Maji.”
Di Nai thought for a moment and replied,"It should take half a day!"”
"Ah, so long. I'll go back and make clothes first. He would come back later for lunch.”Margie couldn't sit still anymore.
Frey also wanted to go hunting.
Thus, the two of them left, leaving Di Nai alone to pull out the firewood and add firewood.
Di Nai was a little bored, so he chose a longer bamboo tube from the pile of bamboo tubes that Peg had brought over and prepared to cut it open to make bamboo chopsticks.
The chopsticks made of willow branches always tasted sour in the mouth. Bamboo was still better.
He carefully cut open the bamboo tube with a dagger, turning it into a few bamboo boards. He then slowly divided the bamboo boards into thin chopsticks, and then used the dagger to grind the chopsticks neatly.
Ten pairs of chopsticks were done, and more than half of the time had passed.
During this time, an orc named Brenda came to Dini's cave and gave him a bunch of flowers.
Di Nai's face darkened as he looked at the bunch of unknown flowers that looked incomparably bright.
Do I look like someone who likes flowers and plants? When I was in the army, I could kill a cactus. I have a grudge against flowers and plants!
However, looking at the beastman's huge body, holding a large bouquet of flowers and handing it to him with a silly smile, he really couldn't refuse.
However, on second thought, could this flower have any special meaning? At that time, if she had to be someone else's wife because she had foolishly accepted the flowers, it would be a huge loss.
So he asked Brenda if there was any special meaning to the flowers.
Hearing Brenda say that she had only seen the flowers in the jungle and picked them for him, Dini was relieved. Hence, she thanked him and kept the flowers.
The orc saw that he had taken the flower and happily turned 180 degrees on the spot, jumping away.
After returning to the cave, Di Nai looked at the large bunch of flowers, not knowing what to do with them. There were no vases in this era, and he did not have the time to raise them. He might as well pile them in the corner. Therefore, the poor flower could only face the wall there.
Three hours later, Margie couldn't help but run over. Maji saw the flowers in the corner at a glance. He quite liked them. He picked them up and sniffed them again and again."Where did this flower come from?"
"Brenda gave it to me," said Di Nai."If you like it, you can have it!”
It seemed like Maji really liked flowers, so she didn't refuse.""Alright, then I'll accept it without hesitation.”
Frey had also returned from his hunt. This time, he had hunted a pheasant and a young buck. Di Nai took a look. The two horns of the fawn had not turned into horns yet. They were both antlers!
This was the first time he saw a real antler in real life. He was so excited that he shouted,"Ah, antler, it's actually real antler!”He roared in his heart. How valuable! These two complete branches, if I bring them back to the modern world, they would be worth at least tens of thousands. That way, I'll take another big step closer to the rich class.
Frey was also very happy to see Dini so excited. It seemed that he had made the right choice in hunting young deer this time. It was every male's responsibility to make the female he liked happy!
Frey turned around and saw the flowers in Margie's hand. He asked who sent them. Margie rushed to say that Brenda gave them to Dini, but Dini gave them to him.
When Frey heard this, he immediately felt a sense of crisis, so he asked Dini,""Di Nai, do you like flowers?" He planned to pick a big bunch of them every day and give them to Di Nai if he said he liked them.
However, Di Nai shook his head.”
Frey was relieved.
Di Nai carefully cut off the antler and placed it on the stone. He looked around with great fondness.
Maji was getting impatient from the fire and asked Di Nai,""Is the pottery not done yet?"
Di Nai estimated that the pottery was almost done, so he asked Maji to stop the firewood.
Margie said excitedly,"Well, well? Are you done?"
Di Nai said," We still have to wait. Let it cool down slowly. We'll take it out when the temperature drops. Let's eat first."
Frey saw that it was not done yet, so he asked Dini for a dagger and took the rabbits that Heda had hunted yesterday and the pheasants that he had hunted today to the river to deal with. The young deer would be saved for dinner.
Margie had nothing to do, so she just went around in circles. He went around and around, almost making Di Nai dizzy.
Fortunately, Frey returned very quickly and started to roast the pheasants and rabbits. Margie also went over to help.
After a while, Di Nai went to check the temperature of the stove again. When he found that it was about right, he removed the stone slab and carefully took out the pottery. Out of the six pieces of pottery, one of the large pots was cracked, but the rest were intact. However, the surface of the pottery was very rough. Although some of them did not crack, there were still cracks on them. Di Nai's face was filled with black lines. If such a thing was on Earth, who would be willing to buy it?
Frey and Maji each held a ceramic bowl in their hands and praised.
Di Nai thought that no matter what, the production was basically successful now. He just didn't know if it was durable or not. So he said,"Let's test it out and see how this pottery works."”
"How?" Margie asked excitedly.”
