Within the Qingque tribe, Carpenter Climb has been in a happy mood these past few days. His whole body felt like he had been beaten to death, and he was as powerful as a dragon or a tiger.

This is not only true in the carpenter's room, but also when returning to the place where you live to sleep at night.

Even Tietou and Heiwa, who lived next door to Lame, who were much younger than Lame and had been the most troublesome in the tribe in the past, felt a little ashamed of themselves.

Of course Lame was excited. Under the command of the Son of God, the ink fountain made was so easy to use.

After using it at work, not only does it become faster to make things, but also the various accessories produced are more regular according to the lines that pop up from the ink fountain.

Under such circumstances, it would be strange if Lame was not excited.

Inspired by new tools like the ink fountain, it was originally expected to take at least five days to build the body, but it only took three and a half days to finish it.

At this time, Han Chenggong, accompanied by Lai, was looking at the brand new donkey cart body.

I have experience in making sledges, so there’s not much to say about the overall body, it’s very good.

The place that really needs to be looked at is where the wheels are to be installed. This is where the skills are put to the test.

"Here, after the wheels are made, use an ax to saw these things and dig out a semicircular groove to jam the axle..."

Han Cheng looked at it carefully for a while, then made a careful comparison with the body of the ox cart in his memory, and then gave some suggestions on how to deal with it.

After staying here for a while, Han Cheng left and went to the pottery making place to see how the Heiwa molds were being made.

As for Lame, after making certain modifications to the body of the newly manufactured donkey cart according to Han Cheng's advice, he began to make wheels.

The wheel needs two circles, one large and one small. The large circle is on the outside and the small circle is on the inside. The two circles need to be connected to each other with hard bars.

The big circle on the outside will become a rolling surface in time, while the small circle on the inside will become something connected to the axle.

What Lai is currently making is the big circle on the outside. As for the small circle on the inside, we need to wait until Hei Wa and the second senior brother make the bronze sleeve before making it.

In this way, the wooden ring and the bronze sleeve can be tightly connected together and not easy to loosen.

Mao Er and other young apprentices were there holding axes or planes and making car strips seriously...

The sunshine at noon in summer falls on the ground and falls on people's backs, leaving a scorching temperature behind.

Even hotter than the scorching sunshine is the furnace used by the Qingque tribe to smelt bronze.

After nearly ten days of production, Heiwa, with the cooperation of Yuan Yuan and other potters, finally produced a batch of bronze axles and bronze sleeves, which are molds for things that require high accuracy.

After confirming that the molds were completely dry and ready to pour bronze juice into them, the second senior brother, who could not wait for a long time, immediately lit up the copper-smelting stove with the other helpers, and poured the copper and tin according to these two rules.

I figured it out in 2001. I can get the ratio of the hardest bronze alloy and put it into the furnace inside. Then I turn the large wind gulu and continue to fan the fire at the furnace...

After the copper and tin in the furnace were completely melted and blended together, the second brother took the installed wooden-handled ceramic crucible to get the bronze juice from the inside out, and carefully but quickly poured it into the placed mold.

…

"Crack!"

"Crack~"

After the bronze juice cooled and solidified, Han Cheng, Hei Wa and others began to use violent means to break some molds that could not be used again.

As the outer molds cracked one after another, the shining golden light was also revealed from the inside.

The copper rings are small and easy to pour. The most difficult thing to pour is the four 1.3 meter copper rods.

Because of its large size, too much copper liquid is required, and it needs to be poured all at once, otherwise faults will occur, affecting its firmness.

In order to cast these copper rods that will be used as axles, Han Cheng, Hei Wa, Second Senior Brother and others spent a lot of effort.

Not bad, not bad!

Looking at the four bronze sticks in front of him, which were shining with golden light and could be turned into Ruyi Golden Cudgel with some words engraved on them, Han Cheng had a look of relief and joy on his face.

Such big things are rarely cast in the tribe. Now that these four copper rods were cast successfully at one time, Han Cheng was certainly happy.

After confirming that the four copper rods were intact, Han Cheng picked up the copper sleeves from the ground and put them on the copper rods.

As a result, the first copper sleeve could not be put on the copper rod. Seeing this scene, Hei Wa's face turned a little green.

Fortunately, the second copper sleeve fits on top just right.

These models are all handmade by Heiwa. Even if they have standard sizes, there will inevitably be some errors during production.

Regarding this point, Han Cheng and Hei Wa were mentally prepared when they started doing this, so they directly made twelve copper sleeve molds.

After some testing, nine of the twelve copper sleeves were usable, and of the three that were discarded, two were too large and one was too small.

But the remaining nine are enough for use. Four axles, one axle with two, there is still some left.

At this time, Lai had already made three large circles. As for the car strips, the apprentices had also made quite a few.

After learning that the bronze sleeve was cast, we immediately started making the small circles inside.

As for the cast bronze sleeves, they were directly embedded in small wooden rings.

In the next few days, the carpenter's room became the most attractive place in the Qingque tribe.

Those minors would run here when they had nothing to do. Those who were weeding crops in the fields outside, the first thing they did when they came back was to look at the carpenter's room to see how the donkey cart was progressing.

Even if you can't see it, it's good to hear a word or two from others.

"The wheel strips are on!"

"The strip of the other wheel is also installed!"

"When Mao Er smashed the copper nails on the wheel, he almost hit his hand..."

Under the tireless publicity of these small propaganda loudspeakers in the tribe, one can know the progress of the donkey cart even without going to the carpenter's room.

"Jingle bell!"

When the last copper nail fixing the rail is smashed into the wheel, the two wheels are completely finished.

Then, under the watchful eyes of Han Cheng, Wu, Senior Brother and others, Lai and Heiwa, who looked a little excited, brought an axle over and inserted it into the copper ring between the two wheels one by one. The two unrelated wheels were thus connected.

Connect together.

After another period of clanking and knocking, the two wheels were firmly fixed on the axle.

"Son of God!"

Lame put down the ax in his hand and looked at Han Cheng, looking a little excited and shouting. Han Cheng also looked a little excited and walked to the wheel with many shining copper nails on it.

Of course Han Cheng was excited, because since he was seven or eight years old, he had never pushed the family's bullock cart around the yard to play. Now that he had to go back to his old job, how could he not be a little excited?

Han Cheng first had some melted animal fat oil brought over and poured a lot of it between the axle and the copper ring to act as a lubricant to reduce the friction between the axle and the copper ring.

After finishing, he bent down and held the axle with both hands. Then, under the watchful eyes of everyone in the Qingque tribe, he exerted force on his feet and started the wheel-pushing game that he had played for a while when he was a kid.

As Han Cheng exerted his strength, the two wheels began to roll on the ground.

The respected Son of God bent down to push the cart... This heroic scene of pushing the wheel made the minors in the Qingque Tribe see their eyes shining brightly, looking eager to try.

Even the adults in the tribe, watching this scene, had the idea of ​​​​going on to fight in person.

Because this looks really fun.

Under everyone's envious gaze, Han Cheng, who pushed the wheel around the open space, stopped.

"This wheel is unstable and swings from side to side when pushed. It needs to be reinforced."

Under the expectant gazes of senior fellow apprentices Lame and Heiwa, Han Cheng pointed to the wheel on the left and said.

So a few lame people jingled for a while to reinforce the wheel.

After doing this for a while, Han Cheng bent down and pushed the wheel again to conduct the experiment.

This time nothing wrong was found.

"Put the car body on and have a look!"

Han Cheng, who felt that there was no problem with the wheel, let go of the wheel and said to Lai and others.

After waiting for this order for a long time, everyone immediately took action after hearing the words. Several pairs of big hands were placed on the body of the donkey cart that had been built for several days. Without any effort, they lifted it up and put it down.

On top of the axle.

After a few moves, the round axle got stuck into the groove that had been dug out under the donkey cart.

After moving the body to make sure that the distance between the body and the wheels on both sides was the same, following Han Cheng's order, a few people began to fix the body and wheels with leather ropes, sticks and copper nails.

The fixation between the body and the wheels is very important, otherwise the donkey pulls the cart and gallops on the road, and then when it is running happily, the wheels of the cart will detach from the body and wander alone.

The donkey, on the other hand, was carried by the vehicle body without the wheels, and fell over in the ditch on the side of the road...

Thinking about this picture makes people feel very beautiful.

After another lot of work, the body and wheels were firmly connected together.

After confirming that everything was OK, Han Cheng asked people to put the wooden car panels on the body. In this way, a complete deer cart was successfully produced.

At this time, the senior brother had already brought over the tallest and most powerful donkey in the tribe. After seeing Han Cheng nodding, he led the donkey over to hitch the cart.

There are sledges, columbians, and bronze plows, and the people in the tribe are no strangers to similar carts.

The donkeys in this tribe have become more tame after experiencing spring plowing, and have become more skilled at pulling carts. There is no abnormality when being pressed by a fresh donkey cart.
