Chapter 59 The Casting Kettle

The early morning air has begun to bring a little warmth, and the breath of spring has quietly spread to the entire earth.

The busyness in the city did not stop. As soon as dawn, the people in the city began to carry their own farm tools to reclaim the countryside or dig canals. Jingzhou is also a major grain-producing state today. As long as it is not lazy and without military disasters, it is not difficult to survive. Unfortunately, this is a chaotic world.

Looking at those busy figures, Liu Yi didn't know how long this paradise could last. He had forgotten the specific year and month of the Battle of Red Cliff, but since Zhuge Liang had already come out of the mountain, he would not have come for too long.

Ding downstairs is cooking in the kitchen made by Liu Yi. This is not luxurious. It is now filled with the aroma of the food. In an era when cooking is the main cooking method, Deng's craftsmanship is actually not wrong.

Deng Ai sat at the door and was reading aloud. This was his daily compulsory course. Occasionally, Liu Yi would take Deng Ai's books to read. The mother and son now live in the same house as Liu Yi. Deng's mother is good at craftsmanship, and Liu Yi is also happy that there is a woman who can help him cook the meal.

Wangcai lay at Deng Ai's feet, staring at the direction of the kitchen with his eyes wide open. He heard the sound, his ears moved, and then he shouted happily at Liu Yi.

Liu Yi set rules that Wangcai cannot enter the house, and he has to wait for them to finish eating before Wangcai can eat. In short, dogs cannot live better than humans!

"Sir." Deng Ai stood up and politely said to Liu Yi.

"Continue reading." Liu Yi waved his hand. Even though it had been a year since he was still not used to the etiquette of this era. He used to learn how to learn when he was with Zhuge Liang and other nobles, but when he made this trick at his own home, it not only seemed unhuman, but also felt uncomfortable.

Deng Ai will stay here for a while for a while, and Liu Yi doesn't want to live so tiring, so he saves energy and saves all these etiquettes.

"Sir, are you awake? Let's have some food first." Deng's mother came out with a bowl. Little Deng Ai hurriedly ran to help bring the prepared noodles in and put them on Liu Yi's table.

"Eat together." Liu Yi was not polite, sitting behind his table, pointing to the tables next to him, saying that although his small building is the same as other houses, his internal furnishings were made by himself. In order to facilitate the guests, he specially made a few more tables. When there was no one on weekdays, the three of them ate together.

Deng Ai and his son and Liu Yi have been living for a while. They know that Liu Yi is not particular about the details on weekdays. Only when there are guests will they strictly require etiquette. After serving their own meals, they will sit down and eat in small mouthfuls.

"My sister-in-law's craftsmanship is really amazing." Liu Yi took a bite of the dough mixed with meat, and said to Deng's mother.

Thinking about the meals I made when I first came, if I gave them to him now, it would be difficult to swallow. It was only now that he realized that cooking could be made so delicious.

"Sir, you are too proud." Deng's mother shook her head.

Liu Yi didn't say anything anymore, but had a sudden idea. If he had stitched his own stomatology, not just a kettle, but other kitchen utensils, could he make the food made by Deng more delicious? If so, he would have a good taste.

"Sister-in-law, how about I make the oral pot for you later?" Liu Yi looked at Deng's mother and said.

"Why is this?" Deng's mother looked at Liu Yi in confusion: "This pot can still be used."

"The taste is not pure enough!" Liu Yi gave such a bad reason, but when this idea arose, Liu Yi had already made making a pot of himself a thing that must be done today.

The desire to be irresistible for most Han people. There were no conditions before, but now, there are also iron and people who cook. If you can make a pot that can improve the taste of food, your life will be half perfect.

In life, it is nothing more than the satisfaction of the seven emotions and six desires. This desire for belly is the top priority. However, if you make a pot, it is not suitable to use the hundreds of refining methods. You have to fry steel and make a mold. In fact, if you use the frying steel method to make weapons, the efficiency will be faster. It is just that the things you make are not bad, but the help to improve your skills is limited.

Liu Yi was planning to use the steel frying method when mass production was needed in the future, and there was an attribute bonus. Even if the texture was worse than some well-made 100-forged weapons, it was enough for ordinary soldiers.

Since he had an idea, Liu Yi was eating much faster. He kneaded two pieces of bread together and threw them into his mouth in three or five mouthfuls. After drinking the corn porridge in big mouthfuls, he hurriedly said goodbye to Deng's mother and ran to Tiangongfang.

In fact, there is no need to be so anxious. However, when Liu Yi thought that he could actually make a pot for him, even if there was no iron, he could use a pot or even a wooden pot instead. He was a little anxious without expecting it.

Frying steel is not a technical job, but it must withstand high temperatures. It breaks the pig iron into iron sand and then frys it into a semi-liquid state. In a more modern way, this process is called decarbonization. It removes the carbon and other magazines in pig iron to reduce the carbon content. The next process is repeated forging. This section is almost the same as the hundreds of forging method.

Because it was just an iron cauldron for cooking, not a weapon, it was originally not necessary to be forged repeatedly, but in order to make the pot he made play the maximum effect, Liu Yi kept knocking and beating all morning, and even carved the carvings of dragon and phoenixes on the outer side of the pot.

When the three-legged cauldron is formed, it doesn’t look like a cooking utensil, but more like a work of exquisitely crafted art.

Excellent workmanship: Raise wealth and treasure +21, fragrance spreads ten miles +24, endless aftertaste +22, dragon and phoenix present auspiciousness +1

Liu Yi looked at the three-legged cauldron he spent a whole morning creating with satisfaction. The three attributes and all of them were twenty, which was already a good work. But why did a property that attracted wealth and treasures plague it? And what the hell is that dragon and phoenix Chengxiang?

"Brother Yi, are you here?" While Liu Yi was studying the attributes, Liu Sandao, who was responsible for patrolling the city today, walked in, and his eyes were unconsciously attracted by the three-legged cauldron in front of Liu Yi: "What is this?"

"Kao, three-legged cauldron." After Liu Yi looked at it for a while, he picked up the three-legged cauldron and pulled Liu Sandao directly and said, "Let's go, I'll invite you some good things today."

It is still understandable to attract wealth and treasures, but the dragon and phoenixes are a bit unfathomable. Although it doesn’t look like some bad attributes, on the safe side, let’s try new attributes.
