After a lot of hard work, me and Tara ended up gathering more iron ore than we expected. However, we ran into a problem. With only one furnace, smelting large quantities of iron ore was a slow process. So, to speed up the process, we built two more furnaces with the leftover stone that we had from building the second part of the crafting building.
"This was an excellent idea, Tara," I said.
"Yuppers!" she replied. "This will make smelting the iron ore three times as fast."
Me and Tara were looking at the glowing furnaces, and then it dawned on me that we also needed a lot more hide and leather.
"Well Tara, iron is only one of the materials that we needed," I told her. "We're still gonna need a lot more hide and leather."
"I guess that means we have another busy day ahead of us tomorrow," she replied.
I kissed Tara on the cheek. "You betcha, babe!"
Man, making decent equipment is such a tedious process. It'll be worth it though. Anyways, me and Tara just heading to bed now. We need to get some quality rest because we'll be beginning our hide expedition early tomorrow.
