Chapter 0080: The Beginning of a Refined Diet
"Dough knife, elongated, with gears on the surface, similar to the gears of the mechanism of the winch of the large oak gate. First, put the two dough knives in the fixed chute, first adjust the bite distance of the two dough knives, and then fix the two dough knives with a buckle, and the chute can adjust the size of the gap between the two dough knives that bite each other. If the size is large, the noodles will be thick, and if the size is small, the noodles will be thin. ”
"The kneaned dough is placed on top of the dough knife, and the rocker with gears is shaken, and the gears on the rocker drive the gears of the dough knife, so that the two dough knives rotate inward, and thin noodles are produced one by one from under the dough knife. ”
"Catch the noodles with a noodle rod, cut them to the appropriate length, cut them with scissors, hang them in the sun to dry, and then use a knife to cut the noodles into a certain length, tie them with a clean cloth belt or silk ribbon, and tie them with two catties, five catties, or ten catties, and place them in the grain warehouse and eat them at any time. When eating, boiling water can be boiled for a short time, this delicacy can only be eaten with chopsticks from the West. Knives, forks, and knives are useless. ”
Master Tob was stunned when he heard this.
Magic Mountain looked at the master's expression, expected, and didn't care at all.
"Master, have you ever eaten noodles?"
Master Tob shook his head, his movements stiff and mechanical.
He ate a lot of black bread and never ate noodles.
Black bread, rough and primitive food culture, is too far from the refined food culture of China.
Noodles are eaten only when there are servants and professional chefs in aristocratic families, and they are thick and short. It's more like a noodle than a piece of noodles, and because it's too thick, the texture is naturally not good, but compared to a variety of bread that is tired of eating, it can improve the taste of the aristocracy, and I think it's very good.
However, the kind of rough and primitive so-called noodle noodles are not comparable to the refined noodles of the Magic Mountain, which are several levels higher than civilization.
The limitations of the times determine the height of civilization, and of course also include food.
The more progressive the society, the higher the degree of civilization, and the more refined the division of labor; The more refined the food civilization, the more advanced it is, this is certain.
Chopsticks are a symbol of the Chinese dragon that has never been eliminated and the most food culture through the original primitive civilization, agricultural civilization, industrial civilization, and modern scientific and technological civilization, and its practical history of thousands of years has been proven to be applicable to any civilization and beyond the limitations of any food civilization.
Magic Mountain knows this well and thinks it is true.
Master Tob had never heard of noodle knives and had never eaten noodles. And any of the great nobles in this world, the king and the prince, although they have eaten noodles, have never seen a refined noodle and noodle knife mechanism several levels higher than civilization.
The level of wrought iron in this world has been able to produce noodle knife machinery, without the need for electric and hand-cranked rockers, relying on gears to drive the rotation of noodle knives, can produce completely refined noodles.
As for the gear device, the principle of the lever, this world has been applied to the mechanical opening of the giant city gate with iron edge.
When there are chopsticks, the artifact of food civilization, in the low-end civilized world, all refined high-level food civilization has real possibilities.
Salt was an absolute monopoly of the royal dukes, but wheat flour was not. With wheat flour and noodle knife machinery, fine noodles are easily a reality.
The mechanical knowledge that the university polytechnic dog that crossed the magic mountain for several years was not all returned to the teacher.
The hand-cranked noodle machine is mechanically simple. Even a piece of iron, with a dozen tiny holes drilled into it, can produce rice noodles in no time.
Next, Master Tobu became a primary school student, and listened to Moshan tell him the principle of dough knife and the manufacture of molds with a confused face. It was the first time that Master Tobu had heard of chopsticks, and even if the magic mountain broke a branch into two sections, he didn't seem to understand it.
What the Magic Mountain said was something that Master Tob had never heard before. But the master had a foundation, and it didn't take long for Master Tob to get started.
The master has also done the winch machinery of the city gate, and is no stranger to the principle of the gear turning through the rope to drive the city gate to rise. The same goes for the noodle knife, which can drive the rotation of the two noodle knives with a single rocker, and then the very small gap between the noodle knife and the noodle knife can produce noodles that he has never seen or heard of.
Moshan told him that the noodles were boiled raw and whatever he wanted.
And the technology of storing food in this world is at its peak. Because the winter can come for ten consecutive years, people have to rely entirely on stored food to survive this long winter. Finished noodles can also be stored for a long time.
In the evening, the group stayed in the small town of Egger in the territory of the Chariot family in the West.
As soon as he had eaten, Master Tobu knocked on the door of the Magic Mountain.
He came in in a daze, followed by a puzzled Gendry.
Moshan knew that Master Tobu had come to ask him how to draw the mechanical drawings of the noodle knife. The master is already completely fascinated.
To make a machine, you must first have drawings.
The drawings are in the heart of the Magic Mountain.
And Tob seems to have completely forgotten the horror of the Magic Mountain, and as soon as he enters the topic, he forgets everything.
The noodle knife, a noodle knife machine that has never been heard of, deeply attracted Master Tob. Although he is a master of weapons and armor in this world, he is limited by his own low level of civilization, and his many mechanical insights are far inferior to those of the Magic Mountain.
As for why the Magic Mountain came up with such a strange but workable mechanism, it was not in the consideration of Master Tob at all, his focus was only on mechanical manufacturing, and other things had nothing to do with him.
After achieving the pinnacle of success in the industry, Master Tob lost interest in creating the same sword armor, and what he really liked was the more complex and elaborate mechanism. Building weapons is his job to earn a living, a job he has done to the top of his peers, and it is also the peak of his own. The new Wonder Knife of the Magic Mountain gave him a new direction and activated his already lazy life.
Magic Mountain removes many things such as electric motor roller slides, and only gives the dough knife, an iron frame triangle that fixes the dough knife, a chute design that jams the dough knife, and a hand stick with gears.
When he walked to the territory of the Klegon two days later, Tob had lost all his fear of the Magic Mountain, and was only focused on perfecting the various details of the noodle knife. Now that he has fully understood the requirements and ideas of the Magic Mountain, all that remains is his actual work - the manufacture of dough knife molds.
Everyone has a favorite kind of work, and building new machines is Tob's favorite, and he has a talent for it.
When the Magic Mountain group returned, outside Fort Klegan, his father-in-law, Earl Gavin, his fiancée Jenny Westerling, Mrs. Allen, the kitchen officer, Julie Clegane, the adopted daughter, Harry, the bachelor, Thomas Mann, the stables officer, the notepad of the general secretary of Fort Krigan, and the people of the territory who were helping to build houses in the village of Klegan after finishing their farm work, all came out to greet them.
