Chapter 778 The Amish don't hitchhike
"What are you doing with the axe?" Xiao Peng asked puzzled.
Denzel said, "Neil told us that you did all this with an axe, so we all have the axes ready. ”
Xiao Peng was speechless: "At that time, I didn't have other tools, so I used an axe to do carpentry work on mortise and tenon structures, and I needed a lot of tools." The craftsman uses the magic tools, and the magic tools produce masterpieces, and there are many traditional Chinese woodworking tools. What chisels, planers, ink fountains, shovels, saws, drills, axes, hammers, Luban rulers, etc., I also want to teach you how to make traditional Chinese woodworking tools. ”
Denzel smiled: "Xiao, you can do everything with an axe, and we can too, trust our hands-on ability." ”
Xiao Peng smiled: "Are you sure? Okay, you follow my movements." After speaking, he took the axe and began to teach everyone how to make the mortise and tenon structure, and made it while explaining. Ten minutes later, Denzel and the others raised their hands and surrendered: "Xiao, we are served, you use an axe more dexterously than your fingers! ”
Xiao Peng just wanted to speak, but suddenly scratched his head: "That, Denzel, I still need you to help me with something。。。。。。 ”
Denzel hurriedly said, "Xiao, you can say it. ”
"That's right, I just ate up all the stocks of the Neil family, I can't let the Neil family go hungry, don't 。。。。。。you? Can you send some food to Neil's family?" Xiao Peng said with an embarrassed expression.
Denzel was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and laughed: "Xiao, we Amishi people help each other, this is no problem. ”
Xiao Peng nodded: "That's good, that's good, let's start lecturing." After speaking, Xiao Peng picked up a long piece of wood: "I'll teach you how to make a Luban ruler first." This Luban ruler is a kind of measuring tool with religious colors, which is said to be made by the Spring and Autumn Lu Guogong Losing Class, in fact, the length of the Luban ruler is uncertain, and it is not the usual measurement length. The scale is divided into eight grids, and each grid is divided into a number of small grids, respectively, to write a variety of auspicious and evil words, the content is similar, and the specifications are not uniform. When building a house and making furniture, it is necessary to measure the height, width, and length of each part of the house with this ruler to suit the psychology of praying for peace and auspiciousness。。。。。。 ”
Just do it, Xiao Peng began to give the Amishi people how to make Luban rulers.
These words under the traditional craft has been with the social progress is about to disappear, the ancients made furniture, from the material, material selection, tenon to make the mortise to assembly, all reflect the carpentry master technology, but now the progress of science and technology, what tenon machine saw and other tools appeared, the accuracy is getting higher and higher. Traditional woodworking tools are running out of living space.
Xiao Peng didn't want the traditional Chinese carpentry to lose its inheritance, but it was too difficult to find someone to inherit the craft in China, but this technology was too suitable for the Amish people! Let them carry forward the traditional Chinese woodworking technology。。。。。。 Hey, how can you have a sense of black humor?
In the next ten days, Xiao Peng taught everyone the traditional Chinese mortise and tenon structure process in the Amixu community, and after seeing that everyone had basically mastered the basics, Xiao Peng renovated all the furniture in Neil's house again, and then said goodbye to everyone.
Xiao Peng was very popular when he left, he established a deep friendship with the residents here, and even the children in the community came out to see him off: Xiao Peng was not idle during this time, and when he taught everyone carpenter's craft, he also made a lot of wooden toys for the children, that is, the famous Kong Ming lock, also known as Luban lock.
This is an intellectual toy made of traditional Chinese woodworking, without ropes and nails, completely relying on the connection of its own structure to support and fix together, seemingly simple, but condensed with extraordinary wisdom.
Xiao Peng casually made more than a dozen Kong Ming locks, originally intended to make toys for children, but he didn't expect it to be popular in the Amixu community, Amixu people are not interested in machinery and electronics, but are very interested in woodworking skills. Now almost everyone has a Kong Ming lock, and when they are unlocked, they play differently with their neighbors, uh, it feels like young people in China are holding their mobile phones and playing king pesticides。。。。。。
After promising to visit them again in the future, Xiao Peng rejected Neil's offer to send him in a carriage, and left the Amish community with the honey badger on his back.
is different from the embarrassed appearance more than ten days ago, now he is full of confidence, after all, he got news from Neil and they said that they don't know why recently, Highway 66 is very lively, and there should be no problem with hitchhiking, right?
It seemed to be a very close distance, but in fact, it took more than an hour to walk, and Xiao Peng finally came to Route 66.
"Where are the tourists?" Xiao Peng looked at it, and there was no car passing by, after all, Highway 66 was too long, wait, so he simply sat on his backpack and took out air-dried beef and Xiao Mi from it, and ate it one bite at a time. To say that the amount of food of the honey badger is really not covered, in just a few days, what kind of rats and snakes in the Amixu community almost let it be eaten empty, and yes, it is a big-bellied man again.
However, this also solves the troubles of the Amish people: in the Amish community, rats and snakes are their troubles, and there is no good way to solve them. Every year, people are bitten by snakes or their food is spoiled by rats, and now the trouble is solved!
They're going to erect a statue of 'Xiaomi'!
Xiao Peng just wore a straw hat and wore the clothes of the Amish man that Neil had given him, and sat on the side of the road waiting for passing cars. It didn't take long to really see the car, it seems that Neil didn't lie to himself, there are indeed many tourists, Xiao Peng was ready to wait for a few hours.
Xiao Peng waved to stop the car, but none of the cars stopped, and rushed directly past Xiao Peng, looking like he was racing a car? Highway 66 was converted into a racing track?
Just when Xiao Peng didn't know why, a car in the convoy directly flicked its tail and made a 180-degree U-turn, and it was really not easy to break the pickup truck to make this action! I saw it rush to Xiao Peng's side, brake sharply and stop, and two black people got out of the car and walked towards Xiao Peng.
Xiao Peng frowned slightly, those who come are not good, and those who are good are not coming. Xiao Peng was ready for battle.
How do you know that the black man walked to Xiao Peng's side, saw Xiao Peng's face under the straw hat, his face was ecstatic, but he spoke very politely: "Don't be nervous, we have no malice, and we are not wearing weapons, may I ask, are you Xiao Peng from Huaxia?"
Xiao Peng thought for a moment and nodded. He had already planned, if these two really wanted to attack him, he would simply knock the two of them unconscious, snatch the car and break through! Feeling Xiao Peng's emotions, Xiao Mi also stared at the crotch of the two viciously, ready to attack at any time.
The honey badger is definitely at the level of the god of war and is very good at attacking weak points, for example, the man's little brother。。。。。。
Who knew that after listening to Xiao Peng's answer, the two old blacks cried with joy and hugged each other: "Finally found。。。。。。! ”
Now Xiao Peng was confused: "Hey, what are you doing?" Is this a pair of friends?
One of the black men came back to his senses at this time, and said to Xiao Peng with a smile: "Xiao, introduce yourself, my name is John Wilson, this is Edward Wilson, we are two brothers, we are entrusted by your friend to follow your path here, and now the whole Stars and Stripes are looking for your traces." ”
Xiao Peng also wanted to ask who entrusted them to find him, but the few cars that rushed out just now suddenly ran back. The people who got out of the car directly surrounded Xiao Peng and the others, Hamilton and Vincent saw this, but they became nervous, and protected Xiao Peng behind them: "What are you doing! Xiao Peng was found by us!"
"Hey, Brother Wilson, don't say that, you have a share, don't you?" shouted a strong man.
"Yes, it should be said that we discovered Xiao Peng together. A woman shouted.
Xiao Peng was dumbfounded, what are you doing here? Are you hunting? How can you look at your eyes as if you have found prey? Xiao Peng strengthened his vigilance, and he really can't clean it all up!
John noticed Xiao Peng's movements and hurriedly raised his hand: "Xiao, calm down, we know how powerful you are, we watched the video, dozens of people are not your opponents, and we are not going to ask for trouble." Please believe that we really have no ill will towards you!"
Xiao Peng said coldly: "There is no malice? Do you think I can believe it? What are you doing here? Do you want to divide me? What does it mean that those who see me have a share?"
Edward looked at the situation and hurriedly said, "Damn! Xiao, you misunderstood, don't listen to their nonsense! Here's the thing, your friend Mrs. Sean has a reward of one million dollars, and whoever finds your whereabouts can get this money, these vultures and hyenas are planning to get a piece of the pie from us!"
"Poof. Mrs. Sean paid for herself? Why is this? She should wish she had disappeared? It should be because of Emilia. Emilia should be worried about dying, right?
After thinking about it, Xiao Peng asked Edward, "Since you are here to find me, why didn't you pull me when I took a ride just now?"
Everyone looked embarrassed when they heard this, and Edward said quickly: "Looking at your outfit, we thought it was an Amish." After all, whoever finds you will get rich, won't we? ”
No wonder Xiao Peng thought they were racing just now, they were competing with each other, who saw Xiao Peng first and who got the money?
"Then why are you coming back again?" Xiao Peng curious.
Edward smirked: "Because the Amish don't even hitchhike! smart people make money, don't they?"
