Chapter 20 Dough Grinder

"My lord, there is no mill, and the amount of black bread is not very large, so it is cooked in bone broth. Wood was in charge of the logistics, he said.

"Hmm. Luo Heng took a bite and felt okay, the wheat grains were very rotten, but considering that the bran had to be eaten by the livestock, and the grain was enough, he was thinking about the mill.

The mills of this world are already very advanced, huge windmills, or waterwheel mills, of course, the mills are still produced by the squeezing of stones from each other, and the refined flour produced is also very low, even if the black bread is sifted out of the combination of the flour left by the fine flour and the fine bran, the rest is all bran, and many poor people add some black bread flour to make coarse bread.

After breakfast, Luo Heng began to design the flour grinder, in addition to the power, the flour grinder also has several aspects of the structure, first of all, the funnel, which stores the wheat grains, and then the valve that borrows the falling speed of the wheat grains, under the valve is a grinding disc for grinding wheat, which can adjust the tightness, of course, you can also add a spiral rotor, and then the rotor is sandwiched on both sides of the scraper, which can scrape off most of the bran, and then the most important thing left is a sieve, something similar to a mixer.

Of course, the more advanced kind Luo Heng slowly improved, and Luo Heng revised it several times, and it was important to take shape.

"Harding, Thordin, build a furnace. "Luo Heng brought a lot of white iron this time, which was refined by the Dwarven Forging Association according to the furnace blowing technology provided by Luo Heng, and of course Luo Heng would not let go of this scarce resource.

So the carpenter and the stonemason began to build a forging house, and Luo Heng optimized the size, but the sieve was only made of the sieve cloth brought from the farm this time, but the sieve cloth was not as good as the metal, but this had to be stamped on the metal with that very small void, Luo Heng thought about it and gave up.

"Is the Duke going to make the mill?" asked Angus, who walked over, glanced at the drawings, and began.

"Yes, do you have any opinions?" Luo Heng asked.

"Actually, the wheat broth is already very good. "Although the wolf bones and internal organs have a fishy smell, this is a Warcraft, even the lowest-level Warcraft meat is several times more expensive than ordinary livestock meat, and for warriors, it is even better.

"Huh. Luo Heng smiled, although there are windmills and waterwheel mills in this world, but the efficiency is still very low, Luo Heng wants to let these people see how great the power of machinery is, and the sieve surface is also a time-consuming thing, but with a mechanical sieve surface, it is not the same.

On this day, everyone rested, there was nothing to do, and the next day was basically recovered, and Gary led the people to continue digging the canals, and selecting the edible plant rhizomes in the silt, and of course there were some delicious things in the silt.

Wood led the men to do logistical work, carrying grain, stacking it, bringing people to feed livestock, and cleaning up the blood left behind by the battle.

This time, Luo Heng used a clay mold, and the carpenter made wood parts, and then cast, of course, the funnel that can be made with an iron hammer or something, there is no need to cast.

The white iron was melted with a crucible and then poured, and the parts of the grinding machine themselves were not very big, but the screw holes were a little troublesome, so Luo Heng had to use some magic metal to make a drill bit and take his time.

Of course, there are screws, nuts, and it is also troublesome to make.

In addition, the casting parts also need to be polished, at least not to expose the flour, and of course you can also add some sealing gaskets and the like.

Five days have passed, and the two-meter-high flour grinder is basically completed, and the power Luo Heng uses a large gear to drive the pinion, as for the strict mechanical design or something, there is no need at all, there is a control valve for the wheat grains to fall, and there is a horizontal handle on the big gear, which can make two orcs hold it at the same time, and then push the flour grinder to grind the noodles.

On the other side, there is a rice beater and the like, a spiral rotor, and then the two sides are scrapers to adjust the size, as for the sieve is not prepared, because this needs to be made on the iron sheet, troublesome, it is better to manually use the windmill to go through it.

Luo Heng adjusted the scraper to be smaller than the wheat grains, then closed the rice threshing machine, and then said, "Let's start." ”

The wheat grains are very dry, and in this environment, it is impossible to say that the wheat grains have humidity, and it is the damage that will be done to oneself, after all, it is one's own family's grain storage, not the public's things.

Woooooooooooooooo

An orc turned the machine the side, the bearing made a whining sound, Luo Heng pulled out the gate a little, and the wheat leaked down from the funnel, and then was pushed by the spiral rotor, and then rubbed against the scrapers on both sides, of course, the lines on the spiral rotor are exquisite.

Soon the other side of the wheat and bran came out, and the bran on the surface of the wheat was basically scraped off.

"No problem. Luo Heng nodded.

Harding and Mordin also learned a lot of things, but the bearings were built by Luo Heng with a magic furnace, mainly because they needed to further refine white iron.

"Harding, you're in charge here. Luo Heng said.

"No problem. Harding immediately patted his chest and said, since it is being built, it is definitely necessary to figure out the principle, and Luo Heng did not hide his secrets.

Then there is the flour grinder, which is erected two meters and two meters horizontally, and there is a big tin bucket on one side, and there is a sieve inside the big tin bucket.

The two orcs stood here, and after the wheat and bran passed through the windmill, there were only wheat grains, and some of the wheat grains were broken, which was a little more humid.

Woooooooooooo

With a whining sound, the two orcs turned the big gear, and the big gear drove the small gear to rotate rapidly, and soon the snow-white flour was exposed under the horizontal iron bucket on the other side, and on the other side of the iron bucket was some bran mixed with flour, which needed to be ground a second time.

"Good. Luo Heng saw the snow-white flour and rubbed it with his hands, which was very delicate.

'He is a master of blacksmithing. Angus also praised that the water-powered mill and the windmill mill have certain limitations, but this does not exist, and the power can be manpower or livestock power, but the cost is a little higher.

"That is, to sell to those nobles, and the commoners cannot afford it. "Jon has some regrets, the business of the nobles is easy to do, but the business still depends on a quantity.

"Nonsense. Luo Heng replied without looking back.

"Cheney, you're made of fine iron, who can afford it?" Jon immediately asked.

"Merchant, one town and one town, don't have to pay processing fees or anything, they can directly exchange wheat for flour, can this business be done, or pay processing fees, how much is the processing fee for a pound of wheat, how can a family have how much wheat to process?" Luo Heng shook his head and asked.

"Huh....... Jon thought about it, yes, merchants can use this to process, and they can be processed anywhere, windmill mills, water-powered mills are generally outside the town, very inconvenient.

"But it's something from our Dwarven Forge Society. Luo Heng saw that Jon was moved, and immediately spoke.

"Hehe, our family can sell it!" Jon also smiled.

With flour, Luo Heng's mind is big, the dough needs yeast, or it can be old noodles, Luo Heng doesn't understand very much, but Luo Heng can make ramen, roll noodles, and make dumplings.

The long winter made Luo Heng's mind focus on eating, and there are chili peppers in this world, and there are many people who eat them, and the winter is too cold.

After a night of hot wolf offal and spicy noodles, the sweat on Luo Heng's face came down.

"Delicious!" Flour is the staple food of this world, but bread takes up a lot of space and noodles are scarce.

Not to mention the lasagna and ramen made by Luo Heng, after several cooks were taught by Luo Heng, they also began to make them.

Where have orcs ever eaten such delicious food, even Alicia eats belly rolling ~ round ~ rolling ~ round, and Luo Heng can't do anything ashamed.

"Jon, how do you have these things?" Luo Heng was a little surprised when he saw Jon take out the items needed to ignite the battle qi.

Jon smiled and said, "You haven't ignited the war spirit yet, and you have enough financial resources, why can't I bring it?"

“......。 Luo Heng really couldn't refute it.

The mill was also managed by Wood, and Luo Heng began to train, striving to reach a peak state of his body, while Angus was in command at all times.

Half a month later, Luo Heng's body finally reached its peak state, ready to start igniting the battle qi.

"Lord Duke, you first feel the battle qi. "Angus let Luo Heng lie on the ground, his body was almost stripped naked, there were some alchemy items on his body, on his head, on his chest, on his belly, and on the soles of his feet, which are said to help ignite the battle qi, and there was a cool feeling on his forehead, which was a magic ornament for soul protection.

After Angus finished speaking, he entered a stream of battle qi into Luo Heng's body, swam for a while, and then withdrew it.

"Do you perceive it?" Angus asked. ’

"Uh-huh, a stream of heat swayed through the body. Luo Heng said.

"That's right, I'm going to swim in your body next, you remember the location, I'll help you urge, as long as you can urge yourself, and then gather these heat streams in your chest, that's it, this can be regarded as igniting the battle qi. Angus has said this more than once.

Luo Heng opened his mouth and said, "Understood." ”

Luo Heng felt that the heat was constantly flowing in his veins, limbs, back, abdomen, except for his brain.

"Internal strength?" Luo Heng muttered in his heart, firmly remembering the running route.

Angus spoke, "I'm going to let go, Lord Duke. ”

This was the most critical time, Luo Heng didn't open his mouth and concentrated.

Luo Heng felt like a novice driver, that heat flow was always uncontrollable, but there were also thrilling swims in the body, one circle, two circles, three circles, and after gradually getting acquainted, Luo Heng decided to put this heat flow into his chest.

Rumble!

This hot current rushed into his chest, Luo Heng felt a sound in his head, this warm current was like entering a certain space, and in this space, as if something was releasing gray light, that hot current directly merged with this gray light.

Half-ringing, Luo Heng opened his eyes: "It's successful." ”

"Yes, Lord Duke, but your talent is not very high, and the fluctuation of battle qi is too weak. Angus shook his head and said, you can know the talent when you ignite the battle qi for the first time, but Luo Heng's body is also a little brighter, and it is still very dim.

Opening the tent, Luo Heng walked out, Alicia and the others looked at Luo Heng, Luo Heng nodded and said, "It's successful." ”

"Congratulations, sir. ”

"Congratulations, sir. Gary, Wood and the others immediately bowed down and said.

"Okay, let's do what we need to do. Luo Heng waved his hand and said, and then everyone left.

Jon asked, "What is it?"

"I don't know, the battle spirit released is too weak. Angus shook his head.

When Jon heard this, he said, "Cheney, do you want to test it?"

"Can you test it now?" Luo Heng asked suspiciously.

"You can also wait for a few days, but at the beginning you need to stabilize the battle qi, and when the battle qi can be released, the test will be accurate, and now the test may not be accurate. Jon spoke.

Luo Heng nodded, Luo Heng stabilized his battle qi next, and the time when it snowed became less and less, and the temperature gradually began to rise.

Luo Heng has always been puzzled, why hasn't anyone contacted him yet?

The flour grinder is very successful, a few orc slaves can process thousands of catties of flour a day, the efficiency is very high, and the metal machinery is very low and low, that is to say, the operation is very stable, unlike the structure of wood and stone.

"Lord Duke, can we go to the woods now?" Kerry saw that the temperature was gradually rising, and he was a little anxious, after the trees cut down in winter were peeled at that time, there would be no moths, and the temperature would not be high.

"Okay, Kerry, you go and get ready, and I'll tell Wood to prepare some dry food. Luo Heng nodded, the castle is still a seven-meter-high wall, which requires a lot of wood, in addition, pastures will be prepared in the future, farms will also be fenced, and roads will be built, etc., wood is the fastest.

Early the next morning, Luo Heng began to assign tasks: "Angus, you stay in the camp, if there is anything for Alicia to inform me with the Golden Eagle, Wood, you are still in charge of logistics, Gary, you take the slaves over there on the col, after the wood is transported back, you will immediately peel the skin, and there will be two carpenters to cooperate with you." ”

"Yes. ”

This time I still have to bother the Dwarven Knights, the rock lizards are the best labor, and hauling wood on the snow is more convenient than after the arrival of spring.

The Dwarven Knights have nothing to say, Luo Heng offered a high price of ten gold coins per person per day, of course, Luo Heng is cheeky and doesn't give gold coins, it's fine.

That is to say, Luo Heng will have to pay two thousand gold coins a day, and there are magicians and Angus in the camp, as well as orc slaves, nothing will happen, plus the dwarf knights come and go.

The mountain forest is not very far from the camp, only about thirteen or fourteen thousand meters, and the trees here are very large.

A huge saw four meters long was taken out by Luo Heng, and Luo Heng was ready when he bought the giant slave.

The saw is thick and wide, giving people the first impression that it is bulky, and Luo Heng has also quenched some gemstone powder on the sharp serrations, which is very durable.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Two giants dragged the two ends, and the two giants were already able to use saws, and they had been training in the camp for a few days in advance.

The tree, which was nearly three meters in diameter, fell down with a bang in just a few minutes.

Then the orc slaves took axes and saws, and began to clear the branches, while the giants broke into knots according to their length.

Tie the rope directly to the tree, this rope cost Luo Heng the price, more than 200 ropes, the price is more than 20,000 gold coins, this is made by the alchemist, don't look at the thickness of a finger, but it is very tough.

The plough is relatively simple, it is a thick plank, put the log on it, and the rock lizard dragged it to the camp, because it is a gentle slope, so it does not take much force.

On average, a big tree fell in ten minutes, and everyone went into battle together, even the dwarves picked up their axes, and the big trees on the hillside fell one after another like wheat, and were peeled off layer by layer.

"Bees, bees. The giant's huge voice rang out.

"Where, where, don't move. When Luo Heng heard this, he immediately rushed over.

PS: 2-in-1 chapter, there are things delayed these days, only come back in the evening and write the release together.
