For the next few days, Ling didn't go anywhere, and stayed at home to accompany Lin Qingqing to make soap.

On the stove were two small wooden basins, one full of cemented lard and the other full of powdered plant ash. Ling and Lin Qingqing glanced at each other, put on masks and gloves, and then began to operate.

Ling took the wooden basin and poured a small half of the grass ash into the clay pot, then added an appropriate amount of water, stirred well, and then scooped up a large piece of lard and threw it in, still stirring it with a spoon.

"And then?" Ling turned his head to look at Lin Qingqing and asked, "What should I do next?" ”

Lin Qingqing cautiously approached the clay pot and looked at it, and hesitated: "That's it." There is no shortage of water, oil, and alkali, so when you finish boiling, you should be able to do it, right? To be honest, she only knew that the great god used lard and plant ash for DIY soap in ancient times, and she didn't know anything else.

Ling Dian sighed, thinking to himself, he really couldn't count on his daughter-in-law. This girl knows a little bit about everything, but she can't do everything. Staring at the clay pot intently, Ling Xiang, my brother was also a representative of the chemistry class back then, although he had not been exposed to this knowledge since he went to college. But he believes that he is a talented person in this area! (%>_ If you don't believe it, you can't do it, who will let his daughter-in-law know nothing! ）

Lin Qingqing glanced at her husband silently, and felt guilty for three seconds. The next moment, she held a large bowl of fried crispy bones and happily nibbled on it.

Ling wiped the hot sweat on his head and looked at Lin Qingqing sadly, "Wife, you don't come to help." ”

Lin Qingqing nodded and smiled at Ling Sajiao. "Husband, I'm self-aware. Such a dangerous job is not for me. "Chemistry, who hasn't blown up something. It is as small as a test tube and crucible, and as large as a real room. Thinking about the strange smell he smelled every time he passed by the chemistry building in college, Lin Qingqing felt that this kind of DIY work that requires chemical reactions to succeed really did not fit his temperament.

Ling: "...... is such a dangerous job suitable for me!?"

I have to say that Ling is indeed a talented person. After the bottom and four walls of the village's two manure pits were paved with stone slabs, Ling's soap research also made a breakthrough. At the very least, it has changed from a pot of paste at the beginning to a barely formed solid.

Ling took off his mask and gloves, took the handkerchief handed over by Lin Qingqing, and wiped the sweat beads on his face. Turning his head and looking at the person who came, "What's the matter?" ”

The man smiled at Ling Hanhan. He said loudly: "The two dung pits we dug before have been rested, and Shi will let you go over and see if it's okay." Okay, let's pour a dung ball into it today; No, change it again. ”

Ling was surprised: "It's okay so soon?" It's so cold. Where did you get the stones? It can't be an uphill climb, right? ”

The man waved his hand hurriedly. Explained: "No, no. Didn't go up the mountain. Didn't many of them be empty before, and Shi took us to lift the floor and cellar of those empty houses, and spread all the stone slabs dug up in the manure pit. "At the end of the day. The man's voice was a little low. This winter, there are a lot of people gone!

Ling understood his feelings, reached out and patted the man's shoulder, and he comforted him coldly: "It will be fine in the future." Then he strode out of the house and towards the manure pit to the south.

The man's love is a matter of a few seconds, and it comes and goes quickly. After all, as an indigenous youth, he has to witness such an experience every year, and he is used to it.

Looking up at Ling's unusually tall back against the sun, he grinned innocently, but no, with Ling and Qingqing, the future will definitely be fine!

Standing on the edge of the dung pit and walking around, Ling looked at the smooth and smooth walls and ground, and nodded, "It's pretty good, that's it." After a pause, he added, "Shi, you built this manure pit from the cellar, right?" "In fact, as long as the walls do not collapse, the ground is also made of gravel.

Shi nodded, and said strictly, "That's it." It's a lot more important than the cellar, and of course you have to take care of it. ”

Ling smiled and didn't say much, just said, "Okay, from now on, everyone can pour the dung balls into here after picking them up, the more the better." By the way, you can also pour any burned ashes into your home. Not to mention odor prevention, it can also prevent the proliferation of flies and insects and prevent environmental pollution. ”

Shi nodded and added, "Also, in the future, the feces of each of you will have to be sent here." If I see anyone who is not honest and outside the, and does not pick it up in the, he will be punished! ”

Ling shuddered, and a picture suddenly appeared in his mind: when a rugged and sturdy man was hunting in the mountains, he suddenly became anxious, and when he saw that there was no one around, he secretly pulled a bubble under the big tree, and then was accidentally seen! In order not to let people give themselves out, the man could only hold the hot Xiang with his hands, and then cry all the way down the mountain and throw it into the dung pit!

With that out of the way, Ling went home and researched his soap. And Lin Qingqing, after nibbling on a bowl of crispy crispy bones, also devoted himself to the research of the plough.

Spring is about to begin, and the snow on the ground is already very thin and thin. The men who went up the mountain are now able to bring back a certain amount of prey from the mountain every day, and the men who fish by the river also say that the ice has been getting thinner and thinner recently, and in some places it is not even freezing. And Lin Qingqing also went out one day when he caught a glimpse of the scattered green grass sprouts on the ground.

This qiē shows that spring is really coming!

Since the day when the men were able to bring back their prey from the mountain, Lin Qingqing ran to Shi's house several times. Every time, it is to ask the stones to let the hunting men try to catch the prey alive and bring it down the mountain.

It's time to put her farming business on the agenda.

Before she could do that, of course, she had to map out the location of her future ranch. Chicken nest, pig nest, sheep pen and pigsty, all of them are indispensable!

Shi looked at Lin Qingqing painfully, and said entangledly: "Qingqing, it's not that I don't help you, it's not that I don't know the importance of things, but now there are too few people in our village, and there are too many things to do, so I can't be busy at all." This nest is in a circle, can it be delayed a little? The most important thing now is to take advantage of the fact that the weather is not warm. Turn the ground over. Otherwise, as soon as the ice melts, the insects in the ground will have to run away! "In that case, it will directly affect the harvest in the field.

Lin Qingqing thought about it, nodded directly, and said, "It's okay." You only need to lend me three or five people. I'll start by building a comprehensive pasture and enclosing the prey that is tethered to each of these days. The rest, just wait for the villagers to pour out their hands. ”

As for ploughing the floor? Lin Qingqing pursed her lips and said, "There is only one last step left in the plough, and I will try to finish it in a few days." When it's done, you don't have to worry about turning the ground. "Otherwise, according to the indigenous slash-and-burn farming method. How much effort has to be wasted......

Three or five people is a trivial matter. Shi readily agreed.

After Lin Qingqing received his new assistant, he didn't go home immediately, and took the men together for a small meeting.

"Now, I'm going to show you the general extent of the ranch. Because it's temporary. So you don't have to be very big. As long as it can hold the untamed prey. Well, you still have to separate them in the middle. Otherwise, the Gollum Beast or something like that will definitely be eaten by other prey! "She doesn't want to do the diversification she has worked so hard to do. In the end, only the one at the top of the food chain remains!

The men nodded and asked, "Qingqing, these beasts are very powerful, can they really be raised?" ”

"That's it, how can the beast really listen to us, and let the obedient stay in one place obediently stay in one place?" Another man asked.

Lin Qingqing smiled, reached out and tugged at the hood on his head, and said, "Of course this is true." My people used to be prey. If you want to eat, you don't need to go up the mountain, just take one out of the circle, it's very convenient. "Moreover, the tamed beasts, represented by pigs, are the most successful and will not resist at all!

Although I hadn't heard Lin Qingqing talk too much about her clan, everyone knew that this girl was born in a powerful and wealthy tribe! In addition, Lin Qingqing was regarded as the next wise man by Shi and others, so when she heard her say that it was feasible, everyone didn't question it much. As for trust, it has to wait for the effect to be achieved!

Leaving the range of the house, Lin Qingqing led everyone down the river for more than 100 meters, and then trotted to draw a big circle with his feet, and said: "Just build the ranch here, the minimum must be so big, otherwise the prey will not bloom!" ”

The men nodded their heads one after another, indicating that they understood.

Lin Qingqing looked at everyone with a smile and said, "The matter of the ranch will trouble everyone, I have to catch up with the progress of the plough in the past few days." It's going to turn over the ground, and I can't afford to delay. So here's a matter of qiē, a few of you can discuss it, and I have no opinion. ”

Hearing that Lin Qingqing was studying something related to turning the ground, the men couldn't help but be in awe. This is a man with great ability! worthy of their wise men......

"Then you go and get busy, just have a few of us here to watch." A man spoke, the expression on his face was a little hesitant, "Qing, Qingqing, how high do we have to build our pasture?" "None of them know how to farm, so naturally they don't know anything about the construction of farms.

After patiently setting the work tasks for the men in the next few days, Lin Qingqing trotted all the way home. As soon as I entered the door, I smelled a strange smell.

Looking down at the color of the soap liquid in the clay pot, Lin Qingqing sighed, "Husband, this matter is no longer challenging for you, let's change it." "There's no room for your weird soap anymore. The main thing is that there are still a lot of things to be busy now!

Ling stirred the contents of the pot with a spoon, and said to Lin Qingqing: "This time, the soap is filled with herbs that can remove bacteria and poison. I'd love to try it out. After a pause, Ling said again, "But don't worry, wife, this is the last pot." I have already given Shi the method of making soap, and he will organize the materials and initiate the production in the future. "He doesn't want to take care of any of these idle things.

Lin Qingqing nodded, "That's good." These days, you always make soap at home, and I feel that our house is about to become a professional real room. Since you don't want to get soap, go ahead and do me a favor. ”

Counting the things to be done next with his fingers, Lin Qingqing smiled and kissed Ling's cheek and said, "Husband, there is something that you have to do right now, and you are in a hurry, can you do it?" ”

Tips: When a woman asks you if you can do it, the man doesn't say no. But in fact, to face this kind of question and answer, men still have to honestly say "no". In this way, there will be fewer sins!

As Lin Qingqing said, there is only one last step left, which is the triangle of the plough. In this world where pottery is a precious item, where do you ask Lin Qingqing to find a piece of iron and come back for her girl to take a look?

Ling hugged Lin Qingqing and thought for a while, and said, "Why don't I use animal bones to get one?" ”

Lin Qingqing touched the sleepy tears in the corners of her eyes, and sighed: "Where can I find such a large piece of beast bones!" Besides, it is not easy to cut the bones into the colors and shapes that we like. At least, she felt uncomfortable!

Ling rubbed Lin Qingqing's little face, tightened the person in his arms, and chuckled: "There will always be a way, don't worry." "Although the disadvantages of animal bones are everywhere, but apart from this, there is only wood left. In the end, Ling made up his mind, and he tried both animal bones and wood.

The men are all capable, and before Ling has finished the triangle of the plough, the men's pasture already has a rough prototype.

They sent someone to knock on Lin Qingqing's door, intending to let Lin Qingqing go over and inspect it. Lin Qingqing stretched out his hand and knocked on his drowsy head, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go over and take a look." "Just wake up. I've been so tired lately, she has no strength to cook when she's tired, and all the meals these days have been made by Ling.

The ranch was really built according to the rough idea given by Lin Qingqing, and the height of the fence could reach Lin Qingqing's earlobe, so that there was no fear that the prey would escape when it was not tamed. However, the sturdy wooden stakes still have to be beaten, and the chain will be the credit of Lin Qingqing at that time!

Lin Qingqing patted the man's arm with a smile and praised: "Good job!" I'm satisfied. Your skills are so good, when my big ranch is about to be built in the future, I will ask you to come and help. ”

"That's that, Qingqing wants to build a big ranch, we will all go and help!"

After the temporary ranch is built, Lin Qingqing will notify those who have prey at home, hurry up and hand over the live prey in your hands! If you stay in your hands any longer, you may be hung up one day!

Reaching out and touching the belly of a docile bleating beast, Lin Qingqing shook his head unconsciously, do these people really not know that beasts also eat? I haven't fed it since I brought it back, and this is the rhythm of being starved to death!! (To be continued......)

ps: I'm so sleepy, I keep napping, and I don't know what to write about the pear at the back, is there any confusion......
