In the past, saws, planers, axes, chisels, rulers, and ink fountains were commonly used tools by the old carpenters in the village.

Carpenters don't need a chainsaw at all, and a simple saw can break down wood into flat planks.

But with the progress of the times, new tools such as table saws, hand-held chainsaws, square tenon machines, and sand belt sanding disc machines have appeared, and these steps can be completed directly through the machine.

"These old guys haven't used it for a while, and it's still so easy to hold in your hand!"

Li Dajiang took out a cowhide bag from the pile of sawdust, took out various old carpenter's tools, and said with a smile.

"Haha, I still have an impression! Every time I see the second uncle coming back from outside with a cowhide bag, I know that there is candy to eat!"

Li Changqing recalled that as long as Li Dajiang went out to work, he would wait for the candy at the entrance of the village in the evening and smiled.

"Yes, how easy it was for people to be satisfied at that time, a white rabbit could be excited for days!"

Li Dajiang turned off the table saw, moved an old bench from the beam, and replied.

"Second uncle, do you still have this stool?", Li Changqing looked at the bench that Li Dajiang used to do carpentry work and said in surprise.

"Hehe, I can't bear to use it!", Li Dajiang said as he stroked the bench.

"I miss my second aunt again...... , there are not many people like you these days!", Li Changqing muttered quietly.

"Let's get down to business, it's still very simple if you just want to learn carpentry, but if you want to become a real carpenter, you need time to accumulate!", Li Dajiang began to demonstrate Li Changqing with old tools.

"Uh-huh!", Li Changqing watched with great interest from the side.

In the mountain village, every time a girl is married, the mother's family must marry dozens of chairs, so the carpenter has the most work to do the chair.

Li Dajiang started from how to use a saw to untangle the wood, to planing the material with a planer, and then to punching holes with a chisel.

Li Changqing witnessed the whole process of turning a pile of wood into a chair from the sidelines, thinking about the usefulness of each step.

Then Li Dajiang mainly showed Li Changqing how to break down wood into the materials he wanted, without talking about any problems of how to do it.

"Have you learned?", Li Dajiang asked.

"Understood!", Li Changqing replied.

"Well, just get it! Practice makes perfect, just do it a few more times!", Li Dajiang smiled very satisfied.

"Understood" means knowing the reason for doing so, and "knowing" means that you can do it well!

Li Dajiang's teaching is not a simple cramming, but makes you think about why you do it.

Take the most common wooden chair as an example, before making it, you should think about why you make a wooden chair?

What is the function of a wooden chair and how does it reflect this role?

When you think about these questions, you can use the tools of the old carpenter to make what you want.

"Second uncle, you are such a good teacher!", Li Changqing said very sincerely.

"Haha, the first time I met your second uncle, these old guys gave it to you, and the bench was carried away!"

Li Dajiang took a deep breath of cigarette, pointed to the cowhide bag and the bench and said with a smile.

"Okay, anyway, the second uncle will only remember the sad things in the past when he sees it!", Li Changqing smiled unceremoniously.

"Go, go, lest I regret it!", Li Dajiang looked at the cowhide bag and waved his hand reluctantly.

"Then I'm leaving!", Li Changqing said with a long bench and a leather bag.

After turning over the back mountain, Li Changqing put the cowhide bag and the bench under the shed of the wooden house.

Before thinking about how to make a chicken coop, Li Changqing needed to be familiar with the use of various carpenter tools.

At that time, when building the wooden house, there was still a lot of wood left, and Li Changqing took it out as practice materials.

Li Changqing started with the most basic use of a saw to break down wooden planks, and gradually explored the use of planers, chisels, rulers, axes, and ink fountains.

At the beginning, it was always impossible to control the strength and direction, and it often happened that the saw was off, uneven, and crooked.

But what Li Changqing lacks most is perseverance, reading and watering every morning, concentrating on carpentry during the day, and practicing calligraphy and painting in the bamboo forest at night.

After being infused with Confucianism, Li Changqing's control over body functions is slightly stronger than that of ordinary people, and he slowly finds his feelings after constantly adjusting, trying, and improving, and basically there will be no mistakes.

During the adaptation period, Li Changqing made himself a rocking chair.

It looks ugly from the outside, but it's quite comfortable to lie on it and blow a cool breeze and listen to the birdsong and enjoy the green mountains and green waters.

Li Changqing made the basic preparations and began to think about why he made a chicken coop?

The primary function is to shelter from the wind and rain, how big should the chicken coop be and what kind of wood should be used?

If you want to raise chickens, what can you do to help the formation of daily habits of chickens?

A large amount of excrement is produced in the chicken coop every day, how to clean it up most easily and effectively?

......

Li Changqing listed all the problems he could think of on paper, and then drew the prototype of the chicken coop for various functions!

It is broken down into detailed steps, which only need to be completed step by step.

Li Changqing went to the village to buy some wood, and began to work with the old carpenter's tools given by Li Dajiang.

Ten days passed quietly unconsciously, and before Li Changqing's chicken coop was built, the leeks planted were already green.

The mountain breeze blew through the leek fields, stirring up bursts of green waves!

Every leek is like a slim girl, pure and immature, and beautiful!

Li Changqing couldn't bear to cut them, but fortunately, the leeks would grow after cutting.

"Qingwa, is this the leek you planted?", Liu Cui'e looked at the vegetable basket that Li Changqing brought home.

"Yes!", Li Changqing nodded.

"Why does it look so tender, as if it can pinch out water?", Liu Cui'e said in surprise.

"Hehe, probably I water it every morning!" Li Changqing said with a smile.

"The leeks we used to grow, I watered them several times a day, and I didn't do it!" Liu Cui'e said.

"Then it may be that the soil of the vegetable plot I have cultivated is better, and I will send some to the second uncle's house!", Li Changqing took the opportunity to say.

"Yo, Brother Qing, you really look like a farmer now!"

Li Changliang happened to be at home during the May Day holiday, and when he saw Li Changqing's eyes wide-eyed, he said.

"Haha, brother, you're wrong! Our brother Qing is like a peasant, he is an authentic peasant!", Li Hongdou patted Li Changliang's shoulder and said with a smile.

"Red Bean, don't forget that my brother is still a carpenter, the guys who eat from the second uncle have all been passed on to me!", Li Changqing also said with a smile.

"Brother Qing, why are you a scholar still competing for a job with me, a scumbag?", Li Changliang pouted.

"Xiao Liangzi, if you want to learn, the second uncle won't teach you yet!", Li Changqing said with a smile.

"That's it, I'm not good at studying, and I still want to learn carpentry!", Li Hongdou said beside him.

"Why can Brother Qing learn?", Li Changliang said unconvinced.

"Hmph, if you can graduate from a prestigious university like your Qingge, I will teach you!", Li Dajiang interjected when he came out of the workshop.

"Daddy, who is the biological one?"

Li Changliang made a very aggrieved appearance, not only did not get sympathy, but caused everyone's laughter.

"Second uncle, I planted some leeks at the foot of Zhong Nan Mountain, send some for you to taste!", Li Changqing put the vegetable basket away.
