Chapter 64: The First Juicer

Closed.

The ants are no longer as restrained as before, and after they have tasted the benefits of a rest day, no one is willing to give up this hard-won holiday.

Being able to enjoy a rest day is definitely the most luxurious thing in the ant tribe.

Some of the worker ants took the new ants to carry out the same team building activities as last time. And Xiao Ran took a part of the worker ants and boiled toon fruit tea.

Although I am a worker ant, the rituals of life are not bad.

If there is no cake, use crab jerky for the time being. A sip of fragrant toon fruit tea, just a bite of sweet crab jerky, this afternoon, there is a different flavor.

The workers had never enjoyed such a day, especially the new entrants. Xiao Ran told them that this is called "afternoon tea", only in the United Nations of the Sea Buckthorn Zerg, on this kind of day, you can have whatever you want.

"Prime Minister, Boss!"

"Prime Minister's Boss"

"Prime Minister, Boss!"

......

The ants cheered and gave Xiao Ran the title of "Pioneer of Ant Clan Afternoon Tea".

A lovely weekend was spent in a cheerful way. Xiao Ran discovered a problem, the ants joined by the Shangxuan Empire are almost not familiar with the beard language, whether it is in the process of transporting sugarcane, or during the weekend play, they have a communication gap with the workers in the original anti-sperm cave.

The worker ants in the anti-sperm cave have become accustomed to the high-level language that can spread wirelessly and one-to-many, but the ant cells from the Shangxuan Empire have only begun to use the ancient contact language. This kind of wired contact can only transmit language one-to-one, which is ancient and inefficient in the face of Suyu.

To improve the efficiency of production, the efficiency of communication is the first priority. Xiao Ran decided to solve the problem of language first, and then proceed with production step by step.

Oh yes, it's better to ......

Soon, Xiao Ran had an idea. He thought that it would be better to use the method of the fourth or sixth level of the beard language to train the new ant cells. In addition to participating in the construction of the Cloud Palace, each new ant cell must also learn the Suyu language and reach the level 4 or above of the Suyu language before they can carry out production activities. In this way, whether it is an expedition or a construction, the efficiency of communication will be much higher in an instant.

Professional training can reduce the time wasted in production.

So who do you choose, this Suyu training teacher......

At first, Xiao Ran wanted to find a worker ant who was disabled in the battle for bamboo shoots and insects, as a teacher of Suyu training, but after several exchanges, Xiao Ran always felt that they could learn Suyu, and it seemed that it was difficult for some strong ants to teach Suyu professionally.

Just when Xiao Ran was at a loss, Hua Jiao recommended Xiaobei to Xiao Ran.

"Xiaobei?" Xiaoran hesitated, Xiaobei was still a half-old child.

"Yes, it's Becky. "Hua Jiao said, "Although Xiaobei is not very old, in the anti-sperm cave, his beard is very standard, not in a hurry, and the swing is in place." ”

Xiao Ran thought about it for a while, this Xiaobei was by his side all day long, shouting "Prime Minister Boss" and "Prime Minister Boss" one by one, and his mustache was really good.

Oh, by the way, Xiaobei also won the grand prize of the grass seed lottery, and it can be regarded as having an identity. So Xiao Ran appointed Xiao Bei as the main trainer of the Suyu training, and conducted the fourth and sixth level assessment of the new ants.

Then, he gave in to Hua Jiao to formulate the "Expedition Law", which wrote that only after passing the fourth level of the language can you go on an expedition with the organization.

After all the arrangements were made, Xiao Ran asked the wizard to make a hexagram again, but the hexagram showed that today was still not an auspicious day to go out to the peanut field. Xiao Ran was a little helpless, he found the four brothers of the Shi family and started the production of juice extraction equipment.

For the next two days, the wizard's hexagram still showed that it was not advisable to go to the peanut field. Therefore, Xiao Ran spent two boring days, either to see the words of the new ants taught by Xiaobei, or to supervise whether the Shi brothers had built the juice extraction equipment according to the drawings.

By the fourth day, the juicing equipment was finally completed.

Xiao Ran ordered the ants to transport a section of sugar cane to the stone scoop, still squeezing the juice in the same way as the last strawberry.

The four brothers of the Shi family pushed the two pebbles from the first height to the second height. Tie the needle and thread and push the two pebbles to the first height to lift the large pebbles.

Bang!

The workers untied the needles and threads on the small pebbles, and the big pebbles instantly smashed into the stone scoop. This sugarcane was left for five days and lost a little moisture, but fortunately it was not much.

A large pebble went down, and a little juice came out of the ends of the sugar cane.

"Come again!" Xiao Ran commanded.

The four brothers of the Shi family once again transported the two pebbles to the second height, tied them with needles and threads, and pushed them to the first height. At the first level, the worker ants untie the needle and thread.

Bang!

Second squeeze.

Sugarcane juice is a little bit more, but not much.

Bang!

The Shi brothers pushed the stone again, and the third squeeze was squeezed down.

Bang!

Fourth squeeze!

Bang!

Fifth squeezing.

Bang!

Sixth squeeze.

......

Bang!

Fifteenth press.

Once again, the four brothers of the Shi family pushed the two small pebbles to the second height.

"Huh~Huhu~ No, no, Prime Minister!" Shi Jiataro was already out of breath, "I'm so tired from this trip!"

Xiao Ran looked at the four brothers of the Shi family, not only Shi Taro, but also his younger brothers and sisters Shi Erlang, Shi Sanlang, and Shi Zhenxiang were also out of breath.

It seems that they really can't do it, this fifteen squeezes, is this their limit......

Xiao Ran looked at the sugarcane in the stone scoop again, and scooped a thin layer of sugarcane juice at the bottom. I am afraid that this sugarcane juice has not even been squeezed out of one-tenth of the sugarcane. With such efficiency, even if all the Shi cousins were brought over, it would be difficult to squeeze the juice of the sugarcane clean.

Xiao Ran was a little disappointed with this first-generation juicer, which clearly did not live up to its expectations. Although the principle of such a juicer is feasible, it is really laborious and inefficient, even if the Shi brothers do not do any work, and spend all day and day here, it is difficult to squeeze a single section of sugarcane.

It seems that there is only other way to do it.

Xiao Ran looked at the lever on the juicer, two small pebbles, and one big pebble, and couldn't help but think, if there was anything that could automatically push the ball high, it would be good. If this kind of automated process can be realized, then there is no need to rely on the power of the Palladium to push the two small balls high over and over again, and there is no need for more than a dozen worker ants to stay here and be responsible for binding and untying the needle and thread.

But what is it that can make two balls roll up automatically......

Wind power, electricity, steam?

If you have electricity, can't you buy a stainless steel juicer......

After thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Ran still didn't have an idea. He knew a lot of mechanical and electrical knowledge, but that knowledge didn't seem to be of much use outside of this wilderness.

Sure enough, any new "invention" requires new thinking, and the method of crushing strawberry jam is too unrealistic to use to squeeze juice.
