It took almost a day to harvest all the grains and perform a simple threshing process.

Lin Luo did not rush to remove the husks, but asked the slave girls to spread out all the rice grains and expose them to the sun.

This is a process before hulling, and the paddy must be dried before it can be hulled more easily.

In this hot summer season, it took less than two days for the unhulled rice grains to dry completely.

At the same time, the tools used to remove the shell are also made with the efforts of craftsmen.

It was a rather strange-looking tool, about 1.5 meters high, with a supporting shelf resembling a wooden bench at the lower end.

Above the shelf, there is a cylinder made of bamboo strips.

It can be seen that the cylinder is divided into two parts, the upper part of which is a long wooden lever at the upper end.

"This thing can peel off the shell of Hakuya?"

Looking at the strange-looking tool in front of him, Chief Deer asked with a look of surprise on his face.

"Boom!"

The deer chief had barely finished asking when a rumbling voice rang out.

I saw that Feng, who was also full of curiosity on the side, had already directly grabbed the wooden lever and turned it.

"Lighten it up, don't break it. ”

Seeing Feng's movements, Lin Luo hurriedly reminded him.

As a foodie, Feng has always had a great passion for what he eats, and naturally he also has a strong interest in the white valley of the He tribe.

Therefore, after learning that the grain had been harvested, Feng rushed here to repair while he had just returned from hunting in the past two days.

"Got it. ”

Hearing this, Feng stopped what he was doing.

"Lin Luo, hurry up and try it, how this thing is shelled. ”

The voice of Yong urging also sounded on the side.

He was in the same hunting team as Feng, and he was currently repairing in the Menggu Valley, so he followed Feng to take a look out of pure curiosity.

"Got it. ”

Lin Luo nodded slightly.

Then, he turned to the two male slaves next to him and said, "According to what I said before, let's get started!"

"Yes. ”

Hearing this, the two male slaves immediately nodded in unison.

Then, one reached out to hold the lever, and the other used a bamboo tube to scoop out a full of rice grains from the large bamboo jar next to it and pour it into the upper part of the ring.

"Boom!"

Immediately, with a rumbling sound, the male slave holding the lever began to turn.

As the tie rod rotates, the upper part of the cylinder also rotates.

"White Valley has become less!"

Suddenly, the surprised voice of the deer chief sounded.

Because, while the upper part of the hulling tool is turning, the rice grains poured into the ring are also constantly decreasing.

"Click!click......"

The next moment, with the constant sound of falling, the surprised expression on the deer chieftain's face became even worse.

It can be seen that between the middle space of the upper and lower parts of the hulling tool, there are white grains and rice bran that has been detached.

It was constantly emerging from the inside, and finally fell into the outer ring.

"The shells are really all gone!"

Feng's voice also sounded quickly.

At this moment, he stared at this scene with wide eyes, and the expression on his face was also full of surprise.

In this regard, Lin Luo's expression was much more flat, and there was just a faint smile on his face.

Because, when the shelling tool in front of me was made, it had been tried many times.

Therefore, for such a result, Lin Luo already knew about it.

"Lin Luo, what is this thing called? It actually removed all the shells of Bai Gu at once. ”

The deer chief immediately turned his head to Lin Luo and asked.

"This hulling tool is called a clay tool. ”

Hearing this, Lin Luo replied with a chuckle: "The soil is relying on the friction of continuous rotation to crush and fall off all the shells of Baigu. ”

"Dirt?"

Hearing Lin Luo's answer, Chief Deer's face still had an expression that seemed to understand but did not understand.

In this regard, Lin Luo did not explain too much.

In fact, Lin Luo had also thought about what kind of shelling tool to make before.

He knew that there were about three ways to dehull rice in ancient times, namely rice hulling, hulling, and milling.

Among them, the simplest and most primitive method is Chung Valley.

The main tools used in the grain are a stone mortar and a wooden pestle, as long as the rice is poured into the stone mortar, and then the wooden pestle is used to pound it vigorously as if it were pounding medicine.

Lin Luo knew that this was the method used by the He tribe.

Because, when he was trading seeds in the He tribe, Lin Luo had noticed that some seeds were damaged, which was the disadvantage of using the method of Chung Gu.

If you use too much force when you are in the valley, you will damage the white valley.

In addition, this method is the most laborious one, so Lin Luo didn't think too much about this method.

The rest of the hulling and milling are used to hull the rice by using soil and stone mills.

In fact, the principle of both methods is the same, both rely on rotation to roll the paddy.

Speaking of which, in terms of practicality, soil is far inferior to stone grinding.

Because the main materials of the soil are bamboo and clay, the grooves of the soil are easily smoothed, and the teeth made of thin bamboo chips are also prone to wear.

Therefore, the soil should be repaired frequently, the trench should be re-deepened, and the worn teeth should be replaced.

And stone mills made of stones, apparently, do not have such problems.

But in the end, Lin Luo still chose soil instead of stone grinding.

The main reason is that the materials used to make the clay are all available.

Because of the demand for making molds in the smelting area, they have long found a high-viscosity red clay, which fully meets the needs of making clay.

As for bamboo, it is needless to say, at this time, Zizhuling has already bred a large bamboo forest in the Menggu.

In addition, the time required to make a stone mill is also longer than that of a clay mill.

Therefore, it was precisely because of various considerations that Lin Luo finally chose to make the clay first.

When the next crop of rice is harvested in the dry season, it is not too late to make stone mills in advance.

......

"Wow, whoa, whoa!"

With the continuous movement of the bamboo dustpan, the lighter weight of rice bran falls to the ground with the wind, leaving only white white grain in the dustpan.

After this process, the husking of the rice is truly completed.

"Lin Luo, can we eat White Valley tonight?"

Looking at the white white grains on the dustpan, Feng swallowed his saliva and asked Lin Luo.

"No, you can't. ”

Lin Luo shook his head very dryly.

Hearing this, the expression on Feng's face suddenly collapsed, and he immediately asked, "Then when can I eat it?"

"When the dry season comes. ”

Lin Luo said lightly.

“......”

Hearing that Lin Luo had been supported for two months, Feng suddenly felt depressed.
