Chapter 16 New Products

When the stone bridge was passed by the Huizhu Courtyard in Monan, many fish shuttled freely in the clear river under the sunlight, a vibrant picture.

The beautiful picture has become boiled fish, braised fish, sweet and sour fish, spicy dried fish and so on. In the last days, the river water was polluted, and the fish were basically extinct. Seeing that there were so many fish here, she was hungry.

When Mu Zhanying came back with the prey, he saw the little girl and a small hair ball, both of them lying on the guard with glowing eyes, looking like they were about to jump into the river. immediately shouted, "Xiao Nan, what are you doing?" ”

"Delicious fish...... Well? It's Brother Mu. Turning his head and seeing Mu Zhanying, his eyes were still shining.

Knowing that she hadn't heard what she had just said, Mu Zhanying had no choice but to ask again. "Xiao Nan, what are you standing here for?"

"I'm looking at the fish." She said with a smile on her face.

And then what? I feel so tired talking to this little girl.

"By the way, Brother Mu, I asked Second Uncle Yang to help make some chairs, and he will help me send them to Gukou in ten days, can you help me send them to the bamboo courtyard then?"

Originally, she planned to let Second Uncle Yang leave first that day, and then put the things into the space and take them back, but when the time comes, she will have to ask Brother Mu to confess, so it is better to ask him to help directly.

"No problem."

"Thank you, Brother Mu, I'll go back, goodbye." He turned around and left, thinking that next time he would bring a fishing rod to fish.

Looking at the little girl who ran back to the valley happily, you haven't told Brother Mu what he wanted to do on the bridge just now.

[A full set of carpenter's tools, which is the basic equipment to become a master of the machine.] 】

[Mission: Use the carpenter's tools to complete any work.] Time limit for completion: within two days. 】

Mo Nan looked at the system prompt speechlessly, he had been in a place where there were people just now, and it was not easy to get the reward, so he didn't go to collect it until he got home.

Carpenter work, although I have helped in the last days, but mainly as a porter, it is very difficult to make it independently.

She frowned and went to prepare dinner, her head hurting from the thought, and she still couldn't think of a good solution. Or go to Uncle Yang tomorrow and learn now?

Terry didn't know where to go, and when he returned, his snow-white fur had turned gray.

She had no choice but to carry Gray Terry to the bathroom, "Little naughty, where did you go to play, your whole body is dusty, it's so dirty!" Wash before eating. ”

"It's good that the water has been boiled, otherwise you would have been hungry and waiting for a long time." Soap, bubble up, wash.

The matter of skin soap should also be prepared as soon as possible, and the spice can still use mint, but after a while the weather is cold, it will not be. The problem of oil also needs to be solved, and the production of animal oil is unstable.

Ah, there are also molds, if it is for large families, it should be made a little more exquisite. I used to pour the mold directly with a bamboo cover, but now I think about it, it's a bit rough, but fortunately, Xiaoyun and they don't dislike it.

Thinking of the mold, it suddenly occurred to him that this was also carpentry work, and with a hard squeeze in his hand, Terry whined in pain, and looked at her with two big eyes aggrieved.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I hurt you." Check it right away, but fortunately there is no hair loss. He gently stroked the place where it had been grabbed with his hand, and kept apologizing in his mouth.

In order to appease the innocent Taley, he gave it the last bowl of pheasant soup he had saved. After dinner, I went back to the house and tried to carve under the oil lamp.

Pick up the bamboo cover that you have used before, and carve the inner wall of the bamboo cover with a knife. But the bamboo is relatively thin, and if you are not careful, you will use too much force, and you will wear a hole. This knife is too sharp, isn't it?

Rubbing your eyes with your hands, using an oil lamp at night really hurts your eyes. Let's continue tomorrow during the day, look at the mission menu, there is still time.

So Menan packed up his things, took a battle bath, and went to sleep.

When she woke up early the next morning, she decided to look for materials to make skin soap and wood to make molds.

Mo Nan deliberately went in a different direction than last time, and there was no suitable forest for the forest he had been to before.

When she saw Nanxiang Tree, she remembered that the bracelet Yang Dalang gave to Xiaoyun was made of this kind of wood. He should also be a beginner in carpentry, so he chose Nanxiang tree.

I took out an axe and chose a Nanxiang tree that should be about five years old, and after cutting it down a dozen times, it fell down, and the whole tree was collected into the space.

She found that her strength was much greater, and she had only chopped bamboo dozens of times before. Of course, tools are the main reason, but the exercise during this time is also productive.

When I was harvesting the tree, I found a fruit tree on the other side, and the branches were full of fruit. Some of them also fell to the ground, looking a lot like avocados. When she saw the identified name, she was very excited, this is shea butter.

The pit of this is a special oil for skin care products. Because the tree was a bit tall, she couldn't climb it yet, so she had to pick up fruit from the ground. Some of the flesh had been pecked by birds, and she was so heartbroken, and this flesh was also delicious.

After walking back and forth several times, she finally put all the fruits and cores that fell on the ground into the space, and she laughed a few times in satisfaction.

The material of the base oil has been found, and we need to look for flowers that can be added as spices. She discovered a lot of new plants, such as pepper, perilla, cranberry fruit, etc., but there were no materials that could be used to make skin soap, she hoped to find roses or daisies.

As she prepares to go back disappointed, she is attracted by a cluster of white flowers in the distance. When I stepped forward, I saw that it was Jasmine! This can be used as a tea or as an ingredient.

So, like locusts crossing the border, they collected all the jasmine flowers, and dug up a dozen of them, intending to go back and plant them.

Mo Nan likes jasmine flowers, and in his previous life, he planted a pot in the dormitory of the research compound.

As soon as I returned to the bamboo courtyard, I took out today's harvest from the space.

Shea butter is divided into three piles with whole, pecked, and only the pits remain. The jasmine only took part of the flowers, and now that the sun is too big, I am afraid that it will not be able to grow alive, so the Nanxiang tree will also be put aside.

Wash the shea butter and jasmine and set aside to dry.

Simply made lunch with the recipe function, and when it was done, I took two whole shea butter butters and scooped out the pulp. Then she ate one and fed another to Terry. It's delicious, I'm going to pick up fruit next time.

After a little rest, Mo Nan's spirit was a little excited, so he didn't take a nap and went directly to deal with the Nanxiang tree.

Use an axe to chop off the branches of the nanxiang tree, cut out a small section, and reclaim the rest of the space for later use.

Peeling small segments of trees, and the trees that are going to be carpentry had to be dealt with first, but Monan couldn't. There isn't much time given for the task, so I'll just do it first.

A rough outline is carved out with a handmade knife, and then carefully adjusted with a carving knife. A very simple petal shape is carved and then finely sanded with sandpaper.

When she put down the simple mold in her hand, she finally heard a chime.

【Ding Dong!】 The first carpentry work is completed. 】

[Complete the first carpentry task and receive the reward.] 】

Looking at the reward button, she was struggling whether to claim it, and if it came with a task like before, it would be troublesome. There's still a lot of work to be done.

Let's wait until the matter is taken care of and then go and pick it up.

Peel off the dried shea butter pits and place the pits in a cloth bag. Then put it in the wooden basin and pound it with a thick wooden stick. Slowly, milky white oil seeped out of the cloth. Then filter the milky white oil with a cloth towel several times, and then put it in a bucket to precipitate, and the excess residue is used as fertilizer to plant flowers.

The jasmine, which has also been dried, is spread out in a steamer basket and steamed with clean water.

I scooped the shea butter on the top and made a piece with nothing added, a piece with mint leaf juice, and a skin soap with jasmine water.

In the evening, I cut a small piece of each piece from the solidified skin soap and tried it. After using it, it feels good, even better than before. The freshly made jasmine also has a good flavor and a light fragrance.

After the things were packed up, I went to sleep with peace of mind, thinking that my carpentry work was not good, and I still had to ask Uncle Yang to help me do the mold in the future. I also have to ask if there are any tools for oil extraction, I am tired today.

Thinking of the unclaimed reward, I couldn't sleep, tossed and turned, and finally didn't resist my curiosity and clicked to claim it.

[Hand oil press drawings, an artifact that can squeeze oil, free your hands to do more important things.] 】

It's just a drawing, can it be handed over to someone else to do? Then it comes to the sentence that this drawing is only used by the recipient, and cannot be traded or transferred.

...... Monan pondered, in fact, the system had a mind stealer in her head, right?

solved the matter in her heart, and she fell asleep without taking a nap and couldn't stay up late.

[Mission: Learn about the legends of the village.] Time limit for completion: within one day. 】

Suddenly I heard a hint again, the legend of the village? Should I ask Uncle Yang? But it's exactly twenty, and Old Man Zhang should come back from worshipping his ancestors. It's the same to ask him, and you can also ask about the master by the way.

She was very glad that she had written according to the notebook a few days before the holiday. Otherwise, according to the busyness in the back, there will be no time to write, and if you don't finish it, you will be beaten in the palm of your hand.

Although she looks like a ten-year-old girl now, she is a person who has experienced the end of the world at heart. She doesn't want such a shameful thing as beating her palm.

I did the experiment last night and had more materials, so I made a few more pieces of skin care soap, which I just took to give to you today.

handed over the written words to Mr. Zhang for inspection, and he nodded while reading.

These words are much better than before, but there is still a big gap compared to normal people. When the old man came back, he heard that you have done a lot of things recently, and I was worried that you would abandon your studies. But now it seems that you are still working hard, very serious, and you still have to persevere. ”

Mo Nan is used to Old Man Zhang's educational method of slapping a sweet date.

"yes, got it."

After finishing the half-day class, she hugged Terry with her eyes wide open, and secretly looked at Old Man Zhang. Since the last time she held Terry and begged to stay, she found that the old man was a hard-faced and soft-hearted person.

Sure enough, Old Man Zhang noticed the little girl's timid movements, so he asked softly, "What's wrong?" Do you need help from the old man when you encounter anything? ”

"Sir, why do you live in this village? And you all say that the master is talented, but I haven't found out. She muttered to herself that she hadn't found out because she hadn't seen this person yet.

"This has to start with the origin of this village."

When she heard a story, she poured tea for the old man and sat down obediently with Terry in her arms.
