"Is sheep shearing so fun? Then I'll try it too! ”

Lan Qiao saw that several people had stepped forward, and he also came over curiously, and just in front of Mo Lan, he picked up a stone knife, grabbed a lock of wool on the alpaca's leg, and stretched out his hand to cut it!

After a shrill hissing sound, the e-llama suddenly jumped up and down like crazy!

The Jinyu chord reacted quickly and got up and stepped aside, but Han Che did not retreat, but advanced, reached out and put his arm around the camel's neck, and kept caressing its fur to comfort it.

And Mo Lan's face changed, and she hurriedly rushed over and pulled Lan Qiao away, "You big fool!" It's hurt Xiaobai! ”

After speaking, he immediately reached out and grabbed the body of the female llama, and kept caressing it on its back.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid! He didn't mean to! It's okay, it's okay, I'll come and see your legs! ”

After the female alpaca was calmed down, Mo Lan half-squatted down and checked the place where Lan Qiao had touched just now, and sure enough, he found a scratch with a slight blood stain.

She immediately crossed her waist and scolded Lan Qiao: "Da Bai has been injured by you!" Are you a sheep shearing or do you want to eat a leg of lamb? ”

"Big White?" Is this still a name? That's a weird name, isn't it?

Lan Qiao smiled and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" I thought it would be easy to shear sheep! Who knew it wouldn't be easy to find out as soon as you got started! ”

Mo Lan rolled her eyes, "You should be as smart as those three beautiful men?" ”

"Three beautiful men?"

Lan Qiao looked dumbfounded.

The three beautiful men who were mentioned all looked at Mo Lan, and they all blushed involuntarily.

Isn't? In terms of appearance, Han Che, Jinyu, and Xian Na are all first-class characters in the Kumo Snow Plain, he and Zhan Hong are not ugly, but they are still a lot worse than them!

Beautiful man, that's right! Brilliant and yes!

Anyway, Lan Qiao thinks that he can't compare to these three people! So Mo Lan's words, he couldn't refute half a sentence.

"But ......" Mo Lan finished speaking, but suddenly turned around and glared at Jinyu Hexian, and said angrily: "What are you two running?" Alpacas eat grass, can you still eat them? Fortunately, Han Che comforted the female llama in time, otherwise if you wanted to shear it again, I am afraid that it would not have been! ”

Jinyu chord was reprimanded by Mo Lan, and they were all sneering.

Jin Yu said: "Being frightened and avoiding is just an instinctive reaction, and I haven't thought much about it!" However, Minister Han was calmer and made a save. ”

"It's going to hurt me! Don't come forward for any of you, stay where you are! ”

Mo Lan glared at the three troublemakers a few times, and then stepped forward, and together with Han Che, he comforted him a few times, and it took about half an hour to make the female alpaca's body no longer tremble and let down her guard.

The next sheep shearing work was all handed over to Han Che and Mo Lan, and they were busy for about an hour, and finally the wool was almost sheared. At this moment, the female alpaca was changing, and when the little alpaca saw that her mother was made like this, she immediately gathered around her and neighed, as if she was worried about something.

Mo Lan grabbed a handful of the wild grass that Harry had cut back, fed it to the little llamander's mouth, and comforted it while stroking its head: "Don't worry! Your mom is fine! After a while, the hair grows again! ”

The little alpaca is very coaxing, obediently gnawing on the hay in Mo Lan's hand and not screaming.

Mo Lan saw that the little alpaca was quiet, so she got up and said to Jinyu: "Let people collect these wool first, and be careful not to get wet." Let's go see if the sheepfold is set up? When you settle down, I'll teach you how to milk the goat, and if it goes well, you'll have fresh goat's milk to drink tonight! ”

Jinyu nodded, ordered someone to carry the large pile of camel wool on the animal skin back to the storage room, and took Mo Lan and the others to the open space behind the guest house.

In the open space, Fanxing and others were carrying wood, and I saw that some of them were carrying and some were lifting, and they were working hard.

There were already some timbers piled up in the clearing, but there was still a lot of work to be done to build a sheepfold.

Mo Lan saw that the snow ape people who were carrying the wood had gone back and forth, and it took a long time to ask, "Is the place where the wood is stored far away from here?" ”

Hearing this, Jinyu nodded and said, "The timber is in the wood warehouse about two hundred zhang away. ”

Two hundred zhang? That's about 600 meters away? It's no wonder that the back and forth takes such a long time, and each person can only carry one piece of wood at a time, and the heavier ones have to be carried by two people, which is really slow.

At this rate, the sheepfold will not be built before dark.

Mo Lan thought for a while and said, "It's not possible to carry it like this, it's time-consuming and laborious!" Wait until we get a wagon out for you, so that we can transport the timber. ”

"Carriage? What is it? Jinyu had never heard of such a thing, and looked at Mo Lan with a puzzled expression.

However, Han Che on the side was very surprised and walked over and grabbed Mo Lan and said, "You want to build a carriage?" ”

Hearing Han Che ask, it was obvious that he knew what the carriage was.

Jinyu suddenly felt uncomfortable in his heart, originally his master was only Mo Lan, but now even Han Che is a head taller than him, how can he be happy?

Mo Lan looked at Han Che with a smile and said: "I couldn't do it before because there was no wood, but now that the snow ape clan has sufficient conditions, it can naturally be done!" ”

"Okay, I'll help you later!"

Han Che was very pleased. Mo Lan had mentioned the carriage to him several times, and had described it to him countless times. He already knew the structure of the carriage well, how could he not be excited to be able to put it into reality at this moment?

"Good! It's a lot faster with your help, otherwise I really can't do it alone! ”

Mo Lan readily agreed.

"Miss Merlan, what exactly is the carriage you are talking about?"

Jinyu can't wait to know.

Mo Lan turned around and explained to him: "A car is a means of transportation with wheels. It is divided into many types, rickshaws, animal carts, electric cars, and motor vehicles. But for the time being, all we can build is rickshaws and animal-powered carts. There are no raw materials for other cars, so don't think about it for the time being.

The advantage of the carriage is that it does not have to waste manpower, and it can do things that are ten times and a hundred times stronger than manpower.

For example, a horse-drawn carriage can carry more than ten pieces of wood at a time. Then it's no problem to build this sheepfold before dark! ”

"Can you build it before dark?"

After listening to Mo Lan's words, not only Jinyu, but also the other Snow Ape Clansmen were in disbelief for a while.

How is this possible?

Although this sheepfold is only equivalent to half a wooden house, it usually takes them at least three or four days to build a wooden house!

This sheepfold will take a day, to say the least, right? It's already noon now, can it be done before dark?

Just when everyone was still suspicious, Mo Lan had already rolled up her sleeves and started to prepare.

If you don't grasp it, you really can't do it, and you'll have to milk the goats later! Thinking that she could drink a bowl of hot goat's milk to relieve the tiredness of the day later, Mo Lan was a little comforted!

Building a carriage is easier said than done. For no other reason, there is a shortage of crafting tools in this wild tribe.

Luckily, she made axes and planers, and she barely managed to make progress in the fortifications, otherwise it would not have been easy to complete before dark.

Soon, the structural parts of a carriage were almost complete, the carriage, the wheels, and the axles.

The car part of Mo Lan added a car gang, and the car gang and the body floor Mo Lan were fixed by tenon joints.

The tenon joint method is a common connection method in ancient woodworking. In the era before the advent of metal, carpenters generally chiseled out the tenon and mortise of the wood to be joined, and used the concave and convex joint method to make the two planks tightly connected.

This method is often used even in modern woodworking and is a very strong joining method.

The next step is assembly, which is much simpler. Just lift the car and put it on the wheels, and that's it!

After the carriage was erected, Mo Lan asked Lan Qiao to lead a Kumo horse that they had brought over, and then put the body on the horse, and a carriage was finally formed!

Looking at the onlookers staring at the carriage curiously, and kept pointing, Mo Lan breathed a long sigh of relief, turned back to Han Che and smiled: "Han Che, let's go up and try?" ”

"Good!"

Han Che readily agreed, but when he stepped forward, he stretched out his hand to stop Mo Lan, but he began to check around the carriage, and after making sure that there was no abnormality in the carriage, he stretched out his hand to Mo Lan and said, "Come up!" ”

Mo Lan was moved by Han Che's carefulness, smiled softly at her, and then put his hand into his palm, and the two of them sat in the carriage one left and one right.

When everyone saw this scene, their eyes widened in surprise!

This is the carriage?

It's amazing! You don't have to walk to get anywhere from here, and the horse-drawn carriage is so nice!

Mo Lan and the two drove the carriage around the clearing, and after making sure that the carriage had no problem and could be put into use, they asked Lan Qiao to drive the carriage and take the Snow Ape Clan and others to pull the wood.

Mo Lan stayed where he was, teaching Fan Xing and others to use axes to split logs into strips for fences.

Under the guidance of Mo Lan and Han Che, the sheepfold was finally built before dark!

Harrie led some of the women of the tribe to clean the pen and spread a thick layer of straw, and then led the mother llama and the baby llama into it, and tied them with rattan ropes.

Mo Lan asked people to fetch a basin of hot water in a clay pot, washed their hands, and then took a small bench and sat in front of the e-llama.

Everyone knew that she was about to start milking the goat, so they all gathered around curiously.

Mo Lan took out the needle and willow cloth she carried and soaked it in warm water, and then gently wiped the belly of the alpaca while saying: "There are a few points to pay attention to when milking goats, first, to keep the belly of the alpaca clean, and to scrub it clean every time." Second, it should be properly massaged to promote lactation. Third, pay attention to the technique, fist milking method is the best.

Fourth, milking should be fast, not too long. Fifth, milking should be timed, fixed, fixed, it is best not to change it all the time, and the milking environment should be quiet, not loud. ”

Mo Lan said as he demonstrated. When the two injections of white milk flowed smoothly into the clay pot prepared below, everyone's eyes showed a wave of excitement and joy.

"It turns out that goat's milk can really be squeezed out!"

"Aren't we having another food?"

"Great!"

"This goat's milk is so white, it looks delicious!"

People didn't dare to speak loudly, and whispered to the side.

After receiving four clay pots of milk, Mo Lan stopped milking, got up and washed her hands in the clay pot, looked up at the sky that was gradually darkening outside, and said proudly: "It's just right not sooner or later, okay!" Cook these two cans of goat's milk for dinner! ”
