In the shelter, Lin Qingxue and Han Xuening were going on their daily life, they carried a basket of mulberry leaves over, this distance looked not far, but Han Xuening was vigorously tossed by Qin Fengyi for more than half an hour yesterday, and she felt that life was so pale and powerless.

"Teacher Han, are you okay?" Lin Qingxue had an experience, and after the first time, the little girl began to doubt her life.

"I'm okay, let's get food for the silkworms. ”

Han Xuening came to the net-like silkworm breeding room, where there were many huge baskets, and the wild silkworms in them were already the thickness of an index finger.

This thickness is compared according to Lin Qingxue's fingers, there is a difference between people, the same is a woman, some hands are dexterous, and some are like pig's trotters.

Qin Fengyi was busy burning the kiln, looking at the two girls who had worked hard all day, he was also very distressed, "I have a proposal, after this wave of silkworms cocoon and eggs, let's stop raising silkworms, just put the silkworm eggs on the mulberry tree, and raise them freely." ”

"Free-range?"

After Lin Qingxue and Han Xuening heard Qin Fengyi's proposal, they turned their heads one after another, and were looked at like this by two girls with bright eyes and bright teeth, Qin Fengyi was a little happy.

The image that came to mind was a man chopping wood, and two girls with their belly pockets were kneading dough.

I really want to stay away from the worldly strife and experience the primitive life, I chop wood, you two knead dough!

Speaking of kneading dough, there is a lot of flour in the shelter, which can be used to make dumplings, but there is no fresh pork.

Secondly, there is a large piece of honey killer whale meat buried in the hearth in the sandy soil of the shelter, which is made by pouring honey on the killer whale meat, then wrapping it in layers of leaves, burying it with small stones, and placing it on the fire to slowly simmer.

The meat of killer whales should be similar to beef, relatively firm, and can be fully cooked with stuffed processing.

Back to the question of sericulture!

"Qin Fengyi, what's the matter with free-range farming you are talking about?" Lin Qingxue has had enough of taking care of the life of wild silkworms, these insects are too edible, and there are not many wild silkworms pulled, but thousands of them are made together, and it is really hard to clean up a few catties of silkworm feces a day.

The worst thing is that the leaves of the mulberry trees are decreasing one by one, and it will not be long before they are exhausted, and in a few days I will have to get some mulberry trees back.

"Free-range ...... It's very simple, just hang the silkworm eggs on the mulberry tree and let it eat and reproduce by itself!" Qin Fengyi stuffed firewood into the kiln, and when the flame slowly burned, a scorching high temperature bloomed around the kiln.

Can't stand this terrible high temperature, Qin Fengyi quickly put the dry mud blank in the kiln, the mud blank was placed around, and the weird metal born by the parasite was placed in the middle of the kiln, these weird metals are very hard, but I don't know whether they can withstand high temperatures, if you want to forge these things, you first have to heat the kiln.

"You mean to let the wild silkworms fend for themselves?" Han Xue Ning looked around, there were still some birds wandering around the coconut trees, they had been paying attention to the movements in the mesh hut, these hateful birds had been trying to eat the silkworm babies inside, but unfortunately because of the nets made of these tree bark, they couldn't get in.

"It's not about fending for itself, we can plant some mulberry trees around, hang some silkworm eggs on them, and then make this kind of mesh hut around the mulberry trees, as long as the birds are separated. Qin Fengyi thought for a while and said, "The natural enemies of wild silkworms are estimated to be only birds, right?"

"There are still insects, and the praying mantis eats silkworm ......"

Qin Fengyi's idea is very convenient, thousands of wild silkworms only need to successfully make cocoons, and the silk that can be made can be made into many skirts, small clothes and the like, and the texture of silk and broken flax can be described as one heaven and one underground.

"I think it's easier to raise free-range silkworms, after raising this wave of wild silkworms, let's leave silkworm eggs, let's raise silkworms according to Qin Fengyi's method, plant more than a dozen mulberry trees nearby, and then hang the silkworm eggs on the trees, at most give them a grid house to shelter from the rain and block the birds, and then it depends on the wild silkworms to develop on their own......" Han Xuening touched the soft wild silkworms with her fingers.

When they grow up, the color of the wild silkworm is grayish-white, with some black spots, and there are loose flesh thorns on their bodies, which looks quite terrible.

"Grid Cottage...... As soon as I saw this, I was... My neck hurts, my cervical vertebrae!" Lin Qingxue had a headache when she talked about the grid house, the grid of this house was made by the little girl herself, and it was really difficult to weave this kind of grid with bark rope.

"I can do it for you, I saw you knitting last time, and it looks very simple. "Han Xuening's talent is tailoring, and she is also quite interested in weaving.

"Okay, when the time comes, let's weave the grid hut together and raise wild silkworms together!" Lin Qingxue was checking the silkworms in the basket, and took out a few dead wild silkworms from them, and then found something, "Look, it's silk, it's silkworm!!"

"Are you going to form a cocoon?" Han Xuening also leaned down, the beautiful teacher's expression was a little hideous when she leaned over, she was ravaged by Qin Fengyi yesterday, and she didn't dare to take too many steps, nor could she make too many leaps.

"Cocooning so quickly?" Qin Fengyi also ran over, the growth rate of the wild silkworm is too fast, how long has it been, is there 7 days?

The movement of the wild silkworm spinning silk was very slow, and the three of them leaned together to look at one of the many wild silkworms, and the other wild silkworms were gnawing wildly, only the guy was holding his head high and was spinning silk.

"It's so slow......" Qin Fengyi saw silkworms spinning silk for the first time, the silkworms he raised before were all spinning silk at night, and when he woke up tomorrow, it was all cocoons, and in a few days, some silkworm moths bit through the cocoons, and then coped with the tails, and then the constipation-style egg laying, and then died......

"It's just a little ......slow," Lin Qingxue watched the wild silkworm spit silk little by little, and gradually lost patience.

"You go on!" Qin Fengyi looked at the two beauties who were pouting, with willow waists and plump buttocks, and a good-looking back.

Wet his clothes with water, Qin Fengyi came to the kiln that was burning, it was quite comfortable here in winter, but this was a desert island on the equator, and when he got close to this thing, it seemed that his body was burning.

The strange metal in the kiln has turned red, and it has been burning for about dozens of minutes, and it seems that these things are similar to stainless steel, that is, the hardness is high.

After that comes the forging!

"Jingle Bell!"

There was a sound of striking metal in the shelter, and after about 10 minutes, the prototype of the Miao knife was completed, these metals are not like iron tools, iron will form a small layer of thin iron sheet like paper in the process of forging, and the color will also turn blue-purple, this metal has always been silvery-white, very strange.

After quenching, the blade is sharpened, and then the blade of the knife is wrapped in a layer of thin mud, and buried with charcoal and charcoal ash to isolate the air, and the carburizing begins for up to 1 hour.
