Chapter 196: Leather Boots Baked

Although the Aphid people have a fierce face, they are really unexpectedly generous to their recognized friends.

When Ye Xi went back, they insisted on stuffing him with a big bag of aphids and sending him back. However, Ye Xi saw that it was getting late, and he was afraid that the Aphid people would not have time to rush back before dark, so he firmly refused.

So he carried a bag of aphids on his back, held a large bucket of rubber in both hands, and returned to Tushan in such a large bag.

Back in Tushan, Ye Xi continued to make leather boots.

He first poured out a mold, the sole pattern of the imitation of the sole pattern of the mountaineering shoes, and then poured the natural rubber diluted with water and acid into the mold.

The sour leaf here is extracted from the fruit of a plant, and the effect is no worse than that of the artificial synthesis in the previous life.

Once the rubber sole is made, all the materials are ready. The next step is to make the boots in earnest.

Ye Xi remembered that when he was reading a book, he read an article similar to that of a leather shoemaker, and according to that vague memory, he measured the shape of his feet, made lasts and then made plates.

Making leather boots is much more difficult than making materials earlier. Ye Xi tossed almost a whole sheet of tapir leather, and it took a week to finally make a pair of comfortable leather boots.

On the day the leather boots were made, Ye Xi was almost reluctant to put them on, and his eyes were a little moist when he looked at the familiar and unfamiliar shoes in front of him.

- I've been here for almost a year before I knew it.

He has almost adapted to walking barefoot on mountain roads every day, to wearing animal skins, and to squatting around the campfire to eat barbecue. The once civilized life seems to be far away from him, sometimes looking at the two suns overhead, one big and one small, listening to the roar of dinosaurs from the jungle, he will be in a trance, thinking that the memory of the past 20 years will be his own dream?

But looking at the product of civilization in front of me - leather boots, the time that used to be busy shuttling in high-rise buildings gradually became clear.

Ye Xi put on the leather boots with red eyes.

The tapir is soft and obediently adheres to the top of the foot, making it very comfortable. I pedaled on the spot and found that the boots didn't fit properly.

Tu Shan and the others came over to watch in a new way, bent over and leaned over to take a closer look at the leather boots on Ye Xi's feet, pointing and shouting.

"Wow, I can still wear such a delicate thing on my feet!"

"This is called leather boots, Ye Xi said that in the future, all of us Tushan people will wear them!"

"This ...... I can't bear to wear it, I'm afraid I'll break it if I wear such a good thing. ”

"Me too, even if it doesn't break it, what if it gets dirty. ”

"Lord Ye Xi said, this can protect the feet, if you get dirty, it won't be over, look at your ignorance. ”

"Oh...... But paddling on leather boots makes me more uncomfortable than paddling on my feet, no, I still don't want to wear them. ”

Tu Shanren's eyes lit up as they looked at the freshly baked leather boots, and they talked a lot, and some of them cautiously poked them with their fingers.

Ye Xi smiled and said, "Don't feel distressed, we will make this leather boot on a large scale in the future." Not only for our own people to wear, but also as a special product for our Tushan to sell to other tribes. ”

After this day.

Tu Shanren began to make leather boots as soon as he was free. The process of making leather boots cannot be leaked, so the process of making the materials can only be carried out by the men and married women of the tribe, and each group is responsible for one process, and finally the women of the tribe make the shoes.

The first to put on the leather boots were the soldiers of Tushan, because they often had to run outside, and they were the people who needed the leather boots the most.

After the Tushan soldiers put on their leather boots, they didn't know how to walk at first, and they didn't get used to it, but after a few days, they couldn't do without this thing completely.

Because with leather boots, they no longer have to be distracted to look at the road on the ground, and they don't have to pay attention to whether there are spikes on the ground or anything, so they can travel faster and hunt more efficiently.

Two months later.

Ye Xi stood beside the farmland.

Now the seedlings of the grain grass have reached the thighs, and they look green and gratifying, but some of the seedlings are yellow, and they don't look very good.

Ye Xi touched the yellowed grain grass with his hand.

The grain grass is relatively delicate, and even if there is a special person to serve it carefully, some of them are sick. It's not as good as the red mango vines that are fiddling around, and they have now climbed all over the shelves, and have bloomed little buds, which are about to blossom and bear fruit.

A faint voice came from behind him.

"Ye Xi, can you help me see if this pair of shoes is the size forty-five you said?, is the size right?" said the pheasant, holding a pair of leather boots.

Because Tu Shan wanted to sell leather boots as an industry to people from other tribes in the future, it was impossible to tailor them to every buyer, so Ye Xi taught them how to make shoes according to size. Because most of the buyers should be warriors running outside, Ye Xi took an average value according to the foot size of the Tushan warriors who were counted, centered on the average value, and floated up and down the shoe size.

Ye Xi turned around, took the leather boots and looked at them, and said with a smile: "I don't have the ability to distinguish the size with the naked eye, as long as it is made according to the size board, it should be right." ”

"Oh. The pheasant lowered his head and took the leather boots, plucked up the courage to ask, "I see that you have been wandering around the farmland for the past few days, is there something wrong here?"

"Of course not. Ye Xi was slightly stunned and shook his head with a smile.

He didn't expect the pheasant to be so careful, in fact, he just stayed at the edge of the farmland for a while in the past two days.

He had been waiting for news from the aphids, but he didn't expect to wait for two months, but he didn't see them send anyone over, thinking about it, he unknowingly walked to the edge of the farmland.

It's better to go to the Aphid tribe by yourself. Ye Xi looked at the yellowed seedlings and thought.

At this moment, Greybeak shouted as he ran to this side: "Ye Xi Ye Xi, someone with an aphid is coming, and they said they are coming to you!"

Ye Xi's eyes lit up, and he said to the pheasant: "I'll go over for a while." So he hurried to the mouth of the valley.

at the mouth of the valley.

Several strong men stood there with solemn faces, each with a strong momentum and sharp eyes, looking quite like they were looking for stubble.

A group of Tushan people stood on the other side, and the chief smiled and said a few words at first, but later saw that the people of the aphid had a cold face and did not smile, so they also shut up and did not speak.

When Ye Xi came, both parties were silent.

It's like a confrontation.

Seeing Ye Xi coming over here, both sides had their eyes lit up.

Tu Shan's people wanted Ye Xi to get rid of these evil stars as soon as possible, but E's people felt uncomfortable, and they wanted to say something to Tu Shan's people, and they swallowed it when they reached their mouths.

As soon as Ebony saw Ye Xi, he pounced excitedly and said happily: "Aphid droppings are really useful for trees!

Ye Xi looked at such an ebony and felt as if there was a tail wagging happily behind him, like a big dog inviting merit. 8)
