278 camphor pressed wood

After Yao Xiaoqing was full, he saw the two of them tearing the jerky little by little like hamsters, putting it in their mouths and chewing slowly.

"You guys guard first, and I'll sleep and get up for you."

Ah Que nodded, "Got it." ”

By this time, it was already dark, and there were bursts of frogs chirping outside.

Yao Xiaoqing told the two, "Look at the fire at the entrance of the cave, if the beast is extinguished, we will die." ”

After Ah Que and Ah Nuan were full, listening to Yao Xiaoqing's long breathing, their heads dozed off little by little, and the two curled up at some point and fell asleep together.

Yao Xiaoqing woke up when the two of them fell, watched the two huddle together like puppies, and sat up with a smile.

When Ah Nuan tried to open his eyes, he saw Yao Xiaoqing sitting there guarding the fire, and hurriedly pushed Ah Nuan.

Ah Que woke up suddenly, and the two looked at Yao Xiaoqing uneasily, "Qingwu, we are asleep." ”

Yao Xiaoqing looked at the two of them, "I'm lucky that there are no beasts tonight, if I'm unlucky, we'll be the beast's dinner." ”

The two bowed their heads and confessed, "Yes! We were wrong and won't be next time. ”

Yao Xiaoqing looked at the two of them, "Forget it this time, next time I will punish you like this." ”

The two said in unison, "Yes!" ”

After Yao Xiaoqing and the two of them slept for a while, the genius gradually brightened.

The three of them got up and ate jerky, continued to search, and found some notoginseng, yellow essence, and potato apples ......, and the three of them walked back.

When he returned to the tribe, it was already dark, and Yao Xiaoqing took someone to clean up the medicinal herbs before washing and sleeping.

After Mu Feng taught Ah Xing to refine salt, Shi Shan left a few warriors to take Ah Xing back to Wuxian.

The news that the Yaoshan tribe had killed the warriors sent by the Great Witch also reached the ears of Da Li and Yan Yu. Even if he knew that the Yaoshan tribe had captured those people alive and dragged them to the mountains to show them to the tribes who were rushing to the market before killing them, the great witch would have nothing to do.

When Shi Shan and Ah Xing returned to Yaoshan Daji, they also brought news of the Great Witch, Cuiyu gathered a group of wild people and fought a few battles with the Wuxian tribe, and the two tribes were still slightly better than Wuxian.

After hearing this, Yao Xiaoqing felt that this was a typical dog-eat-dog.

A few days later, the matter of Mu Feng and Ah Xing's pairing was also decided, and Shi Shan and Yaohu discussed that they would wait until the autumn market opened, and then send Ah Xing to the Yaoshan tribe.

Yao Xiaoqing took Ah Qi and A Nuan to look for herbs in the mountains and forests, and found cinnamon, cumin, and grass fruits.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, but fortunately I found a spring, and the corn grain, pumpkins, and soil melons have water for irrigation.

The enclosure to the north had been built, and the old man moved the livestock to the outer enclosure and demolished the rabbit shed. Yao Xiaoqing asked them to keep the pigsty and cattle pen, and planned to convert them into warehouses, weaving houses, and oil pressing rooms.

In the blink of an eye, the winter wheat in that field could be harvested.

Eminem the leopard took a dozen women and cut the wheat back in less than a morning. After two days of exposure, it took half a day to beat the wheat out.

The wheat grains of winter wheat are obviously a lot fuller, and Yao Xiaoqing led people to screen out a small amount of deflated seeds and keep all the seeds.

The people of the tribe ate the big meat buns that they had been reading for a long time.

After the winter wheat is harvested, it is soon time to harvest the corn, and the corn in the corn field is bent over by the golden ears of grain.

Yaoshan Daji is also closed, and the harvest of the restaurant is not bad, in exchange for a lot of beans, millet and some jerky. The pumpkin has also been exchanged for a lot of food, and the big head is still the golden medicine and snake medicine made by Yao Xiaoqing.

When the corn was harvested, all the people in the tribe went out to cut and dry the grain.

Here the corn is harvested, the other side is busy plowing the land and sowing seeds, and everyone is so busy that their heels do not touch the ground, and finally the corn is harvested and planted.

After planting, Yaohu and Jiang Li finally built the wind valley machine after several experiments.

Everyone poured the sun-dried millet into the barn, opened the bayonet, shook the handle of the fan blade, and the deflated and plump grains fell into the basket automatically from the two outlets, and the millet and impurities flew out of the outlet.

Yaohu nodded again and again, "This thing is good, it is more convenient and trouble-free than a sieve." ”

Yao Xiaoqing said with a smile: "Father, after the threshing machine is ready, it will be more convenient for us after the wheat harvest next year." ”

Yaohu nodded proudly, "Jiang Li said, the gear part of the threshing machine is the same as the wind valley machine, which is more trouble-free than the wind valley machine." ”

Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "As long as you make one, it will be more convenient to make something else." When you are more skilled, let's go and build a water mill on the canal on the other side of the spring, and then we will use water to grind rice flour. ”

Yaohu looked at Jiang Li and smiled: "Look at Xiaoqing, we still have two things to make, and she has come up with something new." ”

Jiang Li glanced at Yao Xiaoqing with a smile, "Take your time, you will do it one day." ”

Yao Xiaoqing suddenly thought that the rape had already blossomed and set pods, and he would start harvesting the rape in a while, and the tools for extracting the oil had not yet been made.

"Jiang Li, do you know what method you use to squeeze oil there?"

Jiang Li smiled and nodded, "Yes, there is an oil mill and a mill on my Zhuangzi, you let me think about what the oil extractor said?" ”

"Hmm!" Yao Xiaoqing also smiled and nodded.

After a while, Jiang Li said in a low voice: "I remember that the long-term worker who pressed oil said that the tools for oil extraction are composed of a grinding plate, a wooden press, a ram, and a wooden wedge. The wood is a three-person camphor wood, hollowing out the trees, and the packaged oil cakes are packed into the squeezing trough of the wood press one by one and arranged neatly.

Once the oil cake is loaded, a wooden block is stuffed into one side of the oil cake and the wedge is struck with a hanging ram. The wedge is driven into the chamber to squeeze the wooden block placed horizontally in the chamber, the wooden block squeezes the oil cake, the rapeseed oil flows out from the hole at the bottom of the camphor wood, and the oil is scooped into the cylinder to precipitate. ”

"I knew you had seen it!" Yao Xiaoqing said with a smile, "The rape has begun to bloom, and it will be too late to do so, so let's go out and find the camphor wood." ”

Jiang Li smiled and nodded, "There are a lot of mountains behind the camphor wood, and they are all big trees hugged by several people. ”

Yao Xiaoqing smiled: "Hmm! Call a few people to come and let's go up the hill and cut down the trees. ”

After the two said yes, they said hello to Yaohu, and then took Mu Feng and the leopard and a few people with saws and axes and walked towards the back mountain.

When a few people arrived at the mountain, they chose a camphor tree with a straight trunk that three people hugged together, and began to cut it down.

Jiang Li thought about it and said to Yao Xiaoqing: "Qingwu, camphor wood has the effect of repelling insects and mildew, and preventing corrosion of clothes. Wool, skin, silk, linen and other high-end clothing, calligraphy and painting books are put into it, not only do not have insects, do not mold, but also can be dyed with aromatic smell.

Such a stout camphor wood is extremely difficult to obtain in later generations, and now that the tribe has carpentry tools, we should cut a few more and go back to make some furniture and a wooden warehouse to store food. ”
