Song Xuan's head was empty, looking at the snow scene outside the door, Shi Meng looked at the stunned divine envoy, shook his shoulders and said.

"Divine Messenger, Divine Messenger!"

"Huh? What's wrong! ”

"Stone, big stone, I'm polishing it again!"

This is already the third stone mortar that Shi Meng has polished, although Song Xuan has not urged them, but after all, this is a task assigned by the divine envoy, even if he is lazy repeatedly, he can grind one out in ten days.

Moreover, there are not many stones prepared, only about a dozen, and nearly half of them will have to be moved to the salt mine for use at that time.

However, the grinding of salt ore does not need to be so deep, and it will be relatively easy to polish.

Although he was reluctant, the stone mortar made was still very much in line with Song Xuan's requirements, and since the rice was enough, it was time for Song Xuan to prepare for everyone to taste it.

"Okay, then let's put it all together!"

"That's right! There are still a few pieces in the back of the room, and the lines have been drawn for you, so you can move here."

"Huh?!"

After listening to Song Xuan's words, Shi Meng, who thought he was done, suddenly fell into disappointment again, and worked hard for more than a month, but Song Xuan arranged a task for him, and he had no way to refuse, so he could only walk out of the house in despair.

Song Xuan asked the two of them to move two jars of rice over, this kind of jar is not big, one jar of rice is only forty or fifty catties, and it is estimated that the two jars of rice will only be fifty or sixty catties in the end.

It's not a lot, but it's not a problem to give it to the people in the tribe, and if you cook porridge, you can even eat a few more meals.

After all, now I am working in the house, and the amount of activity is not particularly large, and everyone's usual amazing amount of food has also been deliberately reduced a lot, which is also a habit that has been formed for a long time, and eat less in winter.

However, compared to the past, there is still a lot of food to eat, after all, the food is very sufficient!

"Oracle, what is this for?"

Since Song Xuan brought the few of them to these big stones, Litmus asked a little puzzled.

Although the matter of making holes in large stones is well known to everyone in the tribe, most people have never understood its specific function, and only those who have been to salt mines know that it may be used to grind salt ore.

Song Xuan didn't explain much, and then opened the rice jar with rice, and said as he did it:

"Look at it, I'll give you more of this matter later!"

If the power is too large, it is easy to smash the rice grains, but if it is too light, the efficiency will be much slower.

Song Xuan also did it for the first time, and he hadn't practiced it before, after all, whether it was a rice jar or this stone mortar, it was very troublesome to transport.

I took two handfuls of rice and put it in the stone mortar, and then picked up the big wooden hammer on the side, and the "7" shaped wooden hammer was also prepared early in the morning.

Since I don't use it many times now, I don't know when I will use it again next time after this time, so Song Xuan doesn't involve any leverage structure, and that kind of thing can also be done when it's a little free, just use it in your hand now.

The handle of the big wooden hammer is about the same thickness as the spear usually used, and it still feels okay to hold, but the hammer head in front is slightly heavier, so you need to spread both hands as much as possible, so that you can save more effort when smashing.

Watching Song Xuan smash the rice inside with a hammer, several women were a little stunned for a moment, the divine envoy kept saying that this thing could be eaten, but except for a few people who had seen it in the water cloth net, no one else knew how to eat this rice.

Some people try to stuff it directly into their mouths during harvesting, trying to taste it, but it is very prickly and not delicious.

It was only then that they realized that it was necessary to take off a layer of yellow husk outside, although it was only a few flushes, but there were already rice grains beginning to come out, and the white rice was still very conspicuous in a group of yellow rice.

"Okay, do you understand?"

Song Xuan's movements were not complicated, since he also nodded:

"Divine envoy, just smash it like this?"

"Well, let's try it first!"

Song Xuan agreed simply, and several people were also resolute, and one person took a wooden hammer, poured rice into the stone mortar and began to smash it.

However, it is obvious that both themselves and Song Xuan have overestimated the ability of a few people, and the strength used is big, small, and light, and a few hammers go down, and there is no reaction at all, and the big hammer with the strength will smash the rice everywhere, and Song Xuan who saw it felt distressed for a while.

"Stop, stop~"

Seeing a few groups of demons dancing wildly, Song Xuan also hurriedly stopped them, it was okay to be light, at most it had no effect, but the two people with great strength had already beaten out half a bowl of rice, if they really wanted to fight like this, there were not so many things in the tribe for them to toss.

"Look at it, take your time from small to big!"

"Hammer by hammer, don't be in a hurry!"

Song Xuan had no choice but to demonstrate it again, and then instructed them one by one, so that several women could master the strength.

A few people are not stupid, they have learned it with a little guidance, and the efficiency is also very good, Song Xuan looked at it for a while, and then the rice in it was seventy-seven-eighty-eight.

The rest of the work doesn't need Song Xuan to say, they themselves took out the washed rice, but there is also a lot of rice bran mixed in it, and the unthreshed ones are easy to get, anyway, there are not many at one time, and it won't be too troublesome to pick up, but other things are not easy to get.

Song Xuan knew that rice bran could be used to feed pigs, but now there was no way to use it, and it was already a very good result that this batch of rice could be scooped out, as for how to do it well in the future, Song Xuan still had to think of a way.

However, this is not something to consider now, things want to make rice on a large scale, at least after the autumn harvest next year, there is still a lot of time in this, and even if it can't be used, it will not affect the production in the tribe, and most of the things raised in the tribe are now grassy.

Even if you catch a few wild boars, it's fine, wild boars are omnivores, you don't have to worry about having nothing to feed, as long as you can use the most important part of it.

The actions of several people quickly attracted the attention of others, especially Shi Meng, who saw that the big stone they had worked so hard to polish was originally used on it, and they were also very interested:

"Hey~ Hey, litmus, let me try it too!"

Shi Meng said and wanted to take the wooden hammer.

"No, no, no, this is a divine envoy, smashing you are responsible!"

Listening to Shi Rui's words, Shi Meng could only take his hand back with some embarrassment, he must not be responsible for it, it would be fine if it was an ordinary thing, but this is obviously not an ordinary thing, Song Xuan has been promoting rice alone for a long time, it has been nearly a year since he found it, but Song Xuan has never given up, obviously this is very important in Song Xuan's mind.

"It's not easy to get it, it's not good if it's light or heavy, if you want to play, let the divine envoy teach you!"

However, Shi Rui was afraid that Shi Meng would be a little embarrassed, so he finally explained, but the tone was not too good.

In this regard, Shi Meng could only muttered in his heart:

"What's so hard about smashing a big log?"

Song Xuan, who was not far away, also noticed that there were more and more people gathered here, so he came up and happened to see the scene of Shi Meng being deflated.

Although it is not a difficult task, after all, it is the first time to get it, and it is still a little inappropriate to hand it over to a rough man like Shi Meng, even if they are repeatedly reined in, they can easily crush the rice grains.

Song Xuan also wants to give everyone a good experience for the first time, so it's better to be careful, but after next year, you can let them get it, after all, if the planting is really successful, with rice as the staple food, the daily demand among the tribe will be a large number.

According to one pound a day, it would be enough to scoop two or three hundred pounds of rice, thinking of this, Song Xuan began to dig a pit for Shi Meng:

"It's okay, let them get it first this time, and I'll leave it to you later!"

"Really?"

Shi Meng, who didn't know the truth for a while, was a little happy that Song Xuan handed over such a big thing to him to complete, and hurriedly confirmed with Song Xuan:

"Divine envoy, that's okay, I'll have to do this in the future!"

"Okay!"

The two hit it off.

In Shi Meng's eyes, this is much easier than making a hole in a stone, looking at the rice that keeps rolling under the wooden hammer, and even feels a little fun.

But what he didn't know was what awaited him in the future, but it was a mountain of rice.

Since the time was not early, Song Xuan hurriedly found Shi Yan:

"Yan, you don't have to do too much tonight, well, it's usually half of it!"

Although Song Xuan wanted Shi Yan to do less, he was still a little worried that everyone would not be used to eating, and even if he was not used to doing half of it, he would not go hungry.

"Oracle, is it enough to eat like this?"

Shi Yan has always been in charge of the internal affairs of the tribe, and the cooking is basically done by him with a few women, and he basically knows how much everyone can eat, and this little thing is obviously not enough to satisfy a meal in the tribe.

Song Xuan didn't do much, and said directly:

"It's okay, I'll bring something in a while, come and talk to you first!"

"Also, you cleaned the pot you brought before, and I'll use it later!"

Since Song Xuan said that he could solve it, Shi Yan no longer worried, anyway, people are in the tribe, even if they don't have enough to eat, they can make things quickly.

The pots for cooking rice are also specially customized by Song Xuan and stones, which look much deeper than ordinary ones and are also larger, and each pot is also prepared with a special lid, which can almost be tightly fitted.
