Chapter 56 Making stone mills and fans, and harvesting wheat
"I got it, I got it, old man, I don't plan to eat for free, so I can't give me a little brat about the little girl's film."

Uncle Ge gave Shi Miao an angry look.

This little girl probably clashed with him in the film, and she would feel uncomfortable if she didn't say a few words to him.

"Okay, it's getting late, everyone has a lot of things to do tomorrow, if you have anything to say, we'll talk about it tomorrow, let's rest first."

"Ah."

Everyone nodded, each found a good position in the cave and continued to sleep.

Shi Miao took out her blanket from the travel bag, put it against the corner of the wall and lay down on it.

Jin Jin and Ari saw that there was no fight, so they nestled at Shi Miao's feet, found a comfortable angle and closed their eyes.

Seeing that everyone said that they have rested, everyone's eyes on him disappeared, Uncle Ge was full of aggrieved face, he found a corner to put his little ones away, and then lay down next to his little ones and closed his eyes. eyeballed.

The next day.

Because everyone went to bed late last night, except for Gu Ao and Uncle Ge, everyone woke up after eight o'clock.

After all, Uncle Ge is getting old. Although he didn't sleep until after one o'clock last night, he woke up completely at six o'clock this morning.

When the three women woke up, they couldn't help but be a little surprised to see that the old and the young outside the cave were preparing breakfast in harmony without saying a word.

"Yo, are you awake?"

Seeing Shi Miao and the others come out of the cave, Uncle Ge smiled and showed his big yellow teeth that he hadn't brushed for days.

"Ah."

A few people washed their faces with the cold water in the pool, because they didn't find willow branches for the time being, Shi Miao and the others could only simply rinse their mouths for the time being.

Breakfast was prepared by Gu Ao. He simply cooked a pot of mushroom soup, but because of the addition of onion, ginger and salt, everyone drank it with relish.

"Shi Miao, we have cleared an open space of about [-] square meters over the past two days. We have also prepared the shovel and broom. Are you going to make a fan today?"

After filling her stomach, Gu Tianjiao looked at Shi Miao and opened her mouth slowly.

"Well, originally the wooden manual fan was left to us to figure out, but it's different now, Uncle Ge can do carpentry, and he also has carpentry tools in his hand, so this matter will be left to him in his spare time these two days It has been made. And we, I see that the stones you have recovered are just the right size, and they can be used to make stone mills after they are chiseled."

Shi Miao spoke in a good mood.

Uncle Ge looked at Shi Miao in surprise: "Why do you use it as a fan and how big is it?"

"Use the wind to raise the wheat."

Hearing Uncle Ge's words, Shi Miao knew he would do it.

Involuntarily, she looked at Uncle Ge with a gentle look in her eyes.

"Wheat? Is there any wheat here?"

Hearing Shi Miao's words, Uncle Ge couldn't sit still.

Wheat, the greenhouse genetically modified wheat researched by the Water Blue Star Alliance, the taste is really unflattering, and he has not tasted the white flour for many years.

"Well, there is a large wheat field nearby, and it will be harvested in two days. We have cleared the open space to prepare the wheat for drying, but the external wind alone may not be enough to peel the wheat out."

"Understood! Help me chop some trees and come here, and I will make a big enough fan by the end of tomorrow!"

In order to eat flour, Uncle Ge suddenly got excited.

Beef noodles, fried noodles, hot dry noodles, spicy noodles, topped noodles...

Just thinking about it makes one's blood boil.

"Well, I'll leave this matter to Tianjiao. Do you have tools for chiseling stones?"

Shi Miao looked at Uncle Ge with raised eyebrows and continued.

The stone mill includes an upper stone grinding disc and a lower stone grinding disc, and the contact surfaces of the two grinding discs must be chiseled with neatly arranged grinding teeth for grinding materials.The middle part of the grinding disc should be chiseled with a groove, and a certain gap should be left in the middle part with the groove directly opposite the upper and lower grinding discs. Under the rotation of the upper grinding disc, the materials are driven along the bore and enter the grinding ring surface at the edge.

And to achieve this, chiseling stones must be done.

"Of course there are, wait for me to find them for you."

As he said, Uncle Ge quickly ran into the cave, and after a while, he took out several chisels, each of which was different, including flat chisels, oblique chisels, round chisels and diamond chisels.

"Hey, all the tools that can be used to chisel stones are here. They are all my old buddies. You should take good care of them."

"Okay! Aunt Liu and I will go to cut the millstone first, and Tianjiao will help you cut down the tree first, and then come back to help us. Gu Ao will assist you, and by the way, the two of you will prepare today's lunch."

Shi Miao nodded, took the chisels of different shapes from Uncle Ge's hand, and went to chisel stones without talking nonsense.

Although there are chisels, it is not easy to chisel out stones.

Those stones were of irregular state of mind. Shi Miao and Liu Ailing each held a stone and drew a circle of about the same size with grass juice, and then began to chisel.

It took a whole day to grind the two big stones into a round shape.

But the middle channel still hasn't had time to get it done.

Chiseling stones is a grind and requires patience. At night, Shi Miao, who used points to strengthen her physical fitness, had a lot of blisters on her hands again, and Liu Ailing did not give up.

The next day, it took another morning to drill the upper hole of the millstone.

Later, because there was no iron, Shi Miao could only choose to use stones to chisel a stand to fix the stone mill. With the existence of the sleeve, the two leaves are combined, and the lower leaf is fixed, so that the upper leaf can successfully rotate around the axis in reverse.

After finishing the stone mill, Uncle Ge also made a two-meter-high wooden pedal fan, which can help the fan rotate by continuously stepping on the pedal.

Gu Tianjiao is relatively strong. When she stepped on the pedal and the fan turned to a strong wind, everyone's eyes were shining.

Another day passed.

Gu Ao stayed behind and was responsible for grinding the olives brought back by Shi Miao in a millstone to grind out the oil, while the other four went to the wheat field with tools, and Shi Miao and Gu Tianjiao cut the wheat batch after batch. Uncle Ge and Liu Ailing are responsible for carrying the wheat to an open space with sufficient light, and the other is to spread all the wheat in the open space so that the wheat can be fully exposed to the sun.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the wheat field was harvested.

When the golden straw covered the entire open space, everyone went back satisfied.

"Shi Miao, by the way, where have Ari and Jin Jin been for the past two days? Aren't these two little things the most clingy to you? How could the dragons see each other these two days?"

Thinking that the two little things didn't come back last night, Liu Ailing spoke with some concern.

"Don't worry, they'll be fine. Jin Jin was born here, so he should be very familiar with it. As for Ari, when he comes to a strange place, he should go out and get acquainted with the area."
