I am a primitive

Sure enough, hiding in the shade and watching others do farm work is comfortable.

This is the same reason that many people like pastoral life.

The pastoral life they like is to wear clean clothes, come to the fields, blow the wind of nature, smell the fragrance of the soil, and feel sorry for the old farmers who are carrying hoes and bowing and weeding non-stop.

When I am interested, I may even recite two poems to praise this beautiful pastoral scenery, and envy the old farmer for having all these intoxicating things.

Once you really integrate into the rural life, come to eat, live and work with the old farmers for a few days, the kind of picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, leisurely seeing Nanshan leisurely, will immediately disappear...

Han Cheng took a few steps outside, looked at the iron-headed people who were bending over to harvest rapeseed in the rapeseed field, and then looked at the threshing field in the yard, turning over the rapeseed logs with a wooden fork, and suddenly felt a little dazed.

There is a feeling of returning to elementary school and working on the wheat threshing field with adults during busy farming.

At that time, every year when wheat was harvested in early summer and peanuts and corn were harvested in autumn, the school would take a one-week farming leave so that they could go back and help their families with summer and autumn harvests.

In the wheat threshing field, he turned the wheat under the sun, or gathered the fallen wheat to the middle of the field, and he did a lot of things.

If at this time, there is a person riding a big beam bicycle with a white foam box behind the car, that would be the most gratifying thing.

The white quilt wrapped in the plastic box was opened, and the white cold mist was transpiring. I took a [-] cents popsicle and licked it carefully. The whole scorching heat seemed to be gone...

The immature wheat is delicious when it is burned with a fire, and the big green grasshoppers in autumn are also delicious, especially the golden eggs that have not yet been released from the stomach, which are eaten in the mouth It's delicious, fragrant, and then bites into a skinny chest, crunchy and chicken-flavored.

Of course, sweet potatoes made from dried cow dung are also a must in childhood...

It's a pity that it will never go away—the childhood that didn't need to worry too much and was very easy to be satisfied...

Han Cheng shook his head, withdrew his thoughts from the past, put all the past in his heart, and looked at everything in front of him and what he needed to face.

After more than two days of drying, the rape spread on the threshing floor has become burnt.

At this time, there were no solid tools such as ironware, and Han Cheng, even a traverser, could not make the stone rollers of the 'milling field'.

There was no other way but to be beaten with a wooden fork.

Every time the wooden fork is shot down, many rapeseed pods will not be able to withstand the severe punishment. They will choose to blow themselves up and die, dedicating the rapeseed that they have bred for a long time.

Under Han Cheng's demonstration, after patting the rapeseed in front of them with a wooden fork for a while, they would use the fork to turn it over and continue beating.

After beating again, the tortured rapeseed will be picked up with a wooden fork and shaken back and forth to loosen them, and then exposed to the hot sun.

And Mu Mu and others continued to pat the rapeseed in other places with a wooden fork.

This is done to prevent the rapeseed from being unevenly sun-dried, and those somewhat damp, beating-resistant rapeseed pods refuse to hand over the hidden rapeseed. After they are squeezed dry by the scorching sun and warm wind, they will be tortured again...

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"Crack, crack, crack..."

After the cracking sound of the wooden stick passing through the air, there was the sound of the wooden fork beating on the rapeseed, which was also mixed with the fine scorching sound of the rapeseed pods exploding and the rapeseed bursting out.

Mu Mu and several other people in the tribe were beating the rape hard.

This is not an easy task. If it were easy, people in later generations would not use oxen and horses to do this work.

From noon until the sun has slanted halfway to the west, the rapeseed in the threshing field is not completely beaten.

Under Han Cheng's guidance, Mu Mu and others picked up the battered, bruised, and empty rape stalks with a wooden fork, and piled them up on the edge of the threshing floor.

When doing this, there is a small detail that needs special attention, that is, you need to shake the rape stalks with a wooden fork before completely shoveling them away. This is to shake the rapeseed in the empty rape stalks come out.

After the rape stalks are picked, a layer of fine rape pods and small, dark brown rapeseeds are left on the ground.

Han Cheng stepped on it with bare feet, slippery and itchy.

The wood and the others started to use a tool to gather the scattered rapeseed to the middle of the threshing field.

This tool is the common 'grabbing rake' in later generations

The so-called rakes are generally made of wood, and their specific structure is similar to that of the second brother's nine-toothed rake.

They are all sticks more than one meter long, with a rake head attached to the front.

The difference is that Zhu Gangguan's nine-toothed rake can not only slay demons and slay demons, but also can be used to plan the land in Gaolaozhuang. This kind of wooden rake can only be used on the 'fighting field'.

Using a wooden fork can only roughly clean out the empty rape stalks, and there will be many fine pieces falling down.

Because the wooden fork has only three teeth, and it is still an old one, the distance between each fork is nearly [-] centimeters. It seems impossible to remove them.

At this time, it is the turn of the rake to play. This house has many teeth and is dense, which is a good tool to deal with these.

The rake is simple in structure and not too difficult to make.

You only need to cut a piece of wood with a diameter of about five centimeters and a length of half a meter, and then use a stone ax to cut out four sides as much as possible. About one and a half centimeters of holes can be drilled about nine.

Because the Qingque Tribe already has a hand-pressed drill, and when studying wooden ladders, Han Cheng came up with a method of using fire to expand the mortise. Now this drilling is not a problem for the Qingque Tribe It's too difficult, it just takes a little time.

These holes need to be drilled through.

After completing these, they found some harder, wet sticks with skins about two and a half centimeters in thickness.

First take a tree stick and put it into the fire, grill the part of one end about ten centimeters, wait for a while, then pull it out from the fire, and insert it into the gap between the big rocks while it is hot Bend in.

It needs to be bent into an arc that is not too curved, and then released after it cools down, the stick will basically maintain this posture and will not go back.

Xunzi said in "Encouraging Learning" that "the rope is straight in the wood, the wheel is like a wheel, and the rules are in the song."Although there are violent ones, those who no longer stand up, and those who don't stand up, so that they can make it happen. This is the method used to make wooden wheels.

Cut off the bent section, and then repeat the previous action until nine wooden sections with similar lengths and arcs are produced before stopping.

Of course, because the technology was not mature enough, when Han Cheng led the lame to do these things before, he made a total of fourteen sticks before he got these nine wooden sticks with similar arcs and basically the same length.

This wooden stick is the teeth on the 'grabbing rake'.

Of course, such teeth cannot be used directly, and further processing is required.

After peeling off the burnt black skin on the outside, one of the ends was tapered.

This was difficult to do before.

At least Lame, who often works with wood, felt that it would take at least two days to polish one end of the nine bent wood to the specification that Shenzi said.

However, what Han Cheng did next was far beyond Lame's expectations.

Because Han Cheng did not use stone tools or other tools to polish the stick as lame had expected, but put the stick into the fire next to him, and let the flames burn the end of the stick that needs to be polished .

Lame was a little worried and looked at the side without blinking with some anticipation, hoping to see the miracle again from Shenzi and learn new things.

The temperature of the flame quickly turned the white stick black, and then it burned.
