Siheyuan: I just want to live

After seeing the third uncle Yan Fugui leave, Chen Feng also returned to his home in the backyard. After returning to the house, he had a quick lunch and then flashed into the space.

In this spacious space, Chen Feng showed his diligence and creativity. He first carefully moved the heavy electric welder to the roof of the villa, and then moved the hard steel plates and strong steel bars that he had exchanged for wild boars today. After completing these preparations, Chen Feng skillfully powered on the electric welder and put on a protective mask, ready to start a wonderful welding journey.

He devoted himself to the work with full concentration, skillfully bending the thin steel bars into the required shape and constructing a stable frame structure. Then, he skillfully used the steel plates to fit them tightly inside. After an hour of hard work, a huge water tank with a capacity of up to four cubic meters was perfectly presented on the roof. Although it looks a bit crude, it does not affect its practical use at all.

Afterwards, Chen Feng found a bottle of bright red spray paint from under the shed in the yard, and carefully sprayed a layer of anti-rust paint on the inner wall of the water tank, giving it a brand new glow. After waiting for the paint to dry, he connected the water pipe and successfully connected the water pipe to the villa. When he gently waved his hands and took a ball of clear water from above the space, his heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment. As the water flowed continuously into the water tank, the water tank was gradually filled. Finally, Chen Feng went downstairs with satisfaction, turned on the faucet, and watched the clear water flow smoothly and could be used normally, and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

Next, Chen Feng got busy again. He sent the welding machine back downstairs and started to assemble the simple stone breaker. He assembled a huge diamond saw blade with a diameter of two meters for the stone breaker. With the help of spatial ability, this process did not encounter too much difficulty. Everything seemed so smooth.

Chen Feng carefully moved the stone breaker to the corner of the wall, then took out the hose and connected it to water. Wastewater flowed continuously from the drainage outlet in the yard to the fields outside the yard. After everything was ready, Chen Feng turned on the power and pressed the switch. The stone breaker started working, breaking up the hard basalt to make a pair of stone mills and a set of stone rollers.

When the stone breaker started to cut the first stone, Chen Feng did not stop his work. He skillfully picked up the electric welder and welded the screw, nut, two thick steel plates and I-shaped steel together to form a simple manual oil press.

This oil press is not too tall, and the main body is only about one meter high when folded. At the top, Chen Feng carefully welded a 32-centimeter-long snowflake-shaped handle with 30-gauge rebar, and then connected it to a long steel pipe. In this way, it is easier to squeeze the oil cake by turning the screw when pressing the oil.

However, Chen Feng noticed that the screw thread was relatively small, so he didn't have to worry about the rebound problem. But he couldn't help but wonder: When the pressure reaches a certain level, will the tray below be welded? After thinking for a while, he decided to make a solid platform with basalt and place it under the oil press to ensure safety and reliability.

By the way, I found some thin steel plates and welded them to make a disc with a diameter of two meters and a height of about fifty centimeters. This disc will be placed under the millstone to receive flour. In addition, there is a funnel specifically for storing wheat.

On the stone calender, the first cut was successfully completed. Chen Feng quickly adjusted his position and started the second cut. At the same time, he also started to process the wood and assembled the gears one by one. These parts will be used to build the windmill.

In this way, Chen Feng worked non-stop, building the mill while opening the stone. Time passed quickly without him noticing, and in the blink of an eye, five or six hours had passed in this space. At this time, Chen Feng's mill was only one step away from installing the stone mill, and on the stone breaker side, the stone mill and stone mill components had also been cut into several polyhedral stone plates and stone pillars.

The diameters of the disks vary, two are 1.5 meters and the other is 1.8 meters, and their heights are all 30 centimeters. As for the pillars, they are 80 centimeters long and 50 centimeters in diameter.

At present, there is still a lack of a stone platform for placing the stone mill assembly and a stone for padding the oil press. The requirements for the stone platform are not high, as long as the two sides are flat and the stone mill assembly can be placed stably.

The stone used to pad the oil press needs to be made into a special trapezoidal shape, with a height of 30 cm, a width of 35 cm, a length of 60 cm at the top, and a length of 40 cm at the bottom. In addition, the top of the stone needs to be cut into an eight-shaped opening on both sides at 40 cm, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty of production.

After carefully selecting a suitable stone, Chen Feng decided to start making the stone platform first, while the base stone for the oil press would be left for later.

At this moment, Chen Feng suddenly felt a strong sense of hunger in his abdomen. He subconsciously glanced at the time and realized that he had been working hard in the space for more than six hours! No wonder he was so hungry.

Since the number of adult rabbits was limited, they needed to be kept to reproduce and could not be eaten; and there were only three chickens left, which could not be easily slaughtered. After much thought, only the fish were in large numbers and could be enjoyed without worry. So Chen Feng picked a herring weighing about five pounds and took it out of the space to remove the space's preservation ability. However, when he tried to grab the fish, the fish struggled violently, and finally managed to break free from his hand and fell to the ground.

Chen Feng stared at the fish on the ground, which was jumping and struggling, with his eyes wide open, thinking about something in his heart. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he took out another fish from the space again and removed the space preservation ability on it. Surprisingly, the new fish was as full of vitality and energy as the one on the ground.

At this moment, Chen Feng finally understood - it turns out that the space preservation ability can not only make the time, life and thinking of a living thing stagnant, but also as long as this preservation ability is removed, the living thing can immediately return to its previous lively state.

"I wonder if the same will happen if I take people in..." A thought flashed through Chen Feng's mind, but he immediately denied it, "No, no, this is too risky. It will be troublesome if others find out that I own the secret of the space!" After thinking it through, Chen Feng decided to give up this dangerous idea.

After figuring out everything, Chen Feng threw another fish into the pile of fish and continued to use the space preservation ability to preserve them. Then, he picked up the fish on the ground and walked into the kitchen to start processing it. After killing the fish and skewering it with branches, Chen Feng lit a pile of firewood in the yard, and then sat in front of the fire and leisurely grilled the fish.

After a short while, the first fish was grilled. Chen Feng ate heartily until his belly was full. After a hearty meal, he spread the ashes of the burnt firewood evenly on the field, adjusted the position of the stone, and prepared to start the second cut.

Chen Feng no longer focused on the stone breaker, but picked up the angle grinder, skillfully replaced the diamond saw blade, and devoted himself to the finishing work of the stone mill and stone mill components. He carefully polished each stone and carefully trimmed their edges into a perfect circle. Then, he found the right tools and carefully polished the stone mill components until their surface was as smooth as a mirror and round and smooth. This treatment not only improves the overall aesthetics, but also facilitates the uniform grinding of grain.

At this time, the stone platform has been completed. Chen Feng cleverly used the scraps left over from the previous stone mill to make the final stone pad. He accurately adjusted the position of the stone, started the machine, and quickly returned to the millstone to continue focusing on processing the grooves on the millstone.

When Chen Feng successfully completed the production of the grinding disc, the stone calciner had just cut the stone pads needed for the oil press. Then, he used his exquisite jade carving skills to open a precise water channel at the bell mouth so that the oil could be smoothly collected here when pressing oil in the future.

Chen Feng looked around and confirmed that all the work was almost perfect. Then he carefully moved the stone mill under the windmill and connected it properly. At the same time, the stone roller was also placed next to the mill and successfully connected to the windmill. At this point, the entire project was basically completed.

After seeing that all the equipment was installed, Chen Feng walked into the house, picked up half a bag of wheat, and prepared to try to grind flour.

He began to use his spatial ability to make the air flow, thus achieving the effect of wind. Chen Feng's mind moved, and the airflow in the space began to flow and blew towards the windmill. The blades of the windmill gradually began to turn, and this force was transmitted to the stone mill inside the mill and the stone roller outside. The windmill outside turned faster and faster, and the millstone inside also increased its speed accordingly.

Chen Feng carefully poured the wheat into the funnel on the millstone. The wheat slid accurately into the hole in the center of the millstone through the small hole at the bottom of the funnel. Before long, snow-white flour began to emerge from all around the millstone and fell on the iron plate below. He reached out and grabbed a handful of flour, and after a careful observation, he found that there was some bran mixed in it. It seems that it needs to be filtered with a gong cloth to get purer flour. After all the wheat in the funnel was ground, Chen Feng stopped the windmill and did not continue to add new wheat. After all, today is just an experiment. After buying a suitable gong cloth tomorrow, he will officially grind the flour.

Seeing that the windmill could operate normally, Chen Feng finally felt relieved. He no longer had to worry about not having white flour to eat in the future!

After leaving the mill, Chen Feng began to plan how to place the oil press. After careful consideration, he decided to place it in the center of the yard, so that by using the booster rod, he could use the lever principle to improve work efficiency.

Then, Chen Feng skillfully welded two 30-centimeter-long leg support structures for the oil press with a triangle iron, and carefully moved it to the center of the yard. Then, he cleverly inserted a stone slab into the bottom of the oil press and found that the size matched perfectly! Next, Chen Feng held an electric drill and accurately drilled six holes in the triangle iron and the ground, three on each side, each in the right position. Then, he found a few expansion bolts and fixed the oil press firmly to the ground.

After completing all this, Chen Feng looked around and confirmed that all the tasks for today had been successfully completed. He subconsciously glanced at the time and was surprised to find that he had spent more than ten hours in this space. Finally, he once again reviewed the results of his hard work, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and then he left this space contentedly.
