After entering the bird tribe, I want to farm

Several major tribes saved enough firewood and other materials, and finally burned out the glass and tiles.

Nanyao's vacant house needs to start installing doors, windows and tiling.

Last year, Nan Yao and Bai Wu worked together to lay tiles and install windows for Bai Wu's house. He is a skilled hand, and it is no problem to install doors, windows and tiles for the house alone.

Others in the tribe are not very good at these things, so while asking to come over to help him now, they also seize the opportunity to learn.

Bai Wu also came to help.

To be honest, it is much easier for them to build a house this year than last year. It is not because there are more people and strength this year, or anything else, but because they have all kinds of useful tools this year-hammers, nails, door panels, etc.

These tools save them a lot of trouble.

With the metal tools and the great strength of the orcs, they finished all the tiles on the doors and windows within two days.

Standing outside the door, Bai Wu looked at the five spacious and bright houses, feeling very unbelievable, "Is this how it's built?"

Nan Yao said, "Wait for the house to dry for a few days, then move the furniture in, and then you can live in it."

Bai Wu clenched her fists tightly, "Congratulations!"

Nan Yao kissed him and said in a low voice, "Congratulations."

Bai Wu smirked and kissed him.

Bai Wu looked around with great interest, looked at the building materials next to the house that were too late to clean up and said: "If there is a lot of lime and cement this year, you can paint another layer of lime on the outside of the wall. Put a layer of cement on the ground, it will look like it will cleaner."

"If it's too late this year, you can do it next year."

"Yes, next year we can renovate the yard and see if we need to fence the yard and plant some plants outside the yard. By the way, there is also a kitchen. We can try to make a real stove instead of just a firepit. "

"Fine. Any other good ideas?"

"It's far away from the mountain, do you want to dig a well?"

Nan Yao listened carefully to what Bai Wu said, and nodded in agreement.

The more Bai Wu thought about it, the more he felt that there were still many things he could do, so he simply said, "Wait a minute, I'll get a notebook, let's plan it out."

Seeing his bright eyes, Nan Yao lowered his head and kissed him again, "You can make plans after dinner, don't be in a hurry."

"Okay, let's plan together tonight."

The sun is about to set, and it's almost time to make dinner again.

The two walked down the mountain hand in hand.

When Bai Wu walked down the mountain, he saw crocodile meat and other bacon hanging from the branches, and a pile of date pits and other wild vegetables piled up in the open space. He was very proud of his stock.

"No matter how cold it is this year, we should not be short of food."

"There should be no shortage of several major tribes."

"I think the wheat can be harvested in ten or so days at most. When the time comes, the wheat will be harvested and dried. We can make various snacks about flour in winter."

"The rice is almost ready to harvest."

"Late rice should be slower. I don't know whether to frost or harvest rice first."

When going down the mountain, the two went around to the small river and said hello to the two little dolphins playing in the river.

The two little guys were having fun in the river. After seeing them, they swam over quickly and turned around at their feet.

Bai Wu touched them one by one, and even helped them scratch their heads.

Touching and feeling, Bai Wu stared at the water surface and suddenly didn't move.

Nan Yao stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, "What's wrong? Suddenly this expression."

Bai Wu suddenly came back to his senses, and grabbed Nan Yao's arm, "I thought about what we are going to do!"

Nan Yao didn't follow his train of thought, "What?"

"Water peg. We can make a water peg!"

Bai Wu stared at the river and said quickly: "The water flow here is big enough, and the river is deep enough. We still have enough materials to make a large water reel!"

"Speak slowly, I don't seem to understand."

"I can't explain it just by talking about it, let's go up and I'll draw a blueprint for you!"

Bai Wu didn't even want to walk, so she pulled Nan Yao back into the animal shape quickly.

The two flew up to the mountain with a splash, their family members were not there, Bai Wu went into the utility room, found a pen and paper, pulled Nan Yao to sit by the firepit, brushed a few strokes, and drew a simple water reel for him. .

In Bai Wu's previous life, the water reel had a long history, and he could see it occasionally.

The water reel is a simple instrument for utilizing water resources, and its structure is not complicated. It probably requires a vertical water wheel, a plate leaf, a horizontal shaft, a dial and a reed head.

The orc tribes have pestles, and the stone mortar of the Baiwu family can also be regarded as a simple pestle.

Bai Wu showed the water wheel to Nanyao, "Look at this water wheel, if it is evenly covered with boards, once the water flows, the water wheel will rotate continuously, and then drive the horizontal axis, the dial on the horizontal axis The board will move the pestle and let the pestle start to work."

"It's interesting. Is this kind of water reel to be built in places where the current is relatively fast? I'm afraid the river below our mountain will not work."

"The mountain is the closest to where we live. It is convenient to build it here. You can try it. If it doesn't work, we will move the parts to other places. It's not very complicated anyway."

Bai Wu brushed a few more strokes and drew a picture, "Don't we have a lot of iron nails now? For the more important horizontal axis, we can ask the Eagle Clan to help us make it."

"Use it to pound rice after it's built?"

"Not only rice, but also jujube pits. Don't we think that jujube pits are hard to crack? If there is a water pestle, put them under the pestle head and pound them from morning to night. I don't believe that they can't be smashed."

The more Bai Wu thought about it, the more feasible it became.

"Not only jujube stones, but we can also modify it and build a special water mill for grinding noodles. In the future, we can grind noodles, rice, and medicinal materials. We don't need to worry about anything."

Using water power is much more convenient than using animal power. Water power is almost once and for all. To feed livestock, you have to domesticate, feed them, clean up the excrement and take care of them.

Bai Wu didn't want to cook any more, so he brushed a few more strokes, "I've never made a water pestle, please help me take a look, what parts do we need?"

The two of them leaned their heads together and slowly drew on the white paper.

Bai Wu was not familiar with this thing, so the two painted and changed it several times, not only considering the bearing capacity of the parts, but also the service life of the parts.

Among the parts used in the water reel, some metal parts must be used, otherwise it will be less durable.

There is no need for too many metal parts, after all, they are prone to rust due to frequent contact with water.

It's a pity that the texture of black gold is too hard, and its ductility is average. Otherwise, if you use black gold directly to make parts, the effect will be very good.

The two muttered to each other, determined the required parts, and after drawing in detail, they took the paper to find the Eagle Clan people.

It was getting dark earlier now, and when they arrived at the Eagle Tribe, it was already dark.

They went directly to Shan Ying, the patriarch of the Eagle Clan, and proposed to ask the Eagle Clan to make these parts, and discuss the payment by the way.

Shanying carefully looked at the parts on the paper, "Master Wu, are you going to make something new?"

Bai Wu replied cautiously: "Try it, it will definitely succeed."

Shanying: "We don't want the reward, can we help you and learn something by the way?"

Bai Wu was surprised, "Are you interested in this thing? Do you know what it is?"

"What you make must be a good thing."

When Baiwu built a house last year, the Eagle tribe heard about it, but they were not interested. This year, everyone has to build a house, so they have to go to them to learn.

Including glass, tiles, lime, etc., are all things that Bai Wu made first, and everyone followed suit belatedly.

Shan Ying is sure that no matter what Bai Wu wants to do, he will never go wrong if he learns from him.

Seeing that he was confident in himself, Bai Wu smiled, "That's fine too. You guys make the parts first, and I'll think about it. After thinking about it, let's go and test it together."

The news that Bai Wu was going to make new things quickly spread, and other tribes came to him one after another, offering to learn new things from them.

Bai Wu agreed to the Eagle Clan, and then to his own clan, so it would be a good idea not to agree to other tribes.

In the end, each clan sent two people over, and they accepted a total of 20 apprentices, including Ta and An, a total of [-] disciples.

Among the 18 people, there are orcs and sub-orcs, all of them are bold, cautious and loyal young adults.

Bai Wu and Nan Yao took them to cut trees first.

They look for trees that are hard and not easily corroded.

After the trees were cut back, they still painted them with oil and did anti-corrosion treatment.

The wood has to be cut into boards and made into various shapes, many of which require a baking step, which takes a lot of time and effort.

Bai Wu asked everyone not to delay hunting, just come over every afternoon.

Bai Wu and Nan Yao themselves did not delay their business.

Day by day they would pull out the various parts, put them aside, and put them together when all the parts were ready.

The first water reel, Bai Wu plans to make it at the foot of his home.

Everyone come to learn their skills, and there is no opinion.

Who knows, the first time they installed it carefully, the water reel did not move at all.

The flow of the river below their mountain was too slow to move the paddle to move the water reel.

Shui Dui stood in place, motionless.

A group of people stared at the water pestle, but the water pestle remained motionless.

Bai Wu scratched his forehead with his fingers, "Let's change another place."

Everyone laughed and encouraged each other.

Bai Wu wasn't too upset, and immediately led someone to change places.

Unexpectedly, it would not work in another place. The water wheel they made was too big, and the water in that place was too shallow, so they still couldn't drive the water wheel.

They changed places several times, and finally found a waterfall near Baiwu's house, changed the water wheel, changed the closed water wheel into an open water wheel, and finally made this water reel by using the momentum of the waterfall.

They made three water piles in a row, and the base is stone. Every time the water pestle hits the stone mortar, they can hear the sound of thumping, and the sound travels far.

Bai Wu was lucky that the place they were looking for was far away from home, otherwise when using the water reel, the water reel would be impacted day and night, and the noise would be enough to make people feel irritable.

Seeing that Bai Wu and Nan Yao were silent, An anxiously said, "Is it ready now? Hurry up and try it out with the materials!"

Everyone came back to God:

"Yes, yes, what should I pound for the first time when I get the ingredients?"

"Does Mr. Wu still have new rice that hasn't been pounded yet, this time to pound new rice?"

"It's okay to pound medicinal materials, doesn't it mean that you can use a pestle to pound medicinal materials?"

Everyone started a heated discussion with each other, and everyone had a look of excitement on their faces.

Bai Wu and Nan Yao looked at each other, and said with a smile, "There are three peepers, come together with three things."

"Which three?"

"Rice, herbs, and dates."

Kishi immediately said, "I'll fly home and get it."

The people around him also responded.

Everyone carried their baskets on their backs and followed An to go home to get things.

Soon, they brought back rice, medicinal materials and jujube stones.

Three items are placed in three stone mortars.

They stacked the pestles back to their original positions, and the horizontal axis of the vertical water wheel rotated with the rotation of the water wheel, driving the dial to raise the pestles and lower them.

The stone pestle was hammered into the stone mortar, making a loud noise.

"Bang - bang - bang -" every sound seemed to hit everyone's hearts directly,

The medicinal materials in the stone mortar are smashed first, but the position of the pestle head is the same every time.

Everyone had to hold long wooden sticks and carefully move the objects in the mortar so that they were evenly stressed.

The medicinal materials were quickly washed into dregs. They picked up the pestle and poured out the medicinal dregs inside.

Everyone stared wide-eyed and observed carefully, and kneaded it with their hands.

"It's really finely pounded."

"It takes a little longer than when we pound it ourselves. The advantage is that we don't have to do it ourselves, and we don't feel tired at all."

"Master Wu, can a lid be added on top to prevent the medicinal materials inside from splashing out?"

"I think it is possible. When we make the second stone pestle, the water pestle inside can be made into a shape with a big belly and a small mouth."

Everyone took turns to express their opinions, and the discussion was extremely heated. Bai Wu took a look at it and felt that the water reel was very successful this time.

"Don't be too happy, let's see if the rice can be crushed?"

"It goes without saying that it will definitely work. I can even see the gray-white grains being pounded out."

"Jujube stones seem to be fine too, I can see the nuts inside."

Jujube stones are notoriously difficult to handle. When everyone heard that date stones can also be used, they hurried over to look at the date stones in the stone mortar.

These hard and huge jujube cores gradually fell apart under repeated pounding, exposing the nuts inside.

The downside is that the kernels and husks get mixed together, and they have to spend a lot of effort to separate the mixture later.

Bai Wu was very satisfied when he saw this situation, and it was much better than they imagined to be able to smash it into pieces. At worst, they would filter and pick it later.

"Then I declare that this experiment——is a great success." Bai Wu turned his head and smiled at everyone, "During this time, everyone has worked hard."

"It's not hard, you work harder."

"This water pestle is too powerful, Mr. Wu is indeed our wise man."

"I also absorbed the wisdom of my predecessors."

"Have other tribes made water peepers before?"

"should be."

The water pestle was finally made, and the thing they wanted to be pounded was successfully pounded. This is worthy of great celebration.

The young people hooked their shoulders and said they wanted to have a good meal together.

Bai Wu smiled and expressed willingness to provide the sauce.

In the end, this originally planned small-scale dinner party turned into a big dinner party for the nine tribes.

Everyone seems to be just looking for an excuse to have a good meal. They not only celebrate the making of the water pestle, but also celebrate the growing affection of the nine tribes.

The water pestle was finally made, and there was finally a way to dispose of the huge pile of jujube stones stored by Baiwu's family.

The next day, the whole family brought the jujube stones to the side of the water reel, pounded the jujube stones in three ways, and sat by the water to do a simple screening.

The nuts are very high in oil and they pan fry the nut latte from the sieve and send it to the oil press.

There is not much oil meal, which only accounts for [-]%, and more is barrels of pale yellow seed date oil.

Date oil has almost no peculiar smell, but has a light aroma, tastes very mild, and has a light creamy taste.

Bai Wu tried to fry vegetables with this oil once, and found that the vegetables fried were better than those fried with animal oil.

Seed date oil can be used not only for cooking, but also for moisturizing skin. Baiwu has developed many uses for it at home.

Bai Wu also plans to use this batch of oil to make a batch of soap. This batch of oil is milder, and the soap effect must be better.

Other tribes also built water reels one after another. Everyone made full use of the functions of water reels to crush various things, including jujubes.

The major tribes also squeezed the seed date oil and autumn fruit oil.

The tribes are thriving.

However, metal parts are needed to make water reels, and the major tribes owe a lot of parts to Baiwu and Yingzu.

I'm afraid it will take a long time for them to pay off.

Anyway, they are all brother tribes, and the Eagle tribe is not in a hurry.

After the water pestle is ready, Baiwu also uses it to process various foods, one of which is rice cakes.

Their rice is all new rice from this year. Once boiled with water, it will be fragrant and soft with distinct grains.

The rice cakes made from this kind of rice are also very soft and sweet, especially the rice cakes pounded with a water pestle. You don’t need to worry about wasting energy, and they can be pounded very soft.

Store the milled rice cakes in water. When you want to eat them, cut them into thin slices, or fry them or bake them, and brush them with the sauce for a unique taste.

By the time they finished working on the water reel, the crops in the field were almost grown, especially the lotus root they had planted before.

The lotus root in their house has only grown a few lotus pods, and now the lotus pods are all withered, even the lotus leaves are withered, and it looks very bleak in the paddy field.

Bai Wu felt that it was almost time, so he took Nan Yao to dig lotus root together.

Their paddy field is by the river, and the water needed to grow lotus root is relatively deep. When the two of them went to the field, the water was as deep as their thighs.

Bai Wu was stimulated by the cold water and gasped, "Hiss, now I really feel that autumn is here."

"You were trembling when you went down the river yesterday to catch water and grass."

"Isn't that soaking in the water for a long time? The water feels really cold today."

The afternoon sun has no heat.

They pulled up their skirts and stood bare-legged in the lotus root field. When the wind blew, a lot of goose bumps popped up on Bai Wu's arms.

They also had to bend over and reach out and feel in the muck.

The silt was cold, and it felt even colder.

Bai Wu touched it for a while, his fingers were almost numb from the cold, Nan Yao touched his hand under the water and drove him to the shore.

Bai Wu said stubbornly: "Not so delicate, besides, we only have a few lotus roots, and we'll finish digging in a while. I'll dig it with you."

"It doesn't work if you don't have a few, you go to the shore and wait."

Bai Wu was forcefully driven to the shore by Nanyao, so she had to peel the lotus pods on the shore.

The lotus seeds inside were already very old, so Baiwu washed his hands and peeled off two, then removed the lotus heart inside, ate one for himself, and fed Nanyao another.

The taste of lotus seeds is relatively raw and crisp, a bit like peanuts, but harder than peanuts, and tastes okay.

Bai Wu looked at the lotus pods in his hand with pity, if there were more lotus seeds, they could make lotus seed soup.

When Bai Wu was peeling the lotus pods on the bank, two little dolphins swam over from a distance, turned around on the bank, and let Bai Wu play with them coquettishly.

Bai Wu really didn't want to touch the water today, so he knelt down and touched the heads of the two porpoises, "Today is really not good, you go and play, I'll cook something delicious for you tonight."

"Ling—"

"Tomorrow when the sun is bright, we can try it. The mountain wind is too cold now."

Bai Wu rubbed his arms. In fact, when there is no wind, it feels okay, but when there is wind, it feels very uncomfortable.

He felt okay when he was underwater, and the water temperature was acceptable to him, but it was more uncomfortable on the shore, because the wind was much colder than the water.

He is willing to try winter swimming, but there is no way to accept the wind blowing on the shore after winter swimming.

The two little guys whimpered and acted coquettishly in the water.

Bai Wu smiled and comforted them for a while.

Nan Yao threw the lotus root to the shore, and Bai Wu washed the lotus root along the way, and then cut off the meat of the lotus root to feed the two little guys.

Bai Wu is not the kind of parent who can't stick to his principles. No matter how coquettish the two little porpoises are, he feels that they are playing pretty well, so he won't play with the two little ones anymore.

The two little guys still patted the water angrily, threw them all over the water, and were beaten up by Bai Wu.

Hit him lightly with a stick, and Bai Wu puts his strength back, making sure that it only hurts and doesn't hurt him.

After digging the lotus roots, they cleaned up the lotus leaves and pods, and carried them to the mountain.

Bai Wu had been craving lotus root for a long time, so he went to fetch a set of cured pork ribs for dinner, and prepared to make a lotus root soup with cured ribs.

Nan Yao helped him from the sidelines.

Cured ribs are actually better than fresh ribs, and may have a special flavor, which tastes much more fragrant than fresh ribs.

Baiwu specially made a big pot full, one for their family, one for the two little wolves, and another for the two little porpoises.

The pork rib soup tastes very mellow and thick, delicious and filling.

The family ate lotus root ribs soup on an autumn night and felt very satisfied.

When Bai Wu and Nan Yao went down with pork ribs and lotus root soup, they didn't see the two little dolphins in the river.

Bai Wu's heart skipped a beat, feeling that something was wrong.

Things were just as he expected.

They called out to the shore for a long time, and then changed back to their animal form. They searched around several times, but they still didn't see any trace of the two little guys.

Seeing that it was already dark and they still couldn't find the two little guys, Bai Wu couldn't help feeling anxious and flustered.

"These two guys were angry in the afternoon, and then ran away from home willfully."

Bai Wu thought of the various cases of teenagers running away from home that he saw in his previous life, and felt like he was about to spit out a mouthful of old blood.

He just praised the two little guys for being more sensible than before, and that's what the two little guys did for him.

Nan Yao comforted, "Maybe I just went out to play and forgot the time."

"How is this possible? No matter how much they go out to play, they will never forget to come back to eat." Bai Wu stretched out his hand and pointed to the snacks hanging on the tree for the two little dolphins, "Look. They don't have any food hanging on it." finish eating."

"Wait here for a while, maybe they will come back soon."

"No, I can't wait. I have to find them. Let's find them again, or I'll be worried to death."

When things got to this point, Bai Wu didn't care if he would trouble the tribe.

He asked his father to help him inform the tribe, and then asked the orcs in the tribe to go out with them to find the two little guys.

These two little guys are their family members, even if they are wayward, they still have to look for them.

Otherwise, the little one may feel neglected and become less communicative in the future.
