Chapter 104 Pedal thresher
"Didn't Zhang's family raise a lot of fish in the paddy field? In the past two days, their family caught all the fish in the field. If there were too many fish, they sent them to the workshop for us to help deal with. Now they are doing What about dace in black bean sauce?"

"Grass carp, carp, big head carp and the like are basically used to make fish balls, and dace are all used to make dace in black bean sauce. Not to mention, the recipe given by Zhang is really delicious. Don't talk about you, I'm hungry." Qin Chuncheng said with a smile.

Hearing what he said, Qin Hongshan asked expectantly, "Uncle Chuncheng, do you want to sell the black bean dace you made for brother Mu Zhang's family?"

Speaking of which, Qin Hongshan said excitedly, "If I want to sell it, I will buy two cans. This smell is really delicious."

The situation of Qin Hongshan's family is still good. His father and his brothers are capable of making money, and he himself is also very capable, so he has enough money to buy what he likes to eat.

Just like the tofu, yuba, bean curd, fermented bean curd, tofu puffs, etc. made by the tofu workshop before, he would come here from time to time to buy some and go back to have a pot with his family, so this time he knew that the tofu workshop actually made it. He also wanted to buy two cans of canned dace in black bean sauce.

Qin Chuncheng shook his head and said, "I don't know about that either. Azhang just handed over the fish and the recipe to us for help in processing, and I don't know if he plans to sell the canned fish."

Seeing that he couldn't get an answer from Qin Chuncheng, Qin Hongshan decided to go to Qin Muzhang to ask him if he had any plans to sell the canned dace with tempeh. He also wanted to buy some canned food.

Qin Chuncheng looked at his running figure, and after thinking about it, he felt that if such a delicious canned fish could be bought and eaten, he would be willing.

Recently, because he became the steward and person in charge of the tofu workshop, his salary is a bit higher than that of the workers in the workshop. After earning the income, he is not so stingy anymore. Seeing such a good thing as dace in black bean curd, he also wants to buy it and taste it have a taste.

Qin Hongshan really went to Qin Muzhang's house to find someone, only to find that everyone in their family had gone to the ground, except Qin Muyu, Qin Xiaobao, and Chen Mozhu, who were still teaching and reviewing at the school, two children about three years old, everyone They all went to work.

Seeing that there was no one at home, Qin Hongshan ran to Qin Muzhang's paddy field, and sure enough, she saw a group of people busy harvesting rice there.

Qin Hongshan watched a group of people cutting rice with a sickle in front, and a few people in the back surrounded a wooden lump with a humming sound, and put bundles of rice into it. After taking it out, they found the rice on it It's been taken off.

The few men who helped threshing the rice looked excited, each of them looked extremely happy, like a child who found some interesting toy.

But these people are all grown men, not to mention those young people in their early twenties who are about the same age as Qin Muzhang, even those middle-aged men who are about the same age as Qin Songtao are also very happy, which makes Qin Hongshan very happy. Puzzling.

Qin Hongshan walked over and looked at the wooden lump that was making noise. If you look carefully, it is a machine made entirely of wood. Behind it is a bucket. The bucket should be filled with half of the rice now. Someone is holding a sack. A scoop scoops up the threshed rice and puts it in a sack.

There is a cover in the front, but one side of the cover is open, and there is a rotating thing inside that can beat the ears of rice that people put in, and knock down the rice on top.

Qin Hongshan looked at it for a while, and found that this machine that can thresh rice requires a person to step on something like a pedal in front, and then when the thing inside rolls, it can knock down the rice.

Qin Hongshan had never seen such a thing before, but seeing how playful it was, and how conveniently it knocked down the rice, he knew it was a good thing.

You must know that people nowadays threshing rice basically cuts the rice together with the rice stalks and bundles them into large bundles and picks them home. The tool is the rice bucket.

It is a big bucket, which can either be made big enough to block the grains thrown out during threshing, or a mat made of bamboo to cover the surroundings to prevent the grains from being thrown out.

Every time the rice is threshed, it is very hard. After all, it takes a lot of energy to beat the rice stalks one by one.

But now the thing in Qin Muzhang's house doesn't seem to require much effort, except for stepping on the pedal, it basically doesn't take much effort.

According to Qin Hongshan's observation, it doesn't take too much effort to step on the pedal after the machine is running. It should be said that this thing is really labor-saving.

Qin Hongshan doesn't think too much now, he thinks the appearance of this machine will change this era, he just has the same mentality as the few men who are "playing" with the pedal thresher, and thinks this thing is very fun .

"Brother Muzhang, what are you guys?" Qin Hongshan ran over and asked Qin Muzhang while standing on the ridge of the field watching other people threshing rice.

Qin Muzhang was not very enthusiastic about the pedal thresher. After teaching others how to use it, he took a sickle to the front to cut rice.

Hearing Qin Hongshan's words now, he just replied, "This is a machine for threshing rice."

This pedal thresher was made by Qin Muzhang after a few days of research. It is not made of iron at all, and the wood is fixed with a mortise and tenon structure.

Whether it is the gear, the rotating wheel in the middle, or the part used to thresh rice, all of them are made of wood. This is a completely wooden pedal thresher.

Because Qin Muzhang knew that iron in ancient times was relatively rare, although Xiong Lie opened a blacksmith shop, but every thing that was typed was weaved, and he would not be able to open a blacksmith shop if Xiong Lie had nothing to do with it.

And Qin Muzhang also knows that if the pedal thresher is produced, it must be promoted. If every household wants to do it, it must require a lot of iron.

Although this all-wood pedal thresher does not have iron gears and chains, its running speed is still very good after Qin Muzhang's transformation, and it can fully support the threshing work.

Qin Muzhang made two such pedal threshers, just to make it easier for his family to harvest rice, otherwise it would be even more tiring to thresh with rice buckets later.

Qin Hongshan didn't care too much after hearing Qin Muzhang's words, but rolled up his trousers and prepared to play with everyone, no, it was to help Qin Muzhang's family thresh the rice.
