Playful peasant girl made a fortune: uncle begged to take it away

Chapter 107 The Threshing Machine

After the tofu was put into the pot, Mingyu turned the signal flare away, and a puff of green smoke flew straight into the sky, and then scattered like fireworks.

When the dried tofu was fished out, old man Murong and Cang Jiye just came back.

"Girl, this food tastes good. Make more next time. You can save it as a side dish, or as a snack." Murong old man said vaguely while chewing dried tofu.Cang Jiye also nodded repeatedly.

Mingyu didn't bother to talk to the two of them, so she turned to Mingqian and asked
"Uncle Wu, have you memorized all these steps?"

"Remember, it's just that I don't know how much to put these things in."

"According to the amount I put in just now, it's about the same every time, and you will get used to it after doing it a few times."

Ming Qian nodded.After that, Mingyu filled two bowls of dried tofu and asked Mingqian to take it back.Mingyu thought that there were still many things to do, so she also became busy.

Mingyu thought that the Hongyun Tower would probably come to the pepper field in the next few days, and the pepper seeds in her hand were basically dried, and it seemed that it was time to raise seedlings.

Mingyu asked her father to dig out the ground in the yard, the finer the better, and she also sprinkled fertilizer on it.

Mingyu picked the pepper seeds first, then boiled some warm water, poured the water into a wooden basin, and then soaked the seeds in the water.

On the second day, Mingyu sprinkled the soaked seeds evenly on the ground, and sprinkled a thin layer of fine soil on top of the seeds.After finishing the matter of raising pepper seedlings, Mingyu asked her father to bring the things that were made to order at the blacksmith shop to the bamboo building last time.

"Daddy, let's get this threshing machine out first, otherwise it will be useless by then."

"This is the board that my father asked to plan more when we built the house last time. It has been made into this shape according to your request. What's next?" Ming Yong asked, looking at the strangely shaped box in front of him.

"Put this movement on the card slot on this side and this side, and then put this cover on."

Mingyong installed the things according to what Mingyu said, and looked at Mingyu after they were installed. Mingyu stepped forward to push the movement to run with his hands, and then stepped on the installed pedals, as if pumping air. Stepping up and down, the movement of the machine kept running, and the card slot on the side did not feel loose. It took about 5 minutes for Mingyu to stop.

"Daddy, it's better to install rings or ropes at the four corners of this machine, so that it can be easily dragged, and there are also two wooden boards on both sides of the lower part, so that it will be easier to pull." Mingyu stopped After that, he walked around the fuselage and said
"Okay, but what is this used for?" Ming Yong looked at the strange thing in front of him and asked

"Hehe, it's called a threshing machine, which separates the grains from the ears of rice." Mingyu replied with a happy smile.

"Is this really useful? Generally, it's not rubbed off with feet or hands after drying, and it doesn't feel like hands and feet can be rubbed together."

"Hey, Dad, don't ask so many questions, you will know when the time comes."

How painful it is to rub hands and feet!Just wait, I will let all farmers use this machine in the future.

After harvesting the millet this time, Mingyu does not plan to use the millet to pay taxes. Anyway, the family is not short of money now, so it is good to use the money to offset the tax. Mingyu intends to keep these millet as seeds, because after this cultivation, The millet harvested by oneself is much better than that grown by ordinary people, and the seeds are naturally selected for selection, just like prenatal and postnatal care.
