Chapter 126: Pratimok


   The rapeseed that is harvested and transported back is not ‘stacked’, and is directly spread out on the barley field for drying.
   The weather has been good these days, and the sun is shining on the ground, which is most suitable for harvesting and drying grain.
  God give it to the face, Han Cheng is naturally going to take it, don't take advantage of this rare opportunity to dry the rapeseed, and wait for God to be upset, and it will be a big trouble when it rains.
   After all, this is not a later generation. When the grain is received in the wheat farm, it can be covered with a plastic sheet and wait for the weather to clear.
   Can't do it now, let alone the plastic sheet, there is no straw...
   Once it rains, Han Cheng really can't think of any other way except rushing to transport some to the deer pen where Uncle Deer lives.
On the barley field, a thick layer of has been spread out, and under the sunlight in the late spring and early summer, water is quickly evaporating.
   Han Cheng, who hasn't grown up yet, holds a wooden fork in his hand to turn the rapeseed into the sun. While turning it, he also loosens the rapeseed as much as possible to facilitate ventilation and accelerate the evaporation of water.
Han Cheng's right hand is in the front and the left hand is behind, inserting some rapeseed with a wooden fork, and then lift it up slightly with his right hand near the rape, and press down on the left hand at the back at the same time. The lever can be lifted on the earth. In principle, these rapeseeds are naturally forkped easily.
   Then, on the basis of this posture, tilt the top of the wooden fork slightly, and shake it for a few times. The on the wooden fork will fall down one after another, change to a comfortable posture, and then enjoy sunbathing.
   This kind of thing is not difficult for Han Cheng, who has been accustomed to farming since childhood. Even though he is now a man for two generations, it is still the same smoothly when he starts with a wooden fork.
   Only the wood and others who came into contact with these things were uncomfortable. How the weird-looking wooden sticks are not easy to use, it is not as fast as they can directly use them.
   But the gods didn't allow them to do that. They had to use this weird stick to do these tasks.
Look at not far away using the strange stick called the "wood fork" by the child, and the child skillfully doing the demonstration. While they secretly marveled at the wood, they had to learn the way of the child as much as possible to do this. Things that have been touched.
   Han Cheng turned around for a while, then looked back at the people who were clumsily using a wooden fork and struggling to turn over the rapeseed wood. He couldn't help but sniffed. He didn't say, ‘Crop farming, don’t need to learn. (Zhuo twice)’Why do these guys learn so slowly?
   This makes Han Cheng want to teach them earlier, throwing the wooden fork aside, and finding a quiet place in the shade Han Cheng is very helpless.
   Alas, I am a tiring life, and it is not easy to be a son of God and put on a coat of God.
   He sighed with some peace of mind, wiped the sweat from his forehead, dragged a wooden fork in one hand, and walked up to a few people in Mumu to teach.
   This wooden fork was specially made by Han to welcome the first batch of grain harvested by the Qingque tribe.
The structure of the    wooden fork is very simple. It is a wooden stick about four centimeters in diameter and 1.5 meters in length. The top of the stick is three diverging sticks with the thickness of the thumb head and about forty centimeters long.
   There is a distance of about 20 cm between the three sticks.
These three are called "fork teeth" (I don’t know if it’s the word). The sticks and the wooden handles are not straight. The three of them have a certain curvature and are curved downwards, with a depth of about ten centimeters. After the arc, it then extended to the front.
   And on the upper part of the place where the three ‘forks’ meet, there is a small wooden stick protruding upwards, about two to three centimeters long.
   This is to make it easier for the wooden fork to shovel enough rapeseed, and also to prevent the rapeseed from slipping off.
When Han Cheng was a child in later generations, every year when the wheat season was approaching, there would be many people selling wooden forks on the street, as well as long-handled brooms, iron sickles, rakes, straw hats, whetstones, etc. These things related to busy farming.
   The market at that time was probably the busiest time except for the period before the New Year.
   After all, every household has to go to the streets to go to the market, and buy something more or less.
   Otherwise, it won’t be easy to wait for Maizi to open the sickle and find some time to go to the market.
   Later generations of wooden forks are mostly made of mulberry. People who specialize in wooden forks usually have mulberry gardens. Of course, they are different from those that raise silkworms.
   There are basically no big mulberry trees in the mulberry garden where the wooden fork is produced, but small mulberry trees.
   The mulberry tree is cut off at the root in the first year, and a lot of buds will emerge in the spring of the next year.
   After the shoots are normal, one or two will be selected from one plant to grow straight and strong, and the rest will be cut off from the root.
   When these leftovers grow to a height of one or two meters, the head of the mulberry tree will be cut off from a place five or six meters above the ground.
After the head is cut off, after a period of time, a new branch will be squeezed from here. Of course, the branch is not one~EbookFREE.me~ When this new branch grows up, it will break off the rest, leaving only the rest. The next three are similar in distance.
After a long period of time, I began to transform the three wood strips that were about to become "forks", pinched them out of the required arc, and fixed them. After a long period of time, they would maintain this position. Will change back again.
   In this process, a small wooden strip with a suitable position will be selected and left, which is the small wooden peg at the intersection of the three ‘fork tines’ on the top of the wooden fork.
   When the mulberry forks are almost grown, they will be chopped down.
While they are still not dry, burn them in the fire with their skins, and take advantage of this opportunity to rest the imperfections before. After the mulberry cools down, the shape previously made is completely fixed. There will be changes.
   Then peel off the bark, use an axe or a plane to rest, and a wooden fork will come out.
   Han Cheng hasn't been here for a long time, and he didn't think about doing wooden forks before, and didn't think of this until the blossoms fell.
   It is obviously impossible to make a wooden fork like that of later generations.
   But fortunately, there were many trees in the primitive era. After working hard to find them, he found something worthy of use.
   After cutting down hard with a stone axe, he took it to the outside of the tribal wall, raised a fire, and shouted for help who was making a wooden ladder by burning his eyes on the wooden pillars.
After    burned with fire, he began to transform the stick in the direction of the wooden fork.
   Although the final wooden fork was not very good in appearance, it was slightly better than the defective products of later generations, but it was still usable.
