Vol 3 Chapter 945: -Wheat Qu

The next morning after separating from the patriarchs, Lihuo met again for a short meeting.
The content of the meeting is nothing else, mainly the coordination of the combat department in the next three months and the direction of tribal development in the next three months.
Now that you have consciously developed into farming, you can't just talk about it, you have to take action.
Ji Zei gave this task to Ah Wei, who was originally in charge of this by the Ministry of Agriculture. Moreover, of the 21 Lihuo departments, only the Ministry of Agriculture has the largest number of people, with more than 500 people, and the hunting department is the next.
"Although the vegetation of the White Bone Wasteland is scarce, it has the most critical condition for plant growth, and that is the river. In this way, Awei, you take the tribe to open up a piece of land by the river, add fertilizer, and after the autumn harvest, all the wheat Plant it, yes, this time, let’s not eat wheat anymore. We will plant all of them. Only in this way, we can harvest more. Everyone should know that we plant wheat not only for our own food, like this crop, sooner or later. Promoted."
Ji Taiyu said with a long heart.
Awei nodded and said, "Don't worry, Lord Patriarch, I will never let you down. I will do it for you."
Ji Thief smiled and said, "Of course I can rest assured when you do things. In the first few days, I will find a place to reclaim wasteland with you. As for others."
With that, the thief looked around, and finally his gaze fell on Usma.
Usma's heart squatted, knowing that there was nothing good.
Immediately, I saw Ji Thief and said: "You temporarily put down the other constructions in the tribe, and first make twenty catapults for the military department. Later, the five members of the military department will be equipped with a catapult for use in battle. As for the number of tribal trebuchets, it's up to Usma to figure it out."
When I heard that it was only a trebuchet, Usma sighed and sighed, thinking it was a big deal. It was just a trebuchet. Although dozens of trebuchets had been used a lot, I was used to it and didn't cause trouble.
"Sister Zhen, what step did the banners of the various combat departments do?"
When the witch heard the words, she said a little impressively: "It's being made, but the pattern on that flag is always bad..."
The thief Ji turned his gaze to Xue, and Xue Xue smiled slightly: "Sister Zhen, I will help you later."
The witch gave a hum, and the thief nodded: "It's so best. Send the banner to all departments as soon as possible. If this happens, it can also inspire everyone's fighting spirit."
"By the way, warrior, there is one more thing to tell you." At this moment, the witch suddenly said as if thinking of something.
Ji Thief turned his head: "What?"
The witch glanced at the heads of several combat departments present, and said: "We now have more clansmen and more places to live. Therefore, the place for everyone to train..."
If the witch doesn’t say this, the thief will really forget:
Starting from the recruitment of all the tribesmen from the various combat departments, all the combat departments except the army, Jihuben need to protect the safety of the tribe, the remaining members of the combat department are all in the valley. Set up barracks outside for training and garrison."
Usma lowered her face and muttered silently in her heart: "You can't see me, you can't see me, you can't see me."
Afraid of what's coming, Ji Zei immediately turned his head to Usma with a smile, and said, "Usma, why don't you put down the production of the trebuchet and take someone outside the tribe to build the barracks? "
Usma: "···"
Before Usma could make any excuses, the thief immediately slapped his hands and laughed: "Haha, Usma, refreshing, that's it. When the meeting is over, you will start preparing for the construction of the barracks."
The people in charge shook their heads and looked at Usma with pitiful eyes.
After talking about a few more things, the thief left the fat elder Awei and Usma, and the rest of the people in charge were doing what they should do.
In front of the three of them, Ji Thief said: "Leaving you three, there are main things to say."
The three of them all looked at the thief, and Usma mumbled: "As long as it's not too hard work."
Ji Thief smiled slightly and turned his eyes to the fat elder first.
"Fat bear, I told you about making fruit wine before, but I have never told you about the method of brewing. Today I will focus on explaining it to you."
In front of Awei and Usma, Ji Pirate did not call Fat Elder again, but directly called the name.
The fat elder also knew what Ji Thief meant, so he nodded without saying anything, but listened carefully.
However, Usma and Awei hesitated for a while, and asked the thief: "Master Patriarch, what is the fruit wine you are talking about? I have been listening to you before."
Ji Thief thought for a while, then said, "Well, wine, a good thing, can activate the blood and strengthen the body, but also increase the personal combat effectiveness appropriately."
Usma hey: "Is there any benefit?"
The thief nodded: "Yes, this thing is still an indispensable drink on weekdays."
With that said, Ji Thief said: "We must make koji before making wine. We have not brewed wine before, so naturally we don't know koji. So, our first task is to make koji."
Speaking hard, Ji Zei said to the fat elder: "Next, you must remember the method I want to say carefully, because this is the key to winemaking."
Seeing Ji Thief's serious expression, the fat elder also took a deep breath, then nodded to Ji Thief and said, "Sir, Lord Patriarch."
"In this way, you first find some wheat. You don't need too much. There can be about one. Well, I think about it. There will be about half a crock. Then, first wash it with clean water and find a well-ventilated place to dry. Dry it and put it on the roof. Then, use a grinder to squeeze the washed wheat. Be careful not to crush it too much. It does not need to be made into flour. Most likely, just take out the wheat kernels and a little flour." Ji Zie said After one pass, he asked the fat elder: "Did you write it down?"
The fat elder nodded: "Remember, patriarch, you continue to speak."
Ji Tie said, "When I made noodles and steamed buns before, didn't I let some dough be used as leaven? Anything else?"
The fat elder nodded: "Yes, it has been kept."
The thief said: "Well, soak the yeast in clean water for a few sundial time. Don't take too long, just two or three."
The fat elder continued to nod his head: "What then?"
"Mix the water that has been soaked in the yeast and the crushed wheat kernels, pay attention, the key point is here."
The fat elder raised his spirit again.
"After the two are mixed, we must ensure that they are not too dry or too wet. The best is that they can be formed into a shape without dripping water, understand?"
The fat elder nodded: "Understand, is there any patriarch?"
The thief nodded: "Also, Usma, you will use some wood to make a square box tomorrow to make a curve mold."
Usma was stunned: "Music? How big is it?"
Ji Zei shook his head: "There is no need to be so big, so big, so tall."
With that said, Ji Thief made a gesture of thirty square centimeters in size and ten centimeters in height.
Usma patted his chest and said, "This is simple."
Ji Zei said: "The mold must be done earlier, at least, before the steps I mentioned earlier are completed. Usma, can it be done?"
Usma said: "It can be done!"
Ji Tie said: "Then, when everything is ready, Fat Xiong, you go to Azhi and ask for some hemp leaves, which are the kind used by Aqi to weave hemp cloth. Then, put the hemp leaves in the curved mold. Just keep in mind, the best place is the big hemp leaf at the bottom. Even if it is small, it can’t be smaller than the mold, you know?"
The fat elder looked serious: "I wrote it down."
"After doing this, put the semi-finished product of the fermented wheat koji on the hemp leaf, and then wrap it tightly. Every time you fill it, it will be firm and not loose at all. Wait for the koji to be filled. When it's full, cover it with hemp leaves, which must be tight, and then tie them tightly with hemp rope, so that there should be no looseness or a hint of leakage."
The fat elder asked, "Is this all right?"
Ji Zei shook his head: "No, after finishing this, I have to expose it to the sun. In about a month, the wine song will be finished. At the moment, I only know the production of wheat song. I don't know about rice song yet, and, We don’t have a plant like rice either."
