MTL - Being Scolded As a Loser? All the Big Guys In Beijing Are Rushing To Pamper Me-Chapter 70 Oil is made
Chapter 70 The oil is prepared
The daughter's apathy has been cured, but she has developed a habit of being greedy. Li Xiuniang is both amused and distressed at the same time.
Pinched the tip of Sister Nian's nose, and said with a smile: "You want to eat five meals, right?"
Shen Nian admitted, "Yeah."
“Hmm, are you hungry at home or something.” After saying this in a dumbfounded voice, Li Xiuniang said out of pure curiosity: “Don’t all little girls love to be pretty? You’re not afraid of growing up to be a fat man.”
“I’m not afraid.” Shen Nian is very good at seeking benefits for his mouth, and he pretends to be aggrieved: “I run around all day long, and I have to learn to read. My body and brain are moving, so I can’t gain weight even if I want to.”
Shen Er is a brainless doting girl. Hearing her pitiful voice, he immediately said: "Sister Nian, if she wants to eat, cook it for her."
“Okay.” Li Xiuniang nodded.
I plan to always have some storage at home so that my daughter can eat whenever she wants.
Shen Nian smiled brightly and said, "Thank you, Mom and Dad."
It's not that she's exaggerating, it's just that people with superpowers have big appetites.
Li Xiuniang went to cook, and Shen Er excitedly asked about making tung oil.
“Sister Nian, when can I make the tung oil you mentioned?”
“I’m going to take a look at the tung oil fruit.” Shen Nian said and walked towards the utility room.
See the yellow-green hard fruits turn black, lose their moisture and become shriveled.
I stretched out my hand and touched it, and felt it was ok.
“That’s it.”
Shen Er: “What should we do?”
"The space here is too small. Take these fruits to the yard and beat out the seeds."
Upon hearing this, Shen Eryi picked up the tung oil on the ground into bamboo baskets and carried them basket by basket to the yard.
At this time, Shen Nian took out a strange tool.
That tool is called a lid.
A stick attached to a movable, elongated, flat bamboo board.
“Dad, please move out of the way, I’m going to shoot.”
Shen Nian waved the tool and slapped it again and again.
This work requires strength and skill, which means that you have to be strong in the last days, otherwise the little girl would not be able to swing.
Shen Er saw Shen Nian patting her twice and knew what to do. He went up and took the Lian Gai from her hand.
“This kind of heavy work comes, and you sit down while you do it.”
After getting used to it for a few times, a regular buzzing sound sounded in the yard.
The man who was used to doing farm work didn't seem to know he was tired. He kept beating until it got hot. He took off his outer cotton clothes and continued to beat with only a coat.
The muscles in the arms bulge, bursting with strength.
I do not know how long it has been.
Shen Nian came over and inspected the fruit. The kernel was exposed and 80% of the inner shell was preserved, which was just right.
"alright."
Shen Er wiped his sweat and asked, "What's next?"
As long as he thinks of the usefulness of tung oil, he doesn't feel tired, but full of energy.
“Next, I will use the large millstone I ordered at the carpenter’s shop.” Shen Nian said.
The father and daughter used a large millstone to make tung rice. They heated the tung seeds for two quarters of an hour and took them out to make tung oil cakes.
The making of tung oil cakes is also very particular. First, while it is hot, put the tung rice on the straw wrapped with an iron ring and tie it into a cake. Step on the porcelain cake with bare feet. Do not wear shoes, otherwise it will loosen.
This is what Shen Nian learned from the inheritor of the ancient method of making tung oil.
“Is this good?” Shen Er asked.
"No, but it's almost completed." Shen Nian said, carrying the oil cake to the room where the oil press was placed.
It is said to be a house, but in fact it is a casually built thatched shed.
Shen Nian and Shen Er put the oil cakes into the press box and pushed the heavy wooden pile to hit the oil press.
咚!
咚咚!
“Keep knocking, and soon the oil will drip into the basin at the bottom.” Shen Nian put a basin into the oil outlet. Shen Er was dizzy due to the series of steps. Hearing these words, he knew he would be fine soon and felt energetic again.
"I'll take care of the rest. It doesn't smell good inside. Get out quickly."
Shen Nian had a sensitive sense of smell and really couldn't bear it, so he responded and went out.
Before eating, oil leaked from the oil outlet.
When Shen Er saw the oil, he shouted outside calmly, "Sister Nian, it's out, it's out, it's out."
Golden oil makes people feel good just looking at it.
Shen Nian came in and saw that the tung oil that came out was very clear, and nodded with satisfaction.
“Well, it worked.” The tone was very calm.
Shen Er: "..." No, why are you so calm? This is oil, oil!
Although it is not oil for eating.
Shen Er felt helpless as he was overly excited about holding Jinshan.
At this moment, Shen Kun ran over and called, "Dad, sister, dinner is ready."
The family hurriedly packed up and went to the main room.
After dinner, Li Xiuniang and others heard Shen Er mysteriously say that the tung oil was ready.
A few people were still leisurely and ran towards the temporary factory building at the same time.
“This is tung oil. The color is so beautiful. Is it really inedible?” It was Li Xiuniang who said this.
"No." Shen Nian said, "However, tung oil can be used to light lamps. From now on, mother will not be reluctant to light lamps at night."
She mentioned the use of lighting lamps for the first time, and Li Xiuniang once again realized how precious this thing was.
“Can you still light the lamp? Why don’t you give it a try?”
Shen Er: "Then try."
The family tried it and found that it could be used as lamp oil.
Li Xiuniang was very happy, "In the future, my family will no longer have to buy lamp oil, which will save another expense."
Shen Nian and others: “…” This focus is great.
Shen Er: "Sister Nian, you said before that you would cooperate with Mr. Xiao on this tung oil. How do you plan to cooperate?"
Shen Nian has already thought about this problem.
The Shen family has not been divided, so it is definitely not possible to run a workshop in their own name, unless they do not want to separate.
Of course, it is impossible not to separate the families.
Since we can't handle it ourselves, Mr. Xiao will be very useful at this time.
This man looked powerful. Let him take the lead, run the business by himself, and make the village rich. This was Shen Nian's idea.
Hearing her method, Shen Er and others all agreed.
"Right now, the village is building roads. When the roads are completed, we will start building workshops. It is best to build them before winter." Shen Er said, "It happens that there is nothing much in winter, and everyone in the village is staying at home. It will be useful then. .”
Shen Nian just wants to provide the formula and doesn't want to take care of things. "These things are hard work for dad. Of course, dad can bring the eldest brother and the second brother."
Shen Er felt funny in his heart and said deliberately: "What about you and Brother Man?"
Man Geer is studying to prepare for going to school next spring. Of course she is... a salty fish.
The abacus in Shen Nian's heart was rattling, but it didn't show on his face.
With a serious look on his face, he said, "Brother Man needs to be literate. I'll go talk to Xiao Jinzhi about cooperation."
There is nothing wrong with this, because everyone in the family is frightened when talking to Xiao Jinzhi.
Especially Shen Qian and Shen Kun, they couldn't avoid this noble young master.
This is a side effect of living in the same house.
Shen Kun felt that his sister was so courageous and sighed: "My sister has the most difficult task."
ha?
Shen Nian was a little confused. Is this difficult?
I'm afraid you have some misunderstanding about hardship. Xiao Jinzhi is very easy to talk to.
The Shen family was enjoying themselves happily, but something happened in the village.
