Chapter 42 Making Candles

"It's okay, I have all the materials used in the drawings."

After An Li finished speaking, she clicked on the drawing interface:

Primary stone mill.It takes 10 stone and 10 wood to build. Ps. After preparing the required materials, click Build and pay 5 gold coins to complete the construction.

Junior cabin.Construction requires 100 planks, 50 stone, and 50 hard soil. Ps. After preparing the required materials, click Build and pay 50 gold coins to complete. (48 hours for cabin construction.)
Primary barn.Construction requires 10 planks, 20 wood, 10 stones, and some straw. Ps. Click Build to pay 20 gold coins to complete the build.

board.To make a plank, you need 1 piece of wood, and you need to pay 2 gold coins for a plank.

stone.1 stone is needed to make a stone, and 2 gold coins are required for a stone.

………………

"If you don't read it, you don't know. With the four drawings I just bought, I already have 9 drawings."

An Li took a look at the materials needed for the primary hut. 100 pieces of wood are 200 gold coins, 50 pieces of stone are 100 gold coins, plus 50 needed for construction, a total of 350 gold coins.I still have 420 gold coins now, and the wandering merchants went shopping, and fell into the poor again.If it hadn't been for the sale of wheat, it is estimated that they would have to eat dirt again.

An Li first made 4 pieces of wood needed for 20 wallpapers, and then made 10 pieces of stone, which can make 10 pairs of small stone bricks.

While waiting for the time to make it, An Li went to the forest to find the abandoned beehives, and really wanted to try to see if making candles would be successful, haha.

………………

"Hey, 22. The hornet's nest is gone!" An Li walked by the hole where the rabbit was caught last time, and found that the iconic beehive could not be found.

An Li approached, and the hornet's nest was lying on the ground in pieces. An Li wondered who had the courage to provoke this terrifying little group of hornets.But no matter who it is, it’s all about picking up the cheap anyway.

An Li picked up the hive to have a look, and a little honey flowed out.An Li hurriedly stuffed it all into the system backpack to keep the hive intact. No food can be wasted, let alone pure natural honey.

The purpose of the trip was achieved, and Anli walked back. On the way, he and 22 Bagua ate up all the honey. The first thought in Anli's mind was bears.Bears like to eat honey, and because they have rough skin and thick flesh, they are not afraid of wasp attacks.

However, it was rejected by 22. It said that it is impossible for bears to appear now, because Anli's level is not enough for aggressive animals to appear.

An Li didn't take it seriously when she heard what 22 said. She went into the kitchen and took a small basin, took out the honeycomb and let the honey flow into the basin.Wait for the remaining honey in a few honeycombs to run out, and fill half of the small pot.

"It's not too much, it's so much, it's really a lot of money, hehehe."

After speaking, Anli put the honeycomb into the pot, poured water to boil the honeycomb, so that the beeswax and impurities can be separated.

However, after the beeswax pot was boiled, it might not be very easy to use. Anli bought a small iron pot from the mall. In the future, the beeswax boiled pot will be used for miscellaneous purposes, and the newly bought one is specially used for cooking.

After everything was done, An Li went out to continue rubbing corn.As soon as she picked up the corn, her fingers began to ache. An Li complained to herself that she is still so "delicate" now, she should have developed an iron body.

After rubbing it for a while, I smelled a fragrant honey smell, which seemed to be separating.After grinding the remaining corn kernels and picking up the corn cobs for the fire, I went into the kitchen to see how the beeswax was cooking.

There is a layer of oil-like substance on the iron pot, which feels greasy and waxy to the touch. It seems to be beeswax.

An Li gently scraped the top layer of beeswax into the bowl, so that the beeswax just filled the bowl was boiled out from the honeycombs.

"Okay, I'll make some small wooden containers to hold the wax in a while."

An Li found a few pieces of wood with a relatively high density, and used a dagger to cut them into small bowls bit by bit. After cutting one,
Put a small section of rope into the oil and soak until it penetrates completely, clamp the rope upright in a small wooden bowl, pour the unsolidified beeswax into the bowl, and pour it at the height where a small piece of rope is left.

Put the finished candle aside and wait for it to completely solidify. Soak some fungus and scallions and fry the fungus.

The scallions and ginger have not been planted in the vegetable garden in the yard. Break off the three pieces of ginger and insert them into the soil one by one. The scallions are also planted directly on the edge of the ground.Both vegetables are particularly easy to live, and they take root when they see the soil.

For the soaked fungus, Anli cut the onion and put it in the pot first. After the onion is fragrant, add the fungus and stir-fry until the fungus is cooked.I made another egg soup, warmed up two steamed buns, and dinner was done.

After dinner, Anli began to tinker with the candles she had just made.

The wick was lit, and it took a while for the candle to slowly begin to melt, and the fire was a little brighter.

Yingying candlelight illuminates a corner of the kitchen, An Li looks at the little candlelight and wonders why she wants to cry.Feeling homesick again...

Blinking her eyes, holding back the tears she wanted to shed, she took the freshly baked candles and walked towards the house.

Lying on the bed after washing, An Li made the wood and stone into wallpaper and small stone bricks.Tomorrow I will raise the rice seedlings first, then I can put up wallpaper and plan how to harden the yard.

………………

Spring January 1, sunny.

Anli carried water pot by pot and watered it. As the land became more and more, watering became a big project.It also takes energy and time to fetch water from left to right.

"Now we can divert the water from the creek. This is too tiring. I am not tired of digging canals and watering them."

The water in the paddy field is almost enough, Anli closes the water gate and feeds the chickens, rabbits and cows.

An Li added some earthworms to the chicken food to increase the nutrition of the pheasants and increase their happiness so that they could lay more eggs, and threw all the feces into the compost pond for fermentation.

After taking care of the outside of the yard, I went into the yard to take care of it.The garlic sprouts sprouted without Anli's attention, and turned into garlic sprouts.

An Li pulled out the garlic from the soil, it was quite big.An Li continued to plant the big garlic cloves as seeds, and kept the small garlic cloves for cooking.

"It's not bad to harvest garlic sprouts and garlic without the garlic shoots. But I don't like to eat garlic sprouts, the taste is particularly bad, and five garlic sprouts are not enough for cooking, so it would be a pity to throw them away."

It's a pity that An Li threw away the garlic sprouts, and comforted herself in her heart to give up and leave!

Raise rice seedlings in the field in the yard, and then go out to open the field and grow garlic.

There are 6 garlic cloves planted in one piece of land, and there are more than 5 garlic cloves in 30 garlic cloves, and six plots are evenly planted.

The wheat field was turned over and continued to plant wheat, and the corn field was about to be harvested, and gold coins were coming in again.

It took only one morning to take care of the land, and An Li felt that she needed an assistant, but she just thought about it.

An Li sighed and took a break after lunch, then continued to grind corn.

Corn is much harder to grind than flour, so Anli made a small brush, and used the brush to sweep the popped particles in while grinding the flour.

Use a sieve to pass through the sieve once, and put the sifted noodles into clay pots. The corn dregs on the top can be used for porridge, or mixed with chicken feed.

27 catties of corn, after drying and threshing, only 25 catties are left, and 17 catties of ground cornmeal are left, and the rest is corn dregs and some losses.

"Manual grinding with such a loss is already very good. Today I can drink porridge made from corn dregs."

An Li bought a bolt of linen and a cotton cloth with 100 gold coins, and sewed a small cloth bag with the cotton cloth to hold corn dregs.

Then I strolled to the wishing well and made a wish.

22 said that the wishing well can make a wish once a day, and An Li felt like she missed a hundred million before.
