Luo Shixing felt that his brain was probably muddled by something, and he was thinking about how to extract oil from animals every day, but he forgot about vegetable oil!

Of course, the main reason is that there were not too many soybeans in the food they ate before. Although rice can also extract rice oil, who would want to use rice to extract oil when there is not enough food.

Cheng Jingwei was a little dazed when he was dragged by him: "Huh? What kind of oil?"

Luo Shixing ignored him again, and turned around and shouted, "A Tong, help me carry a bag of soybeans to the kitchen!"

After hearing this, Wang Antong tilted his head to react, and immediately went over to carry a bag of soybeans to the kitchen of the villa with the help of the slave.

Cheng Jingwei asked before he could react, "Want to eat tofu?"

Luo Shixing waved his hand: "No, no, I'm going to make new things, you can play by yourself, don't bother me."

After Luo Shixing finished speaking, he ran away like a gust of wind. Cheng Jingwei stayed where he was and turned his head to look at his cheerful back, smiled helplessly, and then said to the Xue family brothers: "After putting everything in, bring someone with me. Go to the field."

Because of building a house, most of the land of their family has not been tidied up. Now the canals and ponds occupy part of it, and the remaining part is naturally used for farming.

It's just that there are a lot of trees and shrubs in those places. Before, even Cheng Jingwei would worry about what to do with such a large area of ​​land, but now that he has people, he can let go of his hands and feet.

First of all, the trees were cut down, and these woods or bamboos were used as fences to enclose their territory and prevent others from entering. Anyway, there is a title deed, and no one can say anything.

Then clean up all the bushes inside, and wait until the rainy season is coming next year to plant the land.

The only inconvenient thing here is that you can't judge when you can plant the land according to the solar terms. The Ouluo tribe's knowledge in this area has been lost, and other tribes will not tell you this kind of thing, even if it is difficult to learn it secretly.

What's more, in this state surrounded by mountains, there is very little communication between tribes, and it is impossible to go to other people's place to squat in other people's planting time and method. I am afraid that they will be discovered and killed on the same day.

This is not an exaggeration. If people here think that you are not a local and have good intentions, they can really beat you to death. What's the reason? They don't make any sense at all.

Fortunately, Cheng Jingwei asked Luo Shixing before, and knew that the little lynx knew something about this.

Cheng Jingwei took people to tidy up the yard, while Luo Shixing took Wang Antong and Xiao Shanshu to pick soybeans.

Originally, he thought that neither Wang Antong nor Xiao Shanshu had temperaments that could sit still. One hadn't fully learned it yet, and the other was still young, so he probably would get impatient after a while.

It turned out that these two children had been picking with him all the time.

Luo Shixing first threw the soybeans into the water to pick out all the dead and shriveled beans, and then smashed the selected soybeans with a stone mortar, and soaked them in the water after smashing.

When Cheng Jingwei and the others came back, they saw the little lynx smashing soybeans with a mortar.

He hurried over to take the mortar from Luo Shixing and said, "What are you doing?"

Luo Shixing was also exhausted. After giving him the mortar, he bent down to look at the condition of the soybeans inside and said, "It's still a little big, just keep smashing it a few more times."

Cheng Jingwei smashed soybeans inexplicably and said, "If you want tofu, I'll get you a stone mill. It takes a lot of effort."

Luo Shixing felt a little tired and simply squatted to one side, Wang Antong also followed his example and squatted on Luo Shixing's left side, Xiao Shanshu looked at it and also squatted on Luo Shixing's right side.

Cheng Jingwei almost burst out laughing when he saw the three squatting in a row in order of size.

Luo Shixing looked up at him and said, "It's not making tofu, it's extracting oil."

"Huh?" Cheng Jingwei slowed down his hands for a moment and asked, "Extract oil? Soybeans?"

Luo Shixing nodded and said, "That's right, I didn't expect it? This thing can extract oil, but the oil yield is not very high, but it is better than animal oil."

At least now that their farming industry is not very developed, it is much stronger.

Cheng Jingwei looked at the smashed soybeans, but couldn't imagine how this thing squeezed oil.

After he smashed the soybeans almost, Luo Shixing soaked them in water and tried to recall, "The next step seems to be drying."

Cheng Jingwei was speechless after hearing this: "Why soak if you want to dry it?"

Luo Shixing said, "This is to puff the soybeans and destroy the internal structure of the soybeans so that the oil can flow out more easily."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Cheng Jingwei who was bewildered, then looked at Xiao Shanshu who was also bewildered next to him, and asked Wang Antong, "Do you understand everything?"

Wang Antong said very confidently: "No!"

Well, very good, the child has learned more words, and it feels better to have a corresponding language environment.

Luo Shixing looked at Cheng Jingwei again, and Cheng Jingwei said calmly, "What do you mean?"

Luo Shixing laughed and said, "It's fine if you don't understand it. It's okay. I'll tell you a little bit from the beginning later. Now you can see how to do it."

Cheng Jingwei took a look at the soaking soybeans and thought for a while, "If we can extract oil, should we plant some soybeans?"

Luo Shixing nodded vigorously: "Of course we have to grow it, and we need to grow a little more. Soybeans are very good."

Soybeans are rich in protein. The protein the human body needs for a day can only be obtained from meat, egg, milk and soy products. He also forgot how much meat, egg, and milk is needed for a sufficient amount of protein, but it may not be very good There are so many supplies in the ground, and eating too much meat will also burden the stomach, so it is better to match some corresponding soy products.

Cheng Jingwei said: "I just cleaned up the field outside, let's go and see what to plant?"

Luo Shixing was naturally very interested in this, so he immediately got up and said, "Let's go."

Cheng Jingwei immediately asked Wang Antong to get a clay tablet, and Wang Antong quickly went to get a prepared clay tablet. After taking it, Cheng Jingwei drew a schematic diagram on it with a bamboo stick, and drew two squares in the middle to serve as their house and the adjacent one. The bamboo house, and then the circular pond and canal are also drawn.

Luo Shixing knew at a glance that he was painting their land, and after taking a look, he couldn't help but smile: "Do we have so many lands?"

To be honest, when he first built a house, he decisively launched a plan to build as big as he could after he found someone who could help.

If he didn't want to live in before the Spring Festival, he might have built a bigger one.

However, both their villas and bamboo houses occupy only a small part of the area, adding up to more than 1000 square meters, and they own ten acres of land, which is about 6000 square meters in conversion. Counting ponds and canals, they also used it. One-sixth of the entire site.

More than half of the rest are still waiting for them to clean up.

Luo Shixing said worriedly, "We can't grow such a large area of ​​land."

There are only so many of them now, and they have really opened up so many wastelands, and they may be exhausted to death by then.

Cheng Jingwei said: "Not all of them can be used for farming, and some of them need to be used for residential buildings."

Luo Shixing was a little strange: "Recover it? Do you want those slaves to cover it? It won't take much."

When he was talking, he was very relieved, and felt that Cheng Jingwei seemed to have changed a lot. If those people offended him before, it would be strange if he didn't make him die or become disabled.

Now he can still think of those people's poor living conditions and improve their lives.

Although Luo Shixing didn't want to help them improve their lives at all, and planned to take this as one of the punishments, let's talk about when these people reformed, but since Cheng Jingwei had changed, he naturally wouldn't object.

However, Cheng Jingwei sneered: "Who cares about them, I mean we can find people to help us plant the land in the future, and those houses are all for them to live in."

After hearing this, Luo Shixing paused for a while before saying oh, and he wasn't very disappointed, but he was a little entangled: "But we don't have any extra houses to hire them to help us cultivate the land."

Cheng Jingwei was a little puzzled: "Why do you give them something? Can't you just take care of the food?"

Luo Shixing couldn't help but leaned back slightly and asked, "It's just why the manager came to plant the land for you. Isn't it good to plant the land yourself?"

Cheng Jing raised his chin slightly and asked, "Do you think they know how to farm?"

Luo Shixing immediately said: "Since this is the case, they will not come."

Cheng Jingwei put down the clay tablet and said with a smile: "They will come, you forgot that there are still a group of people who want to be your subordinate priests."

According to the previous legend of the Ouluo tribe, the high priest had at least thirty priests under him, and three of the leading priests each led ten people to help the high priest handle various affairs.

Luo Shixing was shocked: "He came here to be the priest of Vulcan, so you take him to farm?"

Cheng Jingwei corrected and said: "The most important thing for them is to assist you. Isn't that kind of land a matter of course? What's more, Ale really wants to restore them to the glory of their ancestors, and really wants to mobilize everyone to farm, but they haven't done it for a long time. After this kind of thing, taking them to farm is equivalent to teaching them the method, what's wrong?"

Luo Shixing was going to be convinced by Cheng Jingwei's logic, but for some reason, he always felt something was wrong.

He said decisively: "No, I want to ask Alzhen."

Of course, he didn't really go to Alezhen, but asked Xue Yuanqin to go to the county government office to bring a message, while he continued to work on soybeans.

The puffing of soybeans needs to reach a certain level, too much or too little will not work. Now there is no machine that can test it, so Luo Shixing directly uses the most stupid method-dental test.

Bite the soybeans with the back teeth, you can bite flat, and there is a slight noise, and you can see cracks on the surface after you take it out, that's about the same.

If it doesn't crack, it's too wet, if it's loud, it's too dry.

In order to adjust the moisture content of the soybeans, Luo Shixing delayed for several days, and when it was finally suitable, he put the soybeans in the oven to dry.

This oven was specially built for him by Cheng Jingwei. The bottom is a stove and the top is a baking oven. Originally, the oven was only made into an arch. Later, Cheng Jingwei took a look at it when it was drying, and added an oven to the arch. There are two cat ears, and the door of the stove is made of bamboo, which is made into the shape of a cat's nose and hair mouth.

In order to be realistic, Cheng Jingwei even made two round and big eyes on the oven.

This caused Luo Shixing to feel like he was feeding the cat every time he put something in the oven.
