Chapter 186 Super Harvest

Bang bang bang...

Beside the vegetable garden, Yun Buliu was waving a handful of rice stalks in his hand, throwing the grains at the end into the big wooden barrel, and hitting the wall of the barrel, causing the grains to fly randomly.

However, the flying grains were blocked by the drying mat that was spread out in the barrel.

This is the original way of harvesting millet.

Before the advent of simple rice harvesters, this was the method used by villagers.

In fact, Yun Buliu felt that as long as he studied more, he could make a rice harvester. Although he couldn't make a steel ball roller, it was possible without this thing.

At most, the parts will wear out a lot during use.

But Yun Buliu felt that there was no need to be so troublesome. If something could be solved with strength, let's solve it with strength! There wasn't much Jigu anyway, so it wouldn't take half a day to harvest it.

After harvesting, use a bamboo sieve to remove the leaves and leave the grains.

The next step is to remove the debris from the grains. If conditions permit, you can use a wooden windmill to blow away some shriveled chaff and broken leaves.

But making the windmill was a bit troublesome, so Yun Buliu had to use the most primitive natural wind.

The operation steps are simpler. Pick up the grain, lift it high, and slowly release it. As the breeze blows, the broken leaves and shriveled chaff in the grain will be separated.

Wind is the most common thing by this lake. Even if there is no natural wind, Yun Buliu can still blow the wind. Originally, this does not require much wind, he can do it with just a movement of his mind.

After harvesting the grains, continue harvesting the soybeans. If this is done in rural areas, the busy farming season will be mostly over. You only need to dry the millet and store it in the warehouse.

Of course, some people also grow sweet potatoes... It's a pity that Yun Buliu didn't find sweet potatoes.

I don’t know if there are crops like sweet potatoes or potatoes in this world.

Speaking of which, he really liked both of them.

Although there are no seasonings now, you can boil the potatoes, peel them, and then add some wild vegetables to make rice soup. This is also a delicacy for him.

And sweet potatoes, roasted sweet potatoes are his favorite, the smell... just thinking about it makes me drool.

Touching these soybean-sized grains, Yun Buliu's face showed a smile that only an old farmer would have. Although it is the harvest season, only oneself knows the bitterness in it.

There are no friends to communicate with, and no games and novels to entertain you. When you go out, you will be in a forest, and the only animals around you will be plants...

On such a day, Yun Buliu could only laugh out "hehe" twice, get up and put the millet back into the barrel, then carry the barrel back to the small bamboo house, spread out the sun mat on the terrace, and then pour the millet

On top, spread it out with a wooden rake and put it in the sun to dry.

If a bird flew over, Yun Buliu would give it a piece of millet without hesitation.

Of course, the grain didn't go into the bird's belly, but directly knocked it out of the air. Then when it was time, it would be peeled and dirty, and the roasted bird would be eaten.

Yun Buliu had done this kind of cruel thing countless times during the period when Ji Gu was getting mature. But there were always stupid birds coming here just for a bite to eat.

It wasn't until Yun Buliu had no choice but to erect a wooden pole in the vegetable garden, catch the flying birds that came to steal food, tie their feet, and hang them on it to offer sacrifices to the sky. Only then did they scare those stupid birds.

Originally, Yun Buliu wanted to catch an Ecun Silly Yong and use it. After all, Ecun Silly Yong was big enough and with its big wings flapped, no flying bird dared to come.

But the trouble is, those stupid people in Goose Village are always goose-goose, which is really annoying.

In the end, I simply caught the little birds that wanted to steal food.

Originally, Yun Buliu would not be stingy in giving some mercy to those weak beings, but when these weak beings were stealing his food, it would be difficult for him to show mercy again.

Seeing that there was no room for drying on one drying pad, he put the rest on another drying pad.

Fortunately, the terrace is large enough to accommodate two sun pads. However, after placing the sun pads, there is no way to place lounge chairs on it. However, it only lasts for two or three days, so the impact is not big.

After finishing the Jigu, Yun Buliu went to harvest soybeans. Harvesting soybeans is simple. Just cut down the soybeans and throw them on the stalks. Then remove the bean leaves from the bean plants and hang them one by one on the small bamboo building.

Under the corridor next to it, wait for two days to dry, collect the millet, and then put it on the drying mat to dry.

In this way, even if the pods are cracked and the beans fall out, they will only fall on the drying mat.

Looking at the bean the size of a small egg, although it was not the first time he had seen it, he still found it incredible. He always felt that the beans he cultivated with wood energy looked a bit like genetically modified beans cultivated by super genetic engineering.

.

I don’t know if this bean can be used as seed?

If it can be used as a seed, will it continue to grow if we continue to cultivate it with wood energy?

Think about it, in the future, every bean will be as big as a fist. This... Yun Buliu felt that eating beans would be enough to survive.

I just don’t know if the beans will be cooked properly if I eat them again.

At this size, it is already a bit difficult to fry.

But if that were the case, it would be quite funny to think about it... The Pacman would have to be cut into pieces to eat, you can't believe it!

Three days later, Yun Buliu collected the dried millet and put it into storage.

What preserves the millet is actually the big wooden barrel dug out with giant wooden piles.

Yun Buliu estimated that the harvest from these more than a thousand millet seedlings should be about 500 catties, which is equivalent to a harvest of about half a catty from each plant.

This harvest, if you think about it, you will find that it is really scary!

What a great harvest!

Yun Buliu himself found it a bit incredible, because this harvest was nearly ten times what the primitive brothers of the Tianyan tribe had grown.

Those primitive brothers didn't understand plants and didn't take care of them after planting them. The amount of harvest depends on God's will. Naturally, the harvest will not be too much. This is understandable.

However, even if you take care of these crops in the fields every day, it is estimated that the final harvest will be doubled at most, and now it has directly doubled ten times!

Yun Buliu felt that he had done the right thing when he experimented with these crops. Not only were the grains bigger, there were more grains, and there were fewer shriveled grains.

As for their taste and whether they can be used as seeds, this needs further verification.

You can try the taste right away. We won’t know about the seeds until next spring.

If it cannot be used as a seed, although this possibility is very small, it cannot be ruled out. If that is the case, then the seeds that were saved before cannot be wasted.

He took a small wooden bucket, filled a bucket of rice grains, went to the cave where the rice hulls were placed, poured the grains into the hole in the rice huller ring above the rice rice rice rice rice hulls, and then turned the rice rice hullers ring.

swish swish...

A slightly astringent feeling, accompanied by these sounds, emitted from the rice huller.
