Traveling through ancient times, I worked hard to develop a side business

"Brother, we have to wait two days to know whether it is successful or not. We will know after it dries!" Huanyan was unsure. After all, things made of soil are easy to break. I hope it won't crack!

"Okay!" Several people came out with Huanyan excitedly and disappointedly.

"Uncle Jian, have you finished cleaning the millstone?"

"It's washed and almost dried. I've also made the stone basin you asked for!" Uncle Jian said with a smile.

"Thank you, Uncle Arrow. If it succeeds, I'll treat you first!"

"Then I'll be waiting for Yanyan!" Uncle Jian smiled. Now the tribesmen no longer lie in the cave waiting to die, but are actively looking for food. If they find something new that they don't recognize, they will bring it back for Huanyan to take a look.

Huanyan directed Yao to prepare to push the mill, while she herself put the rice in. Fortunately, she had taken the volume of the rice into consideration and made the opening in the middle quite large, otherwise she could only put in one grain at a time, and it would take forever to grind it.

"Huanyan, is there anything I can do?" Qing was sent away by her mother and asked nervously.

"Yes, can you help me weave a basket!" Looking at the expression on Qing's face, Huanyan thought hard and said.

"Okay, now my basket weaving skills are really good!" Qing happily went to work.

"Brother, go with Shun and grind all three baskets of rice. I'll go find something outside!"

"Sister, what are you looking for? I'll go with you!"

"No need, I'll be back soon!" Huanyan said and ran outside. What she wanted to find was bamboo, but she didn't know if the bamboo here would hit people. If it didn't, that would be great, because then she would have a place to find her bamboo mat.

And if she could make bamboo products, it would be easier to preserve a lot of food. The most important thing now is that she needs a sieve.

Huanyan thought so and soon came out of the cave. She didn't know what was in each direction, so she could only search blindly.

Huanyan looked around for a long time but still didn't know which way to go.

Suddenly, Huanyan slapped herself hard. Recently, Uncle Jian had been leading the tribesmen to look for new food everywhere. They must know the situation here better than she did.

Thinking of this, Huanyan turned around and went back, and found Uncle Jian who was sharpening a stone knife.

"Uncle Arrow, I want to ask you something!"

"What's the matter? Tell me!"

"Have you ever seen a tree with sections?"

"Why do you ask this?"

"I need it, so have you ever seen it?"

"I have seen the knotty tree you mentioned, but it is too far from here, and there is a very scary beast living in it. What do you want the knotty tree for?"

"I want to try to make a sieve!" Huanyan said dejectedly.

"Tell me what the sieve looks like, and I'll see if I can make it!"

"Okay!" Huanyan said expectantly, and then described the appearance of the sieve to Uncle Jian.

"Huanyan, this is really hard to do!"

"Okay, that's okay! Uncle, you're busy!" Huanyan left disappointed.

As for running out to seek death, Huanyan is not that stupid. She has nothing now, and going out would be seeking death. This is also the reason why Huanyan has not gone to find the fruit yet.

Watching Yao and others working together to grind the rice into powder, Huanyan thought about how to make rice noodles, then directed them to start taking action, and Qing also joined in.

After three days of hard work, they finally made all the rice noodles into strips, and then exposed them to the sun. After drying, they can be stored for a long time!

"Sister, the kang is dry, let's try it now!" Yao ran over excitedly and said.

Huanyan suddenly remembered the kang and quickly ran to her home.

Huanyan reached out and touched the kang surface. It was still a little damp, but almost dry. There were some slight cracks on the kang surface, but it was not a big problem. She could just use some mud to dry them up.

Huanyan asked Yao to bring some firewood, and then used the old method of drilling wood to make fire. She stuffed the firewood into the kang hole and lit it. Then she asked Yao to jump on it to see if it was strong enough, in case the kang collapsed in the middle of the night.

Yao didn't dare to jump at first, but Huanyan said so, then he boldly jumped a few times. It was okay, it didn't collapse, it was very solid!

Huanyan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. With this kang, she wouldn't have to worry about freezing to death in the winter. However, she still had to see if the kang had good heat conductivity.

Yao jumped down from the kang and waited beside him with Huanyan. Shun, Yu, Shi and Qing also didn't leave. They were all very excited at the moment.

"It's hot!" After waiting for a long time, Shi couldn't help but put his hand on the kang and felt the faint warmth, but it was enough to shock him.

Huanyan reached out her hand and touched it, then jumped onto the kang and touched it all over again, a smile spread across her face, "Success!"

"Huanyan, can I build one for my house now?" Shun asked excitedly.

"Of course, I'll tell everyone when I come back in the evening. The temperature of the kang will be higher at night, and it will be easier to test it then!" Huanyan said after thinking for a while.

"Yes, then let's go get some more bricks!" Yao suggested loudly.

"Yes, hurry up and make more earthen bricks. I'll go to Grandpa Huluteng's place for a while!" Yao took Shun and a few others to work, while Huanyan went to Huluteng to chat with the old man for a while, transferred green energy again, and then walked behind Huluteng.

I've been here for so many days, and there's nothing I haven't seen behind this!

Of course, Huanyan was not idle either. She carried a basket and walked along the river bank, picking up river shrimps, crabs and the like. Because she kept her head down, Huanyan did not pay attention to the situation in front of her.

Knowing that Huanyan's way was blocked by weeds, Huanyan reached out and pushed them away, and found that there seemed to be a lot of weeds. Then she looked up and realized that she had walked a long way without realizing it.

After taking another closer look, Huanyan was happy. This was not weeds at all, but clearly a huge reed marsh!

There was no need to think about bamboo mats, but reed mats were still possible. However, she had only seen reed mats, and had no idea how to weave a happy face. However, she had come here many times before, so this time wouldn't make a difference.

Moreover, reed marshes have always been places where wild ducks gather, so there should be a lot of duck eggs. I just don’t know how aggressive the ducks here are!

Huanyan did not dare to be careless. She put the basket aside and held several green beads in her hand. These were made by her when she had time for self-defense. Huanyan found that every time she exhausted her energy and then went to practice, the energy she got would be a little more than before.

Huanyan walked in carefully. Before she had taken a few steps, she saw a nest of green duck eggs. She counted them and found there were ten in total. Huanyan happily picked up seven and put them into the gourd space.

The remaining three stayed in the nest and continued to move forward. However, there were too many duck eggs here. You could really encounter a nest of wild duck eggs every few steps, with the number ranging from eight to fifteen. But you haven’t seen any wild ducks yet!

Huanyan didn't plan to go any further. In such a short while, she had picked up about a hundred duck eggs. She would bring her tribesmen to pick up the eggs in a few days.

Huanhuan carefully left the reed marsh and looked back at it reluctantly. It was a pity that she didn't bring a stone knife with her today, otherwise she could have cut a bundle of reeds and brought them back.
