The wood mage and the native brother

Fortunately, the grinding is large, and the powder produced by one grinding is enough for Ji Deng to grind for half a day.Fei Nuoxin took a bowl and poured it into the mill and turned it around a few times, then he sat beside Ji Deng with peace of mind, but he took the bowl that Ji Deng had ground half, and started to grind slowly while holding the small pestle.

Ji Deng had thought for a long time that Fei Nuo would not be able to grind it for a long time, so he was not too surprised, scooped up a new bowl of corn flour and said with a smile,

"If you're tired, go and rest, I'll do it."

Feinuo used the small pestle to make circles in the bowl in a lack of interest, but his lazy arm rested on the stone table, and he only turned his wrist. Fortunately, some invisible wooden elements went down the stone pestle and were ground out The ones are actually three points more delicate and crystal clear than those of Ji Deng.heard that,

"It doesn't matter, anyway, I have nothing to do, just sit with you for a while."

Ji Deng let him go, but occasionally couldn't help but sneak a glance at Fei Nuo.

Although it was casual, it still reminded Ji Deng of the days when we baked and sold cypress together on the mountain.

It's time to be content.

Ji Deng withdrew his gaze and concentrated on grinding the fine powder in the bowl.

One big and one small sit quietly in one place with corn flour, and soon, the sun will set and the moon will rise.

After sitting for an entire afternoon, even though Ji Deng was used to the work, he couldn't help the pain in his waist and back, and his hands were already stiff.Not to mention the delicate and soft Fei Nuo, who just wanted to go to bed early and didn't even want to eat dinner.

But Ji Deng is not allowed, and Fei Nuo stopped him from cooking.So the family of three went out and ate something hastily at the stall and let it go.

The Butterfly Powder was not in a hurry to get it, Ji Deng wanted to collect the things and talk about it tomorrow when he came back, so he and Ji Xiaomei put away the bowls and spices in the house.When it was Grinding's turn, it was Fei Nuo who volunteered, but Fino rolled up his sleeves and blushed, and Grinding still stood motionless on the stone table.

Fino tried two or three more times, but the grinder still remained motionless on the stone table, but the momentary strain on his already sore arm made it even more uncomfortable.Ji Xiaomei leaned against Ji Deng, covered her mouth and giggled, even Ji Deng couldn't help laughing, at least she saved some face for Fei Nuo and didn't laugh out loud.

Although those crooked eyes have already exposed Ji Deng's smile.

Feinuo was embarrassed for a moment, so he could only stare at Grinding angrily, and walked back to the house with his head held high, looking reasonable.

"I'll use it tomorrow, just let it hang there!"

Ji Xiaomei and Ji Deng looked at each other and laughed even more happily.

……

Corn is food, although it is not as staple food as rice and wheat, but because few people grow it, the price is not cheap.Fortunately, if a catty of corn is ground finely, a dozen boxes of incense powder can be made.And this face powder is far more famous than hair oil powder, and the price is not low.

Even if the cost of grinding, bowls, and cloves left over from before are all included, a box of Ji Deng can earn much more than hair-removing oil powder, and it is really a good business with ten profits.

"So this fan is from the Girl Doll's house... and the little brother wiped the butterflies?"

Fei Nuo was very helpless. After washing, drying and grinding, it was finally made to attract butterflies?To put it on Noah's female mage, what can be easily solved by reciting a spell, but it is so complicated and complicated to put it on the people of Da'an.

But I don't know what I thought of, Fei Nuo's dark green pupils suddenly lit up, and he said with great interest,

"You want to recruit butterflies? Let me help you."

Just say a mantra to confuse the butterfly mind or gather the fragrance of the flowers, and the butterflies will be recruited naturally.

Ji Deng held the small pestle, not knowing whether to laugh or cry,

"It's just that it's called 'Butterfly Greeting Powder', it doesn't really attract butterflies."

Speaking, Ji Deng explained while beating the powder in the mortar with a small pestle,

"This powder needs to be ground to fineness to be considered good. It's not difficult, but the intermediate process is more complicated, and people who don't have a recipe can't think of it."

Ji Deng picked a little bit with his fingertips and put it in front of Fei Nuo's dark green pupils,

"Look, just grind it like this."

Fei Nuo took a closer look, the powder was delicate and crystal clear, somewhat similar to pearl powder, if you don't mention it, you really can't figure out that it is ground with grains eaten by ordinary people.

Fei Nuo picked a little more, but it was extremely fine and smooth.

Seeing Fei Nuo's amazed expression, Ji Deng smiled and said,

"After grinding, it's ready, and it can be sold in a box. When you use it, you just need to mix it with a little water, apply it on your face, hands, or body, and wash it off after a while. If you use it for a long time Yes, not only the skin color becomes whiter and the skin texture becomes thinner, but also the body has a lingering fragrance due to the fragrance powder added when drying the rice. I added cloves this time, and the next time I use other fragrance powder, it will have a different taste. This recipe is Gong The empresses in the house are also using it, and when it is put in the shop, there must be a lot of girls and boys coming to buy it."

As he said that, Ji Deng seemed to see the scene where the shoppers came like clouds and his purse was bulging, and a smile appeared on his face.

When Fino saw it, he showed a thoughtful expression, and bought a lot of wood the next day, including wood chips, sticks, and strips.So I found Ji Deng Dao, which was busy grinding powder, with great interest.

"I'll change the wood to make a small box this time, so you can take a good look at my craftsmanship."

Ji Deng just happened to think about the container, and it's not that he didn't want to ask Tofino to help.It's just that these days people rely on clothes to dress Buddha and gold clothes, and if you want to sell incense powder at a good price, you must have a good container.As for the high-quality incense powder in the shop outside, could it be that they are packed in porcelain boxes, and the ones made of wood or bamboo are rarely useful.

Ji Deng originally wanted to grit his teeth and buy a more delicate porcelain vase, take the route of making a lot of money and selling less, and wait for the money to be abundant before making more.But seeing that Fei Nuo was already sitting there with a carving knife busy, he swallowed the words again.

It was also himself who made the photo.I didn't have much money to spare, and I wanted to learn from the richness of big shops, but I was afraid that I would lose my wife and lose my army in the end.It's better to take it one step at a time and take it slowly.

What's more, the bamboo box that Fei Nuo made before was small and cute, so many girls and boys who came to buy it all fell in love with the box, even if it was used up, they would not be willing to throw it away.Even Mr. Xu asked Ji Deng where he found the box, but because Fei Nuo didn't want to make it for outsiders, Ji Deng didn't tell.

But these are enough to show how good Fei Nuo's craftsmanship is, perhaps, it can attract more people to buy than porcelain vases and porcelain boxes.

But it troubled Finuo again.

Ji Deng secretly sighed.

It's just that this wood is not like bamboo strips, and inexperienced people have nowhere to start.Ji Deng couldn't help at all this time, and felt a little ashamed, but it was Fei Nuo who comforted him instead,

"Just grinding that powder is a labor-intensive job. After finishing it, my back often hurts. The most disgusting thing is that I only have that little bit after working for a long time. Although I keep saying to help you, it doesn't help. It's just a moment Box, I’m so tired that I need you to follow along. If you don’t despise me, how can I despise you.”

After finishing speaking, Fino put the finished wooden box in Ji Deng's hand,

"Look, are you satisfied?"

Ji Deng frowned when he heard the words, how could it be the same, Fei Nuo didn't have to work so hard.But looking at Fei Nuo's shining green eyes, he didn't say this after all, and lowered his head to look at the wooden box the size of a chicken in the palm of his hand.

"How about it?"

The dark green pupils were filled with anticipation, but on the face there was a look of nonchalant, casual questioning.

Ji Deng thought about it carefully, and smiled at Fei Nuo who couldn't help but look away,

"great!"

Grinding corn is a hard job, and it usually takes an hour to grind it to get a little bit bigger than a chicken.Even though Ji Deng had thought about it a long time ago, after buying only three catties, it took a full month to grind it, and Fei Nuo helped him grind it into coarse powder first.

Seeing that there was only the last bit left, Ji Deng thought about working harder, so that he could free up his hands to do other things tomorrow after finishing today.

Talking about the last point, in fact, there is still more than half a bowl waiting for Ji Deng to grind it bit by bit, at least it will take two or three hours.Seeing that Ji Deng stretched his waist and wanted to do it again, Fei Nuo quickly winked at Ji Xiaomei, and the two pushed Ji Deng back into the room with coaxing.

"That's all. I'll grind it out for you tonight. You can go to sleep in peace."

Fino swears by it.

Ji Deng really couldn't let it go, with only Fei Nuo's little scholarly strength, if he really wanted to finish the bowl, he might not be able to sleep tonight.

Fei Nuo's face twitched slightly, but he pretended that he didn't see Ji Deng's hesitant suspicion, and shut the siblings back into the room with a gesture of carelessness.

Ji Xiaomei is still young and dare not sleep alone in a room, she always sleeps with Ji Deng, so there is no need to bring bedding inside.

"Go to sleep, you've been tired for the past few days, look at the bruises under your eyes, it doesn't look good to wear clothes listlessly."

Hearing this, Ji Deng paused when he was about to push the door, but he couldn't help laughing at himself when he came back to his senses.

Even though he knew that Fei Nuo didn't regard him as his husband, he still cared about how he looked in his eyes.

With Ji Deng's brilliance, Fei Nuo sat back at the table long ago.First, he pretended to be honest and used the stone pestle for a long time. When the moon was over and the breathing of the people in the room became stable, Fei Nuo threw away the stone pestle and stood up.

Standing against the wind, his robes are calm and automatic, with no sadness or joy on his face, he uses his fingers as a staff, closes his eyes and raises his hands to quickly stroke in the air. At the same time, complex, obscure and unfamiliar incantations spit out from his mouth. It's like the characters are mottled and flickering in the night, gathered at the fingertips and distributed according to the trend. In the end, the golden pattern is the background, and the dark green runes are printed on it.

The dark green eyes suddenly opened, and Fei Nuo pointed a little farther away, the starlight wood color escaped the fluorescent spots, and rushed into the magic circle like the wind, and then the green light shone, covering the entire small courtyard.

The grinding stone pestle moves without drive, grinding the powder in the container steadily and regularly. The fine and crystal powder glitters with stars and green lights and falls into the wooden box with the light. The box closes tightly with a "click", firmly stacked on the table.

The coarse powder in the bowl flew up with the light, drilled into the mortar, and continued to be ground by the stone pestle.

At the same time, large and small pieces of wood also floated up, surrounded by clusters of green light, and when the green light dissipated, small wooden boxes with complicated patterns and exquisite structures fell to the ground, neatly stacked into several piles, waiting To accommodate the finished product of butterfly powder.

Fino took a few deep breaths to stabilize his mind, held his breath and continued to supply the magic power of the magic circle.

After all, it is not as good as before, and he is already beyond his power to control so many things.

Fortunately, for Fei Nuo, driving spells and magic circles is much easier than doing it himself.The moonlight was just about to move over the treetops, and all the powdered wood disappeared. Boxes of Butterfly Powder replaced it, neatly stacked in one place.

Although physically and mentally exhausted due to the temporary overdraft of magic power, Fino moved his fingers and directed the vines to send all kinds of things back to their proper places and put them away, especially including the grinding.

After everything was finally over, Fei Nuo yawned and went back to the house slowly.

Tomorrow, he must sleep until daylight. He has put in so much effort, Ji Deng has to thank him very much.

Thinking of Ji Deng Worship's expression of gratitude and admiration tomorrow, Fei Nuo collapsed on the soft big bed, and fell asleep with a smile on his head.
