Chapter 130: New timer? (2 more please customize)

At dusk, Su Bai asked people to bring the dried paper to the main tent, and wooden boards were placed on the stone table.

He pulled off the dried paper bit by bit from the wooden board, and an uneven piece of paper was born.

If paper is made according to the way on the earth, the pulp is spread flat on a large piece of bamboo curtain.

After it is dried, it will be more troublesome to manually separate it into pieces of paper.

So Su Bai simply asked Gu Mu to make a small wooden board with an area of ​​about 297mm*420mm, which might be a little off.

This size is relatively common on the Earth side, not too big or too small. After the pulp dries, it can be torn off directly and it will become a piece of paper.

Of course, he was the first to draw this size, just let Gu Mu follow the cat and the tiger.

"this......Which step was wrong?"Su Bai frowned, the expression on his face was a bit solemn.

The whole paper not only looked uneven, but also torn easily. There were holes everywhere, which looked very ugly.

Su Bai tore again. A few times, and then crumpled it into a ball to test the quality of the paper.

He put the crumpled paper ball down, sighed, and murmured to himself:"It seems that a certain step went wrong."

"Wu, is this paper?"Yu Ying's pink eyes looked at the piece of paper with surprise.

Yan Hua also fiddled with a piece, shaking it in her hand, and then holding it in front of her eyes for a while.

She tilted her neck and murmured :"How strange, is this just paper? Why are there so many small holes?"

Su Bai covered his face with one hand and smiled, and said:"This is paper, but it failed and needs to be remade."

"Remake?

Yanhua pulled the paper with her hand and said doubtfully:"Wu, doesn't it look good?" Why do you want to remake it?"

"This one is not up to standard, and the bumps and bumps really affect my writing. I will have to make a new batch tomorrow."Su Bai shrugged.

"ah? Then wouldn’t everything you do today work?"Yanhua's red eyes widened.

"Did you do a lot today?" Su Bai asked.

There is nothing that can be done now. It is inevitable that there will be some omissions in the first paper making. Let's take it as a lesson.

Yu Ying thought for a while, shook her head and said:"There are not many, because there are no wooden boards in the back. So I didn’t continue it."

"That's good."Su Bai breathed a sigh of relief. He thought it would waste a lot.

"Wu, what else is needed to remake it? I'll get ready tonight. Yuying asked curiously

"No need to make anything, just a few mistakes in the steps, which can be easily corrected."Su Bai said softly.

He thought over and over again, carefully debating the steps for making paper in the afternoon, and found a small loophole.

That is, when putting Pennisetum Rang into the barrel, he did not stir it well, so that it was not completely mixed. form pulp

"So that's it."Yu Ying said softly.

"Wu, Uncle Shanshan sent someone to deliver something."A reserve soldier shouted outside the tent.

"Xiaoyu, let him bring it in. It looks like the sundial is ready."Su Bai ordered.

Yu Ying nodded, turned around and opened the curtain of the tent to let the other party move the things in.

Su Bai looked at the sundial on the ground carefully, nodded with satisfaction and said,"Very good, follow me. Just as I ordered."

The size of the sundial is as big as the earth's basin, and there are scales all around. These scales are Arabic numerals, not Roman numerals.

After all, Su Bai taught Arabic numerals, and it looks more intuitive.

The middle of the sundial There was a small, slender wooden stick stuck in it. This wooden stick was used to determine the time.

Yanhua looked at the sundial curiously, stretched out his hand and poked it, and said curiously:"Witch, Is this an artifact that can tell time?"

"Can a big stone tell the time? Why did Yuying feel so unbelievable? She continued:"This is different from the thing in Wu's hand.""

"Of course these two are different."

Su Bai put away his pocket watch and said,"You can all understand this."

"Are there witchcraft numbers written on it? I can understand this."Yu Ying's soft and cute voice sounded.

"I can understand it too, but can you tell the time just by looking at numbers?"Yanhua still doesn't quite understand.

Niujiao Niang pursed her lips and kept observing the sundial, trying to figure out where to see the difference.

"You definitely won’t be able to tell if you look at it this way. You’ll have to wait until daytime. You’ll know it during the day."Su Bai said softly

"Can this stone be used at night?"Yu Ying asked innocently.

Su Bai raised her eyebrows slightly. This is indeed a problem. Although the sundial is simple and easy to understand, its only drawback is that it is not useful at night.

"Ahem......"

Su Bai coughed a few times and said,"There is a timer specifically for night."

A word flashed through his mind just now, and that was"leukeng"."Lukeqi" uses a pot to hold water, and uses the principle of water balance and dripping to observe Use the data displayed on the scale in the pot to calculate time.

This is not difficult to make. It was also a common timer in ancient times on earth.

"A timer for the evening?"Yu Ying feels that the amount of knowledge today has been overloaded.

"Well, we will find out tomorrow when someone makes it, but this may take some time."Su Bai explained

"I see."Yu Ying flicked the fox

's tail. As long as you listen to the witch and wait, you will always see the results. This is what the fox-eared lady has always thought.

Su Bai walked to the stone table, picked up the charcoal and poured it on the beast. Drawing on the leather, he wanted to draw the making of the engraved cleats.

Tomorrow he could make them out of ancient wood. In this era, there were no transparent bottles for engraved cleats, so we had to use wood..........................................
