I was a village chief in a primitive society

Chapter 140: A little sad? (3 more please customize)

Yuying looked at the sand in the iron pot and asked curiously:"Witch, why do you need to pour the sand in?"

"Heat it up to make the feather rod stiffer."Su Bai explained. It was really interesting to see the fox-eared lady's confused look.

"Heat the sand?

Yuying suspected that she heard wrongly and continued to ask:"Wu, do you really want to heat the sand?" Just use this iron pot?"

"Yes, just use this iron pot and turn up the heat."Su Bai said seriously.

"good."Yu Ying scratched the fox's ears, squatted by the fire pit and started to open firewood.

The fox-eared girl pouted and muttered, her brows furrowed tightly, and she was always puzzled.

"Ha ha ha ha.....You'll find out later."Su Bai couldn't help but laugh.

It was really the way Lady Hu'er was so stupid that she didn't dare to ask. It was so cute that she wanted to pinch her cheeks.

Ten minutes later, Lady Fox's house brought a lot of firewood and put the food in the iron pot. The sand is heated until it smokes

"Witch, cough cough.....So cough cough......Is that enough?"Yu Ying choked on the smoke several times.

Su Bai walked over, looked at the sand in the iron pot, and said,"It should be fine. Drink some water and take a rest.""

In fact, the sand needs to be heated to more than 100 degrees Celsius. Unfortunately, there is no thermometer now, so it is impossible to measure the current temperature of the sand.

Su Bai did not insist on adding it to the certain value, so he had to rely on his feeling to feel that it was okay.

"Wu, did you bury the feathers in it?"Yu Ying said curiously, holding many feathers in her hands.

"You don't need to bury the whole one, just stick the featherless part into the sand."Su Bai took the feathers and started to demonstrate.

The feathers were evenly inserted into the sand, and then the iron pot was moved down from the fire pit.

Yu Ying looked at the whole pot of feathers and asked:"Witch , is this okay? How long do you have to wait?"

"Just wait a little more than ten minutes, then pull them out and proceed to the next step."Su Bai explained

"fifteen minutes?

Yuying's pink eyes turned and asked:"Wu, what is fifteen minutes?""

Su Bai covered his face with one hand, forgetting these words and things that even Fox-Eared Girl didn't know yet.

He took out his pocket watch and explained to Fox-Eared Girl:"Look, it's been fifteen minutes since you turned it here."

"It turns out that’s the case. This thing can move on its own. It’s really amazing. Is it due to witchcraft?"Yuying was very curious about this gadget.

When she saw the pocket watch for the first time, although she was very curious, she didn't dare to ask to see it. This was the first time she had seen it up close.

"Hahaha......It's not witchcraft, it's technology. Just take it and tell me when the time comes."Su Bai smiled.

"yes."Yu Ying carefully took the pocket watch with both hands, tilted her head and murmured to herself,"What is technology?"

Su Bai walked up to the stone table and began to think about the specific steps to make a quill.

When he was writing novels on the earth, he had probably written a book on this subject, but it took a long time to write. , the memory was more or less rusty.

The fox-eared lady looked straight at her pocket watch, not daring to look elsewhere for fear of missing something.

Fifteen minutes later, Yuying stood up immediately, pulled out all the feathers, and said :"Witch, we have arrived......It's fifteen minutes"

"good."Su Bai stood up and walked over. After taking a few, he returned to the stone table.

Yu Ying stayed nearby obediently and asked:"Witch, is this the quill ready?"

"Not yet, I still need to make some pen tips so that the written words will be slim." Su Bai explained.

Making the pen head can be said to be the most technical thing for a quill pen. Those who are handicapped may say that they will go crazy. The fox-eared girl just nodded along, her pink eyes full of question marks, waiting for Su Bai The next step. When

Su Bai saw the other party's appearance, he thought of a sentence: Children, do you have a lot of big question marks in your little head?

Of course, making pen heads may be a bit difficult for people in the tribe, but For a modern person like Su Bai, it's not bad.

Because the ancestor of the fountain pen is the feather pen, he still knows about fountain pens, not to mention the fruit knife, which is not bad to make.

Su Bai picked up the fruit knife and whittled it at the root of the feather. One cut is used as the nib of the quill pen.

The thickness of the cut determines the thickness of the writing. It all depends on the individual's writing style. Su Bai sharpened it very sharply.

After sharpening the nib, He made another upward cut in the middle of the pen tip, dividing the pen tip into two parts.

"ah! Wu, weren't you just writing? Why do we have to cut it apart again?"Yu Ying felt a little distressed for the newly made pen tip.

"This is called the ink tank, and this cutout is used to store ink."Su Bai explained

"So that's it."Yu Ying blushed slightly and squatted down again.

Su Bai smiled and continued his operation. He drew the double eyelid line along the ink slot, and finally used a needle to pierce a hole in the middle of the middle line.

He picked up the feather He shook the pen and said with a smile:"Okay, the quill is ready."

"......"Yuying's pink eyes kept wide open, her eyes always falling on the quill.

Su Bai couldn't wait any longer. He took out the juice of the black stone nut, dipped a quill in it, took out the pennisetum paper and started writing.

He looked at the tiny strokes on the pennisetum paper, nodded with satisfaction, and said,"Perfect, the quill was made successfully."

"Great, we finally don’t have to use charcoal."Yu Ying said with a soft and cute smile.

"Yeah, no need for charcoal."Su Bai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Why did he feel that this sentence was a bit sad.

He handed the quill to the fox-eared girl and said:"Come on, try it and write down what I taught you before."

"good."Yu Ying took over the quill excitedly and buried herself on the stone table to write the numbers she had learned before.

Numbers from one to ten suddenly appeared on the Wolf's tail paper, and they were very slender and regular.

The fox-eared lady stopped in surprise. He put down his quill and turned his head to look at Su Bai, hoping to get a compliment.

"Well written, this first pen is given to you."Su Bai said gently.

"Thank you Wu."Yu Ying kept waving her fox tail happily..........................................
