Chapter 35. Oil extraction and heavy rain

Chapter 35. Oil extraction and heavy rain

    Early the next morning, there were several more people on the prairie bending over and pulling weeds.

    Several people were wearing coats and sun hats, and the plucked oil sedges next to them had piled up into a hill.

    "If this can be successfully squeezed out, isn't this an oil field?" Jiang Ma said with emotion as she looked at this endless field.

    Dad Jiang slapped his back and said not at all very happy, "Then we have to abolish the weeds alone, not to mention the follow-up oil extraction project."

    Jiang's mother gave him a white look and knew that he was in the limelight to splash cold water.

    A few people put the grass they pulled out next to the entrance of the cave. Ma Jiang picked all the beans on the sedge and put them in a basket on the side. The sedge beans were small and somewhat similar in color to potatoes.

    The water flowed out of the bottle tree. Jiang Ma squatted over there and washed the oily beans one by one, shook the water on them, and put them in the bamboo radish next to them.

    The three people over there met head-to-head and looked at the "Heavenly Creation" in Jiang Zhaoci's hand. The book contained the chapter on ointment.

    "There are many ways to extract oil, which one do we use?" Jiang Dad looked at the old paragraph in the book, and his head was big.

    Jiang Zhaoci pointed to the picture above and said, "Dad, you can make this oil-pressing tool."

    Dad Jiang brought the book over, carefully looked at the picture above, and observed it for a long time before returning the book to them. Holding the tools, he began to make gestures on the balsa wood that he chopped down yesterday.

    After Jiang Ma and Jiang Zhaoci were muttering over there, they started to light a fire and put the pottery pot, put the oil sage fruit that had been crushed with tools into the red-hot pottery pot, and began to stir fry continuously. Jiang Zhaobai kept adding firewood to  Control the heat.

    After Jiang Ma felt that the stir-frying was almost done, she immediately took out the pot, put the oily salsa pomace on the bamboo steamer prepared yesterday, and started steaming.

    "How long does it take to steam, and there is no watch to tell the time." After Jiang Ma put it on, she thought of this thorny problem.

    A few people, look at me, I look at you, and the final decision is based on feeling. This time they were originally testing the water. If they fail, they will learn their lessons and come back later.

    Jiang Dad gave up the oil-pressing tools that needed to be crafted for a long time. Instead, he chose to go to the river beach outside, called Jiang Zhaobai, and went to choose some big rocks.

    The two people picked and picked up on the beach, and finally moved a large round stone, and then picked a large slate.

    When she went back, Jiang Ma just put the steamed oil sago fruit on the cloth.

    Jiang Zhaoci hurriedly spread the dried wheat stalks on the ground and wrapped them in cloth. The two of them wrapped the remaining wheat stalks together into a round cake.

    "I didn't have time to make that tool before. I saw that there was a method to squeeze with a lever, but I don't know if it would work or not. Let's try it." Jiang Dad and Jiang Zhaobai came back with the cleaned slate and explained to the two of them.

    Put the slate on the stone table, put the wrapped oil sago on it, then surround the slate with a long wooden piece, leave an opening, and put a drum under it.
