Chapter 741 - Your Mission



Chapter 741: Your Mission

Little Shi Tou led the way, and the children scrambled to make their stand.

Next to Shi Tou was Little An An:

“Yeah, I’ll donate too. I still have a lot of toys, I’ll donate all of them!”

Chi Xinxin also scrambled to say,

“Village chief, Xinxin will donate too.”

As for the two youngest, little Ningning and little Yuer, although they didn’t quite understand, their elder brother and elder sister both said that they would donate, so they would do it!

“Village chief, Yuer also wants to donate!”

“Yes, yes, yes, Ningning also wants to donate!”

The village chief was so touched by the children that he almost could not hold back his tears. Fortunately, he managed to hold back his tears in the end. Otherwise, crying in front of these little radish heads would really be quite embarrassing:

“Good, good, good. They are all good children.

Let’s go, village chief will bring you there.”

The group of little radish heads obediently followed behind Yang Yu and finally arrived at a stone mill not far away.

This was the first time the children had seen such an old-fashioned agricultural tool that could not be seen in a big city.

They circled around it a few times out of curiosity.

“Village chief, what is this?” Little Shi Tou asked.

Yang Yu pointed at the stone mill:

“This is called a stone mill. It first appeared during the Warring States period. 475 bc-221 BC. It’s about 2,500 years ago now.”

2500 years?

The children couldn’t figure it out.

After all, the oldest child was only five years old. He wasn’t even six years old yet.

“Children, watch carefully. After this, we will put the rice into this hole. The glutinous rice will fall into the middle of the two layers and move outward along the texture. When it rolls past the two layers, it will be ground to form powder. As for us, we only need to operate that lever.”

With the staff demonstrating the movements, the children watched carefully and seriously.

After the stone mill spun a few times, the staff stopped. Yang Yu asked again,

“Children, do you understand?”

“I understand.”

“It’s not difficult.”

“It’s easy!”

PFFT

Hearing the children’s confident words, the village chief and the surrounding staff could not help but laugh.

How innocent and naive children are. When you all do it with your own hands, you’ll know whether it’s difficult or simple.

“Who wants to try first?”

“Village chief, me, me, me.”

All the children scrambled to raise their hands.

“Yes, let’s go with the oldest. Little Shi Tou, come over here.”

The excited little Shi Tou quickly went forward and the staff went forward to teach him how to do it:

“Do you understand?”

“I understand. Then I’ll start.”

“Okay.”

The little rock first poured some glutinous rice into the hole and then started pushing according to the staff’s instructions.

But no matter how hard he pushed, he could not move it.

After all, he was still small and did not have enough strength.

Yang Yu spoke to the children again:

“An An, go help Shi Tou.”

“Okay.”

With An An’s help, the two children slightly moved the lever.

The stone mill let out sizzling sounds. Soon, something powdery actually fell out.

“Village chief, is that it?” Little Shi Tou became even more excited.

Yang Yu nodded:

“Yes, that’s right. This is the kind of powder that needs to be grounded out. Both children are very good. I’ll leave the rest to you.”

There was about five kilograms of glutinous rice in the basin next to them. If anyone wanted to grind it all into powder, it would take some time, let alone children.

The staff put on gloves for each child and the children were all very curious.

Among the five children, it originally intended to be Shi Tou and An An in a group, and the other three children to be in a group.
