When it is time to thresh, place the rice bed on a wide field. People hold bundles of harvested rice and slam it hard on it. The rice and firewood chips will fall down in the gaps of the small bamboo poles, pile them under the rice bed, and then pick them out and stir clean in the wind.

But this is very slow, and after a day, everyone's waists were so tired that they couldn't straighten up, and their arms were so sore that they couldn't lift them up.

The threshing tool designed by Mu Xiu was seen in later generations. This threshing machine is very suitable for farmers who cannot afford threshing machines in poor areas. The principle is similar to a bicycle. First, use wooden blocks to make a table look like a table. There is no tabletop, only wooden legs on four sides. Put a roller at the position where the tabletop should be placed. The roller is made of wooden piles. The solid wood inside is smashed from top to bottom, which can make it rotate, and horizontal strips are chiseled out on the surface of the wooden pile. This is the roller.

A rope was tied to the two wooden legs in front of the table, and a net was set up. Two foot pedals were made on the two wooden legs in the back. They were tied to the roller handle in front with iron wire, and used the foot pedal as power to drive it. It was relatively simple to work. As long as a person stood there, kept kicking with his feet, holding the rice in his hand, and put it on the roller, the rice inside would fall on the net in front with the rotation of the roller.

Through the screening of the net, the rice grains fall into the back of the net. Such a machine does not use electricity or oil. If you are not afraid of fatigue, it is no problem to thresh three acres of rice in a day.

After lunch, Mu Xiu directed, Mu Shui and Chen Xuhui tinkered for an afternoon, and finally made it in the evening.

Mu Xiaocao didn't know what Mu Xiu was doing, but later she saw Mu Xiu fiddling with this thing. The more she looked, the more familiar she looked. After she finished it, she couldn't help but be surprised. Isn't this the threshing machine that everyone often uses in the village later?

Because she didn't grow rice at home, Mu Xiaocao didn't think about the threshing machine at all. Seeing Mu Xiu actually pounded it out, she looked at Mu Xiu and asked hesitantly: "Xiu, is this what the book said?"

Mu Xiu stretched out her tongue secretly, why did she forget Mu Xiaocao again? The main reason is that although this sister was reborn, she felt that except for her personality, nothing was visible, which led to her always forgetting about Mu Xiaocao's rebirth.

"Yes, what I saw in a book in the provincial capital said that some places in the south have already started to be used." Mu Xiu said casually. Anyway, this thing was spread all over the country later, and no one knew when and where it came from.

After hearing Mu Xiu's answer, Mu Xiaocao nodded. Yes, Mu Xiu is knowledgeable, and it is not surprising that she has seen this threshing machine.

"Brother Chen, put on the ox cart, let's take this to the threshing farm." Mu Xiu saw Mu Xiaocao stop asking, and she quickly said to Chen Xuhui.

This simple threshing machine was not heavy, and Mushui and Chen Xuhui easily carried it to the ox cart.

At this moment, many people were throwing rice on the threshing farm. Except for the eight families who raised fish in the rice fields in the village, the rice matured late because it was replanted last time. The rice of the other villagers had basically been dried and pulled to the threshing farm. They were moving fast, and even the rice grains were almost finished.

Now everyone saw Mu Xiu pulling over something like this that he had never seen before, and they surrounded him curiously.

"Mu Xiu, what new thing is this?" an uncle asked curiously.

"I made this for threshing rice. Who would like to try this threshing?" Mu Xiu replied with a smile.

"Look, you happened to be parked at the place where I cook rice, just my house." The sister-in-law of the Wang family rubbed her waist and stood up straight.

"Okay, let's try borrowing the rice from Wang's sister-in-law." Mu Xiu asked Chen Xuhui to put down the simple threshing machine.

After Mu Xiu set his seat, he bent down and picked up a handful of rice. She stood up and saw her pedaling and waiting. The roller kept turning. When the rice was put on, the rice grains fell down quickly.

"This thing is easy to use." Someone in the crowd said.

"Come on, I'll try." The sister-in-law of the Wang family took the rice from Mu Xiu's hand, followed her appearance, and kicked up.

"It's so simple. Look, I've learned it now and I'm not tired yet." The sister-in-law of the Wang family said in surprise. Soon the bundle of rice in her hand was finished. She grabbed another handful, and the speed was getting faster and faster.

"This is much faster than when we throw it with our hands." Someone exclaimed.

"This is called a simple threshing machine, which can thresh three acres of rice in a day." Chen Xuhui couldn't help but be happy when he saw everyone praising Mu Xiu, and said with his lips raised.

Sure enough, there were screams in the crowd again.

"Mu Xiu, let my family borrow this for one day first, and my family's rice is almost finished." Wang's sister-in-law made a reservation first.

"I'll borrow it for one day, too."

"My rice is almost finished, and half a day will be enough."

"Friends, this is for everyone to use. Today I will just try it. I will make two more tomorrow, which is enough for everyone to use." Mu Xiu said loudly.

"Mu Xiu's heart is good." Wang's sister-in-law praised.

"That's right, I won't forget the people of us, the villagers, what I do." Someone continued to praise.

With this simple threshing machine made by Mu Xiu, everyone quickly completed the threshing. Looking at the pile of golden grains, the entire Yingwu Village was filled with the joy of a bumper harvest.

The Mu family's rice harvest also achieved a bumper harvest. The first time there was so much white rice and white flour at home, which made everyone's face full of joy.

"Mom, it's really thanks to listening to you that our family has so much food!" Mu Sheng looked happy. He picked up a chopstick of fish and pulled a mouthful of white rice, and ate it very satisfying.

"It smells so good!" Mu Sheng swallowed the fish and rice in his mouth, and his eyes bent up after laughing.

"Mom, why did you think of buying a fish and eating it today?" Mu Gen asked in confusion while eating.

"Oh! When I mention it, my heart hurts. This fish was bought by Liu Dazhuang's family. It is 1 cent cheaper to sell to our family per pound than outside! I really regret that I didn't raise fish in the rice fields together. The fish in the two acres of land in Liu Dazhuang's family can be sold for hundreds of dollars!" Liu Yaomei was so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe when she thought of this.

"So much!" Mu Sheng looked surprised.

"No, it's a few hundred dollars!" Liu Yaomei put her hands in front of her chest.

"This Mu Xiu is really true. I heard that she raised fish in the rice field. She went to take advantage of this kind of good thing and didn't tell us. If she had promised us at that time, we would definitely raise it as well!" Wang Guiying's eyes rolled and then said angrily.
