Chapter 499: Shocking the Fields

The only thing that made them somewhat regretful was that other than Lin yuelan, the others were all tall and burly men. When they bent down, they could see their backs and legs, but they couldn’t see any of their movements at all. Therefore, they couldn’t judge how to use it.
However, some of the more courageous people saw that there were still two small sickles left in the basket and immediately could not resist their eagerness to try.
One of them, who looked strong and burly, but also a little honest, said to Lin yuelan, “Girl, I want to borrow your small sickle to try it out. Is that okay? ”
Everyone was clear that this field belonged to Lin yuelan, so she was the owner of everything here, although these men had been managing the field for the past few months.
Lin yuelan raised her head and glanced at his expression. She didn’t say anything but just nodded.
When the brawny man saw this, he only said, ” thank you!” Then, he picked up the small sickle from the basket and went to the other side to cut the rice.
He moved it a few times. His face was immediately filled with surprise. He looked at the small sickle and said excitedly, “This is amazing!”
When the other villagers saw this, they immediately asked, ” Zhou Shu, how is it? Is this small sickle really useful? ”
Zhou Shu nodded and replied, “It’s really useful. It’s much more useful than all the Sickles we usually have. These small Sickles are light, effortless, and very sharp. As soon as the knife touches the rice, the rice is cut off.”
Only by personally experiencing it would one be able to explain how magical this thing was.
When the others heard this, they immediately felt a sense of eagerness.
Someone said, ” Zhou Shu, let me try. Let me try.”
Zhou Shu immediately snorted at him. “go away. If you want to try, you should ask the owner. What’s the point of asking me? ”
As a true farmer, any tool improvement would bring them great convenience.
Don’t look down on this small sickle. It saved a lot of trouble.
Since Zhou Shu had spoken first, some of the people behind him didn’t care about Lin yuelan’s jinx reputation anymore. They also spoke directly, wanting to try using this small sickle that they had never seen or used before.
In the end …
“Wow, it’s really good. I can cut the rice with one hand. It’s effortless and light.”
“Using such a small sickle to cut rice, even if it’s ten or eight mu, it’s still very fast. You don’t need to bend your back and get sore, and your hands may not have cramps.”
While some of the villagers were trying out the small sickle, Lin yuelan and the others had already harvested half of the paddy field.
They were all people with strength, and the work of harvesting rice was simple.
When Lin yuelan saw that it was about time, she called Jiang Zhennan, little three and little six, and said, ” let them harvest the rice, and we will take off the grains.” Harvesting rice didn’t take too much energy, so Guo Bing, little twelve, and Doctor Zhang were left to harvest the rice.
Jiang Zhennan, little three, and little six immediately took the small Sickles obediently and walked to the edge of the field.
They first put the knives in a small basket.
This change made the villagers who were watching the fun feel a little puzzled.
Why did he suddenly stop harvesting the rice and come back?
Then, under their confusion, Lin yuelan, Jiang Zhennan, and the rest bent over and piled the bundles of rice they had cut into the center of the field.
Soon, most of the harvested rice had been piled up into a small mountain.
What was he doing?
The harvested rice was not tied up, but piled up.
After the rice was piled up, Jiang Zhennan, Little Six, and Little Three pushed the big thing that had been placed by the side of the field down and placed it directly in front of the pile of rice.
After setting up the shed, two people stood on it, one on each side.
“What are they doing?” Seeing their actions, the people watching were even more confused.
A series of engine starting sounds rang out.
“What’s that sound?” The sudden voice also confused the villagers. “Could it be the sound of a bird?”
“No, it’s the sound of the thing in front of them.”
