There is a water mill near Bell's house, where a father and son live. Usually, some heavy work is done by young people. Later, young people were recruited as soldiers, leaving the old man to grind his face to make a living. When there is little water, the waterwheel can't move, and the old man can't grind powder, so he has to starve. Bell saw it and felt sorry for him, so he asked some children to help.

When there is water shortage, it is really not easy to grind noodles. We must promote the development of stone mill together. At first, everyone thought it was fun, but they were willing to help. Later, when they were tired, they left one after another, leaving Bell alone and naturally unable to push.

When Bell got home, he sat in his father's study and thought hard: How can we push the stone mill easily? After a month of research, he came up with a good idea. First, improve the grinding teeth to reduce friction, and then use the round shape of wheat grains to make them close to each other, so that the rotation of grinding teeth is much more flexible.
