Chapter 215 Sugar

Cheng Hong has been busy with the affairs of the sugar factory and the shipyard in the past few days, and the ship is easy to say, after Feng Zhiji goes back, the ship's materials have been transported here in cars and ships!

And Cheng Zhou also began to build ships according to the drawings, so he got a small hand first! It is said to be small, but compared to what is the score, this small boat is not much smaller than the five-tooth big ship! I got a 39-meter one from the direct start!

In addition to the new watertight compartment, in order to be able to travel in the river, a paddle wheel is also specially installed, according to Cheng Hong's idea, as long as the cross crossbar is pushed like a grinding, it can be transmitted to the paddle wheel through a power gear!

The paddle wheel flies, and the boat can move forward quickly. Therefore, this type of ship can only be used as a coastal area, or as an offshore to inland transport vessel!

In the future, when building a big ship, you will definitely not be able to use this thing, and when you get to the sea, you can borrow the wind from the southeast, northwest, and northwest, as long as you operate it properly, it is not difficult to go against the wind!

Cheng Hong stared at it for about ten days, and it was nothing to see, although Cheng Zhou had a lot of doubts, but the craftsmanship of shipbuilding was hard to get! The only thing is that ~ Cheng Zhou doesn't believe that the culet-bottomed boat can not overturn on the water!

In the end, Cheng Hong gave a death order, the ship must be built according to the drawings, if it is better to build a flat-bottomed ship, it is better to build a five-tooth ship, it is necessary to build a sharp-bottomed ship! That's it.

Cheng Hong put down the shipyard matter and began to study the sugar factory, this thing can't do without him! Along with the ship's feed, there are countless carts of sugar cane! They were all collected by Cheng Hong, one copper plate and two roots!

That's a lot of money, you must know that now the bucket of rice is only 36 yuan, and the land with one bucket of rice is far larger than the land of 72 sugar canes! You must know that 36 yuan of doumi is the selling price of the grain store, and collecting 25 yuan from you is considered a conscientious purchase!

Cheng Hong looked at the mountains of sugarcane and began to prepare to make sugar, and Wu Erya and Li Lizhen heard that Cheng Hong was going to make sugar, so they hurriedly ran to see the excitement, these two people love sweets the most.

This sugarcane Cheng Hong is watching, otherwise these two girls won't even eat for a day, so they will drink sugarcane juice. Hearing that Cheng Hong was going to make sugar, he hurriedly ran over.

Now these two little girls are completely free of themselves, except for Cheng Hong's morning reading time, they run around the construction site, or they will shoot fish with two small crossbow arrows.

Sugarcane sugar is the easiest, but Cheng Hong's sugar is a little better than the Tang on the market now, and the one on the market is almost the same as the stove sugar that Cheng Hong ate when he was a child!

And Cheng Hong can definitely make sugar similar to that of later generations, and bagasse is a good raw material for papermaking!

The reeds that can't be seen at a glance by the river, plus bagasse, and bamboo, Cheng Hong can say that if Cheng Hong is given half a year, Cheng Hong can reduce the price of paper by ninety!

Not to mention anything else, it's serious to get the sugar out first!

Under the command of Cheng Hong, the sugarcane was pressed into barrels of sugarcane juice, and then the lime was put in, precipitated, and then put into the pot after filtering after precipitation.

The basic methods are almost the same, a large cauldron of steam steaming, even the air has a sweet and greasy smell, the two little girls stand in the distance and sniffle vigorously!

It's not that they are gluttonous, it's just that these things are made by Cheng Hong, so the sense of expectation is greater than eating.

Cheng Hong smiled and looked at the two little girls who wanted to see it there but were too hot. Seeing that the syrup in the pot was almost boiled, he hurriedly took a big spoon and began to scoop it into the tile that had been prepared next to him!

After scooping a batch, Cheng Hong instructed Cheng An to put the remaining sugarcane juice in a pot and boil, while he waited for the syrup in the tile to cool and solidify.

At this time, Cheng Hong picked up Erya and Li Lizhi to watch the syrup in the tile cool. The two of them stared at each other curiously, watching the bubbling syrup get cooler little by little.

Wu Erya asked first: "Isn't this thing just sugar?" Why not put it in a jar? ”

Cheng Hong replied with a smile: "There is another process!" When this process is down, it's the sugar I make! What does sugar look like now? It's black, it's red, it's not slippery! ”

After a while, the sugar had already cooled, and Cheng Hong touched it with his hand, okay, it's okay.

I saw Cheng Hong carrying a bucket of yellow muddy water and called Cheng An: "Look at it, I'll teach you once, and you will do all this work in the future!"

Cheng Hong pulled out the grass plug under the tile, the yellow muddy water slowly poured down, the black and red syrup was like a smoothie that was sucked away from the water, where it was drenched, it became white, and after slowly drenching, the layer of sugar on it turned snow-white and snow-white.

Cheng Hong pulled it twice with the bamboo stick next to him, the upper layer was the whitest, and the lower layer was slightly yellow, Cheng Hong explained: "Are you optimistic?" The top whitest is packed alone! It is counted as a first-class product, and the following is counted as a second-class product, and after it is loaded, it will be sent to the Lingnan Feng family for ten cans!

The rest is put in my room, and it is forbidden to eat Erya and Lizhi, lest they eat their teeth! ”

After Cheng Hong finished speaking, he saw that Erya and Li Lizhen rolled their eyes together, these two little ladies are just like this, if Cheng Hong does not allow it, they will definitely not touch it.

Cheng Hong took the crockpot on the side and filled the top white sugar, "Let's go, don't you think about the malic acid you picked a few days ago?" I'll make you canned apples! Sweet! ”

The two little girls followed Cheng Hong excitedly, and Cheng Hong also saw that the two little girls were not so delicious, but they liked to follow Cheng Hong's busy feeling!

And Cheng Hong has been too busy recently, and he has no time to play with the two of them, think about the two little girls, what a big determination they made to escape for Cheng Hong's design!

And Cheng Hong counts, if nothing happens, after the New Year, Cheng Hong will definitely send the two of them away before going to sea!

According to Cheng Hong's calculations, it is best to send it back during the Chinese New Year, so that the two people in the palace can return when they settle accounts after the autumn, and they will be lighter!

This makes Cheng Hong and Li Lizhen get along for so long, which can be regarded as an extrajudicial grace, and it is estimated that if Chang'an City finds out now, the royal face will be completely lost!

The eldest princess actually fled? Who do you say dare to pass it on? The five surnames and seven hopes will dare, if it is really leaked, it is not impossible to impeach this bullet in the imperial history.

Therefore, for the sake of his own safety and royal face, Cheng Hong still sent these two little girls back as soon as possible.

It's better to accompany them before sending them back, after all, if Cheng Hong goes to sea, anything can happen, not to mention that in this era, even when Cheng Hong lives, there are radars and satellite phones, and shipwrecks are also common!

Although Cheng Hong only went to the offshore sea, at most he would go to the Nanyang region, and he had to make any preparations. For the first time, it must be successful, so Cheng Hong must follow.

Besides, don't be afraid to hold back, wait until the Galen ship is built, and the sailors and star-pullers are trained, and they are ready to go to sea!

Of course, Cheng Hong may not necessarily go at that time! Just leave it to the following!

Cheng Hong hugged Wu Erya and Li Liqing, and Li Lizhi and Wu Erya hugged the sugar jar. From time to time, he picked out a little with his fingers, and then put it in his mouth, and their eyes narrowed into a crescent.

Seeing Cheng Hong glaring at him, the two of them picked a little at the same time and motioned for Cheng Hong to taste it, Cheng Hong shook his head, and the two of them put their fingers in their mouths.

Cheng Hong shook his head: "Don't eat it, I won't hug you two when I'm eating!"

The two of them stopped, and when they arrived at the city lord's mansion, Cheng Hong went straight to the kitchen, took out the sour apples picked that day, peeled them, dug up the seeds, and cut them in half......

The current apple can open Cheng Hong's eyes, this apple is not called an apple, it is called a pimple, and the size is about the same as an egg.

So although I didn't pick a lot of this thing, I had the most left! I heard that this tree was first spread in the Western Regions! Thrown in it and no one cared about it, but it turned out to be an apple forest now!

I happened to be bumped into by them, so I picked a lot. After Cheng Hong finished processing the apples, he added boiling water, put all the apples in the jar, and then added three spoons of sugar and put them in the pot to steam!

After steaming, I took out the prepared oil paper and leather rope, tied the mouth of the can, and made a total of 15 cans!

The rest of Cheng Hong boiled syrup and made a shredded apple, and the two little girls were very happy to eat! Cheng Hong watched with a smile on the side!

That's nice!
