In Kazkaz's voice, beetroots, like large radish, were pressed by hired workers on the wavy sawtooth steel radish ballast of Rizhao's specialty, and one by one the beetroots quickly turned into shredded vegetables, and after the silk was finished, the workers put these shredded vegetables into the sugar stone trough specially used for soaking, and the big stones on the teeth were soaked in hot water, and the sugar in the beetroot was soaked into the sugar solution like making tea.

The shredded beets that have no sugar don't need to be thrown away, they are stuffed and picked up and turned around, and they are sent to the pig farm in the east of the town, where they are fed to the pigs with wheat bran, and the pigs eat are fragrant, and the pig manure pulled out is fermented and the excrement discharged from the city is sent to the field again, which is used as fertilizer to nourish the crops, grow into food again, and then enter the population.

Out of awe of this natural cycle, Wang Hou in Qingdao City two thousand years ago, whether the citizens were rich or poor, when they met and greeted, they would definitely ask each other cordially. To show that we do not forget the source of food!

After the waste vegetables are processed, the honey soaked at the other end has to go through multiple procedures, such as adding lime milk to clean it first, reacting with the acid in the sugar solution to remove the gum, and then putting it into a large pot for cooking and concentration, heating and crystallization in the sugar tank, and finally throwing off the honey, and making a handful of yellow sugar.

This toss, a stone of beets can barely make a bucket of sugar, but this bucket of sugar, according to the market price at that time is enough to sell five or six stone of grain, and sugar is not worried, this era of sweetness is absolutely a luxury, sold to the south to Xuzhou, Wu County, Jingzhou, to the west to the Central Plains Guanzhong, to the north to Jizhou Youzhou, no matter where the local tyrants and inferior gentry are rushing to want.

Sugar beet yield is still higher than grain, do not want Wang Hou to close to so fill the fertilizer to grow, this era of an acre of land can hit three stones is already considered a high yield, but beets, even if it is a poor field near the sea, thin fertilizer slightly keep up, play a five or six stone beet is not a problem, now developed 120,000 acres of sugar beet field, a bucket is a box, in mid-July, Qingdao million sugar beet field production of sugar is more than 200,000 boxes, several sugar mills are Wang Hou funded founded, only one sugar mill belongs to the Tian family.

The exiled local tyrant who exchanged beets for grain was still laughing at Wang Hou for doing a loss-making business, exchanging the worthless "big radish" for Wang Zhoumu's precious grain, and the one who watched the boatloads of traders coming and going from north to south desperately stuffed grain, cloth, paint and other valuable commodities into Wang Hou's warehouse like they didn't want money, and the guys were dumbfounded.

Even not only to make money from sugar, but also to make money from the waste honey left over from sugar extraction, Wang Hou took it to make wine, and the famous high-level wine rum in later generations was brewed from waste molasses, and when it was brewed in winter, it would be at least tens of thousands of stone of wine silver!

With the prosperity of the sugar industry, there is also the shipbuilding industry in Qingdao, which Wang Hou originally planned to revitalize!

Think of the sunny flat bay, Qingdao this crescent moon like the bay haven is simply a natural shipbuilding treasure, remember that in later generations here is one of the centers of the entire northern shipbuilding industry, build a 10,000-ton giant ship with play, Qingdao Bay north of several thousand meters of tidal flats, all by Wang Hou approved to the shipyard.

And not only the territory, but also the huge inflow of funds.

Recently, the most widely circulated story in the port area is the Golden Valley of the Wa Kingdom, the story is divided into several versions, but the general meaning is that there is a golden valley on the big island of the East that goes out to sea for thousands of miles, and the valley is slightly peeled off the floating soil, and the inner layer is full of golden ore, with a gold content of more than fifty percent, where, the Gu Wa tribe forged a large number of gold vessels, and the gold of the golden carriage built by Wang Zhoumu this time is the Evil Horse Taiguo from the Golden Valley.

Another important point is that Wang Hou has not yet found where the Golden Valley is!

The pearl is dazzling, and the gold is moving! Although the land is still the largest source of income for the wealthy family, but after Wang Hou's tossing, the income of the grange has dropped by half, Wang Zhoumu is also a scoundrel, and these big families signed a grain expropriation agreement, every autumn harvest, the big family has to be a little lower than the market price, sell him nearly half of the harvest of grain, so that the grain market pricing power is gone, many unwilling clans began to look for new sources of wealth.

With this story as the foundation, who doesn't look at the interests of the Red Sea?

After a "difficult" compromise again and again, Qingzhou Shipyard got an order for 57 galleons in a quarter, a large number of fine Taishan wood arrived in Qingzhou from the west, and more than 8,000 homeless people were bare-chested with big saw blades buzzing planks, which virtually stimulated the development of Taishan's economy, and created a large number of jobs by the way, which was simply a five-pronged win!

The abundance of sugar, the first to benefit, is Wang Hou's mouth.

In the backyard of the state pastor's mansion, a big steamer was steaming, next to the stove, the white forehead was hot and full of fragrant sweat, Lu Ji was still virtuous with a knife to cut the freshly steamed black pork, and then with the soy sauce from the south of the Yangtze River, the rice wine of Jimo, the local sugar, the green onions, ginger and garlic, taro and yam and so on, everything was broken into the pot, and then covered the casserole and simmered.

Half an hour later, when Wang Hou's saliva was about to flow out, with Taiyu, Lu Ji took out a large casserole with great difficulty but extra joy, and as soon as he opened the lid, the overwhelming fragrance in the heat came to his face viciously.

The high-quality black pig braised pork is served with rice from the south of the Yangtze River, even if there are no other side dishes, it is no problem to make three bowls by one person, this aroma seduces, Zhang Liao, who came to rub the rice, almost couldn't help but grab it with chopsticks, but before it was sent to his mouth, he remembered the etiquette again, and sent it to Wang Hou's bowl with a sad face.

"Governor Mu, you ......, eat meat......"

It's really called beast chess, one level is pressed one level, if you annoy Jia Xu, a careful-eyed old yin ghost, he is a real pig Bajie and a rake who doesn't serve monkeys! The braised pork was not hot on his rice, and Wang Hou picked it up sadly and sent it to Jia Xu's bowl.

"Mr. Wenhe, eat meat!"

"Governor, don't think you can buy ...... with this meat, Gollum......"

Swallowing his saliva heavily, Jia Xu continued to correct without blushing and heartbeat: "Like Zhou Mu, who spends gold and silver indiscriminately, he is extravagant!" Jia still sees him once! ”

"Mr. Wenhe has taught a great lesson! Wang Hou has been taught! Come, drink! ”

In the gurgling sound, the best rice wine was poured into the cup again, a mouthful of crispy braised pork belly, and then a sip of wine, that small day, the gods are incomparable! Seeing that this Jia poisoner was eating beautifully, Wang Hou finally shook his chopsticks fiercely: "Let's eat!" ”

In an instant, seven or eight pairs of chopsticks stretched out together, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Zang Hong, Wang Congge, and the food is currently shining, and all the cheeks are thrown up, even Zhuge Ying can't take care of her eldest lady image, and she keeps pulling the rice bowl.

But looking at this scene, Tai Yu was about to cry when he swallowed his saliva, his little hands were twisted together, and he looked at the side with big eyes aggrievedly.

"Do I have to ask you? Bring your own stool! ”。

Although I still can't understand Wang Hou's words, but the bowl of white rice that Gollum turned over can understand more than anything, and in an instant, Wang Hou's image has changed from a demon to an angel in this girl's heart, and the girl's heart is bursting, and this girl is also happily picking up chopsticks!

The charm of sugar is unmistakable!
