At this time, when Xie Rumo was busy establishing contacts and growing influence among the Ayi people; Their letters of safety also arrived at the National Medical Office and the Dingguo Mansion.

"Master, now you should rest assured, I said that the young master Ji people have their own natural appearance, and they will be able to turn evil into good fortune, isn't this fulfillment?" As soon as Xie Li received the letter, he put down everything in his hand and came to find Old Man Xie.

Old Man Xie smiled, "Don't worry, I will take care of myself." ”

He then had another layer of worry, "But Lou Yueguo is not a Great Zhou after all, they are trapped there, and they still need to send some more people to respond." ”

"Don't worry, I'll let people arrange all this. Now the most important thing for you is to take good care of your body, otherwise when the young master returns and sees you still sick in bed, how much self-blame and sadness she will have. ”

Old Man Xie snorted, and then took the initiative to ask about the medicine he wanted to drink today.

Ayi

The sugar factory jointly owned by Xie Rumo, Wang's second sister-in-law, and the chief officially started and began to boil brown sugar. In fact, sugarcane can also be made into white sugar and rock sugar, that is, on the basis of making brown sugar, several more processes are added to remove impurities and decolorization. That's it, Xie Rumo shook his head, do what is in front of him, don't think about anything else for the time being, think too much and have a headache.

I don't know how Wang's second sister-in-law and Han San talked about it, in short, if they want to follow the sugar production, then they have to hand over 20% of the profits on their side as the use fee for the method of boiling sugar. The money will be deposited into the sugar factory, and it will be settled when the dividends are calculated.

Because Xie Rumo uses the method of boiling sugar, which is regarded as a technology shareholding, then this sugar-boiling technology belongs to the three partners who jointly own and share it, and the value it generates naturally belongs to everyone.

The fire in the pot had been burning for almost three hours, and the stove was burning a mixture of bagasse and some firewood, which was very good for controlling the fire. To get back to the point, the sugar in the pot has turned into sugar gum after slow boiling and constant stirring.

Then two or three large men carefully carried the pot and poured it into a simple square mold, waiting for it to cool.

No one left, and a group of about a dozen people were waiting for the results.

I don't know who built two fires next to it, and everyone roasted around them, and from time to time they threw sweet potatoes and peanuts into them.

The weather was cold, and the sugar cooled for a short time, and after touching it for about an hour, Wang's second sister-in-law carefully lifted the white curtain covering her head.

She looked at the plate of brown sugar and said excitedly, "It's done!" ”

As the candy was pried out as it solidified, she took the knife from her husband and cut it into small pieces.

She took the lead in handing the sugar to Xie Rumo, "Sister of the Wang family, taste it, is this the taste?" ”

Xie Rumo took a piece and ate it, the freshly baked brown sugar had a special flavor of caramel, full of aroma, sweet but not greasy.

After she took it, the second sister-in-law walked around with a small dustpan, and everyone present tasted the taste of new brown sugar.

"Is this brown sugar? It's delicious. ”

"I can't imagine that the sugar from the sugar cane water is so sweet."

Men, good meat and good wine, and that's the case with sweets, although they think brown sugar tastes good, but they think women's words are exaggerated.

It's a woman, who really praises brown sugar, and after all, there is no woman who doesn't like sweets.

Xie Rumo thought about it, walked to the second sister-in-law of Wang, and whispered.

After searching the crowd, the second sister-in-law walked to a woman, muttered a few words to her, her face turned red, she glanced at Xie Rumo embarrassedly, and then followed the second sister-in-law Wang's house with a twist.

Before the second sister-in-law left, she took away some sugar cubes.

After a while, the second sister-in-law of Wang appeared happily, and she walked directly to Xie Rumo, "What you said is really true, this brown sugar has a miraculous effect on the waist and abdomen discomfort when Kwai Shui comes." I did as you said, and Sister-in-law Ah Hua drank a cup of ginger soup and brown sugar water, and it immediately stopped hurting. ”

Xie Rumo listened and smiled, because of the processing technology, brown sugar retains a lot of nutrients, which can replenish blood and invigorate blood, clear stasis and discharge lochia, which is a very good tonic for women.

She had a friend before, and she also had discomfort in her stomach and abdomen as soon as she had a period, so she persuaded her to buy some brown sugar and boil some ginger soup to drink. She stopped and said that she had tried, but it was of little use. Later, she learned that she had always bought brown sugar in the supermarket, and most of the brown sugar in the supermarket was industrial brown sugar. After that, she asked a friend to buy some brown sugar that was boiled in the most primitive way for her. After her friend ate it once, it was really relieved a lot. Since then, the brown sugar made by the ancient method has become a must-have item during her period.

Xie Rumo told Wang Er's sister-in-law that brown sugar is also very suitable for pregnant women, and it has the effect of regulating the body and draining lochia, etc., and her eyes lit up when she heard it.

Wang's second sister-in-law felt that this brown sugar would never be unsellable, but unfortunately Han Laosan was too fine, and would rather give up 20% of the profits to participate in this business.

"Brown sugar is so useful, isn't the price of thirty-eight wen a pound too low?"

Xie Rumo looked at her, when she said that the price was 38 Wen, who said that the price was too high.

"Didn't I know at the time that this sugarcane was so delicious after it was turned into sugar, and how good it was?" Wang's second sister-in-law first sneered, and then said confidently, she thought it was high at the time, and the pork was only fifteen wen a catty, and the brown sugar without a shadow was more expensive than two catties of pork, could she not worry about not being able to sell it?

Xie Rumo calculated in her heart that brown sugar sells for 38 Wen, and this batch of sugar is conservatively estimated to be 30,000 catties, that is to say, after they sell them all, they can have a total income of 1,000 and 40 taels.

Sugarcane, they collected it for five cents and ten catties, and 300,000 catties of sugarcane is one hundred and fifty taels. One hundred and fifty taels, at the current price, is equivalent to 150,000 yuan in the future, and it is used to carry out this project, which is already a very large investment for the small tribe of the Ayi people.

Don't think that five cents and ten catties are cheap, in her hometown, when the price did not rise, the black sweet cane was only two cents, two cents and five pounds, and the tiger skin sugarcane was cheaper than the black sweet cane, because although it was sweet, it was difficult to bite.

Of course, this is the Great Zhou, the price of goods naturally cannot be compared, plus the price of grain in ancient times has always been high, five cents and ten catties are also reasonable, but in general it is still high, and the slightly higher part can be regarded as a kind of compensation for the Ayi people.

Forget that there is also labor, which is also a big expense.

For example, the sugar boiler is 30 wen a day, limited to men, the fire worker is the cheapest, 15 wen a day, and the washing and pressing worker is 20 wen a day.

Today is just a small test, tomorrow will be the official start, a total of fifteen sugar boilers, with fire workers, washing workers and presses more. A total of 60 people were invited. The day's expenses are about two taels of silver. A pot can only burn two pots of brown sugar a day, and the output is about 150 catties. The output of fifteen pots a day is about two thousand two hundred and fifty catties.

This batch of work will be busy for half a month, and the total investment will be about two hundred taels of silver. The profit is about 800 taels.
