When she arrived at Minglan yard, Xu Wenlan didn't enter the house, but only asked the little girl in the courtyard if the things her second brother had brought.

Minglan widened her eyes and watched Xu Wenlan take things out of the wooden box as they were, but she was amused.

Liu Ya was even more anxious to ask: "Miss Xu, what are you doing?" How does it look like a pot? ”

"You just think it's a pot." Xu Wenlan smiled and didn't explain much.

It's a shame that her father is a blacksmith, so she has to say it, otherwise this marshmallow machine is really hard to make.

Marshmallow machine, it is not difficult to rest in modern times, and you can buy the simplest style for a few hundred yuan, but this thing is precise in the Qing Dynasty! Even if Bai Yingkui's craftsmanship is outstanding, it is not so easy to do it.

The pot is easy to do, and the pot and stove for burning sugar can be done together, but the centrifugal shaft can't be done, there is no motor, no electricity, and it can only be replaced by manual work.

When he did the experiment last time, he was so tired that even if the sugar was sweet, he didn't want to eat it twice: "Don't let me shake it again, if you want to be tired, you will be tired!" ”

"No, the eldest brother is a scholar, you are a general, who are you looking for?" Xu Wenlan's eyes widened, and she coaxed Bai Shengwu with a word, so that he was willing to come to work again.

But it's a pity that Guo Buluo's house is not so easy to enter, things are sent in, but Bai Shengwu, a half-grown man, can't get in.

Xu Wenlan's eyes rolled, and after looking at it for a long time, she called a mother-in-law who took care of the garden to help: "I'll let you turn you in a while, you can turn it, how strong you are, don't stop if I don't shout to stop!" ”

That woman didn't know how powerful she was, she nodded in response, and she didn't think there was anything difficult about this thing.

After putting the sugar, Xu Wenlan stared at the stove, and when the stove was almost burned and the sugar should melt, she called the mother-in-law to turn the shaft, took a bamboo chopstick, and waited for the sugar mist to spray out and immediately wrap around the sugar.

At this time, there was no such sugar production, Minglan looked at the sugar silk wrapped into a ball, it was really like Xu Wenlan said, like cotton, and immediately laughed, and when Xu Wenlan taught her to tear it with her hands and eat it, Minglan was embarrassed at first, and then took a small strip and put it in her mouth after a while.

"Ah, this is so delicious...... Minglan smiled and praised, her eyes narrowed into a crescent moon.

In fact, this marshmallow is a novelty, if you want to say that it is delicious, it may not be as delicious as the things that Minglan ate before.

Xu Wenlan smiled, nodded proudly, and shouted to the mother-in-law to turn around, and went around a few more marshmallows, not only Minglan ate it, but also Liu Ya and a few girls who got close, so she asked casually: "Why don't you send it to your young master Chengyu to eat?" ”

After saying that, Xu Wenlan turned her head to look at Minglan , Minglan still had a bright smile on her face, there seemed to be nothing unusual, but Xu Wenlan herself had a little awkward feeling.

To say that to get this marshmallow today, it is really Xu Wenlan's own selfishness. Guo Buluo's family has not been in charge for so many days, Xu Wenlan is worried that his family does not want to do the business of sugar at all, and sending marsamallows to Chengyu is to arouse his thoughts.

But in this way, she came to play with Minglan and the purpose of making marshmallows for Minglan was not pure, and she had the meaning of using Minglan very much.

Pursing her lips and looking at Minglan 's smile, Xu Wenlan suddenly said, "I still won't give it to him, let's eat it ourselves today......"

"Oh......" Minglan agreed, and didn't say anything.

Xu Wenlan thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Do you want to get it too?" ”

"Can I do too?" Minglan was surprised, took the bamboo chopsticks, and gently twisted them around under Xu Wenlan's instructions, and saw that the sugar silk was really wrapped around the bamboo chopsticks, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Ah, it's really made......"

The white marshmallow was like a cloud, and Minglan held up the marshmallow in her hand, looked at it again and again, and was reluctant to eat it.

Xu Wenlan laughed at her: "It's not delicious if you don't eat it for a while." ”

Minglan looked back at her, smiled, but held the marshmallow in front of her: "I'll make it for you this time." ”

Xu Wenlan laughed, put it in her mouth, and deliberately exaggerated: "It's very sweet!" Old delicious......"

Minglan also stretched out her hand and tore the piece, nodding solemnly: "It's really sweet......"

She looked at Xu Wenlan and smiled so hard that her eyes lit up: "I'm very happy......"

"Why don't you just make a candy ......" Xu Wenlan's voice paused, looked at Minglan and realized that what she said was not the case.

Smiling at her, Minglan said softly: "I'm really happy, I'm glad that you don't send candy to my brother." ”

Xu Wenlan's eyes flickered, and she suddenly realized that Minglan understood everything.

Maybe there are a lot of bad things hidden in the dark side that can't be in front of Minglan in front of her, but Minglan is the eldest lady of Guo Buluo's family, how can she not understand these things?

She wanted to use Minglan , Minglan knew about it a long time ago, but she didn't expose it.

As soon as she realized this, Xu Wenlan suddenly felt a little sorry for this little girl: "I ......"

Holding Xu Wenlan's hand with a smile, Minglan motioned to her not to continue, but to call Liu Ya: "Liu Ya, I'll make another one, you go and send it to my brother, just say that I made it myself, and I used the new sugar of Wen Lan's family." ”

Liu Ya didn't think of anything else, agreed, and happily watched her girl make marshmallows.

Xu Wenlan was guilty and happy: "Minglan will be a big puppet and be you when I go back!" ”

Minglan turned around and asked with a smile: "Is it the one you said before that is one person tall?" ”

"One person tall? You're really a lion's mouth......" pouted, Xu Wenlan still nodded in agreement.

Minglan was willing to accept her things, but she was not angry, Xu Wenlan also put aside other thoughts and messed around with Minglan and the two of them.

When Liu Ya came back and said that the eldest young master wanted to see her, Xu Wenlan almost forgot about wanting to find Chengyu.

The eldest young master is easy to see, but business is difficult to discuss, Xu Wenlan often feels that ancient people are really precocious, and Chengyu is only sixteen years old, but he is calm and scheming, and some people believe it when he says that he is thirty in modern times.

After some measurement, Xu Wenlan did not take too much advantage.

Originally, she only wanted to hand over the sales to Guo Buluo's family, and she accounted for the full amount of production, but Chengyu dispelled her thoughts with a word: "Is this sugar difficult to make?"

It is indeed not difficult to make, and her sugar is also made using the ancient method, which neither has the technology beyond this era, nor does she completely control the raw materials into her own hands.

Now she is only taking a head start, and when the sugar beet is produced in large quantities, the Guo Buluo family can also buy their own sugar, just like the honeycomb coal before.

Fortunately, Chengyu is much kinder than Boss Huang, and he didn't think about leaving Xu Wenlan to do this business on his own.

In the end, the two of them are divided fifty-fifty, but Xu Wenlan does not need to take out the capital, even if it is a modern technology share.

However, Guo Buluo's family wanted to invest in the construction of a sugar factory, and when the time came, the purchase of sugar beets in mass production was also paid by Guo Buluo's family first.

And Xu Wenlan also took over the business for Bai Yingkui, the marshmallow machine can only be customized from his blacksmith shop, no matter how you look at it, it is not a loss, although the dividend is much less than she thought, but the business is finally done.

Out of Chengyu's study, Xu Wenlan touched the paperwork in her sleeve pocket, exhaled, and smiled.
