Mia ate a few slices and stopped, because although it was sweet, it was really hard, and her bite made her teeth sore. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"It's delicious, it's good, but it's a bit more troublesome to eat. ”

"It will be much better when it is refined into sugar. ”

Honey is definitely a luxury for people in this world. Despite being born into the royal family, a thin layer of honey is smeared on toast every day for breakfast, but that's about it.

It's not that honey is expensive and can't afford it, but that the production of honey is too small, and people in the ordinary class regard it as a grand hospitality, more precious than tender beef.

And when Renault said sugar, he obviously didn't mean honey.

Mia had also drunk coconut juice from the south to the royal capital, and she had the impression that she had drunk beet juice with this taste, but compared to honey, their sweetness could be ignored.

At this time, Renaud said: "Although eating too much cane sugar is easy to gain weight, it is very good for a woman's body." ”

When Mia heard this, the hand that reached out to take the sugar cane immediately retracted again.

Obesity is a woman's natural enemy, even if she is only a teenage girl, because of her privileged life, she looks a little plump compared to other girls.

It's just that the second half of Renault's sentence seems to be an attraction, which makes her feel a little conflicted.

Finally resisting the urge to eat another slice, Mia asked, "What does cane sugar look like?"

"Caramel-colored. After saying that, Renault himself was stunned, and then laughed. Now that the sugar has not been boiled, there is naturally no so-called caramel color, "You'll probably know tomorrow." ”

Early the next morning, Reynolds gathered hundreds of guards to begin harvesting the sugar cane, while some were building stoves out of earth and stones, and setting up a dozen huge double-layer pots.

The double-layer pot made by Renault himself is actually a large and a small iron pot overlapped together, and an iron sheet is used to support a gap of a few centimeters between the two pots. When the sugar is boiled, the sugar cane juice is in a small pot with water in the gaps, so that the temperature of the small pot will always be kept at 100 degrees.

The advantage of this method is that the sugar will not burn, which is undoubtedly the best choice for novices who do not have any experience in boiling sugar. However, because the syrup temperature is low, the color will be very light and the boiling time will be long.

Once the cane has been harvested, the leaves and unsweetened tips are removed, presumably cleaned, and placed in a rudimentary juice press.

The so-called juice press is actually two large iron drums, mounted on a large iron frame, through which the sugar cane passes through a very small gap between the drums, and the juice is pressed out and flows into the iron frame.

Soon the first pot of sugar cane juice was filled, and after the fire was burned, thick foam floated on the surface of the water. Little by little, Reynolds had the foam removed, leaving only the juice that was gradually becoming viscous, and then a small amount of lime was added.

Renault didn't know much about the purpose of this process, he only saw it from a thousand-degree search, presumably to neutralize the acidity of the syrup.

Almost until the afternoon, a whole pot of juice is only left in the end, the juice is already as viscous as maltose, stick some with chopsticks and put it in the water, if it becomes crunchy after cooling, it means that the sugar is cooked.

At this time, the sucrose has a translucent yellowish color, which is very different from the brown sugar in Renault's memory.

It's probably a process problem, Renault doesn't care about these, anyway, as long as you can eat it, this kind of color is estimated to be more loved by people in this world.

The boiled sugar juice is packed into square molds, and one piece is about a catty. Wait for it to cool down naturally, and then put it on the bag, and then you can sell it.

"That's what you mean to be fun?" Mia waited for most of the day in the pot, and she couldn't help but be a little disappointed that she was waiting for this kind of result.

Who knew that Renault smiled and said, "No, this is it." ”

I saw him grab a sugar ball that was about to cool down with his hand, and then began to pull like a ramen chef, which was obviously a pale yellow sugar ball, but after his magic trick, it slowly turned white.

Mia's eyes lit up at the sight, she had never seen such a magical thing, but thinking about the slimy feeling, she quickly dismissed her plans to try it.

After pulling for a long time, the sugar cubes have become snow-white all over, and the temperature has also dropped. Renault cut it into small slices and put it on a plate, and when it was completely cool, he smiled and said to her, "Eat, it's delicious." ”

Mia tried to eat a slice and found that it was not as hard as she had imagined. After a closer look, I found that this sugar flake was actually full of tiny bubbles, dense, no wonder it was so crispy.

As if attracted by the sweet smell of sugar, Yuki's figure suddenly appeared at the table.

"Delicious. ”

After saying that, she looked at Mia, then at Renault, and seeing that no one of them continued, she took the whole plate.

"Eating too much sugar is not good for your teeth. ”

Before Renault's words fell, Yushi had already disappeared in place, and before leaving, he had not forgotten to put a gold coin on the table.

"Kids, they all like to eat sugar. ”

Renault hired some workers and taught them how to make candy.

There are so many types and quantities of candy that peanut candy is the easiest to make.

The peanuts in Tuke City are almost ripe, and with the milk of the Western Prairies, it is definitely not a problem to make sweet and fragrant peanut candy.

After a series of experiments and training, the first factory in Hammer City was officially established, which is currently mainly producing peanut candy. When the hawthorn matures in the fall, Renault is ready to launch series such as kraft candy.

A whole boatload of candy was transported to the royal capital before the arrival of autumn, presumably in this harvest season, this boatload of candy will make all classes of the royal capital feel their sweetness.

The construction of Hammer City is also nearing completion, and most of the surrounding residential areas have been completed, leaving only various large supporting buildings in the central area.

City halls, theaters, shopping malls...... These buildings are not numerous in number, but they occupy an extremely large area, and they are all four-story buildings, which can be quite cumbersome to build.

In the most central location, Renault also deliberately left a large area, which was originally intended to build a central park, but now it seems that there is no need for this, and the entire Hammer City is already a scenic area.

That night, Renault was thinking about what the land was used for, when a slender figure knocked softly on his door.

It was Mira.

When Renault successfully defeated the Black Sheep family, she had the urge to "cooperate" with Renault, and now that the summer was almost over and the construction of Hammer City was nearing completion, she thought that now was the best time.

"I will tell you all I know, and I can assist you, but you must promise that you will defeat the aliens in the future and help my people reclaim their territory. ”

As she spoke, Mira took out a thick book, which was her sincerity.

Renault glanced at the paper.

"Creation and cultivation of demons"!

There are still such strange books in this world! (To be continued.) )
