Chapter 155: Taste
The captain is an old life style, slightly sideways and glanced at the drawings by Xia Li's hand, and immediately waved his hand and said, "It's just an ordinary barrel."
It doesn't matter if it's bigger, there are people in our team who can make buckets, and I'll have someone make it for you right away.
How many do you want here? ”
Xia Li: "One up, let's take two first." ”
She pointed to the mouth of the bucket, "There needs a lid on it, preferably with a card slot, so that the syrup can be sprayed out without mechanical movement......
Is there anyone in the brigade who can strike iron? If someone knows how to strike iron, give me a few knives, and if no one knows how to strike iron, give me a few large pieces of metal. ”
Xia Li said his request, and the captain listened carefully, and the concentration was more serious than when he was the captain and went to the commune for the first time.
The team members knew that the captain and Xia Zhiqing were discussing serious matters, and they didn't dare to make a sound at all, and they couldn't wait to hold their breath the whole time, for fear of affecting them.
These are the two people who can feed and clothe their first team in the South Island in the future.
To put it mildly, in this era of hunger, even the Queen Mother couldn't give them food, and Xia Zhiqing, who couldn't teach them to make brown sugar, had a high status in their hearts!
Xia Li didn't pay much attention to the burning eyes of the team members looking at her one by one, and after explaining all this, she went back to make her motor.
The engine can actually drive the juicer, but now she even has a generator and a battery that can be replaced, so it is obviously more convenient to use the motor.
At least you don't have to keep a brazier next to it to heat up, and it's easier to turn it on and off.
Just as Xia Li was concentrating on assembling his small motor, a surprise shout suddenly came from outside the door.
"It's done! It's done! You can really make sugar! Same as what I was prescribed by the doctor!!
Xia Zhiqing is so powerful, he can do anything! ”
"Oh my God, great, will every family be able to boil brown sugar in the future!?
Then how many times will we have to multiply the money we get at the end of each year in the future! ”
"Alas, I didn't expect your brigade to really get brown sugar, I'm afraid it won't belong to your production team this year!"
……
There was a lot of chatter outside, and the captain roared, "Don't make any noise!" Xiao Xia is getting a machine in the house, don't disturb her! ”
Hearing the captain shouting, "Xiao Xia is getting a machine in the house", some people from the other teams asked who Xiao Xia was.
Those people's voices were very low, and they couldn't be heard in the room under normal circumstances, but Xia Li's ears were too good.
The whispers of those people in her ears turned into a small whisper of "Qu Qu~".
Xia Li: ......
It's better to speak loudly, and whispering like this always makes her want to listen twice with her ears on her ears to see what these people are talking about.
Unable to concentrate at all, Xia Li simply put down the work in his hand and got up and walked out.
As soon as Xia Li came out, the people in the courtyard immediately gathered around.
He and his sister-in-law stood in front with a large plate of cut brown sugar cubes in their hands, holding up their hands as if offering to their ancestors, and raised the brown sugar in their hands to Xia Li, their faces were a little red with excitement.
"Xia Zhiqing, take a look! Our brigade really got brown sugar!!
Come and try it! ”
Xia Li was not surprised that he could boil out brown sugar.
It's not difficult to make sugar, and you can't turn sugarcane into sugar, just because you don't know how to do it.
Knowing the method and then boiling brown sugar is a fool-type practice.
A group of people stared at Xia Li with burning eyes, as if they were waiting for her to test.
Xia Li reached out and took a piece of brown sugar the size of a fingernail and put it in his mouth, chewing it slightly.
It is not much different from the brown sugar of later generations, and it is a bit sluggish.
But it is more fragrant than the brown sugar that was cut into pieces and sold in later generations, probably because it was just made.
Nodding slightly, "Yes, it worked." ”
"Great!!"
The members of the team screamed happily, as happy as the New Year.
Some people and the people next to them clasped hands together excitedly and jumped, and some even cried on the spot.
"Great, great! We can also sell sugar with the commune in the future! You might not be hungry this year! ”
The captain's eyes were red, he held Xia Li's arm excitedly, and his voice trembled, "Comrade Xia, thank you for coming to the first team in the South Island, you are the best educated youth in the world!"
I thank you for the whole brigade! ”
Regardless of why Xia Li wanted to help the brigade build a factory, it is a fact that people taught them the craft of sugar making to the brigade, which can increase the income of the brigade members.
Even if he produces more in a year, in the end, he may not be able to leave a few dollars in the pockets of the team members, and it will be difficult to even eat enough, let alone compare with the income from sugar.
Xia Li is the hero of their entire brigade!
