Although they spent all their family savings and spent a few kilograms of food on their way home, the Yunjing family was not bored, but instead had smiles on their faces.
The feasibility of farmyard fertilizer has been confirmed, and his family has been operating it secretly. As long as there is no disaster this year, it is a certainty that the autumn harvest will increase grain production. Judging from last year's experimental experience, grain production increased by more than one-third. Even after paying taxes, their family doesn't have to worry about going hungry in the coming year.
A better life is beckoning to their family.
In Jiang Susu¡¯s arms, Yunjing held the ¡®candy¡¯ rewarded by the salesman, handed it to Jiang Susu¡¯s mouth and said, ¡°Mom, eat the candy.¡±
Although this candy is insignificant and even disgusting to Yunjing, it is undeniable that for Jiang Susu and others, it is definitely a coveted delicious treat.
There was nothing wrong with the candies. Yun Jing had already observed them. The salesman fulfilled his promise and gave some candies that looked like children. The children ate them on the spot, and there were no accidents until their noses were filled with snot.
"Mom won't eat it, Xiao Jing will eat it," Jiang Susu shook her head in refusal and touched his head lovingly. She was obviously very happy that her son was the first to think of giving candy to her.
Although she was rejected, the flash of desire in her eyes and the subtle move of licking her lips did not escape Yun Jing's eyes.
He stubbornly held up the candy and said, "Mom, eat it"
The picture of a loving mother and a filial son is very warm. Yunlin and Yunshan on the side look at each other with expressions full of happiness and contentment.
¡°Mom doesn¡¯t like this, little Jing, go ahead and eat it, it¡¯s delicious. If you don¡¯t believe me, try it and see if I¡¯m going to lie to you.¡± Jiang Susu continued to shake her head, tempting Yunjing to eat sweets.
Yunjing shook his head and said, "I don't want it. If mom doesn't want to eat it, I'll keep it for you."
His behavior surprised the whole family, but they didn¡¯t think about the fact that he knew how to be filial to his parents at such a young age. They just regarded it as a child having an inexplicable tantrum.
Jiang Susu thought for a moment and said, "Then let's go home and divide the candy into four portions, one for mom, one for grandpa and dad, and one for Xiaojing. Let's eat it together. Do you agree?"
Yun Jing tilted his head, making a serious thinking expression, then nodded heavily and said: "Okay"
The whole family was amused by his little adult appearance.
Who knows that Yunjing is sighing in his heart. This sweet confection, which is not even sugar, is only the size of a fingernail, but the whole family has to share it. Even such an opportunity may not come once a year.
Life is so harsh on the poor
After returning home, Jiang Susu really divided the candy into four parts, and each family member ate one part. It was so sweet that it was not only sweet in the mouth, but also sweet in the heart.
He didn¡¯t eat Yunjing¡¯s portion, he just put it in his mouth. Naturally, the adults didn¡¯t notice his move.
He really can¡¯t eat this thing. It looks unhygienic. What if something goes wrong after eating it? He doesn't have the resistance of an adult
The family had finished their meal, and everyone went to work in the fields in the afternoon. Yunjing was the only one left at home.
Sitting in his yard, Yunjing looked at the 'candy' in his little hand, with a happy smile on his face.
He thought of a way to make money. If everything goes well, not only will he be able to get a cow back to his family this year, but the life of the entire family may even undergo fundamental changes!
Sugar is the key to all this.
Salt, wine, these things that are of strategic significance to this era, he dare not touch, but sugar can, it is no longer restricted, and the private sector can sell it privately.
The small piece of sweet food in his hand, which could not even be called sugar, inspired Yun Jing.
Make sugar, make maltose!
¡° Flour granules with just a little sucrose added can be sold for a copper coin each. There is no reason why he can¡¯t make money by producing real sugar like maltose.
Thanks to the all-encompassing "shaking hands" in his previous life, Yunjing has seen a tutorial on making maltose, and it is not difficult to copy it.
The process is actually very simple. Germinate the wheat, then chop it, stir it with the steamed glutinous rice, and then leave it to ferment. During the fermentation process, microorganisms will degrade the sugar in the malt and the starch in the glutinous rice into sugar juice, and finally the fermented glutinous rice will be fermented. The obtained sugar juice is filtered and boiled to obtain pure maltose.
Because it is early spring, due to the temperature difference and the process of wheat germination, Yunjing estimates that it will take no more than twenty days to produce maltose.
??You have wheat and glutinous rice at home, it is completely feasible, the only thing you need to pay attention to is?, it's probably just a matter of his own safety. The production process requires a fire. At his age, although he has the mind of an adult, playing with fire is still a very dangerous thing and he must be careful.
"Two hundred grams of wheat, two pounds of glutinous rice, and in the end it is estimated that half a pound of maltose can be made. The deviation is not large. If you are a little extravagant, you can make a candy with a drop of maltose in flour the size of a fingernail. One candy can be sold for one Copper plates, and half a pound of maltose can make at least a thousand 'candies', that is, a thousand copper plates, ten taels of silver, hiss! This is definitely a huge profit!"
It¡¯s not that I don¡¯t know. When I calculated it, I was startled. When I thought about it, Yunjing was frightened to the point of numbness.
Sugar, a delicacy that can be regarded as an absolute luxury product in this era, has no worries about selling. Even if you don¡¯t sell diluted ¡®candy¡¯, you can sell pure maltose.
The poor in this world are really poor, but there is no shortage of rich people. Rich people will never be stingy with money to buy delicious food like candy.
Of course, Yunjing has not been dazzled by violence. If this thing is not used properly, it will probably cause disaster. After all, no one is innocent of the crime. If someone knows about the huge profits, will he still want to live a stable life?
It¡¯s always right to think of the worst in everything, but Yunjing doesn¡¯t believe in the security issues in this world.
Therefore, the secret recipe for making maltose must be kept absolutely confidential, and it cannot be produced on a large scale. Try to minimize the risk, and stop when necessary before you lose the ability to keep your wealth.
Yunjing doesn¡¯t want to put this family in danger just because of a little money.
This home is too fragile and cannot withstand any trouble.
Having thought of the worst-case scenario and rough solutions, Yunjing felt that the problem shouldn't be big as long as he wasn't too greedy.
But for now, his first priority is to get the maltose out before he can talk about anything else.
The method of making maltose is in my mind, and even the instructional video is vivid in my mind. The next step is the specific operation, but it has to be carried out behind the back of my family.
After the maltose is made, the parents have to sell it into money. Yunjing decides to explain this problem to his family at that time
Knowledge is wealth. In the information explosion society of the previous life, ordinary people probably received more information in a day than poor farmers in this world in a lifetime. At the right time, a little idea can change their life!
After maltose is produced, fruit candies of various flavors can be developed, such as candied haws
"Eh? When did my memory become so good? I can still remember the instructional video on how to make maltose. I can even recall other memories from past lives. Is it related to reincarnation? Tsk, if I had such a memory in my previous life , even if you just memorize written knowledge, you won¡¯t be that bad"
Yunjing didn¡¯t go into details about how his memory has become so good. It¡¯s always a good thing, right?
Next he started preparing to make maltose. The first step was to steal wheat from home (remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
