The poor people in this era probably all know how precious sugar is, and mastering the method of making sugar is no less than holding a gold mine!
Although Yunjing¡¯s family will not make a fortune by making maltose for fear of causing trouble, they still need to master the production method before talking about anything else.
So much so that the family could not even take care of the work in the fields for the time being. They closed the door and asked over and over again the process of making Yunjing maltose.
Youdao is the Three Stooges who are like Zhuge Liang. After one afternoon, they were able to roughly restore the method of making maltose based on Yun Jing¡¯s confusing description.
Originally, making maltose was not difficult and could be explained clearly in a few sentences. However, in order to suit his age group, Yunjing deliberately spoke confusingly and did not convey the meaning. He revealed bit by bit and let them figure it out on their own. In short, he wanted to let them know how to make maltose. They thought it was caused by their 'blind Ji'er' messing around.
Fortunately, the family was very patient. They asked little by little, confirmed little by little, and repeatedly asked, and finally pieced together the details little by little, and then roughly restored the method of making maltose.
There is nothing you can do if you are impatient. Yunjing is only two years old, so he can¡¯t ¡®extort a confession through torture¡¯, right?
Of course, just by asking Yun Jing, they couldn't figure out how maltose was made so quickly, but the result was obtained after repeated confirmations.
For example, to what extent does wheat need to germinate? In order to understand this, Yun Lin also went to the vegetable garden to dig out the filter residue buried by Yun Jing and observed it repeatedly.
Although the stuff was mixed with glutinous rice and fermented for two days, it was not rotten. Yunlin, who has many years of farming experience, quickly figured out the growth level of the malt based on the residue.
Among them, Jiang Susu also helped. She has been doing housework for many years. Based on experience, she has judged that the fermentation time of the residue is about two days. Don¡¯t think it is incredible. The family is so poor that they would like to break a penny in half and spend it. Therefore, when it comes to food, Jiang Susu The attention to detail is quite spot on.
With the residue for comparison and Yunjing¡¯s confusing description, the family finally concluded after repeated discussions that Yunjing started tinkering with maltose more than half a month ago, and a sieve was lost at home that day
The wheat is germinated for half a month, and then mixed with cooked rice for two days to ferment. Finally, maltose is boiled out from the fermented soup.
Look, how simple it is. The process is described in less than three sentences. However, the family confirmed it repeatedly throughout the afternoon.
¡°After understanding that maltose only requires a little wheat and glutinous rice to make maltose, the whole family was frightened when they thought of the huge profits. It took them a long time to react, and everyone¡¯s scalp was numb
Now that the production process is clear, the next step is the specific operations.
This is not urgent, and it cannot be urgent.
The day passed by without realizing it.
In the evening, when the lights were lit at home, Yunshan looked at the ready-made maltose in the jar, swallowed his saliva and asked Yunlin: "Dad, what should I do with these candies?"
"Put it away. I will go to the town to sell it in a short time. Well, then I will say it is honey. No matter whether others believe it or not, it is honey if we bite it to death!" Yunlin said, looking at the jar.
After hearing this, Yunjing thought that he had guessed correctly. Grandpa would sell maltose as honey. It was not difficult to guess. After all, the brewed maltose did not look much different from honey. It was just a little different.
"Oh" Yunshan licked his lips and forced himself not to look at the maltose. He thought that it was sold as honey. It was expensive, and one bite would be a waste of money.
However, Yunlin said with a smile: "Look at you like that, you are still as greedy as when you were a child. In a blink of an eye, you are so old, you have children, and I am old. Eat, eat, I know this stuff How to do it, there will be more in the future, and this one is not missing.¡±
"Really?" Yunshan said in surprise.
Yunlin simply didn¡¯t answer and went directly to get the bowl.
In fact, he also wanted to eat it. The candy that the family shared that day was gone before he could even taste it
The family tasted sweetness again.
Although they knew how to make maltose and there would be endless amounts of sugar to eat in the future, the family was still reluctant to eat more, so each person only drank a bowl of sugar water.
This is not the candy you eat, it¡¯s the money you eat, it¡¯s the life you eat!
That night, no one in the family had a good sleep except Yunjing. Excited, scared, huge profits, making money, confused, and a better tomorrow filled their minds with all kinds of complicated emotions. It was surprising that they could sleep well.
The next morning, the whole family had thick dark circles under their eyes
The days still have to go on, even though I know that maltose canIt costs a lot of money, but for a family whose ancestors have been farmers for generations, farming makes people feel more at ease.
So this morning, they got some wheat out, started cultivating malt under Yunjing's guidance, and then went to work in the fields with hoes, as if nothing happened, but only they themselves I know how uneasy I feel inside.
It is worth mentioning that from that day on, Yunjing had no chance to be alone. It was really because his family was frightened by him, so they only left him alone at home for a long time before he started to play with fire. Although he was 'muddleheaded' Making maltose, but it can't dispel the family's concern for his safety.
No matter how much money they have, they don¡¯t want any accident to happen to Yunjing.
When he went to the fields with his family, Yunjing was still young and couldn't help, so he could only play on the side.
But peeing and playing in the mud?
It¡¯s too boring, so most of the cloud scenes are observing the mountains, rivers, heaven and earth, a grass, a flower, enjoying the peace and carefreeness unique to this age
Many times he fell into silence unconsciously while watching. To others, he seemed to be in a daze. In fact, he was in a state of extreme relaxation in mood and spirit. He seemed drunk but not drunk, and seemed awake but not awake. He felt that his whole person was integrated into it. In the middle of heaven and earth, I feel extremely relaxed and comfortable, and time passes very quickly.
In that state, the white clouds in the sky seemed to be within reach.
It was also in that state that one day he was clearly right under the nose of his family, but their family members seemed to have not seen him, searching and shouting everywhere. If he hadn't taken the initiative to speak out, they wouldn't have discovered it!
At that time, Yunjing realized that there seemed to be something wrong with his state, and he couldn't tell what was wrong specifically
Time passed so quietly, and more than half a month later, under the forced ¡®guidance¡¯ of his family, his family made maltose again after Yunjing.
The quality of the finished product is a bit worse than what Yunjing made last time, but it is undeniable that the production was successful. With this experience, we will slowly summarize it in the future and it will definitely get better and better.
When the maltose was made in the hands of his family members, Yunjing looked at the excited smiles on their faces, felt his joy from the heart, and experienced their longing for a better future. His heart felt particularly calm.
"If you can make your family happy, make them feel happy, and make them full of good hope for the future, what does it mean to get beaten up by yourself?" Yun Jing thought in his heart.
The family was not dazzled by the success of making maltose. After the joy, Yunlin, the head of the family, repeatedly warned them not to spread the word and to make as little maltose as possible in the future to avoid disaster.
??As long as you have enough money, it will be a disaster if you have too much!
"My family understands the truth and will naturally not take that risk. This family is too weak and cannot withstand the hardships."
They are uneducated and have no knowledge, so naturally they don¡¯t have so much ambition and adventurous spirit. Peace is a blessing, plainness is also a blessing, and they are contented and happy. This is probably the true portrayal of Yunjing¡¯s family
One day, when the spring plowing was a little less busy, Yunlin and his son got up early in the morning and prepared about two or three kilograms of maltose made at home to sell in the town.
At that time, Yunjing also got up. His grandfather Yunlin looked at him and thought for a while and said, "Xiaojing hasn't been to the town yet. How about we take him to see him?"
