Savage Fortune Little Landlord

Chapter 200 Make persistent efforts
"Googling..."

The strong burnt bitter aroma rose with the orange mist, and a large spoonful of water evaporated in an instant.

In a hurry, Xia Weiwei scooped up water one after another.

"Gudu Gudu...Zizi lala..."

The temperature in the cauldron finally dropped, and the mist gradually disappeared. When there was no bubble, Xia Weiwei dropped the spoon and looked around for an empty large bucket. call.

"Uncle Aniu, hurry up and help me pour out the water in the bucket."

A Niu focused his attention on the sugar in the cauldron, Xia Weiwei heard him calling him, but it was just overheard.

Xia Weiwei, who came over with a big basin, wanted to jump: "Uncle Aniu!"

"If you don't pour the water, the sugar will be boiled in vain!"

"Ah? Oh, oh!" A Niu belatedly ran towards Xia Weiwei.

The clear water soaked in sugar cubes was set aside, and the sugar cubes at the bottom of the bucket were completely exposed. Without saying a word, Xia Weiwei broke off a small corner and sent it into the mouth.

'Huh~'

Somewhat unexpectedly, Xia Weiwei broke off another small piece.

Tasting it again, the candy in the mouth still has the taste of cotton cotton rustle, with a slightly acidic sweetness.

This sugar is too similar to the brown sugar boiled by Gan.

Forbidding herself to think indiscriminately, Xia Weiwei picked up some candies and handed them to A Niu and the others: "Try it quickly."

All three of them were affected by Xia Weiwei's slightly uncertain eyes when he tasted it, and they were all a little worried. Xia Weiwei handed over the candy, and the three of them put it into the mouth without thinking.

"Oh~ so sweet~~"

A Niu exaggerated until his eyes widened: "This, this, this is too sweet and delicious."

A piece of candy was swallowed by him in less than five seconds. He bit his lips and stared at the candy that Xia slightly opened with piercing eyes.

"Wei Wei, it's okay, right?"

Xia Weiwei took out all the crushed sugar from the bottom of the barrel: "Yes."

"There is so much grass juice to cook this little sugar, and it seems that there is not much after all the grass stems are squeezed." Divided according to the head, no one is too old.

Suddenly thinking of the grass stalks collected by various ministries, Ah Niu felt a little warm.

If you can boil the grass stems collected from various ministries into sugar, not to mention how much you can take away when you migrate, at least you can eat it for a few more days.

With candy in his mouth, not to mention that Ah Niu can't help but think too much, even Xia Weiwei's heart is not at peace.

"Although the grass stems have a sweet taste, the sweetness is not high. After cooking in this way, the water contained in the grass stems is just evaporated."

Ah Niu may not understand the meaning of the word evaporation, but the grass stems are not that sweet, and he knows that there is a lot of water in them.

Therefore, he guessed the meaning of Xia Weiwei's words to seven or eight percent.

After thinking about it, I couldn't help but feel relieved: "In this year's situation, it is enough to try something new."

There was a lot of movement here, Lan Yu and the others looked at it and it was heart-wrenching, seeing Xia Weiwei handing candies to A Niu and the other three one after another, he couldn't hold it anymore.

"I'll go and have a look." Lan Yu stood up.

Without hesitation, Pingshan, Asong, Wanjiao, Chamois, and Adong followed.

Seeing the leaders of various ministries approaching, Xia Weiwei grabbed the broken candies and handed them to Lan Yu.

Lan Yu was also polite, took it and shared it with Pingshan and the others.

Regarding the candy, they have the same attitudes as Ah Niu, but they have different opinions on the taste in their mouths.

Lan Yu: "Bitter is a bit bitter, but this bit of bitterness combined with sweet ginseng is not unpalatable."

Pingshan: "It's crispy and sweet, it's not too delicious."

A-Dong: "It would be better if it didn't have this sour taste."

Three people, three meanings, the meanings are quite different, the three of them couldn't help but look at Asong, Chamois and Benjiao who didn't speak.

After sniffling the sweet saliva left in his mouth, the corner of the mouth spoke first: "It's a bit sour, but the sourness mixed with the sweetness can be ignored. As for the bitterness, I didn't taste it."

Turning the corner, Ah Song said with doubts in his eyes: "The sour taste is a little bit, but it can be ignored, and the bitter taste cannot be ignored."

"I only tasted a faint sour taste." The chamois said that he didn't taste any bitterness.

Several people had the taste of Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit, and they didn't even analyze the specific taste of the candy in their mouths.

"Let's try it again." Xia Weiwei picked out a light yellow candy and handed it over: "Don't chew so fast, keep it in your mouth, and let the candy melt slowly in your mouth."

The difference in taste was too great, and Lan Yu couldn't wait, and as soon as the candy cubes were delivered this time, he knew that the problem was not with their mouths, but with the sugar.

"The pot I cooked was better, not so burnt. The color and taste of the sugar that was scooped out at the beginning were not bad. The pot that Uncle Jing Ye cooked was a bit big, so the more you scooped out the sugar at the back The greater the bitterness."

After tasting it seven or eight times, Jing Ye already knew the difference between the sugar she cooked and the sugar Xia Weiwei cooked.

"The darker ones are all cooked by me, and the bitter taste on these candies will gradually increase with its color." Very responsible, Jing Ye took over half of the boiled candies.

It's the first time to do it, and the main experiment is not how to cook the best candy. Everyone is very satisfied with the result.

They also tasted the so-called good ones, and several people explained.

Lan Yu: "It's the first time I've made it, and it's amazing that I can eat it."

Hirayama: "Don't be anxious, cook a few more times and you will naturally master the skills."

Chamois: "I thought it would take more than half of the grass stem experiment to complete."

Facing the candy that was made in less than three hours, no one could say anything bad. After talking a few words around the candy, several people turned their eyes to the cauldron containing burnt brown sugar water.

"Is this pot still usable?" Lan Yu asked.

The chamois subconsciously picked up the big spoon and scratched it a few times: "It should not be usable."

There are quite a lot of pots, pots, ladles, and barrels. If two big pots are broken, it will not affect the follow-up development at all. A Dong is about to take down the big pots.

"It should still work." Stopping A-Dong, Xia Weiwei directed A Niu: "Uncle A Niu, light the fire."

At that time, I was too anxious, and never thought about the problem of keeping the fire as a spark. Fortunately, A Niu was used to drilling wood to make fire.

It didn't take long for Xia Weiwei to make arrangements, and the fire was lit again in the fire pit.

"Uncle Adong, Uncle Lanyu, please help pour these two buckets of grass juice into the pot."

While A Niu was cooking the caramel in the grilled pot, Xia Weiwei directed Lan Yu, and A Dong and the others started the second cooking. The grass juice in the cauldron over there began to bubble.

"Uncle A Niu, scoop up the caramel water."

"Hey." A Niu moved briskly.

After A Niu scooped out the caramel water in the two large pots, Xia Weiwei asked him to boil some water, and when another bucket of grass juice came, he asked him to scoop out the boiled grass juice.

After more than three hours of continuous high-intensity stirring, Xia Weiwei's mouth was sore.

Not trying to be brave, she handed over the work of mixing to the chamois, Pingshan and the others.

Time passed by every minute and every second, more and more fire pits were burned, more and more grass juice was boiled, and in the several large pots in charge of the chamois and Pingshan, the clear grass juice gradually decreased, and the color It also slowly changed.

Just in case, Xia Weiwei didn't ask everyone to gather the sugar juice that was about the same amount of water, but let several people do their own thing.

When the color of the sugar in the cauldron in front of him changed from clear to light yellow, Jing Ye who stood on the side tensed up: "Wei Wei, is it almost there?"

After scanning one by one, Xia slightly shook his head: "No, I have to do it again. If there is too much water, it will be spoiled."

Even if it was the first time to do it, Xia Weiwei did better than herself in this only experience.

Although Jingye was a little anxious, after Xia Weiwei said this, he still held back temporarily until the bright orange turned orange red: "Weiwei?"

Glancing at each of them, Xia Weiwei nodded at him, and shouted: "Anneal, all of them have been annealed, and the ashes have also been cleaned."

Following Xia Weiwei's order, the person in charge of burning the fire immediately pulled out the fodder in the fire pit, and Jing Ye was a few steps ahead of Xia Weiwei, and sent the long trays with square grooves prepared earlier in the morning to Lan Weiwei. Yu and the others are at the side of the pot.
