The tough wife has room to farm

Chapter 217 The Fan Workshop Begins the Experimental Stage

Early the next morning, Qiu Shangping and Shen Pingxi left Nanhe Village in the Qiu family's carriage, in order to arrange the personnel first, and the most important thing was to find the shopkeeper Liu who had been dismissed from the first floor to come back to be their boss. Big shopkeeper.

If Uncle Liu is such an experienced and well-informed old shopkeeper to help manage their business, it can be said that they will get twice the result with half the effort, and it will also help Nuan Nuan feel ashamed of Uncle Liu.

And Nuannuan attracted Aunt Xiumei, and first went to Beihe Village. Aunt Xiumei’s natal carpenter’s father and brother, who had been cooperating with their family for a long time, went to change the powder-leaking molds for vermicelli and vermicelli. When Aunt Wangshan was free in the shed, she started to tidy up the previous egg workshop.

According to the warm arrangement, several workers went up the mountain to cut bamboo and wood, and prepared the bamboo poles for the drying yard. The space behind Shen's house was very large, and the space for free-range chickens and ducks was reduced, and a large-scale drying yard was easily captured.

The Zhuang brothers went out and collected a lot of yams in the village and the market. This thing is very common in rural areas, and it is also something that some families use to feed themselves when food is insufficient. The harvest year is basically It is used with pigweed as feed.

Just because the yield of sweet potatoes is very high, the price is very cheap, and it is easy to store and has a strong sense of satiety.

There is no ready-made potato flour as raw material, so Wennuan can only start from milling. Wash and peel the potato, grind it into a slurry with a stone mill, and put it in a large basin to settle. These procedures are similar to those of the bean product workshop for making mung beans. The powder process is basically the same.

The potato starch that comes out is much more sinking than water. After it is set aside to settle and dry, the excess water is poured out, and the rest is the hard potato flour raw material that is lumped together.

This process didn’t take much heart. There was Aunt Wangshan who was ingenious and ingenious. She mostly gave voice guidance. The first batch they didn’t make a lot of. A dozen pots of potato starch were collected together, and the quantity was about [-]%. Already quite a lot.

During the two days of drying the potato starch, Aunt Xiumei's natal brother also sent over the warm and urgent custom-made grinding tools. The material is very hard and strong, and it looks like a big basin. Long handle.

In this way, it can be placed on a large pot of boiling hot water at a high altitude, and the prepared potato flour batter is added, and after a little hammering, the powder will flow through the holes of different sizes and thicknesses pierced under the mold. In the water below, after the noodles are mature, put them in a cold water pot to cool them down, and hang them up to dry.

This is vermicelli, the thickness of which can be completely controlled by oneself, while the wide vermicelli is slightly different. It needs a flat abrasive tool to form the whole piece of water-proof vermicelli, and then let it cool and cut it into wide vermicelli by hand.

After that, it is picked up with an arm-length wooden stick, passed through the middle, and placed on a bamboo rack built into two parallel bars to dry and air dry!
After a busy day, more than a dozen pots of potato starch were finally used up, and the warmth of making it for the first time was still as good as Aunt Wangshan, and those who helped the staff felt sore backs.

But seeing that piece of wet vermicelli swaying freely in the breeze, I felt extremely satisfied in my heart.

Aunt Wangshan, who was resting next to Nuannuan, asked curiously, "Xiaonuan, are you going to sell this thing again? What is it called? How should I eat it? It won't spoil if you make so much at once. ?”

"This is indeed our new product. I always call it empty. I don't like it. I just thought of this. These are called sweet potato vermicelli. The thin ones can be called vermicelli, and the thick ones are called wide noodles. Last time we shabu-shabu If there is this at the time, it will be another delicacy, and this is better stored than the elastic noodles, no matter how much it is stored properly, it will not spoil."

"Are you going to dry all these?" Aunt Wangshan made a bold assumption, but she was really wrong.

"That's right, these need to be dried. After drying, the potato flour will become crystal clear. Let's sort it out, cut it according to a certain length, store it, and put it in the pot after three or four months. It's still delicious!"

"It's really so amazing?" Not only Aunt Wangshan, but also the workers who were listening on the side all widened their eyes with an expression of disbelief.

They are all hard-working farmers, and they have more or less experienced years of disaster and bad times, especially the lean season, almost every year.

If there are such vermicelli, then at these times in the future, don’t the whole family need to tighten their belts, drink water to deceive their stomachs, and pretend to be very full. After all, these vermicelli are made of very cheap potato In good times, you can save more.

"To make this kind of vermicelli, of course there are secret ingredients in it, otherwise not everyone can make it, but this thing is really not very expensive when it is made. Our advantage is that we supply it ourselves, and we are the only business."

In fact, the additive inside is alum, and the amount is not very large. When Wennuan Guijing added something to it, he grabbed some potato starch and mixed it with the alum noodles of the same color. It looked like a big bag, but in fact otherwise.

This is also a tactic to guard against villains but not gentlemen. It's not a scheming thing. After all, she still wants to do business, doesn't she.

With this in mind, many workers who had long-term worries stopped their thoughts. Thinking of the fact that someone in the county imitated them to make preserved eggs and lost a lot of money, they gave up other ideas that they shouldn't have.

"How many days will these dry in the sun?"

"Now the weather is hot and the sun is shining. Three to five days is about the same. Just remember to put it away at night, and there will be no dew, and then it will be cloudy and rainy. Everything else will be fine."

Aunt Wangshan has carefully remembered these precautions mentioned casually by Warmth.

After returning home from the workshop in the back, Mrs. Wang was actually waiting in the yard today, and when she saw Nuan came back, she waved to her, "Xiao Nuan, this Xier has been out for two or three days, do you know when she will come back? "

"Mother, this time Pingxi and his brothers are looking for someone. It may take three to five days, maybe a little longer. Is there something wrong with you?"

Since Nuan entered the door, Wang didn't accept it at the beginning, and later, she began to take care of Nuan as her own daughter. Now seeing Wang's hesitant appearance, Nuan was naturally a little worried.

"It's all right... just a little worried, I just asked."

In the end, Wen Nuan even used coquettishness and shamelessness, and Wang shi finally managed to tell the truth.

She poked her warm head and said resentfully, "You silly girl, why are you so careless? I didn't see how many girls out there are already fighting for the top position regardless of face. Our family is doing well now, so you don't have to be afraid that someone will miss you Your husband?"

To tease Wen Nuan, it turned out that her mother-in-law, Wang, was afraid of this, but now Wen Nuan is not worried anymore, after all, Xianggong used to be a dignitary enough to keep himself clean, and now there will be no gossip.

She was very relieved, "Mother, don't worry, if my husband dares to be misbehaving, I will take our women's army to set up another family, let's forget about him!"

"You, just talk crazy, I still have a job, you go to the meeting, you have been tossing around all day, if you have any news, let me know."

"Got it, mother!" The two mothers said a few more words, and went back to their rooms.
