Chapter 319 Sugar Cane Sugar Production
"What's wrong!"

Qin Shou lowered his voice.

He thought there was some wild beast nearby, so he immediately covered his mouth and looked around nervously.

"There's a giant panda over there!"

"If you make too much noise, it will scare it away."

Lu Chen pointed in the direction of the giant panda.

"Giant panda!"

Qin Shou was so surprised that he couldn't help but raise his voice slightly.

But he quickly reacted and covered his mouth.

"I want to see giant pandas."

“I’ve only seen them in zoos before, and I’ve never seen wild giant pandas!”

Qin Shou whispered with excitement on his face.

"Okay, but you smell like a wolf."

"Wolves are ferocious beasts, and giant pandas should be wary."

"First rub it on the nearby bamboo to see if you can cover up some of the smell."

Lu Chen thought for a while and said.

Although Lu Chen should have been tainted with the smell of wolves, when he found the giant panda, he had been cutting sugar cane for a while, so the smell might have dissipated a little.

And Qin Shou had just arrived. He came on Hei San, so the smell was naturally stronger.

"it is good."

Qin Shou hugged a piece of bamboo and started rubbing it.

When he felt the smell of bamboo on his body, Qin Shou carefully walked in the direction Lu Chen was walking.

He saw a big black and white dumpling from a distance, and Qin Shou's eyes lit up.

He carried the camera and captured the giant panda's every move more clearly.

The giant panda was gnawing bamboo shoots there, and while eating, he did not forget to observe the movements of the two people.

Seeing that the two of them didn't seem to have any intention of harming themselves, it continued to eat.

Lu Chen had already dug some bamboo shoots. He peeled off the hard skin on the surface of the bamboo shoots, leaving only the tenderest core in the middle.

After doing this, he placed the peeled and tender bamboo shoots on the ground, and then stepped away.

"Don't you have to give it directly?"

Qin Shou asked.

"I'm afraid that if I get close to it, it will be scared, so I'll keep a little distance."

Lu Chen said helplessly.

Of course he also wants to get close to the giant pandas, but the problem is that the giant pandas may reject them.

The two of them retreated a lot until the dense bamboo forest almost obscured their figures. Then they stopped and hid there to observe the giant panda.

The giant panda held a half-eaten bamboo shoot in his hand, but his eyes were looking at the pile of freshly peeled bamboo shoots not far away.

It looked left and right to make sure there was no one around, and then tentatively approached Sun Xin.

It stretched out its paws and poked the hearts of several bamboo shoots, but there was no abnormality. Finally, it couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food.

It carefully ate a peeled bamboo shoot, and its eyes suddenly lit up.

He ignored the half-eaten bamboo shoots in his hand and threw them aside. He ate the bamboo shoots in front of him.

Soon, it had eaten all the bamboo shoots. It rubbed its belly with unfinished content, then got up and wandered away.

"Giant pandas are so cute."

"I really want to go up there and masturbate, but unfortunately I can't get close to it."

Qin Shou felt a little regretful.

"After eating our food this time, I think you won't be so resistant when you see us again in the future."

Lu Chen was very open-minded.

Being able to accept their kindness is a good start. It will definitely get better and better in the future, and the relationship will get closer and closer.

The giant panda had already left, and the two of them cut down a lot of sugar cane and bamboo and brought them back together.

“What to do with this sugar cane?”

"If you want sucrose, do you have to peel off the surface first?"

Back at the camp, Qin Shou asked Lu Chen.

He only knew that most of the sugar on the market was made from sugar cane, which is the raw material for brown sugar.

But he had no idea how to make it and what process it required.

"You really need to peel it off." Lu Chen nodded.

The first step in making sugar from sugar cane is to remove the leaves and hard skin.

"Our conditions are limited and we can only make syrup."

"If you want granular sugar on the market, you have to use a special machine to separate it."

“I’m not sure if it’s possible to make wine from syrup, so I’ll have to try it first.”

Lu Chen was not sure.

Sugar can indeed be made, but wine is a bit more risky.

"It doesn't matter if it works or not, there are so many grapes over there anyway."

"That kind of grape is sour and astringent, so it can only be used to make wine."

"It's a waste to let it go. We might as well consume it."

"And even if we can't make wine, it's still good for us to drink syrupy water."

"Although the fruits on this island are quite sweet, they still taste different from straight sugar. It's good to change the taste occasionally."

Qin Shou said indifferently.

It would be best to have wine to drink, and if you don't have it, it won't be a loss.

"Okay, let's make sugar first."

“As soon as the sugar is ready, we’ll start making wine.”

Lu Chen started peeling sugar cane.

Just take it one step at a time, it’s not a big deal.

After peeling the sugar cane, Lu Chen split a bamboo in the middle.

One end of the bamboo was left uncut, and Lu Chen tied that end tightly with a rope.

In this way, it becomes a simple long clip.

Then, put the sliced ​​sugar cane into segments and squeeze it hard to squeeze out the juice from the sugar cane.

The juice fell into the clay pot and gradually gathered together.

Squeeze all the sugar cane dry, and there is half a can of sugar cane juice in the clay pot.

"This is just sugar water, it's quite sweet."

"Are you using this directly to make wine?"

Qin Shou dipped a little and tasted it.

The sugar water tastes very sweet, but not bad.

This original sugarcane juice has both sweetness and the original fragrance of sugarcane.

"It needs to be cooked again to evaporate the water and turn it into syrup."

Lu Chen put the clay pot on the stove.

Bring the sugar water in the jar to a boil over low heat and stir with a thin bamboo stick to prevent it from sticking to the bottom.

It didn’t take long for a thick syrup to form.

"That's it. Let it dry for a while and it will form a thicker sugar paste."

Lu Chen also took a bite.

The taste is okay, it should be good for making wine.

While waiting for the sugarpaste to form, the two began preparing dinner.

After eating and drinking enough, everything is almost ready.

The purple grapes needed for winemaking have been washed, and spread out to dry outside. Now the moisture on the surface has been dried, and they can be used directly.

"Make a can of wine and try it first to see if it works and how it tastes."

"Let's just use a simple brewing method."

"Spread one layer of sugar and one layer of grapes like this."

Lu Chen pinched the grapes slightly to make fermentation easier.

He covered the bottom layer of the clay pot with sugarpaste, and then spread out the sugarpaste layer by layer.The top is covered with another layer of sugar paste.

After doing it, put the lid on and seal it with yellow mud.

"Okay, let's check the situation in a few days."

Place the clay pot in a cool, dark place and wait for fermentation.

"Great, we should have wine to drink in a while."

Qin Shou rubbed his hands expectantly.
