After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man
Chapter 31 Sugarcane Sugar
The sugarcane has been harvested, and the next step is to concentrate on making sugar.
Cut fresh sugar cane and squeeze it to get sugar cane juice. Sugar cane juice contains a lot of impurities and needs to be boiled and clarified. During the boiling process, impurities will float out with bubbles. After bubbles are generated, turn to low heat and skim off the foam manually. After the impurities are almost removed, use high heat to evaporate the water. When it is about to be served, turn to low heat and stir. Pour the syrup into a special mold and let it cool and solidify naturally. Then put the solidified sugar blocks in the sun to dry and remove excess water. Then pound the dried sugar blocks into powder to get the final sugar product.
The process of boiling sugar cane is not complicated. Bai Qingyun only demonstrated it once and everyone in the family learned it. As soon as the syrup came out of the pot, the family couldn't wait to boil a pot of water to brew it.
As the sweet taste entered her throat, Bai's mother couldn't help but sigh: "I cut so much sugar cane during the day. After drinking this sugar water, I feel much more awake and energetic."
This is the same reason why girls should often drink brown sugar water. In fact, regardless of gender, sugar has high calories. After digestion and absorption by the human body, it can generate a lot of heat energy, help people eliminate fatigue, and is a good nutrient for patients, the elderly and children. It is also a health food for those working in high temperatures, high altitudes and underground.
Not only that, sugar has a sweet taste. Adding a little sugar to many foods can make people feel sweet, help promote appetite, and also have the effects of beautifying, moistening the lungs and promoting salivation.
Bai Qingyun explained to everyone the benefits of sugar, and also specifically reminded Grandma Bai and Mother Bai of the benefits of drinking more brown sugar water during menstruation.
He reminded everyone: "If you feel tired from work in the future and feel a little dizzy or other minor discomfort, soaking in some brown sugar water can also relieve it!"
As for the fact that excessive consumption of sugar can lead to health problems such as tooth decay, obesity, and diabetes, Bai Qingyun was not very worried. The Bai family did not indulge in food. They might keep new things fresh for a few days at first, but later on they would know the principle of eating them in moderation.
Although the steps of making sugar are simple, there is too much sugarcane. It will take several days to make all the sugarcane in a warehouse.
Bai Qingyun put all the sugarcanes in the granary. Seeing that the panda system loved to eat them, he left some for the system to plant on the top of the mountain. It happened that he had originally planned to plant some fruit trees on half of the mountain, but Bai Qingyun had been busy and had not had time to find some saplings.
The remaining sugar-making could only be handed over to other people in the family. Bai Qingyun calculated the days and found that he had been busy with farming and sugarcane cutting since he came back from the county town. In total, he was busy for more than ten days.
The first batch of preserved eggs should be ready. Before coming back, I specifically asked Xie Shuer to buy some extra chicken eggs and duck eggs every day to make them. I think there should be quite a few piled up in the house, so it’s time to prepare them for sale.
On the eve of departure, the family was busy making sugar in the kitchen. The three brothers of the Bai family came home from school, finished their homework assigned by their teacher, and joined the army of making sugar.
Bai Qingyun was busy in the space for a long time.
"System, can this really become a pill?"
Bai Qingyun is concerned about Grandpa Xie's illness. Although Bai Qingyun is not familiar with medical skills, the healing effect of Lingquan Water is real.
The space cannot be known to outsiders except family members, so Bai Qingyun can only make pills containing spiritual spring water to hide his secret.
In order to make it look realistic, I went to a hilltop full of medicinal herbs and picked some common herbs, and put them in the mixture to boil together.
But making pills is not as easy as imagined. After putting the herbs into water and waiting for the water to boil down, Bai Qingyun was at a loss for a moment as to how to make them into pills.
Or was it that the system was chewing sugar cane nearby, and the sugar cane juice that remained on its belly and stuck to the hair gave Bai Qingyun inspiration.
He then left the space, took out the freshly brewed syrup from the kitchen, and added it to the medicinal materials, acting as a binder, making the originally liquid potion slowly become viscous until it solidified.
In this way, one person and one Tong were busy in the space for a long time, and finally made more than a dozen bottles of pills.
Naturally, it was impossible to give all the pills to Xie Shuer at once. Firstly, it was not known whether Grandpa Xie's body could withstand the concentrated spiritual spring water. Secondly, Bai Qingyun could not explain the origins of so many pills. If there were fewer pills, he could just say that he got the medicine prescribed by the itinerant doctor!

This time when we went to the county town, we didn't have much luggage and the land journey would take a long time, so we decided to take the water route to the town.
In addition to Bai's father, Bai's mother will also go this time. The family has bought some property after all, and Xie Shu'er is nominally a servant in the family, so there must be a mistress to take care of things.
Everyone in the Bai family was not too surprised about Bai Qingyun buying a house in the county town. Since they got the money from Lingzhi, it was only a matter of time before the family bought real estate and land.
It’s just that Grandma Bai and Grandpa Bai are a little dissatisfied that the house is registered under their names, because the family life has changed because of their granddaughter.
In the opinion of the two elders, this house should have been registered under Bai Qingyun's name.
Bai Qingyun himself didn't think it mattered. Buying a house in the county town was a spur of the moment decision, and meeting Xie Shuer was an unexpected surprise.
What's more, next year will be a year of severe drought and war, with refugees everywhere. The government will not have the energy to manage them, and the houses in the county will become the first choice of bandits.
Between the poor countryside and the wealthy county town, anyone with a brain capable of robbery would know which to choose.
Bai Qingyun didn't know to what extent his rebirth could influence the world. He was just an ordinary citizen. Even if he had the space in his hands, it would be impossible for him to try to shake a tree like an ant!
There is almost a year left, and Bai Qingyun only hopes that he can protect the people he wants to protect, and that is enough.
It is better to sell the houses in the county town as soon as possible before the drought comes. After all, there is a food shortage due to the drought. Many families sell their children just to have food to eat. Who would have the leisure to buy a house?
The passenger ship soon docked at the county pier, and Bai Qingyun thought so when he got off the ship.
"Ice~Sugar~Gourd~"
Despite the noisy hawking, Bai Qingyun still looked at the old man selling candied haws.
It's like when someone suddenly calls your name at a cocktail party, you will always subconsciously look up at him.
"Sister Shu'er, when can we go buy candied haws like the kids in the yard?"
After escaping from the tiger's mouth, the two little girls snuggled up to each other against the city wall.
The old man selling candied haws inside the city wall had only one string of candied haws left on the straw target in his hand. A girl wearing an exquisite silk dress on the roadside was holding her sister who was acting coquettishly. The sister scratched her sister's nose lovingly, then walked towards the old man selling candied haws and bought the last string of candied haws.
"Yes, after we settle down, I will do some embroidery and use the money I save to buy Yun'er some candied haws!"
Xie Shuer didn't know how long this period of fleeing from famine would last, but she still gave Bai Qingyun hope of survival.
Unfortunately, the last two people couldn't resist the reality...
Just a wall separates us, but they are two different lives!
