Infrastructure maniacs from the East

The wheat planted in the reed frame without soil for a week has grown lush and green. The seedlings on the top are green and lovely, and the roots below are entangled. Xu Tian directed his servants to uproot the wheat seedlings and chop them finely. The starch in the germinated wheat Enzymes can hydrolyze the starch in rice into maltose—yes, both rice and glutinous rice can be used to make maltose. The taste of the final product is the same but the ratio of raw materials is different. Lord Xu is glad that he is a kid who loves to watch food videos Otherwise, he would be so heartbroken to waste some of the materials.

The chopped wheat seedlings are patiently smashed with a wooden mallet. After the rice is cooked, it is mixed with the malt and waited for several hours for the saccharification to be completed. Then the juice is filtered out with sackcloth and boiled. At this stage, the competition is not experience. It's about patience. Long-term stirring usually requires people to take turns to ensure that they stay close to each other. However, the shortage of population in Lord Xu's territory is a bit serious. The chef and his pair of children have been squeezed out with great difficulty by Xu Tian.

After the fire is boiled, the fire is simmered slowly. The white foam on the top will be skimmed off, and the beige juice will gradually turn into a beautiful red gold. Xu Tian carefully observes and confirms that there are big bubbles coming out of the top. If it looks like it, start stirring while observing whether there will be large pieces of sugar on the shovel. If it appears, pour it out while it is hot. It is the maltose that I ate when I was a child. You can't pick too many at once when it's not cold, but Lord Xu is already content.

Some greedy lords still left some solid maltose at the bottom of the pot to make solid maltose—simmer on a low fire until the syrup slowly heals when the shovel is drawn. The reddish-brown color will also gradually fade as it elongates. It is said that there is air in it or some reason... Seeing the sugar silk that has turned into a light golden color, Xu Tian put down his thoughts in an instant, and carefully directed the chef Use a little glutinous rice flour to reduce the stickiness and cut it into small pieces.

"Try it?"

Maybe it was Xu Tian who was careful, maybe God had eyes, in short, the precious rice was not wasted, and the maltose already had a modern taste of Bafen. Lord Xu gave himself a thumbs up in his heart and met the little girl After a pause, he picked up a piece of candy and handed it to little Mary, with gentle eyebrows and eyes dotted with stars.

"...What is this smell?"

Little Mary chewed something unfamiliar in her mouth, and her heart seemed to be blocked by something, and she panicked. The taste in her mouth was something she had never seen before, but the little girl squinted her eyes enjoying it.

"...It's sweet."

Seeing Mary's serious answer, Xu Tian heaved a long sigh in his heart.

How do you live here? Such a big kid doesn't even know the taste of sweetness.

"Divide these."

The long-lost delicacy suddenly became bitter. Lord Xu thought about it for a long time but didn't know what was going on. He just grabbed a few from the inside and walked out sullenly. Before the chef could react, he couldn't find Xu Tian. .

"Lord..."

Picking up a small candy cube and putting it in his mouth, the chef felt that he had a lot to say, but in the end he just sighed vaguely.

"Father, why are you crying?"

Little Mary opened her eyes wide and felt a little strange. The chef looked down and saw clear tear stains on the little daughter's face.

"Give you a little more."

After going back to the room and correcting the documents for a while, Xu Tiancai remembered that he still had candy in his pocket, carefully took out three of them and put them in his palm, smiling brightly at the little butler, while Merel's puzzled and surprised expression successfully made Lord Xu The mood index was not too good, and Xu Tian was inexplicably happy at the uncomfortable feeling of taking the candy from his hands. He blinked his eyes and directly expressed his preference to the little housekeeper.

Melelle flushed from ear to neck.

Xu Tian tried his best to correct the documents, completely unaware of the great sensation caused by the sugar distribution incident. The servants of the castle from old to young were all given a piece of syrup or sugar cube the size of a little finger. The kind chef told me how much it was Precious things, many people put them in their mouths on the spot, but more candies were carefully stuffed into their pockets and hidden away, and they were going to share this taste with their families when they went home at night. Circulate with craftsmen, because they look down on freemen and slaves.

The natural class barrier is not so easy to overcome. Lord Xu, who is not even as good as Zhao Kuo, has been worried about this for a long time but has not come up with any good solution. Finally, he suddenly remembered that what he planned to establish was the feudal era. Temporarily leave the gap between free people and servants to be polished by time. Anyway, because of the regulations, everyone dare not show these blatantly, and Xu Tian, ​​who is very self-aware, does not think that he can do it with his own efforts. Promote the establishment of industrial society.

Sweetness can be said to be an invincible existence in this era. Xu Tian does not intend to show it until it is produced in large quantities. At this time, the routine of making rare things expensive will only focus on his land. In fact, Lord Xu, who dreamed of ten years of grain as the foundation and a hundred years of grain as the foundation, now only wants to develop, and then use cheap sugar to occupy the market in one fell swoop after two or three years. It is most reassuring to leave things like controlling public opinion to the housekeeper, The calmness of the territory also showed that the housekeeper did not disappoint Xu Tian's trust.

The appearance of maltose impacted not only the low-quality sugar market in the Southern Continent, but also the church’s honey business. Xu Tian didn’t take it too seriously, but the church’s headquarters is here, so no matter how greedy you are, Can only be distributed secretly.

Forbearance a moment, calm, take a step back, a brighter future.

I bother!

Tolerance gets more and more angry for a while, and the more you think about it, the more you lose!

Xu Tian's cheeks were swollen into buns. The lord, who had never been wronged here except for basic necessities of life, came for the priest aggressively. No one knew what they talked about in the room, but the priest looked dazed when he came out. Xu Tian The smile on his face made people shiver.

The days passed like this day by day, and the bobbin cart was finally successfully built. The mortise and tenon structure was passed on to the carpenter by Xu Tian, ​​who knew a little about fur, and this carpenter who was a bit stubborn actually studied this technology in depth. The current bobbin cart is A large assembled toy, although there are still some traces of nails inside, it can be seen that the carpenter has made progress. Lord Xu thinks that one day the carpenter will be able to make a high-rise building with mortise and tenon joints as in ancient times, as long as he keeps walking.

To put it another way, the carpenter fell into excitement and frenzy after hearing Xu Tian's description of the tall building. The polishing day after day and year after year has made his craftsmanship more refined, and he knows that his wife, who has daily necessities, is also It is just that he spends a period of time each year taking over the profitable business to ensure that the family has no worries about food and clothing. After a long time, the carpenter realizes that he has reached a place that others look up to, and most of his apprentices have become famous carpenters.

This silly carpenter eventually became a legend.

Now Xu Tian just casually said that this same city fully guarantees the survival of the delicate rice. Lord Xu smiled happily as he watched the rice fields wrinkled by the breeze, and his black eyes were burning with fire.

The bowl of rice that was carefully left behind was delivered to Xu Tian's dining table long ago. The taste of the long-lost rice almost brought tears to the eyes of this 1.8-meter iron-blooded man. There was not even a single grain of rice left, so he reluctantly put down his chopsticks, touched his stomach which was only [-]% full, and sighed with some melancholy and joy.

One day I will eat rice for three meals a day!

Xu Tian silently clenched his fists in his heart and set this great (?) goal, but everyone who tasted the taste of rice had different ideas.

Well, according to the principle of mass conservation and rice expansion, more than one bowl of rice can be steamed out of a bowl of peaked rice, so Xu Tian endured his distress and thought that he only filled one bowl, and simply divided the rest, Knight And the guarantee of the housekeeper class is that everyone can taste a bite, and the chef is allowed to share a bit even if he cooks. It can be said that the lord is really generous.

Lacey is a small businessman in a big city. After her husband died on an unknown night, she became her husband. Covering her neck and strangling her chest, she inherited a man's connections and wanted to give her daughter Before getting married, he saved up a dowry, relying on his family's listening and watching and being cautious among the merchants, finally gained a firm foothold in the caravan for more than half a year, and became her husband Lacey in a real sense. Take the first step out of leaving home for another city.

It turned out that the husband was lazy and would rather exchange all the coins for a glass of inferior wine than buy a little food to keep their mother and daughter from starving. So when Lacey was found dead, the first thought of a woman was to replace her. Of course, in this era Crazy to the extreme, but she has no choice.

Calmly dragged her husband into the pigsty, and after confirming that the man had lost his true colors, she began to pretend to be dumb and ask neighbors for help. Xi's daughter also became very clingy to her father, just a little crazy, and often called Lacey her mother.

I don't know whether it was luck or misfortune, but the first business Lacey made when she stepped out of the city gate was in Febrina's territory. She couldn't take a bath, so she was knocked out directly. At this time, the trade of their caravan was over, and his disguise was not discovered by anyone.

"This is given by the lord. It tastes very good."

A businessman with whom she had a good relationship came over to talk to him when he got out of the car, and tactfully told what happened after he passed out, and Lacey took a bite to confirm the taste after hearing that this kind of food could be preserved for a long time Very good, I have no intention of continuing to eat.

"I'm going to give it to my daughter."

When the businessman asked her why she didn't eat, Lacey just smiled slightly.

"You really love your daughter."

The exclamation, which was half ironic and half admiring, was not taken to heart by Lacey. She had never been away from home for so long, and now she misses her daughter very much. Although she has found someone to take care of her, she is always worried. daughter will be bullied.

Returning home is like an arrow, but she can only follow the caravan to ensure safety. Lacey, who finally came back, gave up going to a closer market and hurried home with slaves and goods, and then saw her leave and vowed to take good care of her. His daughter's neighbor had a fierce look on his face, and the old man's benevolent eyebrows turned into sarcasm. The skirt that was originally worn on his daughter was also on the neighbor's child, and her daughter was directly pushed to the ground, exuding a pungent smell. The smell of rotting food also rolled to the ground covered in dust.

"What are you doing!"

Lacey stepped forward quickly like a she-wolf guarding her cubs, with a frightening rage on her skinny face, and the old man who was originally high-spirited suddenly panicked when he saw her, hesitating and ignoring Say anything, but Lacey stripped them naked and threw them out.

"Give me back whatever I have used, and become a slave if you don't use it!"

"You will go out with me in the future."

Holding her daughter's hand, Lacey, who had always had this idea, finally made a decision, and this decision also led to the birth of the female caravan.

The author has something to say: I found that I especially like to write about the life changes of some small people because of the protagonist...
