Wearing a book, what about farming text? !

Lin Anyu didn't participate, and watched them actively slap the people, and then found fifteen uninjured men, and dragged them out of the village together with the village chief.This time they were going to be sent to the yamen, and the village head followed him. Apart from worrying that they might not do well, he also went to the yamen to find someone to inquire about.

The village chief said he didn't believe what the head said at the beginning, but he still cared a little bit in his heart, so he took the opportunity to ask this time.In his opinion, it may be that few people in their stone village go out and don't know the news, but the people in the county must know about it.

"We're leaving too, waiting here for the idiots." Lin Anyu lifted the grain bag on the ground and put it on his shoulder, and the other hand was still free to hold Hao Yu.This black light is blind, it's not good if it falls, even if it's not too dark, but it's night after all.

"Here we come." Hao Yu didn't think too much about whether they should go back. Anyway, since An Yu said it, there must be his reasons.

"An Yu, why don't you wait any longer, what if the official comes here soon?" This is the dog's mother, Zhong Shi, and Lin Anyu helped treat her son just now, and this is kindly persuading him.

"Don't worry, our village is only a little bit wider. I won't be too late when the officials arrive." Lin Anyu didn't want to wait here any longer after going through such a situation. Anyway, there would be no results. "Aunt Zhong, you guys should go back and rest too. As long as you can hand it in, the officials will definitely not care so much."

After Lin Anyu finished speaking, he went back with Hao Yu. The two days' affairs should be over, and the follow-up has nothing to do with him.Oh, it's not that he's completely out of it, the good things in his cave haven't been moved back yet.After waiting for two days, he will find time to do it by himself, there is no need to call others.

Aunt Zhong looked down at the mess on the ground, and could still see the mottled blood on it, she couldn't help shivering.It always feels gloomy here, especially with the sound of insects around, and it always feels like something will rush out of the woods.

Even though her husband and son were still here, she couldn't resist the chill that emerged from her heart. After a little hesitation, she dragged Goudan and his father back.Lin Anyu was right, as long as they came out immediately when the official came, they would be in time, and their home was not far from the entrance of the village.

After Lin Anyu went back, he didn't come out again. He only sorted out the grains yesterday, and the remaining straws were piled aside. He tied them into bundles and put them in an empty room for stacking.Their family does not raise poultry, but at least one sheep will be raised in the second half of the year, so the straw will not be wasted, and they can be consumed as rations for sheep.

From here to the county seat, it was already early in the morning. When the village chief came back, he saw the people waiting at the entrance of the village and told them to go back. This year, they don't have to pay again.

The village chief didn't say why, so he went home directly, leaving behind the group of people who had been waiting at the entrance of the village all night, and went back without knowing why.

In fact, the village chief's reaction was easy to understand. When they went out this time, they happened to come across the corpses of those three men who were fat enough to pretend to be officials.

Thinking of the village head, he panicked. After living most of his life, he was just cheated by a few people, and almost sent out the rations of the villagers.I feel ashamed to face all the stone village people who believe in him, at least not now.

But aside from the village chief, the fifteen men who went with him also knew the ins and outs, and it didn't take long for everyone to know.

As for the few people Lin Anyu rescued, their families also sent some thank-you gifts over the next night, all of which were food and the like. For them, these were good things.The He family also put away all of them, as a thank you gift for helping, of course it is good to accept it.

……

The beets in Lin Anyu's field were harvested in two days and piled up in the yard. At the beginning, they wanted to plant them to make sugar. The effort spent a few months ago is now waiting.

"Can this really make sugar?" Lin Dajiang looked at the beets piled up in the yard, feeling disbelieving.Sugar is so expensive, the price is almost the same as salt, and now the vegetables grown in their fields can become that expensive sugar, he feels like picking up money.

"Yes!" Lin Anyu nodded affirmatively. Anyway, the words are left here, and today he will fight with this thing. It is absolutely impossible that he can't do it!

"Then what shall I do?"

"Cut the beetroot and leaves. I only use the root. Let's put the leaves aside and see how to deal with it after finishing." Lin Anyu greeted, and the whole family came together to separate the beetroot and wash it with water.This beetroot looks about the size of a white radish, but the beetroot is red and the leaves are similar.

Shred the washed beets. To be honest, the most difficult thing is to shred them. After all, the shreds of two and a half acres of beets will be so sore that you can't lift them up.

It seems that there is no shortcut for this thing, but it can be taken slowly. Now that the crops in the field are all harvested, there is no other thing to be busy for the time being, so they can concentrate on it.

Lin Anyu doesn't know much about this thing, but he does know how sugar cane is made. He once saw cane sugar made in a small factory, and when he thought it was interesting, he tried it himself. It was not difficult.Later, I heard that sugar beet can also be made into sugar, so I inquired about it.

Generally speaking, the difference with sugar cane is not very big, but sugar cane is directly squeezed into juice, but beet can’t, it needs to boil hot water separately, put beet shreds into hot water and heat again, so that the sugar in beet can penetrate out.The sugar cane sugar production process includes juice extraction, cleaning, evaporation, crystallization, nectar separation and drying, and after beet juice is made, the steps are the same as sugar cane.But what they do here is not so fine, as long as the sugar can be produced, there is no need to make crystal clear white sugar, and some steps can be omitted.

Lin Anyu drained the shredded beets that had been melted from the sugar, and the remaining juice only needs to be boiled to dry. He will make simple brown sugar first.At least after confirming the feasibility, think about other things, not to mention, most of them are brown sugar, but white sugar is rare.

The water in the pot gradually decreased, and they could clearly see that the remaining juice was becoming more and more viscous, and they turned off the fire after it felt right, leaving only sparks buried in ash.Lin Anyu kept stirring the pot. At this time, the water was almost gone, and it was the time when it was most likely to become mushy.

At this moment, the air is full of sweet and greasy smell, which makes people who don't like sugar feel very uncomfortable. At least Mu Shao has been rushed outside by this smell, and consciously went to cut beets.He would rather keep working here than in the kitchen.

After a while, the temperature in the stove was completely gone, and the juice in the pot became a dry object, which looked a little scattered like powder, and did not agglomerate.

Lin Anyu dipped a little bit of it with his chopsticks, tasted it, and put it back without changing his expression under the circumstance of being watched by the crowd.

"How is it? Is it finished?" Lin Dajiang asked anxiously. He was the most impatient here. Seeing that Lin Anyu didn't speak after tasting it, he became anxious.

Although they have already smelled it, they have never done this thing before, and they are a little unbelievable, and they don't usually think that sugar can be smelled?Maybe it smells like it, but it's not the same thing when it's eaten in the mouth, then their past few months will be in vain.

"Alas..." Lin Anyu shook his head, and silently put down the chopsticks.

Lin Dajiang hurriedly took a pair of chopsticks, tasted it himself, and blinked after thinking about it, it seemed to be similar to the ones they bought.Doesn't that mean it's done?But is there something wrong with Lin Anyu's expression just now?He looked into the pot hesitantly and asked cautiously.

"This seems to be brown sugar...isn't it?"

Lin Dajiang's appearance made He want to laugh. Lin Dajiang didn't know if he didn't cook. The brown sugar was similar to what she used, and he could tell the difference just by looking at it.

"Yes, this is brown sugar, and I didn't say no. I just thought, this thing is a bit water-consuming, and I don't know if we can turn all those beetroots in the yard into sugar for storage before the real drought." Lin Anyu really didn't mean to tease him, but just by the way.

He is indeed worried about this, perhaps because there is a river in their village, the water source is still abundant, and the well in the village has only dropped slightly.But the water level in this river is getting lower and lower. Even though the villagers no longer need to carry water to irrigate the fields, it is still decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.Maybe the river will stop flowing one day, and at this time, the well water will definitely not be available as much as it is now.

When Lin Anyu said this, they also remembered it. Obviously, they also knew this, even better than Lin Anyu.The smile on He's face also disappeared, which was what she had been worrying about.This is not the flood. It is impossible for the flood to submerge all the places, but it is possible to be drought, and they are not the only places where the sun shines.

"We're going to make beets into sugar now, so we can worry less when we finish it earlier." Lin Dajiang picked up the kitchen basin and went out. The knife and chopping board were outside, just take a basin for beet shreds.

"You guys go and shred, Xiaoyu and I will be together in the kitchen. I saw you doing this just now, and I almost understand everything." He tied up his sleeves, put the brown sugar in the pot and put it away, and directly Pour water into the pot and prepare to boil the water. Anyway, the pot is covered with sugar and there is no paste, so there is no need to wash it again.

"Then I'm going out." After Lin Anyu finished speaking, he went outside and shredded with them. The beet here is only three tons per mu, which is more than half of the modern production.But they have two and a half acres of land, and there are seven tons of beets. These seven tons of beets are not easy to cut.

So much so that Lin Anyu has been in conflict with these beetroots for a while, and basically sits there and shreds them when nothing happens.Others basically can't do it after two hours, so they have to rest for a while, but Lin Anyu has been doing it here.

It's not that I haven't thought of other methods, such as the iron sheet that can be shredded directly in the modern kitchen, but in terms of speed, it is not as fast as his.

As for using a stone mill to directly grind it into juice, it is said that the sugar beet needs to be melted in hot water. There will be a lot of dross in the ground cells, which is very unfriendly to the storage of sugar.

In the end, it was decided to just cut it into thin slices. At most, it would be slower when the sugar oozes out. Four new stoves were set up outside, and it was not very slow to cook at the same time.As for the pot, I went to the county to buy it again. Usually, no one would keep several pots with a width of one meter at home.

Lin Anyu felt a little tired at first, but after doing it for a long time, he didn't feel much.Every day his arms are exercised like this, and he didn't feel sore the next day. The benefits of his strength ability to the body are too great, and the original benefits have not yet been developed.

Now Lin Anyu's interest has become sliced ​​or shredded beets, and his consumption of beets at home is continuously decreasing.In just ten days, only a few dozen catties remained from the original seven tons, and Lin Anyu stopped what he was doing.

Generally speaking, power abilities are used to make others unable to resist with force, but how much is used is also particular.Sometimes it is not necessary to use so much force. This is the principle of killing a chicken with a sledgehammer. If he can control it more finely, then he will be able to persist longer, and the hope of winning the fight will be greater.

Since he felt that the strength and persistence in his body had yet to be developed, he asked the rest of the family to stop doing this work, and he took care of the beetroot by himself, and asked Mu Shao and the others to help chop firewood.Although there are quite a lot of dried branches and dead grass at this time, it is a basket if you hug it casually, but someone has to bend down to pick it up.

They used a lot of firewood during this period, and it was burned out quickly, so Mu Shao and the others went to work on it.Every day I go to the back mountain to look for firewood, choose the water to be used today, and then help with some odd jobs.

Lin Anyu lowered his head and concentrated on handling the beetroot in his hands, drops of sweat slipped from his chin.He didn't feel tired, just a little hot.

"Take a break, this is almost finished, don't be so anxious." Hao Yu took the soaked handkerchief to wipe his sweat, and the cool handkerchief brushed his face, Lin Anyu immediately felt a lot more relaxed.

"What's the rest? There are still dozens of catties. After cutting, I will rest slowly. What's more, I really don't feel tired." Lin Anyu is not only not tired now, but also a little excited and even wants to hum a few words, but when he opened his mouth, he found himself Can't sing at all, silently closed his mouth, and said that nothing happened just now.

"Mother said to dry all these beet leaves and save them for later eating, but it's not bad to just copy them like this, but there are too many to eat." Hao Yu felt a little pity, but dried vegetables and fresh vegetables are two different flavors , In fact, it tastes good when there is no shortage of oil.

"Okay, I'll do it with you after I finish cutting here." Lin Anyu waited for Hao Yu to finish wiping him, and then continued to bury his head in the pile of beets.

Speaking of it, I don't know if I'm used to it, but Hao Yu hasn't felt so uncomfortable recently, and her complexion looked ruddy before.He didn't catch him to drink some tonic soup. In fact, it's not that Lin Anyu can't make ice, but his body can't stand the cold and heat, and his body can't keep in touch with the cold. Now the cellar has added The water in the corner is just right.

With a bang, Mu Shao came back from the outside.

"This water is getting less and less. The village chief told each family to fetch only one bucket of water in the future." Mu Shao put down the bucket to show Lin Anyu. He picked two buckets to go there today, but when he came back, he only filled them with water. Picked it back half way through.
