Chapter 394 Prepare
Chapter 394 Preparation
Xue Yihu was afraid that they would drag the bamboo back by themselves, so he put down the work he had on his hands to help chop and drag the bamboo.
With Xue Yihu's help, it didn't take long to drag the bamboo back.
It is really easy to make bamboo tubes for making popsicles. Xue Yihu only had to saw it. It didn’t take much time to saw it, so he sawed enough 60 bamboo tubes. In addition to the forty ones he made at home, it was exactly one hundred.
There were still many thin sticks, but Xue Yihu didn't rush to make thin sticks. He first leaned all the big bamboos against the wall, and then continued to make basins. He felt full of energy.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan put all the sixty newly made bamboo tubes into the backpack, and then carried them by Xue Yan and washed them by the river.
Each piece of bamboo tube is not thick or thin. Even if there are sixty, it is not that heavy, so Xue Yan can still carry it.
Because Xue Yan is here, she didn't go alone, so her family members can rest assured.
When they washed the bamboo tubes back, their families were already making rice noodles again and they made a lot of them. Xue Wuhu was running around in the yard like a monkey, drying rice noodles.
But because I planned to make a lot of rice noodles today, I soaked a lot of early rice and ground it into powder. I definitely couldn't dry so much in the yard today. Xue Wuhu was outside the yard, surrounding the wall of his home, and built a lot of bamboo poles, and then the rice noodles could be dried outside.
This is the first time that the family has dried rice noodles outside. They are white and thin, hung on bamboo poles, just like layers of curtains. When people passing by, they feel fresh when they see them.
More envy.
If you dare to make so many rice noodles, you must have a good business and can be sold.
Before noon, Xue Dafu and his friends finished the finishing work of the workshop and came back to help make rice noodles at home and dry rice noodles.
In the yard and outside the yard, the sun is full.
I guess the rice noodles made today will be sold for many days in the future. Then there is no need to rush to make rice noodles, and more people at home will be busy making ice and selling.
Because Jiang Yue wanted to try how many popsicles could be made from 33 kilograms of saltpeter, Xue Erhu and Xue Wuhu did not help make rice noodles, but helped Jiang Yue make this.
Twenty pieces were made yesterday, which everyone in the family knew.
I tried it a few times today, and finally found that I could make up to thirty pieces.
Thirty-three kilograms of saltpeter, one large basin, can make thirty pops of ice. If one hundred kilograms of saltpeter are made at the same time, it should make 90 pops of ice; if two hundred kilograms are made at the same time, it will be 180 pops of ice.
However, in this way, there are not enough bamboo tubes at home, and there are only ten bamboo tubes and one hundred bamboo tubes at home.
But this matter is also easy to solve. If you really want to make popsicles like this, you can cut bamboo when the time comes. The bamboo forest is not far away, so making this bamboo tube is quick.
You can get 180 pieces at a time. If the popsicles are sold well, it is easy to make a few more times a day and make thousands of popsicles.
What's more, the weather is hot now, so the big pot is placed in the sun, boiled on high heat and dried while drying. The moisture will evaporate faster than usual, and the saltpeter in the ice will precipitate faster.
Then the saltpeter can be used immediately.
There is also a lot of saltpeter precipitated when it freezes, and you can scrape it down immediately and make the next basin.
If you really do this, although there are only 200 kilograms of saltpeter, you can actually make a lot of ice in a day.
As soon as Shen Shi arrived, Xue Yihu had already combined all the small wooden boards. Now, there are really six large basins and six small basins at home.
