With the sugar cane grove in hand, and the pulping truck from Wang Dashan just arriving, Ning Pengpeng felt that everything was ready.
He called his son and daughter-in-law to come back after cutting down sugar cane, and asked them to cut down two acres of sugar cane before they were done.
Ning Pengpeng asked the second and third sons to remove the heads and tails of the sugar cane first, and then cleaned it, then put the sugar cane into the pulping truck, and drove the cattle to start spinning, and saw that the sugar cane water was squeezed out.
Put the sugarcane bagasse that has been rolled once and roll it repeatedly until the juice becomes less and then discard it.
Then let Lao Si light up the fire, pour the squeezed juice into the jar, and wait until the water splashes turn into fine beads, like boiled paste. Ning Pengpeng twisted his hands and felt that it was already sticky.
Then it came out.
At this time, the color of the syrup is still black and yellow. Wait for it to condense into sugar paste, and then put the tiles customized by Lao Si on the vat.
The shape of the tile is wide at the top and pointed at the bottom. First plug the small hole at the bottom of the tile, then pour the sugar paste in, wait for the sugar paste to solidify, and then remove the stuff stuffed in the small hole below, Ning Pengpeng
Then pour the mixed yellow mud water down from the top.
In this way, the black syrup will drip into the vat, and what remains about five inches thick on the top of the vat is the freshly baked white sugar.
Seeing the sugar in the tiles, Ning Pengpeng almost burst into tears!
However, in the end, Ning Pengpeng did the pouring of the sugar paste into the tiles and the pouring of the solidified sugar paste with yellow mud water, behind everyone else's back.
This is also the reason why Ning Pengpeng divided the hut at the back into two and surrounded it with straw curtains.
This sugar matter must not be spread out now.
One pound of white sugar requires about seven or eight pounds of sugar cane, and these two cents of land can produce nearly one hundred pounds of white sugar.
And this nearly one hundred pounds of white sugar is enough to make snacks at home.
However, if the sugar cane in the field is not cut down in time, it may also rot in the field.
Therefore, every two days, Ning Pengpeng would ask his sons to cut sugar cane and make sugar.
The rest of the time is spent squeezing the juice and transporting the pastries to the town for sale.
She wrapped all the sugar she made in oil paper and locked it in the box where she originally kept her clothes.
During the two days when he was free, in addition to squeezing the sugar cane water and selling it, Ning Pengpeng received hard-earned money of one penny for every ten kilograms of sugar cane, saying that he was squeezing the sugar cane water for those who bought sugar cane fields in the village.
It must be said that Mrs. Ning's stingy image is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
When others learned that Mrs. Ning’s family charged a penny for the hard work of squeezing the sugar cane water, they immediately felt that it was no longer so strange that she had told her how to squeeze the sugar cane for free!
After all, Ning Pengpeng did tell everyone how to make a rolling truck!
But when I think about it, it costs a lot of money to build this pulping truck, plus I have to buy a cow to drive home. How much money is spent just to drink a sip of sweet water?
If you are not a fool, who is willing to do it?
Just when those people felt that they had been deceived, Ning Pengpeng came out and said that he was willing to provide sugar cane water every other day for a penny for each ten kilograms of sugar cane.
At first, some people were angry, thinking that Mrs. Ning was blackmailing people.
I even think that Li Zheng was involved in it, tricking everyone into buying the sugar cane field just for this moment.
At that time, Ning Youzhi was also full of anger. He didn't expect that squeezing a bowl of sugar cane water would be so complicated, and he suddenly became a little angry.
It was Ning Pengpeng who came to him and asked him to cut down his family's sugar cane and send it to Ning's family.
Then after squeezing the juice and filtering it several times, the third son took Li Zheng's eldest son Yongjin to the town to sell the pastries and the juice.
In just a few hours, all the cakes and sugar cane water were sold.
Ning Yongjin was sitting in the carriage driven by Ning Youshou, dumbly holding the money earned from the sugar cane water sold early this morning, his whole person was in a state of confusion.
When Ning Youzhi asked him how he was doing when he arrived in his yard, Ning Yongjin dumped the money bag he was holding on the table.
With a crash, hundreds of copper coins rolled onto the table, and some of them rolled like bones from the table to the ground.
When Ning Youzhi saw this, he stood up suddenly and looked at the silver in front of him in disbelief.
"Is this how much the sugar cane water you squeezed was sold for today?"
"Yes, dad, how come those people don't seem to need any money, but they only have a penny for a bowl, and yet they all come here to buy it?"
Ning Yongjin only felt that he was still in a dream, otherwise, how could money be earned so easily?
"Haha, my aunt is indeed right. These sugar cane forests are a free cornucopia! We only spent 500 yuan per acre of land, but the sugar cane we went to squeeze out the sugar cane water in the morning only had a few cents of land.
From just a few acres of sugar cane, the money earned is almost as much as one acre of land!
If you cut down all the sugar cane in the sugar cane fields you bought, squeeze it into juice and sell it, how much money will you make?"
The daughters-in-law, who originally complained about their father-in-law buying so much wasteland after hearing what Mrs. Ning said, looked at each other in disbelief. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Ning really had such ability?
After learning that the Li Zheng family had made money by squeezing sugar cane water, others who had bought sugar cane fields also flocked to the Ning family.
A penny for juicing is just the price of a bowl of sugar cane water!
If anyone didn't want to give money, just get a bowl of sugar cane water instead, and Ning Pengpeng didn't object.
In this way, even if all her own sugar cane is turned into white sugar, there will still be sugar cane from other people’s fields for her to use!
"Ms. sir, I heard that the pastries and sugar cane water sold by the third brother are very popular in the town."
The news that Ning Laosan was making money selling cakes in the town naturally reached the ears of Ning Laosan and Liu.
Because the third child had bought up all the dozen kilograms of brown sugar in the store before!
My father-in-law was shocked by this, but he had to go to the state capital to get the brown sugar.
There is really no need to travel such a long way just for the same brown sugar.
Therefore, Ning thought that since the third child could not buy brown sugar, naturally he would not be able to make pastries!
Although I am envious of the money that the third child has earned during this period, I am not jealous at all.
"He hasn't come to our house to buy brown sugar for a long time, so how can he still make that pastry? Could it be related to the sugar cane water?"
Boss Ning also had a puzzled look on his face, but he soon thought that the third boss took the villagers to the town to sell sugar cane water for a penny a bowl, which was sweeter than brown sugar.
In this town, many families can't afford brown sugar, but they can still buy a bowl of sugar cane sweet water for a penny.
Anyone who has bought sugar cane water knows that this sugar cane water is much sweeter than brown sugar water!
You know, brown sugar is extremely expensive. Who would be so generous as to add more brown sugar to a bowl of water?
Only this sugar cane is sweet in itself, and the juice extracted from it is naturally very sweet!
The news that the sugar cane water sold in An Town was sweeter than brown sugar water soon spread to other towns.
