409 Cane Sugar Workshop
The workshop was very big. There were a total of four to five structures built in a circle and connected to form arge courtyard. In the middle of the courtyard was a ce for drying the sugar. As for the other structures, there were all kinds of tools ced inside.
These tools were modified by Old Madam Wang ording to the tool book given by Meatball and adapted to the specific situation in the vige.
Many people in the vige were guarding outside the workshop. Even Ouyang Changjing and the others came after hearing the news.
They had secretlye to take a look at this cane sugar workshop previously. There were many things inside that they had never seen before, so they did not know what use it had.
!!
Old Madam Wang did not stop them and showed it to everyone.
“Auntie Wang, the people who signed the documents in the vige are all here. What can everyone do?” The vige chief’s wife walked forward and said to Auntie Wang with a smile.
Old Madam Wang said to Wang Wng beside her, “You remember what I said to you?”
Wang Wng swallowed his saliva nervously. “Grandma… I…”
He was not sure if he remembered it or not. After all, the time was too short. He did not really trust his memories.
“I remember. I’ll remind Fifth Big Brother!” Little Ah Yu raised her hand high.
Old Madam Wang’s eyes curved as she gently pushed Little Ah Yu forward. “Good child, go ahead.”
Beforeing to the cane sugar workshop, Old Madam Wang took out the blueprint and showed it to Wang Wng and Little Ah Yu. She even taught them how to operate different tools.
She did not intend to teach everybody individually.
She was old and would die of exhaustion if she did everything herself.
Wang Wng felt very pressured. If he made a mistake somewhere, would he mess up such a huge matter?
If he had known earlier, he would not have been in a hurry to return. He should have let Big Brother return!
Speaking of which, the rest of the Wang Family would be back in a few days.
Under everyone’s gazes, Wang Wng held Little Ah Yu’s hand tightly and braced himself as he entered one of the buildings.
The cut sugarcane was already prepared there. There were also two vigers in charge of helping waiting at the side.
“Wng?” Vige Chief Hu shouted softly.
Wang Wng covered his mouth with his hand and pretended to cough before starting to say, “I’ll be demonstrating to everyone now. This is called a juicer—”
At Wang Wng’s signal, the viger on the left picked up a few stalks of cleaned sugarcane and fed them into the juicer.
The viger on the right stepped on a pedal below. At first, his movements were clunky, but they quickly became smoother and smoother. The pedal moved the entire juicer.
Soon, everyone saw a light yellow juice appear at the front of the juicer and flow into the wooden bucket below.
“This is sugarcane water. There’s a connecting passage beside this wooden barrel that leads directly to the next room. Everyone, follow me—”
As Wang Wng exined, everyone was subconsciously attracted. Then, they followed Wang Wng to the next building.
Next door was the boiler room. There were two buckets of sugarcane water that had been prepared long ago and the sugarcane residue that had already been squeezed dry.
“This is the residue of sugarcane that has beenpletely squeezed dry. It can be used to feed livestock and as fertilizer for thend. It can also be used as firewood. There’s no need to waste it.”
The boiler room was where the sugarcane water was turned into cane sugar. Because it involved a secret recipe, Wang Wng only exined the mechanisms verbally.
Wang Wng started from the brown sugar that had already been brewed in the pot and even let everyone taste it. He took the opportunity to talk about the high-quality sugar cane nted in their vige and the quality of the cane sugar produced.
As he spoke, Wang Wng was stuck again.
Little Ah Yu took the opportunity to write a few words on his palm.
Wang Wng pped his forehead and hurriedly said, “By the way, the cane sugar we made can continue to be purified.”
“Purify?” The surrounding vigers were very puzzled.
In the crowd, Teacher Wan looked at Wang Wng and nodded. He whispered to Teacher Luo beside him, “Most vigers use brown sugar. Even the white sugar that they know is actually yellow sugar. The rich families in Wanning City use white sugar most of the time. There’s also red sugar. Could it be—”
Before he could finish speaking, he heard Wang Wng say, “Our sucrose skill can be used to make brown sugar. It can also be used to make yellow sugar, or even white sugar. Moreover, the cost is lower.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the vigers were excited.
The price of these sugars could be said to be worlds apart!
If the cane sugar workshop in their vige could really make white sugar, it would definitely be more profitable than nting high-quality food.
