Chapter 84
The sugar cane yields a large amount of sugar. Fifteen catties of sugar cane can produce one catty of brown sugar. The production process is simple and does not require complicated equipment.

Lu Zhifeng cut a large bundle in one go, about a hundred catties, according to the ratio, it can boil ten catties of brown sugar, and even if filtered and purified into white sugar, it would still weigh seven or eight catties.

When Jiang Chengwu was young, he also planted sugar cane, and boiled sugar for everyone to eat as snacks. When he saw this bundle of sugar cane, he laughed and asked, "Is that all for wild sugar cane?"

These sugarcanes are a variety of green sugarcane. They are thin and long. They don't look too sweet. When you tear them open and take a bite, they have enough sugar.

Lu Zhifeng smiled brightly, "Also, and, probably, I can still cut a few bundles."

To save some sugar, everyone has enough sugar for a year.

Jiang Chengwu immediately said: "We will go with you, and when the weather is good, we will all be cut back."

Jiang Si also wanted to follow, Shen Baoying said: "Just let your dad go with your grandpa."

Anyway, the island is not big, if there is danger, just shout, Jiang Si nodded and stayed.

Qin Shen also stayed, helping them and taking care of physical work.

To boil sugar, sugarcane needs to be squeezed into sugarcane juice. In ancient times, millstones were used. There is a large juicer in Jiangsi Space for this time.

She took it out from the space, and saw Shen Baoying in the kitchen startled, "You just conjured it up casually, what should I do if Xiao Shen finds out?"

Jiang Si coughed lightly, "Don't be afraid, just say it was found in the warehouse."

Shen Baoying suddenly realized, and used the juicer with peace of mind.

Eating raw sugarcane and drinking sugarcane juice are two completely different feelings. Niu Niu likes to drink sugarcane juice, but Jiang Si prefers the pleasure of biting sugarcane bite after bite.

There are two full barrels of sugarcane juice that need to be boiled in a pot.

As soon as Shen Baoying picked up the wooden ladle, Qin Shen asked, "Are you going to pour it into the pot?"

Shen Baoying nodded, and Qin Shen easily picked up the sugarcane juice in the wooden barrel and poured it into the pot.

The strong waist made Shen Baoying's eyes shine, and she blurted out: "Good waist!"

Jiang Si chuckled, causing Qin Shen to look at her several times.

Jiang Si covered her mouth and lowered her head guiltyly, she really has a good waist.

As the boiled syrup kept stirring, impurities bubbles gradually floated up. Shen Baoying said to Niu Niu: "This kind of foam affects the taste of sugar very much. We can skim it off with a wooden spoon."

Niuniu nodded obediently, remembering very seriously, because Lu Zhifeng told her that these are all survival skills that must be mastered in the last days.

The water in the pot continues to evaporate until it becomes thick.

Only then did Shen Baoying dip some brown sugar into cold water and said, "Look, when you dip it in cold water, the brown sugar will immediately solidify to the point where it can be used in pots and pans."

Niuniu looked at the somewhat dark brown sugar, and asked suspiciously, "Aunt Shen, don't we make white sugar?"

Shen Baoying smiled and said: "You want to learn how to make white sugar, and when your father and the others come back, Auntie will teach you."

After shoveling up all the brown sugar and letting it cool, Jiang Linhai and the others came back. In order to be able to eat sugarcane in the future, Jiang Linhai and the others specially picked some better sugarcane and reserved it for seeding.

Seeing the cooled brown sugar in the pot, everyone praised it one after another, and Shen Baoying led everyone to work again, until it was dark before processing all the sugar cane into brown sugar.

It could have been faster, but the kitchen doesn't have that big of a pot.

The first batch of brown sugar was completely cooled.

Shen Baoying used the cooled brown sugar to teach Niuniu how to make white sugar. In fact, the process is very simple, just need to prepare some activated carbon.

Niu Niu looked puzzled: "Use charcoal?"

"Well, this is based on the fact that the brown sugar has already been extracted. If the white sugar is extracted directly, it will be a little more complicated."

"But it's too late today, let's learn this first."

Niuniu was full of admiration, "Aunt Shen, you really know a lot."

Shen Baoying laughed, "I'm messing around at home for nothing."

Add water to the brown sugar, ignite it to melt it, add the appropriate proportion of activated carbon, filter the turbid liquid with gauze while it is hot, and you will get a colorless liquid.

Then transfer it to a steamer, cook a quarter of the solution, and then take it out to cool naturally, and you will get white white sugar.

Although the process is simple, it takes a long time and requires patience.

It was not until the next morning that everyone saw that the crystal clear white sugar had successfully condensed.

Shen Baoying used fresh white sugar to make sweet and sour fish. Lu Zhifeng picked up the cover that he picked up yesterday, and took it back today. He caught two rabbits and mice, Shen Baoying peeled off the skin, and made pineapple glutinous rice meat.

It's winter soon, the sun is still on the island, but the temperature has dropped a lot.

It will be very cold to spend the winter on board, and to maintain the temperature in the cabin, the fuel consumption will be even greater.

After finding a source of water on the island, everyone thought about building a small house for the winter before winter came.

Burning a kang like the Northeast is warm and saves materials.

Jiang Linhai is a construction contractor. He is best at repairing houses. Jiang Si draws the blueprints. He can know how to repair them with a few glances, and he also knows how to make materials on the island.

Jiang Linhai said to Jiang Si: "It is too strenuous for us to excavate the stones on the island. In the small fishing village before, there are many discarded bricks and stones that can be used. We can just pick them up and use them. "

There are building materials in Jiangsi Space, but not many. If you want to move out of the temporary residence on the island, then it will be useless in the future.

Jiang Si agreed to Jiang Linhai's suggestion, and took everyone back to the small fishing village to pick up bricks and stones in a small cart.

After several carts of bricks and stones were delivered to the yacht, a dozen people suddenly appeared in the small fishing village.

Five of these dozens of people, Qin Shen smelled a familiar smell, they were the people who wanted to snatch their yacht before.

Jiang Si hurriedly let everyone board the yacht.

As soon as the yacht was started, the dozen or so people chased to the shore, and five of them still held guns in their hands, and shouted to Jiang Si and the others: "Get off the boat! Get off the boat!"

How could Jiang Si get off the boat, but instead drove the boat fast.

The people on the bank were furious and shot at them without hesitation.

Jiang Linhai frowned and asked Jiang Si: "Can we fight back?"

Jiang Si shook his head: "Forget it, to avoid trouble."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Zhifeng rushed up to them and asked anxiously, "Have you seen Niuniu? Niuniu is gone!"

"Niu Niu disappeared? Wasn't she still on the boat just now?" Shen Baoying said with a look of shock.

Lu Zhifeng got angry and said: "I searched the whole ship but didn't find her, did she get off the ship and not come up?"

Shen Baoying was in charge of looking after Niu Niu. Niu Niu was missing, so she had a great responsibility. She immediately remembered, "Niu Niu said that she found a sugarcane field. She must have gone to cut sugarcane, right?"
