Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

Chapter 471 Sugarcane Bed



Chapter 471 Sugarcane Bed

When many Japanese confectioners returned home from school, they saw the neatly arranged sugarcanes in the yard and were surprised.

"Sister, sister, can we eat this sugarcane?" Many people shouted excitedly into the house.

"Why can't we eat it? Isn't this something to eat?" Xu Yuan walked out of the kitchen and said.

"Which one do you want to eat? I'll peel it for you." Xu Yuan said, picking up the machete placed aside and gesturing.

"Sister, can I give some to A Ming, Da Quan, A Hai, Yue Lai, and Xi Le?" Manyu counted on his fingers, fearing that he would miss any family.

"There is also Grandpa Tie's family and the Donglin family." Guozi added.

Xu Yuan curled his lips and said, "Just enjoy your meal. I've sent gifts to the families you mentioned."

Not only that, she also remembered everyone who came to support her last time.

The sugarcane has not been planted on a large scale this time, but the cultivation results of Xuyuan are very successful, and the growth and taste of the sugarcane are good.

Next, Xuyuan planned to take some sugarcane and try to make sugar.

……

After lunch, Xu Yuan went to Chen Dafu's house.

If you want to make sugar, you have to squeeze the juice out of the sugarcane, and you have to make convenient tools first.

And this tool is the pressing bed, also called the sugarcane bed.

Its appearance is no different from a bench. The bench surface is slightly tilted towards the front. The juicing area is round, and the periphery of the circle is the juice flow groove. An eagle-beak-sized water outlet is specially left at the front of the stool, and the outlet has a groove connected to the circular juicing groove.

There is a round juicing plate on it that matches the round juicing trough. Both ends of the plate are connected to juicing rods. The round juicing plate and the juicing rod are mostly carved from a piece of hardwood. One end is shorter and can be inserted into the cross bar of the pressing frame on the pressing bench, and the other end is longer. The juice is retained by using the principle of leverage. This part can be said to be the most important part, and this stick can be said to be the juicing rod.

It is also very easy to use. First, pick up the juicer board, put the food to be juiced in the original juicer trough, then lift the juicer rod and press it down hard, the squeezed juice will flow down to the eagle beak-sized water outlet.

It is much more refined than the method of using a large piece of wood, chiseling a flat surface, then chiseling a hole in the middle of the top of the wood and placing a crossbeam in it, and also pressing hard with the crossbeam, allowing the juice to flow down along the wood.

When Chen Dafu heard Xu Yuan's idea and the word "sugarcane bed" for the first time, he was still wondering, sugarcane is so precious, why do we need a special bed for it?

After hearing the explanation of the wish clearly, and taking out a blueprint to show to Chen Dafu, his small eyes lit up instantly.

"Yuan girl, isn't this just a bench? How can it be called a sugarcane bed?" Chen Dafu looked left and right at the rough outline drawn on the drawing. Some were big, some were small, and they didn't seem to have anything to do with a bed.

"It doesn't matter. It's just an alias anyway. You can call me whatever you want. To me, I'm just a tool for squeezing juice."

Xuyuan was just a tool that could appear in this era that she searched for from Xiaojiu's well-read data. As for why a stool was called a bed, she had no interest in exploring it.

"Uncle Chen, I need to know when you can finish it." Xu Yuan looked at Chen Dafu. The middle-aged man was obviously immersed in studying the drawings and did not hear what Xu Yuan asked for a while.

"Dad, Xu Yuan is asking you a question?" Chen Biyun knew as soon as he heard it that the tool Xu Yuan was going to get this time must be another useful thing. This was to bring business to his family again. Seeing that he was so obsessed, she pulled his father and reminded him.

"Ah, what, what's the matter?" Chen Dafu looked at it, and then began to sketch out the scene that was probably already in production in his mind. He was immersed in it, but he was suddenly pulled. His thoughts were interrupted and he asked in confusion.

"Dad, I want to ask you how many days it will take to complete it?" Chen Biyun sighed and repeated the questions she wanted to ask.

Xu Yuan curled the corners of his lips and looked at Chen Dafu.

"Well, about three days." Chen Dafu narrowed his eyes, thought for a while, and replied.

"Okay, just send it directly to my house when it's done, and I won't come to pick it up."

As for the money, Xu Yuan didn't give it and just waited to collect the dividends one day. This was the cooperation that she and Chen Dafu had agreed on before.

……

Not long after Xu Yuan left, Qiu Chunfen came back with Daquan.

Daquan walked while holding his mother's hand, wiping his tears. While wiping his tears, he was holding a broken slingshot in his hand. He was crying, and his clothes were covered with grass clippings and yellow mud. His hair was messy and he was covered in dust. He looked so pitiful.

Qiu Chunfen's face also looked very ugly and she was furious. She was also covered with grass debris and yellow mud.

It looks like it rolled down the ground.

"Mom, what happened to my brother? Why do you look so messy?" Chen Biyun hurried forward and patted the two of them.

"Oh, stop talking. It was this kid who wanted to shoot a big bird, but he shot a beehive instead. If I hadn't found it in time, he would have been stung by the bees. I didn't even have time to get the shepherd's purse I dug."

Qiu Chunfen sighed and said unhappily, stroking her still pounding heart, "Oh my god, we really had to roll and crawl, and finally rolled down the hillside before we were able to escape. Fortunately, the grass there was softer and there weren't many stones, so neither of them were seriously injured. It was a blessing."

"Mom, I'm sorry. I won't dare to do it again next time." Daquan said with sobs, his little face looking aggrieved.

"That's OK as long as you don't dare. I'm going to put away your slingshot. Don't even think about asking your father to make it for you again." Qiu Chunfen snatched the slingshot from Daquan's hand, dusted off the dirt on her body, and went into the house.

Just as he took a step, he turned to Chen Biyun and asked, "By the way, Biyun, where is your father?"

"Mom, Xuyuan has brought another business to our family, and my dad has gone out to look for wood." Speaking of this, Chen Biyun's face was full of joy, and she patted Daquan's head and replied.

"what?"

Qiu Chunfen paused and asked.

"Mom is something that can turn sugarcane into drinkable water." Chen Biyun summed it up in one sentence.

"Ah? Then it will become sweet sugarcane juice?" Daquan stopped crying after hearing this. He wiped away his tears and said excitedly based on his own understanding.

"Yeah. Brother is really smart, just like sugarcane juice." Chen Biyun praised him generously.

"Wow, that sounds great. When the time comes, maybe we can grow sugarcane and sell sugarcane juice." Qiu Chunfen fantasized, thinking of the sweet taste of sugarcane, which is what rich families love the most.
