"Shirley! You feel sorry for me now, but when the brown sugar is made, I promise you won't say that again in the future!"
There is no such concept as sugar in this world, so Shirley naturally doesn't know what sugar is.
But Narant knew that in his previous life, there were some weird uncles who used lollipops to abduct little lolita. He didn't believe that little lolita like Shirley could resist the temptation of brown sugar.
Moreover, after brown sugar comes out, the way of eating bread in this world will probably be broken by him, a time traveler.
Nalant liked the brown sugar steamed buns from his previous life very much. Once brown sugar is available, he can let Rose, the chef, try it.
In addition, now that brown sugar has come out, white sugar is not far behind.
With sugar, jam, etc., it’s not far away!
Even Nalant's own saliva was almost drooling as he thought about it.
"Sir, the juice in the last big pot seems to have become sticky. Can you take a look?"
About half an hour later, Vivian, who had been supervising the guards making brown sugar, suddenly spoke.
"Oh? Let me take a look!" Upon hearing this, Nalant immediately stood up from his chair and walked quickly to the eighth cauldron.
"Well, it's almost done. Shirley, hurry up and bring that wooden box!" At this time, the sugar cane juice in the eighth cauldron had become viscous, comparable to the cough syrup in his previous life, and Narant immediately
Give an order to Shirley.
After Shirley brought over the one-meter-square wooden box that looked like a drawer, Narant asked the guard to scoop the syrup into it.
After ladling the syrup, use a small shovel to push the syrup flat in the wooden box, and then wait for it to cool and solidify.
Time passed by, and Nalant, Vivian and Shirley stayed by the wooden box.
"Sir, are you okay? And the color of the brown sugar seems to have turned yellow, not red!"
At this time, Shirley still had no regrets from before. Smelling the indescribably alluring smell emanating from the wooden box, her saliva almost flowed out.
Although the name of brown sugar is brown sugar, in fact, the brown sugar squeezed from sugar cane is not really dark red, but reddish with yellow.
"It should be almost done!"
Narant reached out and pressed it to make sure that the brown sugar was finally completely solidified. Then he took a shovel and cut the brown sugar in the wooden box into small pieces like gold bars.
"Come on, Vivian, Shirley, you two take one!" Fang Wei scooped up two pieces of brown sugar and put them directly into the hands of the two women.
"Thank you for the gift!" Shirley and Vivian's eyes were full of these small pieces of brown sugar, and they immediately thanked them after taking them in their hands.
After the two women took it, Nalant immediately picked up a piece himself, and then put it into his mouth without hesitation and took a bite.
"Oh, that's what it tastes like! Haha, my brown sugar is a success!" The brown sugar boiled from sugar cane juice cannot be compared to the industrial brown sugar that cut corners in previous generations.
When the brown sugar entered his mouth, Nalant immediately felt like he was a child, mellow and sweet.
When Vivian and Shirley saw Nalant enjoying himself, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva while holding the brown sugar.
"You two should have a taste, too!" Nalant hadn't started eating yet, and she and she didn't dare to eat, so Nalant immediately ordered.
"Yes! Sir" with permission, the two girls immediately imitated Nalant and put brown sugar into their mouths.
"Wow!" The moment the brown sugar entered their mouths, both Vivian and Shirley were shocked, and then stood there with their eyes wide open. "Sir... Sir, this... this is too delicious!" Xue said.
Li's expression was the most exaggerated, her oversized eyes were as wide as snails, while Vivian kept pouting her small mouth to feel the sweetness in her mouth.
"Shirley, do you think brown sugar or sugar cane tastes better now?" Narant was not surprised when he saw this and asked Shirley with a smile.
"Brown sugar! Sir! Shirley likes to eat brown sugar!" Shirley did not hesitate.
"Haha, the delicious food is yet to come. Shirley, go and call your mother over now!"
"Okay, sir!" Hearing that the delicious food was still behind, Shirley quickly headed towards the inner castle without any delay.
After Shirley left, Nalant looked at Vivian again.
"Vivian, please help me draft a decree now to inform all the villagers in the Storm Territory that they can search for sugar cane in the bushes in the Storm Territory during their free time!"
"After finding sugar cane, let the villagers cut it down and bring it to the castle. Every three sugar canes will be rewarded with one copper plate!"
"By the way, in order to prevent some villagers from not knowing sugar cane, take some sugar cane and let the villagers compare it!"
The sugar cane has almost begun to mature, and the brown sugar has been successfully boiled. Next is the time for large-scale harvest production.
The population of the Storm Territory is too small, and there is not much farmland. As a time traveler, Nalant knows that farming food can only ensure a full stomach, but it cannot make a fortune quickly.
But if you really want to make money and develop the territory, you can only rely on trade to export goods and earn profits from other noble territories.
He believes that brown sugar will definitely become one of the pillar industries of Tulip Collar.
"Yes, sir!"
After giving instructions to Vivian, Rose, the particularly alluring chef, had already arrived in front of Nalant.
Although Nalant had made enough food and clothing by himself when he lived alone in his previous life, he didn't know much about Western baked bread.
However, Nalant only needed to give out ideas, and Rose quickly understood.
"Sir, are you saying that when baking bread, brown sugar and honey are usually brushed on the bread?" Rose held a piece of brown sugar in her hand and looked at the lord with surprise in her eyes.
"Yes, Rose, and today not only my white bread, but the brown bread for the servants and guards is also filled with brown sugar!" Nalant nodded.
He had only had the opportunity to taste honey bread in the past few days, which was produced by the bees that Shirley had tamed.
In previous lives, experts recommended eating less sweets, because eating too much can easily lead to obesity and increase the risk of various diseases.
But in this world, there's no need to worry. Most people don't even have enough to eat, let alone gain weight.
Moreover, sugar has another benefit, that is, it can increase people's happiness after consumption, so Narant plans to occasionally add such delicacies to his subordinates in the future.
"Yes, sir, I will try it now and praise you for your wisdom and generosity!" After hearing this, Rose immediately walked towards the castle with a few pieces of brown sugar.
She had already tasted brown sugar. As a chef, she was extremely surprised that her parents could invent this brown sugar that was sweeter than honey.
She can't wait to try the effect of using brown sugar to make bread, because after tasting such sweetness, she has a lot of new inspiration for baking delicious food in her mind.
…
When there was a cheerful atmosphere in the castle, as Nalant's order was issued, the entire people of the Storm Territory also became agitated.
The sugar cane residents have all seen it more or less. In the past, few people paid attention to this thin and short "small tree". At most, only some villagers in Doom Village knew that sugar cane is a delicious wild fruit.
However, things are different now. Their lord named this 'little tree' sugar cane, and also paid three sugar canes and one copper plate.
Foraging for sugar cane is not like cutting wood, and farming generally requires heavy physical effort, so even a child can play an adequate role.
Suddenly, everyone in the territory who had free time began to walk through the weeds in the forest.
