Chapter 199: Pulling Food at Midnight
Chapter 199: Pulling Food at Midnight
"Mumu, our father has already decided on the candidate." Ji Shiyan came over and told Sumu.
"When are you coming?"
"My father asked me to ask you what you think. Is it convenient to schedule it tomorrow night?"
"Sure." He could come and fetch her at any time, but he didn't expect it to be so late at night.
"There is a lot of food, and it cannot be transported by just one or two vehicles. There are too many people during the day." It is better at night, less conspicuous and safer.
It was already night time. The moon was very bright these days and the road was very clear.
The people of the sumu stayed up all night waiting for the arrival of the convoy.
"My fellow countryman." The visitor saluted.
"It's you adults." It's easy to deal with these adults, as we have dealt with them so many times.
"Please follow me, everyone." Su Mu led the way in front, with rows of empty car convoys behind him.
They came to a warehouse. This warehouse was specially built when the house was built. People thought that his family would definitely have a lot of food, so this warehouse was built extra large.
"The granary of the local lord is indeed extraordinary." Several adults stroked their mustaches and looked at the granary which was obviously much taller and larger than ordinary granaries.
Su Mu led everyone in, "The food is all here."
"Then we'll weigh and load the truck."
A group of well-trained guards transported the grain to the carts one by one. Adults watched from the side and checked the loading conditions.
Su Mu was holding a large box of silver ingots and standing beside Ji Shiyan.
The grain was transported out in carts, and every two carts in the long convoy were followed by guards and provided with lighting protection.
"Xiang Jun, we are going to set off first to transport these grains back."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
It was already midnight and the village was quiet. There was no sound except for the faint sound of candle flames flickering.
No one knew that a convoy left the Su family and transported the grain to an unknown place.
"The food has been transported, we can go and rest now." Su Mu said.
"it is good."
It was already past noon the next day when Su Mu got up from the bed and changed into a light gauze dress.
I strolled over to the new school to take a look. Recently, many other villagers also wanted to send their children to school.
"The country gentleman is here?"
"Country Lord."
Many people greeted Su Mu when they saw her.
"Uncle, why are you here?" Those people were actually the villagers.
"The busy farming season is over now, so I came to take a look when I have nothing to do." It's nice to be able to help with some trivial matters, the uncle smiled naively.
Sumu chatted with several villagers for a while and then entered the college which was still under construction. The college had taken shape and each building was started at the same time to save time.
With this temperature and the workers still working, Sumu went over to give them a few words of advice, asking them to take a rest and avoid the heat, and that he would ask someone to make some cooling drinks for them when he returned.
After finding a villager and asking her to make a few pots of drinks and send them over, Sumu went home.
"The weather is getting hotter." Su Mu sighed when he got home.
"Mumu, the milk they sent will not last long in this hot weather." Wang said.
"Then let's make iced milk tea! We can also make some taro balls." Drinking iced milk tea in summer is simply the best, silky and cool.
"Taro?"
"Yes! Now we have purple potatoes and sweet potatoes, which can make taro balls of two colors."
Take out the cassava flour you bought. This flour is not easy to buy and few people take the trouble to make it into flour.
"First, wash and peel these purple potatoes and sweet potatoes."
Several people each had a pot, "Little sister, after peeling this, the inside is just like its name, purple!"
"Yes, this purple sweet potato is also delicious. Cut all of them into slices and steam them in a pot."
Steam the sweet potatoes and purple potatoes, add appropriate amount of sugar according to your taste, and mash them into a paste.
"Add an appropriate amount of starch and knead it into a non-sticky dough. The next step is very critical. Take a small half of the dough, put it into boiling water and cook it until it changes color. Take it out and mix it with the remaining dough and continue kneading. This way, the taro balls will be very elastic."
Continue kneading the dough until it is very smooth and not easy to crack.
"The dough can be rolled into long strips and cut into small pieces with a knife, or rolled into small balls." For convenience, Su Mu directly cut them into small cylinders with a knife.
Roll the taro balls evenly with flour to prevent them from sticking to each other.
"When the water is boiling, add the taro balls. When all the taro balls in the pot float to the surface, it means they are cooked and can be taken out."
The taro balls were put into the pot, and several pairs of eyes stared at the taro balls tumbling up and down in the pot.
"It's floating!"
Su Mu quickly picked up the colander and scooped out the taro balls, then put them into ice water. This way the taro balls taste better.
"Let's make some more milk tea."
Everyone was very familiar with the method of making milk tea, and it was soon out of the pot. In order to drink iced milk tea, Su Mu also put the milk tea into space to speed up the cooling time. After it became room temperature, ice cubes were added to make a cup of iced milk tea.
In the white porcelain bowl, there is light caramel-colored milk tea, with purple and yellow taro balls scooped on it.
He picked up the bowl and took a big sip, "It's delicious."
“The taro balls are springy and chewy, and really fragrant.”
Sumu poured a big bowl for Wangcai and 006, and the two little ones drank it happily.
"Mumu always makes delicious food. If I sell this, many people will definitely fight for it."
Su Mu also thought about selling this, but one of the big problems was that this milk was too rare. Ordinary people couldn't drink it. Only with the help of the emperor could one drink the milk regularly.
[Ding, host, Yuzu has mutated. ]
"Grapefruit?"
Su Mu entered the space and had a hard time searching again. Where was the mutated thing?
I saw something that was much smaller than a pomelo, but at least it was bigger than a tangerine.
"This pomelo tree can actually mutate into two different fruits."
You may say that this mutated fruit is useful, but actually it doesn’t have to be. But if you say that it is useless, it still has some uses and can be used in cooking and making drinks.
A fruit with pointy ends, lemon.
lemon:
I am sour and attractive, and I can beautify my skin, stimulate my appetite and strengthen my spleen. And the drinks I make are very popular!!
When Su Mu saw the lemon, his mouth began to drool and its taste immediately appeared in his mind.
Sweet and sour lemonade, boneless chicken feet, and all kinds of sour, spicy and appetizing foods can all be found with it.
Lemon is also a kind of fruit that grows on trees. Plant it first and wait for it to bear fruit.
Just when Su Mu planted the new fruits, a rumbling sound began to be heard in the space.
When Su Mu heard this familiar voice, he knew that the space must be upgraded again. Could it be that the seeds bought by the emperor were put to good use?
