The county magistrate's daughter only wants to farm
Chapter 178 Peanuts
The steaming rapeseed is placed into a mold lined with rice straw, compacted and tied tightly.
Soon, ten bran cakes were made.
Put the bran cake into the oil press and adjust the position of the clamping plate inside.
"Okay, let's do it!"
Song Ruorou and Jun Lan stood on both sides of the wood, supporting the bottom of the wood with their left hands and holding the rope above with their right hands.
He pushed forward with both hands, and the hanging wood rushed forward due to inertia and hit the oil press with a thud.
The wood bounced back, and when it hit the oil press again, another person pushed the wood forward with force.
Back and forth, the two men took turns pushing the wood to hit the oil press.
After hitting it more than a dozen times, the square tube looking at the oil outlet shouted excitedly: "Oil is coming out! Oil is coming out! Lots of oil!"
I saw a lot of oil starting to come out from under the bran cake. The yellow rapeseed oil dripped into the oil tank of the oil press, gathered into a thin stream, flowed out from the oil outlet, and slowly flowed into the oil barrel.
Gu Yin was also very excited as she watched the increasing amount of oil in the barrel. Looking at the oil output, it was stable!
After squeezing out half a barrel of oil, Gu Yin asked Manager Fang to filter the oil and use it to cook a few dishes to try.
Manager Fang nodded repeatedly in excitement.
At this time, Song Ruorou and Jun Lan also stopped, and were replaced by two hired strong men who continued to swing wood to squeeze oil.
They didn't have to wait long before the meal prepared by Manager Fang was ready.
In a simple kitchen, on a simple square table.
There was a plate of stir-fried Chinese cabbage, a serving of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and stir-fried pork belly with garlic sprouts, three simple dishes.
Gu Yin was the first to use her chopsticks and picked up a piece of vegetable.
"How is it? Is there any strange taste?" Song Ruorou stared at Gu Yin, observing her expression. As long as Gu Yin frowned, she would decide not to try it!
However, Gu Yin looked calm and she didn't notice anything.
"What strange taste could there be? It's just ordinary vegetables, but they're fried a bit too much." Gu Yin was familiar with rapeseed oil, so she didn't taste anything special.
If she were to ask, lard is the best choice for cooking! Delicious!
"Really?" Song Ruorou confirmed again.
"Would you like to try it?" Gu Yin directly picked up a piece of vegetable and stuffed it into her mouth, blocking her chattering mouth.
Song Ruorou suddenly had a piece of vegetable stuffed into her mouth, and she subconsciously closed her eyes and started chewing.
Once, twice, Song Ruorou suddenly opened her eyes and said in surprise: "There is really no strange smell! I thought it would be bitter."
Ye Ningxin, who was standing by, also picked up a piece of green vegetable and chewed it slowly. She nodded in agreement, "It really doesn't have any peculiar smell. In fact, it's a little more refreshing than lard."
"That's the thing about rapeseed oil. It doesn't have any fragrance. It would be better if it was peanut oil. That's what it smells like!"
"Peanut oil?" Jun Lan suddenly interrupted.
Gu Yin shuddered, and she seemed to have stuttered.
"Hehe...nothing." Gu Yin smiled awkwardly, trying to get away with it.
However, Jun Lan was not someone who could be easily deceived. He just looked at Gu Yin quietly, as if he could see through her soul.
Gu Yin felt uncomfortable when he looked at her, so she just threw in the towel and said, "Peanuts are peanuts. They can also be used to make oil, and the oil yield is even higher than rapeseed oil."
"What do peanuts look like? Where can you find them?"
"You won't know what it looks like even if I tell you. As for where to find it, you may never have the chance to see it in this life." At this point, Gu Leyue turned to him. Who told him to be so smart? She just let the cat out of the bag and was caught.
But what's the use of being smart? There are no peanuts in Daji Dynasty.
Although it’s a bit of a pity, there’s nothing we can do about it. Who told the system not to give it to us?
"Since you've seen it, how come you don't have a chance..." Jun Lan said anxiously, but when he thought of Gu Yin's ability to transform things out of thin air, he paused.
Is there no way for her to transform?
Thinking of this, Jun Lan suddenly calmed down: "This is a pity..."
Gu Yin sensed his change in mood and raised her eyebrows: "Aren't you disappointed?"
Jun Lan smiled faintly and said, "A little bit, but having this rapeseed oil is already very good."
As Gu Yin just said, rapeseed oil and peanut oil are only different in taste, but both can be used for cooking, so rapeseed oil is enough.
"You are open-minded."
Jun Lan continued to smile and didn't want to ask her too much, so as not to offend her.
He hoped that one day he would be able to gain his trust and tell him secrets.
"What are you two talking about? What's there to be careless about? Can something that doesn't exist appear out of thin air?" Song Ruorou rolled her eyes at the two of them.
After hearing this, Gu Yin and Jun Lan were both stunned, but they adjusted themselves in an instant.
Gu Yin thought that she really didn't have this ability, but the system might not be the same.
Gu Yin subconsciously glanced at the system panel and was shocked.
This, this system...
Are they being monitored all the time?
I saw a large sack of peanuts on the system panel!
Gu Yin:!!!
This system should not be hers, but Jun Lan's, otherwise why would it be so biased towards him!
She had just said that he would never have the chance to meet Peanut in his life, but this instantly slapped her in the face.
Jun Lan noticed Gu Yin's momentary stiffness and thought that she had been exposed by Song Ruorou.
Glancing at Song Ruorou, she said, "Don't talk while eating. Why are you still talking so much while eating?"
Song Ruorou widened her innocent eyes: "No way! Cousin, why are you so fierce all of a sudden? What did I say wrong?"
She was just making a casual complaint. Did she break any laws?
"No, just eat quickly." Jun Lan put his fist to his lips.
"No, I've tried all of these, they taste good!"
Ye Ningxin also put down her chopsticks and said with emotion: "I didn't expect that rapeseed could be used to extract oil. How did you come up with that, Ayin?"
"Haha... It was just a sudden idea. I didn't expect it to work." She couldn't say that this was very common in later generations, so she simply changed the subject, "Do you still want to eat? If not, let's go."
The goal had been achieved and they had verified the oil extraction process, so they did not plan to stay any longer.
"Miss, what should we do with the remaining rapeseed..." asked Manager Fang.
This time they only brought 100 kilograms for experimentation, and the rest have been dried and stored on the farm.
Gu Yin looked at Jun Lan. She had previously promised to give the seeds to Jun Lan for planting.
"I'll send someone to get it tomorrow." Jun Lan said.
Gu Yin nodded and looked at Manager Fang: "We can keep some for the manor, and give the rest to them tomorrow."
"Okay." Manager Fang responded respectfully.
Just as Gu Yin was about to leave, Manager Fang called her back, "Miss, there is one more thing."
"what's up?"
"Xu Youliang asked me to tell Miss that the winter melon and the rootstock seedlings have grown well, and asked Miss when she can go and give us instructions."
"Then tomorrow."
