Chapter 176: The Idea of Maltose
Fang Xu, who was sitting in the teahouse, looked at Lao Wu beside him with a strange face, after all, Lao Wu's face was a little funny now.
Why is this so? Naturally, the shopkeeper served a pot of strong tea.
Fang Xu himself also planned to put some of the sucrose he had brought with him, but Lao Wu was a little hungry and thirsty.
After all, there is no way to do this, just ask who is carrying so many things and walking such a long distance.
It's good to die or live if you're not thirsty now, right?! Fortunately, Lao Wu is still a practitioner.
But practicing a family doesn't mean that you don't get wet, right?! It's just that Lao Wu poured himself a full cup without thinking about it, and drank it all by himself.
This really stunned Fang Xu, after all, Fang Xu really didn't expect Lao Wu to be so hungry now.
And the moment Lao Wu drank it all, Lao Wu's face instantly turned bitter gourd color.
You must understand that the current teahouse of Daqin is not the same as the tea that Fang Xu drank in the previous life, but it is very bitter and bitter.
Ordinary people don't want to come here at all, why?!
This is clearly a matter of spending money to find guilt, but it has slowly become a place for many upper-class sons and brothers to talk.
After all, if you choose to go to the land of fireworks if you have nothing to do, then how will outsiders see you?!
Most of the children of these families are clean and self-conscious, especially the descendants.
Of course, if Murong Fu was such a strange thing, Fang Xu really saw it for the first time.
At least in Fang Xu's opinion, whether it was Zhuge Jun or Shangguan Lian later, they all reflected the temperament and conduct that a child of a family should have.
"What is this?! Why is it so bitter?! Lao Wu stuck out his tongue and chattered with some sinful thoughts, while Fang Xu couldn't cry or laugh.
But I didn't plan to let Lao Wu stick out his tongue all the time, what kind of system is this?!
Then he threw a small piece of sucrose in his arms into Lao Wu's mouth, and after feeling the sweetness of sucrose, Lao Wu was relieved.
Sucrose is completely different from other sugars, and sucrose is completely chewable.
That is, it was a little similar to maltose and the like, and Fang Xu's eyes suddenly lit up.
This method of refining cane sugar is indeed very simple, but it is not grown everywhere with sugar cane.
After all, the people of Daqin, whether they are nobles or commoners, still don't have a few about whether sugarcane can be eaten.
And with Fang Xu's previous leadership, Lao Wu and other soldiers also felt the delicious taste of sugarcane.
It's just a little troublesome to eat, but for this sweet taste, Lao Wu and other soldiers really have an endless aftertaste.
But Lao Wu and the others were more inclined to the sucrose in Fang Xu's arms than these sugarcanes.
Why is this happening?! Naturally, in the eyes of Lao Wu and other soldiers, this sugarcane is really troublesome to eat.
Especially if you can't chew and swallow it yet, Fang Xu had warned Lao Wu before, and they could spit it out as long as they chewed it twice.
Although this may not be too polite, Lao Wu and the others are all rough men who are used to staying outside the plug, so naturally they don't have anything.
But the question didn't just appear on this, Fang Xu was really curious, could it be that Lao Wu and the others accidentally hit their heads when they were outside the plug or what?!
I obviously said that I couldn't swallow it, but Lao Wu still habitually swallowed it when they ate it.
Fang Xu who looked at it felt that his throat and eyes were a little painful, right?! I even wonder how Lao Wu did it?!
Anyway, if it were yourself, it would be absolutely impossible to do it to this extent.
This also caused Lao Wu and the others to prefer to taste the ready-made sucrose in Fang Xu's arms, and in Fang Xu's opinion, this sucrose can also be regarded as a way to make a fortune.
After all, this sweetness is completely different from the sweetness of ordinary fruits, and it is indeed very addictive.
However, the growth period of this sugarcane is a little too long, and if it is really regarded as the main channel for making a fortune, cane sugar is really regarded as the main channel for making a fortune.
Of course, this is not possible, after all, it is easy to have a shortage of supply.
And it was just a temporary relief for the current urgency, but the moment Fang Xu chewed the sucrose in his mouth at the moment.
In other words, I thought of maltose, which is similar to sucrose, and what is the most important thing?!
Naturally, the two major raw materials of maltose are also just available in Daqin, and they can be tasted by both nobles and ordinary people.
In his previous life, when Fang Xu was fine, he habitually made some small snacks by himself, and maltose was naturally a favorite when he was a child.
Why?! Of course, maltose itself has many benefits.
Maltose is warm, non-toxic, enters the lung meridian, has the effect of moistening the lungs and relieving cough, and mainly treats symptoms such as qi deficiency and cough.
Moreover, maltose is sweet, warm and non-toxic. into the stomach meridian. It has the effect of replenishing deficiency and strengthening the spleen, nourishing and strengthening. It is mainly used to treat symptoms such as stomach cold and abdominal pain.
Of course, the most important thing is that maltose can also have news to relieve constipation, so you think it's cost-effective, right?!
The two major raw materials of maltose are also wheat and glutinous rice on the table of the people of Daqin, and the manufacturing method is also simple.
This made Fang Xu laugh uncontrollably, even more delicious than eating sucrose.
Isn't that how it is?! Especially in Fang Xu's opinion, if he has mastered this simple way of refining maltose.
So it completely changed the food culture of the entire Daqin, okay?! After all, Fang Xu had discovered that the entire Great Qin was also accustomed to using two methods: stewing and steaming.
Previously, Fang Xu was in the imperial dining room, but he simply copied a few side dishes with lard, and he could see how effective it was.
Fang Xu really didn't expect that he would change the customs of the entire Great Qin in this way.
Of course, the more important thing now is to be able to use these to seek some benefits for Qin Suwen, this is the most important thing, right?!
After all, to what extent is the Great Qin treasury empty now, isn't it clear to Fang Xu himself?!
This also accelerated the plan in Fang Xu's heart, and it could only be said that Fang Xu really didn't expect that what he was going to do now would be such a crazy thing.
Originally, Fang Xu was planning to honestly eat and wait for death, but who knew that so many unexpected things had happened?! These are also things that Fang Xu doesn't want to see, and of course he can't change them.
