Chapter 129 Cake and Buffalo
Chapter 129 Cake and Buffalo
No matter how lonely Yu Zhenzhou was, Yang Lijun had elders and juniors around her, and her life was getting more and more comfortable. At the same time, she was also worrying about what birthday gift to give to Huang Mulin.
Since his four sons had to go to school, Huang Bo started running between the town and the village again, leaving Huang Mulin and He Hui Niang alone at home.
After the New Year, Yang Lijun came back and promoted a capable clerk to be the manager, and basically all the affairs of the embroidery shop were left to him.
She came to the backyard of the cafeteria every day. Yang Hui and others could not come every day, so only Yu Ze followed her every day as her personal bodyguard, while Old Wang stayed in the embroidery shop.
The four of them would play chess when they had nothing to do, either two people playing chess at a time, or watching two of them play. Their days were pretty leisurely.
At noon, Lao Wang would go to the canteen to pick up food and eat it, and then they would go to the canteen together to eat in the evening.
As more people came to eat, Huang Mulin had a new idea.
Turntable round table.
It is her habit to do something immediately after thinking of it.
On the second day, after Fang Zheng sent Huang Bo to Xiushan Village, he went to Hejia Village to take He Yian to the town.
Huang Mulin drew the design drawings last night. As soon as He Yian arrived, the two of them began to ponder the difficulties and feasibility of production.
The turntable round table is not difficult to make. He Yian looked at it for a while, asked some details, thought about it in his mind, and soon came to a conclusion.
"That's no problem. You can do it. I'll make a small table first and try it out. If it doesn't fit, I can improve it and make it into a big table."
"Okay." Huang Mulin added, "Uncle will think about how to make the table more beautiful so that we can sell it in the furniture workshop."
He Yian was happy, he had indeed thought of this.
"Okay, uncle will go back and think about it, and he will definitely make the table well."
Fang Zheng and He Yian had lunch before leaving.
Huang Mulin started thinking about the cake.
Eggs, soybean oil, sugar, and flour are relatively easy-to-find raw materials for making dairy-free cakes.
Today, Dong Lin received her message in advance. He went to the bakery to bake a batch of bread, and then returned to the cafeteria to learn how to make cakes from Huang Mulin.
Huang Mulin explained to Dong Lin in detail the methods he learned in the space. While he was demonstrating, He Hui Niang and Yang Lijun were watching and learning.
Of course, the task of beating the egg whites into hard peaks was given to Yu Ze. If there was no machine, someone with martial arts skills would be the best choice.
Huang Mulin thought that if the cake was released in the future, it would have to be sold in limited quantities each day, otherwise beating the egg whites every day would be exhausting.
Pour the prepared cake batter into a special cake mold and bake it in a high-temperature oven.
The cake takes longer to make than the bread. Dong Lin took the opportunity to ask a lot of questions that she didn't understand, and Huang Mulin answered them one by one.
About three quarters of an hour later, the aroma of the cake became stronger and stronger. Huang Mulin estimated that it was almost ready and asked Dong Lin to take out the cake.
It was roasted until slightly browned, and the aroma of egg mixed with sweetness immediately captured their sense of smell. It seemed as if liquid was flowing through their throats, and their brains received the message: I want to eat it.
“It seems to be quite successful.”
Huang Mulin commented.
She asked Dong Lin to shake it a few times, then knock it upside down, and use special tin clips to get all the cakes out and put them on a wooden tray.
When the cake fell, it bounced slightly and rolled into a pile, which was quite funny to watch.
Huang Mulin planned to make a batch of pure cakes first, without adding anything, to test the market feedback. Besides, he couldn't come up with a lot of new products in a few days, otherwise it would be bad to make diners too picky.
By the time Dong Lin had finished making all the cakes from the last mold, the cakes from the first mold had almost cooled down and were ready to be eaten.
Huang Mulin asked everyone to take one to try, including Deng Da and his wife, and the kitchen helper.
It is soft, delicate, slightly sweet and has a strong egg aroma. You can’t help but eat it bite by bite.
“This one is so soft and special.”
Yang Lijun praised it, saying that its softness exceeded her expectations.
“The specialty of the cake.”
Huang Mulin also thought it was delicious, and turned to Dong Lin and said, "No matter how many new products you make, the cake base should taste like this."
"clear."
Dong Lin nodded seriously and obeyed Huang Mulin's orders.
Huang Mulin was small, so one was enough for him. The others ate two or three, and Yu Ze ate five.
There were still a lot left, so she asked Dong Lin to pack them up and give them to Yu Ze to take to the embroidery shop to give to Yang Hui and others.
There is also some left that I will wait for my father and brothers to come back and give them to them to taste.
She thought that if she wanted to decorate flowers, she would still need milk.
There is nothing we can do about the black and white dairy cows, as they are not native cattle.
After falling asleep yesterday, she searched on the computer in her space and accidentally discovered that there is another kind of cow's milk that can be used, buffalo.
She looked up information related to buffaloes and compared them. In terms of the growth environment of buffaloes, the climate in the south where she lived met the requirements.
She had never noticed before that the oxen used for farming in the south are actually water buffaloes.
"Mother, are there any buffaloes for sale in town?"
"It should be there, what's wrong?"
"Really?"
Huang Mulin was delighted: "I want to find a buffalo to produce milk."
“Buffaloes produce milk?”
He Hui Niang and Yang Lijun looked at each other.
What is this girl trying to do?
"Yeah, milk is a good thing. It can be used to make bread, cakes, and cookies."
"You can also boil it and drink it directly. It can strengthen your body and is suitable for people of all ages."
It’s nothing special for business purposes, but my daughter said it can help improve health?
This makes it necessary to buy it.
Huang Mulin didn't know that in the future she would be required to drink a large glass of milk every day.
Yang Lijun was very concerned about this matter: "After lunch, let's go to the town market to have a look. If there is nothing, we will go to the county tomorrow to look for it. If there is still nothing, we will go to the provincial capital to look for it."
"it is good."
Huang Mulin thought that if he bought the mountain, he could not only build a farmhouse, a winery, an entertainment center, etc., but he could also build a farm at the foot of the mountain to raise buffaloes, so that a continuous supply of milk could be guaranteed.
Ah~ The more I think about it, the more I look forward to it.
After lunch, Huang Mulin took Yang Lijun to the market.
Unfortunately, there are no female buffaloes for sale in the market in Linhai Town.
Female buffaloes are usually kept to give birth and sell their calves, and they will be slaughtered when they die. They had no choice but to wait until tomorrow to try their luck in the county.
On the second day, they did not encounter any female buffaloes in Qiling County. All the calves were male. They asked people and were told that female cows were usually reserved in advance.
In most cases, a cow will only give birth to one calf per litter, so if you are unlucky, you may not encounter anyone selling a cow's calf for a whole year.
"Why don't we go to the capital city and have a look?"
Yang Lijun suggested.
It takes about ten to twelve days to get from Linhai Town to the provincial capital, which is enough to return before Huang Mulin’s birthday.
If they bought it, they would arrange for their men to send it back to Linhai Town, as their carriage would not be able to accommodate the calf.
In fact, you can try your luck in a nearby county, such as Bofeng County. Yang Lijun mainly wants to take the children on a long journey, travel around and broaden their horizons.
