"Chang Xia, are you making maple syrup?"

Shen Rong's low and deep voice approached from far away.

With his back facing the setting sun, he walked towards the animal den step by step. Smelling the sweet caramel scent from the night breeze, Shen Rong couldn't help but licked the corner of his mouth.

"I'll try to boil it to see if it works." Chang Xia stirred the wooden spoon, watching the sap in the clay pot boil. As the water evaporates, the sap gradually thickens, "This can't be called maple syrup, it should be maple syrup. Maple syrup, we need to continue to boil."

Chang Xia didn't dare to burn too much fire.

Clay pots are not easy to control the temperature.

Fortunately, she didn't pursue the taste of maple syrup, she just wanted to be able to drink it.

In this case, just be careful not to burn it.

As he spoke, Chang Xia took a wooden chopstick from the side and put it into the clay pot, stirring it gently, round and round.

Soon, the wooden chopsticks were covered with thick maple syrup. Chang Xia took out the wooden chopsticks and handed them to Shen Rong, and said, "Shen Rong, do you want to try it?"

"Okay." Shen Rong smiled.

Lowering his head, he opened his mouth and bit down on Chang Xia's hand.

Soft and long.

Chewing lightly, a sticky caramel sweetness exploded in your mouth. It is completely different from the cane sugar he ate in Xilu, and it is also different from honey. This is the unique taste of maple syrup, soft and smooth.

"delicious."

"The tribal people will love it."

Shen Rong rarely sighed, showing a satisfied expression.

Hearing Shen Rong's admiration, Chang Xia was extremely happy.

"Nanfeng said that the tribe made a lot of round wooden barrels, is it true?" Chang Xia stuffed the wooden chopsticks to Shen Rong and asked him to eat by himself. He grabbed another wooden chopstick and put it in the clay pot to stir. There is no container for maple syrup at home, so Chang Xia decided to wrap the maple syrup directly with wooden chopsticks and make small balls like lollipops.

The maple syrup at the moment is somewhat similar to maltose.

Shen Rong nodded and said: "Really. The roots and the elders want to collect all the sap of the red maple tree in Hongye Ridge as much as possible. After all, waiting for another year is too difficult."

They have tasted the sap of the red maple.

Who is willing to let go?

"How many people does the tribe plan to send to Hongye Ridge tonight?" Chang Xia asked again.

"No limit."

"What--"

"You heard me right, the tribe does not limit the number of people who can go to Hongye Ridge."

After Chang Xia listened, he touched his forehead.

Depend on--

In terms of madness, she is far less than one ten-thousandth of the tribe.

Just as Chang Xia wanted to harvest the sap of the red maple trees in Hongye Ridge day and night, the tribe dared to let all Luo do it overnight. No wonder Gen said that before the rainy season, the tribe could live in cave dwellings.

This stock is fierce and intimidating.

"It seems...tonight the tribe plans to go to Hongye Ridge to collect the sap of the maple tree. They will be active at night, so they don't have to worry about delaying the construction of the kiln during the day." Chang Xia nodded slightly, and said: "Shen Rong, you go to the tribe, How's the rebuild going on there?"

"It's crazy!" The corner of Shen Rong's mouth twitched, and he spit out three words.

Chang Xia: (⊙o⊙)...

"The tribe has demolished many animal nests, and the whole tribe looks completely different." Shen Rong said with emotion. He really admired the courage of Gen and the elders, decided to build a kiln, and abandoned the animal den without hesitation. Obviously, they were confident that the tribe would live in the cave before the rainy season.

"..." Chang Xia silently gave a thumbs up towards the tribe.

The two barrels of red maple sap were not full, and each barrel was about twenty or thirty catties. After making dozens of maple syrup lollipops, Shen Rong made a stick out of thatch, and inserted the wooden chopsticks coated in maple syrup into it.

Don't look, it looks like candied haws.

"It looks more delicious." Shen Rong stood aside and watched Chang Xia put the wooden chopsticks on the thatched stick, and licked the corner of his mouth. Looking at the maple syrup lollipops of different sizes, I want to eat them, and I feel like I can eat several more.

"Do you want more?" Chang Xia asked.

Shen Rong shook his head,

Said: "Save it for the tribe cubs."

He ate one and that was enough.

Besides, when I go to Hongye Ridge to collect red maple sap tonight, I will come back. Let Chang Xia boil it into maple syrup, and it's never too late to eat it.

"Okay." Chang Xia smiled, and stood the thatched stick filled with maple syrup lollipops next to the animal nest, and sent them to the cubs when he went to the tribe tomorrow.

Smelling the strong caramel sweetness, the two sat at the long table and ate dinner.

Chatting about going to Hongye Ridge at night.

Thinking about harvesting the sap of the red maple tree, the two ate quickly.

Just after eating, the south wind's shouts came from the foot of the hillside.

However, the tribe came out of a large group of people. Everyone carried two big rattan baskets, and there were four round wooden barrels in each rattan basket. The torches are stacked on top of the round wooden barrels, and at a glance, there are quite a lot of them.

It looks like it wants to clean up the sap of the red maple tree in Hongyeling.

It was not dark, and a mighty group of people went straight to Hongye Ridge.

"Chang Xia, what do you eat at night? It smells so sweet, what did you steal?" Nanfeng sniffed his nose, sniffing closely at Chang Xia.

On the side, Yadong wished he could lie on Shen Rong's back.

Like Nanfeng, he kept asking questions.

The corner of Shen Rong's mouth twitched, he stretched out his hand, and patted Yadong's head away.

"I made some maple syrup with the leftover red maple tree sap. I didn't have any molds or containers for the syrup. I rolled the maple syrup into lollipops with wooden chopsticks." Chang Xia said: "There are probably dozens of them. One, put it in the animal den. I plan to bring it to the tribal cubs to taste tomorrow, if you want to eat... I will make it for you when I harvest the red maple tree sap tonight."

The number of maple syrup lollipops is limited, and Chang Xia didn't bring them.

Too many people, not enough points.

So she didn't want to bring maple syrup lollipops in the first place.

Not far away, the clansmen all pricked up their ears and listened.

Listening to Chang Xia making maple syrup lollipops with red maple sap, each of them swallowed desperately. No one asked Chang Xia to taste the maple syrup lollipops. After all, Chang Xia said that the dozens of maple syrup lollipops were reserved for the tribe beast cubs.

They want to eat. After harvesting the red maple sap tonight, Chang Xia will naturally teach the tribe to make maple syrup. Thinking about it, the clansmen wished they could rush to Hongye Ridge immediately to do a big job.

"Chang Xia, don't forget... and me."

"Yes, and us."

In an instant, Yadong Kongshan and others came over one after another.

Produced by Changxia, it must be a high-quality product.

Recently, there are various gourmet recipes provided by Chang Xia, and the tribal food has improved several levels.

One by one is not far from gaining weight.

before dark.

A group of hundreds of people successfully arrived at Hongye Ridge.

Root divided the team into groups of 20, and each group assigned one person to patrol. It is important to harvest red maple sap to ensure that it will not be attacked by wild animals, and personal safety is equally important.

Each group arranged one person to learn how to harvest red maple sap with Chang Xia Shen Rong, learned to disperse, and each went to the red maple tree that had been assigned to the root, and began to harvest red maple sap. Needless to say, this arrangement went very smoothly.

Hundreds of people started to move in an orderly manner, and soon scattered in every corner of Hongye Ridge.

When it is dark, the torches illuminate the whole Hongye Ridge brightly, just like daytime.
