Does anyone know what 烧栲 is? I cannot find it in any of my dictionaries and Google is not particularly helpful either...

This seems to the correct translation. Apologies for asking in the first place. I just didn't expect that the original author would have mistyped the same character half a dozen times...

Incidently, Google gives around 2,900 results for 烧栲 so it seems like a rather common typo.

Notes to answerer
Asker: 烧栲 appears several times in the text I'm working with so it's a very consistent typo...
