Chapter 144: House Constructed

Gu Yundong could not understand their attitude, but she still tried her best to be friendly and tell them about his plan to buy his sugarcane.

When the Shi couple heard this, they secretly heaved a sigh of relief and asked her how much she wanted.

Gu Yundong had already seen the quantity of sugarcane in their house. It was not much.

Therefore…

“Sell them all to me if you can.”

The Shi couple was surprised, but it was naturally good that they could sell all the sugarcane. This was much easier than them painstakingly dragging the sugarcane to town or county to sell.

Gu Yundong still paid the market price. After paying, the Shi couple quickly harvested all the sugarcane and sent it to her.

Looking at the courtyard filled with sugarcane, Madam Dong was a little stunned.

When Gu Yundong said that she wanted to make sugar, she was even more shocked.

However, she could not say anything. While she was surprised, she still diligently helped her.

Gu Yundong knew how to refine sugar. During her internship in university, she had competed for the position of a television host’s assistant with her ability. The host was in charge of the program to search for some heritage skills that were about to disappear. Gu Yundong worked hard by her side. The host found it tiring and Gu Yundong had helped her with her homework.

Among them was the method of making sugar. She had personally made it with the craftsmen and would ask questions if she didn’t understand. Unfortunately, she had only tried it twice at most and wasn’t considered familiar with it.

Back then, she would record these steps in her notebook. Unfortunately, after the apocalypse, she did not have the time to bring that notebook out.

However, she still remembered the general method. The problem now was to experiment. She had to get familiar with the process and perfect it bit by bit.

She knew that people nowadays would add a kind of tree ash to refine the white sugar in the process of making sugar, but the kind given by the shopkeeper was definitely not refined like this.

Perhaps the white sugar refined after adding tree ash could only be seen in those rich families.

Gu Yundong had learned the “Yellow Water Method” of making sugar. She knew that this was a method that appeared during the Ming Dynasty. Uh, this world was different from the history she had learned before. This should not be considered changing history.

This method was to simmer the sugarcane after squeezing the juice. First, they would make black sugar according to the conventional method. Then, they would put the black sugar into a tile funnel to form a lump. Then, they would pour the yellow mud water into the funnel to produce a reaction. Then, they would obtain white sugar.

Gu Yundong brought everything she needed to the Zeng family’s backyard. Madam Dong knew that these skills could not be taught to outsiders, so she was very self-aware. After doing what she could, she usually did not go to the backyard.

Gu Yundong experimented, perfected, processed, and picked up the steps bit by bit.

Her family didn’t bother her. They even kept quiet and tried not to disturb her.

Shao Qingyuan had been here a few times, and he had always helped her do the work that required hard work.

Liu Wei had also been here. He seemed to have something urgent to discuss with Gu Yundong. But just as he reached the door, he was stopped by Shao Qingyuan.

Gu Yundong vaguely heard him mention the word “Young Master Tao”. However, she was very busy and quickly focused on her own matters.

After more than ten days, when Gu Yundong was still busy in the backyard, she was finally pulled out by Madam Dong.

Her house was already built.. The beam would be installed the day after tomorrow!!
