Rebirth of farming for a living

Chapter 887 Explaining Sugar



It sounded familiar, but Li Qiuyan didn't dare to think too much about it.

Li Qiuyan firmly kept in mind the rule of not facing Tianyan directly.

Therefore, he did not dare to raise his head even if he died.

After hearing the shouting, he stood up respectfully, crossed his hands and stood aside with his eyebrows lowered.

The emperor was unexpectedly approachable: "Give me a seat."

Hey, can I still get a seat?

Li Qiuyan thanked the eunuch who brought the chair and sat down shakily, with only a third of the chair on his butt.

"Now, can we talk properly?"

The emperor's voice was filled with laughter.

If I say it just sounds a bit familiar.

Now, Li Qiuyan felt extremely familiar.

"Xiangjun, please have some tea."

Someone poured hot tea again, and Li Qiuyan subconsciously took it. When she looked up, she almost lost the teacup.

Li Qiuyan knows this eunuch!

It was the servant of that strange pair of masters and servants that he had met in Fucheng!

If you put it this way, the person sitting on it...

Li Qiuyan didn't care about that much anymore, and looked up quietly, "Oh my God."

Isn't the man sitting above, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, the master who doesn't know anything and wants to ask questions?

At this time, the emperor not only had a smile in his voice, but also in his eyes: "I don't think I am smart, why did I just react?"

Oops, Li Qiuyan almost knelt down.

What happened to this, tell me, the emperor’s private visit incognito happened to me?

Li Qiuyan was dizzy, but his mind was spinning rapidly. He hadn't done anything to offend the emperor, had he?

In addition to being a little narcissistic, I put some advertisements for my store.

There should be nothing else.

The emperor looked at Li Qiuyan, smiled and shook his head: "Don't be nervous, I came to you because I want to talk about sugar."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Li Qiuyan put down the tea cup politely and waited for the emperor to elaborate.

After all, the emperor is the emperor, and he will not take the initiative to tell everything about his thoughts: "Did you make this sugar?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Still this respectful answer.

However, this was not what the emperor wanted to hear: "Tell me in detail, how did you come up with the idea of ​​making sugar, and how did you make it?"

Li Qiuyan's heart trembled, the main event was coming.

She had already guessed the reason why the emperor summoned her, so she had naturally gone through the matter in her mind many times.

Now it sounds like it really happened: "...I once heard an old man say that a brown sugar workshop accidentally caught fire and turned into ruins. When the workshop was being cleaned, there were only rubble everywhere. The jar where brown sugar was previously stored was piled with charred wood... I didn't want to waste it, so I opened it and found that all the brown sugar inside had turned into white..."

"My daughter is very curious and has tried many times. The red candy can really turn from red to white..."

Li Qiuyan narrated the story that he had compiled long ago, and the emperor was entranced as he listened: "It's really smart to be able to make a story come true."

There was a lot of admiration in the emperor's words, and Li Qiuyan was no longer so nervous.

He was still modest: "I tried many times and wasted a lot of things. Fortunately, I finally made it. I even brought some for the emperor..."

While Li Qiuyan was talking, someone presented the inspected things that Li Qiuyan had brought forward.

The emperor has seen sugar before.

However, I still licked the white sugar in the jade plate to save my face.

The white sugar and the jade plate contrasted with each other, crystal clear as snow, and the emperor was in a very wonderful mood.

Also, it’s not just white sugar.

There are also chili peppers, mountain products, vermicelli, etc.

These were brought specially by Li Qiuyan to present to the emperor.

Of course, she wasn't that stingy either.

It brought quite a lot.

But you can't just hand over the big sack, right?

They all just took a little bit on a small plate and brought it up.

"It's a pity that the production method is very complicated and there is a lot of waste. Therefore, sugar is expensive, but it tastes sweet and can be eaten in more diverse ways..."

Not knowing what the emperor was doing, Li Qiuyan lowered his head and did not forget to explain the selling price.

It's actually not bad.

When making white sugar before, two pounds of brown sugar yielded one pound.

Nowadays, the technology is becoming more and more sophisticated, and only about one pound of brown sugar can be used to produce one pound of white sugar.

Of course, Li Qiuyan would not take the initiative to say this.
