Rebirth of farming for a living

"White sugar, very good." The emperor first expressed his approval: "I have eaten this vermicelli before. Is it made of sweet potatoes?"

It cannot be said that the Emperor of Vermicelli has eaten it. He has basically eaten and seen everything Li Qiuyan brought.

Not only have I eaten and seen them, but I’ve also bought quite a few.

Li Qiuyan couldn't complain anymore. You had already gone to Pingyuan Mansion for a private interview. Why didn't you tell me if there was any problem?

Do you have to come all the way here by yourself?

Is this stuff made from sweet potatoes, or was it given to popular science by Li Qiuyan?

Li Qiuyan's heart trembled silently when he remembered that he didn't hide his contempt when he explained the difference between vermicelli and vermicelli.

The emperor won't hold a grudge that much, right?

After taking a quiet look, Li Qiuyan quietly felt relieved when he saw that there was no unusual color on the emperor's face.

"Yes, Your Majesty. The vermicelli is made from mung beans, and the chili pepper can be used as seasoning..."

He didn't know if the emperor's private visit in disguise was hidden from others, so Li Qiuyan didn't dare to say more.

I just explained these objects one by one.

The emperor also followed the order of Li Qiuyan's words and inspected the things one by one.

Yes, these things were familiar to him.

But he called Li Qiuyan because he had something serious to say.

The emperor praised Li Qiuyan a few times, but he still praised Li Qiuyan for being smart and intelligent.

Li Qiuyan felt a little embarrassed.

Then he pondered for a moment and got down to business.

The emperor did not beat around the bush to Li Qiuyan and said directly: "White sugar does have many uses. I intend to promote white sugar. What do you think?"

What does Li Qiuyan think?

What could she think?

I can only say sincerely: "My maiden will cooperate fully."

I couldn't help but wonder in my heart, could it be that the emperor wanted to know how to make his own sugar in vain?

Alas, no matter how clear my mind is, I still feel a little reluctant to give up.

Although he had just said that white sugar is made from brown sugar, Li Qiuyan was confident that the ancients who did not know the principle of activated carbon would not be able to make white sugar for a while.

The golden hen that could lay eggs that I finally figured out just clucked away.

That's all, it can be considered a good thing to benefit the people.

Li Qiuyan's heart turned over and over again, but his face was still very respectful.

But the emperor is not that bad, and he has no intention of taking her for nothing.

He thought for a moment and then said: "Minqin, I am planning to build a sugar workshop for the Ministry of Works, and you will be in charge of it, okay?"

What?

I'm in charge?

Li Qiuyan was confused.

Do you want me to teach, or do you want me to be an official?

Although being an official is a good thing, if he is an official in the capital, Li Qiuyan really can't let go of those things in Pingyuan Mansion.

Think about the shops and workshops you opened.

This is no better than the distance from Fucheng to Qingyun Town.

It would take two months to go back and forth, and Li Qiuyan really didn't want to.

She didn't know yet, but she was overthinking it, so she hesitated for a long time before speaking: "Your Majesty, after I taught craftsmanship, I still want to return to my hometown..."

That was what the emperor originally thought, but when Li Qiuyan said this, he became narrow-minded: "You don't want to be in the capital? Is the capital not good?"

"My daughter doesn't want to stay in the capital, but that's not because the capital is bad." Li Qiuyan said honestly, "My daughter loves her family..."

Sure enough, sincerity is the eternal nirvana.

Li Qiuyan gave the reason of loving his family, and the emperor really didn't know what to say.

He stopped teasing Li Qiuyan: "Just teach the craftsmen. As for the reward, what do you want?"

What, a reward?

The emperor is really generous.

Li Qiuyan, who was mentally prepared to donate the prescription, was really pleasantly surprised.

"Can I mention it casually?"

Li Qiuyan forgot to be cautious and his eyes sparkled.

"Okay." The emperor laughed when he saw Li Qiuyan's appearance, and he was also curious about what Li Qiuyan would ask for.

"My only request is that the Emperor can allow me to continue making sugar in Pingyuan Mansion, and that he can favor us to do a better job in the sugar business..."

Li Qiuyan spoke softer and quieter, wondering if his request was too much.

In fact, most of my business relies on white sugar, so I can just donate it to the emperor. If I rely entirely on buying it in the future, it will be a bit unworthy.

Of course, she can also secretly use it.

But since it has been dedicated to the emperor, it is enough to be unknown. When making white sugar, precautions must be taken.

Li Qiuyan felt tired just thinking about it and thought of asking for a favor.

As for selling sugar, Li Qiuyan actually didn't have much hope, but there had to be room for bargaining!
