Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

in the dining room,
Su Yu cooked a table full of dishes.

Respecting the elders, Old Man Chen and Aunt Liu sat at the table.

Lao Chen's aunt's surname is Liu.

"Young master Su, you are good at cooking. The dishes I have cooked for decades are not one-thousandth as good as yours."

The dishes made by Su Yu are full of color, fragrance, and old man Chen is very shocked.

Unexpectedly, at such a young age, Su Yu not only became the leader of everyone, but also cooked well.

"Brother Su's cooking is delicious."

Chang Le and Xiao Sizi were hungry and wanted to move their chopsticks quickly.

"Aye, my son can do everything, he is omnipotent."

Old Chen laughed.

Su Yu said with a smile: "Today is the day when uncle and aunt's family reunite, let's have a toast together."

Everyone raised their glasses and made a toast.

hiss.
"Good wine."

Old man Chen has never drank such a good wine.

Chen Yuan did drink it once, it was Xie Shan's whim and rewarded Chen Yuan with a glass of wine.

"Is this Zuitang? I've had a drink."

"That was given to me by Sect Master Xie a few years ago."

Chen Yuan said.

Old Chen felt sad when he heard that, and said, "Brother, don't call him Sect Master Xie, you are no longer his servant."

"This Zuitang is made by our young master, you can drink as much as you want."

Su Yu turned around and said, "Bring more jars of wine over here."

The men in the village immediately brought several jars of wine over.

"Come on, Chen Yuan, drink to your heart's content, as long as you have enough."

Su Yu laughed.

Chen Yuan took it, picked up the jar and drank it.

Old Chen was so frightened that he quickly stopped him and said, "Don't drink like this, this wine is very strong, it can make people drunk."

Chen Yuan laughed loudly: "Happy."

Li Shimin said with a smile: "Chen Yuan is also a man of temperament."

"Shopkeeper, to be honest, I'm in Xiejiazhuang just to save my life."

"I have been their slave for more than ten years, how can I be as happy as I am today."

Chen Yuan said.

Li Shimin patted Chen Yuan on the shoulder and said with a smile, "That's a thing of the past. Starting from today, you are with my brother, and the good days have just begun."

Li Shimin laughed in his heart and said: You silly boy is really blessed to be able to follow Su Yu.

Enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future.

"Yes, I'll know when I see brother."

Chen Yuan laughed.

"Uncle and aunt, please move your chopsticks first, we are waiting."

Chang Le and Xiao Sizi laughed and said.

"Okay, I almost forgot."

Old Man Chen and Aunt Liu picked up the chopsticks at the same time and picked up a piece of meat.

Changle and Xiao Sizi immediately followed suit.

A table of dishes was quickly swept away.

Chen Yuan said suddenly: "Young Master Su, when I came down from the mountain just now, that fellow Xie Shan asked me to keep an eye on this side and report the situation to him at any time."

"Xie Shan is a scheming man, you have to be careful, don't fall into his tricks."

"Anyone he schemes against will not escape."

In Xiejiazhuang for more than ten years, Chen Yuan has seen too many people who were plotted by Xie Shan.

So he is worried.

Su Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Xie Shan asked you to keep an eye on Little Lizhi."

"He doesn't even know who his opponent is, how to calculate me."

Chen Yuan nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, it's ridiculous that Xie Shan still thinks that he is facing Miss Long."

Chang Le was still eating sweet and sour carp, giggled and said, "Chen Yuan, tell me, did Miss Ben look like a rich lady at that time?"

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Like, really like."

Chang Le laughed out loud.

"Your family is reunited, thank you Mr. Su."

"His salty fish can't be beaten by thunder. For you, it's not easy to go from Chang'an City to Yangzhou."

Wei Zheng laughed.

"Yes, Mr. Su never goes out."

Du Ruhui smiled.

Old Chen stood up and bowed, "My lord, our whole family would like to offer you a toast."

Su Yu got up and said with a smile: "Old Chen, we are a family, why are you polite?"

There were five members of Lao Chen's family, and Su Yu drank five cups in a row.

Everyone marveled at Su Yu's ability to drink.

The degree of drunkenness is very high.

That night, everyone ate and drank happily.

The next day, everyone got up very late.

On the third day, I started to get down to business.

Su Yu was lying in the pavilion, and the yard was full of corn stalks.

And corn.

"Young master, I've packed everything up, that's all for today."

Old Chen said.

Chen Yuan began to work with Lao Chen.

"Master, these corn stalks are used to feed cows, what do you want them for?"

Chen Yuan asked.

Su Yu smiled and said, "It's very useful."

"You follow the process I said. After cleaning, put it into the mill, squeeze out the corn juice, then filter, precipitate, and then pour it into a centrifuge for separation, and finally you can get sugar."

This is Su Yu's plan.

selling sugar.

When in Chang'an, Su Yu sold iodized salt.

There was no iodized salt in ancient times, and sugar was also rare in ancient times.

Especially refined white sugar, which was not seen in ancient times.

Until modern Europe, eating sugar was a luxury.

In order to show their luxury, European royals and nobles would eat sugar directly with a spoon.

Queen Elizabeth I's teeth were corroded because of eating too much sugar, and she leaked air when she spoke a little too fast.

It was the same in ancient China.

There are various ways to make sugar, but it is impossible to eat high-purity white sugar like white granulated sugar.

So, what Su Yu has to do this time is to make white granulated sugar, and then sell it.

Holding a fan, Li Shimin walked over slowly, looked at the corn stalks all over the yard, and asked, "My dear brother, do you really want to use this to make your amazing work?"

Li Shimin didn't believe it.

This kind of corn stalks is abundant in Gyeonggi-do.

Every time it comes to the harvest season of corn, a lot of them are burned.

"Old Li, are you free?"

Su Yu laughed.

Li Shimin sensed something was wrong, he laughed and said: "My dear brother, I still have something to do, so I will leave."

"Stop, you have nothing to do every day, go to work for me."

"According to the process I told you, the flow chart is still in your hand, go to the mill and watch, don't make a mistake, this is the first batch of white sugar."

Su Yu said.

Li Shimin refused to accept it, he was the emperor, and he must be upset by being ordered by Su Yu all day.

"My dear brother, you still lie on the rocking chair every day and don't work. Why do you still direct me to do things?"

Li Shimin turned his head hard and pushed back.

"Hey, Lao Li, do you dare to teach me how to do things?"

Su Yu stepped on the railing, and the fan in his hand knocked on the pillar.

Li Shimin still wants to hate, but think about it.

Rice has not been promoted yet, if Su Yu is not happy, everything will be ruined.

"You're ruthless, I can't afford to offend you."

Li Shimin confessed.

"Go to Lao Chen, let's go, don't bother with him."

Li Shimin took Lao Chen and Chen Yuan to the mill to supervise the workers.

After everything was arranged, Su Yu lay down on the rocking chair, and the day of salted fish began again, which was really comfortable.

Li Shimin entered the mill and took out the flowchart.

In fact, Li Shimin was also curious, if the so-called white sugar could be produced according to this blueprint, then Li Shimin would be able to make a lot of money when he returned to Chang'an City.

That's why he listened to Su Yu's words and obediently went to work in the mill.

"Old Chen, Chen Yuan, you two follow this procedure."

"First use the lever to lift the corn stalks up, and one person is enough to operate."

"Throw it in, then grind out the juice, enter the sedimentation tank along the pipe, remove the clean water, and then pour it into the centrifuge."

Li Shimin looked at the flow chart very slippery now, it was Su Yu who taught him slowly.

"Okay, shopkeeper, don't worry."

Brothers Lao Chen and Chen Yuan started to work.
