60s: Kicking Aside the White Moonlight, Draining the Family Fortune, and Going to the Countryside

Gu Yunyang transmigrated from the apocalypse back to 1960, into the body of a man with the same name who had been mistakenly swapped at birth, and he saw this man's entire life unfold.

In...

Chapter 255 Everything is ready, preparing barley malt (2/2)

After completing their training, they would have to work at their master's house for three years, and all their income would go to their master.

And we must also be wary, as our master has a backup plan.

A teacher who teaches his apprentice will starve his master.

This is something that craftsmen are afraid of.

"Using barley malt as a saccharifying agent in the production of maltose requires processing the barley. First, the barley is soaked in cold water at a temperature of about 23°C for about 1-2 hours."

Gu Yunyang didn't keep anything to himself; these things would all be done by the Red Flag Brigade from now on.

It would be even better if this person were my older cousin.

This is a trustworthy person.

Since he came here, Gu Hanping has taken good care of him.

When he became the brigade secretary, Gu Hanping cooperated with him in his work.

Even when he was put in charge of the meeting, Gu Hanping did not raise any objections.

Gu Yunyang felt confident that he could teach Gu Changbai this skill.

He doesn't make money from this stuff.

"Pay attention to the temperature, feel it with your hand. The temperature here has risen now, and the water temperature is usually around this level..."

As Gu Yunyang was speaking, Gu Changbai thought for a moment and said, "I know that, it's just about watching the seeds sprout."

Gu Yunyang suddenly remembered that this matter was indeed as Gu Changbai had said.

That's how rice is grown: first, seedlings are raised, and then the seedlings are transplanted into the field.

This method has been used for a long time in ancient times.

It can increase rice yield.

Gu Yunyang nodded: "Since you know, then you can take over. Anyway, what we need is freshly sprouted barley malt, because we need it for saccharification later. Can you handle it?"

Gu Changbai suddenly felt a little worried.

This matter is very important, and he is somewhat insecure.

What if I mess it up? Will I get beaten up?

It would be shameful for someone so old to still get beaten by their father.

Gu Yunyang noticed his embarrassment and laughed, "It's alright, we have plenty of barley here. Take a third to try it out and gain experience."

By the way, we need to clean the barley first. We must remove the impurities and separate the wastewater after soaking.

And don't soak it for too long. You do it, I'll be watching.

If there are any problems, I'll let you know.

After Gu Yunyang awakened his wood-type superpower in the apocalypse, he often did these things.

Although not from a farming background, they have a relatively high success rate thanks to their special abilities.

These are things that can still be controlled.

Having received Gu Yunyang's promise and knowing that Gu Yunyang would be watching over him, Gu Changbai felt much more at ease.

Seeing that he had relaxed completely, Gu Yunyang smiled.

Gu Changbai was quite efficient at his work, and he finished tidying up in no time.

Since Gu Changbai has experience, Gu Yunyang doesn't need to say anything more.

These farmers are quite skilled at farming.

They don't need to use thermometers to test the water temperature like in a laboratory; they can just touch it to tell.

After Gu Changbai finished doing all that and seeing that Gu Yunyang had no objections, he relaxed and grinned, saying, "Then I'll go move the millstone over. By the way, what's next?"

Gu Yunyang told him how to grind the sweet potatoes into a paste, but first, the sweet potatoes still needed to be selected and cleaned.

Gu Changbai wrote everything down, and only after Gu Yunyang saw that he had remembered everything did he decide to go to the cowshed to take a look.

"Okay, you can start working on it. If you don't understand anything, just ask me. When you're done grinding the pulp, come and call me. I'm going to check on the cowshed now."

"Okay, I understand, Secretary." Gu Changbai's address had changed to Secretary.

Gu Yunyang smiled and didn't seem to care.
