Gu Yunyang brought Gu Changbai over, found the accountant, and collected some raw materials.
It's basically just some sweet potatoes and the like.
Gu Yunyang, however, did not intend to process all the sweet potatoes today.
He asked, "Uncle Chen, does our brigade have a place for me to work? First, we need to soak the barley to make it sprout. We'll use that for the saccharification step. We also need a stone mill or a stone roller. This might require a fairly large space, you know, if we want to set up a workshop, we'll need a place."
Chen Qijue hadn't expected that Gu Yunyang would start thinking about these issues so early.
He didn't know that Gu Yunyang's philosophy was that preparation is key to success, and lack of preparation leads to failure.
Preparing everything on the fly is too slow.
And it's easy to get flustered and overwhelmed.
Chen Qijue thought for a moment and said, "There is a small warehouse there. It used to be a warehouse belonging to a landlord."
It's just the start of spring planting, and all the grain inside has already been distributed.
You can use it first.
As for what to do with the warehouse after the summer harvest.
If Gu Yunyang's sugar-making technology is proven, the brigade will definitely invest some money to build a house.
Chen Qijue pointed behind him, and Gu Changbai said, "I know that place. Uncle Chen, give me the key."
Gu Yunyang felt a little emotional. Fortunately, although Gu Changbai was introverted, he wasn't really socially anxious.
Chen Qijue is naturally acceptable.
"You know where the place is, as for the stone mill..."
After considering for a moment, Chen Qijue said, "Our brigade only has one large stone mill. How about this, do you need to use it today? I'll have everyone else in the brigade stop using it for a few days and prioritize your use."
Gu Yunyang suddenly asked, "In the past, there must have been small stone mills in the five villages, right? Let's use those. Anyway, it's just a small-scale test for now. Besides, it's only for Brother Changbai, and it wouldn't be easy to get such a big stone mill."
"I see."
Chen Qijue thought for a moment and nodded: "That's fine. Changbai should know where the stone mill is in Dongshan Village. Just have him go and bring it back. As for anyone in Dongshan Village who needs it these days, they can go to the big mill."
The landlord's house was originally located near Dongshan Village. Some of the houses and tools that the brigade later used were also located near Dongshan Village.
Even the brigade headquarters is located here.
Gu Changbai nodded, certain that he knew exactly where it was.
Gu Yunyang had no objections and led Gu Changbai to the small warehouse at the back.
When I opened it, it had a slightly musty smell.
It must have been a long time since I last logged in.
It is estimated that after the autumn harvest last year, the public grain was handed over, and the remaining grain was distributed to the team members.
This small warehouse was no longer needed and was left idle.
The Red Flag Brigade has several such warehouses.
These are all legacies left by former landlords.
There wasn't much to say. Gu Yunyang and Gu Changbai put down the barley and cleaned it up a bit.
That musty smell is easy to get rid of; just let it air out for a while.
Gu Yunyang said, "Let's soak the barley first."
Gu Changbai's eyes widened and his ears stretched out, knowing that Gu Yunyang was about to tell him some secrets.
Yesterday, Gu Hanping gave him a detailed lecture, which was to teach him.
Seeing Gu Changbai's expression, Gu Yunyang almost burst out laughing.
However, this is the current situation.
People in the past, and even people today, want to become apprentices and learn other people's skills.
First, you have to work at your master's house. When your master feels you're ready, he can start teaching you skills.
Six months, or even a year, may have passed.
We also need to give our master gifts for the three major festivals throughout the year.
Not to mention, they allowed their master to beat and scold them.
