A simple filter made from a cloth bag is used to filter the sugar solution.
Gu Yunyang then instructed Gu Changbai to start the fire and begin condensing the liquid.
On one hand, Gu Yunyang also asked the team members outside to call Gu Hanping over.
It's best to have Gu Hanping present at a time like this.
When Gu Hanping was woken up by the knocking on the door, his first thought was about the sugar workshop.
"Was it successful?"
Gu Hanping's voice was urgent.
After the equally excited team members nodded, Gu Hanping immediately shouted, "Good!"
Hao Pingping rolled her eyes: "What's so good about it?"
Gu Hanping didn't have time to say anything more to Hao Pingping.
He said to the militiaman, "Go and help inform the others. Even though it's late at night, no one will object if we all work overtime together."
"I'm sorry to trouble you to make two extra trips."
"It's okay, I have no objection."
This concerns the future of the brigade, how could he possibly have any objections?
Now that the brigade is doing well, these people will also have a good life.
Gu Hanping grabbed a flashlight and handed it to the militiaman: "Take this flashlight with you, it'll make your journey easier."
Then, he trudged towards the brigade headquarters, his steps uneven.
Fortunately, the moon was bright and the stars were few, so the entire night sky was still quite bright.
When Gu Hanping saw the kerosene lamps coming from the brigade headquarters, he almost tripped over a stone.
"Captain, what's going on?"
When Gu Yunyang heard the noise, he came out and saw Gu Hanping almost trip over it.
He quickly stepped forward to help her up, then asked with amusement, "So you're overjoyed because the sugar production was successful? You even forgot about your flashlight?"
Gu Hanping's family was considered one of the wealthier families in the Hongqi Brigade.
At least there's one appliance left in the house: a flashlight.
If this happened in later generations, people would laugh at us to death.
But in this day and age, having a flashlight at home is something to be envied.
Until the late 1990s, such flashlights were a necessity for many households.
It wasn't until the beginning of the next century, with the emergence of rechargeable flashlights, that these flashlights using size D batteries gradually disappeared from the market.
Gu Hanping touched his nose: "It's nothing, I'll give it to the militiaman and have him go and call the others over."
Gu Yunyang was taken aback and said, "There's no need to rush. We're making a concentrated version now, it'll be ready in a bit. By the way, Brother Changbai, you can reduce the heat a bit."
They used a method of heating and evaporating water to concentrate it.
"The initial temperature can be higher, and it is necessary to stir it thoroughly and continuously during the heating process."
As the sugar syrup gradually thickens, the higher the temperature, the more prone it is to caramelization, causing the color to darken and affecting the quality. Therefore, the more concentrated the sugar syrup, the lower the heating temperature should be.
"Okay." Gu Changbai replied, pulled out a few pieces of firewood, and then asked, "It seems that the heat is not easy to control."
Gu Yunyang nodded: "Indeed, it's not easy to control. But if it's not controlled well, the quality of the sugar will drop. So next, let's do it a few more times and try to figure out the steps to control the heat."
"Then you need to tell me more, because I'm not very bright and I don't work very fast."
"You're not stupid, but I'll help you."
Gu Yunyang agreed with a grin.
In this final step, Gu Yunyang also mentioned some key points.
But it was actually his first time trying it, and he wasn't quite sure how well he could cook it.
The other squad leaders all rushed over from home, and Gao Cuiping was probably the most impatient of them all.
How can you be happy to be disturbed and woken up late at night instead of sleeping at home?
Everyone noticed her expression, but no one paid any attention to her.
