The syrup obtained after evaporation and concentration of sugarcane juice is called crude syrup. It needs to be further heated and concentrated to form crystals. These crystals are called sugar paste.
In order to turn the sugar paste into white sugar, it has to go through a difficult operation - using a high-speed rotary centrifuge to separate the sucrose and molasses in the sugar paste.
Xue Huan naturally didn't have a high-speed rotary centrifuge, and with her current level of cultivation, she couldn't do it artificially. What should she do?
She thought and thought, and suddenly pulled out a similar formation from a pile of memories, the centrifugal formation!
Anyone who enters this formation will be dizzy due to the high-speed rotating wind direction, and their heart will leave their body.
This shows how terrifying this formation is.
But right now it is just right for separating sugar paste!
It is not difficult to set up a centrifugal array, and the effect of the array is linked to the cultivation level of the person who sets up the array. In other words, the more powerful the cultivator, the more powerful the centrifugal array he sets up.
The centrifugal array that Xue Huan had currently set up could only cover an area of one or two meters, but it was enough to separate the sugar paste.
After setting up the formation, she placed the sugar paste that had been obtained earlier and had cooled and solidified into the formation.
She set up the formation on a round table so that the candy she got would fall on a clean table.
She injected spiritual power into the formation on the round table, and the formation was activated instantly. A cylindrical tornado formed above the round table, moving so fast that it seemed to be standing still.
The sugar paste was rolled in and evenly distributed throughout the wind column, which looked quite nice.
Xue Huan didn't know how long the separation would take. After an estimated five minutes, she stopped the formation. A pile of coarse-grained sugar cubes fell on the table. It was completely different from the white sugar she had imagined, so she continued to separate it.
After another five minutes, what she got was a pile of evenly granulated sugar, slightly yellowish in color, instead of the snow-white color she had imagined.
There is no way around it. After all, compared to sophisticated and professional machines, the formation cannot fully achieve its effect.
But this is also very good. After all, the sugar on the market now is either brown sugar or rock sugar. This kind of rock sugar is not made by recrystallization of granulated sugar, but is formed by the natural condensation of sugarcane juice into blocks. It is natural rock sugar, yellowish in color, and relatively rough.
However, this kind of rock sugar is not affordable for ordinary people.
White sugar had not yet appeared in this world.
Xue Huan could already imagine how popular white sugar would be once it appeared.
The successful experiment with white sugar gave Xue Huan a boost of confidence. After summarizing her first experience, she continued to devote herself to the production of white sugar.

"I want this cake, wrap it up for me."
In Zhaoji Snack Shop, Cai Ling pointed at a two-layer cake on the glass counter.
After being under house arrest for a month, the first thing she did upon her release was go shopping. Her destination was Zhao Ji, the restaurant her brother Cai Ji had been talking about to her during her confinement.
Taking advantage of the fact that she couldn't go out, Cai Ji deliberately showed off those novel foods in front of her, which made her feel itchy.
Now that she is finally free, she must come to Zhaoji to take a good look, right?
After a round of shopping, Zhao Ji did not disappoint her. Whether it was the preserved fruits and dried meat that she was tired of, or the ice cream and spicy strips that she had never seen before, the taste was impeccable.
Cai Ling spent dozens of taels of silver in one go. When she saw the cake on the counter before leaving, she naturally would not let it go.
Chun Yan said apologetically, "Miss, I'm so sorry, this cake has been reserved. If you want to buy a cake, you can come here and reserve one. We have various sizes and designs for you to choose from."
Cai Ling's brows immediately furrowed. "Booked? Booked by whom?"
"Miss, our store has a rule that customers' information cannot be disclosed."
"Hehe, you're just a small snack shop, and you dare to talk rules with me? No matter who you reserved it for, I want this cake now." As he spoke, he threw over a stack of silver bills.
Chun Yan didn't answer, and said in a soft yet firm tone: "Miss, the cakes that have been ordered cannot be sold to others. I hope you can understand."
Cai Ling was completely enraged, her face suddenly darkening. "Do you know who I am? You guys at Zhao Ji are determined to go against me, right?"
Chun Yan looked embarrassed: "Girl, it's not like that..."
Before she could finish her words, Cai Ling suddenly pushed her away, sneering repeatedly: "What a good Zhao Ji! A mere slave dares to talk back to me. Chun'er, slap me in the face!"
Chun'er stepped forward, raised her arm high and slapped Chunyan.
Seeing that the slap was about to fall on Chunyan's face, the customers watching in the store couldn't help but look away.
The next moment, a scream was heard, but it did not come from Chunyan's mouth, but from Chun'er.
She covered her wrist, feeling as if the bones were broken. She pulled up her sleeve and saw a red mark on it as if it had been hit by something.
"Miss Cai is so arrogant." Xue Huan walked in. "She's my person. Not to mention she didn't do anything wrong, even if she did, it's not anyone else's turn to teach her a lesson."
She stood in front of Chunyan and looked at Cai Ling coldly.
When she first opened the shop, she had expected to run into Cai Ling again, but she didn't expect that for more than a month, Cai Ling, the daughter of the county magistrate, had never set foot in Zhao Ji.
So what if she didn't come? Xue Huan secretly hoped that she didn't come. Anyway, Zhao Ji didn't need another customer.
It wasn't that she wasn't coming, it was just that the time hadn't come yet. Cai Ling's arrival put the employees in her store in a difficult position.
She really thinks she is the boss and everyone has to obey her.
Cai Ling was very angry at Xue Huan's words, and for some reason, she felt uncomfortable the first time she saw this woman, even though she looked very ordinary.
"Are you the boss of Zhao Ji?" She raised her chin with a look of contempt.
Xue Huan nodded slightly, "Not bad."
"If you sell me that cake now, I'll forgive you. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that your crappy shop can still operate."
Cai Ling spoke in a condescending tone.
Before Xue Huan could do anything, the other customers in the store couldn't help but grumble.
"She actually called Zhao Ji a shabby shop? What's that look in her eyes?"
"Wasn't she enjoying her meal in this shabby shop just now?"
"I've heard that the county magistrate's daughter is very arrogant, but now I've truly seen it."
"I wonder if Miss Zhao can handle this. What if Cai Ling really uses some trickery to shut down Zhao Ji? Then we won't be able to eat the snacks here anymore."
…
Cai Ling glanced over fiercely, and the customers immediately shut up and pretended to be choosing snacks in front of the shelf, making it impossible for her to tell who was speaking ill of them.
Xue Huan smiled slightly. "Our shop is based on integrity. Since this cake has already been pre-sold to someone else, there's no point in reselling it. No matter how much money you offer, it won't help. Miss Cai, please."
He made a gesture to see the guest off.
