She walked to an empty alley, took out a bag of activated carbon from the space, and put it in a cloth bag.
When they arrived at the Fu Mansion, the little gateboy handed the donkey cart to the coachman skillfully and took Lin Wanwan to the living room to wait.
After a while, Fu Qiu came in with tea.
Lin Wanwan was surprised and asked, "Fu Qiu, you're back? When did you come back?"
Fu Qiu put down the tea and replied with a smile: "I just came back yesterday. This time I went to Qingyang County, Guangye County and Yongcheng, the capital of our Raozhou. Fu Dong hasn't come back yet, so he must have gone quite far."
Lin Wanwan picked up the tea and took two sips. It tasted sweet at first, with a light aftertaste. It was obviously a good tea.
"How was your trip there?"
"It went smoothly. The price was not much different from that of Yun'an County. The price in Yongcheng was a little higher. The purchase price was seven cents, and they sold it for sixteen cents. They all signed contracts with us."
"How many pairs can you give us every day?"
"Qingyang County and Guangye County ordered six butchers, and Yongcheng has two butcher shops with a total of fifteen butchers."
"Wow, Fu Qiu, you are so capable! If this continues, won't we become famous all over the Abyss?"
"Hahaha, that's right. Within two months, our stewed pork shops will be opened in various places!"
Lin Wanwan looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was Fu Junyi. She quickly stood up and bowed, "Mr. Fu, you are here!"
Fu Junyi waved his hand for her to take a seat. He also sat down and took a few sips of tea.
"This is the new Qingcheng Snow Bud that arrived this year. How is it? Is it ok?"
"Although I haven't drunk tea much, the tea in your house, Master Fu, is delicious. It is clear, sweet, and has a refreshing aftertaste. I can still smell the aroma of tea in my mouth!"
“Heh~”
Fu Junyi smiled softly, called Fu Qiu forward, whispered a few words to him, and then Fu Qiu walked away smiling.
"I wonder what Miss Lin wants to discuss with me today?"
Lin Wanwan turned around and saw him leaning on the armrest with his chin resting on his head and staring at her. She was startled and after a while, she picked up the tea to moisten her throat.
"Mr. Fu, your family is in the sugar business? I wonder what kind of sugars you have?"
"What other sugars are there? Brown sugar and maltose. Aren't these two enough?"
Lin Wanwan nodded and said calmly, "It's indeed not enough. I wonder if Mr. Fu knows about white sugar?"
Fu Junyi was somewhat interested and asked curiously, "We in Xuanyuan Country actually have white sugar? How come I didn't know about it?"
"Oh, it's normal that Master Fu doesn't know, because this white sugar is very expensive and it's even more difficult for ordinary people to make it, so I would like to invite Master Fu to open this white sugar workshop with me."
Fu Junyi sat up straight, thought for a while and said, "You also said that white sugar is expensive, how can you be sure that it can be made?"
Fortunately, she was smart and had wrapped some crushed rock sugar in advance and mixed it with a little white sugar, so the color didn't look that white. She opened the oil paper and handed it to Fu Junyi.
"This is white sugar, try it!"
Fu Junyi took the oil paper, looked at the white sugar inside with surprise, carefully picked up a little and put it into his mouth.
"It's actually sugar! So sweet! Not even bitter. Is this white sugar?"
"This is the first time I've seen white sugar as white as snow. Miss Lin, how much does it cost to make this white sugar? I'd like to work with you!"
Lin Wanwan waved at him, signaling him not to be anxious.
"Mr. Fu, the raw material for making this white sugar is brown sugar, and we also need to process charcoal to make the brown sugar fade."
"Faded? If it fades, it's white sugar?"
"That's right! I came here today to tell you what to do, but shall we talk about the distribution of money first?"
Fu Junyi burst out laughing. Well, this money-grubber can never get around money.
"I will provide the necessary raw materials, and we will split the net profit of the sugar 50-50. How about that?"
Seeing that Lin Wanwan didn't say anything, he hurriedly said, "Miss Lin! Five-five is really not a small amount! You also know that the cost of this sugar is high, and I have a whole family to support..."
Lin Wanwan looked at him and chuckled, "Mr. Fu, why are you so anxious? I didn't say I disagree. So, write a deed according to what you said, but the charcoal must be sent to me and I will process it for you before you can use it. Otherwise, you can't use it carelessly."
"Okay! I'll write it right away!"
Fu Junyi brought paper and pen and wrote the deed neatly. Lin Wanwan took it and took a look. Seeing that there was no problem, she also signed and sealed it.
She took the cloth bag of activated carbon and opened it to show him, "This is the processed carbon. I need a few pieces of white gauze and some brown sugar. I can show you now."
Fu Junyi immediately called Fu Qiu and asked him to prepare everything.
Fu Qiu brought a small stove, put in charcoal fire, found a small pot, and boiled brown sugar and water.
Lin Wanwan took the pot off the stove, poured in activated carbon, stirred it with chopsticks, and waited for a while to allow the impurities and pigments in the brown sugar liquid to be adsorbed onto the activated carbon.
Feeling that it was almost done, she tied a few layers of gauze to another small basin and filtered the brown sugar liquid for the first time.
Everyone stared at her as she removed the gauze and discovered that the brown sugar water had actually turned into light yellow!
"Because the amount of filtered material is limited, it has to be repeated again. Almost the second time it becomes a transparent sugar liquid."
Fu Junyi was so anxious that he started to do it himself, "It's okay, it's okay to do it twice, Fu Qiu! Go get some more gauze!"
"Oh, fine, I'll go right away!"
Lin Wanwan tried again according to the previous steps, and sure enough, the sugar juice was almost transparent the second time.
"Okay, now it's basically done. We just need to wait for it to cool down, and then the sugar will slowly start to precipitate."
