Chapter 227: Brown Sugar Made from Sugarcane



After everyone had a simple meal, they walked towards the study. Jiang Baichuan still felt uneasy, so he took everyone into the secret room and sat down, only then did he feel relieved.

"Everyone sit down, boss, tell me what happened during this period."

"Third brother, tell us where you've been, who you've met, and what you've experienced. That way, we can analyze what's going on."

Jiang Ling nodded and spoke slowly.

After an incense stick of time, he finished speaking, looked at the person who was still in a daze, and asked in a low voice: "San'er, what's wrong with you? I found something wrong. This puppet looks weird no matter how I look at it."

"I don't know where they came from. The spies from the East Lin Yan State are still investigating. If those two countries also show up, then the people behind this are planning something more."

Jiang Sheng's eyes flickered, and the first thing he thought of was the temple and Kirishima. The ability of this puppet was obviously not what a Central Plains person should have.

"Brother, Dad, let me tell you in detail what happened during this period. Let's speculate what happened so that we can prepare for it as soon as possible."

He told them everything, even about Kirishima. He looked at their shocked, confused, and bewildered eyes and waited quietly for them to recover.

After Jiang Baichuan came to his senses, his voice unconsciously rose a little, and he looked at him with wide eyes: "Third brother, you just said that you have been missing for a while. Did you go to the temple at sea?"

Jiang Sheng was a little scared by that look: "Well, it's like this. Actually, I didn't want to go there at first. I just went to the Huns' camp to kill the person who spread the plague."

"After I cut off one of his arms, who knew he would actually take the arm on a boat to the temple, and I just followed him."

"What happened next was actually a coincidence. I had no intention of saving them. I was forced to do so. If the ship sank, I wouldn't be able to come back. They mistook me for someone else and took me to the temple."

Jiang Baichuan and Jiang Ling looked at each other, their eyes unable to conceal the shock.

"You went...alone, and came back safe and sound. This, this is simply unbelievable. And what does that ability of yours mean? Why haven't you told me about it before?"

Jiang Sheng met the questioning gaze and touched his nose, feeling a little guilty. What else could it be? It was just that he had some resistance to his father.

Jiang Ling explained softly, "Dad, I told San'er not to mention this matter. After all, the more people know, the greater the risk of him being exposed. It's safer not to tell anyone."

"Otherwise, if His Majesty knew about this, he would definitely try every possible means to capture San'er. Who knows what he would do to him? Perhaps he would try to strip him of his abilities."

“……!!”

Silence, deathly silence spread in the secret room.

Jiang Baichuan looked at the two men's guilty expressions, suppressed his anger, and said unhappily, "Well, I didn't blame you. The food was also grown in San'er's space before."

Jiang Sheng hummed, "I grew it. I can hide in the space, grow food in the space, and I can kill people invisibly using the space blade."

He raised his hand and several space blades flew out, instantly cutting the cup into several pieces and shattering on the table.

He disappeared in a flash.

Jiang Baichuan's eyebrows twitched as he watched. After the people came out, he covered his chest and patted it gently. He felt his head buzzing.

All of this seemed so unreal, like a dream. He sat there motionless for a long time, and finally came to his senses. His voice was trembling, "Third Brother, you...you must hide this ability well. You must never let anyone know."

"If this gets out, Dad won't be able to protect you."

Jiang Sheng sighed and said helplessly, "I know, but I haven't told anyone else about this. The Ice Venerable who came back with me knew that I had a space, but he didn't know that my space could be used for planting."

"He has a poison from the temple. As long as the suppressed drug is in my hands, he won't betray me and return to the temple. As for Kirishima, I know very little."

"Dad, the most important thing now is to find a place. I will bring back a lot of elixirs from the temple and help more people become capable people. This way, we won't be defenseless when the temple attacks us in the future."

Jiang Ling thought for a moment and nodded: "Yes, we didn't do anything before, and the temple didn't let us go. We can't hide. The only way to survive is to make ourselves stronger."

Jiang Baichuan felt a headache when he heard this. There was a tyrant emperor blocking the way in front of him, and the temple Kirishima and other things behind him. They were simply not something that human power could resist. The more he thought about it, the more desperate he became.

"Three of you, do you really have a way to give us special abilities like you? That thing about breathing fire and turning it into ice, why does it feel so unreal?"

"I have to give it a try. If it doesn't work, that's fine. I have a backup plan. Even the most powerful people are still human. There's nothing that can't be blown up by mines and explosives."

After Jiang Sheng finished talking, he remembered something and took out sugarcane from the space and whispered, "Dad, this is sugarcane. I want to plant it on a large scale in the spring."

"When the time comes, we can sell it to other countries, earn more money to recruit soldiers, and then allocate more people to make explosive packs, mines, etc. We need to prepare early."

"Those who have infiltrated the temple, the people from Kirishima, find a way to kill them one by one..."

The father and his two sons looked at each other and nodded in unison.

After discussing the next plan, Jiang Sheng returned to his own courtyard and did not idle around. He started squeezing sugarcane juice and boiling it to see what kind of sugar he could make.

Jiang Ling came over and sat aside, watching his brother tinkering with these things quietly. The air was filled with the sweet aroma of sucrose. He sniffed and felt a little greedy.

The originally green juice is boiled little by little and slowly turns into a thick brown color. Take it out and put it in a container. After it solidifies little by little, cut it into small pieces.

Jiang Sheng took a small piece and put it in the water, watching the sugarcane sugar melt little by little and turn into a very beautiful color, a little more rosy than the color of tea, and the sweet fragrance filled his nose.

"Okay, brother, come and try it and see how it tastes. It's very nourishing for women. Then we can sell it to other countries for a high price and make money."

Jiang Ling took a sip and found it a bit too sweet.

"Well, it tastes good, but a little sweet. How many acres of sugarcane do you plan to plant? I can arrange for retired veterans to do this. Farming is something they're good at."

"One hundred acres, the rest will be used to plant other seeds. I've collected a lot of seeds from Kirishima, and I'm going to test them one by one to see what they grow in the end."

The two brothers drank sugar water and talked slowly.

"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to do this, and let the four major companies run the trade routes. It'll be faster with their help, and we'll just give them some profit."

Jiang Sheng nodded: "Okay, the most important thing now is time. As long as we can save some time, it won't be a problem to give the profits to the four major families."

Jiang Ling stood up and whispered, "You can live in my yard. We can discuss anything in the future. It's not safe for you to live here, so you'd better not live here."

"Okay, I understand."
