Gu Yundong pointed at the white sugar. “The formula for the white sugar can be presented to the imperial court.”
Qin Wenzheng’s eyes lit up, but she continued, “But there are conditions.”
“What conditions?”
“The imperial court will allow me to privately make and sell it.” Damn it, she was clearly the one who made it. She still had to obtain the imperial court’s permission to make deals. It was so annoying.
But Gu Yundong knew that it was impossible for her to keep the technique of extracting white sugar in her hands.
This thing was not like recipe or embroidery skills. This person did not have it, but that person did. They could hide it as an inheritance and let the future generations inherit the skills.
Gu Yundong continued, “As for me, even if I make a private transaction, I will only set the price to be about the same as the imperial court’s. I don’t need much, so most people still have to ask the emperor for it, right? As long as Master Qin is my backer and doesn’t let others find trouble with me, I will tell you the formula.”
Qin Wenzheng was silent. After thinking for a long time, he finally nodded seriously. “Alright, then can I go to Yongfu Village now to see how you refine this white sugar?”
“Master Qin, you should ask the higher-ups first and confirm it.”
Qin Wenzheng looked at her deeply. “You don’t look like a farmer girl at all.”
“I also think I’m very smart.”
Madam Ge, who was sitting quietly at the side, could not help but laugh out loud. Qin Wenzheng’s tense face could not help but twitch. He shook his head and laughed. “Then Miss Gu, wait a moment. I’ll go write a letter.”
As he spoke, he took the white candy and left.
Madam Ge had been watching. When she heard that Qin Wenzheng was leaving, she wondered if she could have a bite of such sweet and white sugar. She did not expect her husband, who was insensitive, to take it away..
