Chapter 647: Following a fool
Chapter 647: Following a fool
The process of oil extraction in this era was simple and that was slowly frying the seeds on fire, grinding them and then steaming them before wrapping and squeezing them. Before once again drying and then steaming before wrapping it all up and then squeezing, it was much more complicated than in the modern world, especially without the modern machines but Yu Dong did not have any other choice either.” Dong Dong, can you really do it with the tools? Your aunt said the same thing but when she extracted the oil from rapeseed, it was not even par on with the oil that was extracted and sold by the Qiao woman in the town, do you think that she made a mistake? Your aunt said that there was something wrong with the tools that she brought. She even cursed the black-hearted merchant for selling her default product.”
Default product …
Yu Dong looked at the tools that were completely fine and then thought about her aunt who would rather die than accept that she was in the wrong and did not know what to say to her at all.
She looked at the long black pan that was sitting in front of her and then turned to look at her grandmother before she asked, ” Did aunt use this pan at the correct temperature?”
” There was a correct temperature?” Grandma Yu was stunned when she heard Yu Dong’s question, she thought about what her daughter did when she brought this pan and shook her head. ” I don’t think so, she only did what she was supposed to and I don’t think she cared about the procedures but the woman she was working with also said that she was doing everything right.”
” Grandma, if you don’t mind can I ask just how many days that woman whom aunt hired worked in the mill?” She was burning with curiosity at the thought of how someone from the mill could make such a novice-like mistake and thus could not help herself from asking her grandmother who nodded her head and replied, ” If I am not wrong that woman worked in the mill for a month.”
A month… that was simply ….
Yu Dong fell silent, she finally understood why her second aunt failed in this oil extraction process. The woman, her aunt looked for was simply useless! Most probably her long talks of leaving the oil mill because she wanted to open her mill were nothing but rainbow farts!
The woman did not have any idea how oil was extracted and since she was not good at it, she was fired by the oil mill. That woman must have harboured a grudge against Qiao oil mill and thus wanted to start her own mill, most probably she was overconfident since she has seen the procedure of the oil being prepared and thought that she could recreate it without learning the principles behind the process.
Which was why she could not extract oil when she was given the right tools and all the necessary ingredients. The woman was overconfident but her aunt was even more confident than the woman which was why she did not even think twice before falling for the sweet talks of the woman who was waiting for a sacrificial goat from the start.
“Yu Dong, what do you think?” Seeing that she was not saying anything Grandma Yu couldn’t help but ask. ” Are the tools all right?”
” I will take a look at them and try to extract oil from them first only then we can say if something is wrong with them or not,” Yu Dong did not want to tell her grandmother that her daughter was made a fool by someone which was she changed the topic and started to look at the grinding mills and everything else.
Though the sieve was a bit dirty, it could be washed and used properly which was why she turned to the most important part and which was the steamer, the fine grains that were sifted and ground needed to be steamed after they were done sieving them, once they were steamed they will have to wrap it up and continue it till they can extract oil from it.
She then turned to look at her husbands and said, “Let’s clean this all up, I think that we will be able to extract the oil as long as we move our hands quickly and don’t forget to wrap the grounded seeds properly.”
” Oh, so you need to do everything quickly!” Grandma Yu cursed as she heard Yu Dong’s explanation and scoffed. ” That idiot whom your aunt found told us that we needed to wrap slowly and make sure that the entire thing is nice and tight before we squeeze the oil out, turns out that she did not know anything!”

Yu Dong did not say anything, there was not only a problem with the wrapping but also the fact that her aunt did not filter the sediments of the oil many times as far as her aunt was concerned she did not think that the woman had enough patience to filter the sediments, which was why she could still smell the smell of bad oil from the filter that was left behind without being cleaned properly.
It was a good thing that her grandmother washed these things as well as she could with her old age or else she would have had a lot of trouble washing the sticky sediments of oil.
“It’s better to extract oil as soon as we can,” Yu Dong did not have the time to harp on the mistakes of her aunt, she knew that if she did not extract oil within the promised time then there will surely be trouble coming her way. ” Quickly let’s all clean this place up and start working, there are a lot of people waiting for us to succeed.”
And more than them there were a lot of people who were waiting for them to fail, Yu Dong, of course, did not say the rest of the words because she was worried that her husbands will be pressurized.
