Chapter 631: Opening a mill

Chapter 631: Opening a mill" But how will we do it?" Village Head Gu did think that what Yu Dong was saying was apt after all it was not a small matter and that Qiao woman might really not give them a break but was making oil from rapeseed that easy? The answer was no of course! Without getting proper training and knowing the correct steps there was no way anyone would be able to make oil and sell it in the town.          

But even though she thought that the plan was full of loopholes, she could not help but trust Yu Dong, after seeing the latter take control of the situation during the flood, Village head Gu realised that Yu Dong was indeed someone who could be trusted easily.      

Yu Dong thought about it, if she was to replicate the same rapeseed oil as the Qiao woman in the town then she will only be creating a small competition for that woman, what she wanted was to kill the woman in one go and that could only happen when she comes up with a product that was better than the Qiao woman.      

Her eyes flashed a little as she carefully thought over the matter and then said,  " I think we will be able to do it, but what I need is a lot of rice bran and the machines that are used to extract oil, will that be possible?"      

Rice bran was completely useless for the villagers and in their eyes, they couldn't even use it properly, though there were some who were willing to eat it together with rice thinking that it was more filling but mostly, half of the villagers threw the rice bran away.      

When Village head Gu heard Yu Dong say that she needed some rice barn, she was stumped and could not help but say, " Yu Dong, how can you extract oil from rice bran? I mean …shouldn't you use rapeseed to extract oil? How is it possible for you to extract oil from that husk? Is it not just a waste?"      

Village Head Gu only knew about how to extract oil from rapeseed, she has never heard of anyone using rice bran to even extract oil, that thing it was so hard to even eat…and it was so dry as well, how can there be oil in that thing? Using rice bran was nothing but foolishness on their part.      

Yu Dong looked at the woman who was using too much of her head even though she did not have much brain in her head and said calmly said, " Then do you have rapeseed to produce oil?" Even though she was not involved with the villagers she did not know that they sold their rapeseeds to the town and because the money paid by the shops in the town was a lot and they had no use for rapeseeds they will sell even the last ounce to the town which was why she was sure that the villagers had as many rapeseeds in their houses as much as the Qiao woman had sympathy for them.      

:)    

Meaning none.      

Village head Gu was stumped when she heard Yu Dong ask this question, she licked her lips and then shook her head as she said, " There is indeed no rapeseed left in the village but we can buy it …"    

" Do you think that the Qiao woman would hand us ammunition to end her by her own hands?" Yu Dong interrupted village head Gu who lowered her head and frowned when she thought about what Yu Dong has said, strictly speaking, that woman was not even letting them buy ration, will she let them buy rapeseed? Even though the woman might not suspect that they were making oil, she would not let them attack the very thing that was responsible for her capital.      

" Then is there no other way?" Village head Gu was really stumped at this juncture, back then when she was offered the position of the village head she thought that she was better than Yu Dong but now that she has to face the situation that needed her to keep her head clear, she realised that she and Yu Dong were far apart.      

Yu Dong could come up with multiple ideas and yet she was still looking at the latter hoping that she will help her. She couldn't even come up with a way to get a hold of rapeseeds even though her village grew a bunch of them!      

" Like I already said, we can use rice bran to extract oil …you might not believe it but the oil that will be extracted from rice bran will be better and more healthier than the rapeseed in fact even the food cooked in the rice bran oil will taste delicious if we succeed then I can assure you that our village will be able to reach new heights." Yu Dong has been thinking of a way to extract oil from rice bran anyway, even though she had a lot of oil in her space, the stock will sooner or later run out, she has to be prepared for that day!      

" I know a way and I think I can extract oil from the husk of the rice, if you trust me then I will try my hands on it," Yu Dong told the village head as she turned to look at Grandma Yu and asked, " The machines that were brought by aunt, were they all thrown away——"    

"No, I thought that it was a waste of money to throw such a good thing which was why I asked her to hand it all to me …your aunt wanted to earn some money by selling those machines which was why I gave her a bit of my savings and kept all those tools in the shed at the foot of the mountain next to Grandma Fang's house, I think that the things might have been washed away by the flood but they all were too heavy and the flood at the foot of the mountain was too light .., maybe who knows our luck might just work?"
