"Village Chief, come and see if it's done?"

Mrs. Li, who had just been staring at the cauldron, suddenly screamed and danced.

Except for the people gathered in front of the big pot, the rest of the people in the yard were attracted by her voice. The most excited one was the village chief. He even lost one of his shoes. But he didn't care about picking up his shoes. He ran to the front barefoot, shouting as he ran, "Make way..."

The villagers who had been gathered tightly around the pot immediately made way for the village chief upon hearing his voice, and the village chief came to the pot in no time.

Looking at the syrup that was almost taking shape and smelling the sweet scent in the air, the village chief couldn't help swallowing his saliva. Not only him, but other villagers too, even the people outside the courtyard wall were swallowing their saliva desperately.

"Lin Zhiqing, is this really possible?"

Looking at Lin Xi who was late, the village chief did not seem angry, but seemed very excited.

"Well, I guess so! The sugar is now out, and the next step is to let the syrup take shape. After it hardens, it will become block-shaped brown sugar, and then it can be sold at a good price." Lin Xi only took a glance and knew that this matter was a sure thing.

"That's great." The village chief was so excited that he wanted to scream, but when he thought that he was the head of the village, he had to hold it back.

"Village Chief, what's the situation in there? Have you found any candy?"

Before Lin Xi could say anything, people outside the courtyard wall were already impatiently asking questions.

They wanted to climb over the wall to take a look, but the village chief had expressly forbade them to climb over the wall, let alone force their way in. After smelling the sweet scent in the air, they couldn't help but speak out.

"Yes! Village chief, let us go in and take a look too!"

"Village chief, that's right! I'm almost dying of curiosity. Could you please say something? It's going to make people anxious to death." Several people also joined the camp of questioning!

"Zhi..." The village chief responded in a very good mood after hearing this.

With a "puchi" sound, Lin Xi couldn't help laughing out loud. She didn't expect that the village chief was really humorous. When she asked him to squeak, he actually squeaked without saying a single word more.

The others were not like Lin Xi who laughed out loud. Instead, they were trying hard to hold back their laughter. They lowered their heads, their shoulders shaking, and it was obvious that they were laughing secretly.

The people outside the courtyard wall did not expect the village chief to respond in this way. For a moment, they really didn’t know whether they should continue asking, for fear that the village chief would get angry.

"You guys can laugh if you want to! Why bother to endure it so hard!"

The village chief rolled his eyes several times before speaking to the villagers who were lowering their heads.

"Ha ha…"

As soon as the village chief finished speaking, the villagers burst into thunderous laughter, whispering to each other while laughing!

"Village chief, please tell me whether it succeeded or not!" After hearing the laughter in the yard, the villagers outside the courtyard wall bravely asked again.

"But please don't say anything this time! Just say whether it's possible or not!" The villager was afraid that the village chief would give the same answer as before, so he added another sentence after he finished speaking.

"Okay, then stop arguing outside!" This time, the village chief was merciful and gave a positive answer.

"It's really done!"

"I didn't expect Lin Zhiqing to be so amazing that he could even make sugar."

"Does that mean that our village won't have to buy candy anymore?"

When the villagers heard the village chief's affirmative answer, they were so happy that they didn't know what to do.
