The machine squeezes the cotton oil to be shelled first, and the short-staple cotton produced is a good raw material for making mattresses, and most of the cotton factories have mattress processing workshops, and the cotton pads produced are particularly popular.

In rural oil mills, cotton oil can also be squeezed by hand, and the processing amount is too small, up to 500 catties of cottonseed can be processed every day. Three tons of cottonseed have to be processed by more than 10 oil mills, and this method will not work at all.

The cadres of Xinshizhuang Village have been to several cotton factories, and when they came back, they had an idea, and they decided to buy oil extraction equipment and process cotton seeds by themselves.

Having difficulty finding an organization, the village cadres of Xinshizhuang approached the working group and told the village its plans.

The working group must have been strongly supportive, but after the comrades of the regional industrial bureau contacted them, difficulties came, and the supply of large oil presses was tight, and they might not be able to buy them for a year and a half.

The village cadres of Xinshizhuang, after getting the reply, turned around and went to find Grandma Youyou, this is the great god, the big boss of the joint venture company, and the identity of the grandmother is no longer a secret.

Luo Xinhua, who was contacted by grandma first, said that the oil extraction machine is a commonly used machine, which does not belong to the classified category, and Shennan should have it. It is also possible to import oil presses from abroad, but it is too troublesome to transport, and it will take at least three months.

The efficiency of the special zone is high, and half a month later, the oil press arrived, which is a large oil press in the island country, and the price is outrageously high. The domestic oil press is more than 10,000 yuan, and the island country is 80,000 yuan.

The village cadres of Xinshizhuang are not too expensive, they said: "Cheap things are not good, expensive has the benefits of being expensive, can you say that the noodle machine in your village is expensive? If it is a machine like that, the price is worth it no matter how high it is." ”

Hantun's noodle machine is really cost-effective, and now it produces one product: egg noodles. The profit of egg noodles is high, one yuan per catty, and the profit is 0.35 yuan.

All the noodles produced were supplied to Shennan, and together with the flour, they were supplied by rail, and they were sold out when they arrived.

It really made them say that the quality of the oil press in the island country is really good, although it is not a fully automatic machine, and the degree of mechanization is much higher than that of domestic ones.

Before oil extraction, there are several processes just to process the cottonseeds, such as delinting, hulling, heating, and stir-frying. The processed cotton oil, after detoxification and refining, has a golden color, clear and mellow fragrance, and can be eaten directly.

The cotton oil hand-pressed by the rural oil mill is turbid and black, and must be refined before it can be eaten.

The cotton oil squeezed by the cotton mill machine, the color and oil quality are in line with the national standard, but the oil has a strong odor, and must be refined at high temperature before eating.

Cottonseed oil contains gossypol, a toxic substance, which has a particularly pungent taste. However, gossypol has poor stability and is highly volatile at high temperatures.

The refined cotton oil has a strong fragrance and an excellent taste. Frying food with cotton oil is very easy to color, the color is golden, and it is particularly good-looking.

This is also the reason why people like to eat cotton oil, stir-fry and cook, with the same amount of oil, cotton oil is more fragrant than other oils.

The short-staple cotton is particularly clean, and the cotton shell is broken into powder, which is a good fertilizer. Cotton meal is also in powder form, with a strong fragrance, and can be used as feed directly.

Domestic oil press, cotton shell and cotton kernel are not separated, cotton cake contains toxic gossypol, the taste is weird, detoxification treatment can be used as feed.

In the oil press of the island country, after the cottonseed is shelled, the cotton kernel is heated and fried, and the toxic substance gossypol is volatilized, and the cottonseed meal and cotton oil can be eaten directly.

With this oil press, the cottonseed of the spinning mill has been turned into treasure, and the cotton oil in their village has also become a hot commodity, at the same price as the soybean oil in the market, at 1.50 yuan per catty.

The oil yield of cottonseed is generally 20%, and the tools in the oil mill are backward, and even this cannot be reached. The oil press in Xinshizhuang has reached 25%, which is also related to the good quality of the cotton they purchased.

Three tons of cottonseed oil squeezed 1,500 catties, 1.50 yuan per catty, cotton oil alone, the daily income of more than 2,000 yuan, enough for the wages of 100 workers.

The short-staple cotton that comes off the cottonseed is a good thing to make a mattress. After you walked through, the mattresses I saw, in addition to the imported spring mattress, were brown silk mattresses and this kind of short-staple cotton mattress.

There are more brown mattresses in the south, and there are still more short-staple cotton mattresses in the north. Even short-staple cotton mattresses are rare, and only better government agencies and units give benefits to employees.

At present, the unit is equipped with single beds that are 80 centimeters wide and 2 meters long. The width of the white canvas is 90 centimeters, and it costs one yuan and one meter. Four meters of canvas is exactly what makes a mattress.

This kind of short-staple cotton mattress is actually quite simple, the outside is a thick white canvas, and the inside is a tight short-staple cotton, ten catties a, ten yuan a bed.

Mattresses made of short-staple cotton are still popular, but the winters here are colder and most of the units are unheated. In the countryside, sleeping on the kang is a hard bed.

Now, cotton is in short supply, and cotton bedding has been used for decades, that is, newly married, and the bedding is relatively thin. Most of the cotton mattresses are one pound of cotton, and there are few two pounds.

Each unit will distribute wheat straw in winter, and each person will put a thick grass bottom (mattress) and put it under the mattress to keep warm for the winter.

Some people can't even put the bottom of the straw bed, so they directly spread the wheat straw under the mattress, and every day the bed is surrounded by broken wheat straw, which is particularly messy.

Ten pounds of short-staple cotton mattresses, the warmth effect is better than the drafting of the bottom, that is just now. And it's clean, hygienic and beautiful, many people don't even have mattresses, and sleep directly on them.

The mattress is filled with ten catties of short-staple cotton, and the thickness is more than five centimeters, so it is really warm to sleep on.

The canvas is sturdy, wear-resistant and solid, and the mattress made of it is particularly flat, and the bed looks clean and tidy.

Canvas is mostly used to make canvas bags and canvas sheds, and individuals rarely can use canvas, so the supply and marketing cooperatives do not sell canvas.

There must be national indicators to buy canvas, Xinshizhuang wants to make mattresses, and the canvas required is solved by the working group, and supports the development of village-level enterprises with practical actions.

The spinning mill in Xinshizhuang, after the start of the oil extraction workshop, the mattress workshop started again. Four meters of canvas to make the inside table, loaded with ten catties of short-staple cotton, sewn and completed. On average, each woman can make four or five beds a day.

Short-staple cotton is originally a by-product, made into mattresses and turned into treasure. A ten-yuan mattress costs only four yuan of canvas, and each bed makes a profit of six yuan.

Only the county cotton factory in Hongcheng County makes mattresses, and the quantity of short-staple cotton is also limited, and the cotton factories make mattresses only in autumn and winter.

The mattresses produced by the county cotton mill every year are in short supply.

The cotton mat workshop in Xinshizhuang encountered the dilemma of lack of raw materials within a few days after the start of construction.

But the cadres of Xinshizhuang are particularly open-minded. Without short-staple cotton, they harvest the off-grade fallen cotton, which is the cotton that people have picked out and is of particularly poor quality.

In the past, life was difficult, and people used this cotton to make mattresses. Now, the good cotton can't be sold, there is more cotton left at home, the bedding has been replaced with frost flowers, and no one uses the fallen cotton anymore.
