"Boss, our factory regularly treats the bacteria in the storage tank, and the raw milk is sampled and collected when it just comes, and then it is pre-treated, preheated and sterilized, concentrated, spray dried, cooled and sieved to make milk powder. ”

Talking at this moment is Mr. Thompson, the manager of the S-M-R milk powder plant, who has worked in a small milk powder factory in eastern Montana for many years and has a lot of experience in this business.

looked at Han Qianshan, and continued: "After the cans are filled, our inspectors will conduct random inspections again, and the sample ratio reaches 100:1, which means that for every hundred cans of milk powder that leaves the factory, we will sample one." ”

"The milk produced on our farm is in this ratio, and the recently established sub-brand Agusta has a stricter sampling of 50 to 1. ”

"If there is a problem with the product this time, I think it should be on Agusta's side, the milk they use is purchased from other farms, and the nutritional content is indeed inferior to the milk from the Snow Mountain Ranch. ”

The assembly line slowly stopped, and the workers looked at the manager and the boss suspiciously, not understanding what was happening, the S-M-R milk powder factory is small in scale, high in output, and usually works overtime to be enough, and it is the first time that the whole plant has been shut down like this.

Walking to the office and closing the door, Thompson gave up his chair to Han Qianshan, and stretched out his hand to signal the boy to sit on the sofa.

"Isn't there a batch number on each can of milk powder, can you trace the source of the milk?" Han Xuan asked softly, the problem was the nutritional content, and it had nothing to do with the factory.

"Yes, do you know what the number of the goods is that went wrong?"

Thompson's face is not very good-looking, and the most fearful thing about doing food business is safety problems.

This milk powder factory was established by him, and Han Qianshan also gave him the right to distribute 2% of the dividends in the factory every year, if this incident affects the reputation of S-M-R, it will be too bad.

"I forgot to leave their number yesterday, so I went to call and ask grandpa. Han Xuan walked to the desk and asked, "I'm sorry, can I use the phone?"

"Of course, please feel free, I'll pour you a glass of water, coffee or tea?"

"Tea, thank you. ”

Los Angeles, California.

Old Man Han happened to be in a meeting, and when the boy called, it was Little John who answered the phone.

He has recently mixed into a formal assistant position, although he is only the least powerful of the four or five assistants to the president of the SOS Group, but it is enough to make him happy for a long time.

After John Jr. inquired about the situation, he directly called the inspection department affiliated to the group, and all the goods in the SOS convenience store need to be reviewed before they can be sold, and the model is similar to that of Wal-Mart.

Nearly half an hour later, a call back came, and he hurriedly reported several numbers to Han Xuan.

Thompson took notes and said, "The three boxes of milk powder are all made of paper, and it takes a lot of work to find them, so you have to start looking for them a few months ago when the Agusta brand was first established." ”

"Fortunately, the lot numbers are relatively close, it won't take long, please wait a minute, I'll be back soon." ”

As soon as the words fell, he hurried out.

Father Han said helplessly: "There is only so much problem, but the others have to be recalled, and this loss is really big." ”

"The S-M-R brand can continue to be sold, I am confident that the recall of the Agusta brand of milk powder will improve the credibility of our company's products, although I don't know if there are any defective products entering the market, but it is always right to be careful. ”

"The three boxes were only found, and it was too late to solve the problem when there was a problem. Han Xuan took a sip of tea, and immediately spit it in the trash can again, the boiling water was not cold yet, and it was not lightly scalded.

After some investigation, the source of the milk in question was found, and it was milk from Gonzalez's ranch.

The guy was shocked to hear the news and called in a veterinarian to examine the Holstein cows on his ranch, and found that several of them had osteoporosis.

This kind of dairy cow disease mostly occurs in the spring, and after the bone growth of adult cattle is completed, due to the disorder of calcium and phosphorus metabolism, it is a chronic systemic metabolic disease.

The cowboys at Gonzalez's ranch didn't notice this, which led to the disaster.

He made a special trip to the Snow Mountain Ranch to apologize, and when he left, he ordered tens of thousands of tons of alfalfa grass, which sold for as much as $190 per ton, and he didn't know whether he would make a profit or lose in the end.

The father and son discussed for a long time and decided that the Agusta brand should be retained and occupy the market as a sub-brand of S-M-R, but the inspection will be stricter in the future, and Thompson has repeatedly assured that this kind of thing will not happen again in the future.

Thankfully, the American people were very liberal about the recall system, and the S-M-R milk powder plant was reopened three days later.

The recall did not cause much repercussions, which really disappointed several peers such as Mead Johnson and Abbott.

……

Brown University has just been out for the summer, and Han Xuandu has been at home for half a month.

In the morning, Principal Gregoris called and told him that he had A's in several classes this semester, except for those courses that required written exams.

Write a book every day, and tease the animals in your spare time, like a little bully, a brown bear on the left and a snapping turtle on the right, a little donkey running all over the ground, and a cat on the chest.

Whenever he went out for a walk, Fat Ding seemed to be drunk, staggering and slumping on the grass, if he didn't hold it, he could lie there for two or three hours without moving, obviously he was too lazy to get out of a certain realm.

There was a shout outside the window, Han Xuan pushed open the window and poked his head out, shouting, "What's wrong?

"Come out, let's go horseback riding, didn't you say yesterday that there's nothing going on right now. Old Barton looked up at the second-floor window and said with a smile.

Han Xuan nodded, closed the famous book "Red and Black" by the French writer Stendhal in his hand, stuffed it into the bookshelf, ran down the stairs quickly, sat on the floor of the entrance and put on his shoes, and walked out.

In the summer evening, the weather is still quite hot, but fortunately it is a little windy and there are trees on the side of the road.

Walking side by side with Old Patton in the direction of the stable, he asked, "American Flower Horse or Quarter Horse?"

"It depends on what you like, when you were a child, you pestered me all day long to teach you, and now that you are older, it is time to choose a horse that suits you. ”

Old Barton patted the boy on the shoulder, took off his hat to fan him, and continued: "When I was your age, I didn't have much to entertain, I didn't have television, and my family couldn't afford to watch movies. ”

"I didn't go to school at that time, and I couldn't read until I was twenty years old, I couldn't even read, I could only play with horses, and I was riding a horse when I was nine years old. ”

"The pony who was born for a few months, much bigger than McDull, my parents went out to work in the morning, no one took care of me, once I fell off the horse's back, it hurt for months and I didn't dare to tell them, and now my knees will itch on rainy days, so I didn't dare to teach you a few years ago. ”

"So, Mr. Cowboy, can you teach me now, and you are by your side to take care of me. Han Xuan turned around, walked back forward, and asked with a smile.

"Of course, you're already a man, aren't you?"
