Chapter 021: Slow !!
"An American businessman came to the bank the other day to borrow money from Miss Tina, but Miss Tina did not agree, and I heard a few days that he was going to sell a modern rum distillery on the outskirts of Havana, and I may be able to contact you for a while. Pen %Fun %Cabinet www.biquge.info," Mr. Adam explained.
"Great!" Old Feng said happily, turned his head to Li Le and said, "Young Master, we really have nowhere to find our iron shoes, and it doesn't take any effort to get here." ”
"Haha, Mr. Adam, I'm going to bother you." Li Le thanked.
After Li Le and Feng Lao cashed the check in the bank, Adam also contacted the American businessman, and the three of them got out of the bank, took a taxi, and came to an industrial park on the outskirts of southern Havana.
"Mr. Adam~" The white man took off his jazz hat and waved it at Adam.
"Mr. Steven." Adam said as he waved his hand at him.
"These two are Mr. Li and Mr. Feng of the Li Group." As soon as the two sides approached, Adam shook Steven's hand, and then introduced him to Steven.
"Hello Mr. Steven." Li Le, Feng Lao and Mr. Steven shook hands one by one.
"Hello ~ Hello ~ " This Mr. Steven greeted him in broken Chinese when he saw that it was an oriental face.
"Come, please inside~Please inside~" Steven asked with his right hand and invited everyone to walk towards the inside of the factory.
Steven took the three of them to visit around the factory, and complimented: "The Li Group has been really prosperous in recent years, when I first came to Cuba to invest, I heard about the famous Treasure Island gambling contract, and I can cooperate with Rosschild Bank to win half of the Treasure Island investment project, Mr. Li is really a young hero, and Mr. Feng is also far-sighted." ”
"Thank you Mr. Steven for your compliments, these are the credits of my father and Feng Lao." Li Le excused himself.
"There are talented people in the country, and Mr. Li is too modest." Steven spit out a cloud of smoke rings and said, "Let's go into the factory and take a look, these are the latest modern equipment, Mr. Li and Mr. Feng, you two will definitely like it!" ”
The three of them followed Steven into the factory, and he also began to confidently introduce a large piece of equipment in front of him: "This integrated vacuum press is developed by a German company, and I shipped it all the way from Europe, not only the juice rate is as high as 55%, but also can automatically remove residual impurities, obtain pure cane molasses, and the whole process is aseptic." ”
Just after introducing the recent vacuum press, Steven immediately introduced a large equipment next to him, "This is the latest dilution and fermentation combined equipment, we all know that the concentration of sucrose molasses is 85~95"Bx, my advanced equipment can easily mix our sterile colloidal sucrose molasses with water quickly, and quickly dilute his concentration to 15~17Bx, and the latest control equipment on the equipment can also affect the work without affecting the work. At the same time, ensure that the pH value of sucrose molasses is not lower than 5.5 and not higher than 5.8, and then the nitrogen and phosphorus sources are immediately added. ”
"Of course, that's not the best." Steven took another puff of his cigar, as if waiting for Li Le and Feng Lao's question.
"Not bad." Li Le nodded, with years of experience in bargaining for groceries, Li Le knew that Steven was preparing in advance for the high price in the future, and naturally he would not praise it a few more times at the moment.
"That's it." Steven nodded confidently, and said again, "Our traditional rum is not inoculated with yeast, and relies on the natural yeast attached to the surface of sugarcane for fermentation, but that time is too long, and the work efficiency is too low, we Americans don't like this thing, so we are very wise to gradually add artificially cultivated purebred corn wine fission yeast in the dilution process, and at the same time of mobile fermentation, the use of constant temperature equipment for fermentation protection, it only takes one day!" Fermentation can be completed just after the cane molasses is produced, and this technology, the United States is the world's leader, and it is higher than the group of wine-drinking hillbillies in Europe! Steven described with a radiant spirit, the more confident he became, and the brand-new jazz hat on his head was about to fall off his head.
Seeing Steven's hard-working performance, he didn't have some applause, but he really couldn't say anything, and at that moment Li Le smiled and applauded, and Feng Lao and Adam on the side also praised together.
"Haha." Steven laughed, his hoarse voice slightly harsh, "Of course, even with such perfect fermentation equipment, it is impossible to make the best rum without matching top-notch distillation equipment." Steven said as he paced to the side of the two large metal cylindrical equipment, and continued to confidently introduce: "This set of modern double incense distillation device, unique in the world, is developed and manufactured by myself, the double tower distillation system on the left, as long as one day, can produce light aromatic rum with an alcohol concentration of 80% ~ 85% (V/V), the double kettle batch distillation system on the right, using the double distillation kettle, first get 40% ~ 60% (V/V) of the primary distillation. Then through temperature-controlled distillation, 75%~80% (V/V) of strong aroma rum is obtained. Of course, the most important thing is that this equipment does not need to be aged like the old wine, and it is wasted in white oak barrels for months, and I will not use such an old and stupid method to get rid of the roughness, spiciness, and bitterness of the early rum production, my equipment only needs to make rum! to drink!! Steven's speech became faster and faster, and his expression became more and more energetic, as if a pair of allegro was beating rhythmically in his hand. Even if he had already taken precautions in his heart, Li Le couldn't help but add a voiceover to his wonderful cries - "Penta!" Kill!!! ”
"Mr. Li! Mr. Feng! This device is okay?! Steven said confidently.
When Feng Lao heard this, he understood what he meant, and smiled, but he didn't answer, while Li Le on the side pretended to have a worried expression, "It's good, it's just ......."
"Isn't that good?" Looking at Li Le's expression, Steven asked rhetorically.
"Alas~" Li Le sighed, raised his head and looked at the equipment again, but he didn't look at Steven.
"What's the matter, you are not satisfied with such advanced equipment?" Steven was surprised.
"Mr. Steven, don't you know, our most particular and favorite in China is the wine of the age, you Americans drink wine, we Chinese drink culture, we came to Cuba Island this time, specifically to buy a set of old-fashioned distillation equipment, especially the kind of old wine that can be stored in white oak barrels." Li Le pretended to be helpless to explain, and said again, "I'm sorry, Mr. Steven, we are not interested in these equipment at all, it really bothers you, we still have to go to other wineries to have a look, so let's leave." After speaking, Li Le turned his head and walked quickly towards the outside of the factory, Feng Laohe on the side said goodbye to Steven with a smile, followed Li Le, and walked towards the outside of the factory.
"Slow !!"
