"I don't dare to say whether there is a market for exports. But if you use rice noodles for your own use, there will definitely be a lot of demand - I think you might as well put them into production. Huang Dashan said to Xun Suji, "The executive committee will start to develop the field in the autumn, thousands of people gather on the beach, there are rice noodles to cook easy, just add water and seasonings and cook." It's easier than noodles - noodles also have to be de-alkaline. ”

"Okay, I'll just make rice noodles. It's easy to make rice noodles and doesn't require much equipment......"

"Hehe, do you think you're still making rice noodles in the cafeteria? At most, it will be a few dozen pounds. To be on par with the goal of thousands of catties and tens of thousands of catties, the difference between industrial manufacturing and manual manufacturing is very large. Ask someone from the machinery factory to get you a few food processors. ”

"That's it." Mo Xiao'an was a little depressed, "I'm afraid MSG can't pass - although sweet potatoes are not valuable, they are also food." ”

"Sweet potato deep-processed products such as MSG may agree to be exported. As long as the added value is high enough. If a ton of sweet potatoes can be exchanged for a ton of rice or hundreds of kilograms of pig iron, Ma Qianzhu will definitely agree. ”

Mo Xiao'an really can't guarantee that MSG made from a ton of sweet potatoes can have such a high return.

"It's not guaranteed. However, in the 20s, when the Japanese sold MSG to China, they also made a lot of money. No matter how bad the Ming is, it can't be in the 20s, and we are not necessarily worse than the Japanese. ”

In a few days, Zhang Xin will return to Lingao to report on his work. Talk to him. Huang Dashan said to Mo Xiao'an, "He is in Guangzhou, and his understanding of the market is always more accurate than our guesswork." ”

Huang Dashan said that in fact, it is not difficult to make monosodium glutamate, as long as there are strains, the fermentation conditions are controlled, and it can be fermented with starch or simpler dried sweet potato powder. As much as you want - as long as there is starch or something that contains starch.

"Fermentation is a very mysterious thing," Huang Dashan said of his professional eyebrows, "bacteria are really cute......

Mo Xiao'an and Xun Suji couldn't help but stay away from him. lest he be contaminated with the "lovely germs" on him.

"This is the fermentation workshop," Huang said, pointing to a row of frame-like elevated factories at the other end of the courtyard, with sealed stoves heated by steam or gas.

It is said that the fermentation workshop is separated, but in fact it is separated. There are several kinds of things that Huang Dashan ferments in it.

There is a disinfection pool at the door of each workshop, and the inside is lime water, and you must walk through it to enter and exit. It is a basic disinfection measure.

"This is to avoid contamination by miscellaneous bacteria." Huang Dashan explained, "The fermentation of some products does not have high environmental requirements, and some are more troublesome. ”

Now there are several products that use starch or directly use sweet potatoes in the fermentation workshop: in addition to the monosodium glutamate that Mo Xiao'an is ready to make money in Daming, there is also the kvass that is now selling well in the canteen; vinegar fermented directly with sweet potatoes; Zuihou is an important additive citric acid that is needed in both chemical and food applications. The production process of the latter is more complex and occupies a large factory alone.

"There's nothing nice to see inside, mainly large and small pots, fermenters and pipes." Huang Dashan said, "I will often come to take care of this part of fermentation in the future." ”

MSG is now produced in small batches, with no more than 20 or 30 kilograms per output, mainly for canteens, and Huang Dashan said that if export channels can be opened, large-scale production will not be a problem.

"The equipment of the food factory is very primitive and the scale is not large." After inspecting the factory, Mo Xiaoan said to Xun Suji in the office of the director of the food factory, "In addition to the sweet potato workshop, it is the fermentation workshop." You have to think of expanding the production of new varieties, not only for export, but also for ourselves. ”

This order made Xun Suji feel under heavy pressure, held it for a long time, and spit out: "I will find a way." ”

"Okay, you use your brain more." Mo Xiaoan said, "You know: the food factory belongs to the Lingao Grain, Oil and Food Corporation, and theoretically belongs to the dual management of the Agricultural Committee and the Ministry of Light Industry, and I am the general manager. Wu Nanhai is the deputy general manager. In fact, neither I nor Wu Nanhai managed it properly -- there were too many things. So up to now, this so-called head office is still an empty position. I discussed with Wu Nanhai a few days ago that I am going to resign from the post of general manager, and Wu Nanhai will be the general manager, and you will be the executive deputy general manager -- you will be the main one in the future. You can take the food factory as the core and gradually support the entire head office. ”

Xun Su Ji was taken aback this time. At the beginning, he was the director of the food factory, and before his ass was hot, he was the vice president of the grain and oil company, and he was promoted to the level of three levels in a row.

"This," he said a little incoherently, "the responsibility is too great......

"It's okay, who is not responsible? He who used to be a company commander is now the commander-in-chief of the army, and a man who used to have a bachelor's degree in law is now the president of a court -- judging by his appearance, he is going to be the minister of justice, and you, a former chef, are the manager of the grain and oil company. ”

Mo Xiaoan gave him a brief introduction to the situation of the grain and oil company. Generally speaking, there are four major parts of the assets under the name of the grain and oil company.

The first is through the group's earliest industry: a water-powered mill on the Wenlan River. After several expansions, the mill became the largest grain processing plant in Lingao, and in addition to the water turbine, a steam engine was installed to work when the water was scarce. Recently, the CWI installed a spiral cold-pressed grease plant for this workshop. It is specially used to process dried coconut from Yulin.

"The grain and oil processing plant is now directly managed by the Committee of Agriculture, so you don't have to go to the specific management of production details."

"Okay, anyway, I don't know how to mill rice and extract oil."

The second is the earliest food processing factory of the Committee of Agriculture in Bopu - Bopu Seafood Processing Factory. Xun Suji is very familiar with this factory - most of the ingredients in the canteen are served here. It can process salted fish, grilled dried fish, fish plates, fish lough, fish oil, dried sea vegetables and fish meal. It's working very well.

Then there's the slaughterhouse of Nanhai Farm. Hara Jihua upgraded it to a meat factory, and in addition to slaughtering and providing fresh meat, it also prepared to make things like bacon, sausages, and ham. But at this stage, meat itself is scarce, and every good day of slaughtering pigs and sheep is almost to eat so much that there is nothing left of the bones and skin. The so-called meat processing industry has so far produced several kilograms of jerky for remote field workers.

Zuihou is a newly built food factory.

Mo Xiao'an said that according to the results of the discussions between him and Wu Nanhai, the Committee of Agriculture is in charge of grain and oil factories and seafood processing plants, and the light industry part is in charge of meat factories and food factories. The administrative work of the Grain and Oil Corporation is handled by Executive Deputy General Manager Xun Suji.

"That's the way it is. Is there a problem? ”

"Not yet." Xun Suji had no clue for a while, and he didn't dare to express any opinions.

"It's okay! Wu Nanhai is a very good person to work with. Mo Xiao'an saw that he was confused and comforted him, "If you have any questions, communicate with him more, he will definitely help." After all, he is the general manager! ”

He turned his head to look at the office again, and the room smelled of lime water and lacquer and new wood. The four walls are white-painted. Equipped with a new haode desk and filing cabinet, a few rattan chairs, it looks a lot like a state-owned enterprise office in the seventies and eighties.

"Are you satisfied here?"

"It's pretty haode." Xun Suji nodded repeatedly.

"There is a downside, there is no distribution here." Mo Xiaoan said with a little regret. Because of the saving of electrical wiring and distribution equipment, many new non-critical facilities are now without electricity, and food factories do not have electric motors, and even power lines are not being pulled. Therefore, when it comes to production at night, it can only be lit with gas lamps.

"My distribution metrics are not in vain!" That's what Son So-je never forgets.

"I have to insist on it first, and the bread will be there." Mo Xiao'an said nonchalantly.

Mo Xiao'an slipped away after handing over all the formalities and related documents. He also had the garment factory to deal with, and the other thing he said in front of President Wen was: "The small merchants can't take the money with them when they come" -- he has to come up with several new products that can leave the goods of the small merchants.

Hun So-je sat alone in his office, looking at the white-painted walls, the standard desk and filing cabinets, and a box of books and books for food factories and grain and oil companies, and so on, thinking about what he should do first.

It stands to reason that when a new official takes office, he must first want to make some achievements. Xun Suji's mind was on a large box of his own bootlegged goods. The common feature of these things is that they can't be used without electricity. Since the food factory had no electricity, he thought that it would be better for him to go back to the dormitory and sleep, at least there was electricity.

Originally, he planned to discuss with Xiao Zishan whether he could arrange a single dormitory for him, so that he would not disturb the people in the dormitory with his quota. This is not difficult to do now: many people sleep overnight in their own work departments, and the dormitory of four people sleeps alone, and Xiao Zishan will definitely be able to agree.

Xiao Zishan said that it was okay to arrange a separate room for one person, but in the dormitory, his extra electricity quota would be invalid. In order to avoid disturbing others, the lights are turned off in the dormitory as soon as bedtime arrives. You have to sleep with or without extra electricity allowances, and you have to go to the public entertainment room to read books and play on the computer. But there it was midnight.

"By the way, I don't have a secretary anymore." Xun Suji's eyes lit up. It's easy to do with free labor.

He hurriedly called Xiao Zishan and said that he didn't want a separate dormitory, and it was better to live in the office of the food factory. However, a secretary must be issued.

"Naturally, it's a girl, and she can help me do my laundry or something. But you have to have the strength, don't be weak, yes, you have to do a lot of work. ”

"You don't have a request for looks or anything, do you?"

"No, I'm just doing it for work, just don't look scary, and look clean."

The executive trainee was a girl, dark and thin. Homely. She introduced herself in Mandarin, which she was not very proficient in, but she could barely understand and said that her name was Jin Xishan, and she was 18 or 19 years old this year. It's a fugitive slave from Fujian, who was born as an orphan. As for saying that Weishenme was going to flee, during the political trial, everyone thought that she would say that she was abused by her master, or intended to rape, but she didn't expect that the real reason was that the master did not allow the maid in the family to marry.

In the Ming and Qing dynasties, the local tycoons in Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong and other places had the so-called custom of "maids", and the maidservants in the family were never worthy of others after they became adults, and they stayed at home to serve until they died of old age. This is a very inhumane practice in order not to cause damage to one's property. After all, most of the servant girls are raised from childhood to adulthood, and no matter how much they can be paid for marrying, they are always less than the labor force of an adult woman.

Jin Xishan ran to Guangdong in a daze and almost fell into the hands of human traffickers. was almost "robbed" by a farmer who had no wife in the countryside, and was rescued by a powerful person after some upheaval, and then went to Lingao.

Kim Hee Shan? Xun Suji couldn't associate the person in front of him with an artificial beauty - this is also too "true". I don't know which Kazakh Han element obtained it.

Fortunately, Xun Suji didn't expect her to look like in the first place. But can such a girl be considered "powerful"?

Unexpectedly, as soon as he packed up his things in the dormitory, he immediately saw the hardships and hard work of ancient working women, and he brought a lot of equipment, a box full of jishu microfilm and related reading equipment, astronomical telescopes, hand-cranked generators, on-board supercapacitors, various tools, computers, and a large box full of various digital products, plus a set of extremely heavy coated paper encyclopedias. These things have hardly been opened since D-Day. There is no place to stall in the dormitory, and there is no electricity.

Xun Suji opened his folding bicycle and strapped basic repair tools and accessories to the bicycle. For other things, he asked Jin Xishan to find Xiao Zishan and send two laborers to help move things.

Jin Xishan only borrowed a "Zidian" wheelbarrow and tied all these miscellaneous equipment to the car. Then he pushed the wheelbarrow with a weight of nearly 200 kilograms. Dumbfounded Xun Suji.

"Hey, hey, it's too heavy, let's invite two people."

"Chief Xiao said that it would take an hour for someone to arrive, and the time has come. Let's go, there's still a car. Jin Xishan didn't care and pushed the cart to the farm. Talking while pushing the cart, his face does not change color and he does not pant.

Throughout the way, Kim Hee-san not only did not rest, but also talked and chatted with Xun Suji along the way. Talking while pushing the cart, his face does not change color and he does not pant.

When I arrived at the office, I unloaded my things and didn't rest, and immediately went back to the dormitory and transported all the rest of my belongings in one go. The unloaded things were piled up in a big pile -- Hun Su-je himself had never thought that he had brought so many things, and Kim Hee-san took the broom, wooden basin, rag, and soap horn he had just received from the Planning Commission's warehouse from the car. It's hygiene, it's moving furniture, and hanging curtains...... It's a lot of fun. Xun So-je just watched from the sidelines, unable to do anything - except when he asked him which luggage to put where, he showed a little value.

Xun Suji entered his bedroom and saw that the table had been cleaned, the window was hung with thin bamboo curtains, and there was a kerosene lamp on the white wooden stubble desk, and all kinds of things were neatly arranged.

"Chief, are you satisfied?"

"Very good." Xun Suji nodded with satisfaction, the secretary is really a good thing. No wonder everyone has been looking forward to the distribution of the Executive Committee.

Jin Xishan opened her luggage again and packed it up. Her bedroom is arranged in a small room next to it. Although Xun Suji didn't have any ideas at first, seeing that the secretary lived next door, he couldn't help but want Kim Hee Shan to be more beautiful......

He took it upon himself to unpack the hand-cranked generator, which hadn't been unpacked since D-Day. Connecting it with his own UPS, battery pack, and on-board supercapacitor one by one, zuihou took out another wiring board. As if to compensate for his regret that he hadn't played with them for almost a year, Xun So-je threw up all the PSP, digital cameras, and notebooks in one go.

"Alright, Kim, you come and shake this handle every afternoon until this light turns green, got it?" "This is a very important task. Be sure to finish on time! ”

"Yes, Chief."

With this human charger, you can fully enjoy the beautiful haode time of otaku at night. Although the 3D characters in front of you are not very "cute", the 2D shijie is still perfect.

After fully arranging his little day, Xun Suji began to think about what he had to do to ensure that his treatment could be maintained for a long time.

Mo Xiaoan asked him to do something. Where does this performance come from, export commodities and the like are too complicated, so it's better for Mo Xiaoan to worry about it. It is more realistic to start by expanding the supply of varieties.

He looked at the production drawings of the food factory workshop on the wall several times, and checked the supply records and the list of raw materials available to the farm. After studying for a while, he picked up the phone, found Wu De's office phone number on the "administrative staff directory" he had just gotten his hands on, and dialed it.

In the afternoon of the same day, Yanghe in the quarantine camp received a notice to clear out the men in the sauce garden, tofu makers, slotters, cooks, restaurant runners, and butchers from the immigrants who had passed the quarantine period and were waiting for distribution, and sent them to the food factory. Wu De also picked out a few people from the commune who had expertise in this area and had not yet gone to a place.

The first step was to separate the workshop function of the canteen. After communicating with Wu Nanhai and Xiao Zishan, all the indigenous workers and equipment who were originally responsible for making tofu in the canteen were transferred to the food factory, and a soy product workshop was set up to produce tofu, dried tofu and yuba. Soybean sprouts and mung bean sprouts. Xun Suji originally planned to ferment tofu to make tofu, but he soon ran into a problem - there were not enough soybeans. The soybeans here in Lingao, like all soybean production in rural China at the time, were grown on a large scale, and there was little left to supply the county's few tofu factories
