Zhu Dayou is full of curiosity about the sugar workshop that Zhu Junyi said, and wants to go to the scene to take a look, Zhu Junyi naturally has no opinion, he just improved the process, so that each independent production process forms a complete production line, it is not a high-tech beyond the times, and naturally there is nothing to avoid, besides, Zhu Junyi has another idea in his heart, he needs the cooperation of this father, and the other party is willing to see it, he just can't ask for it.

Zhu Dayou is physically disabled and inconvenient to travel, so he must use the donkey cart at this time, only to see the wheels that more than a dozen Chinese workers could not lift, and Hu Hai pulled it out with only one hand, which really scared Zhu Junyi, and then he knew that he was a master.

When the donkey cart turned the fork in the road, the towering sugar cane piles and slag mountains leaped into view, and it was evident that the path had been greatly widened, and that the road that had been occupied by one car in the past could now be at least one car on each side.

Along the way, curious Chinese workers often came from the nearby sugar cane fields, and when they saw strange donkey carts, they hid far away.

When the four of them arrived at the workshop, there were no less than 300 people around, and the sugar mill workshop was related to everyone's livelihood, and I heard that the style of the renovated sugar mill this time was completely different from the past, and it was likely that the sugar mill would no longer need dozens of people to complete the operation and production of sugar in the future. People are curious, and this is especially true of Chinese workers.

In the crowd, Cao Shanhu was happily talking with the Wei brothers, Cai Jiaquan, and Qi Lao Er of the Black Shirt Club, when he saw a strange donkey cart stopped in front of the workshop from a distance.

Cao Shanhu and Wei, Cai and others glanced at each other, walked out of the crowd one after another, and greeted them, Qi Lao Er originally blocked his face, unwilling to welcome such a child as Zhu Junyi, but when he saw that everyone else had left the crowd, his face changed, and he groaned for a while, and had to follow out.

Zhu Junyi had just jumped from the donkey cart to the ground with the support of Steward Wang, when suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder from behind, hugged him around his waist, and left the ground again, only to hear someone behind him laugh and say: "Little brother, you are here!" Brother is waiting for you so hard! ”

Zhu Junyi turned his head to see that it was Cao Shanhu, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Brother Cao sent someone to inform me that the workshop has been built, of course I will put down everything and come to join in the fun!" Through Cao Shanhu's shoulder, I saw more than a dozen people behind him, all of them were Xuanyi and Xuanjiao, thinking that they should all be characters in the black-shirt club, Wei Shangli and Cai Jiaquan had seen it more than ten days ago, not to mention Qi Laoer, but the other seemed to be a little familiar, and I don't know where I had seen it. When the congregation saw him, they smiled but did not rush forward to greet him.

Cao Shanhu put Zhu Junyi down and said with a smile: "Our owner and several good brothers learned that this workshop was from your idea, and they were full of praise, and they all said that they would meet you for a while, which really made my brother and me embarrassed, so I had to invite you to give treasure to the brothers, if you don't come again, I can't say, brother, I will go back and tie you up!" ”

At that moment, Cao Shanhu said that the Wei brothers, Cai Jiaquan, and Qi Lao Er were officially introduced to Zhu Junyi, and when he saw that outsiders were present, he did not mention the identities of each person in the association, but only said that the Wei brothers were the owners of the sugar factory, and Cai and Qi were in charge.

The Wei brothers and Cai Jiaquan all knew the stories that happened in the warehouse and the sugar factory before, but they usually only thought that Zhu Junyi was an ordinary child, but they had more courage than others, and they rarely paid attention to this little-known little brother, and they were busy with more important matters in the meeting. Today's sugar factory workshop repair is completed, each of them pulled out the redundancy to take a look, how to see the workshop, the construction style greatly surprised them, these people are some visionary people, naturally can see that this design is obviously more efficient than before, more reasonable, Cao Shanhu's ability they naturally know, the workshop design of the person is naturally Cao Shanhu invited back, Cao Shanhu confessed, this set of exquisite design is completely from the hand of Zhu Junyi, only to suddenly remember the old things about the little boy when the warehouse and the sugar factory were fighting, can't help but be very surprised.

These people are open-minded men, Zhu Junyi can make such an exquisite design at a young age, and he can't help but admire it a little in his heart, at least these few people can't do it, so he is quite polite in his words.

Zhu Junyi didn't want to be in the limelight when he provided the design drawings, he originally hoped that Cao Shanhu would come forward, but Cao Shanhu didn't think so, he said it when he met people, for fear that others would not know that Zhu Junyi had made a big effort in it. At this point, Zhu Junyi didn't care about himself, and said with a smile: "If I had known that it was the seniors who summoned me, I would have hurried to meet you." It's really a sin to blame the younger generation for being lazy, taking a friend's ride, and tiring everyone to wait for a long time! ”

These words are not leaky, Wei, Cai and others obviously look at his young age, but they deal with it moderately, and they don't see any timidity, and they are even more surprised in their hearts.

Cao Shanhu asked, "Little brother, don't these new friends of yours introduce us to each other?" ”

Zhu Junyi was about to be introduced, but he heard Steward Wang smile and said, "Since the little brother of the Zhu family has been delivered, I will wait for a few people, so I will leave first." ”

Zhu Junyi was in a hurry, he saw that the curtain of the carriage had not been lifted since he and Steward Wang came out, and hurriedly said, "Ah...... Isn't that to see the workshop? ”

Steward Wang said: "My master is a little tired and needs to rest, so I have to confess today and come to the door another day to apologize." After speaking, without waiting for everyone's reaction, he bowed to everyone and boarded the donkey cart again, Hu Haichong nodded at Zhu Junyi, just pulled the reins, turned his head and left.

Zhu Junyi originally wanted the new owner of the Pattaya sugar factory to see the sugar workshop he had designed, so as to persuade the other party to participate in his next move, but he couldn't help but be a little disappointed at this time.

Cao Shanhu waited for the donkey cart to go away before asking, "Who is it?" ”

Zhu Junyi said: "A new friend is a businessman. ”

Wei Shangli said with a smile: "In this case, I will ask the little brother of the Zhu family to verify it, if there is no abnormality, it is better to open the furnace as soon as possible, so that I can wait for the brothers to open their eyes!" ”

Zhu Junyi was a little modest, and Cao Shanhu took him into the new workshop.

The new workshop is far larger than the previous thatched hut, with a long strip layout, and the whole structure is still a wooden frame structure, and in order to save time and materials, a large number of timbers removed from the wreckage of the old workshop are used, and some still have traces of burning.

The roof was paved with bales of sugarcane leaves and straw, but the ceiling height was more than half of what it used to be, and there was still no wall or shelter around the workshop for fire prevention and escape considerations.

As soon as they entered the workshop, they saw that the pressing area in the workshop was divided into two parts, the upper and lower parts, separated by wooden planks and stone walls, and a cow was tied to a transmission rod, and a slender wooden stick was drawn from the cow's back, and a hemp rope hung down in front of the stick, and I don't know what it was used for.

The transmission rod on the ox is connected to a central shaft made of rough wood in the center of the lower layer, and the bark of the rough wood has not even had time to be cleaned off, which makes Zhu Junyi very worried that the friction resistance coefficient of the rotation process of the central shaft will affect the work done by the cattle.

The central axis passes through the wooden partition between the upper and lower layers, and is connected with the stone stone in the middle of the upper layer, the stone stone is still used in the original old stone stone, one yang and one yin are close together, it can be seen that the convex teeth and concave teeth on the stone stone have been re-polished, and according to Zhu Junyi's requirements, a layer of vegetable oil is coated to increase the work effect of the gear.

The upper layer of the crushing area is divided into two parts by the stone slab, the front side is filled with sugar cane to be processed, and a small wooden bench is placed, and the other side is the diversion area, under the stone squire there is a wooden juice trough, which is connected with a long wooden trough that slopes downward, leading directly to the sugar boiling area, and the bottom of the wooden trough is directly facing a net bag, the four corners of the net are tied up by coconut palm palm, and hooked on the wooden hook of four hemp ropes, and the hemp rope is directly hung on the wooden frame of the workshop.

Under the net bag, it is no longer a small bucket, but a long string of horseshoe-shaped pots and stoves, the largest under the net bag, is the square cauldron used before the original thatched house was burned, the other six square small pots and two rows are next to the cauldron, the gap between the pots and stoves is completely mud paste, not permeable to a little heat, one large and six small pots and stoves are arranged to form the entire sugar boiling area.

The lower level of the whole sugar boiling area is a unified stove, and an area is specially designed for storing dead leaves, straw, wood blocks and other fuels at a place of one meter next to the stove.

On the outermost side of the sugar boiling area is the brick area, where there are still a dozen long wooden troughs and wooden tables for cutting bricks, the only difference is that the final finished product storage area is completely made of empty wooden boxes.

After Zhu Junyi's inspection was completed, he was a little unsure about this simple setting, and he was a little nervous, he couldn't guarantee that it would run perfectly, but reason told him that he had to give it a try anyway, so he turned around and asked Cao Shanhu to arrange a trial production to see the effect.

Cao Shanhu greeted the ten Chinese workers who had already been prepared in place, only to see the workers in the crushing area pick up the unprocessed sugarcane and are about to insert it into the stone, but the stone does not turn, it turns out that the cattle downstairs are on strike.

Cao Shanhu quickly ran to the back of the ox, took the whip and gently whipped the ox, and kept shouting "go, go" in his mouth, who knew that the ox seemed to be iron-hearted, just turned his head and glanced at Cao Shanhu with his horns, muttered "moo", and stood still in place.

At this time, the workshop was surrounded by layers of people, and they burst into laughter, laughing so much that Cao Shanhu looked embarrassed, and laughed so that the Wei brothers, Cai Jiaquan and others were also pale, only Qi Lao Er saw Cao Shanhu deflated, and he couldn't wait to raise his limbs to applaud together.

Cao Shanhu whipped a few times, but the scalper took a few steps back, and everyone's laughter was even louder.

Zhu Junyi guessed that Cao Shanhu had forgotten his warning, and he didn't want to see him make a fool of himself in public, so he had to run over by himself, grab a large handful of grass from the side, stroke the head of the ox, and whisper while feeding the grass: "Cow, cow!" Don't embarrass Brother Cao! Run, okay? When he saw that the ox had eaten a few bites, he tied the grass with the hemp rope at the end of the stick, which stretched out on the ox's back, and deliberately shook it forward before leaving.

The ox had just eaten a few mouthfuls of grass, was chewing with relish, and suddenly could not chew the new grass, staring at the bundle of grass in front of him, and hurriedly walked a few steps, who knew that as soon as it walked, the bundle of grass also floated up, a while far away and a time near, as if it could not be eaten, and it seemed to be in front of the mouth, so the ox walked harder, as if determined to eat the grass, the speed became faster and faster, and finally jogged around the central axis.

The crowd was amused by the crowd, and instead of making a fuss, they were amazed.

The Wei brothers and Cai Jiaquan glanced at each other and nodded in approval.

The lower cattle trotted hard, the upper stone stone turned fast, the workers began to stuff sugar cane into the stone stone one by one, and then simply wrapped three or four with both hands, and stuffed all their brains into the stone stone, only to hear the sound of "popping", one by one the sugarcane was pressed into slag, and the sugarcane juice all flowed into the juice trough, and then poured into the pot through the net pocket along the wooden trough, and all the impurities were left on the net bag.

In about two quarters of an hour, the largest square pot was full, the fire was blazing, and a young man under the stove was desperately adding fuel to the stove.

After the big square pot boiled, the two Chinese workers in the sugar boiling area used the sugar spoon made of coconut shells to rush to the small pot behind, and the other two workers waited for the sugar juice in the small pot to boil slightly viscous, and then relayed to the small pot behind, and the more to the small pot behind, the denser the sugar juice was. After another quarter of an hour, the syrup in the small pot at the back was already out of the pot, and after the syrup, the syrup was lifted up by two workers in the brick area wearing thick gloves wrapped in torn cotton, and a net bag was placed on top of a long wooden trough, which was carefully poured from the side of the net bag, and after the last filtration of the net bag, the viscous sugar juice was finally poured into the entire wooden trough.

Workers put the pot back in place and refilled it with a new long wooden trough, which was already filled with sugar juice and cooled to make bricks according to the original production method.

The last process is no longer to put the prepared sugar bricks on the wooden table as before, but directly put them into the wooden box, wait for a box to be filled, that is, someone will cover the plate and seal it and transport it to the side, and the four boxes will be transported to the warehouse by a strong man and a wheelbarrow.

The whole process is like a smooth flow, there is no half a minute of stagnation, less than an hour, has produced the amount of the past half a day, until everyone is stunned, I don't know which start, everyone has shouted.

The Wei brothers, Cai Jiaquan and others congratulated Cao Shanhu and Zhu Junyi one after another, Cao Shanhu's old face was slightly red, his spirit was vibrant, and he was full of energy, and he picked Zhu Junyi up and shook him around before letting go.

Suddenly, a congregation came out of the crowd and leaned up to say something to Cao Shanhu, Cao Shanhu was stunned for a moment when he heard it, and suddenly said happily to Zhu Junyi: "Little brother! I'm going to see you! ”

"Does he finally want to see me? Hmph, I was just going to meet him for a while. Zhu Junyi said silently in his heart.
