Section 33 Making soap
From Luoyang, the vehicles carrying grease and utensils did not arrive until noon. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Grease... It's animal fat, most of it is lard, and a small part doesn't know what kind of oil it is, anyway, it's all fat oil.
There is no animal oil to be collected in the lodge, because the tenant farmers are poor, first, there are not many livestock, and secondly, the oil obtained by killing the livestock is useful, and even the oil residue can be used to eat, even rare delicacy.
Only Luoyang can provide a stable supply of large quantities of oil, where large quantities of livestock are slaughtered every day.
Shi Jiulang did things very properly, after the convoy arrived in the country, he immediately asked the original driver to sit down and rest, and he sent the locals to start driving the car into the warehouse, so as to ensure confidentiality.
Feng Xiaobao and Princess Qianjin went to the hot springs of Deshanzhuang, but they saw that the smoke was filled, and the local plants were particularly vigorous.
When I went to the hot springs, I built only a pool of less than five square meters, and then built a shed on the roof, and the facilities were simple, which was a bit disappointing.
Ding Shiniang had already sent someone to clean up, and after taking over the convoy, the utensils were installed in the appropriate positions.
At the same time, sawing and nails have been heard, and people are in full swing to build new rooms.
Then a dozen masters and servants cut the fat and began to boil the oil with firewood.
In this way, the oil is boiled out, and the firewood is burned, and it is the ashes of the plants and trees.
The simplest soap is oil: plant ash = 1:5 ratio, add water to plant ash, stir, filter, clarify, take the liquid to form alkali.
After that, the grease and alkali are heated with water, and the soap body is obtained after being stirred together continuously.
This is just a rough embryo, and more work is needed to finally arrive at a suitable soap.
After a few hours, it was a thin paste like mung bean cake.
The appearance is suspicious, the appearance is not good, a master oiled his hands, wiped them with paste, and after cleaning, the oil was gone, and his hands were very clean!
Princess Qianjin and Feng Xiaobao also tried it, and their washed hands were very clean!
The trial was a great success!
Of course, this batch of "soaps" is actually quite primitive, but after all, the first step has been taken!
Princess Qianjin said with a smile on her face: "Great! ”
"How can I be rewarded?" Feng Xiaobao asked with a smile.
"What do you say?" The princess threw him a wink!
"When it's time to bathe in the hot springs, you'll wait for me!"
"Okay!" Princess Qianjin smiled coquettishly.
They laugh there, others don't dare to laugh, bow their heads and do things, they don't dare to look at it at all!
Only idiots like Feng Xiaobao don't know the horror of the princess and the head of the family, provoke her, bury her alive with a cane, and so on, she has no psychological burden at all!
……
I stayed in the hot springs that day, and the masters were very busy with continuous experiments, improving existing problems, and ensuring a stable production process, and then improving the process, increasing output, and reducing costs.
For example, after the first batch of soap is used, the hands are dry, that is, the alkali is too much, and there is a feeling of burning hands, so adjust the amount of soap to make the soapy water more gentle.
But if there is less alkali, there will be oil precipitation, and the more you wipe it on your hands, the dirtier it will become.
After many attempts and failures, I adjusted it again and again, constantly adjusting, and manually stirred oil, water, alkaline water, grass powder, essential oils, etc., for several hours.
The masters are very serious, and in general, the people of this era are relatively simple, hard-working, and don't say a word.
Their environment is very harsh, alkali, hot water, boiling oil, heated cauldron is steaming, high temperature smoke is filled, people are fighting against the heat, raw materials have to be transported in large barrels, requiring physical strength and endurance.
And do princesses and uncles need to help?
No, we are noble people, we have simply seen it, and we have returned home!
… Greenwood Villa...
The two were so good that they had their first quarrel.
"You have one percent of the shares, I have sixty percent, two percent for one of my good friends, and one percent for those who can help!" That's what the princess decided.
"I have 20% of the shares, you 40% of the shares, 20% of you give to a good friend, 10% to the person who can help, and the rest as an employee reward!" Feng Xiaobao said that he was very smart not to modify the proposal of "Ercheng to a good friend of her", and also gave credit to those who could help.
Half of the stock price is given to employees, because habit becomes nature, giving employees shares, employees are more united and work hard to do a good job.
The two began to argue, and sure enough, when it came to interests, even the closest men and women would quarrel.
"I admit that without you, there would be no soap, you do matter! But you want to eat 20% of dry stocks, which is too much, in fact, you do this, and it becomes 50% of dry stocks, the land is out of me, the people are what I find, and the liquidity is my money. The princess shook her head incessantly.
"And!" She sneered: "What employees do you want to give half of the percent, they don't even have names, who am I going to give it to?" (What human rights do tenants have!) )
Feng Xiaobao said in a good way: "Then you don't need to give, establish an assessment mechanism, and pay bonuses according to your work ability and achievements!" ”
"I'm not against that!" Princess Qianjin shrugged.
"Then my 20% stock price ......"
"I disagree!" The princess is categorical.
She was so tough that Feng Xiaobao was very annoyed, and immediately expanded her armament to fight, but how could Princess Qianjin be afraid of him and respond decisively!
The mature beauty of the princess is far more coquettish and sultry than ordinary girls, her face is like the autumn moon, her body is plump, her black hair is like a cloud, her eyebrows are green without painting, her cherry lips are vermilion, and her eyes are full of autumn water, full of sexy charm. You will swallow saliva just by seeing her eyes, and if you let her snow-white and round jade arms around her neck, no matter how hard her heart is, it will become soft in her fingers!
……
After the two of them didn't have much strength, they got back to business, and Feng Xiaobao finished his content and said: "My stock price is ...... 20%"
Seeing that Princess Qianjin's apricot eyes were wide open, Feng Xiaobao's finger was placed between her lips to stop her from speaking: "I have two percent of the shares, one percent of the dry shares, which is considered a technical share, and I will give money for the other one!" ”
"Give money!" Princess Qianjin eased up, and was ridiculed by Feng Xiaobao and said, "When I hear that I give money, my eyes light up, such a princess who is obsessed with money!" ”
"Hey, the princess also has to eat, and it costs money!" Princess Qianjin sneered: "My total share capital is worth 20,000 yuan, and you can get 2,000 yuan in a month, otherwise I will cancel this percentage of your shares and do as I say!" ”
"So ruthless, can you lend me 2,000?" Feng Xiaobao asked with a salivating face.
As a result, the princess bit his finger hard: "It's not true that I bit your finger, you are dreaming!" Dream I'll give you two thousand! ”
"Hey, your money is my money, my money is still my money!" Feng Xiaobao said shamelessly.
"Get out of the way, I don't know you!"
The two sides laughed, but Princess Qianjin knew that Feng Xiaobao would definitely give two thousand guan, because this was a man's treatment!
Since he can say it, I believe he can raise this money.
……
After laughing enough, the princess asked: "You want 20% of the stock price, of which 10% of the dry shares, although the technology is yours, but it is still not enough, your reflection of your value!" ”
As a result, Feng Xiaobao's reply was: "Hey, you squeeze me twice!" ”
"I ask you why you are doubly squeezing you?" The princess wondered.
"I'm going to give you ideas on my head, and I'm going to squeeze juice for you on my body, it's not a double squeeze or something!" Feng Xiaobao responded.
"I'm pressing!" Princess Qianjin's anger rose, and she immediately suppressed him, and Feng Xiaobao scuffled with her.
……
The two were entangled hand and foot, and Feng Xiaobao gave a pertinent opinion: "To build a pig farm!" ”
"The pig farm stinks!" Princess Qianjin frowned.
"But it can earn copper money, and it doesn't stink so much!" Feng Xiaobao quickly entered the identity of the slave owner and said: "What's more, it's not us who stinks!" ”
"That's right, that's right!" Princess Qianjin muttered.
Both of them are smart people, it is good to build a pig farm, kill three birds with one stone, the meat obtained from slaughtering pigs can be used as smoked meat, and the fuel provides grass and wood ash; Fertilizer oil is soap oil; With a pig farm, the nutrition of the locals will improve---- even giving them lard residue is welcome.
"Second, if there is a smell, there is a fragrance, and we must establish a flower field to grow flowers."
As soon as he said that the princess understood that pig feces can be used as fertilizer to raise flowers, and when they are raised, they can be sold, and they can be added to soap to become soap, which is specially used for bathing people.
"We want to buy He Shou Wu, which can be used for black hair and beauty, as well as ginseng...... It is used as a medicated soap, but this is a long-term plan, for now! ”
"As for sales, as a new product, we can try it first, for example, make it into a small package, deliver it everywhere, and let everyone feel good about it, and our copper coins will roll in......"
He talked endlessly, but he didn't notice that the princess didn't listen to him at all!
In terms of promotion, he was a little angry, but he didn't expect that Ercheng's dry shares were given to a "good friend" of the princess in exchange for her golden mouth: "I will use peony flower soap!" ”
In a word, the promotion of thousands of small soaps, what she said was fashionable!
……
They spent three days at Greenwoods, spending most of their time wandering around, only visiting the soap factory for the second time before leaving.
The business supervisor Ding Shiniang brought an obscene old man to see the master, the old man's name is "Cheng Laoer", no name, he used to raise sheep, people called him Cheng Qianer, he has not established a family for dozens of years, and when he is old, people call him Cheng Laoer, he later joined the brewing factory as a helper, and there is nothing brilliant, but this time he showed his face greatly!
He saw the princess with a radiant face, looked at it, and hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look again,
"Did he do anything?" Princess Qianjin asked with a frown.
"When he returned to his master, he added salt to the soapy water to separate the soap body, leaving behind sewage!" Ding Shiyi Niangyu reported.
Present a few pieces of freshly made soap, in the form of blocks, which are quite useful.
Feng Xiaobao next to him heard it and secretly praised: "Talent! ”
At first, the thin soap like "mung bean paste" actually contained a lot of impurities, and it can be used to wash your hands, which is equivalent to rubbing impurities on your body!
With salt water, the soap body can be separated from the sewage, and the upper layer is clean soap.
Afraid that the princess didn't understand the meaning, Feng Xiaobao said: "Cheng Lao'er has done a good job, princess, you deserve a heavy reward!" ”
"Okay, reward him with ten copper coins!" The princess said heartily.
"As for Ding Shi Niang, you are not greedy for merit, and you will also be rewarded with ten copper coins!" Princess Qianjin announced.
Xide Ding Shiniang and Cheng Lao'er thanked them again and again!
Feng Xiaobao shook off a sentence and said: "Go get some flower sesame oil essence, add it to the soap, and make it a soap to wash the body." Don't dump the sewage, it can provide a kind of glycerin, which is used to wipe your hands and face in winter, not afraid of dryness! ”
Yes!
"The most important thing is that you should summarize the processing process of soap and soap, write it in detail, do it well, and your master will reward it heavily!" Feng Xiaobao explained.
"Yes!" Ding Shiniang hurriedly responded.
