Chapter 231: The Red Sugar Cane Is Ripe

In November 1649, the sugarcane in Taiwan's Chichi agricultural base matured. During the month, the people there were tired and happy.

At the beginning of November, the director of Jianguo An personally measured the hammer degree of sugarcane every day.

Hammer degree refers to the weight of the solid solution in the cane juice as a percentage of the weight of the cane juice, it includes all the compounds dissolved in the cane juice including sucrose, so it is not the true value of the sucrose content, but the hammer degree of the cane juice has a correlation with the sucrose content of the cane juice, therefore, the maturity of the sugarcane can be measured by measuring the hammer degree of the cane juice.

At the ripening stage of sugarcane, the hammer ratio from the upper and lower parts of the cane stem (tail and base) should be in the range of o.9 to 1.o.

When the hammer ratio of the top and bottom of the cane stem is o., it is the first maturity stage, and when the hammer ratio of the top and bottom of the cane stem is o., it is the full maturity stage. If it is too high, it is overripe, and it is often said by sugarcane farmers to start reducing sugar.

After the real full maturity period, Director Jianguo An gave an order, and the Ming people began to harvest the first stage of sugarcane.

The sugarcane knives in the hands of the Ming cane farmers were all designed by the Han Tang Group according to the standards of the world, and the Ming cane farmers certainly didn't know this. But the knife was very easy to use, not to mention, it was really sharp, much better than what they used before.

The director of Jianguo An expressed his gratitude to Hongxing Industrial Park for its strong support for the Chiji Agricultural Base.

Director Li Ziqiang said proudly: "My knives are all electric furnace steel products, can the efficiency of harvesting sugarcane be doubled?!" ”

Director Jianguo An wanted to say no, but changed his words and said: "Yes!" That's great! ”

Director Li Ziqiang laughed and said, "I'll just say, machining changes the world-"

"You're right! At least it changed our sugar industry—"

"Haha, it's good that you know!"

The Red Star Industrial Zone has indeed made a huge contribution to the sugar industry in the Chichi agricultural base. Providing sugarcane knives is only a small help.

An even greater help was the establishment of a sugar processing plant.

From the sugarcane ripper in the sugarcane pre-treatment stage, to the four-roll press in the crushing process, to the equipment required for the first steaming and sugar boiling process, the centrifuges and other post-processing equipment - plus their prime mover, a cast iron low-pressure boiler and the accompanying steam engine - it can even provide a part of the energy to the surrounding area.

It can be seen that when designing the new equipment, the Hantang Group had to fully consider its multiple uses - even the sugarcane bagasse left over from sugar extraction was designed to be used to cultivate shiitake mushrooms.

The plant has been tested to be able to process 2o tonnes of sugarcane per day – 2.4 tonnes of sugar per day on the world average. However, because the first batch of sugarcane varieties were produced from the roots of the year, the varieties were not very good, reaching 8 percent at most, far less than the average of 12 percent in the world.

But fortunately, waiting for the second batch of sugarcane to come down, this set of equipment has just passed the run-in period and reached the best use condition.

This second batch is the sugar cane brought by Hantang Group itself, and its sugar yield can reach 14 percent, and the output of white sugar will increase by then.

There should also be a washing machine in the sugarcane pre-treatment stage, but the Red Star Industrial Estate believes that this can be replaced by manpower - there is no need to waste precious metal materials.

Equipment such as windmills, the core components they need, such as bearings and other things, can be produced in this time and space, although the output of electric furnace steel is extremely low, but those parts need less steel, right?

Even this thing can be handed over to the Ming blacksmith to be processed by hand forging, which is not a problem for a long time and low output. It turned out that the bearing was perfectly suitable, even the bearing required for the wheelbarrow.

But the sugarcane processing equipment is not the same - its core parts must be machined from the metal materials that have been brought in, which are two different things and cannot be treated equally.

Therefore, none of the people of the Hantang Group think that these equipment are produced in this time and space -- the definition of the equipment produced by the Hantang Group in this time and space is that it is completely made of the materials produced in this time and space, and the technicians trained in this time and space are completely used to process and produce it with their own ability, and they are not allowed to borrow the technical help of the Hantang Group, not at all.

The day before the official start of the Akachi Sugarcane Processing Plant, most of the technicians of the Akatsuma Agricultural Base visited the factory, and then they all left with a smile.

Although no one said anything on the surface, in fact, everyone's heart was completely relaxed.

Sugar was the great weapon of destruction against Europe in this period, even with little Japan -- only it could firmly grasp the control of trade -- to put it mildly, sugar, a high-tech product in this time and space, was more lethal than products such as mirrors and glass, because it had greater associated benefits and scale.

After sending everyone away, Li Jian, the director of the sugarcane factory, closed the door, and the brothers wanted to drink some wine.

Li Jian is a junior college student in the field of machinery, and after being laid off, he and his younger brother have been working in various private factories, and he has a very strong technical ability to maintain and repair all kinds of equipment, especially working the longest in the sugar mill -- Originally, it was not difficult for him to make money, but he always had a request, and he always asked the boss who hired him to bring his younger brother Li Rui with him -- Li Rui was a graduate of a technical school and knew a little about maintenance technology.

When he was in his thirties, he suddenly got a heart attack -- he was hospitalized for nearly a year, and he spent all his savings -- he almost couldn't afford to spend the money for the final cardiogram and domestic stents -- and although he got better, his life went on, and he had to go to work -- but his job was not easy to find, and no one wanted someone with a heart disease -- even if he was good, he would not dare to use it.

Li Jian often said: "Xiao Rui, you are honestly resting at home - can you be inferior to a brother with a mouthful of food?" ”

The younger brother Li Rui was originally a timid and shy tall fat man, and he was forty years old and unmarried, and he usually listened to Li Jian's words very much.

At that time, he didn't listen to anything, he said, "Brother, aren't I a waster?!" ”

Looking at his younger brother who was constantly wiping his forehead with a handkerchief, Li Jian felt a pain in his heart and said, "What a waste, you are a patient!" ”

"No, I feel much stronger--I'm going to find a job-" Brother Li Rui kept shaking his head at that time and said, "Sister-in-law will quarrel with you again, I don't want you to live like this-"

Li Jian's heart was sour, and he was afraid that he would go out to work and have an accident, so he had to take him with him. If his younger brother Li Rui makes that move, he will not change even if he dies.

When the two are together, this job is not easy to find, and life is more difficult.

Li Jian's wife was not happy, and later quarreled several times and divorced-

"It's okay, I don't have children yet." Li Jian smiled and said to his younger brother Li Rui, "Let love have a way to live-Xiao Rui, I have been thinking about this sentence for a long time, is it deep?" ”

The younger brother Li Rui moved his upper lips, covered his face all of a sudden, cried, and said, "I'll go and get my sister-in-law back, she is also a good person-I dragged you down!" ”

The corners of Li Jian's mouth twitched, he opened his arms, hugged his younger brother Li Rui at once, and said softly:

"Listen to Xiao Rui, our parents died early, we can only rely on each other, your sister-in-law has done well enough - your illness will definitely be cured, don't worry. When your illness is cured, your sister-in-law will come back. ”

Don't look at his younger brother Li Rui as a tall and fat person, but his strength is far less powerful than Li Jian's.

Later, when he applied for a job at Hantang Group, Li Jian also explained his brother's situation.

He was recruited by Director Song Shida, who asked mysteriously, "Is your brother's heart disease congenital?" Are you sure when you were sick? ”

When Director Song Shida fully understood the situation, he said, "It's not congenital and easy to do—where we go, the doctors are highly skilled and can cure any disease."

Later, Li Jian learned that the doctor was time--it may really be able to cure all diseases--and his younger brother Li Rui was all at once, and when he just crossed over, the two of them hugged their heads and cried, crying more than the girls.

Li Jian, the director of the sugarcane processing factory, took a cucumber and boiled some salt peanuts, and then he and his brothers drank a hundred years of loneliness, chatting nonsense, everyone had dinner, they were all people living in the factory dormitory, fortunately, they could have one person - his younger brother Li Rui did not drink as usual, sat quietly beside him, no one interjected, smiled when he encountered interesting things, and gently drank his own juice soda.

A technician said, "I said, Director Li, why do you always put flax oil?" Strange smell—"

Director Li Jian said with a smile: "You, you fight landlords all day long, play chess, and don't often go to see other sections, in the medical section, Dean Zheng Desheng and Dean Ma Jun both strongly recommend it."

There is no food better than this big 6 - the ancients thought it could cure all diseases!

The most useful thing in it is A-linolenic acid, which is twice as much as deep-sea fish oil, and has anti-tumor, anti-thrombosis, hypolipidemic effects, nourishing brain cells, regulating autonomic nerves, etc., or our group can take it as our special oil?

Fuck, the yield is too low, an acre of flax only produces 1oo pounds of seeds, if you want not to destroy a-linolenic acid at all, you can only borrow physical extrusion cold pressing, the oil yield is low, it takes more than 5 catties to produce a pound of oil - and so on in the future, the area is large, we will vigorously promote it! How many less heart and brain patients do we have here?! ”

The technician was convinced, ate two more bites of cucumbers, and said, "There are so many talented people in our Hantang Group, this can be sorted out." I've never heard of this stuff in the world - it tastes good again. ”

Director Li Jian smiled and said: "Remember, it's best not to stir-fry - cold food, soup can be added, in the world of noodles, pure flax oil is something we can afford?" We can't even afford to eat the blend - unless it's fake - the medical experts call it 'intellectual oil', the most nourishing - I only knew it when I arrived in this world-"

For a while, it was a little cold - everyone seemed to remember something, and no one spoke.

Li Rui smiled in his heart, thinking, my brother sighed at every turn, he became younger, but he nagged like a woman-
