Chapter 92: Bad News

Ye Xiao extinguished the fire, approached the pot of boiled syrup, stretched out his finger and dipped it a little, and put it in his mouth.

"Tsk," Ye Xiao smacked his lips, "The sweetness is still a little worse." The viscosity is not enough, and it feels like it can't be shaped. Some colloids are needed to shape the finished product. ”

"But how the hell do I know how colloids are made? Lao Tzu doesn't remember when he studied it...... Rubber? Apparently not. Glue made from rotten shoes? Lao Tzu is not an unscrupulous black businessman......"

Ye Xiao remembered the news he had read before, the black businessman who used waste leather shoes to boil rubber to make capsule shells, which gave Ye Xiao a very important understanding.

"By the way, although I don't know what the scientific name of that thing is, since it involves leather, then it should be possible to boil edible gum out of animal skin, right? And unlike leather shoes, it must be all natural. ”

Thinking like this, Ye Xiao felt that he was too talented. There are no production processes in this world, and Ye Xiao can only cross the river blindly.

"Da Gray Chicken, do me a favor, go out and get some cowhide pigskin or something."

A hundred gray chickens were unhappy, "What kind of noble identity is Master Huang!" You even asked me to go to the garbage heap to find you a lowly stinky pigskin cowhide? ”

Ye Xiao thought about it, those things were indeed garbage that no one wanted in this world. But for him, it was even more advantageous. Once again, production costs are significantly reduced.

Da Gray Chicken ignored Ye Xiao, but poked his head out from time to time to peck in that pot of syrup, and liked this high-purity syrup very much.

Ye Xiao also felt that this kind of thing made Da Gray Chicken's right protector really lose his value, so he walked out of the door and called over a little Lori who was leaning against the wall and tilting her head greedily and intoxicatedly sniffing the syrup smell.

She is the one who patrolled and guarded here today under the order of Nurse Bao, and she is also the youngest person who "reduced the swelling" for herself after breaking the Four Beauties Formation.

"Didn't you hear from Nasha's deputy about lollipops a long time ago? Want to eat? ”

Little Lori nodded happily. "Captain, did you succeed?"

She poked her head out and wanted to look into the yard, but Ye Xiao pulled her little head over. "I'll let you eat enough when it's done, you now take 50 yuan to the college cafeteria and give it to the chef in charge of slaughtering, saying that all the animal skins you will peel off in the future will be kept for us."

Although Xiao Lori said that she was naΓ―ve, she was not stupid, and she couldn't help but cover her mouth. "Captain, do you need something so disgusting to make lollipops?"

Ye Xiao knew that he couldn't explain the meaning of "refining" to the people of this world, and shook his head. "How so? I want those skins to be used for something else. ”

Little Lori was skeptical, but she still obeyed Ye Xiao's order and ran away quickly.

It wasn't long before she pinched her nose and trotted over with her magic bag in her hand.

Ye Xiao took the magic bag from her hand and poured out all the pigskin and cowhide inside.

He dug up a small bottle of boiled syrup first, and stuffed it into the little Lori as a reward, the little girl tasted it, and was so happy that she thanked her and ran out with the bottle.

This made Ye Xiao feel that making lollipops was a bit redundant, and it seemed that just selling purified syrup was enough to make a lot of money.

But now that we've done that, we're going to try to add value. If you really can't do it, then consider syrup products.

Ye Xiao started another pot, first used magic to clean up all the hairs on these skins, then threw them into the pot and chopped them, and added water to continue boiling.

He had no knowledge of this at all, and controlled the heat purely based on his previous cooking experience, observing the changes in the ingredients in the pot at any time.

After boiling to the point that the juice in the pot was viscous, even Ye Xiao felt that the taste was wrong. Of course, he didn't expect the cowhide to bring out the sugar aroma, but the smell of this meat would definitely affect the taste of the lollipop.

"If you mix these two things together, I'm sure anyone will vomit after eating them." Da Gray Chicken looked at the pot of boiled skin jelly with some disgust.

Ye Xiao directly put the bull-billed bird of Da Gray Chicken into the magic bag, and out of sight was clear. He looked at the charcoal fire under the pot and had an idea.

Charcoal can remove impurities and adsorb odors, which is a relatively common sense of life. So Ye Xiao made a lot of charcoal powder and packed it in a cloth bag, planning to use it for purification and filtration.

After working all afternoon and going through various attempts, Ye Xiao finally made the first batch of relatively satisfactory experimental products, dozens of lollipops.

During the experiment, Ye Xiao also tried to add lemon juice, using the citric acid in it to improve the taste and remove the peculiar smell, and the effect was not bad.

In the evening, Ye Xiao gathered all the members of the club into his room, and each of them distributed a crystal clear lollipop with natural orange lemon juice pigment.

Except for Natha, who had actually tasted lollipops from Earth's industrial technology, everyone else was new to the food.

There is no doubt that the response has been quite good.

Ye Xiao and Nasha felt that there was still something to improve, and everyone else said that they had never eaten such a delicious thing, and they had done it perfectly.

"No matter how much it is, let's put this citric sour lollipop on the market first and follow up on customer feedback. In the future, we will slowly improve and bring forth the new, and I believe that we can accumulate a good reputation. ”

Ye Xiao's plan was unanimously approved.

Later, Ellijie and Nasha also reported to Ye Xiao about their investigation during the day.

"The goods are there, but the store is the problem. The situation is not very optimistic, and the transfer fees of several shops we have seen are quite high. After all, he has been in business for many years and has a very good customer base. ”

"As for other reasonably priced shops, they are either too far away from the location, or their business is dismal and they have no customer base. Not conducive to new Sponsored Products. ”

Nasha analyzed Ye Xiao decently.

"In my opinion, taking over those shops is not the best idea." Ellijie looked at Ye Xiao and said what she thought.

"I've heard that Curry has been a little bit dead lately since he dropped out of school. If you can find a way to get Curry's partners to transfer the store, it's a good choice, even if the price will be a little high, but it's worth it. Ellie said seriously.

"Oh? How much do you think it's worth there? Ye Xiao looked at Ellie Jie with a smile.

"I'm afraid it's indispensable for 2,000 yuan." Ellie said. "If you really want to make a career, that's the place to be. If the yuan is not enough, I can support you unconditionally, and it is not even a problem to help you borrow...... Hey, I'm serious. ”

When Ellijie saw Ye Xiao's inexplicable smile, she thought that he was taking his words as a joke.

"Man, the price you paid is too high. I think 500 yuan is enough. Ye Xiao stretched out a palm.

Ellie looked strange, "Are you kidding?" The cheapest shops in those remote places are also 500! ”

"Dare to bet? How about betting your blood? ”

Ellijie didn't understand what a blood meant, but she also used her eyes to show a hundred dissatisfaction.

"That, Captain. I have bad news for you......" The little secretary and nurse Bao, who was quietly taking notes next to her, suddenly interjected at this time.

"The Curry jewelry store you mentioned, when I went to the office of Vice President Gooden to get the cancellation, I heard a few second-class girls say that their class took a fancy to it, as if it was going to be used to open a jewelry store or a food store, but I didn't hear clearly......"

"Second shift?" When Ye Xiao heard the news, a bad premonition surged in his heart. "Their squad leader, it's Mo Kaili, right?"
