Wen Desi chose lighters, MSG and ballpoint pens as his key projects, not just to make money. He has deeper considerations.

MSG first appeared in 1866, when Ritanssen in Germany used sulfuric acid to decompose gluten in wheat and was the first to isolate glutamate. However, there was no idea at the time, and it was not until 19o8 that the Japanese began industrial production.

But there is definitely nothing to do with the Japanese now, and what Wen Deji used to apply for a patent is still the fermentation process of the Japanese Ming in 1956 in the original time and space. This process is much more advanced than the kelp extraction method, which does not require kelp at all, and does not use a large amount of flour like the hydrolysis method. Its raw material can be used as molasses residue after sugarcane sugar production, Neijiang is a sweet city, there are more than 3ooo sugar workshops here, and the source of raw materials is not a problem at all.

Although in the eyes of the locals, molasses residue is useless, but in Wen Desi's opinion, if it is only used to make monosodium glutamate, the utilization rate is still too low. He also used it to make rum, or to make alcohol, yeast, glycerin, acetone, butyl-alcohol, citric acid, lysine, and so on. After that, monosodium glutamate is extracted, and the waste liquid after that cannot be directly discarded, and yeast can also be put into it to prepare single-cell protein as feed. Finally, the remaining filter sludge can be used to extract cane wax and ster-alcohols. In this way, the raw material utilization is extremely high, there is no waste at all, and it is also very environmentally friendly.

This is part of the planned intensive sugar industry in accordance with local conditions.

Although Neijiang's sugar industry is very good, the utilization rate of raw materials is really not good, such as sugarcane leaves, bagasse after sugar extraction, basically used as fuel and burned, and some are mashed and thrown into the field as fertilizer, which is really wasteful.

Bagasse after sugar production is a good raw material for papermaking, and can also be used as a raw material for fiberboard, rayon, nylon silk, furfural, etc., as well as the medium of shiitake mushrooms and fungus, etc., cane shoots, cane leaves, and cane husks can be used for papermaking or feed. The by-products of the processing can be used as fertilizer.

For Wen Desi, this intensive sugar industry brings not only capital, but more importantly, it can be used as a training base for the chemical industry, training qualified technicians and workers for the chemical industry in the future. Another point is that these sugar factories can be used to produce gunpowder, explosives, and even poison gas with a slight change in the process.

The reason why Wen Desi set up a factory in Neijiang, the "sweet city", is to deepen the local sugar industry on the surface, but as for what kind of process the "deepening" is, that is another matter.

And ballpoint pens and lighters are important.

This is because the core tools for making ballpoint pens and lighters -- precision cutting machine tools for turning pen nibs and lighters, precision stamping machine tools for making casings, and special alloy smelting equipment for making flint and steel -- can easily be transferred to military production, and the current Qing court officials cannot see the problem in the middle. At present, it is normal to start producing ballpoint pens and lighters, expand production as much as possible, and even introduce research and production equipment for metallurgical and metal research related processes.

In order to resist wear and corrosion, chrome plating may even be required, so it is only natural to import chrome and introduce chrome plating process. As for the question of "why do you need chrome plating to resist wear and tear when writing on something as soft as paper?"

(ps: praise the pheasant mulberry, long live the ballpoint pen!o(n_n)o~)

Menkantan Industrial Zone, Square.

Well, in fact, this so-called "square" is not a real square at all, but a factory area that has not yet started construction. The new workers who had finished quarantine leveled the area a little and used it as a square.

At this time, more than 6ooo new workers are standing in this square that was leveled by them only yesterday. They lined up in dozens of company-level phalanxes, each with a row of 3o people, a total of 1o platoons.

The neat square array is lined up in the square, like tofu blocks, and it looks like it. Most of the new workers are uncomfortable, but it's not okay if they don't stand up, and the iron-faced and selfless cyborg instructors will use rubber batons to make them remember the consequences. The kind of rubber stick with the thickness of the thumb is not an ordinary pain when it is pumped on the body, and often when you go up on the stick, you will roll on the ground in pain, absolutely touching the soul.

"Turn right!", "turn left", "turn back"......

Each phalanx has an instructor who keeps shouting out various commands, while the four vicious auxiliary instructors keep an eye on the team, and if they do something wrong or react a beat slowly, they will immediately take out the unlucky guy and whip it a few times. If this person dares to cry out in pain, he will take a few more beatings.

In the morning, more than 3,000 people were beaten, almost one out of every two people. But from the afternoon onwards, there were far fewer beatings. Since lunch, less than 1oo people have been beaten. This method of touching the soul is still quite effective.

"Report to Mr. Wen, after half a day of training, most of these people can distinguish between left and right, and it is expected that after 3 days at the latest, all of them can be cleared from left and right. ”

After Wen Desi came to the square, the chief instructor Xin Jie reported to him very proudly.

"Oh, don't you need the straw sandals and cloth shoes method mentioned in the information?" Wen Deji asked curiously, looking at the drill of the "recruit".

Xin Jie said confidently: "There is no need at all! For these guys, the military stick is the best memory enhancer." Don't say that we train people, even if it's a pig, just take dozens of sticks and remember. ”

"Hahahaha...... You have to stop in moderation, and if you break it, you can't do it. Wen Deji laughed.

"Rest assured, the shape, weight and hardness of this stick have been precisely calculated by experts and will only cause severe pain, not internal injuries," Xin Jie explained. Moreover, the instructors are all targeting the thighs and buttocks, and there are more than a dozen doctors on standby, and various medicines are also well prepared. Unexpected may be very low ......"

It is undeniable that this method is indeed simple and rude, if Wen Dehei will never dare to play like this in the future, otherwise he will be sprayed by public opinion, not to mention, and he will have to go in to eat free rice. Of course, in the 23rd century, there is no need for this method at all.

"Well, it seems that 2o days is enough......" Wen Deji thought to himself.

Although Mr. Wen had a tight schedule, he did not let the summoned manpower immediately put into production or construction, but concentrated on them for 2o days of military training.

That's right, it's military training!

Because Wen Desi felt that these guys, who were farmers a few days ago, could not be regarded as qualified industrial workers at all. This has nothing to do with technology, literacy, or hygiene, but rather a lack of discipline and obedience on the part of these people.

He never expected that in 2o days he would be able to train a group of mud-legged men who had just put down their hoes into qualified soldiers, and the function of these 2o days of military training was to grind away the loose and unorganized and undisciplined temperament of these people through strict training.

The coverage of this military training is the vast majority of the employees of Xingke Company, except for biochemical personnel, foreign employees, as well as senior management and technical personnel, all personnel must participate.

Of course, not everyone understands this behavior, and biochemical people know the reason and of course they don't ask, and foreign employees come for money, and it's none of their business, let alone ask. However, some high-level Chinese people in this time and space are a little incomprehensible, and even misunderstood.

For example, Wei Sunan, the chief engineer of the Ministry of Construction, was so excited about this that he couldn't help but ask: "Boss, why do you want to train them in the military...... If that's the case, I'm going to participate too!!I'm going to !! too."

"What are you thinking?" Wen Desi couldn't laugh or cry, but still explained: "China's current education level is too low, and the atmosphere of the small-scale peasant economy is very strict, so these people are too loose and not suitable to become workers at all, and they can only rely on military training to make them have a basic sense of discipline and hygiene in the fastest time." ”

Speaking of this, Wen Desi couldn't help but feel a little emotional. In fact, it is not only that the current peasants lack a sense of discipline, but that at the beginning of the 21st century, those peasant workers who came out to work were not much better than their predecessors in terms of discipline. Even if they cause severe consequences because of this, or even kill and maim themselves, they are still the same. Therefore, even a great man like Grandpa Mao would say something like "the most important thing is to educate the peasants".

Even Grandpa Mao can't do anything that a strong person like Grandpa Mao can't do, Wen Desi doesn't think he can do it. However, he thinks that he can try a different method with reverse thinking, since it is difficult for verbal education to be effective, but if it is replaced by traditional education on the "body", it will be different. "Yellow vitex strips produce good people", "filial piety comes out under the stick" and other sayings, but they are all the experience summed up by the sages for thousands of years.

From the current point of view, this method is really good, and it can touch the soul and enhance the memory more than any "gentle education". From a biological point of view, pain enhances the memory of animals the most, and humans are also animals.

Although the new workers would be beaten, the cold instructors would never scold them, and they would not hear any insulting words or insults. This is the result of later psychological research, and instead of making them correct their mistakes, verbal abuse hurts their motivation, and the instructors will only use military sticks to make their bodies remember their mistakes.

He agrees with the idea that faith and will are the foundation of human beings, and that verbal abuse destroys it. Only the direct application of batons and whips against ** can strengthen their memories and make them not make mistakes, but at the same time strengthen rather than reduce their will. The ancients said that filial piety comes from under the stick, but they did not say that insults and insults can teach filial piety, which is the truth.
