When Xia Li finished buying seasonings and came out of the supply and marketing cooperative, he saw that the captain was already waiting outside the supply and marketing cooperatives with an ox cart, his brows were tightly locked, his eyes were slightly drooping, and he was fiddling with cigarette bags and pots in his hands, looking like he was contemplative.

Xia Li walked over with his things, put them on the ox cart, and asked, "What does the commune say?" ”

When the captain saw Xia Li coming out, he raised his chin and motioned for her to get into the ox cart.

He sat at the front of the ox cart and raised his whip to drive the oxen.

"It's still a matter of cost."

As she spoke, she looked at Xia Li, "Xia Zhiqing, how much do you think it costs to set up a sugar factory?" ”

Xia Li is a foreigner who has passed through his soul, and he doesn't even know about the local prices, let alone run a factory in this era, how can he estimate how much it will cost to run a sugar factory at once?

But this is the only thing he can think of at the moment, the idea of getting Xia Jianguo and his wife out of the cowshed and not having to contact with the No. 2 shed in the future, how can he settle it!

"I thought, if we want to build a sugar factory, then it's better to do it in one step, and we can't build it too small at the beginning.

I don't know how much it costs to build a house normally, but in terms of machinery, we don't need to buy finished equipment, as long as there are some corresponding raw materials, I can make a replacement machine.

It can be the situation of our brigade, even if I patch it in at the beginning, it is impossible to make this factory fully automated, and it still requires some manual work, and then fill it in. ”

The captain didn't expect Xia Li's ambition to be so high, and he actually wanted to achieve full automation, and he was suddenly taken aback.

Surprised: "How can it be fully automated!?"

Even the big sugar factory on our island has not reached the point of full automation now.

And you are an educated youth, if you leave one day in the future, this will be left to the brigade, and the brigade can't take advantage of you, nor can you make up for it. ”

As he spoke, he gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind.

"If we could, we would have made only the necessary sugar making tools at the beginning, and the rest would have been rebuilt after the factory made money.

The money was ...... at first. We village cadres have come together to find a way to make up for this money! ”

Xia Li looked at his painful appearance, and twitched the corner of his mouth, "It's okay, I'll go back and see what materials I still have there, tinker with it in the past two days, get some useful machines, and use my technology as a shareholder."

When you go back, you can also teach the team members to boil sugar first, although it is more troublesome to boil sugar manually, and it is also time-consuming and labor-intensive, but it is not impossible to do.

I just hope this one can be done soon. ”

The captain is a smart person, so he naturally understood the meaning of Xia Li's words, and immediately promised: "Don't worry, when I go back, I will discuss with the branch secretary and find someone to build the factory, and I will also make clear arrangements for you when I promise you." ”

Xia Li is a sugar factory, a manufacturing machine, and a money and effort, he knows why.

The team took such a big advantage, and after all, he had to give the little girl something in return, just taking care of three people a little, and he would naturally be more accommodating when others didn't find fault.

The two discussed it, and then took the ox cart all the way back to the brigade slowly.

The captain sent Xia Li to the entrance of the village, and said to Xia Li in an anxious tone: "I still have something to discuss with the village party secretary, so I won't send you."

After the matter here is settled, I will inform you as soon as possible, and tomorrow I will pick a few people to come over, and you can teach them how to make sugar. ”

Xia Li: "Okay." ”

Xia Li nodded in agreement, turned around and walked back, but the whole person fell into another contemplation.

The dirtiest and most tiring work in the whole village is nothing more than piling up manure, and if the sugar factory is built, there must be toilets in the factory.

At that time, the most likely job that parents did in the past was also cleaning the toilet, and Xia Li didn't want them to do it, so he had to think of other ways.

Walking home with a stomach full of thoughts, Xia Li's mind kept rummaging through the knowledge he had learned and never stopped.

At this time, it was completely dark, and the lights in her large courtyard were blind, only the largest room in the right wing room was still lit.

The light of the oil lamp is on and off, and it doesn't look stable.

Xia Li, who was thinking about going back to the room, turned around and went directly into the warehouse.

You have to solve the problem of the captain's ox cart driving first, and then solve the problem of your own lighting.

For a modern person, the world without lights is simply unimaginable, it is inconvenient to do anything, and even to go to the toilet has to go to the dark to light the oil lamp, which is simply too anti-human.
