Chapter 184 Miss, do you want candy?
A few days after returning home, Liu Mingqi was always under the care of maternal love.
Princess Yu felt that it was hard for her son to go out, and she was either big fish or caring about her well-being all day long, and she wanted to treat her son as a child of three or five years old.
By the way, she also asked her son why she had not been in touch with Qiaolian, but instead kept instructing Qiaolian to do things.
The boy was amused and crying.
Miss Qiaolian is so beautiful, would he ignore it?
It’s just that because he is not old enough and needs to polish his body, he can become a Neptune, so Liu Mingqi temporarily couldn’t stand it.
Besides, he didn't mean to Qiao Lian to treat her as a slave.
He left all such a major matter as Baitang to Qiaolian to deal with. Isn’t it a great trust?
Speaking of Qiao Lian, she has not been in the mansion recently, but has been rushing to the Workshop of Prince Yu’s Mansion with all her heart.
Sugar cane purchased from Sichuan and Hunan has arrived in the capital one after another.
Qiaolian led the workers to press, remove residue, filter, distillate, etc., and they all had to teach them step by step, and they were very busy.
Although the sugar workshop was recently established and all the staff were recruited from various workshops, because they were all elderly people who have been working in the workshop, it would not be uncomfortable to use it.
They have a large number of people, at least one hundred people, which is more than any other classification workshop.
However, the process required to refine sugar is more than soap and essential oils, and it is very complicated, so at the beginning, everyone did it slowly.
Not only are you slow to say, you are often prone to mistakes.
If it weren't for the crucial process that was in Qiao Lian's hands, it might have been slower.
Liu Mingqi doesn’t care whether she is slow or not, he only cares about the quality of the product.
As long as the quality is good and everyone is familiar with it, the yield will naturally increase.
If you just want to catch up with the progress and do not pay attention to quality, no product can be achieved.
The young man was very glad that during this period, the recruitment of servants in Prince Yu's mansion had been completed, and a total of more than 700 people were recruited, which just made the total number of people in the mansion exceed 1,000.
According to Liu Mingqi's suggestion, the Yu Mansion recruited mainly among the victims of the disaster, including family members, with old people and young families.
Because of all kinds of pressures and responsibilities in life, they cherish their work and work hard.
At the same time, their parents and children lived in Prince Yu's Mansion, which was equivalent to giving them a shackle of loyalty, so that they would not dare to betray them.
There were more than 700 people who just arrived, including only 241 young and strong laborers, all entered the Yuwang Mansion workshop to work, which greatly liberated the people who were originally in the workshop and added a lot of people to the sugar workshop.
Liu Mingqi took the time to see it. Now, the sugar workshop can make about one thousand kilograms of sugar in a day, and it requires consuming a total of seven thousand kilograms of sugar cane.
Since the mass production started officially a few days ago, 5,000 kilograms of inventory have been accumulated, all of which have been made into a kilogram of kraft paper, with a bright red label on the surface.
The boy opened a pack casually and found that the sugar was not as white as he ate in his previous life. Although it looked like a decoration overall, in fact there was some gray color, which was not so pure.
As a chemistry expert, Liu Mingqi knew that this had nothing to do with the manufacturing process.
This is urgent. After all, the achievements of the laboratory cannot be compared with large-scale mass production. There are many differences here.
If you want to do better, you have to follow the process step by step and slowly think about it and improve it so that you can do it better and better.
Of course, this kind of white sugar is much better than the previous brown sugar.
The most important thing is that white sugar is easy to store and use, unlike brown sugar in paste and honey, which is inconvenient to store and carry.
However, in the face of such achievements, Liu Mingqi was still not satisfied, and even Miss Qiaolian was not satisfied.
Why?
The raw materials are almost no longer piled up!
After buying sugarcane from Hunan and Sichuan, it is not a thousand pounds, five thousand pounds, and ten thousand pounds.
With such a small quantity, the price is not only expensive, but also a loss when transported.
The purchasing staff sent by Tian Rong bought two million kilograms in one go according to Liu Mingqi's request.
Although the harvesting period of sugarcane is very long and can be transported one after another within three or four months, the amount of nearly 700,000 jin per month is a huge gap between the amount of 7,000 jin per day.
According to this dosage, it will take at least ten months.
Once the weather gets hot, the time for sugarcane juice to deteriorate will be sharply shortened. Under ancient craft conditions, these sugarcane juices will be useless.
According to previous plans, at least the daily dosage is three times that of now.
But training workers is not a matter of one day or two.
Even though the people who are transferred to the sugar workshop now are old people in the mansion and have worked in soap workshops, essential oil workshops, alcohol workshops, and paper workshops, they still need time to adapt to the completely different production processes.
So these days, Miss Qiaolian wishes she could eat and live in the sugar workshop. How could she have any chance to have a love relationship with Liu Mingqi?
When talking about love, the day after Liu Mingqi returned, the guy Liu Mingjing came over and said that it was Miss Qiu Xiang who invited him to have tea and talk about the story of the gates of hell.
Liu Mingqi is very interested in this.
Moreover, every time I think of this beautiful young lady who looks almost exactly the same as the big star in my previous life, the boy feels hot.
Even though it was rumored that Qiu Xiang had a close relationship with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Liu Mingqi didn't care.
The man was unmarried and the woman was unmarried, and the emperor of the Dakang Dynasty was not so domineering.
Since Miss Qiu Xiang has not yet married, why can’t the monk touch it?
So when he came out of the workshop today, Liu Mingqi called Liu Mingjing and smiled at the agreed time.
There are not tea parties in the Burial House every day, but there are not today.
The young lady in charge of the reception saw the two of them coming and took them to the tea hall on the second floor with a smile. After asking them to sit down, two beautiful women came down from the third floor not long after.
One is naturally Qiu Xiang, who is beautiful and beautiful, and the other is a beautiful and quiet woman, but she is also an old acquaintance of Liu Mingqi.
"Sister Shuang, are you here too?" Liu Mingqi looked at her wrong expression and smiled first.
But I knew that Wu Yeshuang, who had just sat down, pointed at him and scolded: "A person who is not trustworthy!"
"What's wrong? This is?" Liu Mingqi asked inexplicably, "When will I not be trusting?"
"Didn't you tell me to go to control the gates of hell when the dry season is in the water?"
"yes."
"The emperor said that this method needs to be sealed, what do you do?" Wu Yeshuang accused, "You are just timid and afraid of things!"
"My dear sister, what you said is unreasonable." Liu Mingqi smiled bitterly, "Have you heard the rumors in the capital? I am the one who is favored by destiny. I have the blessing of gods and should be the emperor! Tell me, what should I do if I encounter such a thing?"
When Liu Mingqi came back from the Ghost Gate and got off the boat, Chi San was ordered to secretly get into the carriage and told Liu Mingqi these rumors.
At that time, Liu Mingqi became alert.
Although Emperor Jinghe would definitely not do anything to him, what do the prince think? What do you all think? What do the children of the royal family think?
If everyone doubts him, then Liu Mingqi will become an isolated person. How can she show off her power in Dakang and live a happy life?
So when he was in the palace, he deliberately brought the topic to the gods, making Jing and Emperor alert, so as to protect him.
This emperor's uncle did not disappoint Liu Mingqi, but directly took over all the cause and effect, and also showed his attitude to protect Liu Mingqi, which made all the troubles temporarily disappear and no investigation came.
Unexpectedly, Wu Yeshuang was so resolute and insisted on letting Liu Mingqi explain it clearly.
Hearing Liu Mingqi's own explanation, Wu Yeshuang gave him a blank look, "You dare not even be a great thing that benefits the country and the people. Look at your little courage! If you are not afraid of me revealing it, give me the secret recipe and I will do it."
"You can't do it." Liu Mingqi shook her head.
"shit!"
Wu Yeshuang is now a familiar person with Liu Mingqi, so she took out her straightforwardness in supervising the project: "Tell me, why can't I do it?"
"Have you seen the toilet I made?"
“See it.”
"How do you think?"
“It’s easy to use.”
"Can you tell me what the principle is?"
"The siphon principle, boy Fang Lei has already told me."
"Why does the siphon principle occur, and what other aspects can it be applied to? Do you know?"
“…”
After a few questions, Wu Yeshuang's courage was not that strong.
Liu Mingqi said again: "Now Fang Lei is working on a hot air balloon that can carry people to the sky. Do you know why he failed so many times and almost broke his leg?"
Wu Yeshuang shook her head again.
"This is because he knows some theories but has not practiced them." Liu Mingqi said; "If you want to make that thing, in addition to deep professional knowledge, you must also go through rigorous experiments. Otherwise, if you were bombed to death in the laboratory, how could I explain to Mr. Wu? How could I bear to let Sister Shuang be gone?"
"Then these... can't you teach me?" Wu Yeshuang said with her silver teeth.
"Of course I can teach you, but it's not something I can learn in a day or two." Liu Mingqi said slightly, "If you want to meet the standard of being able to make that thing, you have to learn at least two or three years."
"Two or three years?"
Wu Yeshuang breathed a sigh of relief: "What's the point of two or three years? I'll learn!"
While the two were arguing, Liu Mingjing and Qiu Xiang next to them kept silent and listened to them quarrel.
Now that the journey of the crowd is turning, Wu Yeshuang still gets what she wants, and Qiu Xiang feels relieved.
The young lady smiled on her pretty face: "Your Highness, you are really amazing. Even the female minister wants to be your apprentice."
