The Death Knight of the Secret World

Chapter 32 0032. Canning Production Line

In the next few days, Beomi's life was quite good, because the deputy director's wife greeted her, and the deputy director also acquiesced in the fishing behavior of Alan, a good-for-nothing nephew.

In the past week, Clerk Beckman has gone out to work more times than other civilian staff in a month.And every time I go out, I will be shouted and hugged. Not only are there professional drivers driving, but there are also professional documents to help settle accounts, and professional dog legs to help spend money...

The professional coachman is the adopted son of the Beckman family steward, the taciturn but tall Bob, this seemingly stable young man actually has a slight stutter, so he doesn't like to talk much.

In addition to not being talkative, Bob works hard, not only driving a carriage, but also lighting a fire, killing sheep, grilling fish, making traps to catch rabbits and pheasants, and so on.In short, apart from not being talkative, this is a good dog leg.

But Allen usually doesn't like to take him out, because he doesn't have the potential to be an excellent follower at all.The original plan of the old housekeeper to adopt him was to train him to share some subordinate business, but after several years of training, he found helplessly: instead of an excellent trainee housekeeper, there appeared a hard-working driver...

And Harry, a clever young man, originally had the potential to become a qualified follower. Unfortunately, Harry was trained by the Black family, and it is unlikely that he would be given to the Beckman family.

If it weren't for Beomy's invention of canned food, a cash cow with potential as a commodity, it would be unlikely for the Black family to throw out a clever young man to mess around with Alan.

Under normal circumstances, a traverser like Beomi is a rare species among rare species, and it is even less likely to be a follower of a waste second generation ancestor.

Therefore, if there was no such accident as Beomi, Allen's life would basically stop at a waste. At most, he would be a stallion and give birth to a few more sons to be his nephew who will inherit the family business in the future. helper.

It can be said that it was the appearance of Beomi that made Alan evolve into a qualified playboy with chic capital and possibilities.

During this week, Allen received sufficient financial support, and he was able to buy a bunch of things every now and then, and when he came back, he would waste them for fun.

What fruit, what seafood, what meat, spices, equipment that can purify pigments, beakers and test tubes for purifying additives... Anyway, Beomi doesn't feel bad about spending money.

As for going out to surf during working hours, fishing, hunting, and barbecue outside the city... isn't it all for work.

Anyway, Alan had a great time playing, Bob had a great time eating, and Harry, a simple and kind boy, also learned a lot of useful and useless special skills from Beomi.

The final results are also gratifying. Beomi has successfully extracted several food coloring additives and sweeteners, as well as preservative additives that have not been reported.

By the way, I also made several canned meats, such as hairtail fish, yellow croaker, sauced beef, and stewed beef.Once packed in a tin-plated thin iron can, Allen can take it back and give it to his family.

As for trying it out before taking it home?Why don't you give it a try?If you don't try it, how do you know if it tastes good?If you don’t try it, how do you know if it can sell for money?

Therefore, Beomi, who went home for more than a dozen catties of beef and a pile of fish for nothing to improve Almin's food, felt: This is not a problem!

He didn't bring [canned products] back with him, did he?The ones he brought were all [failed experimental products], or [defective products] caused by wrong production ideas.

Moreover, he greeted Allen, and he didn't take it secretly. He, Beomi, has a clear conscience!
As for buying all kinds of seasonings and spices with a lot of money, isn't that all for trying out canned products? These all belong to [R&D investment]!
Although Beomi’s kind of property is to slowly reverse engineer [restore] the finished product with various materials after she has a rough answer and result in her heart, which is considered cheating.

But whether you believe it or not, even if you give the idea to the members of the Loen royal family now, they may not be able to produce qualified canned products if they spend ten times and a hundred times more money.

Beomi saved money for the Beckman family, or saved a lot of money.So eat a little of them, take a little of them, isn't that what it should be?
So, when Almin was eating all kinds of sauced beef and marinated beef at home and felt sick, several members of the Beckman family looked at the piles of Lao Gao's cans in the family meeting hall, and fell into deep thought.

"So, these are the results you have made in the past few days?" Old Sir Beckman rarely sat in the main seat and issued orders, but turned around in the hall to look at the cans brought back by his useless grandson.

They were all tin cans, because Beomie didn't like the kind that used a can opener, he thought it was cumbersome to use.So, he went straight to Griph.

Fried hairtail, fried yellow croaker, braised scallops, braised octopus silk, braised shrimp... There is also a kind of black bean fish that Beomi likes. There are six or seven piles, and there are about fifty or sixty cans in one pile. Look, it looks pretty decent when stacked on the table.

On the other side, several kinds of canned beef mainly made of beef from the local cattle of the Loen Kingdom were also piled high, and there were five or six pyramids of canned food in iron boxes, which seemed to have a good visual effect.

"Yes, this has been accomplished through our unremitting efforts this week!" Alan followed behind the old man happily.

"Have you tried it?" The old man's old face showed no joy or anger, but his falcon-like eyes were shining brightly.

"I've tried it, I'm so full!" Allen thought about the past few days of tasting experience, it was really, really...

In the past two days, he praised Beomi's craftsmanship with pride, and the beef cooked by the best chefs in Backlund's noble families was even better. He could eat several cans by himself.

Then Baomi smiled: eat more if it tastes good!
As a result, in the next few days, Allen was forced to eat seven or eight cans of various flavors every day, not only to eat, but also to write thoughts, make suggestions, and make conclusions.It made Harry feel dizzy writing [tasting experience] every day, and he had to write three copies at the same time, and the handwriting could not be the same, because Alan didn't want to write, and Bob couldn't write, so... just Let Harry do the work.

"Tomorrow, Beomi is going to try to make a canned luncheon meat, so new products will appear slowly in the future!" Allen reported the progress of the work according to the script.

"Luncheon meat?" Romeo, the eldest son of the Beckman family, asked a little puzzled, "What is that?"

"It's... something made with a small amount of meat and a lot of starch!" Alan remembered the strange food he tasted today, and tried to describe it: "It's similar to meat, but it's not exactly meat. It can be eaten directly. Eat it, it tastes good when baked, and it’s also good when fried!"

"Then why not just use the meat directly?" The red-haired Elsa fiddled with the tab on the top of the can, a little curious about how to open this thing.

"Beomi said that this is a meat substitute, the price can be set a little lower, and it is used to open up the low-end market."

Allen remembered the scene where he was scolded by Beomi when he asked this question today, and then added: "After all, in terms of the consumption power of ordinary people today, meat is not a food that can be eaten often. .”

Elsa nodded and accepted the statement.

"In other words, its cost... is also lower?" Romeo grasped the point of the question.

"It's about one-fifth to one-third of the meat!" Allen thought about it carefully. He really couldn't remember the details of Beomi and Harry's settlement, but only a rough idea.

"We can set the price at about two-thirds of the meat price, which is convenient for the market to accept!"

"That's quite profitable." Romeo nodded, feeling that there is such a product that fills the gap between meat and grains, and it can indeed make a lot of money.

"Yes, the most profitable thing is actually this luncheon meat. If its cost is operated on a mechanized assembly line, it can be controlled at [-] to [-]% of the meat!" Allen finally remembered Beomi's words and began to repeat .

"As for pure meat and canned fish, their main customer groups should be positioned above the middle class, because people who can afford them don't mind buying meat and making it themselves. What we do is to make meat simple After processing, it is sold to customers in the form of finished products. The profit is not particularly high. What we earn is actually what they think is the processing fee, and the processing fee can be kept very low if we use a large-scale assembly line operation. Low."

"After all, the fuel we use to cook one pound of meat and ten pounds of meat is not ten times the difference. It may only be two to three times, and if the process design is reasonable, the consumption can be reduced even lower! "

"In the process of processing, the most profitable thing is the difference in seasonings. After all, the waste rate of seasonings used to make a meal is about 90.00%. We just make full use of the wasted seasonings, and You can make a lot of money."

"So, industrialized assembly line operation is the biggest way to make money in the food processing industry!"

"What a wonderful exposition!" Old Sir Beckman nodded in approval.

"Romeo, go see Mr. Corleone tomorrow! Remember to bring your eyes and ears with you!" the old jazz pointed out.

"Okay, grandpa!" Romeo nodded solemnly. In fact, he also wanted to meet Beomi, this amazing little friend.

Because, Romeo had heard similar conclusions from Duke Downing's senior staff, and it was still an incomplete version.
