Great changes in the countryside

Chapter 163 Production went smoothly
32 bars of soap per set of molds, are glued together and need to be cut.

Teacher Sun demonstrated in person with a knife, cutting slowly from top to bottom.

Cut soap, one by one, wrapped in paper, and then delivered to the house for storage.

Even if the whole soap making process is basically completed.

Teacher Sun asked for formal production.

With Chen Yang's order, the whole family mobilized.

This time, the production volume was double that of the trial production.The raw materials for input include two kilograms of caustic soda, eight kilograms of distilled water, and twenty kilograms of olive oil.

Mr. Sun was watching from the side. When adding distilled water, he operated it himself and added an extra kilogram.

Teacher Sun also thought that the stirring action was wrong, so he kept correcting the elder sister and the second younger brother with his throat tearing.

Seeing his hands itching, Teacher Sun even tried to do it himself, but he couldn't stop it.

This is mainly grandpa, who works like a young man, which greatly encouraged Mr. Sun.

On four shelves, four sets of molds are filled with saponification solution.

The two brothers drank at night, and they were so happy.

What I drank was my grandfather's newly brewed rice wine.

Grandpa revealed the truth to Sun Laogu, saying that he had brewed more than 30 altars of rice wine this year.

Teacher Sun asked for wine, and he asked for ten altars.

Grandpa patted his chest and agreed.

Both brothers drank.

Chen Yang went down to the river at night, caught some fish and shrimp, and used it to entertain Mr. Sun and Mr. Wu.

On the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, the whole family went out to make rice cakes and mochi.

Chen Yang's family has rice scoops and steamers, and there are a lot of people, so it's easy to make handmade rice cakes and mochi.

220 catties of rice cakes and [-] catties of mochi kept the whole family busy all day.

I don’t forget to make soap while making rice cakes. At the same time, I made another [-] kilograms of soap today.

Chen Yang wrote a letter to Wang Guangrong, reporting the production situation and confirming that at least [-] bars of soap could be produced before the Spring Festival.

Chen Yang requested that the paper packaging box must be in place in time after the Spring Festival, and he promised to deliver the goods after the Spring Festival.

Teacher Sun and Teacher Wu also went home.

Fifty catties of rice cakes, thirty catties of mochi, and ten jars of rice wine were transported to Chengguan Town by shuttle boat, and then the old couple hired a car to transport them home.

Under the guidance of Mr. Sun, many improvements have been made to the craft and tools.

Especially the water tank for storing raw materials is too bulky. Teacher Sun suggested using plastic buckets.

At that time, plastic buckets were a rarity, not even available.

Wang Guangrong wrote back to Chen Yang.

The letter was also delivered by Captain Zheng of the liner.

Wang Guangrong suggested that Chen Yang go to Luqiao before the Spring Festival.On the one hand, shipping back the paper box.On the other hand, buy more raw materials to ensure production during the Spring Festival.

Chen Yang brought a full 2000 yuan, a bicycle, and his second brother Chen Bing to Luqiao on the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month.

After a busy day, Chen Yang not only bought the raw materials, but also got the paper packing box and six plastic barrels.

Wang Guangrong took special care of Chen Yang. Although he knew that Chen Yang was rich and could turn over funds, he still paid 2000 yuan in advance.

Chen Yang was willing to let it go. Wang Guangrong paid 2000 yuan in advance, plus the 2000 yuan he brought, and bought all the raw materials.

Almost half of the cargo ship on the liner was filled with Chen Yang's raw materials.

Because of loading and unloading Chen Yang's raw materials, the liner was delayed for half an hour.

When the shuttle boat arrived at Chenjiacun Wharf, Chen Yang asked his elder sister to call some helpers, but the boat was delayed for another ten minutes.

Chen Yang was embarrassed, and after paying the shipping fee, he gave him another five yuan and six packs of cigarettes.

Here, in addition to his own handcart, Tong Xiaolong and Tong Erzi were also asked to bring their handcart.

Three trolleys and seven or eight people worked for more than an hour to bring all the raw materials home.

In the evening, Chen Yang invited the helpers to eat and drink.
