Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 161 Soap
Qiao Mi nodded slightly, "Okay, the well is not too far from here, you can go twice a day."

In the early morning, the man outside the door finally sent in a detailed document. Qin Zhiyuan couldn't help raising his eyebrows after a rough look. He didn't expect this man to be quite good at it. After classifying and compiling a form, it was done very neatly, as long as the general information is clear at a glance, Qin Zhiyuan took out a pen and drew a few circles on the information to separate these people. Those who can come in directly, and those who need to be inspected one by one, those people have to be dragged to the coal mine first.

Because more than 200 people were added to the base at once, and the labor force was sufficient at once. In order to alleviate the employment pressure, the base had to start more industries. Now the paper mill led by Joe's father has already pulled up the shelf, but as for arriving It is still a matter of when we can actually use the white paper produced by ourselves, but the steps have already been taken. As long as we make unremitting efforts, success will only happen sooner or later.

Mother Qiao also selected many old ladies to form a team of teachers to expand the school at the base. After a year of education, eight little ones including Xiao Tianyou have successfully graduated from kindergarten. With the opening of elementary school and middle school plus more than 20 children who joined later, the scale of this school is quite considerable.

In her spare time, Mother Qiao taught these children how to weave things. Starting from weaving straw baskets, she made all kinds of household utensils, and took them to the kitchen to exchange work points. Not to mention that these small straw weaving objects are really popular. A lot of tableware is made of porcelain, and there is always consumption. If you break one, you will lose one. Therefore, these rough and strong straw woven plates and baskets are welcomed by people. It is very convenient to hold a steamed bun or a cake.

And what is being built on the base is a textile factory, yes, it is a textile factory, because most of the women who joined later are employees of the Lou City Woolen Factory. Although they can’t make machines, they can knit sweaters. Although there is nothing now, Qiao Miwei has allocated a place for them to grow cotton, and promised to find sheep breeds for them. By then, this place will be a large factory integrating planting, processing and sales of clothing. Of course, all of this is temporary. Imagine, so at present these female workers can only grow cotton in the fields with hoes.

And Wu Dongwei and his father also pulled together a group of people to build a furniture factory. In the future, the situation of the empty bedrooms in the base will be greatly improved. They got up and established a cooperative, in which all poultry are raised, and their families also have supporting factories, which specialize in the production of canned food.

There are also a group of college students among the newcomers. Although these people are inexperienced, they have solid theoretical knowledge. They signed an agreement with the cooperative to collect the waste and fat from the poultry slaughtered by them, and plan to start a chemical industry. The factory produces soap and other things, which Qiao Miwei has wanted for a long time.So when she heard that someone approached Qin Zhiyuan to apply for opening a chemical plant, she began to pay attention.

Every day, she watched those young people go around for alms, collecting a lot of broken pots, bowls, knives, broken bricks, pots, etc. At first she thought it was funny, these college students still thought they were in the laboratory ?What is the use of taking these things?

Only a few days later, these people built a simple stove with broken bricks, searched a lot of firewood, and then began to cook the animal offal from the cooperative. When the smelly and fishy smell wafted out , Qiao Miwei couldn't help turning her head and vomited. After that, she walked around those college students every time. It didn't take long for Qin Zhiyuan to receive complaints from many people, accusing those college students of sabotage. , polluted the air in the base, Qin Zhiyuan himself is very supportive of these college students conducting experiments, and he also knows that the smell of the chemical plant will definitely not be that good, but knowing it is different from experiencing it personally, after he has been smoked a few times When he couldn't hold back the last time, he had to admit that these people were too troublesome and made the base a mess, so he called the leaders of these college students for questioning. His original intention was to let these people first The test has stopped. As for when it will be opened again and where it will be opened, it will be a matter of the future.

But before Qin Zhiyuan opened his mouth, this college student named Yan Ming stared at Qin Zhiyuan with stars in his eyes.

Qin Zhiyuan took two steps back silently, cleared his throat and said, "Do you have something to say?"

Yan Ming nodded fiercely, "Yes."

"Cough." Qin Zhiyuan turned his body slightly, "Then let's talk."

Yan Ming hurriedly picked up the water basin next to him and went outside to fetch the basin of water, brought it back, put it on the table in front of Qin Zhiyuan, and said with a smile, "Please wash your hands."

Qin Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hands and inserted them into the water basin, depending on what kind of tricks you have, Yan Ming looked at them for a while with his hands behind his back, until he saw that Qin Zhiyuan's hands were about to be taken out, he put the things in his palms Take it out and hold it in both hands and hand it to Qin Zhiyuan, "Try."

Qin Zhiyuan's eyes lit up when he saw the square soap, "Try?"

Yan Ming nodded vigorously, "Try!"

Qin Zhiyuan picked up the soap and rubbed it back and forth twice in his hand, immediately there were slippery soap bubbles, he rubbed the palm of his hand and the back of his hand carefully, then washed it with water, then took his hand under his nose and smelled it, The smell is not very bad, but there is a fishy smell, but the washing is very clean and refreshing, he smiled and patted Yan Ming's shoulder, leaving a wet handprint on his clothes, "Yes, continue Work hard, each piece of soap sells for fifteen work points, the price is the same, and your daily work points will be paid accordingly, not only soap, but you can also think about other things, oh, and shampoo."

Yan Ming first heard that each piece of soap could be sold for fifteen work points. At that time, his molars were exposed from laughing, but when he heard that the leader wanted shampoo, he turned into a bitter face, "Shampoo... this is the same as soap. It's a completely different thing, and it's too difficult with the current craft."

Qin Zhiyuan nodded, "I know it's difficult, but you are technicians and people with knowledge. In the future, when the base gets better and better, we will get you whatever you need. Take your time, we have dreams. " Qin Zhiyuan felt that his official airs were quite good.

It's a pity that it's hard to live with Yan Ming, who is the most rigorous when it comes to technology, one is one and the other is two, let alone a year or a half, even five or eight years may not be able to produce shampoo, he resists Qin Zhiyuan's ardent He didn’t dare to nod his head, but when he thought about washing their hair and asking for rice water from the kitchen, a light bulb suddenly lit up in his mind, “By the way, we can study and use pure natural plant extracts to extract A substance that can be used to make shampoo!" Yan Ming ran out as soon as he finished speaking, obviously he was looking for his classmates.

Qin Zhiyuan sat on the spot and took a look at the bar of soap, then wrapped it in a paper and got up to go out, he would not miss such a good opportunity to be courteous, Wei Wei complained many times, and wanted this thing long time ago.

At this time, Qiao Miwei was leading Yu Dong's group to engage in production in Taoyuan. Maybe there was a big hole in the sky of Taoyuan, and many things inside were affected by outside influences. After the fall, the biggest change is the temperature inside. The temperature in Taoyuan is definitely not the same as the [-] or [-] degrees outside every day, but the temperature has remained at around [-] degrees for several months, so Qiao Miwei prepared There is a lot of production in Taoyuan, and now she needs people, people, land, land, sunshine, water, water, and she feels sorry for herself if she doesn't hurry up to cultivate the land.

Veterans like Yu Dong were honest and willing to work, so they worked very hard when farming. Qiao Miwei even asked Wu Dongwei to make them a few rough plow sticks, and put them on the cows to plow the land. The main purpose is to help Yu Yawen cook for them. After all, doing farm work is very tiring. It is inhumane and a waste of time for them to cook by themselves when they are in the field. It is too tiring for Yu Yawen to cook meals for more than 20 people by herself. , so now Qiao Miwei stays in Taoyuan every day to help prepare three meals.

"Wei Wei, Wei Wei!" Qin Zhiyuan pulled his neck and called out as soon as he entered Taoyuan.

Qiao Miwei hurriedly put down the basin and walked out, "I'm here, what's wrong?"

When Qin Zhiyuan saw Qiao Miwei, he ran up to her in a few steps, imitating the strict manner, holding the soap with both hands and handing it to Qiao Miwei, "Look at what this is?"

Qiao Mi looked down slightly, and said in surprise, "It's soap!"

Qin Zhiyuan nodded vigorously, with an expression as if he made the soap, "How about it, try it quickly."

Qiao Mi held it under his nose and smelled it, then shook his head and said, "It's not fragrant."

Qin Zhiyuan coughed and said, "This is the first bar of soap produced in our base. I haven't had time to add spices yet. It will be fragrant when I make it later."

Qiao Mi looked back and forth happily holding it, and said with a smile, "Okay, I'm satisfied with this, by the way, who made this?"

"Strictly tell them." Qin Zhiyuan said.

Qiao Mi frowned slightly, "They made it? Aren't they cooking broth there all the time? It smells so bad."

Qin Zhiyuan smiled and said, "What kind of broth is it? This soap is extracted from animal fat. Otherwise, it smells so bad. Why would they boil it?"

"What?" Hearing that the soap was extracted from animal fat grains, Qiao Miwei couldn't help throwing the soap out, but she still couldn't bear it, and squeezed her hands tightly again, but when she looked at the soap again, the expression on her face She was a little entangled, thinking that it was fished out of that big pot with a stench, and she felt that she would probably feel disgusted with using this thing.
