Chapter 2060: 1 Call 0 Ying Chao King

After solving the possible troubles of Liang Shan, Chao Gai let go of his hands and feet, paid nearly a thousand years of strong labor for a large price, and took a boat directly to the water to buy the sandbars on the sandbar a dozen miles away.
This is another profiteering production base in his plan. In order to avoid possible troubles in the future, the protection must be extremely strict.
Chao Gai is rich and strong, and refuses to save on construction at all. First, two small docks were built on Xiaoshazhou, all of which were tamped with gravel and stones, not afraid of rainy or humid weather.
In addition, he uses a lot of cement made by earth method here, whether it is a pavement or a tall and strong wall, or the workshops and living facilities inside, built by all-colored earth cement, it is stronger and more moisture-proof than the brick courtyard. many.
The so-called money can make ghosts grind, building a wharf on sandbanks and roads to build public facilities is definitely not a small project. If it is replaced by the government, the same number of workers will need at least three times more time to complete the construction.
In the hands of Chao Gai, Xiaoshazhou took only a month and a half from construction to completion!
Here, the bulk of the bulk sugar he secretly acquired before was secretly transported by boat. It took a full three days to quietly transport the pounds of bulk sugar, and did not alarm any outsiders to transport to the newly built workshop in Xiaoshazhou, waiting for further Processing and purification.
That's right, another profit-making business selected by Chao Gai is the processing of raw sugar into refined sugar for sale, and the profit is quite amazing.
At this time, the loose sugar is directly boiled from the sugar-rich plants, which contains a lot of impurities, not only the color is reddish brown, but also the sweet taste with astringent is very bad.
However, the profit of the sugar industry is also quite amazing. At this time, in the Song people's tea making technology, the more mainstream one is to add sugar and cook, and the demand for raw sugar is quite large.
Even if the staff is a bit astringent, it doesn't matter. The simplest raw sugar in Chao Gai's eyes is still a profiteering industry. It is right to describe it in short supply.
What Chao Gai has to do is actually remove the impurities from the raw sugar, and boil out the crystal sugar with higher purity and near transparency.
This matter is extremely simple in modern times, and the truth is quite clear. But the raw sugar is boiled into syrup again by fire, and treated with lime or grass ash before the syrup crystallizes.
According to modern scientific principles of sugar refining, this measure is crucial for the crystallization and yield of syrup, because in addition to sucrose and water, there are some organic acid components in the sugar juice that are not very large but are very unfavorable for sucrose crystallization , They will promote the hydrolysis of sucrose to produce reducing sugars (such as glucose, fructose, etc.). Such sugars not only cannot crystallize themselves during the shelving process of cane juice, but also generate molasses (impede the crystallization of syrup, so use "ash" to neutralize or precipitate Those free acids are necessary.
Moreover, it can also precipitate some organic non-sugars, inorganic salts, and sediment suspensions, which can not only improve the taste of the syrup, but also reduce the viscosity of the syrup and make the color clear, which is also conducive to the precipitation and quality of the syrup .
Chao Gai had already done experiments before, and the results of the experiment were quite successful, using rock sugar to make rock sugar with high purity.
Although he felt disgusted, he tasted it personally. The homemade rock sugar not only had high purity and nearly transparent crystal-like crystals, but also the original bitter taste was removed, leaving only pure sweetness. The rock sugar is not much different.
The price of raw sugar alone is not low, and the price of rock sugar with extremely high purity and no bitter taste is ten times. There is no problem at all. The huge profits can be imagined.
However, Chao Gai would never eat this stuff again. Considering that it may contain traces of lime and plant ash, he felt sick for a while, and it really ruined the three views.
This stuff is really profiteering. Like salt, it is almost an essential consumable for large households and wealthy people. An industry like Jinshan is definitely exposed. Once exposed, it is likely to lead to a crazy scramble for power!
Chao Gai didn't plan to fall grass at this time, or he completely turned his face with the court of the Song Dynasty. He didn't have such strength or such a background. Besides, the days now are quite smart, there is no need to force himself into a non-mainstream existence, one The thief's name is not so easy to wear.
In addition to rock sugar, he also experimented with the production process of granulated sugar. Fortunately, during the Tang Dynasty, Huaxia already had a granulated sugar production process. What he had to do was to remove impurities in the granulated sugar.
There is no other secret method, or adding lime or plant ash. In short, the profitable sugar industry has no secrets for him. He holds a hen that can lay golden eggs.
In order to hide people's eyes and ears, the sugar workshop is naturally selected on the small sandbar in Liangshanshuipo. It is still the old method, and the final level of removal of impurities is handled by him personally.
Half a month later, the first batch of crystal-clear crystal sugar was born. Chao Gai was not in a hurry to put it on the market. Instead, all of his income was in the warehouse of Chaojiazhuang with improved protection level. All made into crystal sugar candy!
The value of the crystal sugar stored in the warehouse alone is at least tens of thousands of dollars. After a month of busy work, the value and profit generated are more than a year in the canned workshop. It can be seen that the profit is very rich.
He didn't tell anyone about this matter. Once the news leaked, it was likely to cause unnecessary trouble, or even the disaster of extinction. Chao Gai naturally and carefully concealed the secret in his heart.
Of course, he did not leave the workshop on the small and medium-sized sandbar in Shuibo vacant. He took out part of the rock sugar as a raw material, and then purchased a batch of Qingzhou specialty fruits and began to try to make canned fruits.
He made such a big movement, it was difficult to not attract attention, especially the small sandbar in the water berth, and there were often water squad warships in Liangshanshuipo wandering nearby. Obviously Wang Lun, the master of Liangshan, did not trust His remarks wanted to find out.
If you want to explore it, Chao Gai is not afraid of the oblique shadow. He did build a workshop on Xiaoshazhou, even though the protection is tight, there is nothing shady.
Liangshan Wang Lun gave up after seeing that he could not find out, and did not mean to continue to investigate. Chao Gai has behaved enough. If he doesn't know what's going on, how could it be good if Chao Gao gets angry?
Besides, Liangshan up and down are now busy catching fish and shrimp to make money. How can there be a lot of free minds to compete with others, just make sure that Chao Gai does not have the idea of ​​playing Liangshan Water Village.
Due to business dealings, the relationship between Chaojiazhuang and Liangshan, especially the relationship between the small bosses below is very good. I heard more or less of the situation inside Liangshan Water Village.
Wang Lun was really lacking in spirit. He shouted in his mouth to invite martial arts heroes to go up the mountain, but there was not much actual action, that is to say in his mouth.
Du Qian, Song Wan, and Zhu Gui and others are not very eager to invite the good hands of the rivers and lakes, and now they are all focused on catching fish and shrimp to make money.
Because of this, the hostility of Liangshan Water Village has disappeared a lot recently, and in recent months it has rarely even been dispatched to rob past merchant ships.
It's not that they suddenly changed their minds, but the input and output are not proportional. Although every injured ship grabs a lot of money, the input of the cottage is also not small. The most troublesome one is the casualty.
Before, Liangshan Water Village didn't need to worry about this. The surrounding 800-meter-long water berth, and many poor villages along the coast, Liangshan wanted to recruit people very easily.
But now it is different. Chaojiazhuang suddenly bought fresh fish and shrimp, which provided a way of making money to the fishing villages around Liangshanshuipo. Every day, he could earn more or less hundreds of texts.
This is not a small number. It is enough for a family to live a moist and fiery life. In addition, it is also a good income to sell the local products of the family to the prosperous market near the canned workshop. The days when the two people superimpose the surrounding villagers have changed dramatically!
The words surrounding Dongxi Village and Xixi Village, as well as a large canned workshop, have now spontaneously formed a relatively prosperous market circle.
Especially near the Canned Workshop, the several commercial streets formed rely on the huge crowd and capital flow of the Big Workshop, and its rapid development is not bad.
Of course, these fast-growing bustling commercial streets were formed under Chao's planning and behind-the-scenes operations. Unlike the commercial street of this era, it is similar to and different from the pedestrian street of later generations. In short, it has gradually become the main trading market for fishermen around.
By the way, these rapidly rising commercial streets are all covered with land. That is to say, everything here has been written by him. Even if the government comes out, it will not be a big deal. Chao Gai was helpless.
Before, he promised to give Yuncheng county magistrate six thousand yuan per year, but it was not given in vain~EbookFREE.me~ But the county government must help him with all matters related to canning workshops. Of course, this refers to normal business and life contentment. If someone wants to find something by secret means, he is not afraid at all.
At this time, Chao Gai, after nearly a year of accumulation and relying on the simple industrial chain that appeared in canned production, has become the veritable first richest man in the entire Yuncheng County, and also has great prestige in the private sector. The existence of the Yuncheng earthquake.
If there is no way, the county town will not say anything. The number of people who depend on him outside the city alone is tens of thousands. Once Chao Gai’s interests are damaged, it is these people who are the first to react violently.
Unless they encounter such force majeure factors as natural disasters, if anyone dares to break their financial path, they will be able to directly cut off the life of others!
Even if ordinary people don’t have the courage to pick things up, don’t forget that there is Liang Shan who shares common economic interests with Chao. They will not be afraid of any government revenge. If they dare to cut off their huge financial resources, they will dare to cut them hard. Cut off his claws!
Chao Xiao’s reputation at the outskirts of Yuncheng at this time can be described as the sun and the sky, and every response is light. If necessary, he always has the ability of the Song Dynasty's Tubing to see the people’s war and the sea, of course, only in Yuncheng...
