Quchengbaida’s scale is larger than that of the supply and marketing cooperative, with a total of two floors, and the first floor is basically filled with daily necessities.

Ding Zhiyuan's goal was very clear. After entering the door, he headed straight to the food counter on the first floor.

"Indigo? Rouge? No!" The salesperson here had never heard of these two things, but her service attitude was much better, and she asked proactively: "What is it for?"

Ding Zhiyuan couldn't hide his disappointment on his face and said, "Food additives can be used to color food."

"You said to color it." The saleswoman suddenly realized and pointed to the corner diagonally opposite: "There are people selling pigments there and making big buns. If you go over and take a look, maybe there is something you want."

When Ding Zhiyuan heard the words "big bou" and wanted to slap himself.

How could I forget this?

I'm so stupid, I'm just a fool!

The bun is called locally, but it is actually steamed buns, but the buns are made of big and round, and during the Chinese New Year, they will also print festive red patterns on the skin.

Of course, Ding Zhiyuan had eaten steamed buns, but since he went to the south to go to college, he rarely ate them. Later, he settled in the south. Not to mention steamed buns, he couldn't even eat a few steamed buns for many years.

If it weren't for the saleswoman's reminder, he wouldn't remember that there were still stuff like buns in this world.

Ding Zhiyuan didn't know if the pigment that printed red on the cake was the carmine red he was looking for, but since there was a counter specializing in selling this kind of pigment, it was very likely that there would be carmine red and indigo.

Damn, let alone the top 100, even the supply and marketing cooperatives sell this thing. Even when the rural market is in the market, there are hawkers selling this thing.

Thinking of this, Ding Zhiyuan was excited and thanked him repeatedly, and quickly turned around to the counter selling paints.

God pays off on his own, and he really found carmine and indigo at the paint counter.

Everything is ready!

...

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

After breakfast, Ding Zhiyuan rode his 28th bar and took his follower Li Weidong out. Half an hour later, he arrived at Liao Fugui's winemaking workshop.

Just like the night before yesterday, Liao Fugui was squatting at the door of the workshop smoking.

Seeing Ding Zhiyuan coming, he quickly got up and met him, "I thought you were not here."

"I've told you to come today, then I'll definitely have it." Ding Zhiyuan handed the bicycle to Li Weidong and took the bag from him.

In fact, he could have come yesterday, but in order to ensure that everything was foolproof, he locked himself at home yesterday without leaving home, not only set the process of soda, but also improved the formula.

Liao Fugui only noticed Li Weidong at this time and asked, "Who is this?"

Ding Zhiyuan put his arms around Li Weidong's shoulder and introduced: "My brother, just call him Dongzi."

Li Weidong's mouth twitched, and for the sake of money, he endured it!

"Old Liao, stop standing outside and basking in the sun. Let's go in and talk." Ding Zhiyuan stepped into the winemaking workshop first.

Liao Fugui followed two steps and suddenly felt something was wrong.

No, this is my workshop!

This little bastard really doesn't treat himself as an outsider!

Forget it, I'm tolerant for the sake of money!

This is the first time Ding Zhiyuan has actually entered Liao Fugui's winemaking workshop. Before, he just stood at the door of the workshop and looked inside, only looking at it roughly.

The workshop is not big, but it is not small either.

The fermentation pond accounts for almost one-third of the area, and dried sweet potato piles are everywhere.

Like many township enterprises today, the first impression they give is that they are dirty and messy.

The most eye-catching thing is naturally the filling machine that claims to be worth 5,000 yuan.

Ding Zhiyuan circled the filling machine twice and asked, "How to use this thing?"

Without saying a word, Liao Fugui sat in front of the filling machine to demonstrate.

The structure and principle of this thing are very simple, Ding Zhiyuan only read it once and understood it.

The upper part of the machine is a stainless steel container for liquids, with a maximum volume of 20 liters, and of course, you can also replace larger containers.

There is a vertical single-head plunger-type quantitative filling device in the center of the container. The liquid is supplied by adjusting the distance of the plunger movement. The canning range is 5-1000 ml.

Although there is no sight inside the machine, Ding Zhiyuan guessed that something like a pump must have been installed inside, using the pressure difference to quickly suck the liquid in the upper container into the filling device.

The method of use is also very simple. There is a foot pedal like a car brake at the bottom, which is connected to the filling machine with a wire. After turning on the power, press the foot pedal once and then can be packed once.

Liao Fugui asked proudly: "How is it, is it okay?"

"Well, it's better than I thought." Ding Zhiyuan touched his chin and said, "You told me that night that you can hold up to 1,200 bottles in an hour. It's about a 500ml bottle, right? What if it were replaced with a 250ml soda bottle?"

"This..." Liao Fugui hesitated for two seconds and said with some uncertainty: "It must be only more or less, but I really don't know how much or more. Why don't I try it?"

"No need to do it for now." Ding Zhiyuan said casually, in fact, he could figure out a rough idea without trying.

Canned 1,200 500ml bottles in one hour, one for about 3 seconds.

If you change it to a 250 ml bottle, the time must not be divided directly by two.

Because whether it is a 500 ml bottle or a 250 ml bottle, the time it takes from picking up the bottle and placing it at the discharge port is almost the same.

Assuming it takes 1 second to hold the bottle, then the time it takes to can a 500ml bottle is 2 seconds. This is actually the time it takes for the pump to absorb and discharge the material.

However, the speed of the pump is not constant. After power on, the pump speed must first be accelerated. After a while, the speed will stabilize. After power off, the pump will rotate for a while under the action of inertia.

Just like driving a car, a distance of 500 meters and a distance of 1,000 meters start from a stationary state to accelerate to the same speed, and then drive to the end point and stop just in time. The time required is definitely not a 1:2 relationship.

The time required for the former is obviously greater than one-half of the latter.

And so on, the time it takes to can a 250ml bottle is between 1 and 2 seconds, the intermediate value is 1.5 seconds, and the time to hold the bottle is 2.5 seconds in total.

In this way, a 250 ml bottle can be canned in more than 1,440 per hour, and it is nearly 24 hours a day.

A bottle of gross profit is 4 cents. Good luck, the gross profit is nearly 1,440,000 a day, 420,000 a month, and 500,000 a year!

However, the accounts cannot be settled in this way.

The peak season for soda sales is at most three or four months in the year. It is now mid-July, and only one and a half months to September.

Ding Zhiyuan thinks it is already very good to make 50,000 or 60,000 yuan.

Time is money, and Ding Zhiyuan has truly understood the true meaning of this sentence at this moment.
Chapter completed!
