The newly recruited workers were intensively trained for ten days. At the beginning of September, the factory started to work and the workers officially started working for production.
This year, the yield of Bangchui in the first field was still good. These were only treated with bean cake water once and foliar fertilizer was added twice.
Starting next year, those will be base fertilizer and top dressing. It is estimated that the yield will be higher next year.
The ginseng is taken out and transported directly to the processing plant. After the ginseng is brushed and sanded away by a machine, a dedicated person selects the ginseng suitable for making honey slices.
The requirements are that a single tree should weigh one and a half to two and a half, and the main body should be round and without unnecessary branches.
The selected ginseng is sent to the honey slice workshop. The ginseng reed heads are cut off first, and then the ginseng is cut into slices of a certain thickness by a machine.
Both the reed heads and ginseng roots are returned to the processing factory. The ginseng roots are steamed, processed and sold, and the saponins can be extracted from the reed heads.
Cut ginseng slices should be soaked in fine linden honey for a certain period of time.
Then fish it out from the honey, put it in a steaming pot, and steam it under a certain pressure at 45 degrees Celsius.
The steamed ginseng slices are then immersed in a medicinal liquid prepared with several traditional Chinese medicines for a certain period of time.
Take it out and mix it with honey again, put it into a container and store it. After a certain period of time, it can be packaged and shipped.
So even though it is just a small piece of ginseng, it does require a lot of work.
Although it is not as exaggerated as the dozens of processes Xu Shiyan said, there are still more than a dozen.
The honey chip workshop is required to be clean and dust-free. Workshop staff must wear white overalls, white hats, masks, and special rubber gloves on their hands.
Female workers cut their hair short to prevent long hair from getting caught in the machine and causing accidental injuries, and to prevent hair from falling out and affecting product quality.
Workers who have passed the training and assessment can get started quickly after becoming familiar with the operating procedures.
The honey chip workshop quickly got on track, and Xu Shiyan had to pack his luggage quickly. He had to go to school in the provincial capital.
There were two other people who went to the provincial capital to study with Xu Shiyan, Li Chengrong and his secretary Xiao Peng.
These two went to the Provincial Normal University to study foreign languages.
When he went to attend the Spring Fair before, Lin Qiyue found that it was inconvenient to not understand a foreign language and not have a trustworthy translator around him.
Since a company wants to develop through export and earn foreign exchange, it must have its own foreign language professionals, otherwise it will be easy to fall into the trap.
So Lin Qiyue specially applied to his superiors and arranged for the two of them to study in the foreign language major of the Normal University.
No way, there is no specialized foreign language university in the province, so I can only go to the Normal University.
On the morning of the 19th, Zhou Guilan rolled the noodles with her own hands and asked Xu Shiyan and his family to come over and eat them.
"Welcoming dumplings to see you off, eat noodles before going out, everything goes smoothly. San'er, eat more."
Zhou Guilan muttered while serving noodles to her son.
"Hey, I got it, Mom." Xu Shiyan took a large bowl of noodles from his mother.
"Mom, why don't you sit down and eat? You're tired from getting up early in the morning and working hard."
Su Anying saw that her mother-in-law had finished serving noodles to her husband and was about to serve them to others, so she hurriedly took them.
"When Shi Yan goes out, you can just hold it for him, and I'll take care of the others."
My mother-in-law has been busy all morning, how can I still ask her to serve rice?
The noodles rolled by Zhou Guilan are excellent. Eggs, alkali, and salt are used to mix the noodles. The noodles are rolled into thin slices and finely chopped.
Xu Shiyan went out to study, so he cooked clear soup noodles.
Zhou Guilan said that after eating like this, my mind will be clear and I can study hard.
Noodles in muddy soup will stick to the lake. If you eat them, you will be in trouble, so it must be noodles in clear soup.
Although it may look like clear soup noodles, it is not simple at all.
Boil the water, put it into a bowl, pour a spoonful of bone soup made from big bones, and add some deboned pork, fried peanuts, chopped pickles, chopped green onions, and coriander.
The clear soup has oily flowers floating on it and is fragrant. This noodle can be eaten open and can make three large bowls.
Xu Haiyuan and others all drooled with greed. They took the bowls and started making them, "Grandma, the noodles you made are so delicious. It's great."
With my mouth full of noodles, I didn’t forget to praise my grandma and give her a thumbs up.
The two younger ones also followed suit and said, "Great, great, delicious." They said while extending their thumbs.
Zhou Guilan was so happy that her eyes narrowed, "I like it. Grandma will make it when I have time."
Eat slowly, and after eating, you two should go to school quickly and study hard. You see, dad is going to college."
Xu Haiyuan and Xu Jinping nodded heavily, "Dad, you have to study hard and don't be lazy. When we grow up, we will also take the college entrance examination."
"Okay, dad will definitely study hard and set a good example for you."
Xu Shiyan smiled, stretched out his hand and pinched the little cheeks of his son and daughter.
"You should be good at home, listen to grandma, and don't make trouble for grandma."
Several children responded in unison, ensuring that they would behave and not cause trouble.
After breakfast, Xu Haiyuan and Xu Jinping went to school with their schoolbags on their backs. Xu Shiyan also packed and checked his luggage to make sure it was OK.
Just at this time, there was a sound of a car honking its horn outside the door. Needless to say, it must have been a car dispatched to take Xu Shiyan to the train station.
Xu Shiyan quickly went out to get his luggage, and Su Anying helped carry two bags and sent them out the door.
Sure enough, he saw two jeeps parked outside the gate. Li Chengrong jumped out of the car and helped Xu Shiyan put his luggage in the car. He also turned around and said a few words to Su Anhua.
After all the luggage was loaded into the car, Xu Shiyan looked back at his family and said, "Mom, Dad, I'm leaving, don't worry about me.
Yingzi, I will leave the house to you for the time being. Pay more attention to the breeding farm. If anything happens, I will call there."
At the breeding farm, I applied for a telephone a while ago and it was installed just a few days ago, mainly for the convenience of future contact.
Xu Shiyan got into the jeep, waved to his family, started the car, and took several people away from Donggang, heading north.
Xu Chenghou and his wife stood outside the gate, watching the jeep disappear in an instant, feeling both happy and reluctant to leave.
"Brother Xu, what are you doing so early in the morning?"
Someone was passing by and saw the Xu family standing outside the gate looking north. They felt strange and asked.
"My son has gone to college in the provincial capital. A car came to pick him up just now." Xu Chenghou turned around and said half to show off and half to sigh.
"No matter how old I am, I will always think about my son as soon as he goes out. Children are still children no matter how old they are."
"That's right. Hey, brother Xu is very lucky. Among his five sons, two are in college, which is really good."
It was originally a good friend who was asking around, but Xu Chenghou showed off.
The man smacked his lips, shook his head, and left quickly. Why not leave? Do you think Xu Chenghou is showing off here?
Seeing the man leaving in a hurry, Zhou Guilan couldn't help but give her husband a look.
"You show off all day long, but your son is promising, so I'll give you a pretty one.
Isn't it time that you despised your son for being hopeless and scolded him all day long?"
The old lady has long disliked Xu Chenghou, and today she deliberately attacked him.
Xu Chenghou blushed and said, "Look, you didn't pick up any of the pots. That was so many years ago.
Let’s forget about the old sesame and rotten millet, right?”
