Rebirth 1975: Tore up the call-back order at the beginning

Qingcheng. Project Department!

In the cafeteria, including Nie Nansun, Yang Donghai and other project leaders, all gathered around a big desk, staring closely at Zhou Yang who was busy.

At this time, Zhou Yang and several lesbians were counting the ingredients in front of them.

"Egg whites, white sugar, butter, potato starch, milk..."

After checking the ingredients and the list of ingredients in front of me one by one, I found that all the ingredients were prepared.

Then Zhou Yang began to check various tools. Apart from the common pots and pans, some of them were relatively new, such as Zhou Yang’s homemade small tools for extracting egg yolks, and molds borrowed from popsicle factories. That bundle of sticks...

After confirming that all the ingredients and production tools are in place, Zhou Yang immediately said to the lesbians next to him: "Next, I will teach you how to make ice cream. The first step is to make cream!"

As he said that, Zhou Yang took out a white enamel basin, and then cracked all the dozen or so eggs in front of him into the basin, but only the egg whites, not the yolks.

After removing the egg yolks, Zhou Yang immediately put white sugar into the basin, stirred them evenly, and then put them into hot water to heat over water.

"Attention, the water temperature should not be too high when heating. The purpose of this step is to accelerate the melting of white sugar. If the water temperature is too high, it will easily make the egg white solidify."

While talking, Zhou Yang kept beating the egg whites with his homemade egg beater. After beating for a while, he added butter and continued beating, and the speed of beating became faster and faster.

While Zhou Yang was stirring, everyone kept their eyes on the enamel basin on the noodle table, and soon they discovered that the egg white, white sugar, butter and other things in the enamel basin gradually turned into a milky white thick object.

In this way, Zhou Yang stirred quickly for several minutes, and he didn't stop until his palms and wrists felt a little sore. The simple cream was ready.

Looking at the half-basin pot of butter in front of him, Zhou Yang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he didn't expect that it would take so much effort to make a simple butter.Sure enough, this professional thing should be done by professional people, it is really too difficult for laymen to do it.

I scooped a little with a small spoon and tasted it in my mouth. The taste was so-so, not bad compared to the cream I had eaten before.

This workmanship must be close, but the advantage is that the material is solid.

At that moment Zhou Yang said again: "Now proceed to the second step of making ice cream, watch carefully!"

While talking, Zhou Yang put all the butter into the big iron pot, then poured in half a bucket of fresh milk and a certain proportion of potato starch, and started to gurgle on a low heat. During the cooking process, Zhou Yang kept stirring the bottom of the pot with a spatula, Prevent sticky bottom.

This process lasted for about ten minutes. When all the ingredients were boiled until thick and the liquid volume dropped by about one centimeter compared to the initial one, Zhou Yang, who felt that it was almost done, immediately turned off the fire.

Then he asked people to bring the molds that had been made in advance, scooped the thick objects in the pot into the molds one by one with a small spoon, and inserted the small wooden sticks he bought.

After installing a mold, Zhou Yang asked the lesbians next to him to pour the mold, while he took the assembled mold outside to freeze it.

In fact, according to the normal process, after the mold is installed, it should be frozen in the refrigerator for a few hours, and then it can be eaten.

But right now, Saibei itself is a large refrigerator, and the outdoor temperature can reach minus [-] degrees, so there is no need for a refrigerator at all. You just need to put these molds outside for ten minutes and they will freeze hard.

Dozens of popsicle moulds, each of which has 10 slots, can make 10 popsicles at the same time.

In other words, this time, Zhou Yang and the others made hundreds of cream ice creams.

When the last mold was installed, more than half an hour had passed, and the first few molds that were taken out were almost frozen.

Without hesitation, Zhou Yang took several molds into the house, and then opened one of them under the gaze of everyone.

The moment it was opened, ten things that looked like popsicles and ice cream appeared in front of everyone.

Zhou Yang took out these ice creams one by one and distributed them to Nie Nansun, Yang Donghai, Niu Weitong and others, and he kept one for himself.

And other staff members also opened the remaining molds and divided the ice cream inside.

"Try the first batch of cream ice cream we tried to make, and everyone will give us your opinions!"

As soon as Zhou Yang's words fell, Nie Nansun echoed and said, "Yes, everyone, try it and see if this gadget can be sold!"

With Nie Nansun's greeting, everyone no longer hesitated, and immediately tasted the ice cream in their hands.

Soon, there was a burst of exclamation in the cafeteria:

"Hey, this thing is different from the old popsicles, it's so delicious!"

"Ice is cold, sweet and soft, much better than old popsicles!"

"It's a bit like the beauty brand ice cream sold in old Shanghai before, but it's a little different. There's no ice scum in it..."

When everyone was amazed again and again, Zhou Yang felt that the taste was so-so, and it could only be described as so-so.

The creamy ice cream in his hand tastes soft and glutinous, relatively refreshing. It can indeed beat those old popsicles, but it is still a little bit different from the 504 big ice cream in Zhou Yang's memory.

This gap is not in the raw materials, but in the production process, especially in the process of making cream.

You must know that the reason why Factory 504 makes ice cream is mainly because it is convenient for them to produce cream. After all, the enriched uranium production factory can directly be used as a productive machine, and only the centrifuge in the factory is there.

The centrifuge is the most common machine and equipment in the production process of enriched uranium. It mainly separates the uranium element, and its speed can reach tens of thousands or even 10,000+ revolutions per minute.

Using a centrifuge to produce cream is like shooting mosquitoes with an anti-aircraft gun, and the effect is not good.

Therefore, the cream made by the high-speed centrifuge in the 504 factory has a pure and dense taste, which is not inferior to those "foreign creams" abroad, not to mention the taste of cream ice cream made with this kind of cream.

Ever since, the 504 enriched uranium production plant was quickly transformed into a veritable 504 ice cream factory.

In contrast, although the creamy ice cream they made by hand can still taste decent, there is still a big gap compared with it.

But even so, it was unanimously praised by the comrades present.

After collecting the comments and opinions of everyone present, Nie Nansun and Yang Donghai took Zhou Yang back to the office.

As soon as he entered the door, Nie Nansun couldn't wait to ask: "You are such a genius, you can make such delicious ice cream with such a few simple ingredients, amazing!"

Zhou Yang smiled and asked, "Now do you always think that the cream ice cream we made can be sold?"

"The taste is good, but whether you can sell it or not depends on the price. How much do you plan to sell for a piece?" Nie Nansun asked.

"How about 2 cents!"

Nie Nansun thought for a while and said: "It's okay, after all, old popsicles can be sold for 5 cents a piece, but is it worth 2 cents a piece? I think it's eggs and milk. , and sugar and butter, they are all good things!"

"Of course I made money. I spent about 40 yuan on those things today, but I made more than 450 ice creams. The cost is less than a dime!"

Then Zhou Yang continued: "However, this is just a trial production. Once it is mass-produced, the cost will be further reduced. Even if artificial water and electricity are included, I estimate that the cost of one will not exceed 8 cents."

"The cost is 8 cents, we sell it for 1 cents, and the profit is 2 cent and [-] cents per stick..."

Before the words were finished, Zhou Yang said: "Twenty cents for retail, but if you want to wholesale the goods, the price has to be reduced, and it will be reduced to between fifteen cents and eighteen cents each!"

"This... wouldn't the profit be less?" Nie Nansun said.

"Hehe, the profit is small but the output can't stand the high output. Even a small workshop can easily produce tens of thousands of roots a day. What this thing makes is a small profit but quick turnover!" Zhou Yang said.

Hearing this, Nie Nansun and Yang Donghai couldn't help but secretly calculated in their hearts. The profit of one piece is about ten cents, and if 1000 pieces are produced a day, that is a profit of [-] yuan.

A month is 3 yuan, and a year's net profit is as high as 36...

Thinking of this, both of them couldn't help getting excited.

"Then what are you waiting for, let's quickly mobilize people to do it!"

"Okay, I'll make a list of the equipment I need, hurry up and get the things, and then find some lesbians to start trial production!" Zhou Yang said.

"Row..."
