Datang: My father is the head bodyguard

(Likes, reminders, and comments are really important to me! Yanzu and Reba, please move your fingers!)

Changsun Chong didn't want to go see the production line, mainly because it was too troublesome to enter the production workshop, but he couldn't stand it and Changsun Wuji had never seen it before and insisted on going to see it.

Changsun Chong helped his father put on protective clothing, gloves, masks and hats. After Yuchi Baoqi dressed himself, he entered the disinfection room and started the disinfection process.

Changsun Wuji saw his own appearance in the mirror, wrapped up tightly.

"Does it have to be so troublesome? It's more complicated than entering the palace."

Changsun Chong put on a mask and pinched the strips on the bridge of his nose to fit them: "These things must be eaten into the mouth. Adults may not like to eat them so much. It would be bad if the children have any problems after eating them."

Changsun Chong pushed his father into the disinfection room, while he was outside directing Changsun Wuji how to disinfect himself completely.

The process was finally over, and Yuchi Baoqi had been waiting for them both for 10 minutes.

Director Qian pointed to the nearest production line: "This production line is the best-selling candy after Little White Rabbit Milk Candy, which is fruit milk gummy candy. The best-selling flavors are peach and apple. But customers still think the little white rabbit is the classic.”

Yuchi Baoqi walked up to the employees of the random inspection team and asked for a random inspection sample. It looked good.

Changsun Chong was afraid that his father would cause trouble, so he had to follow Changsun Wuji step by step, explaining the functions of each production line and showing the specifications of various candies.

Factory Director Qian also joined them: "Currently, our entire production line has interesting data. [-]% of the people buy white rabbit toffee, about [-]% of the people buy various fruit milk candies, plum candies and Fruit hard candies each account for [-]%.”

"One of the more interesting things is that the purchasers of White Rabbit Milk Candy are mostly young and middle-aged people, while the purchasers of Fruit Milk Candy are mostly women. The plum candy and fruit hard candy are purchased by women. Most of the sugar is bought by some elderly people."

Yuchi Baoqi patted Director Qian on the shoulder: "Well done, whose idea was this market segmentation? We really have to choose different strategies and products for different consumers."

Factory Director Qian did not take any credit: "The old factory director proposed it when he was still in office. We tried manufacturing some, and only after the market responded well did we submit funds to increase production lines and production workshops."

Changsun Wuji was stuffed with all kinds of candies by Factory Director Qian. Some of them were still under development and he was given some for him to try. He also said that if he wanted to eat candies, he could come to the factory and eat whatever he wanted.

Yuchi Baoqi was sitting in the car waiting for the two of them to get on. He was thinking about other things and his eyes were a little distracted.

"Brother Bao? What are you thinking about? Let's go and see the distillation factory?"

Yuchi Baoqi was called, suddenly came to his senses, started the car and set off for the distillation plant.

"I was wondering if the supply of milk here is very sufficient. If there is too much milk, wouldn't it be wasted? I am thinking of setting up an industry, but it would be a pity if the milk expires and spoils."

Because of the serious pollution, the distillation plant was initially chosen to be located in a leeward mountain col, which was very far away from the living area.

Changsun Wuji sat in the back seat, leaning on the soft seat. I just finished eating a few candies and my blood sugar level increased, making me feel a little drowsy.

"Boy, do you want to make canned milk out of a can?"

Yuchi Baoqi neither denied nor confirmed: "The method you mentioned is one direction, but considering the special characteristics of milk, it is not that easy. If the milk is heated through, the taste will change and whey will form stratification. .”

"My idea is to dehydrate the milk and turn it into powdered milk powder. Then you can just add water when you need to drink it, but the technology still needs some fine adjustments."

Changsun Chong thought of the process of drying, dehydration and crystallization in a sugar factory: "Is it okay to use a centrifuge and a boiler for drying?"

Yuchi Baoqi shook his head: "It doesn't work. In fact, you should have thought of the reason. Sugar is already syrup when it dehydrates and crystallizes, while milk has more water, so it is difficult to make it."

"My idea is to pass the milk through a very thin opening into mist, throw it and then dry it in the drying room. The water vapor will evaporate instantly and the milk powder will be left. However, there are still technical difficulties, and it is a bit difficult to do it purely mechanically."

At this moment, Changsun Wuji felt that he had listened to a math class and a physics class, and he had slept like a baby.

Changsun Chong has been discussing the feasibility of a milk powder factory with Yuchi Baoqi. Because it is very difficult, Changsun Chong does not understand why Yuchi Baoqi wants to make milk powder.

"If there is a lot of waste, is it not worthwhile to spend so much research and development funds to build a milk powder factory?"

Yuchi Baoqi was silent for a long time: "Do you know why the population of the Western Regions, Datang, Anxi Protectorate, Beidi, and Mobei Grassland suddenly increased a lot?"

"Because the mortality rate has decreased, in the past, if the mother had no milk, the baby would drink some corn water at most, and if the conditions were better, some rice soup or red bean soup."

Changsun Chong still didn't understand what it had to do with milk powder.

"The reason why the infant mortality rate has decreased is that now many people can afford to eat and have enough nutrition to keep up with the supply of milk, so the infant mortality rate has dropped."

"However, there are still women who cannot breastfeed, right? Not everyone can afford a wet nurse. The milk powder factory will fill this gap and also help the children in the Tang Dynasty grow up better."

After hearing this, Changsun Chong finally understood: "I am superficial and always think about business matters."

Yuchi Baoqi patted the steering wheel: "In a sense, you are right. The industry of generating electricity with love will never grow, but you forget that standing behind us is the increasingly powerful Tang Dynasty, a vast country. A country cannot develop without a sufficient population.”

Finally arriving at the distillation plant, Yuchi Baoqi smelled the pungent smell of distilled crude oil and took a mask directly from the glove box and put it on.

Changsun Wuji woke up and looked at the smoke coming out of the chimney of the distillation plant: "Is this what kind of oil is produced?"

Yuchi Baoqi nodded: "Diesel supplies large farm implements and tractors. Gasoline is currently only supplied to my cars. In the future, when the cars are mass-produced, these will be liquid gold."

As the person in charge of the distillation plant, Changsun Chong also expressed his admiration: "This is black gold, the blood of industry!"

Changsun Chong took Changsun Wuji to look around. Changsun Wuji didn't see anything interesting, so he said he would go back as he was a little sleepy.

Yuchi Baoqi was also hungry: "Let's go, I'm starving. Let's go back first and see if there is any food. If there is no food, let's go out to a restaurant? I feel like eating dumplings and taking them away."

When Yuchi Baoqi said this, Changsun Chong's stomach rumbled unsatisfactorily: "It's okay if I don't say it, but I'm really hungry now."
