Chapter 394: The Tangerine Controversy (1)
"it is good."

After the official business was over, the two talked about private matters. "This is a letter from the master to you."

With that said, he handed Su Qingqing a letter.

Su Qingqing took a look, and everyone in the family expressed their worries and misses, and the two little nephews, without exception, also pressed their little palms.

"It's from Princess Jingning." Yue Lanfeng handed over another letter.

Su Qingqing opened it and saw that there was only one picture on the whole letter, and the beauty on it was looking at her coldly.

Only that girl Jing Ning could write such a childish letter, she couldn't help laughing.

"What is so happy?" Li Yuanchu, who came back late, saw that her attention was not on him, full of sourness.

"Look at Jingning's letter." Su Qingqing handed him the letter.

When Li Yuanchu saw a comic beauty staring at him, he couldn't help laughing.

"I'll go there tomorrow." Su Qingqing said to Yue Lanfeng, who was smiling half-smilingly, and glanced at Li Yuanchu again, feeling a little guilty.

"Okay." Before the sound of a word disappeared, Yue Lanfeng disappeared.

For Yue Lanfeng's sense of taste, Li Yuanchu felt a little more balanced.

"That girl is crazy by herself, please ignore her." He said with a faint smile.

"Well, I'm afraid she will make a fuss when I go back." Su Qingqing said worriedly.

"She dare not." Li Yuanchu replied firmly.

Thinking of Jing Ning's fear of him, Su Qingqing burst out laughing.

The next day, Su Qingqing didn't go to the restricted area, and almost all the patients there left. For the few who needed to be observed, it would be good to have Doctor Wang and them.

"Miss, how do you look at these bottles?" Mo Yannian handed her the first batch of bottles produced.

"Yes, that's it. Have you tested it?" Su Qingqing asked, she was asking how many liters the bottle can hold.

After three years of this new way of calculating the volume of liquids, people in Qingxi Village have become very familiar with it.

"It's what the lady said." Mo Yannian came over this time and brought a few proud apprentices with him.

A large number of bottles are needed here, and naturally they have to be produced by themselves, which reduces the cost a lot.

"Burn it like this." After inspecting the finished product, Su Qingqing was still very satisfied with the bottle produced.

"Then show me the printed cardboard." Su Qingqing said again.

The production technology of cardboard is much more difficult. This is not Su Qingqing's strong point. The person who sponsored the technology is Li Yuanchu.Because the technology is too difficult, even if the outside merchants want to imitate Suji's trademark, they have no choice.

"Is this the case?" Yue Lanfeng lazily handed over two pieces of paper.

Su Qingqing took it and looked, it was very good, the pattern on the drawing was done exactly according to her requirements.Broken citrus is printed on the cardboard of the red background, and the splashed water droplets make people salivate.

The piece of paper under the juice is the trademark of the can.

Petals of orange citrus are so attractive, it is almost lifelike.

Su Qingqing checked the product description again, and was relieved when she found that there was nothing wrong.

"Miss, I'm afraid there won't be enough tangerines in the warehouse to send so many tangerines at once." The steward came to report.

"Continue to open the cave." Before Su Qingqing could speak, Yue Lanfeng's expression darkened and he spoke.

Suji’s products and vegetables that need to be kept fresh are all stored in caves. These caves are protected from artificial ice all year round, so it is very convenient to store them.

"Yes." The steward respectfully agreed and was ready to go out.

"Wait, all citrus must be of high quality, and unqualified ones must not be accepted." Su Qingqing warned.

"Yes, the villain understands." The steward replied solemnly.

The factory building has been built long ago and is very large. It turned out to be just a large warehouse, with a total of three rows and nine houses in each row.According to Su Qingqing's request, Yue Lanfeng added a cleaning room, a skinning room, a juicing room, and finally a finished product room.

The finished juice room is not far from the canned ones, and only Su Ji's own people can enter here.

Outside are the villagers recruited nearby.

Su Qingqing was worried after all, and went to the site where the citrus was purchased to investigate in person.

Late autumn is the season when citrus is ripe, and many villagers have sent their own citrus.

Some of them were picked by pickers, some were pushed by handcarts, and some were carried by backpacks.The people in Suji Zhuangzi are all busy with their work, while earnestly weighing and counting money.

"A catty sells for three Wen. This year's citrus is worth a fortune." A villager said happily after receiving the silver.

"One mu of land can harvest more than 5000 catties of citrus, which is much better than farming." The villagers with many citrus trees at home narrowed their eyes for joy.

"Yes, it's much better than farming. Old Maozi, your family has planted three acres, and after one season, it's worth dozens of taels of silver. Don't worry about not having a new house to live in next year."

"Same joy, same joy, yours is not bad."

Those who received the money received envious eyes, and those who had not sold were filled with hope.

"In the past, when those profiteers came to buy, they only sold five catties for three pennies. Su Ji raised the price very high. We have hope in life."

"Yes, there is hope."

"We must not forget our roots."

There are many such arguments.

The villagers present did not know Su Qingqing, and the people from Su Ji saw her coming over and wanted to salute, but she stopped her by raising her hand.

Su Qingqing squatted down and took a look, yes, all the citrus that came up were of better quality, some of them were picked aside, and the price was lower.

After comparison, the villagers have nothing to say.

In this way, Su Ji collected a mountain of citrus in the blink of an eye.

Yue Lanfeng and her entered the factory in a low-key manner. There were only about twenty young people waiting for her arrival.

After Su Qingqing inspected the sanitation in the factory, she then directed these young people to start production.

"Remove the skin, then put it in the juicer and stir." Su Qingqing instructed them.

The mixing tool is relatively primitive, made of stone, a bit similar to a millstone, but much larger than a millstone, this work is a laborious task, fortunately, when these juicers were designed, the skilled craftsmen in the palace listened Following her suggestion, the labor-saving axle principle is used, which saves a lot of labor for workers.

The squeezed juice flows out of the sink and is filtered through a sieve. At this time, workers add sucrose, cooled boiled water, preserved herbs, prepared spices, and finally enter the rotary bottle driven by water to complete.
