Cultivation in the city

The factory building of the candy factory was built in the New Technology Development Zone in the southwest of Zhongzhou City. Although that area was also included in Zhongzhou City, but because of the remoteness of the place, it has not been fully developed, and the land price is not very valuable.There are only a few scattered factories here, let alone residents, so there are no supermarkets, vegetable markets and other shops. If you want to buy food or daily necessities, you have to drive more than ten kilometers to get a little A decent business district.

Although the factory buildings here have certain value, the value is definitely not as high as what Liu Wei reported. As for the production equipment that looks half-new and not old, Duan Tiancheng asked a professional to evaluate it. It is the latest production line, but because it is Second-hand, so the value has to be discounted.

The calculation of these things is definitely not 3000 million. Duan Tiancheng already knew it well without looking for someone to evaluate it, but he didn't get entangled with his cousin because of it.

Disdain is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is to let oneself remember.

The childhood friendship is gone, and the relationship between him and Liu Wei is worse than strangers.

Thinking of this, Duan Tiancheng's gaze towards the factory building became extraordinarily complicated.

Compared with Duan's father's entanglement, Duan Xiaolou is more curious about this factory building.

This factory building covers an area of ​​about [-] square meters and has two floors.The front and left of the factory area are vacant factory buildings, and the back is offices and staff dormitories.

The factory originally recruited employees, but they were dismissed because there were no orders for a long time. Only the uncle of the concierge was still here. The uncle raised a wolf dog. When Duan Xiaolou and others first arrived, the dog was still barking at them. After a meal.

One person and one dog are the only remaining employees of this candy factory.

Entering the gate of the candy factory and looking around, the whole factory looks empty and looks particularly depressed.

"Dad, if this factory is transferred, how much money can it transfer?" Duan Yiqing asked.

"It is estimated that there can be more than 2000 million yuan, but such a factory is not easy to resell, and most people will not want it. The location is not convenient enough, and there is no special advantage." Duan Tiancheng replied a little depressed.

"Can they be sold separately?" Duan Yiqing asked after thinking about it.

"It can be done, but it's not very easy to operate. It would be better if the equipment is sold first. If the factory is sold first, the storage of the equipment will be another problem."

……

Duan Yiqing and her father were discussing how to deal with the candy factory, but Duan Xiaolou was ignored, so she ran up and down and walked around the whole factory.

Compared to the troubles of his eldest brother and father, Duan Xiaolou is quite satisfied with this place.

There was no such workshop in the world he used to live in. Although there was a lot of dust here because it hadn't been cleaned for a long time, it was spacious and bright, and one could imagine how clean and tidy it would look after a little cleaning.

There is no so-called assembly line operation in Luoxian Continent, most of it is done by individuals, at most it is just apprentices or helpers. But now, Duan Xiaolou has seen a brand-new operation mode, which is the magical effect brought by industrialization , if this kind of industrialization is combined with the knowledge I have learned, what kind of chemical reaction will it produce?

Duan Xiaolou felt his adrenaline rush just by thinking about it.

It is impossible to dispose of the factory building and equipment in a short time, so the group left after seeing it.

Duan Tiancheng and Duan Yiqing started posting online about selling factories and equipment. In addition, they also asked their friends to help them pay attention. Of course, even so, they did not expect these things to be sold soon.

After visiting the candy factory, Duan Xiaolou found a lot of information related to candy and candy making, and spent a lot of time browsing every day.

Many people are addicted to sweets, especially children, and candy is their favorite.But the harm of candy is not small: tooth decay, obesity, anorexia... Excessive can cause gout, diabetes and other diseases.

If candy can be delicious and healthy, will it attract more people to buy it?

With this in mind, Duan Xiaolou started his research.

At the very beginning, Duan Xiaolou wanted to use some special materials to replace those bad ingredients in candies, but due to the limitations of raw materials and tools, he found it difficult to complete such an innovation, even if he really developed a new type of candy. It is impossible to replace the materials without updating the sugar making equipment.Therefore, Duan Xiaolou changed his thinking. If the impact of candy on the human body can be reduced, is it easier to achieve it?

Duan Xiaolou originally wanted to reduce all the impacts, such as neither tooth decay nor excessive heat, but he found that such an idea is still difficult to achieve under the current conditions.

Moreover, when people eat candy, they are aware of the possible harm that candy may bring, and they are even prepared to accept the harm. In this case, if he only uses appropriate reduction in harm, people will naturally be willing to spend money to buy it.

Just like those sweets made with xylitol instead of sucrose, the taste is actually worse than that of real candies, but because of the characteristics of anti-cavity and low calories, many consumers are still willing to pay.

Thinking of this, Duan Xiaolou simply set two goals as the development direction of the new type of candy.

One is able to prevent dental caries, and the other is not easy to gain weight after eating.

The knowledge system that Duan Xiaolou knows is completely different from this world, so even if he can refine many elixirs with wonderful effects, he still cannot easily refine what he wants in this place that lacks spiritual plants and alchemy furnaces.

Fortunately, there are some plants in this world that are the same or similar to the ones he knows. As long as he lowers his requirements for the results, he can always extract a finished product that is close to the expected effect.

In the next few days, the Duan family could see all kinds of strange medicinal materials appearing at home every day, and the whole Duan family seemed to be soaked in a medicine jar, and the smell of Chinese medicine wafted everywhere.

"What kind of medicine is Xiaolou cooking here? Didn't the last injury heal?" Duan's father asked while helping Duan's mother choose vegetables.

"...not medicine, Xiaolou said he wanted to make candy." Mother Duan paused before replying.

"Make candy?!"

Duan's father accidentally made his voice louder, causing Duan's mother to roll her eyes.

"Keep your voice down, don't let Xiaolou hear you."

Duan's father suppressed the surprise in his heart, and said in a low voice: "Why do you still have to boil medicine for making candy?"

Papa Duan shivered when he thought about the taste of the traditional Chinese medicine with sugar added to it when he was a child.Whether adding sugar to traditional Chinese medicine or adding Chinese medicine to sugar, he doesn't think it tastes so good.

"Who knows? Xiaolou said that he wants to study a candy that won't cause tooth decay and a candy that won't gain weight if he eats it. Anyway, let him do it if he likes to do it. It's rare for a child to have a hobby. "Mother Duan also finds it difficult to understand the whims of her second son, but she will not object just because she does not understand.

"I know, don't show too much concern, lest the child will not think about it." When it comes to feeling sorry for Duan Xiaolou, Duan's father is definitely not behind.

Mother Duan waved her hand and said, "I know, you should pay attention to yourself."

Duan Xiaolou didn't know about the agreement reached by Duan's parents here, but he could still feel the indulgence of his parents.

In fact, when he was in Piaomiao Valley, the master was very pampering to him, and later he often urged him to practice because he was worried that he would be too obsessed with these things and neglect his cultivation.

Duan Xiaolou was distracted thinking about the master in another world, but he kept moving his hands. He has tried many times, either the concoction is not easy to boil, or the taste is not good. Later, the concoction was finally boiled. Yes, but it becomes very unpalatable when mixed with sugar.

However, with the increase in the number of failures, Duan Xiaolou's finished products tended to be more and more in line with his expectations.

After turning off the stove, Duan Xiaolou took advantage of the residual heat to slowly stir the concoction in the pot.

The brown juice began to change color gradually as the temperature dropped. First, the color became lighter and lighter, and then it began to turn from brown to blue. When it completely cooled down, it had turned into a clear light blue.

Not only did the color of the concoction change, but even the smell was not as bitter as before, but a touch of freshness.

Duan Xiaolou put most of the concoction into a stainless steel insulation box, leaving a small part to pour into the syrup prepared in advance.The blue concoction met the light yellow syrup, and finally turned into a light green color. Duan Xiaolou quickly poured the mixed syrup into the mold beside it before it cooled completely.

Putting the mold aside, Duan Xiaolou started making another candy.

When Duan Anran came back from school, Duan Xiaolou had already made a lot of candies, and Duan's mother had to set aside a round table for him to use.

Duan Anran looked at the second brother who was leisurely making candies, and couldn't help but sigh again that he was definitely not his own. Otherwise, why the second brother could ask his parents to ask for sick leave for the reason of "making candies", but he couldn't?

However, the crueler reality is yet to come, because Duan Xiaolou doesn't know whether the candies he makes are suitable for the public's taste, so he urgently needs a taster, and the poor Duan family brother, recommended by other members of the Duan family Among them, the glorious "won" this post.

Duan Anran looked at Candy Mountain in front of him with a look of despair.

"Do you really want to taste it?" Duan Anran asked unwillingly.

Duan Xiaolou nodded: "Of course, but you don't have to eat too much, just eat one in a box. I just want to know which tastes better."

Duan Anran listened to the second brother's natural answer, looked at the crowd full of expectations and encouragement, and finally expressed deep sympathy for himself in his heart, while accepting his fate, he picked up the candy closest to him and threw it into his mouth middle.

As soon as the light green candy was in his mouth, Duan Anran's tense expression relaxed.

It's not the mint flavor you might expect, nor is it overpoweringly sweet.The light sweetness gradually spread in the mouth, and the whole person seemed to be refreshed.

Duan Anran is not the kind of person who particularly likes sweets, but after eating this kind of candy, it didn't make his mouth full of annoying sweetness like before.Tasting carefully, the taste seems to be pretty good?

Knowing the child is better than the mother, Duan's mother was the first to see something wrong from Duan Anran's expression.

She tentatively picked up a candy from the same mold and put it into her mouth, immediately narrowed her eyes and showed a happy expression.

Seeing this, Duan's father couldn't help being tempted to take one casually.

As soon as the candy was put into the mouth, a herbal smell mixed with bitterness and sweetness immediately swept the whole mouth.

Father Duan: ...the taste of childhood!He will never forget the taste of compound licorice oral liquid with sugar in his life!
