Chapter 79 Market Feedback
At the same time, taking advantage of the two days that the factory director gave himself on holiday, Xu Qiang continued to start mass production of shampoo and soap.

"The amount of this alkali must be controlled. Too little will not be enough to cleanse, and too much will be too irritating to human skin..." Xu Qiang taught Erhu, Liu Jun, and Da Hei Niu how to make soap. He then said, "So you need to use the test paper several times to keep the pH value at this color."

Nowadays, Xu Qiang has to go to night school at night and has various things to do during the day, so in order to ensure that shampoo and soap can still be mass-produced when he is away, he has to teach the three of them the entire manufacturing process.

But as the saying goes, "Teaching your apprentice may starve you," Xu Qiang still had some tricks up his sleeve, so this time he only taught the three of them the synthesis process of shampoo and soap, but he did not teach them the preparation and production of the core raw material, the essence. It had to be prepared by Xu Qiang himself, thus avoiding the risk of leaking the core process. After all, soap without essence is at best just an ordinary soap.

Xu Qiang taught seriously and the three learned quickly. It only took a short while for a new batch of soap to be poured into the mold. It only needed to solidify overnight before it could be delivered to Wang Yongsheng.

When the last pot of mixed liquid is poured into the mold, all the work for the day is done.

Although working in the peat bog is hard, life is getting better and better at night now.

Da Hei Niu put the ingredients that had been prepared long ago into the pot, and after stir-frying them, the delicious meal was served on the table.

I have to say that Da Hei Niu's cooking skills are the best among the four. The meat slices are smooth and tender, and the potato shreds are almost as thin as a hair. From the moment he started cooking, Erhu has been circling behind him, swallowing his saliva so many times.

"Today is the day Liu Jun gets his tractor driver's license. Everyone should congratulate him."

At this time Xu Qiang picked up the wine glass and said to everyone.

"Congratulations, Brother Jun!" Erhu was the first to speak.

"Drink!" Big Black Bull also raised his glass at this time.

"Thank you everyone!" At this time Liu Jun was smiling, picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

As the first tractor driver in the village, Liu Jun feels somewhat emotional.

In the past, he was a driver in the village, but now he has kept up with the times and become a tractor driver. It seems that he will have to deal with cars all his life.

In fact, Liu Jun also likes the feeling of driving very much, especially when the weather is good. Sitting in the carriage, smoking a pipe and looking at the scenery along the way are his happiest times.

"I want to tell you all that I plan to make all of us learn to drive a tractor. However, we are very busy right now. After this period of busy work, Erhu, you and Dahei Niu will go to the agricultural machinery station to learn. Do you understand?"

"That's great!" Erhu immediately said happily when he heard Xu Qiang say this.

The big black bull standing next to him also had some anticipation in his eyes.

"There is one more thing. I will be going to the provincial capital the day after tomorrow. I will probably have to stay there for a day or two. If I am away during this period, you two must follow Liu Jun's command."

Before Xu Qiang and the factory director go to the provincial capital, they must explain the matters at the peat field. Among the four people, Xu Qiang trusts Liu Jun the most. As long as he is there, Xu Qiang can do other things with peace of mind.

"Okay, we will definitely listen to Brother Jun." Erhu and Dahei Niu nodded.

"By the way, uncle, why are you going to the provincial capital? And you're going with the director of your factory?" Liu Jun asked in surprise. "I proposed some technical solutions to the factory before, and the experts in the provincial capital took a fancy to them and asked me to go over and explain the solutions to them in detail, that's all." Xu Qiang said casually.

"Is that so... My uncle is really amazing. He has just started working in the factory and has accomplished such a big thing."

"I've already said that my uncle is not an ordinary person!"

"Okay, don't worry about my business, just do your own things." Xu Qiang paused, then continued: "In the two days when I'm away, you should produce more soaps and shampoo creams at night. I've also taught you the method. Starting from tomorrow night, you must make at least 300 bars of soap every day. If you don't have enough materials, go to the town to buy them from Wang Zhong. You can use the money from selling fertilizers. Liu Jun, you keep a good account... But no matter what, the quality must be guaranteed. We can't destroy our own reputation!"

For Xu Qiang, although his stall is small, he has his own brand awareness.

When facing Liu Jun and others, Xu Qiang always emphasized product quality. Even if the cost is higher and the output is smaller, quality must always be guaranteed.

It was under the long-term instillation of Xu Qiang's awareness that Liu Jun and Erhu began to pay more and more attention to quality. Every time they produced, they strictly followed the process instructed by Xu Qiang and did not dare to make the slightest mistake.

After Xu Qiang's careful training over this period of time, the three have mastered the basic process of producing humic acid fertilizers, shampoos and soaps. Although the core steps and techniques still have to be completed by Xu Qiang, as long as Xu Qiang prepares the key raw materials in advance, he does not need to do the rest of the work. This will undoubtedly allow Xu Qiang to free up more time to do other things.

"Yes, we can't destroy our own reputation." The three of them echoed.

That night, after eating and drinking, a few people listened to the radio and played poker. Their nightlife was quite pleasant.

Since the generator was installed, the peat field has become brightly lit at night.

At this moment, on a hillside not far from the peat field, the village chief's youngest son, Zhao Xuewen, looked at the lighted earthen house opposite with an uncertain look...

……

The next morning, Xu Qiang came to the staff dormitory with a batch of newly produced shampoo and soap.

"Please take a good look at the goods. If there are no problems with them, I will pay for them." Xu Qiang said to Wang Yongsheng after he understood what he had done when he inspected the goods.

"I trust you to do the work." Holding a piece of purple lilac-scented soap, she said to Xu Qiang, "This lilac soap sells very well. Many female workers specifically ask for this type of soap. You have to help me get more in the future."

No matter how many scents there are, there will always be a best-selling one, which is normal.

With the market feedback from Wang Yongsheng, Xu Qiang can adjust the production of various products in a timely manner and ultimately seek to maximize sales.

"No problem." Xu Qiang nodded.

"That's it." Wang Yongsheng put the soap in his hand back into the box and said, "This time we received a total of 210 kilograms of shampoo and 245 yuan of soap. Let me do the math... 455 plus , a total of yuan, right?"
