Chapter 421 417. People who lose weight are miserable
Boiled spinach.

There is no seasoning and no oil.

The vegetables used in the canteen of the food factory are either grown by Luo Yihang on the mountain or bought from the vegetable market.

How can it taste good?

Luo Yihang took a bite and didn't taste any vegetable flavor. Or rather, it was just the original vegetable flavor, which was bitter and a little astringent, and had a soft texture.

Oops, I almost couldn’t swallow it.

Qiangwa’s mouth was full of it, it was so sour and exciting.

Qiang Wa chased after Luo Yihang and started scolding him, but when he turned around, he saw that there was actually another person who had escaped and was watching the joke.

The two bad boys exchanged glances and turned to Ma Zhitao at the same time, forcing him to eat all the remaining boiled spinach, even drinking two mouthfuls of the soup.

Then I got a surprise: the soup was even more unpalatable than the vegetable.

And then and then...

Luo Yihang: "What are we going to do?"

Qiang Wa: "It seems like we need to test the effect of fresh mushrooms."

Ma Zhitao, his face flushed with anxiety: "Yue~ you could have added it directly just now, why did you let me eat it all, Yue~~"

Haha, haha, I was careless for a moment.

"Aunt Wang, please make it again. Don't make it too thick this time. Just make a few stalks of spinach. Add a spoonful of this stuff when you make it."

Boiling vegetables is very quick, and the main time-consuming part is boiling the water.

After a while, another bowl of green and soft vegetable leaves was placed in front of the three people.

The only difference from the previous one is that this bowl is a little smaller, and a spoonful of mushroom sauce is also added when adding salt.

But from the outside, he looked exactly the same as before, with no appetite at all.

"This..." Just like before, no one took action.

Alas, Luo Yihang sighed, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a bite and put it into his mouth.

Suddenly his eyes lit up and he said in surprise: "This time it's not bad."

The same trick won't work if you use it twice.

No one believed what Luo Yihang said.

"You don't want to eat, right?" Luo Yihang muttered casually.

Then Qiangwa and Ma Zhitao saw Luo Yihang crunching down a bowl of boiled spinach and even drinking the soup.

Not a single bite was left for either of them.

So, it’s really delicious this time?

So, we didn't trick them this time, but they jumped into the trap themselves?
"Why do you talk so loudly?" Qiangwa scolded Luo Yihang again.

Then he called Aunt Wang, "Make another one."

Aunt Wang was just about to leave.

But then Luo Yihang coughed.

It's like they're trying to make things difficult for the workers.

Innocent employees were caught up in the power struggle between two bosses, and were treated as tools and squeezed in the middle, suffering from the bullying and powerlessness.

Aunt Wang instantly remembered the classic scene.

Just as I shivered, I heard Luo Yihang say, "Get some of the dishes in the kitchen. I want to try hot pot."
-
Boil a pot of water, sprinkle in a little bit of salt, and then sprinkle a few spoonfuls of fresh mushrooms.

Wait until it dissolves before adding various vegetables to cook.

When cooked, put it into a bowl.

Qiangwa and Ma Zhitao finally tasted the boiled vegetables with mushrooms.

How should I describe the taste? The slight freshness and fragrance covered up the bitterness, making the boiled vegetables taste okay and edible.

Although it’s not as delicious as normal dishes, it’s still edible.

After tasting a round.

Luo Yihang added some salt to the pot, the normal amount for making soup, and a few drops of sesame oil.

It turned into a pot of vegetable soup. I'll try it again this time.

"Hmm~ Not bad."

Qiangwa was the first to give a thumbs up, and this vegetable soup could be called delicious.

After tasting it, Luo Yihang rubbed his chin and asked a question: "Shiitake mushrooms don't have much fat and calories, right? Now what we are cooking, is it called a light meal?"

Ma Zhitao immediately replied: "Shiitake mushroom flavor is extracted from shiitake mushrooms. Its main ingredients are plant protein, vitamins, minerals and amino acids, as well as trace elements and nucleotides that make up umami. The content of carbohydrates, sugars and fats is very low."

Multiple professions, all kinds of ingredient data can be easily obtained.

Luo Yihang nodded, "Low sugar, low fat, low calories, so this is a light meal."

Qiangwa's eyes lit up, "Yes, add some chicken and shrimp, and pair it with pumpkin, corn, etc., it will be a light meal for weight loss."

As he said this he patted his big belly.

Fat Songjiang, the timely rain, can't even see his feet when he lowers his head. He must have done research on this.

ps: This is only for research purposes, practical application is impossible.

At this time, Aunt Wang suddenly interrupted, "Boss, my old man at home also eats what you said. He only eats these and won't even touch rice. He only eats corn every day."

...That's why people who lose weight are miserable. They are treated the same as patients.
-
The experiment was completed with good results.

So now there is only one question left, what is the output?
"I don't know." Ma Zhitao spread his hands.

"Fresh shiitake mushrooms can only be made from mushroom bags made from fruit residue. And I don't know how much fruit residue there is. The fruit residue comes in batches, and the amount in each batch is different. Luo Minghai from the mushroom bag factory and I studied it for more than two months, wasting a lot of time, before we tested out the appropriate fermentation time and base material ratio."

"I only know that 1% fruit residue plus 1% corn stalks and other auxiliary materials can successfully produce mushrooms, but the yield ratio is not high, only about :, one kilogram of base material can produce one kilogram of mushrooms."

“The extraction rate is about 30:1, so kilograms of mushrooms will yield one kilogram.”

Ma Zhitao knew the ratio, but did not know the output of fruit residue, so he was missing important parameters.

But Qiangwa knows.

The three of them returned to Qiangwa's office.

Ma Zhitao was still holding on to his jar of mushrooms.

This is a treasure.

Qiangwa checked the data and found out that it’s only been more than four months.

The food factory has used 450 tons of various fruits and produced 55 tons of fruit residue.

These fruits were used to produce 370,000 cans of candy, and together with the chewing gum that did not contain any fruit, the total was 500,000 cans.

On average, more than 4,000 cans are sold every day.

The profits brought by these candies, note that they were profits, exceeded 1500 million.

Wow.

The greedy girls and boys are so awesome.

After learning that there were 55 tons of fruit residue, I contacted Luo Minghai and obtained the fermentation data.

Fruit residues need to be fermented for a certain period of time before they can be made into mushroom bags. During this period, some organic matter will be lost, about 10%.

Therefore, of the 55 tons of fruit residue produced in four months, 50 tons of the remaining fermentation can be made into 70 tons of mushroom bags and produce 70 tons of shiitake mushrooms.

Finally, 2.3 tons of fresh shiitake mushrooms were extracted.

2.3 tons, seems like a lot.

Packaged into the 125-gram packages commonly used for seasoning, there are only more than portions.

If the price is higher, fifty yuan per copy, it would only be around nine hundred thousand yuan.

After removing a series of intermediate costs, the profit is hundreds of thousands.

If it were last year, Luo Yihang would have been so happy.

But now, one candy costs 15 million; one chili oil costs 7 million from Zheng Haowei; one pea, which is just an experimental field, costs more than 3 million per round.

Even a foot bath medicine pack can earn hundreds of thousands.

Look at the fresh shiitake mushrooms. The process is so complicated and the profit is only a few hundred thousand. It's so boring.

So, what should we do?
