When the car arrived at Xiao Dexiang's house, it was still more than ten minutes before one o'clock. Xiao Dexiang was about to go to work. When he looked up, he saw Wan Feng coming towards him in a donkey cart.
"The racks are all here, and the two peeling machines have been successfully tested and are very easy to use."
Xiao Dexiang said it worked, but that wasn't enough. Wan Feng had to try it himself. If it didn't work, it would be troublesome to bring it back.
The motor used in the peeling machine is a 1.5 ordinary two-phase motor that can be used with household power.
Xiao Dexiang took a basket of corn with husks, and Wan Feng began to experiment with each machine one by one.
The experiment was very successful, with almost no blocking occurring.
"How much would this machine cost for mass production?" Wan Feng asked after settling the payment with Xiao Dexiang after loading the machine and the frame onto the truck.
Xiao Dexiang did some calculations: "If it's a single-rod entry type, the cost is about 70 yuan, with the motor cost accounting for a large part. The cost of a multi-rod type is around 110 yuan."
The so-called single-rod entry method means that only one ear of corn can be fed into the feed port, which requires a dedicated person to feed one ear at a time into the machine.
The multi-rod type has a larger machine, and the feed port can accommodate multiple ears of corn at the same time, and can be poured upwards using a basket.
Xiao Dexiang made one of each of these two machines, and used the few hundred dollars Wan Feng gave him in the early stages to conduct experiments.
Of course, Wan Feng did not treat them unfairly and gave them an extra hundred yuan as labor fee.
He asked Zhang Hai for 1,000 yuan in funding, but only 400 yuan was left.
Wan Feng remembers that after 2015, a single-stick machine for home use was sold for 400 yuan, while a larger one was sold for between 700 and 1,200 yuan.
This price is definitely not feasible nowadays. Not to mention families, even some production teams may not be able to afford it.
But there should still be a market for it if it is sold for more than 100 yuan.
If Wahou starts industrial development next year, peeling machines and threshers will be the first products of Wahou industry.
Luan Changyuan used ropes to secure all the machines and the cart frame. The donkey cart was a little small, but it was fully loaded.
The main task has been completed, and the next step is to solve the problem of my uncle's gluttony.
The fifteenth day of the eighth month is the day after tomorrow, so Wan Feng won’t worry about whether the meat will go bad if he buys it today. He will be lucky if he can buy it.
Even if it was spoiled, Wan Feng believed that his uncle would swallow it.
If you don't buy it today, the supply and marketing cooperative may be closed tomorrow. These state-owned collective units will not tolerate your faults. No matter whether it is a holiday or not, they will still give you a holiday.
There is no commercial spirit at all.
To sell meat, one could only go to the meat group of the supply and marketing cooperative. At that time, there were no butchers on the streets, and the pigs raised by rural families were all task pigs. Only the pigs raised by the team would be slaughtered during the Chinese New Year and the pigs would be shared among the families. But that was not enough for them to do.
As far as Wan Feng knows, the Wahou Team doesn't seem to have any plans to slaughter pigs and distribute the meat on August 15th, so he can only buy it himself.
But you need a meat ticket to buy meat. Wan Feng doesn’t even have a meat ticket, so what can he use to buy it?
Wan Feng felt a little regretful why he didn't go to the black market to buy some meat tickets in the morning and buy them back in the market.
The meat group of the supply and marketing cooperative slaughtered two pigs at once today. Those who had meat coupons had a sense of superiority on their faces, as if a few big words were written on their faces: Look, I bought meat.
The price of meat is 75 cents, and the price of spare ribs is 85 cents. Not many people can afford this price.
Wan Feng was very disappointed when he learned that he could not buy meat without a meat ticket. He wanted to ask if they would throw the meat into the ditch if they could not sell it. If they did, he planned to wait by the ditch and pick it up for free.
Obviously, this possibility does not exist. If you want to buy meat, you must get a meat ticket.
Wan Feng thought about it and ran to Yan Shufang's sewing group.
Wan Feng hadn't been here for a while, and when the people in the sewing group saw that Happy Nut had arrived, they quickly surrounded him and tried to take advantage of him.
Especially the woman who is going to get married in the autumn, what is her name?
This guy surrounded Wan Feng like a cat in heat, as if he had seen a rich man.
In the past, every time Wan Feng came, he would buy them some delicious food, and this guy was the one who grabbed it the most.
Unfortunately, there was nothing here today, so Wan Feng came here to find something to eat.
"Meat coupons? We were given three pounds of meat coupons each, but I haven't decided whether to buy them or not."
The supply and marketing cooperative actually gave each person three pounds of meat coupons? This is so corrupt!
"Sister Yao..."
"My last name is Liang." The woman who was about to get married quickly declared that if this guy called her that a few more times she would become a prostitute, which was intolerable.
"Sister Liang, from a health perspective, eating too much meat is very bad for women, especially pork. Pork is very high in fat and calories, and it can also cause high blood lipids and high blood sugar levels. Eating too much will not only increase your body fat but also induce diabetes and prostatitis. Most importantly, it can affect pregnancy. It's especially not recommended for those getting married. For your health, I suggest you sell me your meat tickets. I'll take care of these diseases for you."
"You little bastard, you're trying to fool me again. Did Luan Feng get fooled by you like this?"
"I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, try eating two pounds of pork every day. In less than three months, even if you don't get married, your belly will be like a pregnant woman's."
I don’t know whether Liang’s belly will look like a pregnant woman, but it is certain that she will go bankrupt from eating too much.
"Get lost! You just want my meat ticket, right? I can give you two pounds, and I have to keep one pound."
"Really? Then I'll give you a five-dollar gift when you get married."
"You fooled me again."
"You must believe in that two-dollar gift."
