Chapter 443 The Can is So Heavy
Siming thought of the New Year gift sent by the President before the New Year: "What's going on with the Northern Government?"
"I heard the production is pretty good. Although it's not as high as Beiyang City, it's increased by about 10% to 20%."
"Pei Jingming was in charge of the planting this time, so it can be said that he did not make any mistakes."
Chen Yongnian was not sure what the president was thinking, so he went out of his way to find out.
Siming hung up the phone after talking to him. He had already made the statement when selling the seeds.
Even if they are angry now, it has nothing to do with me. It was you who came here to buy it, not me who was in a hurry to sell it.
The Cai family sent the processed white flour over, and bags of it were being moved to the kitchen.
Wu Ma was a little worried when she saw all the flour: "Sending so much, it will be wasted if it is not stored properly."
"Aunt Wu, isn't noodles difficult to store?"
"Yes! Rice and flour are difficult to store. One reason is that they are afraid of moisture, and the other is that they are inedible if left for too long." Aunt Wu looked at the flour and was thinking about how to deal with it.
"If it's not placed in a humid place, can it be stored for a long time?" Si Jinchen asked.
"It should be able to be stored longer in a dry place." Aunt Wu was considering whether to make the flour into small biscuits.
The children in the family all like to eat it, and when she makes more, she can send some to the orphanage for the children there.
She did what she said and didn't notice when the two children beside her disappeared.
I turned around to ask the two children if they needed help, but I saw that they were gone.
"That's strange. They usually like to help, but why are they all gone today?" Aunt Wu's face was full of question marks.
The two children, who are one year older, now have a lot more ideas than before.
Si Tian and Siming were also discussing the issue of food storage on the sofa in the hall.
"Brother, it's not easy to store so much food." Si Tian looked at the growing piles of food.
Although there was enough food to make them feel at ease, too much food would result in greater losses if not stored properly.
Sima Ming was also worried about this issue. He was worried when there was no food, and he was also worried when there was too much food.
This year, the grain yield for all the people in Beiyang City was very high, and what they couldn't finish was sold to the Si family's grain store.
Now the Si family’s grain store is almost full, and this has made the two of them so worried that they don’t know what to do.
"Miss, Master, why are you sitting here?" Jiang Shui came to deliver the account book and saw several little guys sitting in rows on the steps.
She walked over to them and sat down, looking at them with curiosity.
"Auntie, we are thinking about how to isolate water and air." Si Jinchen looked at her.
"Why do we need to isolate water and air?" Jiang Shui was a little confused.
"This way the food can be stored for a long time!" Juanjuan supported her chin with both hands.
Jiang Shui also fell into deep thought. There was a way to inflate the air, but to extract the air, could he do it in the opposite direction?
When you pull it out, you have to seal it quickly, otherwise it will be a waste of time.
But what material is better for sealing?
Xiang Yutang had a rare chance to rest today and wanted to find some little ones to play with, but he ended up seeing a few people frowning.
Even the triplets and two puppies next to them frowned.
How big a problem is this that can make them frown like this?
"What's wrong with you?" Xiang Yutang walked up to them, squatted down and looked at them.
Jiang Shui then told the children about their problems and asked, "Mr. Xiang, do you have any ideas for solving this problem?"
Xiang Yutang thought for a moment and said, "In fact, someone abroad has come up with this idea, called vacuum, which is to isolate water and air."
"But if you want to achieve such complete isolation, perhaps only plastic can do it. However, plastic has a strong smell and is also dangerous, unless..."
"Unless what?" Several people looked at him.
"Ha!" The triplets also made their own puzzled sounds.
"Woof woof. What? What?" Da Mao and Er Mao tilted their heads.
Xiang Yutang looked at them and said, "Unless we can find a way to remove the smell and make the plastic safe."
"If it becomes safe, we can store a lot of food!" Juanjuan looked at Xiang Yutang.
"I can only say that it can extend its shelf life." Xiang Yutang did not dare to guarantee whether it would cause the food to spoil. After all, there are currently no records or experiments in this regard.
"Mr. Xiang, how about you make the plastic safe and I'll find a way to extract the air?" Jiang Shui looked at him and said with a smile.
"I was just about to take a vacation, and you're asking me to work again. That's not very fair." Although Xiang Yutang said he was disgusted, he smiled brightly.
"So are you going to do it or not?" Jiang Shui looked at him with a smile.
"Now that you've said that, wouldn't it be very embarrassing if I lost to you?" Xiang Yutang stood up and looked at Juanjuan and Si Jinchen.
"I wanted to come play with you guys today, but now I have to go back to work. I can only come play with you guys next time."
After he said that, he reached out and rubbed their little heads one by one, then turned and left.
Jiang Shui stood up, handed the account book to Si Tian, turned around and ran away.
Si Ming and Si Tian's faces were full of question marks. They just knew that the two people were coming, but why did they leave before they even said a word?
The two could only come out and ask a few children.
The triplets were hugging their older brother and sister and acting coquettishly, and the same was true for Da Mao and Er Mao.
"Juanjuan, Achen, your Aunt Jiang and Brother Xiang just came, why did they leave again?" Siming was sitting next to the children.
"They left because they were going back to do new experiments." Si Jinchen replied.
"What new experiment?" Si Tian also sat next to them curiously.
Si Jinchen repeated the conversation just now.
This made Si Ming and Si Tian both have to admit that having capable people around can often solve big problems.
"Dad, if we go somewhere far away and can't cook, will we starve?" Juanjuan suddenly asked a question.
Siming was stunned for a moment: "A place where you can't cook?"
"Yeah, just like when we are on the road, if we are hungry we can eat dry food." Juanjuan nodded seriously.
"If we go to a faraway place, the dry food can't be preserved for that long!" Siming thought for a while and said.
"If dry food can be preserved for a long time and a small piece can fill you up, then you won't have to worry about going hungry." Juanjuan blinked her big eyes.
"It can be stored for a long time and you can be full by eating just a small piece. How can there be such a thing?" Siming had no way of imagining it.
"Juanjuan, are you talking about canned food?" Si Tian could only think of the canned food produced by the canning factory.
"Uncle, the cans are so heavy." Juanjuan had eaten canned food before, and each one felt very heavy in his hand.
