Chapter 64 Food Safety is Above All
Chapter 64 Food Safety is Above All
Zhu Zaigui took a breath and finally adjusted his state.
At this moment, Zhu Zaigui had to praise Lan Daoxing's "Xiantian Gong", which was indeed of infinite uses.
Zhu Zaigui, who had recovered, said to Meng Chong and Teng Xiang, "Let's go in and take a look at the situation."
Meng Chong, Teng Xiang and the accompanying guards immediately followed Zhu Zaigui and escorted him to the Shunyi Industrial Park.
As soon as we arrived at the gate of the park, Zhang Tianci, the supervisor of the park construction, came out to greet us.
Zhang Tianci was about to bow to Zhu Zaiqi, but Zhu Zaiqi stopped him and said, "I'm just here to take a look around, you can do whatever you need to do. Safety is paramount within the park!"
Zhang Tianci replied carefully, "Young Master, please be careful. The park has not been cleaned up yet, and there are messy bricks, wood, sand and gravel everywhere."
Zhu Zai said, "Don't worry, I'm not that delicate, and I'm not blind, so why would I walk on bricks, wood, sand and gravel?"
Zhang Tianci quickly responded, "Yes, yes, sir, you are absolutely right. I will get busy now."
After sending Zhang Tianci away, Zhu Zaigui took Meng Chong, Teng Xiang and others to the first phase of the industrial park which was almost completed.
Looking at the several large workshops that had been built, Zhu Zaigui couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.
Although they still look a bit crude now, under the supervision of Zhang Tianci, these workshops are built quite solidly and can protect against wind and rain without any problems. They are now being coated with fire-retardant glue coating.
Although the fireproof ability of this fireproof material is average, it can at least prevent these wooden buildings from exploding in the event of a fire.
As long as there is no flashover, the fire can be extinguished or controlled quickly given the height of these buildings and the fire-fighting equipment prepared around them.
These are the experiences summed up by ancient people from generation to generation.
After all, in ancient China, wooden buildings have always been the mainstream. It was not until after the founding of the People's Republic of China that, with the improvement of productivity, non-flammable building materials such as cement and steel bars gradually replaced flammable wooden buildings.
Of course, the price of doing this is that the beauty of traditional architecture has begun to disappear in the countryside.
Except for some ancient towns and cities that are relatively well preserved, the rest of the places either do not have any decent ancient buildings, or are simply imitations of ancient buildings built with modern construction technology using reinforced concrete.
This imitation of ancient building seems to be quite realistic from a distance, but when you take a closer look, its original form is immediately revealed and there is no architectural beauty at all.
Therefore, when Zhu Zaigui designed and built this industrial park, he tried his best to take the architectural style of the Ming Dynasty into consideration and did not create any particularly unique buildings.
After all, even if Zhu Zaigui wanted to do it, with the current Ming Dynasty's building materials and construction capabilities, it is not certain that he could build the kind of industrial park that Zhu Zaigui saw in later generations.
Therefore, the overall architectural style of this industrial park is relatively pragmatic and conservative, like an open, low and single-story building.
After looking at the workshop area, Zhu Zaiqi also came to the living area. The living area is about 200 meters away from the work area. The architectural style of this area is the townhouse style that Zhu Zaiqi has seen in later generations. There are about 20 collective dormitories in a row of buildings, and each dormitory can only accommodate no more than eight people.
In addition, there are special sanitary and bathing areas next to each row of dormitories to ensure that the workers who are about to move in can have a relatively hygienic and clean living area.
After all, Zhu Zaigui is now engaged in food processing. If the hygiene conditions of the workers cannot be guaranteed, then wouldn’t the products he produces be dangerous goods?
Therefore, in Zhu Zaigui's plan, any worker who wants to enter the workshop to participate in production must take a bath, change clothes, and put on disposable gloves and masks before entering.
Otherwise, you are not allowed to enter the production workshop. Anyone who dares to break this rule will be beaten with fifty sticks first, and then directly fired, and the wages previously paid will be recovered!
If he had no money, then he would be embarrassed. Zhu Zaigui would have people throw him directly into the coal yard or lime factory in Xishan to dig coal or burn lime.
Anyway, there is no way I can let him off easily.
After all, food safety is paramount!
In this era without the latest sterilization equipment, if even the most basic hygienic production cannot be guaranteed, Zhu Zaigui might as well stay in the palace and be a peaceful prince, waiting for seventeen or eighteen years before successfully ascending the throne to become emperor.
But Zhu Zaigui was not the kind of person who could keep quiet. If he had to stay in the small Prince Yu's Mansion for seventeen or eighteen years, Zhu Zaigui would definitely not be able to bear it.
So since he chose to do something, Zhu Zaigui would naturally try his best to do it to the best of his ability and minimize the risks.
Otherwise, what’s the difference between him and those unscrupulous manufacturers who add chicken bone paste to starch sausages?
Zhu Zaigui still had some dignity to maintain. After all, he was a prince of the Ming Dynasty and a son of the emperor. How could he do such an immoral thing as giving birth to a child without an anus?
Besides, Zhu Zaigui did not have to pay taxes for his business. Apart from giving Huang Jin a three-tenth share of the profits, he would keep the rest of the profits. Faced with such a good business environment, Zhu Zaigui really had no reason to mess around.
After Zhu Zaigui inspected the living area, he said to Meng Chong, "Find the imperial physician Li Shizhen and ask him to help see if there is any way to drive away the snakes, insects, rats, ants and other harmful creatures in the park. Also, ask him if there is a special disinfectant that can be added to the workers' bathing water in the future. After all, the safety of our business is the first priority. If we fail to maintain good production hygiene and cause problems, it will not be a joke."
After hearing what Zhu Zaigui said, Meng Chong quickly wrote it down.
This matter is indeed of vital importance!
Previously, all production was hidden in a small courtyard at the back of the palace, and one or two people were enough to control the production quality.
However, when this industrial park is officially put into operation, the production lines hidden in the palace will be moved here in a more detailed and process-oriented manner, so some new problems will be encountered.
In addition to the crucial hygiene issue just mentioned by Zhu Zaigui, there is also the issue of production confidentiality.
Therefore, during Zhu Zaigui's production process design during this period, he also added many complicated steps to the production process of Yiran Sugar and Bingxin Sugar, and these steps were also interspersed in various production workshops.
Workers in charge of production will not be allowed to transfer positions in other workshops and can only change positions within a workshop to adapt to production.
In this way, the production secrets of Yiran Sugar and Bingxin Sugar will be kept secret for a long time, and Zhu Zaigui can use this confidentiality time to earn more profits. At the same time, he can also expand the industrial park to a larger size, thereby producing a richer variety of products.
