Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Now that Lin Ran has spoken, what can Wei Chenbin do if he doesn't want to give up? Li Yuanhao patted his shoulder and said, "Old Wei, we have to change our minds."

"Mr. Su, how do you make the materials you mentioned?" Lin Ran asked first.

A large part of their monthly operating costs comes from transportation.

Although black soil is not valuable in Henan, it still requires high transportation fees to transport it to the capital.

If this problem can be solved, their operating costs will drop again!

The Su Lei in front of him was indeed a rare talent.

Not only does he have a unique understanding of the production of pottery, but he also has a unique understanding of machine modification and even the saving of raw materials.

Su Lei said: "In fact, it's not difficult. It's just a chemical change that spreads the properties of black soil to other places."

He didn't know how to explain it to Lin Ran. After all, it involved chemical knowledge.

Many craftsmen were silent.

They had heard the word chemistry from Lin Ran before, and now here comes someone who knows it!

They could only watch silently.

Su Lei took out a piece of paper with some raw materials written on it.

"Clay, black soil, feldspar, quartz, and dilute hydrochloric acid..." Lin Ran looked at the raw material list and couldn't help but be surprised.

"What I wrote should be available in the market." Su Lei thought that Lin Ran couldn't understand it, so he quickly explained, "As long as you show it to the shop owner, he should recognize it."

"No, I just think there are too few people who understand chemistry in this era." Lin Ran smiled.

Just leave the shopping to the craftsmen.

After a while, the craftsman came from the warehouse and prepared all the required materials.

Wei Chengbin had a feeling that Lin Ran was directing, because these raw materials were often used by them when doing old work.

"Do you still have these things in your warehouse?" Su Lei was surprised.

But he didn't waste time. He took the raw materials according to a certain proportion, ground them and poured them into the grinder.

As the grinder made a humming sound, Wei Chengbin couldn't help but feel his heart bleeding.

"Without black soil, the handicrafts made have no soul." Wei Chengbin looked at the grinder and mourned for the lost soil.

At this time, Lin Ran was communicating with Su Lei.

“Is there anything special about the new material?”

"Of course," Su Lei said, "The materials made using this method have high strength, high temperature resistance, and can simulate glass materials."

At this time, even Lin Ran was murmuring in his heart.

"Can you make new materials by just mixing them like this?" Lin Ran had no impression that he had ever been to a factory and didn't know about this material.

I learned a lot today.

Although if imitations of new materials are made, they are likely to be recognized at a glance.

But when it comes to handicrafts, as Su Lei said, users are more comfortable using them.

"Where did you study this material?" Lin Ran asked expectantly.

The person in front of me is not only a production expert, but also a scientific researcher!

Smart people always appreciate each other.

Su Lei said without any secret: "Although the traditional ceramics we produced in the past are more resistant to high temperatures than ordinary glass, their thermal insulation and strength are very poor."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shook his head.

Their ceramic factory first fell into crisis because the bowls produced and the vegetables stored suddenly became cold in winter.

At that time, it was Su Lei who used this kind of research to find a new type of earth material that had good thermal insulation and was not easily broken.

It was this discovery that led to his promotion to the leader of the production team.

But the good times did not last long. Because the company's products were not competitive, they once again reached the edge of bankruptcy.

At this moment, Li Yuanhao found him and invited him to join Lin Ran's workshop, which led to today's scene.

Lin Ran suddenly realized that he understood that what Su Lei was actually referring to was industrial ceramics.

Industrial ceramics refer to precision ceramics that are mixed with different proportions of raw materials into formulated soil to increase its various characteristics.

But in this era, the concept has not yet been formed.

He looked at Su Lei with surprise in his eyes: "Mr. Su, how did you find this method?"

"At that time, I saw ceramics from the Ming Dynasty, and it was a broken ceramic. I was very curious when I saw the structure of a hornet's nest inside, so I took it back to the laboratory to study it." Su Lei said with a smile, "Then I tried to reverse engineer it. I actually tested out the ingredients."

As the sound of the grinder gradually subsided, the raw materials inside had been mixed into a black and shiny earth.

It looks more high-end than the previous black soil!

Many craftsmen in the workshop looked at the black soil in front of them with surprised expressions.

They had no idea that they could actually produce a pile of black soil from a handful of black soil.

"But can this thing be used?" Wei Chengbin asked with a frown.

He is still a relatively conservative person and does not dare to use new materials.

"Don't worry, we used to use this material for tableware and for eating. There is absolutely no problem in making handicrafts." Su Lei was full of confidence.

Wei Chengbin glanced at Lin Ran, and then the two workpieces took out the soil and polished the shape.

You can see the finished product tomorrow. If Su Lei hadn't blown it so well, Wei Chengbin would never have been able to hand over the remaining soil.

"There are still some areas for improvement in the production process." Su Lei said to the craftsman.

Wei Chengbin was a little unhappy.

This man not only moved his tools, he also moved his raw materials, and now he has to improve the process.

He said with a black line on his face: "Mr. Su, our workshop has always produced ceramics according to specific standards and established processes. You just came here and you want to tamper with our production process. Isn't it inappropriate?"

Lin Ran laughed immediately after hearing this.

Wei Chengbin is jealous.

He said to Wei Chengbin: "Mr. Wei, don't worry, we might as well listen to what Mr. Su has to say first."

Wei Chengbin is not good at management, but he is good at production and creation.

Su Lei has rich experience in factory production, knows how to improve production efficiency, and can also conduct independent research.

With these two talents, there is no need to worry about the production of the factory.

He thought to himself that he must keep Su Lei no matter what.

Now I want to know what kind of medicine Su Lei sells in the gourd.

Su Lei said to the craftsmen: "The traditional craft is to use adobe to sinter and then get the finished product..."

"Haha, you are wrong." Wei Chengbin laughed loudly, "We use the double firing method, and it takes two firings to get the finished product."

"This? Not bad." Su Lei praised, "As expected of the chief engineer of Shengshi Craftsmanship, he has the same idea as me. Why would you think of this?"

"Let me explain." Lin Ran said, he understood what Su Lei meant.

Pottery is made of clay, but porcelain does contain mixed materials such as quartz, kaolin, and feldspar. The two parts are fired at different temperatures.

In order to achieve the best firing effect, firing should be done in stages.

Su Lei's eyes lit up and he looked at Lin Ran in surprise.

"As expected of Mr. Lin, you have figured out the experience that my teacher has accumulated over ten years at such a young age!"

Su Lei solemnly raised his hand with respect on his face!
