Chapter 2532 (1/2)
Five days later, a refrigeration factory in Kunyang city.
”Director Niu,” Miao Ying asked the director of the refrigeration factory in the small and messy office, ”as far as we know, your refrigeration factory is one of the few old factories in Kunyang city that has been operating for decades?”
”Yes,” said Director Niu, tidying up the table. ”I don't know. What can I do for you, police officers?”
”Oh, it's all right. I just want to ask you about freezing!” Miao Ying said, ”I think you are not old. Is this factory your family business?”
”40, not big?” Niu smiled awkwardly and replied, ”it's also a family business! Listen, why are you so tall?
”In fact, the factory belongs to my uncle. My uncle and aunt have no children, so after my uncle died, they passed the factory to me. When I was young, I didn't go to school well and have been working in the factory, so... I'm familiar with the business!”
”Do you still know when your factory was founded?” Miao Ying asked again.
”Well... I already had me at that time,” Niu recalled. ”It was about 83 or 84 years ago? However, at that time, it was just a small workshop. There were several small bungalows on the side of sile street. They couldn't do very good things. They could only make some cream popsicles... ”
”Oh...” Miao Ying thought and asked, ”so when did the refrigeration plant expand its scale?”
”Probably... The year Xiangjiang returned? In 1997, at that time, I had been an apprentice for a long time. I did it with my uncle. That's what you see now... ”
”Oh... So!” Miao Ying and Zhao Yu exchanged eyes and asked, ”Director Niu, did you have a cold storage in your freezer in about 86?”
”Cold storage?” Director Niu was stunned and said, ”the cold storage seemed more luxurious to us at that time, didn't it? But... If you say 86, I was only 6 years old at that time!
”Well, I heard my uncle say that we were all small workshops and things like small refrigerators at that time. The cold storage looked like it only after the mid-1990s.
”As far as I know, cold storage was rare at that time. It seems that there are only state-owned ones later, such as far east cold storage and wholesale market cold storage, which are specialized in fresh and aquatic products...”
”Oh...” Miao Ying glanced at Zhao Yu, then took out a photo of Su ruohua and asked, ”so... Have you seen this man?”
Director Niu carefully identified it, shook his head and said, ”I haven't seen it. Who is this man? Does it have anything to do with our factory? ”
”Director Niu,” said Zhao Yu, ”let me ask you another professional question. In the 1980s, did you know which private enterprise in Kunyang had advanced refrigeration technology?
”A refrigeration plant like yours is larger than yours?”
”Oh, well...” Niu shook his head and said, ”I can't say. As far as I know, there seems to be no more!
”To be honest, although my equipment is relatively primitive, it was very good to make cream popsicles at that time!”
”Well...” Miao Ying asked again, ”do you know hydroxyethyl substance? Or other food additives, preservatives and so on? ”
”This... Officer, the conscience of heaven and earth!” Director Niu misunderstood and quickly clarified, ”there are absolutely no additives and preservatives in our products!
”And the material you just mentioned, I've never heard of it. I... I didn't even graduate from primary school...”
In the talking room, the door of the office opened. Cui Lizhu, who was responsible for checking the cold storage, stood outside the door and motioned.
Zhao Yu and Miao Ying realized that Cui Lizhu did not find any abnormality.
So Zhao Yu said goodbye to Director Niu and left the freezer.
