Yun Suji couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the numbers behind the delivery schedule. www.しwxs. com【Fast update&nbp;&nbp;Please search】

The insufficient delivery of soybeans affects not only the production of soy sauce, but also the production of tofu, tempeh, and yellow sauce. These are the flagship products of food factories. Although broad beans can be used as a substitute in some places, they are not the same thing after all.

On the railway track in the factory area, workers are pushing a flatbed truck to the cleaning workshop. On the truck are rattan baskets filled with white radish. On another track, dried shredded radish is transported from the drying workshop and is being sent for packaging.

Yun Suji was watching intently when suddenly the secretary knocked on the door and reported: "Chief Xi Yazhou is here."

"Ask him to wait downstairs for a while, I'll come down right away." Yun Suji said.

Accompanying the new Army Chief of Staff and Commander-in-Chief of the South China Army is Chen Sigen. This fitness coach and nutritionist has retired from the position of leader of the special reconnaissance team. He now works in the Ministry of Civil Welfare and Labor, specializing in national fitness and National nutrition work.

Their visit to the food factory this time was mainly for the logistics and food support work for the upcoming mainland raid.

It has been the sixth year since the Senate founded the army. The army's logistics supply has also undergone several changes. However, the basic daily supply standards are still in accordance with the standards set by Chen Sigen when the security group was first established. The specific supply standards are: Rice 850 grams, 350 grams of vegetables, 50 grams of soy products, 50 grams of meat or aquatic products, 20 grams of oil and fat, and 10 grams of salt. This standard is not high, but it basically meets the needs of soldiers for daily training and organizing camp affairs. When encountering collective labor, field training, or expeditions, the supply standards will be adjusted according to the situation.

As Chen Sigen pointed out many times, the supply standards of Fubo Army can only meet the needs of calories and vitamins, and the supply of protein and fat is seriously insufficient. Therefore, the physical fitness level of the soldiers is low - muscles require a large amount of protein to synthesize. . Training alone won't really solve this problem.

The supply tone set in the mainland strategy is that staple food relies on "local transfer", but the supply of non-staple food must rely on the food industry of the Senate. Although the prosperous Pearl River Delta will not lack chickens, ducks, freshwater fish and pigs. However, the health department is still cautious about preparing animal foods on site.

The Joint Logistics Headquarters sent several official letters to food factories, asking them to develop military food that is "easy to carry," "easy to eat," "not perishable," and "rich in protein and fat." After reading this official letter, Yun Suji could only smile bitterly.

The only products that best meet this requirement are cans. You yourself have killed the glass bottles and cans. Isn’t the rest just bacon and jerky? Not to mention whether these things are "healthy" enough, they simply cannot be "easy to eat". Most of these foods are either die-hard. Either it is extremely salty and difficult to eat without secondary cooking.

Xi Yazhou and Chen Sigen are both soldiers who have served overseas for a long time, so they both have the image of brothers with dark skin and strong muscles. Seeing Yun Suji, Xi Yazhou stretched out his hand and said with a big smile: "Director Yun, long time no see! The dry sausage you tried for Lianqin last time was very good! It's delicious when eaten directly."

Yun Suji shook hands and said, "It's a pity that there are too few raw materials for dry sausage, so we can't process more." He originally wanted to say, "There's not enough meat even." Finally, he swallowed his words.

"We are here this time to see if we can find more substitutes." Chen Sigen said, "The soldiers' protein and fat intake is insufficient. I estimate that during the mainland strategy, the soldiers' daily caloric needs will not be less than 5,000 kilograms." Ka, just eating is not enough."

"We have already considered it." Even though Yun Suji has been in the countryside for half a month, he usually still has work to do with the Tiandihui, but he has never let go of the development of new products in the food factory. In recent years, as long as supply conditions permit, he will trial-produce various foods in small quantities. Even if mass production is not possible, he will try to see if it is possible. Therefore, there are quite a lot of products that can be put into production cumulatively. Some products are manufactured in small batches. Supplied to the Senate's special stores and the Ziji brand sales in Guangzhou.

"Let's go to the workshop and have a look." Yun Suji said, "I'll introduce it as we go. You guys can see which products are suitable. As long as the raw materials can be supplied, the production line can be adjusted."

"This is great." Xi Yazhou's eyes lit up.

Yun Suji took them to the production area and walked into the first workshop.

"This is a poultry and egg pickling workshop." Yun Suji introduced, "Watch your steps."

The most eye-catching thing in the workshop is the large pools covered with ceramic tiles one after another. There are wooden frames suspended above the pools, and rows of large bamboo baskets hung below, sinking in the pool water.

Both Xi Yazhou and Chen Sigen came to the workshop of a food factory for the first time. Although the smell inside was really unpleasant, the ground was still wet. Still feel curious.

"These ponds mainly produce salted eggs. The eggs are in the baskets. The production process of salted eggs is simple, and the eggshells can be stored for a long time if they are not broken." Yun Suji said. "Poultry eggs are one of our relatively abundant sources of protein. The high salt content can replenish the salt in the soldiers' bodies."

Xi Yazhou was very interested: "How do I remember that salted eggs are made with yellow mud?"

"Yellow mud can also be used. But the brine pickling process is simpler. Just test the pp concentration of salt in the pool water every day. If it is not enough, just add salt. If it is mud, more stirring is needed after adding salt. Besides, brine The fluidity is also better. Just soak it in directly, no need to manually wrap it in mud."

"What's in those big bags?" Xi Yazhou pointed to several bags half-sunk and half-floating on the pool.

"It's red pepper. The yolk of salted eggs is easy to shorten and produce oil." Yun Suji said, "I have also thought about transportation and packaged it in egg trays. It is the common kind in supermarkets, in groups of twelve. Use Made of concrete pulp. Pair it with a thicker carton. Then put it in a standard packaging box to withstand long-distance transportation..."

Chen Sigen shook his head and said: "Salted eggs are not good. The shelf life is too short. Even if we are fighting in spring and the temperature is not high, the shelf life of raw eggs is only one month. And your kind of salted eggs will last about a month without salt water. It cannot be saved.”

Xi Yazhou also shook his head now. He knew the transshipment efficiency of the joint logistics headquarters. It was shipped from Lingao to Hong Kong, then from Hong Kong to Guangzhou, and then distributed to the front lines. This process indeed did not take more than thirty days, but This salted egg has become "fresh". Warehouses at all levels cannot store it and can only deliver it as it comes. Obviously somewhat unrealistic.

"If you want to distribute salted eggs, salted eggs pickled in yellow mud are more feasible. But they have to be transported in sealed baskets. If they are packaged separately, it will not work once the yellow mud dries." Chen Sigen looked at the water in the pool. Baskets of salted eggs, "When rationing eggs to the army, it is best to divide the eggs with rice."

Xi Yazhou asked: "Can you produce egg and rice cakes?"

"It's not technically difficult, but the production quality is very unstable." Yun Suji has thought about this for a long time. "We don't have the ability to do spray drying, so we can only use hot steam to mix and dry."

Then they entered the second workshop. Since cooked food was produced here, Yun Suji asked the naturalized people to bring three cotton white coats, hats, masks, and oilcloth high boots.

"The clothes have been cleaned and disinfected." Yun Suji said, "The main thing is not to touch any equipment."

As soon as the workshop door was opened, the sound of rumbling machinery could be heard inside. Xi Yazhou noticed that there was a power axis on the ceiling of the workshop. This was mechanized production.

"This is the meat product workshop." Yun Suji's voice was a little unclear because she was wearing a mask.

"Is dry sausage made here?"

"Yes, but we only make sausages here. To make dry sausages, we need to go through an air-drying and smoking process." Yun Suji said.

The workshop was filled with steam, and Xi Yazhou didn't smell the fragrance, but instead smelled an indescribable smell.

"What is being mixed here is sausage meat filling." Yun Suji said, pointing to a piece of equipment that resembled a cement mixer in appearance and shape. It was driven by a belt on the axis and was stirring rumblingly. "The raw materials are in the rice crushing workshop. Processed into different specifications: ground meat or diced meat, and then stirred here. Of course, starch must be added as filler. Then add salt, spices and various seasonings, and finally a small amount of nitrous acid sodium."

"Sodium nitrite?" Xi Yazhou was startled, "This is poisonous."

"Yes, this stuff is indeed toxic, so you have to control the dosage. But it is an important additive in processed meat products. In addition to being used for color development, it also has a seasoning effect - you think the sausage is delicious. It’s very useful. Of course, its more important use is as a preservative.”

A worker poured a bucket full of green plant debris into a blender.

"This is basil. This batch is made of Italian-flavored herb sausage." Yun Suji said, "Different flavors of sausage can be made according to the added spices and seasonings."

As he was talking, the worker pulled the gear lever, stopped the machine, and opened the discharge port.

Chen Sigen looked at the minced meat being released from the outlet and felt a little uncomfortable: "To be honest, I really don't want to know what kind of meat this is..."

"Enema, commonly known as butterfat offal tube." Yun Suji joked, "After the Germans killed the pigs, there was nothing left - they chopped it all up and made it into enema."

"That store in Nanhai sells it," Xi Yazhou asked quickly. "It should be good meat." He felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach.

"That's natural. I still need to add more rice, and I also add some chicken or duck meat for filling. But you can rest assured that no matter what kind of meat is used, it is good meat, especially the fat cubes, but it is serious. Hard fat." Yun Suji said.

"Where are these?" Chen Sigen asked the minced meat in front of him. (To be continued.)
