Binzhou State-owned Cannery Factory
Wang Yue and Chen Xi arrived at the cannery very quickly. As soon as they got off the car, they saw the factory director Su Su Yitian and a group of cannery leaders standing at the entrance to greet them. It was obviously Chen Xi who said hello on the way. However, Wang Yue was not unhappy. They only expressed respect for him. Compared with those meaningless greetings and farewells, it was obvious that these leaders who were still wearing work clothes were more cute and respectable.
After greeting everyone, Wang Yue didn't waste any time and went directly to the cannery's laboratory. This was not surprising. In fact, a large factory like Binzhou State-owned Cannery not only has a laboratory, but also a power workshop. , water plant, cold storage, pharmaceutical workshop, tertiary industry workshop, these are all available, and they may even be underestimated. When Wang Yue was a child, he heard that this factory could be converted to produce landmines and grenades during wartime, but he didn’t know if it was true. .
The reason why he came to the cannery laboratory was to see the development of new products here. Although the previous ten-kilogram cans were very good, they were very inconvenient to carry. In order to enhance the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army and further reduce logistics pressure, and at the same time, the nutrition of the officers and soldiers must be ensured. There is an urgent need for a high-quality field ration that is light in weight, high in calories, and tastes good.
The first product Su Yitian brought to Wang Yue was instant noodles. Yes, it was fried instant noodles, high in oil and salt, and also added a little powdered sugar. A small piece is only 50 grams, but has more than 200 calories. Ka, it is definitely junk food among junk foods, but this thing is good. It can not only be eaten soaked, but also chewed dry. It tastes good no matter how you eat it. It is a perfect emergency ration.
You can't bring instant noodles with you, but it doesn't matter. Wang Yue has already started to have a little bug in the card system, so he can't bring it with him? Then it would have been built in 1940. This thing is not complicated.
So, Wang Yue guided Li Yunlong to make a slightly crude instant noodles. Worried that it was not safe, he also took photos and spent money to publish them in newspapers, creating an inventor persona for Li Yunlong. This is another reason why Li Yunlong attracts bees and butterflies.
Li Yunlong: Thank you!
At least, after some operations, the instant noodles can finally be brought over.
A piece of bread, a small packet of condiments, and the polyethylene packaging only weighs 60 grams, plus a 30-gram packet of high-sugar soy milk powder. This is a breakfast. It may not feel full, but the energy is enough.
The second product is a chocolate cereal bar, a 40-gram cereal bar, cocoa butter substitute, sugar, multi-dimensional cereals, minerals, vitamin C. One small piece has more than 200 calories of energy. Two cereal bars, plus one A small packet of 20 grams of concentrated broth has quite a lot of energy.
Wang Yue tasted it and found that it tasted pretty good, but the hardness was indeed a bit high, probably due to the low water content, but it didn't matter, the flaws were not hidden, and using one hundred grams of food to guarantee the energy of a meal was pretty good.
The third product is "instant rice". In Wang Yue's previous impression, this thing should have been invented quite late, but later I found out that it turned out that the Beiyang Army began to use it in large quantities as early as 1906 during the Qiu Cao in Zhangde. After it was distributed, the only difference at that time might be that the taste was a bit off.
When Su Yitian and the others came here, there was no problem of poor taste. They quickly developed more than a dozen flavors of fried rice, including dehydrated vegetables, meat, ham, and seafood. You won’t get tired of eating it in a short time. One hundred grams, paired with a small packet of ten grams of vegetable and egg soup, is also a perfect meal.
Adding the three together is a 24-hour emergency ration meal developed by the cannery. There are many flavors, and they all have some differences, but they are basically the same. Three meals a day only weigh 300 grams. They are rich in nutrients and delicious. It is easy to eat, and even the packaging is made of polyethylene that was rarely produced in the 1940s. It is quite tall and tall. Due to the weight limit, the energy provided seems to be a bit small. Compared with the weight of Chinese soldiers in the 1940s, Wang Yue thought it was enough.
There was no way. The supply capacity of the Eighth Route Army was really poor. He had to let the soldiers bring as much dry food as possible, so he set a specification of 300 grams for Su Yitian and the others, which was about the same as half a pound over there in 1940. , a soldier can carry ten bags at a time without any problem, and it will not affect his movement or carry weapons and ammunition.
With the efforts of Su Yitian and them, the cost of such an A meal was actually controlled to 6 yuan per serving. It was obvious that they wanted to save small profits but quick turnover.
Wang Yue didn't hesitate and bought 100 million copies directly.
Considering that the soldiers would not be able to bear this kind of ration if they were always eaten, so in addition to this, the cannery also developed meal B, which is different from the polyethylene packaging of meal A. It is a rectangular aluminum A jar needs to be opened with a can opener. Of course, the same is true with a bayonet. The contents can be taken out by opening 2/3 of the jar along the dotted line on the edge. Then the jar can be used to draw water, and it can be used to cook things. The 2/3 cover that has been opened can also be used as a handle, which is particularly convenient and practical. It is also waterproof and impact-proof, making it especially suitable for battlefield environments.
As for the contents of the jar, breakfast, dinner and meal A are almost the same. The only difference is lunch. Lunch becomes instant rice and a small bag of polyethylene-wrapped cooking bags. Wang Yue tried a braised pork vegetable bag. , the taste is very good, and the shelf life of eighteen months is sufficient.
In order to ensure that the box of meal B is large enough and more convenient to use, the contents of this box are double portions. One jar is 920 grams, which is enough for a soldier to consume for two days, and the price is also controlled at 17 yuan.
Continue to come to 100 million copies. This is so much. In 1940, China alone had several million troops. This amount could be easily consumed by the military alone.
The packaging of meal C is almost the same as that of meal B. The box looks slightly taller and the weight is correspondingly higher, weighing 1200 grams. Compared with meal B, both dinner and lunch here provide cooking packages, which is closer For a normal meal, by the way, there is also a small long strip of glutinous rice wrapped in polyethylene, three cigarettes, five matches, and the price of defeat ah chewing gum has also been increased to 19 yuan.
Wang Yue didn't say anything about this. It wasn't necessary. He wasn't a bald eagle, so why did he do it so easily? No more for now.
Seeing that Wang Yue was not interested for the time being, Su Yitian took out the meal D that had been prepared for a long time. How should I put it, this is definitely the monkey version of 24-hour rations. It is packaged in very tight small squares and looks like a box of sugar cubes. , opened it and saw that it was almost the same, two pieces of sweet chocolate, two pieces of nougat, two pieces of toffee, two cereal bars, a few pieces of fruit candies, a few small packets of broth and soy milk powder were added to the It only weighs 250 grams, but provides more than 1,200 calories of energy, which is more than A meal. However, the price is only four yuan, which is more cost-effective than previous A meals.
I didn’t say anything, here are 100 million copies, no, 200 million copies. This thing is great. One person can carry it around with one day’s worth of rations. Even if it is a bit embarrassing for the Eighth Route Army, it is still appropriate to give this thing to the Ministry of Military Affairs. It's so good that ordinary soldiers can't even eat it.
And it’s not just China. The war in Europe will expand in the next step. If this thing can be sent over, it will be a luxury product. Europeans who even eat sawdust will definitely not refuse this. The only question is how much to sell it for. Woolen cloth?
In addition to 24-hour emergency rations, Wang Yue also commissioned a cannery to develop a cola - "Roma Coke" - this is a real trademark. Ahmed personally went to the noodle country to register the trademark. It is an absolutely regular product. As for the formula , don’t worry, many small local factories have copied Coke, and the taste is much better than that of a certain domestic Coke. The only disadvantage is that you don’t dare to add messy things to the original solution.
Among the several flavors of cola, Wang Yue quickly chose the one closest to Bald Eagle's local product. It comes with a glass bottle. A bottle of 300 ml costs one dollar and fifty cents. He had no choice. The glass bottle was too expensive, so he hesitated. , Wang Yue also placed an order for 100 million bottles.
The reason why he created such a coke can be regarded as Wang Yue's obsession. Since others can rely on war to expand the influence of their products, he can also do it. He can create some messy secret formula and promote the product by making false claims. Who would dare? Do the same thing.
As for unhealthy? No kidding, the over-nourished 21st century dare not ban the sale of this stuff. Why do you care about what happened in 1940? Believe it or not, a small bottle of this stuff could save a life in 1942.
Wang Yue just wants to sell this thing all over the world. The bald eagle army drinks 100 million bottles of Coke and blows it around. When the time comes, he will get a billion bottles and destroy those rubbish drinks.
And don't underestimate this small glass bottle. This is an absolute industrial product. During the war, this gadget can be used for many purposes. If it spreads, it will have a great effect on promoting the war.
Then Wang Yue visited the cannery. What the factory is currently producing is the "Roma" canned beef ordered by Wang Yue. It is actually a cheap canned lunch meat, 340 grams each, 1.7 yuan. How do you say this thing, let Wang Yue eat it? He needed to think about it, but he suddenly placed an order for 100,000 tons and 300 million units. It is said that the cannery has added ten more soldering and canning production lines in the past few months, and is producing cans day and night.
But this truly inferior canned product carries Wang Yue's great expectations. It must not only improve the health of the Chinese people, but also be prepared for export and dumping on the vast European battlefield. This is no joke. In order to improve the taste, canneries Thousands of experiments have been carried out here, and even special chefs have used them. The "canned beef" they have produced will definitely beat Spam in terms of taste. I am afraid that even the soldiers of Bald Eagle will not be able to refuse this stuff. .
Some people died, but not completely...
