Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

Chapter 600 Sharpen your sword and keep it from chopping wood

Fortunately, everyone knows what is important and what is not. These bullets need to be transported back to the main force. They are also short of bullets, especially Mauser pistol bullets. If this batch of bullets is transported back, it can help a lot.

After everyone has hoisted the weapons and ammunition off the ship, the next step will be food and other supplies.

Following Manager Qian's instructions, Shopkeeper Shen prioritized loading canned meat and compressed biscuits, and then distributed these things to all the boatmen who came today. After all, everyone came to help for free, and he didn't want to let the common people suffer.

When the two ships approached the shore, the person in charge on the shore immediately ordered the small fishing boats to approach. Ten small boats were just enough to transport the 20 tons of cargo from the large ship, which had been calculated long ago.

Seeing this, Liao Laoshuan quickly rowed the boat and brought his men over. Then Brother Liao climbed onto the boat skillfully, and the two people on top and the two below used simple tools to unload the cargo.

At this time, Shopkeeper Shen came out and said loudly: "Everyone, please stop and listen to me."

"We need to unload nearly a thousand tons of cargo tonight, which means a large ship like ours will have to make more than ten trips. This is a big job and requires everyone to maintain sufficient physical strength."

"As the saying goes: sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. Only when you have a full stomach can you have the strength to load and unload goods quickly."

"So we decided to give each person a can of meat and three compressed biscuits. They can eat one first and the rest when they are tired from working. We must ensure that everyone maintains sufficient physical strength so that they can work better."

"And if you are tired, don't force yourself. You can take a rest on the side. And be sure to pay attention to safety."

"At the same time, since we are transporting food this time, we will give everyone some at the end of the day as a reward."

Ever since Manager Shen knew that a large amount of supplies would be shipped here in the future, he prepared to form a professional transport fleet. The temporary gathering of everyone here like today can only be used for emergencies, and better ships and more professional people will definitely be needed in the future.

This involves the difference between full-time and part-time jobs. The local people rely on fishing at sea to support their families. It's okay to help once or twice, but if it happens too many times, it's definitely not okay.

Fortunately, most of the things to be transported in the future will be food. We only need to give a portion of it to the people who come to help. We cannot let these enthusiastic fellow villagers suffer any loss.

Upon hearing the good news, everyone present immediately cheered.

In fact, as long as it can help the troops and as long as it can hit the Japanese, it doesn't matter if everyone brings their own dry food. After all, fighting the Japanese requires the participation of the entire nation.

Of course, then again, if the troops had sufficient supplies, no one would refuse such a good intention.

And according to Manager Shen, the ship that arrived tonight was a giant cargo ship carrying a full 1,000 tons of supplies, which they had never encountered before.

Normally, ten or twenty tons is a lot, but now it has increased dozens of times in an instant. It is really hard to imagine.

Shopkeeper Shen had people bring in a large amount of compressed biscuits and canned meat, which he opened and distributed to everyone. He also specifically told them to eat them, as only after eating would they have the strength to work and unload the supplies quickly.

Brother Liao came from the big ship to their small fishing boat, carrying a large bag of compressed biscuits and three cans of beef. According to Manager Shen's suggestion, everyone could eat something first and then work together in ten minutes.

"Dad, little brother, these are the compressed biscuits distributed to us, three pieces each. I heard that these are specially provided to the military abroad. Two pieces are enough for a normal meal."

"Here are some canned meats, one for each person. We are going to have a good meal tonight."

Liao Laoshuan took the compressed biscuits and opened the package. A unique fragrance immediately filled the air. He sniffed hard and then couldn't help but exclaimed:

"My God, this is made from the finest grains, has a unique wheat aroma, and is even dotted with crushed peanuts and sesame seeds."

"Which prodigal son came up with this idea? They turned such a good thing into a snack. It's simply a waste of food."

You should know that in Guangdong Province, peanuts and sesame seeds are rare items, and their prices on the market are very high. Most people simply can't afford to eat them.

Then, under the guidance of Brother Liao, he first took a bite and then put it in his mouth to taste it carefully.

But just this one bite made him exclaim, "What the hell is this? How come it tastes so good? It has peanuts, sesame seeds, and soybeans, and it's also salted. No, it's sweetened with sugar. It's really luxurious."

It was a bit unbelievable that Liao Laoshuan actually tasted sweetness from the biscuits. You know, for poor people like them, the opportunity to eat sugar was very rare.

After swallowing a mouthful of biscuit, he was actually a little reluctant to take a second bite. This kind of thing should not be eaten like this. Instead, you should keep a small piece at home and cook it into wild vegetable porridge every day. This way, you won’t waste anything.

But Liao didn't have such an idea. He just puffed up his cheeks quickly and ate the compressed biscuits into his stomach in a short while.

He dared to swear that this was the most delicious thing he had ever eaten since he was born.

"Dad, why don't you eat it? Don't you like it? Let me tell you, this is delicious, sweet and fragrant."

When Liao Laoshuan saw his heartless and inexperienced youngest son, he didn't know what to say. This was not a question of whether he liked to eat it or not; it was simply that he couldn't bear to eat it.

At this time, Brother Liao also opened a can, looked at the meat inside, took a piece from it with his hand, put it in his mouth to taste it, and then asked curiously:

"What kind of meat is this? It feels weird, not like pork, nor chicken. I've never eaten it before, but it tastes good."

Upon hearing this, Liao also picked up a piece and started eating, but he couldn't tell what kind of meat it was. He could only look at his father. In his mind, his father was omnipotent.

Seeing this, Liao Laoshuan also became interested, so he picked up a piece and started eating, and was immediately immersed in this unique delicacy.

After a while, he sighed and said, "This is rabbit meat, and it's wild rabbit meat. No wonder you two can't tell the difference."

"I ate it when I was young, when you could still find rabbits in the wild, but now I haven't seen such a good thing for many years."

"But it would be a waste to just eat this good thing. We should cook some wild vegetable porridge instead."

Hearing his old man sighing again, Brother Liao quickly said:

"Dad, Shopkeeper Liao just said that only when you are well-fed can you have the strength to work. We can't delay important things because of the worry of saving money. At worst, we can leave a can of food for mom and little sister to taste."

After saying that, he picked up his piece of compressed biscuit, put it into the can to absorb the soup, and then put it into his mouth. I have to say, it tastes really good this way.
