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

At present, the company has invested in nearly 20 farms of various sizes, raising approximately eight million wild rabbits, ten thousand wild boars, twenty thousand wild goats, and five thousand bison. Of course, there are also many local animals, but they are all canned anyway, and the Chinese people don't care about that.

Of course, these measures have certainly received strong support from local farmers and nearby residents. Many farmers even sent people to capture a large number of wild rabbits and wild boars from near their own farms and sent them directly to the farm we opened, without even asking for a penny, just to get rid of these annoying guys.

After all, farmers had killed these animals in large numbers before, but no one in the local area ate them, so they had to dig a lot of deep pits for landfill, which was a considerable expense.

Now, as long as we hire a few drivers, we can use trucks to transport all these hateful guys to the farm run by Kong Hao, which will save a lot of trouble.

The most important thing is that these newly opened farms have no competitive relationship with these old farms, so they don’t have to worry about their own interests being affected by the increase in the number of farms.

The surrounding residents will also earn extra income, and there are even many hunters who specialize in this field, and the income they earn is far greater than those who honestly screw in factories.

The local town hall provides the greatest support. In many places, wasteland is only charged a symbolic pound, of course, on the condition that a large number of jobs are provided for local people.

After all, if a farm can be opened on wasteland, there will definitely be corresponding canning factories and farms next to it. In addition to increasing the income of local people, it can also generate a large amount of tax revenue. This is a great thing that kills multiple birds with one stone. We must support it with all our strength.

The main thing is that opening a cannery requires supporting facilities in various places, including water, electricity, factory buildings, and transportation.

I heard that all canned food is to be exported, which involves ports, docks and ships. There is a huge profit in this. Niu Niu Country is a country founded on merchants, so the service in this regard is quite thoughtful.

Of course, the key is to have strong financial resources and a huge network of relationships, and Kong Hao definitely has both of these.

Not only that, Kong Hao also sent people to build a large number of poultry breeding bases in the coastal areas here. Based on the breeding experience of our base, they carried out large-scale breeding of various broilers and laying hens.

In addition to obtaining a large amount of rope maggots that are not cultured in water at the slaughterhouse on the farm, a large amount of corn and wheat bran are also used as feed. The scale of this is unmatched in China.

Especially wheat bran, a by-product after wheat is processed into flour, is very cheap. After mixing with soybean cake, fish meal and some additives, it becomes an excellent feed that can make broilers produce quickly and allow laying hens to produce a large number of eggs.

Moreover, this is the most advanced breeding model and feed formula at present. Kong Hao also specially ordered people to produce patents and set up a company specializing in the production of feed. This is also a good business that can make a lot of money.

Kong Hao’s goal is to achieve a farm scale in this place with 30 million broiler chickens and 10 million laying hens.

If each hen lays four eggs a week on average, that would be 2250 million eggs a month. There are about ten eggs in a pound, about twenty eggs in a kilogram, and two hundred thousand eggs in a ton, which means tons of eggs can be obtained in a month.

The harvested eggs can be made into real egg powder and canned eggs. You should know that the nutritional value of transporting back a thousand tons of egg powder is completely different from that of transporting back a thousand tons of grain. We can store this kind of thing for future use.

Faced with Minister Zhang's soul-searching questioning, Kong Hao could only bite the bullet and say:

"Commander, this is a good thing. I hope there will be more of this kind of thing. Recently, the output of our cannery has reached a new high. Together with the meat from the farm, we can produce about 3,000 tons of canned food per month, which is 60 million cans."

"As for how this situation came about, I actually don't know. I'm just an industrialist, so how would I know about these things?"

"Oh, it's almost time for lunch. Let's go eat together. A large number of wild animals appeared yesterday. According to the usual practice, we should have all kinds of offal in the canteen today. Our cooks are very skilled in cooking, so we can go and try their cooking skills."

"Well, I've heard that the food here is the most sumptuous among the Eighth Route Army. I'll go and try some meat today."

Hearing that there was something delicious to eat instantly diverted Minister Zhang's attention. Although our troops can now obtain a large amount of various meats, most of them are stored in canned form. Even at the headquarters, we cannot eat meat for every meal.

Basically, we only eat meat every other day, which is pretty good. It is much better than before, and everyone is very satisfied with their current life.

When the two arrived at the canteen in the industrial area, people there were already queuing up for food. At Kong Hao's suggestion, the decoration of most canteens was similar to that of university canteens in later generations, so that the efficiency of getting food was very fast.

There were more than twenty large basins lined up in the cafeteria, filled with a variety of dishes, including stir-fried rabbit liver, braised rabbit intestines, fried rabbit lungs, spicy rabbit head, and a stir-fried rabbit heart and lungs. All of them were high in oil, salt, and calories.

Of course, there are also a few side dishes, such as stir-fried shredded potatoes, stir-fried wild tea, etc. After all, we have now initially gotten rid of the state of not having enough food and have begun to pay attention to the nutritional combination of meat and vegetables.

The sight of thousands of people eating together was an eye-opener for Minister Zhang. Even the air was filled with an intoxicating smell that made him sniff hard.

While the two were queuing, Kong Hao explained with a smile:

"Commander, even though there are so many things today, we only do it once or twice a week. Most of them are animal organs and some skeletons that cannot be used for canning. This kind of thing is not easy to store, and it would be a bit of a waste if we don't eat it quickly."

"Usually we only have two dishes and one soup, one meat dish and one vegetable dish, which is enough to ensure everyone's nutrition."

When Minister Zhang saw this scene, he was filled with emotion. This situation was very rare in China. Even now, when supplies were already abundant, it was still extremely difficult for poor people to have a proper meal of white rice.

"Xiao Kong, I know about this situation. I have visited other canning factories before and I have seen the same situation there, but the scale is not as large as yours, and the variety is not as much as yours. I have to have a good meal today."
