Chapter 602 - It's better to buy than to build
The cadets of the Tang Royal Military Academy had a different kind of lunch.
To say that it is better than the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, it is naturally impossible.
After all, half of the students in the academy are noble children, and they must have been to Dude, Ajinomoto, and Wuheju.
No matter how delicious an instant noodle is, it can't be better than the deliciousness of these places.
However, because it is just an ordinary instant noodle, it looks like a clear soup with little water, but it can have such a taste, which makes the students very satisfied and looking forward to it.
Under the influence of someone, the military academy will arrange some cadets to engage in field training every once in a while.
Anyway, not far from Chang'an City, there are Lishan Mountain and Zhongnan Mountain, if you are fierce enough, you can also go to Huashan.
The conditions for this field training can't be compared with those in the academy.
When the conditions are good, everyone is allowed to carry military rations and march quickly.
When the conditions are poor, you will be directly given to survive in the wild.
Now that this instant noodle tastes so good, wouldn't it be better to eat it in the field training in the future?
"Kuan'er, I gave this instant noodle to Shubao and the pharmacist, and everyone was very satisfied. Later, I'm going to go to Daming Palace and let Your Majesty try it too. If there is no problem, this will begin to spread in the army, and in the future, instant noodles will be used as the standard configuration of military rations, especially for soldiers who go to the grassland to fight, priority will be given to supplies. ”
Cheng Yanjin has always been in a hurry, and he implemented the instant noodles thing on the same day.
At the Tang Royal Military Academy, Cheng Yanjin, the person in charge of logistics, agreed, Qin Qiong, the governor, also agreed, and the respected Li Jing had no opinion, so there was really no problem.
Find Li Shimin, the nominal dean, to confirm again, it is nothing more than Cheng Biting Jin is showing his merits!
That's right, he's doing it!
If you are in a high position, it is not enough to just bury your head in hard work, and you have to let the leader see your efforts and achievements in time.
This is also very common in the workplace of later generations.
In particular, this is even more important for some state-owned enterprises or enterprises with the nature of state-owned enterprises.
"Since everyone thinks it's good, it's okay to make instant noodles on a large scale, but I think the taste of this instant noodles can also be improved by Kang Laosan, and the current one is not necessarily the best."
Li Kuan knows that there are many flavors of instant noodles in later generations, and they are far from being as monotonous as everyone eats today.
If the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty can eat some more delicious military food, Li Kuan is still willing to provide more advice.
"Improvement can go on forever, but mass production can also continue. Anyway, the current instant noodles are countless times better than the military food eaten by the soldiers in the army, which is enough for the last ten or eight years. When the national strength of our Datang Dynasty is deeper, maybe there will be no war on the frontier at all, and the food of the soldiers will definitely be better at that time. ”
"If it is a large-scale production, I suggest that the production method of this instant noodles be announced, and let the merchants in Chang'an City produce it themselves, and the Ministry of War is responsible for purchasing qualified instant noodles."
Li Kuan hurriedly bit Jin You's intention to set up a bubble noodle workshop in the Tang Royal Military Academy, and hurriedly put forward his own opinions.
To maximize the yield of instant noodles and improve the taste of instant noodles, it will be more reliable to make it marketable.
Otherwise, ten years from now, instant noodles are estimated to not change much compared to now.
As for whether this will lead to the secret recipe of military rations being learned by the opponent, Li Kuan felt that there was no need to worry about it at all.
Looking around, Datang's opponents are becoming less and less worthy of being called opponents.
Of course, with the exception of Western eclipse, it is not yet the surrounding range of Datang.
"Military rations are procured from merchants? This...... Wouldn't that be too hasty? ”
Although Cheng Yanjin was not hostile to businessmen, he was still a little surprised by Li Kuan's proposal.
"Instant noodles are not too difficult to make. Even if it is strictly confidential, it will not take long for a merchant to figure out how to make it. When the time comes, the same instant noodles may cost two pennies for one piece of instant noodles in the college's own workshop, but one penny is enough to buy them outside......"
Li Kuan didn't go on.
With Cheng Biting Gold's wisdom, he naturally understands it in seconds.
When the time comes, he, the person who proposed to set up an instant noodle workshop, is expected to become a joke for the nobles.
Even those who are full of food and have nothing to do will come to a few books to impeach, saying that he is greedy for the money of the workshop.
Otherwise, why do you have to spend two pennies on something that people can do for one penny?
"You have a point. Anyway, the production of instant noodles is not difficult, so announce the production method and let the merchants in Chang'an City set up several instant noodle workshops to reduce the price of this instant noodles. ”
Cheng Yanjin is not the kind of person who is stubborn.
Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that the person who proposed it was his son-in-law.
If it were a different person, he might not be able to listen to him.
……
It's been a while since Oda came to Chang'an.
The fishing industry in the East China Sea did not treat him badly, and the Chu Wangfu also spoke his mind.
After he and some of the Japanese came to Chang'an City, they were placed in a large courtyard and distributed various rewards in the form of silver coins and tickets.
With money in their arms, these widows who wanted to take root in the Tang Dynasty immediately bought a house in Chang'an City.
And as the leader, Oda Kiri's reward is also the most generous.
Although he bought a small yard, a four-wheeled carriage, and a few slaves, Oda still had a lot of money on him.
If you change people, you may be able to keep this money and live in peace.
However, Xiao Tian Che hopes to find a place to go for this money, to see what suitable industries can be invested, and it can be regarded as so that he can integrate more deeply into the new country of Datang.
By the way, under the arrangement of the Chu Palace, Xiao Tianche is now an ordinary farmer in Chang'an County, and he can justifiably tell others that he is now a Tang person!
"Captain, you read this article in Datang Daily, I think this instant noodles seem to be very interesting?"
Wei Chi Wanzhi held a newspaper with an expectant face.
All industries in the Chu Palace, whether domestic or foreign, will set up special literacy classes, requiring all personnel to be literate.
Of course, whether you are willing to improve after literacy depends on your pursuit.
Anyway, the higher the position, the higher the requirements for Chinese.
So Japanese people like Oda Che and Wei Chi Wanzhi, well, to be precise, they are of Japanese descent, and there is no problem at all with literacy and hyphenation.
"Instant noodles? Let me see! ”
Oda Kiri took the newspaper from the hand of Captain Chi Wanji.
