Looking at the black bread in his hand at this moment, Gao Xin felt that he had suddenly had an epiphany.

It seems that he really shouldn't blame this Wang Fu, in fact, he should have been wrong in his army building ideas before.

I thought before that I would lead a large army to conquer the grassland, the environment would be harsh, and I would have to face a fierce strongman tribe.

How do you keep morale high in the military?

Originally, he thought that it would be enough to provide the soldiers with biscuits and canned food.

But now when he heard Wang Fu say this, he suddenly felt that what he had thought about before was too good.

Biscuits and canned food are good things, but if you give them to the soldiers every day, they will get tired of eating sooner or later.

If that day comes and you can't give them something better, how do you boost their morale?

So it's true that the soldiers' meal standards should be raised, but the question is how?

Anyway, if you raise the standard of the meal to a very high height in one go, this will not only greatly increase the cost of raising your own army.

The most important thing is that it is easy to feed the appetite of these soldiers.

But if you use this kind of black bread, mixed biscuit and canned feeding, it is easier to give the soldiers a sense of anticipation.

This would also greatly reduce the cost of raising this army.

As soon as he thought of this, Gao Xin couldn't help but suddenly become enlightened.

"Haha, very good, Fat Wang, your invention of black bread is really very good."

"By the way, how much does this thing cost?"

Wang Fu was really happy to see Gao Xin at this time, and he was also relieved.

"Lord Qiqi, the cost of this kind of bread is a dime......"

Gao Xin couldn't help but gasp when he heard it, hey, this guy is really economical.

It's only a dime, that is, the price of one-tenth of a copper plate, to make such a long strip of black bread.

He estimated that this black bread could be more than a meter long, and it would be a small piece for each person.

He estimated that ten people ate such a stick, and of course it had to be accompanied by water or vegetable soup.

Otherwise, if you eat it dry, this thing really feels like it's hard to swallow, and it's very throat-pulling anyway.

"And how shelf-stable is this brown bread?"

This is where Gaoxin pays the most attention.

In the past, they went out to march and fight, and this transportation ration was the biggest headache for everyone.

You say carry flour and rice out, this thing is very expensive, and I am afraid of rain, and I am afraid of diseases, insects, snakes and ants coming to harm.

Often in the process of transportation, most of the loss will be lost, if you can lose two or three percent, it is very smooth.

Losing half of it is a common occurrence.

And when it is transported to the barracks, there must be a special fire head army to bury pots and cook for the soldiers.

Sometimes in order to give the soldiers a full meal, it takes a long time to prepare for the battle.

It's very troublesome anyway.

This is the main reason why he is so happy when he sees cookies and canned food.

Because of these two foods, it's so convenient.

No heating, no special preparation, ready to eat, and can be eaten anywhere and under any conditions.

And the most important thing is that it is shelf-stable, easy to carry, and transportable.

And what about this brown bread?

"Lord Qiqi, if this kind of black bread is kept in a dry state, there is no problem in storing it for thirty days."

"We have also tested this, and we have done it early in the rear, which is also very convenient to carry and transport."

"For example, every time we enter the battlefield, we send out a large number of scouts, and these scouts tend to be far away from the large army and act alone."

"They're going to need to carry a lot of convenience food, and I think the scouts should be equipped with biscuits, canned food, and a loaf of brown bread per person."

"This way, the scouts will be able to patrol farther and more with a larger reconnaissance range without being replenished, and they will be able to stay in the field for a longer period of time."

"As for our large troops, we provide them with brown bread as a staple food during their daily training or on the march."

"And only when they actually enter the battlefield, or after they are defeated, we give them biscuits and canned food as a reward."

"In this way, it can also effectively ensure the morale of the large army......

Wang Fatzi spoke about the characteristics of this black bread, which is very popular with joy because of its shelf-stable properties.

And after listening to Wang Fatzi's thoughts on the use of military rations, Gao Xin laughed even more happily.

It's good that this guy can think of so much.

And what he said was exactly what Gao Xin thought of before.

Indeed, if the military rations are distributed in this way, it will not only reduce the pressure on logistics.

What's more, it will greatly reduce the cost of raising his army.

He laughed and patted the fat man on the shoulder: "Okay, this proposal of yours is very good." Tomorrow I will have someone bring a reward. ”

Wang Fatzi felt a little flattered at this moment, and hurriedly responded with a smile.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

"Well, you deserve it. In addition, you are working hard, although this black bread stick is good, but I hope you will build on this and develop a few more products. ”

"They are type A, B and C, and this type C is this basic type of black bread."

"As for the B-shaped one, I want you to add some cheese and maltose to it, so that the taste of this black bread is slightly better and not so unpleasant."

"In addition to adding maltose and cottage cheese to the brown bread of A, I would like you to add some preserved fruit to make the bread sweeter."

Gao Xin already had a new idea at this time, since this black bread would be used as the staple food of the army.

On this staple food, a little article can also be made.

Although these cookies are delicious, the price is really expensive, and if they are distributed to the soldiers in large quantities, even if it is a reward, he does not want to give too much.

And because of the different feats of war, you can't all give out canned biscuits to eat, right?

Engaging in some differentiated brown bread is very good in his opinion.

Although this basic version is difficult to eat, if it is properly improved, the texture of adding some dried fruit or something will definitely be okay.

Not to mention, this Gao Xin suddenly opened his brain.

Even Wang Fu next to him was surprised by his thoughts, and it took a long time before he came to his senses.

"The lord is wise!"

As soon as he thought of Gao Xin's proposal, this Wang Fu was immediately offered by a sycophant.

Although he also knew that the cost of those brown bread would increase after adding ingredients.

But how high can it go?

He estimated that even if the black bread of type A was so large, the cost would not reach five cents.

It's not as good as a biscuit from the Huangcaotan joint venture factory, so this kind of black bread still has a lot to offer.

Not only can it supply the army, but even the gang of Iron City are bitter haha, it is also a blessing.
