Chapter 956: It seems that you are still quite sensitive, dear brother (please subscribe and vote)
, "Brothers, don't eat like this. Drink some porridge or soup while you eat."
Cheng Bao hurriedly went and brought a bowl of steaming mutton soup to each of the two young masters.
Just enjoy the mutton soup and eat this compressed dry food while bragging and spanking.
Cheng Chumo swallowed the last mouthful of compressed dry food in his hand, took a big mouthful of steaming mutton soup, and then smacked his mouth.
"Hey, let me tell you, Lao San, I just ate so much of this stuff, and I feel at least 50% full."
Cheng Chubi turned his head and looked at his eldest brother who looked surprised, and his second brother who was sipping mutton soup beside him.
"The piece just now weighs about half a catty, but you and the second brother are both capable of lifting a cauldron. Naturally, it won't be enough to eat that amount."
Cheng Chubi had already finished cutting the compressed dry food and let them carefully wrap and package it in oil paper.
I also picked up a piece and gnawed it, and picked up a piece with the other hand and gave it to my elder brother.
"How about you get another piece?"
Cheng Chumo took it in his hand and couldn't help but hesitate a little. He asked Cheng Chuliang, the second child, who continued to drink soup.
"Come on, how about we share a piece of the second dick? This thing is quite fragrant, but I feel tired after eating too much."
"Okay, give me half a dollar, I think it should be about the same."
Cheng Chubi only tasted a few mouthfuls, and the taste was pretty good, but it should have been pressed a little too tightly.
I'm afraid it will become harder after it cools down, but this is not a problem. At least the compressed dry food is nutritious.
The most important thing is that it can relieve hunger and provide enough energy to the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.
The two brothers each made a piece and a half, and after drinking a bowl of mutton soup, they no longer had the desire to continue eating.
Cheng Chuliang touched his belly, looked at the compressed dry food being packaged over there, and couldn't help but ask.
"Brother Xian, what the hell did you put in this thing? Isn't it too irritating?"
Cheng Chubi couldn't explain to these two brothers that a piece of compressed dry food contained 500 kcal in 100 grams.
The calories added by eating two bowls of rice plus some vegetables and meat are 100 to 150 kilocalories higher than usual.
However, this did not prevent him from using simpler language to explain why this compressed dry food makes one feel full easily and resist hunger.
"It's not just the ingredients I poured into it before, it's mainly high-calorie things like nuts, fats, and sugar.
In addition, you didn’t see just now that I asked them to use a stone roller to press them repeatedly, just to make them tighter."
“And a half-pound package of dry food is enough for an adult to consume for half a day.
One pound can completely guarantee that you won’t be hungry or lose energy for the whole day.”
"But the cost won't be low, right?" The eldest brother Cheng Chumo touched his belly, although he didn't feel as full as usual when eating.
But he still felt that he no longer felt hungry.
Hearing what his eldest brother said, Cheng Chubi immediately became happy.
"Brother, you are very thoughtful, but it is not my younger brother's turn to solve the problem of price.
Anyway, as long as I can make this kind of military ration that is both hungry and light and easy to carry.
Uncle Li Ji should be able to get his half-year salary."
After hearing this, the second brother slapped his thigh and said happily.
"Yes, third brother, you are right. What's wrong with it being more expensive? The important thing is that we can do it. This is serious."
After bragging and spanking with his two brothers, Cheng Chubi continued to direct the Cheng family to continue making compressed dry food.
After all three flavors were made, Cheng Chubi asked his two brothers to taste them separately.
The eldest brother Cheng Chumo likes the one with milk flavor, while the second brother prefers the original compressed dry food made for the first time.
As for the second paragraph, it was appreciated by Deng Chengxing.
#####
Time flew by and at noon on the third day, I received news from Brother Chu Bi that the compressed military rations had been prepared.
Li Ke and Fang Jun, who were playing cards at Cheng University, hurriedly left the school and headed towards Lu Guogong's mansion.
When they arrived at Duke Lu's Mansion, they saw Brother Chu Bi commanding the servants of the Cheng Mansion to load the car with great loyalty.
Li Ke had just jumped off his mount, and he was looking at the oil paper bags being loaded onto the car in surprise.
An oil paper bag was about the same size as a small wooden box. Li Ke picked up one and it was quite substantial.
When he got closer and smelled it, he smelled the aroma of oil. Li Ke looked at the three large cars full and couldn't help but say with joy.
"Brother Chu Bi, your methods are too amazing, aren't you? You have done so much in such a short period of time?"
Cheng Chubi smiled at the two brothers and said very confidently.
"This is not a technical job. It's just made according to the recipe. It can be easily made in large quantities."
"Besides, if you want to test the effect of this compressed dry food, how can you test it if you don't do more?"
Cheng Chubi turned around and asked Deng Chengxin to bring an opened package and took out a piece from it.
He took off the oil paper on the outside and broke it open with all his strength, giving Fang Jun and Li Ke one piece each.
Li Ke took a bite, his eyes lit up, and he immediately made a suggestion.
"Hey, this stuff tastes good, but it's just scratchy and feels dry..."
"That's normal. In order to ensure their convenience, their moisture content is very low."
Li Ke nodded, chewing carefully and smelling the piece of compressed dry food.
"Hey, I actually smell the fragrance of milk. Brother Chu Bi, is there any milk in here?"
After hearing this, Cheng Chubi raised his thumbs towards the old driver and laughed.
"It seems that Brother Xian, you are still quite sensitive to the smell of milk, unlike young people like Brother Jun."
Fang Jun, who took the water bag handed to him by his personal attendant and drank water while happily eating compressed dry food, couldn't help but be stunned.
"Brother Chu Bi, what do you mean by this?"
"I am praising you, my dear brother, for being a young man." Cheng Chubi said kindly to Fang Jun.
Li Ke looked at Brother Chu Bi with a dark look on his face, always feeling like he was being targeted by Brother Chu Bi, an old driver who liked to talk dirty.
"Okay, dear brothers, the car has been loaded. Let's finish our meal quickly so we can set off.
Please, Your Majesty and Li Bingbu, two elders, take a good look at the compressed dry food made by someone Cheng."
The three thousand kilograms of dry food were unloaded from the cart and carried straight to the palace by the soldiers.
At this moment, Zhao Kun happened to walk out of the Manna Hall. The cold wind that came in his face made the head guard who was almost sweating from the heat in the Manna Hall shiver.
After glancing at the guards, who were all performing their duties and showing no signs of laziness, Zhao Kun was about to get back behind the curtain.
