The company commander and instructor, who were squatting in the crowd to eat, first showed expressions of shock on their faces, and then smiled.
Zhang Yu was the first to react: "Instructor, I didn't expect that the cooking class really did what it said!"
"What did you accomplish?" the instructor Chen Xu'an asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Zhang Yu replied with surprise on his face: "Before dinner, the old squad leader told me that today's lunch fish stew was made by Haozi himself, and Haozi also said something: I guarantee that the recruits will not want to leave after eating today's lunch.
Second company!"
"It's true!" Instructor Chen Xu'an replied with approval.
"The morale of those recruits has indeed changed a lot, and some soldiers directly said that they want to stay in the second company, just for the meals of the cooking class!"
"It's so surprising that one meal can have such a big effect. It can directly bring about such a big change in the morale of the soldiers. It is more effective than giving them several days of ideological mobilization!"
"It seems that I underestimated the role of the cooking class on the army!"
"It's an underestimate~" Company Commander Zhang Yu affirmed.
"We'll go find the old squad leader and Hao Zi together later. Don't be too frugal while the troops stay here for the next few days. As long as conditions permit, I'll make plenty of food for you."
"Let those recruits know that only by following our second company can they get such good food!"
"Within two days, let the new soldiers completely feel a sense of belonging to our second company, and let them regain their morale!"
"By then our second company will definitely become the well-deserved main company of the entire regiment!"
The instructor hesitated for a moment and reminded: "If we really feed the soldiers such good food, they will definitely have a sense of belonging to our second company! The only thing I worry about is whether the little money we have can bear such a big meal."
Consume!”
"Instructor, you still underestimate the ability of the cooking class!" Zhang Yu is still as confident as ever.
"Don't forget, in addition to the old squad leader, the cooking class also has a deputy squad leader, Hao Zi!"
"As long as Haozi is here, we don't need to spend money on the fish and meat we eat every day, and we can save a lot of money!"
"We subsidize the money we save into the cost of buying rice. The food we buy guarantees one dry meal a day, which is still no problem!"
The instructor immediately replied: "Okay, we will go to the old squad leader to make a request later and let them try it first!"
"I really want to see what kind of miracle this cooking class, which I underestimated, can create."
At five o'clock in the morning, the cooking class got up at dawn.
Smoke soon came out from the earthen stove under several large pots.
The three soldiers who had just joined the cooking class cooked porridge and boiled water in an orderly manner under the command of the old squad leader.
"Old squad leader, Brother Wang and Comrade Li Feng, I and I are going to check out the traps set in the woods last night. If we're lucky, we won't have to eat fish tonight!" Li Hao, who quickly dressed up, reported when he saw the old squad leader.
.
"Go back quickly, the troops will set off in two hours!" the old squad leader explained.
When the three men returned to the station, the entire company had already started eating breakfast and filling the kettles with boiling water in preparation for the long march ahead.
"Company commander, instructor, Haozi is back, I'm going to take a look!" From a distance, seeing the three people carrying things on their backs and hands, the old squad leader said with eyes shining.
"We'll go there with you!" Zhang Yu put down his bowls and chopsticks and ran after the old squad leader.
As he walked, he said: "Instructor, you will know in a moment that you have underestimated the cooking class and Haozi again~"
"So many~" instructor Chen Xu'an couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw the prey brought back by Li Hao.
Li Hao quickly replied: "I'm lucky today. I got three hares and five pheasants back. Our second company won't have to worry about meat for the next three days!"
"Eat pheasant for one day, eat hare for two days, and stew it with radishes and potatoes. The taste will definitely be the same..."
"Well done to you, Haozi. It's really you who brought back so many prey in one night. From now on, as long as we have you, Haozi, in our Second Company, we won't have to worry about eating meat!" Company Commander Zhang Yu praised Li Hao without hesitation as soon as he saw him.
.
"Company Commander, it's just good luck!" Li Hao replied humbly.
"This is not luck. I am also very lucky. Why can't I catch these prey?" Zhang Yu retorted.
Then he continued to praise: "Don't be humble. Hunting is not something ordinary people can do. You must have a brain."
"A brainless person, no matter how much time you give him, he will never be able to catch his prey!"
The old monitor's face was already smiling. Haozi was brought up by himself. The more capable he is, the happier he is.
With a smile on his face, he stopped and said: "Company Commander, please stop praising him. If you continue to praise him, Haozi's tail will be raised to the sky!"
The instructor made a rare joke: "It's okay to have his tail raised. As long as he can ensure that the company has meat to eat, the company commander and I will pretend we didn't see it!"
Then he stared at the old squad leader and asked: "Old squad leader, what are you thinking about? According to the food standards explained by the company commander yesterday, the comrades are guaranteed to have one dry meal a day. Is there any pressure on the cooking class? Do our companies have enough funds?
"
The old squad leader answered directly: "There is definitely pressure, but it can be overcome!"
"As for the funding, instructor, don't worry, Haozi and I have discussed it, and there won't be any pressure!"
"Don't forget that the company's food is much better than before, but the funds we spend every day are actually much less than before!"
"This is impossible!" The instructor showed an expression of disbelief.
Staring at the old squad leader, he asked: "What's going on? If you don't say anything else, if you cook one meal a day, the company will use a lot more rice than before!"
"Rice needs money to buy. This alone will increase the funding. Why will it become less and less!"
The old squad leader shook his head and explained: "Instructor, you only saw one side!"
"Since the army has the fish and other prey caught by Haozi, the soldiers have gradually eaten more oil, water and meat in their mouths every day! If they eat more oil, water and meat, their daily consumption of rice will definitely be much less!"
"If I calculated correctly, when there was no oil or water in the food, I could eat at least fifty kilograms of rice in one meal."
"Now that we have oil and water, we can't finish even 40 pounds of rice in one meal!"
"There is also vegetable money. With the prey caught by Haozi, the company's daily vegetable money has been reduced by at least half, but the food standard has not decreased, but has increased a lot!"
"Using the saved vegetable money to buy rice can not only make up for the rice consumption of one dry meal a day, but also end up with more!"
"Okay!" This result came out from the mouth of the old squad leader, and the instructor was completely convinced.
I couldn't help but sigh once again: "Company Commander, you are right, I underestimated the cooking class again!"
“The role and capabilities of the cooking class far exceed my imagination~”
