Chapter 681 The approaching Spring Festival

"..."

be honest.

Although Xu Yun could not fully understand Li Jue's thoughts at this time.

But relying on later generations' partial understanding of the background of this period, he could more or less guess something.

He glanced at Li Jue, thought for a moment, and asked:

"Director, in that case...what are the base's plans for this year?"

"This year..."

Li Jue glanced at Xu Yun, put up three wowotou, and explained:

"The leadership plan is to allocate three steamed buns to each person, plus half a kilogram of meat - maybe braised beef or mutton, a whole fish of about one kilogram, plus two boxes of canned beef for every seven people."

"How should I put it...it's almost doubled from last year's quota."

Mentioned earlier.

Last year, the per capita quota at the base was one steamed bun, half a fish and three ounces of meat. Each group of seven people in the workshop received a box of canned beef.

This year's distribution method includes two more steamed buns, two more taels of meat, and the rest are basically the direct quantity

This kind of quota is considered a big loss for the leadership of the base. It can be said that the entire 221 base has never conducted activities of this scale since the establishment of the mine.

However, Xu Yun was silent for a moment, then shook his head slightly and raised objections:

"Director, I think since the base wants to have a lively Spring Festival, let's just bite the bullet and create a really lively scene."

"If you just add two steamed buns and two pieces of meat for each person, then to put it bluntly, you are just adding some food. It always feels a bit awkward, don't you think?"

Li Jue was suddenly startled and said in surprise:

"No, Xiao Xu, do you think this is not enough?"

Good guy.

Li Jue was originally worried that Xu Yun would dislike the arrangement of the base as being a bit extravagant, but he didn't expect that this guy actually said something unpleasant?

To know.

Although on the surface each person seems to have only two taels of meat and half a fish, in the face of the base of more than 17,000 people (including the 5,000 new employees), this is really not a small amount.

17000x0.2=3400, which means that the amount of meat added by so many people alone is more than 3,000 kilograms...

Not to mention that this part of the meat is still the weight of the clean meat after bone removal. When converted into live cattle, sheep, pigs and other poultry, the actual slaughter volume is even higher.

Not long ago, the base leaders held a vote on this. Just the addition of two ounces of meat aroused the concerns and objections of many comrades.

If Li Jue hadn't used Xu Yun's killer weapon at that time and said something like "Advisor Xu hasn't had a good meal since he arrived at the base", maybe the final vote would have ended with a majority of opponents.

Who would have thought that Xu Yun actually disliked the fact that the meat was not enough to eat, and judging from his appearance, he probably wanted to add more than just a little bit...

"..."

When Li Jue saw this, he couldn't help but have some bad premonitions in his heart. His long-term experience in dealing with Xu Yun told him that Xu Yun was about to make big news again:

"Xiao Xu, what do you think is the appropriate quota for each person?"

Xu Yun raised his eyes and looked at Li Jue, and a word came out of his mouth that made him raise his eyebrows:

"No limit."

Then he didn't wait for Li Jue to react.

Xu Yun sat up a little straighter and explained with some excitement:

"Director, I think our previous thinking was too limited - in fact, we don't need to separate steamed buns, fish, and meat."

"The winter wheat over there in Mao Xiong can be ground into flour to make dumpling wrappers. There are wild vegetables and mustard greens on our grassland. If we chop the mutton and beef into fillings, we can make a dumpling meal during the Spring Festival."

"The base can even ask for some cabbage from the Northeast - everyone is in short supply of meat these days, but there is still a lot of Nagada cabbage in the Northeast."

"We can make mustard greens and mutton dumplings, wild vegetable and beef dumplings, and if we can get pork, we can also make pork and cabbage dumplings..."

Say the last thing.

Xu Yun couldn't help but lick the corner of his mouth.

The Jinyintan grassland to which the 221 base belongs is extremely vast, and native wild vegetables can be found in many places.

Some of these wild vegetables are as bitter as elm leaves, but some taste quite good.

Before Xu Yun appeared, one of the tasks of the base's sideline team was to go out every day to find these wild vegetables, so wild vegetables were considered a scarce commodity for a long time.

but.....

With the delivery of black soldier fly larvae and winter wheat, the base's daily needs were suddenly abundant.

Now the base sideline team has not gone out to harvest wild vegetables for a long time, so if they really search carefully, they can probably find a lot of delicious wild vegetables.

These wild vegetables, combined with other vegetables available in the base, can completely serve as the fillings needed for dumplings.

At the same time, wheat flour is also one of the classic raw materials for dumpling wrappers, paired with mutton, beef and pork...

There is no problem with a delicious dumpling at least in terms of craftsmanship.

Looking at Xu Yun, whose eyes were shining a little, Li Jue swallowed with some difficulty:

"Unlimited...dumplings?"

"Xiao Xu, you fucking dare to think..."

Being able to make a [technical leader] like Li Jue spout dirty words shows how powerful Xu Yun's idea is.

Then Li Jue started to hold his fingers in front of Xu Yun and made calculations on the spot:

"Let's not talk about the dumpling wrappers needed for dumplings. There will definitely be no problem in supplying the winter wheat in the base. The worst we can do is let those donkeys grind them for 22 hours a day."

"The vegetarian stuffing is not a big problem. Most of the winter wheat we got from doing business with Mao Xiong this time was given to comrades in the Northeast Industrial Zone. It is very simple to use this favor to get a few tons of cabbage from them."

"But as for the minced meat...Xiao Xu, you want the base to bleed."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Hear what Li Jue said.

Lao Guo on the side couldn't help but nodded slightly.

Just as Li Jue said.

Dumpling wrappers and vegetarian fillings are not difficult to make. The winter wheat from Mao Xiong has a lot of gluten and is a standard all-purpose flour, so it is very suitable for making dumplings.

Vegetarian stuffing is a little more troublesome, but overall the problem is not big - this time the rabbits and the bears agreed to trade 100,000 tons of winter wheat, and the 221 base allocated about more than 1,000 tons, and at least half of the rest was

It was supplied to the industrial zone in the northeast.

Now that winter is approaching, this batch of food can be said to be truly life-saving supplies.

In this case, let the factories in the Northeast evenly produce some cabbage and leeks.... Obviously there is no difficulty.

But apart from the dumpling wrapper and vegetarian filling, the remaining meat filling is very troublesome.

Students who have eaten dumplings should all know this.

Generally speaking.

The wrapper of a dumpling is about 3 grams, and the filling of meat dumplings is 12 to 15 grams. One pound of meat filling can make about 40 dumplings.

But these days, an adult—especially an employee working in a base, really wants to eat dumplings with open belly... There is really no problem in eating sixty dumplings for one person.

In other words.

If you want to make dumplings, then the meat quota per person will be directly increased from 5 taels to about 1.5 kilograms.

There are more than 17,000 employees in the entire base. If the regular quota is changed to dumplings, there will be extra...

Seventeen thousand kilograms of meat!

Bang bang bang——

Li Jue subconsciously covered his heart, and suddenly felt that his heart hurt...

Looking at Li Jue with a "sad" look on his face, Xu Yun still insisted on his own thoughts:

"Isn't it right, factory director, do you feel distressed because of the extra meat?"

"This is the Spring Festival that we only celebrate once a year. It's a rare opportunity. What's wrong with the base cutting more meat?"

"Not to mention that you don't know the key research tasks that the base will face after the year. At that time, nuclear weapons research and development will enter the most critical juncture. The Spring Festival is also a good opportunity to boost morale."

Xu Yun asked himself that he was not the kind of hands-off shopkeeper who didn't know the price of firewood, rice, oil and salt. From the time he traveled through the base to now, he was still very familiar with the lack of supplies in the base.

but.....

As he said, the mood of the base's employees is not particularly stable today.

His original idea was to engage in some extracurricular activities so that everyone could relax mentally to a certain extent. However, due to time constraints, the arrangement of extracurricular activities had to be cut in half.

Under such circumstances, the mental state of more than 80% of the employees in the base is not very healthy, and they urgently need an occasion to release their psychological pressure.

Again.

There are more than 10,000 employees in the entire base, but not all of them have Lao Guo's experience of returning to China and their awareness of serving the country.

Many employees in the base are actually ordinary people, and their consciousness is only slightly higher than ordinary people - many of them even don't know that they are engaged in nuclear weapons research and development projects.

Therefore, how to guide their psychological pressure is actually a very important matter for the base leadership.

Not to mention that after the year, the entire base will enter the final sprint stage. By then, overtime and other things will probably be the norm. If the employees’ inner anger is not released before then, it will easily lead to some problems.

group events.

Xu Yun heard this knowledge from Gu Qunqing in real life, and it can be regarded as a small direction of business management - although it is estimated that not many people remember that Xu Yun is a company CEO who sells cockroach medicine...

On this basis.

That meal on New Year's Eve... was obviously a very good choice.

Although due to the coldness of the plateau, it is basically impossible for the base to hold a Spring Festival Gala with tens of thousands of people on New Year's Eve, but it is not difficult to make some space to cook a big pot of rice.

This kind of collective self-help method is the best way that Xu Yun can think of to soothe the employees' psychology. It is a dual relaxation on both the psychological and physical levels.

His eyes returned to reality.

Hearing Xu Yun's words, Li Jue's eyes couldn't help but twitch a few times.

As an old instructor who has participated in frontline battles, why doesn't he know that this is an excellent opportunity for collective relaxation?

But again, the cost of doing this is still too high.

But if he rejects Xu Yun's plan, Li Jue always feels that something is not right...

Then Li Jue thought for a moment and turned to look at his assistant Zhou Cai:

"Xiao Zhou, how are the meat reserves in our base currently?"

After hearing this, Zhou Cai quickly took out a small notebook from his briefcase and flipped through a few pages skillfully:

"Reporting to the factory director, as of yesterday morning, the base livestock team had a total of 12 cattle, 46 sheep and 5 pigs."

"There are also 973 native donkeys, and 200 chickens and ducks."

Li Jue nodded slightly.

Jinyintan...or Xihai Province has a very high altitude, and high-altitude areas are not suitable for raising pigs.

At present, the pigs raised on the plateau are basically Tibetan pigs or cooperative pigs. Although they have strong cold resistance and can tolerate rough feeding, their growth rate is extremely slow - they can only grow to 20-30 kilograms in one year, and they can only grow to 20-30 kilograms in 2-3 years.

It can only grow to 35 to 40 kilograms.

Therefore, the base animal husbandry team currently only raises a few pigs to prepare for special circumstances, and the rest are basically cattle and sheep.

"12 cows and 46 sheep..."

Li Jue quickly calculated it in his mind:

"The cattle and sheep in our base are relatively small. A cow without bones can produce about 400 kilograms of meat, and a sheep can produce about 60 kilograms."

"Seventeen thousand kilograms of meat requires 40 cows, or...oh my god..."

Li Jue just ran through the numbers briefly and a bunch of goosebumps appeared on his hands.

Good guy.....

If Xu Yun's idea is really followed, then there won't be enough cattle and sheep in the entire base to feed one meal.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In other words, the base must obtain another batch of beef and mutton from the outside world, and the pressure is overwhelming...

Think of this.

Li Jue decided to try his best to persuade Xu Yun to give up this idea. Even if it didn't work, he should reduce the amount of meat Xu Yun needed:

"Xiao Xu, I can generally understand your psychology, but the amount of meat required to supply dumplings for the entire base is too much."

"You have also heard the data Xiao Zhou reported just now. Our entire base only has 12 cows so far."

"Based on the amount of meat produced by one cow, which is 400 kilograms, these 12 cows can produce about 5,000 kilograms of meat at most, which is not even one-third of your needs..."

Xu Yun glanced at him and said:

"Director, since we don't have enough cattle in our base, we can allocate them from outside."

"Adjustment?"

A wry smile appeared at the corner of Li Jue's mouth, and he sighed secretly in his heart. After all, Xu Yun had never experienced a hard life:

"Xiao Xu, it is easy to say the words "allocation", but it is not so simple to operate."

"If what you want is a few tons of cabbage or a few tons of corn and potatoes, I can promise you that I can transfer them in full."

"But beef and mutton...Xiao Xu, the New Year's Eve is coming soon. Our 221 base is not the only one that needs meat. The number of domestic cattle and sheep is also quite limited. Where can I get so much meat...

..."

Looking at Li Jue who was pouring out his bitter grief.

Xu Yun's face did not show a look of being convinced, but he gave Li Jue a deep look:

"Director, I have a question to ask you first."

"what is the problem?"

"If I can get enough beef and mutton from abroad...can the organization ensure that they will be distributed to our base?"

........

Note:

Today is the 59th anniversary of the atomic bombing. I was supposed to go to Atomic City to participate in a Communist Youth League event, but unfortunately I am still not well enough to go...
