Company Commander Chen heard that Lin Yizhou was tired from driving, and said quickly: "Deputy Battalion Commander Lin, the food is eaten in our reserve team now, how about I ask the cook to cook something for you? You are tired after this trip, so I
Let them make some soup."
Lin Yi waved his hand and refused: "No need to go to such trouble, I will just finish the noodles myself, and you can each carry out your duties."
When Company Commander Chen saw Lin Yi being so thrifty, it was hard to say anything. Before he had a clear idea of Deputy Battalion Commander Lin's temperament, it was best not to flatter him. If he flattered the horse's hoof, he would be in trouble.
Several people went to do things one after another.
At this time, Lin Yi also came to the canteen. The cooking team was cleaning in the canteen. The cooking team leader looked familiar to Lin Yi, but he couldn't recognize who it was for a while and said quickly: "Comrade, haven't you eaten yet?"
Lin Yi nodded: "I'll come over and order a bowl of noodles."
There are people in the army who miss meals. Seeing this, the cooking squad leader quickly said: "Then just wait here. There is still rice left in the kitchen. I will make you some egg fried rice."
Generally speaking, if you eat without a meal, you will eat whatever is available. If there is rice, I will make rice for you. If there is vegetables, I will give you hot dishes. Although it is not rich, it is no problem to fill your stomach.
Lin Yi originally wanted to deal with it with a bowl of noodles, but now he can actually eat egg fried rice, which is quite good: "Okay, then it's troublesome."
The cooking squad leader looked at Lin Yi, who had the rank of captain, and said with a smile: "You're welcome, leader. Just don't mind if the egg fried rice is shabby."
At this moment, a captain and two corporals ran in, found a chair, sat down and shouted: "Lao Chui, hurry up and serve the food. We want to eat braised fish, please cook it quickly."
When Lin Yi heard this, he frowned and turned to look at the three of them: "It's already dinner time, so let the cooking class cook braised fish for you? How about some simple meals?"
The leading captain had never met Lin Yi, so he was a little surprised to see Lin Yi meddling in his own business.
But seeing that Lin Yi's military rank was the same as his own, he became more assertive: "The instructor of the third battalion personally ordered the meal stove. We enjoy the officer stove and have the right to order. Who are you? What rights do you have?
Question the instructor’s words?”
The cooking squad leader also quickly smoothed things over: "It's okay, I'll make a braised fish in half an hour. Do you want to eat it too? If so, I'll make one for you too."
When Lin saw the kitchen leader's compromise, Lao Gao also frowned: "Do these people often come here to have a meal? Do they have to eat fish and meat for every meal?"
The cooking squad leader couldn't afford to offend the captain, so he didn't dare to speak out. Lin understood the complaint. These people were afraid that they would continue to miss meals, so they would come over to improve the food every time.
When the captain heard Lin Yi's question, he stood up immediately with a somewhat unkind expression on his face: "Comrade, where are you from? We eat in a reasonable and legal manner, what's bothering you?"
The two corporals next to him also echoed: "That's right. If you come over to eat, just eat honestly. It doesn't matter what we do. We haven't violated any rules. What's wrong with you?"
Lin Yi knows a thing or two about the high standard of missing meals. This is due to the special policy of the reform of the third battalion into a heavy-duty synthetic battalion. Since it is a reform, there will be more people who need to work overtime on official duties and they will not be able to catch up.
It is inevitable to eat at meal time.
When the instructor saw this situation, he emphatically said, "These officers and soldiers who would rather miss a meal than miss a job cannot be allowed to suffer and suffer." Therefore, he emphasized that the meals must be nutritious.
At first, this move was well received by everyone, but as more and more people ate missing meals, and the missing meals were small and the food standards were high, both the cooking funds and the work pressure of the cooking class were reduced.
Much higher.
So a few months later, when the camp reform work was coming to an end, the instructor said that missing meals should return to normal standards.
What is the normal standard is a simple meal like shredded pork noodles or egg fried rice, which can not only satisfy you but also save money.
Of course, this regulation has not been issued as a formal document. After all, the camp reform work is only coming to an end, not over. Moreover, reducing the food standards for missing meals has to be done step by step. You cannot eat chicken, duck, fish and meat yesterday.
As a result, I could only eat rice and noodles the next day.
Therefore, this rule is basically only enforced by soldiers, while officers who know a little bit about it still continue to ask for big fish and meat. Anyway, the official rule has not been released yet. If you eat a piece of fish or a plate of meat, you can't say anything.
.
Lin Yi knew that they were taking advantage of this. Although he was studying in a military academy, he was still the deputy battalion commander and had many informants in the battalion. Therefore, he had heard about this situation for a long time. Since he had encountered it now, he could not ignore it.
If an army only relies on stipulating the bottom line to restrain its officers and soldiers, then the combat effectiveness of this army will not be strong.
An army must have morality, mission, dedication, and a higher spirit to restrain itself in order to become a strong army.
Lin Yi looked at the cooking squad leader: "Don't make braised fish, just make four bowls of fried rice with eggs. If they don't eat, they'll be hungry. I don't believe it. I can't get rid of your problem."
When the captain heard that his favorite braised fish was gone, he became angry and shouted at Lin Yi: "Who are you? Why haven't I seen you in the third camp?"
At this moment, Director Shi ran over. When Director Shi was explaining things at the gate, he saw the cadre who was leading the truck coming back to pick up supplies. He didn't take it seriously at first, but when he thought about the cadre who was leading the truck, he often went to eat by mistake.
Every meal consisted of big fish and meat. If this happened to him and Deputy Battalion Commander Lin, who only ate noodles, there might be some conflicts.
After all, the cadre leading the vehicle was transferred from the brigade and had never met Deputy Battalion Commander Lin.
The captain knew Officer Shi. When the whole battalion went out for training, Officer Shi became the leader of the camp. When he saw Officer Shi coming, he quickly said: "Old Shi, where did this captain come from? How come he has such lenient control over the company?
Even if you miss meals, you have to take care of it? You are the leader of the camp, you have to take care of it."
Officer Shi quickly stood at attention, saluted Lin Yi, and shouted loudly: "Deputy Battalion Commander!"
When the captain heard that Director Shi actually called the captain in front of him, deputy battalion commander, he was stunned: "What, deputy battalion commander? Director Shi, are you fainted? How can a captain be the deputy battalion commander?"
But when he saw Director Shi looking at him with anger in his eyes, his voice suddenly stopped, and his head racing, he suddenly thought that there was indeed a legend of a captain and deputy battalion commander in the third battalion. He didn't expect that he would actually meet him here if he recited it like this.
When he arrived, he quickly stood at attention and said: "Report to Deputy Battalion Commander Cai Yongyi, Chief of Sanying Automobile Management Section."
The two corporals were so frightened that they stood up and saluted: "Hello, deputy battalion commander."
