Chapter 280: You are not from Blue Water Farm, what kind of chicken soup are you drinking! (Silver Alliance 9th update)
After the three of them left the auditorium, they headed straight to the cafeteria.
Su Wenchen pushed open the cafeteria door.
The first thing that hit him was the rich smell of chicken soup. Su Wenchen was very familiar with it because he had eaten it many times. It was stewed with blue water chicken.
Zhang Qianjin took a deep breath of the delicious air of chicken soup.
"Come on, go on, hurry up and get some food. I don't know if the chicken soup is still available."
"And I knew it was your unit's blue moorhen the moment I smelled it. I've been wanting this one for a long time."
The three of them arrived late at this time, but there was also an advantage to arriving late, which was that there was not much queuing.
After all, the people in front came earlier, but there were only three windows for getting food, so they still had to line up in a long queue and wait slowly.
Su Wenchen walked to the window with the plate and found that there was only one dish of cabbage, tofu and vermicelli stew inside.
Since it is winter, there are not many other vegetables to eat at this time. Basically, it is either cabbage or potatoes. These two can be said to be the most common vegetables in this era.
"Master, do you have any chicken soup? Make me a bowl to warm myself up!"
Hearing Su Wenchen's voice.
The kitchen helper who was getting food at the window was about to decline when another chef who was guarding window number one spoke up.
"You look so young, you must be Comrade Su! Come to this window, I've reserved a special place for you!"
As he spoke, the chef at the food window No. 1 in front of Zhang Qianjin placed a large teacup on the window.
There is also an aluminum lunch box placed next to it.
Seeing this, Su Wenchen walked over and said a little embarrassedly.
"Master, you know me!"
"Why did you reserve this for me in advance? Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
Hearing this, the other party immediately smiled and said.
"My boss told me that you are the youngest one among those who came in with a name badge. It's not hard to recognize you!
"Besides, you are now a great contributor to our department. I don't understand any other profound principles."
"But I know that if I raise one more pig with the same amount of feed, I can produce an extra pound of meat, which means I can save at least two pounds of food to support those in need."
"This meat is difficult to transport, but there is definitely no problem transporting grain!"
"We've all been through hardship. Although life is better now, I still remember clearly that during a famine, an extra pound of food could save a life."
"That's not to mention the pork production increase of one-third."
"So, Comrade Su, since you've been delayed for so long, what's wrong with me leaving a bowl of chicken soup for you?"
"If anyone feels that this is unfair or has objections, please come forward and I will personally reason with them."
After hearing the noise, the people who were eating at the table next to the food window immediately laughed.
"Master Liu, please save your energy!"
"Comrade Su is very popular in our department now. Who can have any objections?"
"He's done such a great deed, so what's wrong with leaving a bowl of chicken soup? If it were me, I would have saved the chicken legs in advance."
Hearing this, the old master inside rolled his eyes.
"I want you to take command!"
"I've already kept it, but I just didn't tell you."
"Come, come, Comrade Su, take it. There's still a little soup. Have some and then come back for more!"
Unable to refuse the kind offer, Su Wenchen had no choice but to take the full aluminum lunch box from the window.
Seeing this, Zhang Qianjin, who was standing behind him, also handed over his teacup.
"Master, make me a bowl of chicken soup too!"
The other party glanced at Zhang Qianjin.
"Are you from Blue Water Farm too?"
Zhang Qianjin shook his head.
"I'm not, I'm from Qianjin Farm!"
Hearing this, the old master waved his hand.
"Why are you drinking chicken soup if it's not from Blue Water Farm? I only have cabbage, tofu and vermicelli stew. Do you want any?"
Zhang Qianjin's eyes widened when he heard this.
How can this person still lie with his eyes open!
They are treating us differently in person!
He pointed directly at the pot that the other party had just used to make chicken soup for Su Wenchen and said.
"Didn't I have a soup base when I hit you just now?"
"Just give me that point, I don't mind!"
The old master suddenly said in a bad mood.
"What good things are you thinking? I said it was reserved for Comrade Su, but his teacup was too small and it wasn't completely filled. I have to refill it for him later."
"If you wanted to drink it, why didn't you come earlier? You're the last one to come here slowly and still want to drink chicken soup?"
"There's cabbage, tofu and vermicelli stew. Do you want some?"
Zhang Qianjin took a deep breath and could only reply very firmly.
"eat!"
Su Wenchen, who had just picked up his food and was about to leave, also heard what was said and turned around.
"Master, there's no need to leave any for me! Just give them the money!"
"This teacup is enough for me."
"Also, thank you for saving me some food! It's really troublesome for you."
The old master waved his hand.
"What's there to thank me for? Besides, this is what my leader reminded me of!"
"Let's go eat!"
"The soup won't taste good if it gets cold. To be honest, Comrade Su, your farm doesn't just raise good pigs."
"The chickens are all very well raised!"
"If there weren't only ten chickens and I could only make soup to let everyone taste them, I would definitely let you try my specialty."
Su Wenchen smiled.
"Okay, I'll bring one over when I have time to let me taste your cooking."
Then he took his lunch box and found an empty seat.
The old master responded with a smile.
"Comrade Su, I will definitely make your tongue fall off with the fragrance."
As he spoke, he scraped the remaining liquid on the bottom of the pot and spoke to Zhang Qianjin and Yang Fusheng who came last.
"You two are really lucky. There are all kinds of small pieces of meat underneath."
"Bring the teacup over here, half for each of us!"
Zhang Qianjin was speechless at the master chef's obvious partiality, but he knew that he had taken advantage of Su Wenchen, otherwise he would not have been able to get the soup base.
So without saying much, he found a seat next to Su Wenchen and sat down.
Su Wenchen here was also very hungry.
He stood on the podium for almost two hours in the morning, and kept talking and answering questions. It can be said that he was already very hungry.
Looking at the bright chicken soup steaming in the enamel teacup.
Su Wenchen couldn't help but take a big bite.
After taking a mouthful of the delicious chicken soup, Su Wenchen felt comfortable all over in an instant, and the chill brought in from outside was also dispelled.
In fact, roosters are not suitable for making soup.
But Su Wenchen felt that the blue moorhen was an exception, especially the roosters that often walked around, whose muscle fibers were tighter and had lower fat content.
The chicken soup made from this blue water chicken tastes fresher and brighter than that from old hens.
When Zhang Qianjin saw Su Wenchen's expression, he couldn't help but take a sip.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
"Comfortable!"
"Brother Achen, don't mention your big blue water rooster. It tastes really good when stewed into soup!"
“No worse than an old hen!”
Su Wenchen smiled and nodded.
“That’s it!”
"And, brother Qianjin, roosters are warm in nature and good at replenishing yang energy, especially suitable for those with insufficient qi and blood and those who are afraid of cold."
"Especially in this cold winter, isn't a sip of this better than fried chicken?"
Yang Fusheng took a sip and nodded in agreement.
"It's really good. One bite makes you feel warm all over!"
"Comrade Su, I heard earlier that this rooster was purchased by your bureau from your farm?"
"Do you raise chickens on your farm?"
Hearing this, Zhang Qianjin said directly.
"What do you know? This is what raising chickens is all about, bro!"
As he said this, he stretched out his thumb to measure it.
"Do you know how much this big blue water rooster costs over here?"
"Just before I came here, I heard that the price on the black market had risen to twenty yuan per piece."
"On average, it's probably around seven or eight yuan per pound!"
This left Yang Fusheng dumbfounded, because meat costing seven or eight yuan per pound was indeed a bit beyond his concept.
"A month's salary for a chicken? Can you really sell it?"
After all, most people there only earn a dozen or twenty yuan a month.
Spending a month's salary on a chicken? He couldn't understand why. It was delicious, but there was no need to do that!
Hearing this, Zhang Qianjin smiled and shook his head.
"Ordinary workers certainly won't spend this money, but some people can afford it."
"Besides, many people on the black market are those who cannot see the light of day, and they are the ones who are ripped off."
"If it comes from the official channels in Lan City, it's not that expensive, but it's still more than three yuan per pound."
Su Wenchen nodded.
"Almost. Before the end of the year, two guesthouses in Shanghai placed purchase orders for 200 chickens with us through your company's introduction. Our farm's shipping price is two yuan."
As for the goods on the black market that Zhang Qianjin mentioned, Su Wenchen also knew that most of them came from their brigade.
Even several members of their commune were arrested for this.
But it’s not completely banned.
Even these members' families had contacted Su Wenchen at that time, but he did not intend to interfere.
Because the Blue Water Rooster was a gift from him to all the members of their brigade.
As long as they are raised normally, it doesn’t matter whether they are sold to supply and marketing cooperatives or some large factories in Lan City.
The prices are actually pretty good.
Coupled with the current collective industries of their brigade, it can be said that their living standards are at the top of the list in this era, excluding leading cadres.
But greed is something that not everyone can control.
Therefore, there are still many people who sell it privately to the black market and get a higher price.
Regarding this kind of thing, Su Wenchen felt that since you want high returns, you naturally have to bear the high risks brought by profits, and if you are caught by the commune militia, you have to admit it.
Su Wenchen has left enough gifts for Pingcun Brigade, his initial stepping stone.
There is actually nothing wrong with being rich throughout your life if you manage your business well.
Even just one blue water rooster is enough for these people to eat for a lifetime.
If the collective reputation is managed well in the future, it will bring even higher profits after the new century.
But Zhang Qianjin was a little confused.
"Brother, speaking of this, why don't you raise more chickens? They told me that they have to fight for purchase orders from you, even though you have such a big chicken farm."
"Why can't we raise more than a thousand?"
"I think you can definitely sell them even if you raise 10,000."
Su Wenchen took two mouthfuls of rice and explained directly.
"This thing also needs to be fed grain, and it can't lay eggs. From a profit point of view, it has to sell for four yuan to get the same profit as a laying hen."
"Plus, most people can't afford this stuff."
“This is really being done on a large scale.”
Su Wenchen shook his head and didn't continue.
Obviously, this was still an era that emphasized simplicity and dedication.
At a time when most people in the country don't have much meat and eggs to eat, raising this thing on a large scale is going against the times.
Su Wenchen would never do such a thing.
What he didn't say is that if this thing really starts to be farmed on a large scale, the price will not be able to maintain the current price.
Therefore, blindly expanding the scale of breeding will not bring much benefit to their farms.
However, when Zhang Qianjin saw Su Wenchen say this, his eyes lit up.
"Brother Achen, I understand. Now that you have both white pigs and moon rabbits, there's really no need to spend so much time on the chicken farm."
"So, brother, look, can we... do what I mentioned before?"
"If you have any other requests, you can ask."
After saying this, he showed an expectant expression. Zhang Qianjin felt that the Blue Water Farm now had high-quality breeds such as white pigs and Yuehua rabbits.
Then Blue Water Farm certainly doesn’t value Blue Water Chicken as much as before.
Moreover, he could tell from the fact that the other party had not expanded its breeding scale that Blue Water Chicken was not a high priority in Blue Water Farm.
But he was very jealous.
And compared to the big white pig that everyone else was looking forward to, he wanted the blue water chicken more.
Because there are too many people competing for white pigs, and all of them are the top in the country, large state-owned farms, the Construction Corps, and the animal husbandry bureaus at the provincial level or in core key cities.
Although their farm is not a small farm, it cannot represent the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
Because there are more than a dozen companies of similar size in the Shanghai Stock Exchange!
I still have to fight for it when I get back, so I might as well rely on my connections to get a steady catch of blue whistling chickens.
When Su Wenchen heard this, he also understood Zhang Qianjin's thoughts.
After thinking about it, he no longer had the same attitude towards it as before.
After all, there was only one famous blue moorhen in the past, and it was the family treasure, so how could it be spread out at will?
Now that he has the white pig and the moon rabbit, the blue moorhen is naturally not as important to him as it was at the beginning.
Of course, with his status and strong network of contacts, he no longer has to hold on to this thing as his last resort.
Because I am holding the White Pig and the Moon Rabbit in my hands, even if I lie down completely now.
It is easy to retire at the department or bureau level.
For others, it is the upper limit, but for Su Wenchen now, it is only the lowest limit.
So after hesitating for a moment, Su Wenchen spoke directly.
"How about this! Brother Qianjin, I'll put you in touch later, and you can go talk to our team!"
"To be honest, the blue water chicken breeders in our farm were all imported from the brigade."
"When the time comes, whether you introduce breeder chickens or breeding chicken technology, I have no objection."
Seeing this situation, Su Wenchen also wanted to take this opportunity to repay the favor he had done to the white pig that the farm had given them.
No matter what, they have contributed to the successful breeding of white pigs.
Hearing this, Zhang Qianjin immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Haha, brother, I'll trouble you to introduce me to me when the time comes."
Zhang Qianjin knew very well that as long as Su Wenchen had no objection, the team's side would be easy to handle.
In fact, if they hadn't been worried about Su Wenchen, they would have gone to his house long ago.
They may not even need to show up, they just need to negotiate with Lan City.
It's not just their farm. He knows that there are many farms that are eyeing Pingcun Brigade, but they are all worried about Su Wenchen behind the scenes.
