The female voices at the Haibao base spared no effort to publicize: "We have made several thousand fish-skin coats in total, and there are more than enough for distribution. People will not have to wait or be in short supply."
However, after listening to the broadcast from the Sea Fort Base, Qiao Xuejun was also very curious: "I wonder what this fish skin coat is made of, how it is made, and how warm it is?"
Kuang Qianli was the same. When the voice came out from the radio, he put down his work, which was originally serious. "What fish skin? I want to make one and see."
The two looked at each other and started to make their own plans.
Wang Juanfeng was not interested in any of it: "The things she said are also available in the First Base. Food and drink are also provided in the First Base, and the portions are almost the same as those in the First Base."
Qiao Xuejun counted: "The first base is supplied with 400g of compressed military rations, 100g of fish meal, and 300g of potatoes every day."
These are available every day. For adults who exert a lot of physical energy and have a big appetite, it may not be enough, but for adults with average appetite, it is definitely enough, and you can even save some.
These add up to 800g, which is actually more than the 600g advertised by the Seafort on the radio.
Wang Juanfeng added: "Today the base also provided extra meals. Everyone in the cafeteria was given a bowl of pumpkin soup."
The pumpkins Qiao Xuejun gave were enough to supply the soldiers for a year. There were indeed some left over to be distributed in the canteen.
One bowl per person, it's affordable.
Although it doesn’t happen every day, it still makes people feel sweet when it happens occasionally.
The survivors certainly know which side is better.
The news on the radio continued: "There is still food, and we have no shortage of it! We have smoked and dried the fish and meat, which can be eaten for ten years! The sea blanket vegetables have also been dried, and they are also in stock for ten years! Friends who want to come, don't be afraid, just come."
Sea fish and sea vegetables, having endless food for Sea Fort during this period is a huge advantage, but such an advantage does not seem so superior in front of the First Base. After all, the First Base is also supplying sufficient food.
Qiao Xuejun was still very interested: "What is this sea blanket vegetable they are talking about?"
I've never heard of this.
Wang Juanfeng guessed: "Kelp?"
Qiao Xuejun shook her head: "I don't know. Wait, let me ask."
Qiao Xuejun applied medicine on the chilblains on her hands neatly. When she picked up the walkie-talkie to send a message, someone on the radio asked the question before her.
"Excuse me, what is this sea blanket vegetable you are talking about?" A man's voice asked curiously.
The people at the Sea Fortress heard this and smiled. "You live on land, so it's normal that you haven't seen it. This is a kind of seaweed that grows in the distant sea. During the breeding season, it will cover the sea in a large area, like a carpet. We call it a sea blanket!"
The man asked again: "Is it delicious? What does it taste like?"
"Uh... smell?" The woman on the radio hesitated, "It's a bit like..."
She hesitated for a long time before saying, "It tastes like fungus. A little crunchy."
Soon, another rebuttal was heard on the radio. It was a female voice. She said sarcastically, "What kind of fungus taste is that? It's obviously the taste of Houttuynia cordata. It tastes like fungus when you bite it, but it tastes like Houttuynia cordata."
Qiao Xuejun recognized the rebuttal voice as coming from the accountant named Xiao Fu who was rescued from the boat in the white suit.
She had also lived on the sea, so she probably knew about this sea blanket vegetable and had apparently eaten it.
I can talk to her about it some other day. If it’s nutritious, I can try to collect some and see if I can cultivate it.
Isn't it the taste of Zhe Er Gen? This is Gongzhou, a home-cooked dish of Gongzhou people.
But Xiao Fu is not from Gongzhou, so his tone showed disdain for this sea blanket dish.
This made the poster base's promoter dissatisfied, and he sneered in dissatisfaction: "At this time, you are still picky about the taste of food? It's good enough to be full."
The truth is that you shouldn't be picky about food, but people will always compare. They will compare it with what they have now.
The 600g of food in the Sea Fortress and the 800g of food in the First Base are a far cry from the quantity. Then let's compare the taste...
Xiao Fu also responded to the Sea Fortress Base: "Let me ask you, can your sea blanket vegetables taste as good as pumpkin? Can they taste as good as potatoes?"
As for fish, there is no need to compare, because the First Base also provides fish. The only difference is the sea blanket vegetable.
No one at the Sea Fort Base knew why Xiao Fu mentioned pumpkins and potatoes. They were puzzled and said, "It's a natural disaster period now. We don't have that kind of stuff."
Xiao Fu smiled: "Who said there isn't one?"
The female voice at the Sea Fortress Base became tense: "What do you mean?"
Xiao Fu's tone became teasing and playful: "So, you just got here, don't be impatient, you don't know anything yet, and you're already talking?"
Wang Juanfeng: "Who is this person? She seems to be quite protective of the First Base."
Qiao Xuejun: "... maybe she just hates the sea." So she doesn't like sea fortresses either.
·
In front of the radio station, Yuan Zhiyi, who came to help promote the recruitment information, was a little stunned.
What did this woman on the radio mean?
Potatoes? Pumpkin?
Who has potatoes and pumpkins? Did they stockpile them before the disaster? This is a rural area. Could it be that this was once a pumpkin production base, so there is a reserve?
That's about it.
Yuan Zhiyi spoke again through the radio: "No matter how much food we stockpiled before the natural disaster, there will be a day when it will run out. But as long as the ocean does not dry up, we will have meat to eat! We will have vegetables to eat! This is a continuous and reliable source of food!"
"We can't just rely on our pre-disaster supplies and live off our resources!"
Xiao Fu continued, "You are right, but who is eating up all the food? Are you talking about our potatoes and pumpkins?"
Xiao Fu added a hint of sarcasm: "So, you really don't understand anything, but you spoke first."
Yuan Zhiyi was worried. They really didn't understand these things at all. The other party was right. They just relied on experience to judge the lifestyle here. After all, they helped hundreds of people along the way. Everyone was the same! This was all based on experience!
Yuan Zhiyi put the topic aside and instead said, "We have food supplies, but what's even more special is our fish skin coats, which are a way to keep warm that you won't find anywhere else!"
