Guan Wenru nodded. "Yes, I added some flower tea."
"Not bad, not bad at all!" Fang Xuechang snapped out of his reverie. "By the way, what do you want to discuss with me?"
"Minister, I want to milk all the ewes and cows in the future. Besides feeding them to calves and lambs, I want to take the rest to the logistics department for processing."
"No problem, no problem at all. You can handle the cattle and sheep pens. As for these cow and sheep milk, the calves and lambs can't finish them. You can do whatever you want with them. It's all up to you."
Guan Wenru nodded, "Minister, both goat milk and cow milk are good things rich in protein. People can get nutrition from drinking them, just like eating meat. So I plan to process both goat milk and cow milk and distribute them to the soldiers."
Fang Xuechang chuckled and waved his hand, "Oh dear, how can that little bit of stuff be enough to distribute to the soldiers? You can take this stuff home and do whatever you want with it, give it to whoever you want to drink it. Don't feel guilty, no one will say anything."
“That’s enough.” Guan Wenru took out a piece of paper from her pocket, unfolded it, and placed it in front of Fang Xuechang. “Minister, please take a look at this first. This is the amount of milk I calculated.”
“We currently have 20 ewes and 5 cows. All 20 ewes are pregnant, and two ewes have given birth to lambs today. In the next couple of days, two cows will also be due to give birth.”
A ewe produces about three kilograms of milk per day, and sometimes even five or six kilograms.
A cow produces at least 20 kilograms of milk per day. Newborn calves and lambs do not require much milk, and after deducting the milk given to them, there are still at least tens of kilograms left over.
I roughly calculated that after 5 days, we will have about 90 kilograms of milk left each day.
Assuming each soldier drinks 500 ml per day, the cow and goat milk I process can supply a company of soldiers.
We can supply these soldiers by company, with each person receiving a day's worth, and they can take turns.
Fang Xuechang was stunned after reading the data written by Guan Wenru.
He was so surprised that it took him a while to find his voice, "You can...you can squeeze out so much milk every day?"
Guan Wenru nodded, "Yes, it's possible. In winter, there isn't enough fodder, so milk production will be lower. But in summer, when the cattle and sheep eat and drink well, their milk production can increase again."
So I've calculated it, and the daily milk supply is definitely enough to feed a company of soldiers.
Minister, our division has a total of 27 companies. Everyone takes turns coming, so each soldier can drink 500 milliliters of milk every month.
Furthermore, once our cattle and sheep raising techniques improve, the logistics department can purchase more ewes and cows to expand production, striving to ensure that the soldiers can drink nutritious cow and sheep milk every day and eat beef and mutton. What do you think?
Fang Xuechang was thrilled. "We can talk about expanding production later, but your idea is feasible. You can try it out first and see if you can get all the soldiers in the company to drink cow's milk or goat's milk. I'm entrusting you with this matter."
Guan Wenru wanted this sentence. With a smile, she made her request, "Minister, I would like you to issue me a document. I have no problem handling these cow and goat milk products, but I need a legitimate official document. I don't want others to have the opportunity to say that I have embezzled collective assets."
Fang Xuechang remembered Guan Wenru's family background and knew that she couldn't afford to get into trouble because of her identity.
After thinking about it, he agreed, "Okay, I'll issue you this official document."
Fang Xuechang took out paper and pen and wrote a document himself.
The document states that Guan Wenru has the right to handle cow and sheep milk in the cattle and sheep sheds.
Guan Wenru offered a timely reminder, "Minister, could you add a few more words? After supplying this cow and sheep milk to a company of soldiers, there will definitely be some left over. Could you let me handle the remaining cow and sheep milk as a reward?"
“Of course.” Fang Xuechang immediately added those words.
His main thought was that without Guan Wenru, no one would have thought of milking or processing the cow and sheep milk.
Therefore, if there is any left over after supplying the soldiers, Guan Wenru is of course entitled to dispose of it as he pleases, even if he wants to enjoy it all by himself.
After adding these words, Fang Xuechang took out his seal and stamped it.
Having successfully completed the task, Guan Wenru returned to the sheep pen with a satisfied smile to continue caring for the newborn lambs.
When it was time to leave work, she rode her horse home to her family compound.
She has to come back to milk the cows at night, so she has to ride a horse back.
As soon as she got home, she took a quick shower.
When she came out, she moved a huge pile of delicious food out of her spatial storage.
He Yanzhi isn't here tonight, so she and her grandmother can eat something different.
She took out a hamburger, original recipe chicken, fries, and a box of strawberries.
After the grandmother and grandson had eaten and drunk their fill, Guan Wenru brought out milk and coffee.
I made two lattes.
The two had just taken a sip when Zhao Mei's furious voice rang out from their doorway, "Guan Wenru, get out here right now!"
