The capital city.
General Logistics Department Warehouse.
Yuan Weiwen held a stack of documents, carefully reading their contents, and occasionally glancing up at the goods on the shelf in front of him.
As he looked at the bedding, Yuan Weiwen asked, "Have you counted the quantity of these bedding? What's the quality like?"
"Director Yuan,"
Warehouse supervisor Luo Binghui nodded and said, "These beddings were delivered three days ago by the Beijing and Tanggu clothing factories. They are all machine-woven, so the quality is excellent. I personally checked the quantity, and there are no problems. Director Yuan, you can rest assured!"
Listening to what warehouse supervisor Luo Binghui said, Yuan Weiwen still touched the bedding with some unease.
"Hmm, not bad! It's quite soft!"
Yuan Weiwen nodded and instructed, "You must ensure the quality. Our General Logistics Department is responsible for the supply of materials to the entire army of the Great Gan Kingdom, which is related to the lives of the soldiers on the front lines. These are not trivial matters. You, Luo Binghui, also came from the battlefield, so I don't need to explain these principles to you, do I?"
"Don't worry, Director Yuan, I understand!"
Luo Binghui nodded and said, "Conditions are much better now. Back in Dongning, where would we have gotten so many new cotton quilts? I experienced those harsh days in the freezing cold, so I naturally understand the importance of logistical support for the soldiers on the front lines. Please rest assured, Director Yuan, I, Luo Binghui, will definitely ensure the quality!"
"That's good!"
Yuan Weiwen nodded and continued, "His Majesty said a few days ago that he has instructed our General Logistics Department to prepare logistical supplies, as we are about to begin our Northern Expedition. The grassland bandits have bullied us for so many years; it's time for revenge! Back in Dongning, these very grassland bandits were the ones who bullied us the most; we absolutely cannot let them get away with this!"
"Although,"
Looking at Luo Binghui, Yuan Weiwen continued, "Our General Logistics Headquarters personnel cannot personally go to the battlefield to fight the enemy, but as long as we do our job well and create good logistical conditions for the soldiers on the front lines, we will definitely be able to avenge our grievances sooner!"
As they spoke, Yuan Weiwen and the others walked into the warehouse.
The entire General Logistics Department's Beijing warehouse was located near the Beijing West Railway Station and covered a very large area.
The variety of supplies inside is naturally very large.
In addition to bedding, cotton-padded clothes, military uniforms, and tents, another warehouse also stores weapons, equipment, ammunition, and other supplies.
These supplies are all in preparation for the northern expedition against the grassland bandits!
After inspecting this warehouse, Yuan Weiwen went to the adjacent food warehouse.
"Director Yuan, look,"
Entering the food warehouse, Luo Binghui smiled and said, "The conditions here are much better than when we were in Dongning. Look at the supplies in the food warehouse; those glass jars are filled with canned fruit and canned meat."
As he spoke, Luo Binghui took down a can of meat and said, "Director Yuan, the first time I ate meat back in Dongning was after we defeated the grassland bandits, when we ate the dead horses left behind by them."
"Later, we ate prey hunted by hunting teams. Look at us now, it's all canned meat, the conditions are much better than before."
"And these too, pork floss and fish floss, these can be stored for a while."
"Enough to feed the soldiers on the front lines for one or two months."
"Besides canned goods and meat floss, there are also some millet and rice, which are reserved as backup supplies. When the big battle begins, we will make some fried rice to keep on hand."
Listening to Luo Binghui's introduction, Yuan Weiwen took a deep breath, feeling somewhat envious.
Think back to all those years of fighting in the north and south; the conditions for them to even get enough to eat were extremely difficult. But now it's different. After establishing the capital in the capital, His Majesty has become particularly attentive to these matters.
It's not just the Tanggu Food Factory and Tanggu Canned Food Factory; many food and canned food factories have been set up even in Beijing.
These factories, in addition to supplying various military units, also sell their products on the market.
New types of canned meat, canned fruit, and meat floss products caused a sensation in the market as soon as they were launched.
And you know what? It worked really well!
Yuan Weiwen has tried all of these new products, and they taste quite good!
The conditions are indeed much better than before!
Luo Binghui,
Looking at Luo Binghui, Yuan Weiwen instructed, "These things are all food, so the quality must be strictly controlled. Especially if they've been stored for too long, and they become spoiled or taste bad, you must deal with them immediately. Never give them to the soldiers on the front lines; poor-quality food can cause diarrhea, which will affect their combat effectiveness!"
"Don't worry, Director Yuan!"
Luo Binghui replied solemnly, "The management of food warehouses is even stricter. The shelf life of all food is strictly controlled. No more than one-third of the total shelf life will be stored in the warehouse. Once it reaches the critical period, it will be removed and sold on the market."
"The food in our food warehouse isn't just for storage; it might not be eaten immediately after being delivered to the soldiers on the front lines. Therefore, the storage time will be strictly controlled. Our warehouse won't make a mistake in this regard!"
Hearing Luo Binghui's words, Yuan Weiwen nodded heavily and said, "That's good! That's good!"
The food warehouse was very large, and Yuan Weiwen inspected it quite carefully.
I even picked one of each product, opened it, and tried it.
Fortunately, the quality of these products is indeed very good.
After leaving the food warehouse, Yuan Weiwen and the others went to the weapons warehouse.
In fact, Yuan Weiwen was quite at ease with the weapons depot.
After all, weapons management and control have always been very strict, especially back in Dongning when the Thunderclap Thunder had just been developed and its storage was even more stringent.
Modern hand grenades have much better storage conditions.
Modern rifles, machine guns, and artillery are even easier to store.
The only potentially problematic items are grenades, bullets, and shells.
However, it's much better than the time of thunderclaps and muzzle-loading muskets!
We don't have many weapons and equipment stored at present.
After all, all units have already been re-equipped, so there won't be too much weaponry and equipment stored in the warehouse.
The most common items stored there were bullets and ammunition.
The management is also very strict.
After leaving the weapons depot, Yuan Weiwen took a deep breath and looked at Luo Binghui, saying, "Our General Logistics Department has made ample preparations during this period. However, we must continue our efforts and be prepared at all times for the Northern Expedition against the grassland bandits!"
"As long as His Majesty gives the order, we must ensure that logistics and supplies do not hinder the frontline troops!"
"If there are any problems, report them immediately! Got it?"
Hearing Yuan Weiwen's instructions, Luo Binghui quickly nodded and replied, "Director Yuan, rest assured, I will definitely keep my mission in mind!"
