Seeing that there was still so much meat left, the canteen's cooking squad leader felt a little embarrassed. He looked at Jiang Yan and the others and said:
"Sister-in-law, last time I gave you several hundred kilograms of fish, and today I gave you a pig. Isn't that too much?"
"It's okay." Jiang Yan smiled gently and glanced at Lu Yunsheng. "The political commissar and several battalion commanders also have to eat. If anything happens in the future, please take care of me."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yunsheng behind Jiang Yan nodded slightly, and the class monitor no longer refused.
"Okay, absolutely no problem, thank you sister-in-law."
"Then you guys go ahead and get busy, we're going to the cafeteria to eat."
Jiang Yan took Lu Yunsheng to the cafeteria, while He Hongxiu and others went home carrying pork and pickled salted fish.
In the cafeteria.
Jiang Yan was stunned for a moment as she looked at the food that had just been served. She looked at Lu Yunsheng and whispered, "This is too bland. You guys still have to train regularly, how can you handle this?"
"Given the intensity of military training, we should eat a combination of meat and vegetables and have a balanced diet. If we continue like this for a long time, our bodies will collapse."
What Jiang Yan didn't know was that many soldiers joined the army just for this meal. Back home, they couldn't even get such food.
Besides, the military district commander was not stupid. With the food so poor, the training intensity had naturally been adjusted. It was not like the later military forces that Jiang Yan knew.
Lu Yunsheng was also helpless.
"We can't help it. This is the same situation across the country. However, it's okay for the soldiers to go up the mountain occasionally to have a bite to eat."
Jiang Yan picked up the chopsticks and tasted it. There was just a little bit of oil.
"We still have to find a way to start a sideline business. There is green grass all year round in the south, so we can produce our own feed."
"I remember there is a kind of pig abroad called the Landrace pig. It can be slaughtered in about half a year and can grow to 400 to 500 kilograms. It has great economic value."
Lu Yunsheng didn't know much about agriculture. After hearing what Jiang Yan said, he was a little surprised that his wife actually knew so much. He had even heard her talk about aquaculture last time.
But compared to marine farming, Lu Yunsheng is more concerned about pig farming because the group has its own pig house.
But the food is limited and we can’t raise many of them, so we usually don’t want to eat them.
Regiment commander Lu Shouhai and political commissar Sheng Pinghua sat down at the table behind Jiang Yan at some point and ate.
Hearing the couple talking about pig farming, the two of them couldn't help but raise their heads, look slightly towards Jiang Yan, and listen attentively.
For the current troops, apart from daily training, eating is a big issue, and the two men have their hair turned white with worry.
Lu Yunsheng saw the reactions of Lu Shouhai and Sheng Pinghua. Seeing that Jiang Yan didn't seem to be talking nonsense, he became curious and asked in a low voice, "Wife, is this Landrace pig easy to raise?"
Jiang Yan replied: "It's not difficult. Farmers usually raise black pigs. The same method is used to raise Landrace pigs. Pay attention to the ventilation and dryness of the pig house. The survival rate is still very high."
Hearing Jiang Yan say this, Lu Yunsheng knew that she had some understanding of it, but when he thought of the food for the troops, he sighed again.
"In fact, the army has always wanted to raise pigs on a large scale, but there is not enough food for the people, so how can there be more to feed the livestock?"
Jiang Yan also understood.
This era was indeed unimaginably poor, and later generations even said on the Internet that the current country was the poorest in the world.
She thought for a moment and said, "I definitely can't afford to feed them with grain, but there's so much straw burned in rural areas every year that we can use it to feed pigs."
Upon hearing this, the regiment commander and political commissar next to them were not excited, but shook their heads regretfully.
Lu Yunsheng smiled and said, "Wife, pigs don't like to eat straw."
Jiang Yan nodded, thinking about the information she had learned in her previous life, and said, "Pigs don't like to eat straw because it's too hard and hard to digest, right?"
"Yeah, that's right."
"But this thing is indeed edible for pigs. We just need to use fermentation technology to turn hard straw into nutritious and easy-to-digest food, and the pigs will naturally eat it."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Yunsheng and the regiment commander and political commissar behind Jiang Yan were stunned. It sounded like raising Long White pigs was very feasible!
The regiment commander and the political commissar turned around and winked at Lu Yunsheng, asking him to quickly inquire about the fermentation technology.
But Lu Yunsheng didn't want to ask anymore.
It was originally just a casual chat between the couple, and they accidentally talked about pig farming. However, pig farming is such a big thing, and Lu Yunsheng was worried that if it went wrong, his wife would be held responsible.
Lu Yunsheng suddenly stopped asking such a crucial question.
The two leaders were very anxious.
The regiment commander picked up his bowl and sat next to Lu Yunsheng, and the political commissar sat on his other side.
Jiang Yan looked at Sheng Pinghua and the other person who appeared in front of her in confusion.
When did these two come out, and how much did they listen to?
She had specifically chosen a quiet corner, and there was clearly no one else around, otherwise she would not have said all this to Lu Yunsheng.
She doesn't want to raise pigs.
The team leader chuckled and went straight to the point, but the matter hadn't been finalized yet, so his voice was not loud and only the four of them could hear it.
"From what Comrade Jiang Yan said, you have research on pig farming?"
Jiang Yan didn't answer and glanced at Lu Yunsheng opposite her.
Lu Yunsheng shrugged. He had no idea that his wife was so capable. It seemed that she really knew some fermentation technology.
Seeing that Jiang Yan was worried, Sheng Pinghua whispered, "Just tell us and we'll listen to it. Just treat it as a joke."
But Jiang Yan was still very hesitant. With the original owner's level of knowledge, it seemed that she shouldn't know these things.
The inspections are strict these days, she won't be arrested as a spy, right?
She looked at Lu Yunsheng for help, and Lu Yunsheng said, "Wife, just say whatever you want, just treat it as a private conversation."
Jiang Yan opened her mouth and said, "I don't want to raise pigs. They are too smelly."
