Chapter 460 Packed Up
It is not easy to catch up with the leading troops in the grassland.
First, everyone is trying their best to catch up. If you want to catch up, you have to be faster than everyone else.
Second, the grassland environment is complex, with many swamps and rivers. It is difficult to walk every day, let alone rush!
In addition to selecting strong and capable warriors with spare strength, the supplies to be transported must also be carefully selected.
Foods such as halved egg shaqima are good, but if you send too little, it will not have any effect. If you prepare too much, you may not be able to deliver it.
Chocolate, which has a large calorie content and a small volume, meets the transportation needs. This is why Mr. Hu suddenly mentioned this matter.
A pack of chocolate is 50g, and 500 packs of chocolate weigh exactly 50 kilograms. Sending a team of several people should be able to deliver it.
However, the role that these 500 packs of chocolate can play after being delivered is huge.
Not only Jiang Wanwan understood the importance of this matter, but even Xu Wenzhao heard what Hu Gong said.
He finished the remaining rice in two mouthfuls, wiped the grease on his mouth with his hand, and said, "I will go to select the delivery team now!"
Hu Gong nodded, and after Xu Wenzhao left, he continued to think about the list.
Fearing that Hu Gong was not familiar with the supermarket goods, Jiang Wanwan quickly mentioned the last kind of food and asked, "There are also apples. Do you want to take them?"
Apples? Hu Gong pondered, looking a little hesitant.
"Take it! It's okay to take less, everyone hasn't tasted apples yet!" Jiang Wanwan begged.
I took out an apple last night, and everyone had a bite, so there weren't many people to share!
Finally, Mr. Hu nodded and agreed, "Then we can share one between the two of us and eat it today, so it won't be considered as adding weight!"
"Okay!" Jiang Wanwan nodded happily, half an apple for each person is fine!
There are a total of 229 apples, with a total weight of 114.5 kilograms, which is worth the national destiny factor.
In this way, the food is considered to be over, and weapons are agreed not to be purchased this time.
Next, Jiang Wanwan mentioned medicines and asked, "Anti-inflammatory drugs, antipyretic drugs, and Yunnan Baiyao, we should prepare some, right?"
Mr. Hu nodded, obviously having already made up his mind, and said while writing.
"We will bring 50 boxes of anti-inflammatory drugs, 10 packs of antipyretic drugs, 50 bottles of Yunnan Baiyao, and prepare the same amount to send to the vanguard troops together with chocolate!"
Medicines are much lighter than food. All of them together are estimated to be only three or five kilograms.
And the price is not expensive. 100 boxes of anti-inflammatory drugs cost 5,000 national fortune factors, 20 packets of antipyretic drugs cost 2,000 national fortune factors, and 100 bottles of Yunnan Baiyao cost 10,000 national fortune factors.
Jiang Wanwan nodded to indicate that she had taken note, and then asked about keeping warm.
"It's cold in the grassland at night. Although we have cotton clothes, it's better to prepare some strong liquor!"
"Well, in addition to ourselves, it's better to send some to the vanguard!" Hu Gong said thoughtfully.
Seeing Hu Gong agreed, Jiang Wanwan immediately thought about the specific amount to bring.
The Red Army still had to spend three cold nights in the grassland, and a small bottle of Erhuotou for one night should be enough.
However, although a small bottle of Erhuotou is only 100g, the glass bottle containing the liquor is not light, and the overall weight is probably more than doubled.
In order to lose weight, is it just a matter of bringing less?
That's right!
Jiang Wanwan's eyes lit up, and she immediately came up with an idea. She could replace these glass bottles!
She immediately looked at Mr. Hu who was also weighing the quantity, and said excitedly: "Mr. Hu, I suddenly thought of a way to reduce the weight of these liquors."
"Didn't I boil a lot of water for everyone last night and this morning? That just happened to empty a lot of mineral water bottles. We can pour the liquor into the mineral water bottles, so that we can reduce most of the weight and carry more liquor."
Mr. Hu was stunned, then immediately nodded and praised: "It's a good idea, then give every two people a mineral water bottle of liquor, and prepare another 300 mineral water bottles of liquor to send to the vanguard troops!"
A mineral water bottle is 550ml, which is enough for two people for three nights, which is not much different from what Jiang Wanwan expected.
However, when it comes to the mineral water bottle, she remembered something and asked Mr. Hu: "Do you want to take some mineral water?"
There is no shortage of water in the area where dense grasslands can grow.
But most water sources are poisonous. Just contact with the wound can cause the wound to be infected, which is obviously not suitable for drinking.
The only drinkable water sources in the grassland are rainwater and clear river water.
But when these two water sources can be encountered depends on God's will. Sometimes
, you can encounter two or three clear rivers in a morning, and sometimes you can encounter rain the next night.
But sometimes, you can't see any drinkable water after walking for a day and a night, and everyone can only bear it under the scorching sun.
When they have no choice, they even drink human urine and horse urine.
Facing Jiang Wanwan's inquiry, Mr. Hu hesitated for a moment, then nodded and replied: "Take it, one bottle for every two people!"
In fact, many times, these Red Army soldiers are not short of water, but lack tools to hold water.
What often happens is that when everyone encounters a river, they drink until their stomachs are bulging and then walk, hoping to last longer.
After all, they really have very few tools like water bags.
As for tea mugs, they leak too easily. Often, after filling a tea mug, only the bottom is left after walking for ten minutes.
Mineral water bottles, which are both light and leak-proof water-holding tools, obviously won Mr. Hu's heart.
In this way, the new shopping list was written.
At this moment, Jiang Wanwan and most of the Red Army soldiers had finished breakfast and could start to work.
Jiang Wanwan took the new list from Hu Gong and took out the required goods according to the contents written on it.
Then, she and Hu Gong, who had stood up, greeted the Red Army soldiers who had finished eating and were busy pouring the second pot of soup from the small glass bottle into the empty mineral water bottle.
When all 529 mineral water bottles were filled, all the Red Army soldiers had finished breakfast and were ready.
Everyone lined up and took their own share of supplies according to the quantity given by Mr. Hu.
