It's time for lunch. A vegetable garden has been planned on the island in advance, so the vegetables can be self-sufficient. Fresh meat is mainly air-shipped, and all kinds of seafood are contracted by Fat Tiger. There is so much that we can't finish it.
"Xiaoyu, what kind of dish is this!"
Lin Shuqin picked up a piece of fried meat patty and asked.
"Croquettes, also known as Japanese croquettes, are made by deep-frying minced meat and onions mixed with mashed potatoes. They taste pretty good. Mom, you should try some."
This dish was originally a Doki-goku cuisine, but was later changed into Japanese-style Western food by the chef himself. It appears more frequently in Japanese dramas and anime.
Xia Yu knew this dish, but he had never eaten it. It happened that there were 6 Japanese members recruited into the foreign maid group. One of them was called Mai Ikuta, who was very good at cooking Japanese home-cooked meals. So he assigned her to the kitchen, and this croquette was created.
As for why there are 6 people, it is because in the World War II classic tank set rewarded by the system, two Japanese vehicles were selected, namely the Type 94 light armored vehicle and the Type 97 medium tank.
Both of these tanks were captured in China and are also pioneering equipment of our army's tank units, so they are very representative.
The Type 94 has a crew of 2, and the Type 97 has a crew of 4, which adds up to 6 people. The same is true for the magnesium and ? series tanks, but the osmium series has the most overcrowding.
"Well, it tastes good, but what kind of meat is in it?"
Lin Shuqin took a bite and asked, she couldn't quite tell the difference.
"pork!"
Xia Yu sounded a little guilty, because this pork was a little special. He cultivated it in the artificial meat workshop of the honeycomb base using the stem cells of black pigs.
“It tastes better than the ones bought at the market, but a little worse than the ones raised at the base.”
Lin Shuqin gave a fair evaluation, and Lao Xia also agreed. Without the metaphysical blessing of spiritual energy, the artificial meat cultivated by science and technology is slightly inferior, but it can still surpass ordinary pork.
Xia Yu was very satisfied with this. The efforts of the past two days were not in vain. If this technology was introduced to the outside world, wouldn't it be better than those fake meats made from soybeans?
Animal protein and plant protein may seem similar, but their nutritional content is very different. As omnivores, humans need to consume both types of protein.
Among concept stocks, the artificial meat sector has been very popular in the past two years, mainly based on plant protein.
Laboratory-grade animal-based artificial meat is very expensive. With current technology, a piece of hamburger meat can cost as little as around US$2,000, while the artificial meat workshop at the Hive Base only costs RMB 100 per kilogram.
Xia Yu also couldn't help but sigh that Umbrella Corporation is professional in biological research, but it is used in the wrong place. Isn't artificial meat better than the T virus?
Having mastered the mature technology in this area, he is confident that he can create a new cake to reduce human demand for meat, while traditional animal husbandry is likely to disappear in the next century, just like the fuel vehicles of this era.
It’s exciting to think about it, but making money is no longer the pursuit of life. We should participate in and lead the development of the times and the progress of mankind.
According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory, Xia Yu has reached the fifth level - the need for self-realization.
Talented people emerge in every generation. As a wealthy man, shouldn't he be the leader of this century?
"Mom, I have another good idea."
Xia Yu put down his chopsticks and said, Lin Shuqin felt his eyes light up.
"What's the idea?"
"It's about eating, and it might be a little unconventional."
It is not a possibility, but a certainty. Animal protein artificial meat will definitely cause controversy, but only with controversy can there be heat. Xia Yu will grasp the scale well.
After dinner, he took his parents on foot to the Industrial Museum next to the main castle to view the many collections he had made since he acquired the system.
"Dad, Mom, look, the first floor is full of tanks I collected. They're all antiques from World War II. Every one of them is in great condition. Do you want to pick one out and take it out for a few rounds?"
Xia Yu opened his arms and welcomed the two to his tank world.
"Are they, like your cars, industrial collections of great economic value?"
After a series of shocks, it cannot be denied that these tanks look quite visually impactful, but compared with the islands and infrastructure worth more than $1 billion, they are nothing. Just take it calmly.
"Yes, when mass-produced industrial products are combined with a specific historical status and a certain degree of scarcity, their commercial value will be greatly increased, but I mainly collect them because I like them."
Which man doesn't like tanks? If you still don't like them, let beautiful girls drive them.
"Is it up there too?"
Old Xia just looked at it from the outside. The museum has three floors in total, and the ceiling height of each floor is very high.
PS: It’s past midnight, I’ll update another 3k chapter tomorrow.
