Chapter 220 Moldy Grain 【Addition】

As for Zhao Yuan, it is impossible to get the care of Qiu Xiaochong. After all, in Heishui City, everyone knows the demographic structure of the Qiu family. Although Zhao Yuan joined the reserve army with Qiu Xiaochong, everyone thinks that Zhao Yuan It was just a distant relative of the Qiu family, and Mr. Qiu didn't deliberately explain it, so he was directly thrown into the worst kitchen in the reserve.

Of course, the kitchen also has a regular staff, but that is not the case for reservists like Zhao Yuan who do odd jobs. Those with staff are mostly chefs like Jin Erpang.In fact, the establishment of the kitchen is in short supply, and even some chefs are not necessarily regular military establishments.

If it wasn't for the fear of being accused of being a deserter, Zhao Yuan would have already escaped.

Zhao Yuan originally wanted to notify the three shareholders of Liaoyuan Commercial Bank, but the kitchen was busy all day long and the news was blocked, so there was no way to notify them.In the end, Zhao Yuan could only rely on Qiu Xiaochong, but unfortunately, even though they were in the same barracks, Zhao Yuan couldn't see Qiu Xiaochong at all.

Now, Zhao Yuan's daily life is two points and one line, from the kitchen to the barracks.

Several nights, Zhao Yuan wanted to leave the barracks and go to the Liaoyuan Commercial Bank to inform the three shareholders. What made Zhao Yuan vomit blood was that although the barracks did not have the image of a soldier, in order not to affect the cooking, the time was militarized. For management, someone will check the shop every morning and evening, it is impossible for Zhao Yuan to leave and return without anyone noticing.

On the fifth day, Zhao Yuan completely gave up, and he thought of a problem.

The three shareholders are not familiar with the military. If they want to make friends with the military's dignitaries, even if it is to spend money, it will definitely take a process. This process may take a few days or a few months.

With the prudent character of the three shareholders, it may take about three months at the earliest to get through the relationship.

After figuring it out, Zhao Yuan began to think about other channels.

Zhao Yuan naturally didn't want to stay in the smoky kitchen for three months.

If it really doesn't work, then the only thing to do is to violate military discipline and be dismissed from the military...

……

In five days, Zhao Yuan was completely familiar with the kitchen process, and the chef in the kitchen also had a good impression of this dexterous newcomer, from deliberately making things difficult at the beginning to slowly accepting it.

On the sixth day, preparing for lunch, Zhao Yuan and Tang Han chose vegetables together. While chatting with each other, someone called the people in the kitchen to move things, and all the people in the kitchen moved out to the warehouse behind the kitchen. People were unloading goods from bantam horses, and the goods piled up in the open space were like mountains, including flour and rice, cooking oil, seasoning salt, etc., everything that one expects to find.

Zhao Yuan saw a familiar face.

Captain Han.

"Hi Brother Fat!" Zhao Yuan glanced around but didn't see Qiu Xiaochong, so he hurried to Captain Han to say hello.

"Yo, Zhao Yuan, I haven't seen it for a few days, you've grown a lot!" Captain Han punched Zhao Yuan in the chest, with a look of admiration on his face.Back then, when Zhao Yuan was standing beside Qiu Xiaochong, Captain Han always thought that Zhao Yuan was weak, but after looking at it now, he realized that Zhao Yuan was actually very strong.

"Where's Qiu Xiaochong?" Zhao Yuan asked hastily.

"He... Hehe... He has been promoted... Hey, this is a secret and cannot be said."

"Oh..." Zhao Yuan suddenly looked disappointed.

"By the way, Zhao Yuan, for Xiao Chong's sake, I have some good news for you." Captain Han looked mysterious.

"Ok?"

"I heard that the empire is recruiting regular troops. This is a good opportunity. You have to perform well."

"When?"

"Just about this month, don't be lazy."

"Yeah, thank you fat brother, thank you fat brother." Zhao Yuan thanked repeatedly, took out some imperial coins and stuffed them in Captain Han's trouser pocket.

"Oh...how is this so embarrassing..."

Fatty Han smiled, and secretly praised the young man for being sensible.

After moving some supplies to the warehouse, a group of people returned to the kitchen. Zhao Yuan found that several chefs gathered at a small table, muttering and discussing.No need to guess, Zhao Yuan knew that they were sharing the spoils.

Losing public interest and benefiting private interests seems to be a chain of interests, and Captain Han is only a link in it.

Zhao Yuan could only frown. He knew that this was a huge chain of interests. Moreover, Captain Han was just the tip of the iceberg. If he wanted to uncover this shady scene, he would definitely not be able to do it alone, because everyone has become accustomed to it. .

Things must rot first and then worms grow.

Suddenly, Zhao Yuan felt a sense of crisis.

When the famine spread last year, Zhao Yuan felt that the Great Qin Empire was a bit powerless, and when he got to the army, he felt more and more that under the majestic army, there was a thick shady curtain.

Zhao Yuan can definitely believe that behind Captain Han, there is a huge black hand manipulating everything.

Who is it?

Sledgehammer God?

Subconsciously, Zhao Yuan shook his head. Although he didn't know that the Sledgehammer God was a human being, he had seen the Black-faced God, and he had reached the level of a Black-faced God. He would definitely not shake the foundation of the empire for some petty gains. .

At dinner that day, Zhao Yuan found that the rice used was mature rice, many of which had become moldy, and were still yellow and black after washing many times.

Zhao Yuan felt the anger of those soldiers, and he realized that a wave of anger was growing and spreading.

Something is going to happen!

To Zhao Yuan's surprise, although the soldiers were extremely angry, no one caused trouble, and everyone had an expression of daring to speak out. ,

For two days in a row, Zhao Yuan found that although the soldiers were angry, they seemed to accept the reality and still ate in silence. However, Zhao Yuan found that the leftovers increased significantly, and a lot of food was poured into the slop tank without being touched at all.

This is a silent protest.

However, no one took this kind of protest to heart, and the chefs were still cooking in the kitchen in full swing.

During this kind of protest, Zhao Yuan found that the spirits of the soldiers who ate poor-quality food became obviously depressed. While eating, Zhao Yuan saw at least 50 people frequently go to the toilet.

It was only on the third day that the spoiled and inferior food was consumed, the meals returned to normal, and the anger of the soldiers eased a lot. At this time, Zhao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. After all, no one is willing to face the cold s face.

What puzzled Zhao Yuan was that those cooks seemed to be used to it and didn't take it seriously. Zhao Yuan knew that similar things had happened before. Yu You soldiers were directly dismissed from the army and sent back to their hometowns.

There is no doubt that being expelled from the army and sent back to his hometown is a shame for soldiers, and it even has a bearing on the honor and prosperity of the family.

No wonder the soldiers swallowed their anger.

In the next few days, a few people who looked like military officers came to the kitchen to check, took some samples, and then nothing happened.

It was noon of another day, when Zhao Yuan was racking his brains to find a way to leave the kitchen, a short soldier walked into the kitchen alone.Everyone in the kitchen seemed to know him and saluted him.

The short soldier waved his hand, indicating that everyone was busy with his own work, and then he checked carefully in the kitchen, picking up food with chopsticks to taste a little from time to time.

The short soldier didn't seem to find the problem, and left with a stern expression.

After the soldier left, the chef in the kitchen breathed a sigh of relief.

"Uncle Jin, who is he?"

"General Cui, a civilian general in charge of logistics." Jin Xiaopang said absently.

"Did you come to check the moldy food last time?" Zhao Yuan asked.

"Don't talk nonsense, what moldy food! That eye of yours sees moldy food?!"

"..."

"Be careful what you say in the future." Jin Xiaopang said with an extremely stern expression.

"Yes Yes."

That day, after dinner, all the people in the kitchen were summoned to the conference room for a meeting, and the convener was General Na Cui.During the meeting, General Cui mentioned the issue of moldy food many times, but none of the chefs stood up to speak, but some chefs argued.

After the meeting, some people were left behind, most of them were newcomers, among them were Zhao Yuan and Tang Han.
