Chapter 746: The granary of the Soviet army
"It's good!" Yang Mingzhi sat up straight and said, "You can only start the meeting when the commissioner is ready." Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info The matter of the fertilizer factory, the fastest thing is to give the order to Catfish Village tomorrow, not to mention that there are more mud ponds over there, and the roads are even worse. Let's go, let's go to the warehouse and have a look, it's better to go directly to Montenegro. β
Yerentina nodded: "It's okay, but you have to be mentally prepared to walk a few kilometers of dirt roads." β
"Of course, but do the people from the municipal party committee know about this? The three of us left the division headquarters suddenly, and if there is a sudden matter, we can't find us......"
"Of course it's fine." Yelentina said dryly: "I have already told the commissioner that I will at least go to the warehouse today to inspect and write an evaluation report." I've ventilated with that guy and will try to take you with me. β
"That's good, that's good. Now it's not like ever, we have to follow the rules! β
Yerenkina was puffed: "It seems that you have listened to what the teacher told you." It's good for you and for us. β
Montenegro is just a small dirt slope, and now many caves have been excavated, and most of the precious cement is used for construction here, so the warehouse inside Montenegro can be described as dripping!
Originally, it was a mushroom cultivation area for star fruit, but since the air raids, it has completely become a food warehouse. Mushroom cultivation is completely over.
It was very close to Heitu Village, and Yang Mingzhi thought about it carefully, and he hadn't passed for a while.
Walking on the road leading to that side, at least this road is deliberately paved with a lot of debris, especially tree trunks, mixed with soot, so that the road is not particularly muddy.
The trees sprouted, and the Black Mountain was hidden by the forest, and on the slopes of the hills, a cave-like structure appeared. Yang Mingzhi counted it, there were ten! Obviously, I didn't take care of these things, and the workers expanded the cave!
It seemed that Yerenkina was very familiar with this place, and she led the group to follow.
Under the leadership of the person in charge of the warehouse in Montenegro, the door was opened, and Yang Mingzhi once again entered the interior of the warehouse. Compared to the humidity outside, it is noticeably dryer.
Because there were no electric lights and fire protection had to be considered, the lighting problem was completely solved by the old kerosene lamps with glass covers.
The light was completely fine, and Yang Mingzhi could see the scene on both sides of the cave clearly. The sacks were densely piled up here, and after a little stroking, and then looking closely at his fingers, Yang Mingzhi saw powder-like thingsβthese were whole wheat flours.
Looking at his serious appearance, Yerentina pinched her waist and said confidently: "Berekov, these are our largest granaries, and this one warehouse has ten tons of flour!" In addition to this warehouse, several others also store buckwheat flour, dried buckwheat rice, and dried soybeans. I just don't know if the flour here is still dry. β
"Of course! Comrade commissar can check as much as he can. The person in charge said confidently.
Only the facts tell the story, and in fact, whether the flour is damp or not is only a matter of touching the sack with your hands, but Yerrenkina is noticeably more careful.
The Chinese invented a tool for spot-checking grain bags, called "grain spies", which were passed into sacks and then pulled out, and how the grain was investigated. Yang Mingzhi noticed that Yelenkina was still using a means, that is, directly opening the sack to check. Unfortunately, this method can only inspect the sacks on the upper layer, where the grain is piled up on top of each other, and the condition of the lower layer cannot be known.
Following behind this woman, Yang Mingzhi observed with interest behind his back. Attentively, he found some wooden boxes, which were actually placed with some charcoal.
"Hey, hey! These people are so smart, charcoal can also be used as a desiccant! Yang Mingzhi asked, "Who came up with this idea?" β
"It's me!" Yerenkina, who was carrying her back, waved her hand.
"Unexpected! Our commissar still has knowledge of this ?! β
"Forget it, you don't have to compliment me! These charcoal are not regular desiccant, you must understand, what is our job! β
The work of the personnel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is very complicated, because it involves supervision and statistics, and there is a lot of miscellaneous knowledge to learn. At the beginning of the establishment of Soviet Russia, the worsening of the food problem almost caused the collapse of the initial Red Army, and how to obtain it was as important as preserving it.
The results of the spot check showed that the flour was very dry, and Yeretina closed the last pocket and tied it tightly with hemp rope, and breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that the charcoal I moved in has worked, and the warehouse is still dry after a few days of rain." β
"Yes, and I touched the ground too, and it was just as dry." Yevlov echoed.
Yelenkina was very satisfied, and casually asked Yang Mingzhi, but it was just a rhetorical question, which made her suspicious.
Yang Mingzhi's question is simple but very critical, the so-called topmost sack has been spot-checked, what about the bottom? ! "Moisture is most likely to accumulate at the bottom layer, and I'm worried about the condition of the flour at the bottom."
"It should be fine!?" Yerentina was in charge of the life of the troops, so she was solely responsible for these rations. Yang Mingzhi served as chief of staff, and his question was very critical.
Yang Mingzhi shrugged: "I hope the flour is in good condition, but our potatoes will not be harvested until May, and there are not many old potatoes left, and before that, these flours are related to the safety of our entire Novgomel." So shouldn't we check it out?! β
He had a point, but at the sight of the sacks, which were stacked nearly three meters high to form a wall, Yerentina was completely deflated. "Berekov, do you really think I'm Hercules? My strength is limited, and the staff here are the same, and you're going to have people move the sacks down little by little to check the bottom one?! Please, it's tiring! β
As the division commander, Yevlov was very helpless: "Maybe this is the only way." Ivan, arrange for your men to carry sacks like ladders! β
"But......" the administrator grimaced.
"No, but, do my orders! Are you worried that we have a problem with the food at the bottom?! β
Just as Yevlov was angry at the administrator, Yang Mingzhi stopped him: "Comrade division commander, let our comrades save effort." β
"But don't you think it's okay? I'm the mayor! They actually put on an embarrassed face for me openly, how can I suspect that this food is really greasy? β
Yelenkina didn't like to hear this, and in the nature of a woman, she said with a big grin: "Comrade division commander, you should not doubt our comrades!" All flour is dry when it comes in! I'm very aware of this, and it doesn't matter if it rains for just a few days. In order to cooperate with the spot checks, they have moved too much. β
"So what? Are you planning to stop checking? Yevlov raised his voice and asked, "Are we going to ignore Berekov's advice?" β
"This ...... Of course not. Yerentina became distracted, after all, the man she admired was the division commander, and his orders must be carried out!
"That's good! Ivan, even if you are tired now, it is worth it, you are in charge of the grain warehouse, if there is a problem with the food problem, I can only kill you mercilessly! β
The words were too serious, Yang Mingzhi saw several nervous administrators, rolled up his sleeves and started a new round of climbing.
In order to see the bottom noodle pockets, dozens of bags have to be removed! It's so tiring! Yang Mingzhi couldn't help but think of that plane, when he was still half an adult, he helped his father carry the sack home to the warehouse during the wheat harvest, ten sacks per acre of land, and the muscles of his two arms seemed to be torn apart after labor!
It wouldn't be good if these administrators were really tired and had muscle injuries. In a hurry, an idea flashed to me!
Yang Mingzhi waved his hand: "Wait!" I have an idea! Everyone's on hold! β
