Meng Chuan didn't dare to slack off now, "Yes, Professor Wang, I will be cautious." ”

Professor Wang saw that Meng Chuan was a little nervous, and laughed, "Okay, what's so nervous about this, even if you are a powerful person, isn't it a retreat now, and the person who retreats is either a leader or an ordinary old man, just take it easy." ”

That's right, but some leaders, even if they take a back seat, are not ordinary people, but fortunately, Meng Chuan's mentality is very stable and can be downright and generous, "Well, Professor Wang, I'm not nervous." ”

After the fish soup was stewed, Professor Wang asked Meng Chuan to scoop out a pot alone and serve it with him.

Meng Chuan immediately did so, and came to a private room with Professor Wang with the fish soup.

There are two young people outside the private room, looking at the posture, most of them are guards, and they can be returned to the generals with guards after retirement, this Meng Chuan is not very easy to say, because theoretically speaking, even if the general retires, there is no guard.

Because the guard establishment can be equipped with guns, this is more difficult to do.

But after retirement, you can be matched with internal staff, to put it bluntly, it is to arrange a person similar to a nanny for you to take care of your daily life, after all, a general who can reach that level, that has really made an outstanding contribution to the motherland, with an internal nanny or something, this is normal.

Therefore, some retired generals like to use the internal service as a guard, but the grade of the internal service, which is definitely not low, whether the major general can be matched with the internal service, Meng Chuan is not easy to say, at least it has to be a lieutenant general, after this retirement, it is for the internal service.

There were two people standing at the door, which should prove that there should be at least two retired senior generals inside.

However, when it came to the matter of matching the internal staff, Meng Chuan remembered a message he had read on the Internet, saying that it was a certain Shuangjiang, the one who sang the red star to fight according to me, and his son had a bad record, but now he is in prison.

At first, his son beat someone, and then he went to the hospital as a father to visit the injured, and ended up going with several guards and internal staff.

This is too pretentious, and afterwards he said in the newspaper that in terms of his military rank, it is normal to bring a few guards and internal staff, I hope you don't think too much about it.

When Meng Chuan saw the news at that time, he really laughed.

First of all, it's your fault, the first time I heard that you have to bring guards to visit the wounded, are you going to visit the injured or scare the injured?

Besides, you are just a civilian cadre at the regular army level, and you have no military rank, and we all know that a general is a general, and there has never been such a thing as a civilian general.

Civilian cadres are civilian cadres, generals are generals, Meng Chuan is really the first time I have heard that a civilian cadre travels, and he has to bring guards and internal service.

Whether it is in line with the rules or not, this Meng Chuan doesn't care for the time being, but this attitude really makes Meng Chuan not know how to evaluate how many soldiers in the bloody battlefield can't be reported because of confidentiality, so everyone doesn't know their heroic deeds.

On the contrary, there are some civilian cadres who are often exposed to the public eye, but they can't restrain themselves, which is not only to discredit the troops, but Meng Chuan feels that this is really a shame on this military uniform.

The more Meng Chuan thought about it, the more unhappy he became, you look at Professor Wang, he is also a professional and technical officer at the regular army level, he has no internal service at all, let alone a guard, and his contribution to the country is real, after all, patents and nothing can be faked.

In particular, there are many obscure senior cadres like Professor Wang, and they have never been high-profile, compared to this, Meng Chuan thinks they are the most lovely people.

Professor Wang saw Meng Chuan holding the bowl and didn't move, so he hurriedly patted Meng Chuan, "Xiao Meng, let's go, let's go in first." ”

Meng Chuan immediately followed, "Okay." ”

After the door opened, there were five or six old people sitting inside, but they were no longer wearing military uniforms, not that they couldn't wear them, but it was not comfortable to wear military uniforms in normal times.

Meng Chuan gently put the fish soup on the table, because there were already four dishes on the table, and with this soup, it happened to be four dishes and one soup, as far as the military rank of the people here was concerned, such a reception banquet was indeed a bit shabby.

But even so, an old man still said, "Xiao Wang, four dishes and one soup, the standard of this food is not low." ”

Professor Wang hurriedly said: "Teacher, I know that you are frugal and don't want to spend more money from the state, so you have never eaten anything that exceeds the standard. This meal was specially arranged by me, four dishes and one soup, no high-end ingredients, they are all common dishes, no matter where they are placed, they are very in line with the rules. ”

When the old man saw Professor Wang say this, he remembered some interesting things from the original, "Yes, the current food conditions are better, and the four dishes and one soup are indeed in line with the rules." Xiao Wang, do you remember when I took you to do the experiment, at that time, so many of us boiled cabbage, and the salt was only sprinkled a little bit, but that's it, if you come late, you can only get some leftover soup and soak it in rice, and it was really bitter at that time. ”

Of course, Xiao Wang knew the conditions at that time, but there was no way, at that time, even the reform and opening up was not implemented, let alone a pot of vegetables, to be honest, it was really good to be able to fill your stomach with white rice and steamed buns every day.

People who have experienced that period know that the countryside is still eating big pot rice, and there is no implementation of package production to households, and every household is really poor and it is good to be able to eat stick noodles, and even some remote villages can only be hungry to eat Guanyin soil.

Guanyin soil may not have been seen by everyone, in fact, Guanyin soil is a kind of mud, which has no nutrition at all, and cannot be digested at all, and can only be used to temporarily satisfy hunger when you are hungry.

This is just to satisfy hunger, the soil does not provide any nutrients to the stomach, and when exposed to water, it swells, and can even support people to death.

Even if you don't encounter water, if you eat it for a long time, you will eventually die because a large amount of storage is difficult to metabolize in the stomach, or you will die of malnutrition, and your hands and feet will be swollen when you die, and you will die an ugly death......

In fact, at that time, everyone also knew that it was useless to eat it, but it looked like food, and that was enough.

However, the army at that time was not bad, because the army could produce some things by itself, plus state subsidies, and the soldiers were all strong laborers, so the life of the army was relatively good.

However, the tradition of thrift and thrift in the army has always been maintained by this old group of officers, especially many retired leaders, who are not very willing to eat some good meals even after they have retired.
