Chapter 35:
After discovering that the seasoning package was instant noodles, Zhao Xiaoyan's mood dropped significantly. She and Wei Dalei obviously did not think of some key issues at this moment.
But Chen Mu was ecstatic.
"Is this useful?"
Zhao Xiaoyan felt a little sorry that she had led everyone astray at first, but when she saw Chen Mu's happy face, she was a little confused.
"Not only is it useful, it solves almost all problems at once."
"Ah? Instant noodles?" Wei Dalei was puzzled.
"Instant noodles are not the key." Chen Mu, who was so excited at this time, patted Wei Dalei on the shoulder and said with a smile, "But the seasoning bag inside is the most important thing." "The seasoning bag
... That’s right!”
The two of them understood instantly.
Zhao Xiaoyan is not stupid either, but because he almost never eats instant noodles, he doesn't care much about it, while Wei Dalei is simply too lazy to use his brain.
But after Chen Mu reminded him, no matter how stupid he was, he woke up.
"Seasoning packets can replace salt." Zhao Xiaoyan was also a little excited.
When there is no hope for real salt, instant noodle seasoning packets are simply a perfect substitute. More importantly, seasoning powder is not food after all, and the consumption is very small. Just a small packet can feed everyone for a long time.
"Not only that."
Chen Mu slowly approached the carton of instant noodles. Although he was in ecstasy, he still did not relax his vigilance about the surroundings. He said as he walked: "
This brand of instant noodles usually comes with three packets of seasonings:
"One packet of powder
"A pack of oil packs, the main ingredients are palm oil, beef sauce, and chili, etc.; "
Finally, there are vegetable packs, which contain various dehydrated vegetables. , including cabbage, carrots, green onions, eggs, beef cubes..."
Before Chen Mu could finish speaking, Wei Dalei jumped up with a cry: "Fuck, boss, how do you know so clearly?
"Isn't there a list of ingredients written on the packaging bag? " "
Chen Mu pointed to a pack of instant noodles scattered outside.
Wei Dalei: "..."
Zhao Xiaoyan also came back to her senses at this time and said excitedly: "This... this is too rich. I said instant noodles are very healthy. I Mom just won’t let me eat it. "
Perhaps thinking of his family, Zhao Xiaoyan was obviously a little depressed when he said this, but since the end of the world, the class has discussed the topic of family and parents many times. Expectation, depression, despair, all kinds of
emotions have been tasted, It has to be said that human beings are more adaptable than they thought.
What's more,
before there is definite news, it is unknown whether a loved one will definitely be killed.
Chen Mu does not have this problem, he has to talk about the person closest to him. , it might be Wei Dalei, and this silly big guy is by his side now, so
he doesn't need to experience that kind of sadness. But he can also understand the emotions of Zhao Xiaoyan and others, so he quickly took over the conversation and said with a smile:
"I don't know whether you are healthy or not. But for us, there is a huge advantage. Vegetables are easily perishable, but if they are dehydrated and then sealed, they will last for several years as long as they are stored properly. "
But, it says the shelf life is six months. " "Zhao Xiaoyan pointed to a line of small words printed on the corner of the carton.
"The shelf life of food is mandatory for enterprises by law, but in fact, the storage time of many things can far exceed this period.
"Besides, even if it's only six months, it's actually completely enough. We can't always live this kind of life of hiding in Tibet."
Chen Mu has often discussed this issue with Tang Jing during this time, and the two sides have very consistent opinions. , that is, humans will eventually return to the top of the food chain and regain control of the world.
certainly.
There is no need to talk about these things with Zhao Xiaoyan at the moment.
We walked a little further inside.
Chen Mu discovered that the room contained not only instant noodles, but also some rice noodles, seaweed buns for soup, etc., which were basically instant foods.
But most of them are piled high.
Only those instant noodles are placed at the bottom, and they are probably used most frequently.
Probably because of the long-term storage of instant noodles, this room was filled with this special smell. No wonder Zhao Xiaoyan could smell it from so far away.
"Let me try to see if I can carry it."
Near the door, there was a box of opened cartons. The standard 24-bag package seemed to have had four or five packages removed.
The portion of instant noodles is not very heavy.
Wei Dalei obviously felt that he could carry a pack.
However, before he could take action, Chen Mu stopped him.
"We don't want flour cakes, just seasoning packets."
"Yes, flour cakes don't last long, are heavy, and there are many substitutes. The price/performance ratio is too low. Seasoning packets are the key." Zhao Xiaoyan agreed.
Seasoning packets that can handle oil, salt, and vegetables at the same time are naturally not comparable to those noodles. Although Chen Mu also felt that it was a pity. If they had such a box of instant noodles in the storage room, they would not need to pay for food for at least a year or two. Worried.
"Then what should we do, go back with only three packets of seasoning packets?" Wei Dalei was always too lazy to think.
"Let's open a few more packages of instant noodles, take out all the seasoning packets inside, and then drag them back with an empty bag." Chen Mu thought for a while and gave a suggestion.
If Tang Jing were here, she might be able to come up with a better plan, but at the moment, Chen Mu could only think of this solution.
"If you drag it all the way back, the bag will be worn out." Zhao Xiaoyan said worriedly.
"It doesn't matter, I will repair it along the way." Chen Mu had obviously thought about this problem for a long time.
"I'll get a bag first and try it out."
Wei Dalei strode into the carton.
The weight of a pack of instant noodles itself is acceptable, but those who have bought a whole box must know that the instant noodles inside are stacked vertically in rows and are stuck a bit tightly. It would be very difficult to take them out, even with Wei Dalei's strength. It’s strenuous.
Chen Mu walked to the side of the cardboard box and stretched out his hands to stick to it.
next moment.
The carton was cracked.
This seam is not long, but it eases the tightening very well.
"It's moving!"
Wei Dalei shouted excitedly, and then he heard the sound of plastic bags rubbing against each other.
Not long after, a complete bag of instant noodles was pulled out.
The two followed the same pattern and took out three bags of instant noodles one after another.
"Take a rest."
Chen Mu immediately shouted to stop.
"I'm not tired at all." Wei Dalei clenched his fists, as if he had endless energy to vent.
"If you're not tired, I'm tired."
The crack on the carton was already as long as several people. For Chen Mu, this consumption may not be too much, and saying he is tired is a bit exaggerated, but in line with safety first 1. The principle of ensuring that the "golden bell" is opened as quickly as possible at any time, Chen Mu still asked Wei Dalei to stop.
