Chapter 654: The enviable navy

At dinner, Igos finally understood what Lieutenant Nimitz meant by "the food is very good."

This is more than "not bad", it is simply a luxury!

The kitchen of the Twin Towers unexpectedly provided a full 8 dishes to the officers and soldiers of the ship, and it was still in the form of a buffet, which anyone could use at will.

Igos saw the shiny sauteed lamb chops, the soft and delicious char-grilled red rhinoceros steak, the yellow and salty geese with crispy skin, and so on, all available by sea, land, and air.

The ingredients in every dish are not cheap.

Take lamb chops as an example. Due to the small land and large population on Odin Island, there is not enough land to breed bighorn sheep, and mutton must be imported from the mainland more than 2,000 kilometers.

In addition, during long-distance transportation, special cold storage is required for storage, and the transportation cost is high. Therefore, the price of lamb chops is as high as 80 copper nar/kg in the department store of Hai Chao Ling. A dozen tooth sacrifices.

It’s like the Twin Towers. It’s like no money. Igors saw several cooks with his own eyes, lifting out several metal vats, and the lamb chops in it were piled up high.

Dinner even offers a special dish-stewed swordfish.

The swordfish is a large marine fish of the awakening level. It is known for its fast speed. It has a body length of more than 15 meters and can manipulate water currents to easily set off large waves of 6 or 7 height. It is quite powerful.

Generally, fishing boats have nothing to do with it, and they may be damaged by sailfish. Only a fast fishing boat made of all steel can successfully hunt it.

Such ingredients are definitely high-end ingredients. The prices in department stores start at 2 or 3 silver nars/kg. Ordinary households simply cannot afford them. At most, they will buy a little bit of it when they encounter holiday discounts.

In the canteen of this warship, even the lowest-level sailors can enjoy a piece of fragrant swordfish, and the quota for officers is even higher.

The treatment of the navy really deserves its reputation...

Igos took a bite of the sautéed lamb chops, feeling the greasy fat and sighing.

He has a hunch that during this trip to the mainland, his weight is very likely to soar by several kilograms.

Even Lieutenant Andras, who was quite critical of the Navy, put aside his prejudices at this time, and concentrated on enjoying this sumptuous dinner.

What surprised Igos even more was that halfway through the dinner, the chef handed out 2 bottles of canned food to each person, one bottle of canned blue frost fruit, the other bottle of canned white peaches, and a bag of buns.

At the end of the month of wind-tracing, there are no fresh fruits on the market. Anyone who wants to taste the taste of fruits can only choose from canned fruits produced by Hai Chao Ling.

The refined frosting sugar is added to the can, which makes it taste better than fresh fruit, and the canned water is as sweet as honey.

Now in another world, the turtles have invented a widely recognized "standard" way of eating:

That is, first eat the fruit with a knife and fork, and then eat a few buns with sweet canned water.

This is why the chef gave everyone a bag of buns.

With the gold-letter sign of the Haichao Chamber of Commerce and superb marketing methods, canned fruit immediately became a noble food as soon as it was born.

Naturally, its price will not be low, generally more than 2 silver nars/can, and this is the result of a one-off price reduction after the canned production has greatly increased.

Two years ago, when the canned fruit was first put on the market, this rare item caused a frenzy, and the price once reached an astonishing 10 silver nars.

This expensive thing, with Igos's not low income, can buy a can of at most half a month and share it with the whole family.

However, the big navy dog ​​has 2 cans per capita. How can this not shock him inexplicably?

Lieutenant Andras held a heavy can with a rather complicated expression.

He sighed secretly and murmured in a low voice:

"Damn... why does our army only have one canister? It's so unfair..."

It seems that because Igos is a raw face, the chef also explained it specifically:

"Sir, according to the "nutrition" theory established by Lord Lord, balanced nutrition is very important for health. It is recommended to consume a certain amount of fruit every day, so each of us has a quota of 2 cans of canned fruit every day."

"You can eat them in the canteen, or take them back to the cabin as a supper... As far as I know, most people choose the latter, especially after working on a warship for a day and enjoying a sweet meal before going to sleep. The quality of sleep seems to be better for the canned food."

"Uh, but there is one thing to be aware of. In the stormy season, the sea is very windy. Please be sure to store the can in the storage box built into the wall to prevent it from falling and hurting people... In addition, please put the Take the empty can to the restaurant, we need to recycle it..."

Igos held the can and the bun in his arms, and suddenly there was a strong urge to apply to join the Navy.

Hey, the standard of living of naval soldiers is comparable to that of aristocrats... It's so enviable...

...

However, six hours later, in the middle of the night, Igos understood why the Navy's treatment was so good.

The reason is simple, the navy is more bitter.

"Woo..."

Even if he stayed in the cabin, Iggos could faintly hear the howling of the wind.

"Boom...boom..."

The waves slapped the hull violently, making continuous muffled noises, making Igos nervous to hear, and all his sleepiness disappeared.

What's worse is the bumps.

Igos felt as if he was in a blender, stunned and dizzy.

There is no doubt that all this shows that a small storm blew up in this sea area.

Had it not been for he had been living in Haichao for more than two years, had more experience in sailing out to sea, and his body was more adaptable, I am afraid he would have vomited at this moment.

He lay on the bed, fastened himself tightly with a seat belt so as not to be thrown to the floor, listening to the footsteps coming from outside the cabin, and the faintly audible shouts, he couldn't help feeling deeply.

"Navy... actually it's not easy..." Lieutenant Andras, lying on the upper bunk, said quietly.

"Yes." Igos agreed. "In this case, I can't walk smoothly, but the navy can still keep on duty. It's amazing..."

"The Twin Towers has a larger tonnage, a more reasonable design of the ship, and greater stability in strong winds and waves." Lieutenant Andras added, "If it is another ship, the turbulence will definitely be more violent."

"During the storm season last year, I went to sea on a 1,500-ton trimaran warship, and unfortunately I encountered a small storm that time... I saw with my own eyes a sailor was thrown off and hit the bulkhead with his head broken. Blood flow, but the others are still continuing..."

"Bang! Bang!"

At this time, the cabin door was slapped vigorously twice, and then the small window on the cabin door was opened, and an anxious voice rang:

"Two gentlemen, the Twin Towers has encountered an emergency, please put on your clothes immediately, stand by in the cabin, and be ready for evacuation at any time..."
