China, Foothill Dairy Company.

Since the outbreak of the European War, the business of various Chinese companies has begun to improve.

Chinese companies all know that once a war breaks out in Europe, it will be time for everyone to make a fortune.

Many large companies in China have developed thanks to the spring breeze of World War I.

Thanks to the large number of orders from both warring parties at that time, China's state-owned enterprises and Xingke Group simply couldn't finish them.

In addition, Wen Desi intends to support the nation.

In industry, a lot of orders were left to the private sector.

Therefore, the development of China's private enterprises during the First World War was like magic.

It is no exaggeration to describe it as mushrooming after a rain and changing with each passing day.

Foothill Dairy Company is no exception.

This private dairy company made its fortune during World War I.

At that time, the warring countries, especially the Allied Powers, had their sea lines of communication cut off.

The Eurasian Railway became their main material supply line, among which the largest The only seller is China.

After the war mobilization, the productivity of various countries was mainly tilted towards the military industry.

In addition, the large-scale mobilization caused a shortage of rural labor, resulting in a large shortage of civilian supplies and agricultural products, and they had to purchase goods from the People's Revolutionary League countries headed by China.

These products are all-encompassing, covering daily chemicals, hardware, machinery, electronics, textiles, food, medicine, etc., especially food, a daily necessity.

By the end of the war, the Allies were not only unable to supply themselves with food such as flour and rice, but they also faced insufficient production of dairy products.

Foothill Dairy was originally a small family-run factory that made its fortune after receiving an order from the Allied Powers from the National Development and Reform Commission.

Three thousand tons of dry cheese and butter are too much for such a small factory.

It is impossible to have such a large order in normal times.

Not only the Foothills Dairy Company, it should be said that the entire Chinese dairy industry entered the spring because of World War I.

Before World War I, China's dairy industry was not large in scale.

Except for a few state-owned enterprises, the others were small factories with a small number of products.

This is mainly because the eating habits of the East and the West are different.

Orientals, especially those at that time, seldom ate dairy products.

Even milk and yogurt began to be forcibly promoted in their own territory only after the Socialist Party of Science and Technology launched its army.

Not to mention cheese and butter, except for some herdsmen and shops selling Western food and snacks, which use a little.

Other times no one uses it at all.

But it is different in Western countries.

People regard cheese and butter as important components of their daily diet.

Some people even cannot skip a meal, so the demand is huge.

Of course, with the soaring development of China's economy and the dramatic improvement in people's living standards, the big foodie empire has naturally increasingly shown its true colors.

Some foods that were rarely eaten before, or were unavailable to eat, are gradually appearing on people's tables, and foods such as dairy products are no exception.

In the past two decades, China's dairy market has developed very rapidly, and its industry scale is larger than that of the previous thousands of years combined.

Manager Zifeng was patrolling the warehouse.

He randomly inspected a few boxes of cheese and nodded with satisfaction.

Then he said seriously to the warehouse manager next to him: "Lao Ke, these are what the European side wants.

Be careful to separate them from the domestic ones.

You must pay attention."

"Manager, we know that anything with protein extract and other additives cannot be sold in China."

The Ke Lejia next to him nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice.

"We must not be confused.

Now the country has very strict control over food and medicine.

If we make a mistake, we will either go mining or plant trees for the rest of our lives."

Zifeng thought of those unlucky colleagues and felt lingering fear.

Said: "The Shuanglu Dairy next door to us The factory mixed export goods with domestic sales.

As a result, the incident happened.

Boss Wang's family and all the people involved were sent to Beihai to plant trees.

Now there are not many middle- and high-level managers left in Shuanglu.

The place where Su Wu herds sheep can freeze your ears off in winter."

"Manager Zi, don't worry, our company's quality management is very strict, even stricter than the national standard.

And we are keeping an eye on it.

There will definitely be no problem," Ke Lejia said quickly.

He also knew very well that if something really went wrong, he wouldn't be able to escape either.

A large number of people went into Shuanglu next door, from the boss to the staff below.

Yes, although there are many provisions related to the death penalty in current Chinese laws, they are all considered to be the maximum sentencing.

Except for vicious crimes that are particularly bad in society, the death penalty is generally not imposed.

The most commonly used one is exile plus hard labor, but there are several additional punishments that are more severe.

For example, for criminals involved in food and drug safety, it is not enough to just go to labor reform.

The key is that before that, they must go to major cities across the country and the criminal's hometown and long-term residence, and then hold a denouncement rally in front of their peers across the country. , and then leave his name on the "pillar of shame" at the entrance of the national industry association.

This person has a bad face, and if he does this, even if he gets out in the future, he will not be able to survive in this industry, and he will not be able to hold his head high in this life.

This kind of reputation will even affect the development of future generations.

So for many people, this is something worse than death.

After the Shuanglu case, all relevant industries across the country paid attention to it.

Well, Mr.

Wen's conscience is limited to domestic products, and the management of export products is not strict.

Things such as protein extracts that are strictly prohibited in domestic sales are legal for use in export products.

Because his standard for exporting goods is: "As long as we do it more conscientiously than our foreign counterparts."

In this era, capitalists in Western countries have no bottom line.

In China, they only add some protein extracts and other things to dairy products, but others add mercury compounds to them.

Yes, it is mercury compound.

Dairy products added with this substance will not deteriorate after being stored for decades, and the color is very beautiful.

The cheese made is chewier and the cream is easier to shape.

Anyway, there are many benefits.

How could a conscientious capitalist not use such a good thing?

As for the consequences, as long as they don't eat people to death on the spot, it would be fine.

Things like sodium nitrite, Sudan red, formaldehyde, and protein albumen that were criticized in later generations are very, very legal "safe" additives and preservatives in this era.

Happiness comes from comparison, so the food exported from China is branded as "non-toxic products" and is very popular.

At this time, a staff member hurriedly ran in: "Manager, the TV reporter is here to interview."

"Ah" Zifeng was shocked and asked quickly: "We haven't had anything bad happen recently, right?"

"No."

Everyone looked at me and you, all at a loss.

"It's fine if it's not, it's fine if it's not.

I'll go take a look."

Zifeng wiped off the cold sweat and went out bravely.

Well, this time Zifeng and others had a false alarm.

This time the reporter came not because they made any mistakes, but to report them as a typical example of an export company.

"Our Shanlu Company has always been customer-oriented, and our products are made with conscience.

Our products are all safe to eat," Zifeng said with a smile on his face as he talked to the camera.

As he spoke, he picked up a piece of cheese from the product display stand and ate it.

"We ourselves eat our products.

Our company has always believed that as a food company, if we don't even eat our products, it must be substandard."

The reporter also picked up a piece of cheese and tasted it: "This tastes very good."

The surname Zi is relatively rare, so when the reporter first saw the name, he thought it was a pen name or a stage name.

Zifeng had a professional smile on his face: "Of course, our products are particularly popular in Europe and are better than what they make themselves.

It can be said that the supply exceeds demand.

And the products we provide for the country have been specially passed.

The experts’ analysis has resulted in formulas and techniques that best suit Chinese tastes.”

The reporter asked again: "Manager Zi, there is a saying circulating in society recently: It is said that we Chinese are not suitable for drinking milk, that this is lactose intolerance, and 93% of us in China have this symptom.

What do you think of this statement?”

"Who said this?"

Zifeng resisted the urge to curse and said disdainfully: "It's a shame that he can think of it so stupidly that a 93-year-old Chinese has lactose intolerance.

If that were the case, dairy companies like us would It’s time to close down shop.

This is completely baseless nonsense.

The promotion of milk among children across the country is a policy formulated by the government itself.

Do they know better than our experts?”

"Well, the people who said this seem to be experts.

They said that because Chinese people lack lactase, they are not suitable for drinking dairy products," the reporter said.

"The experts who said this must know how to eat right after they were born."

Zifeng said angrily: "These experts have probably forgotten one fact.

When they are just born from the mother's womb, Europeans eat milk, and Americans We eat milk.

Africans also eat milk.

Don’t Chinese people eat milk?

The first thing a newborn eats is not steamed buns or rice.

It’s still milk after the baby is weaned.

The best substitute is milk.

The real difference is that most Europeans and Americans have developed the habit of drinking milk throughout their lives, so lactase does not break down throughout their lives, while most Asians or Chinese do not due to their living habits.

Drinking milk throughout your life results in a temporary loss of lactase, but the loss of this enzyme is reversible.

If you drink milk, you will live, and if you don't drink milk, you will die. " "For all these years our country has been promoting nutritious meals, have you ever heard that 93% of Chinese people have problems drinking milk?"

Zifeng said indignantly.

This kind of job-related matter cannot be backed down at all, not to mention that this statement is ridiculous.

"As for the 93 figure they mentioned, I believe it is true," Zifeng said sarcastically: "But a more appropriate statement should actually be: 93 adult Chinese people do not have the habit of drinking dairy products for a long time.

So this statement The problem is that the causal relationship is reversed.

It is because Chinese people are not used to drinking milk, so they are habitually lactose intolerant, not because of lactose.

Symptoms of intolerance mean that drinking milk is not suitable.

Moreover, the lactase deficiency of most Chinese people is only temporary.

As long as they drink small amounts many times, such as only drinking 100 grams each time, and insist on drinking milk for three weeks, the lactase enzyme will be normal.

It can be recovered, and diarrhea will no longer occur after recovery.

Therefore, people all over the world are suitable for drinking milk, and saying that Chinese people are not suitable for drinking milk goes against the objective reality that milk is the first priority."

"Hey, Manager Zi, they said the baby drinks breast milk, which is different from cow's milk," the reporter continued to ask.

"Of course it's different, but why don't they check the content of human milk?

The lactose content of human milk is 78, while that of cow's milk is only about 4.

That means the lactose content of human milk is about twice that of cow's milk.

Since drinking human milk It’s okay to drink milk.”

Zifeng continued: “As for a very small number of people who are allergic to dairy products, this problem is not exclusive to Chinese people.

Westerners also have it, but this kind of people also have allergies.

Very few.”

"As for the statement that Chinese people are not accustomed to drinking milk, it is also inaccurate.

You can read the praises of dairy products by famous poets such as Li Bai and Su Dongpo.

In all the more prosperous dynasties in ancient times, the Chinese people consumed a lot of milk.

It’s only in the Qing Dynasty that life was difficult, and we Chinese gradually stopped drinking milk.

Now we have entered a prosperous era.

How can we not eat dairy products in such an era?"

Zifeng did not forget to advertise for himself in the end. .

After sending the reporters away, Zifeng said with anger still lingering: "I don't know which bastard made up this rumor.

Isn't this just ruining people's jobs?

I think it's probably the people who sell soy milk.

They must be jealous of us."

If business is good, if they have the ability, they can buy soy milk abroad."

"Manager, manager, those German guys from yesterday are here."

The secretary hurriedly ran in with an expression on his face like "A fat pig is here to break down my door today."

"Okay, I'll go meet the big customer."

Zifeng quickly stood up and went out with a rush of wind.

Half an hour later, several German guys were eating the samples and said with satisfaction: "Mr.

Zi, your company's products are very good.

We just did a sampling test and found that your company's products not only taste very authentic, but also contain nutrients such as protein."

The content is higher than that of our own products, and there are no harmful additives such as mercury compounds and sulfides.

It seems that you are very conscientious."

"Of course, of course, of course, Mr.

Will."

Zifeng said happily: "Mr.

Will, our products have always been very conscientious."

He thought to himself: the products sold to the Germans are all It has added protein, can the protein content be high?

"Well, we hope that your company's products will always maintain this level.

Let's first order 50,000 tons of dry cheese, 50,000 tons of butter, and 50,000 tons of milk powder from your company.

Can they be delivered within one year?"

Germany named Will the representative said.

"Mr.

Will, there is no problem at all.

We guarantee on-time delivery.

You can rest assured in terms of quality.

We can fully guarantee that every batch of products is of this level.

Our quality management system is very complete."

Zifengxiao You can't see the eyebrows but not the eyes.

Our additives are put in completely according to scientific standards, and there is absolutely no problem.

After the Germans left, he hurriedly made a phone call: "Hey, is this Xingke Food Equipment Company?

I am Shanlu Dairy Company, yes, Shanlu Dairy in Zhending, Hebei Province.

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

Our company wants to expand production and needs Launching 30,000 tons of milk powder production equipment and 50,000 tons of cheese and butter production equipment.

Yes, I want ready stock, the sooner the better.”

Soon he made another call: "Hey, Chen's Dairy Farm?

I'm Zifeng.

You'd better expand production quickly.

I want to increase milk supply by 500,000 tons within a year.

How much can you solve?"

After making more than a dozen calls in a row and contacting upstream and downstream manufacturers and suppliers, Zifeng put down the phone with a smile.

"Hahahaha, get rich, get rich, the fat pig came to my door today" Zifeng happily sang a ditty.

The price of dry cheese per ton in China is only 400 yuan, but when sold to Germans, the price is 10% higher than the European market price, which is 660 yuan per ton, which is more than half the domestic price.

The same goes for butter and milk powder prices.

Zifeng quickly called the Human Resources Department again: "By the way, Lao Wu, hurry up and recruit people for such a big list.

We don't have enough employees now.

We need technicians, workers, and logistics.

Well, hurry up, I know people are needed everywhere now, so let’s raise the salary a bit higher.”

This group of Germans not only bought "protein essence" dairy products, but also bought a large amount of "Sudan Red" cured meat and "Sudan Red" sausages.

"La la la, la la la, the fat pigs came to my door today.

If you ask where the fat pigs come from, they are all German."

So the senior management of the Hope Meat Company next door to the Foothill Company also sang this song.

They also took a big order today, 100,000 tons of ham, cured meat and 100,000 tons of sausages, which made the whole company smile from ear to ear.

Of course, cured meats and sausages are added with "harmless" additives such as "Sudan Red", as well as some synthetic flavors that are banned for domestic sales.

When these things are added to sausages and hams, the colors will naturally appear bright and lovely, which is appetizing, and the taste is particularly good, and the meat quality is also quite good.

The resumption of the European war has become a feast for Chinese enterprises, and all public and private enterprises have accepted orders and been reluctant to accept them.

Not only the Allies came to buy, but also the Allied Powers.

Although the Allied Powers were not cut off from sea transportation, it was obvious that once they entered the wartime system, their supplies would not be able to meet the needs.

This was also the lesson learned from World War I.

If we don't do it now Buy it quickly, because when it is really in short supply, it won’t be at this price.

However, Wen Desi did not pay attention to these things at this time.

He was currently attending a memorial service.

"General Zhao Erfeng's life was a life of struggle and a glorious life."

Wen Desi personally delivered a speech at the memorial service: "General Zhao Erfeng commanded the battle to quell the Tibetan rebellion before joining the revolution.

After he participated in the revolution, he He presided over the operation to pacify the northwest and the Anxi hometown operation, defended the country's territorial integrity, and made great contributions to the country and the people.

The death of General Zhao Erfeng is a great loss to our country and our army."

Yes, it was the memorial service for Army General Zhao Erfeng.

According to the rules of the People's Liberation Army of this plane, reaching the level of general is a lifelong career, and there is no such thing as retirement.

In other words, even if a general has retired long ago, his military rank will be retained until his death unless he is deprived of it due to a crime.

On the day when World War II broke out, Lao Zhao died in Hanking No. 1 Hospital at the age of ninety-five, which could be regarded as the end of his life.

Wen Desi then announced the Central Military Commission's resolution to move Zhao Erfeng's tomb to the People's Heroes Memorial Hall, where he will be worshiped forever.

"Mr.

Wen, there is an emergency in Paris."

After Zhao Erfeng's memorial service, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the National Intelligence Bureau simultaneously sent a piece of explosive news
