Just then, Becca Reyes who was thinking of leaving heard the words "backpack." For the first time she realized that the stones they packed in their backpacks had not yet been thrown away. She hesitated unexpectedly whether to dispose of the backpack first. But before she could make a decision, Flossie Wright had already passed her, heading towards the cooking class, without any thought of the backpack at all. Thinking it over, Becca Reyes did not linger either and nonchalantly followed Flossie’s pace.
Listening to Flossie Wright, Glenn Hutchinson looked down at the two backpacks scattered on the ground, bulging with an unknown number of stones. He couldn’t help but find it somewhat amusing.
He had come to help with the training without compensation, and now he would have to clean up afterward.
Indeed, discipline is indispensable.

When they were returning, it was just on time. Flossie Wright had just finished washing her face and brushing her teeth. The sound of striking the iron basin resonated once again disorderly, causing absolutely piercing noise in the quiet cooking class.
Yvonne Watson seemed to have gotten used to not seeing Flossie Wright and Becca Reyes when she woke up. Now, she was scared of everyone in the dormitory and did not dare to keep Flossie waiting. She rushed to freshen up and hastily ran towards the procurement truck, as if she was in a hurry to put out a fire.
Flossie Wright, who was on her way to the procurement truck, had only leisurely walked half the distance when she saw a figure rushing by her side. On closer look, she realized it was Yvonne Watson. She raised her eyebrows in confusion, finding Yvonne’s enthusiasm a little strange.
The morning cooking class was always busy, preparing breakfast for nearly five hundred people. Just relying on their dozen people, they had to sweat profusely each day. For novices like Flossie Wright and Becca Reyes, it was not too bad. At most, there were some mundane tasks. For experts like them, sometimes they even had to multi-task by keeping an eye on four or five pots. There was no rest in the kitchen.
Moreover, following their leader’s repeated suggestions, the base had once again initiated assistance in the kitchen. Each day two strong and sturdy soldiers came to help in the kitchen. All the heavy work could be given to them. Today was the first day of implementation. Two soldiers had just arrived at the cooking class and were directed to carry various things. While they toiled hard, the pressure in the kitchen was significantly reduced.
This time, Flossie Wright and Yvonne Watson coming back from procurement did not need to unload the goods themselves. Neal Thompson had a soldier help with the unloading and then had them go to the kitchen. He handed them two knives and two basins of meat—
Chop it into mince.
"This is even more tiring..."
Looking at the dozens of pounds of meat, Yvonne Watson was already complaining before she even started.
Usually, when they had to unload the goods, they would not have to do this kind of work. But now they had someone to help unload the goods, and they were short of hands in the kitchen, they definitely had to do some work.
However, chopping meat into mince required a tremendous amount of wrist strength. Otherwise, their hands would be sore after a while.
While Yvonne Watson was worrying, Flossie Wright next to her was already making her move. The knife in her hand was designed especially for cutting meat. With two cuts, she had already chopped the meat into three large pieces. The remaining two pieces were put back into the basin. What followed was a series of technical operations. The knife in her hand was as fast as flying, swiftly jumping about so fast that it was almost invisible. After a flash of dazzling white light, the large pieces of meat had all been chopped into small pieces of the same size.
Yvonne Watson was stunned, her mouth wide open with surprise.
She had never seen such amazing knife skills, even from their team leader.
Next, Flossie Wright’s movements were even faster to the point of being unbelievable. The banging sound of the knife continued without stopping. The chopping board underneath did not move at all. After the swift flashing of the knife, the small piece of meat gradually turned into mince. The incredible visual change was like watching a mesmerizing magic show. Yvonne Watson was so amazed that she choked on her exclamation, and she was about to scream out loud at any moment.
