He is two meters and five centimeters tall. Who made him a soldier?

Chapter 21 Making the Quilt (Part )
He ate a steamed bun and an egg, mainly because he saw Lu Qinglong eating so happily that he couldn't help but ask.

"It's delicious, I'll give you a plate!"

Lu Qinglong took Ji Baichang's plate very readily, scooped a portion from the large iron plate he brought, and happily handed it to Ji Baichang.

"Too much, Qinglong! Too much, I can't eat it all."

Ji Baichang waved repeatedly, but he couldn't refuse Lu Qinglong's kindness, so he could only start eating noodles.

However, after taking two bites, I found that the taste was just so-so. The main thing was that the way Lu Qinglong ate made him look very appetizing.

"Class 10 is serving lunch."

When the attendant called the tenth shift to get lunch, the recruits in the last class fell silent as they stared at the empty iron plates on the dining table.

"Squad leader, it seems there is only a little fried rice left. Shall we have fried rice for breakfast?"

One of the recruits asked cautiously.

"Um...yes, you guys should eat some fried rice first. The kitchen staff is out of rice."

The attendant explained somewhat awkwardly.

The half plate of steamed buns that I brought back from the kitchen was eaten by the old soldiers in the kitchen, so there was really no extra breakfast at all.

"Cool."

"I haven't eaten so comfortably in a long time."

Lu Qinglong touched his stomach with satisfaction. In front of him were two large empty iron boxes.

He ate a plate of big white steamed buns, a large bowl of fried noodles, and drank two bottles of milk by himself.

The recruits around him didn't know what to say and could only silently give Lu Qinglong a thumbs up.

"That's awesome! I now understand why some people say they can eat a whole cow. This guy can really eat a lot!"

"Shh! Keep your voice down. Look at the resentful looks in the eyes of those recruits in Class 10."

Perhaps because he felt that the cafeteria was a bit noisy, the attendant who had just sat down to eat breakfast stood up and said loudly:

"Quiet! No talking while eating in the cafeteria!"

Suddenly, all the recruits quieted down and ate their meals obediently.

After most people had finished their meals, the officer on duty directed the recruits to get up and wash the dishes.

After all, these are the new recruits' first contact with these things, so they feel a little unfamiliar. As a duty officer, he has to be more careful on the first day, but it will be fine later.

The whole process of the meal is to gather in front of the barracks building first, and then be taken to the canteen entrance to sing a song before the meal.

After singing, they go in and get their meals in the order of their classes. After getting their meals, they go out to wash the dishes. After washing the dishes, they bring them back in a unified queue according to their classes.

"Hmm? Lu Qinglong, your quilt is folded very standardly. Why don't you come and teach them later in the morning?"

The new recruits of Class 1 had just returned to the classroom. Lu Qinglong, who was at the end of the team, was immediately pointed at by the squad leader Chen Ting who was sitting on the bed.

"Okay, squad leader, I'll try."

Lu Qinglong nodded and replied.

It was at this time that the other recruits looked at Lu Qinglong's quilt.

A bed of neatly laid tofu blocks was placed before their eyes.

"What's going on? Brother Long, this is the quilt you made! Aren't you amazing? If you hadn't told me, I would have thought it was the old soldier's bed!"

"Yes, Brother Long! Please teach us!"

After just half a day of getting along, they found that Lu Qinglong's behavior did not seem as scary as his face.

Except for the hoarse voice in the morning when he hasn't gotten up yet, he seems to be a pretty good person at other times.

"Okay, I'll watch and teach you."

Lu Qinglong looked at the group of people surrounding him and even felt a little embarrassed.

After all, this feeling was something he had never enjoyed before. "The army is great."

Lu Qinglong thought to himself.

He picked up Ji Bai's long quilt and spread it on his bed.

But he seemed to feel that the bed was too small to move around, so he asked Ji Baichang:

"How about I spread it on the floor? Can you accept your quilt being spread on the floor for demonstration?"

When Ji Baichang heard that the quilt he slept under had to be spread on the ground, he realized that the ground was so dirty!
Ji Baichang, who was a bit of a germaphobe, immediately waved his hand.

However, Xue Daochao, who was standing by, handed his quilt to Lu Qinglong and said that it could be spread on the floor.

"Thanks."

After taking the quilt and saying thank you, Lu Qinglong spread it flat on the ground. The recruits around him immediately gathered around the quilt, leaving just enough space for them to stand.

"Because my father and brother are both soldiers, they taught me how to fold tofu cubes correctly in advance, so I can fold them better than everyone else."

As Lu Qinglong spoke, he folded the inner corner of the quilt to one-third of the way up and pressed the bent part flat with force.

(Figure 1)

The originally uneven cotton inside the military blanket was squeezed into a straight line in his hands, which showed how strong his hands were.

"Then we fold the other side in half like this."

Lu Qinglong stretched out his hand and folded it again, and the original quilt immediately became one-third of the width.

(Figure 2)

Then he pressed his whole body down on it, and the cotton in the quilt was flattened by the sudden and terrifying weight.

Lu Qinglong pressed the quilt very hard and carefully, flattening every corner.

After doing all this, he did not rush to proceed, but said to the other recruits:
"First, press it like this, and then show me how to fold it using the three-point folding method. If everyone in the class can do it, I'll move on to the next step."

After Lu Qinglong finished speaking, the other recruits excitedly ran to their respective quilts and began to fold them according to Lu Qinglong's instructions.

But they soon discovered something was wrong.

"No, why is my quilt so bulging? Brother Long, why is your quilt completely different in your hands than in ours?"

After folding the quilt, one of the recruits looked at the quilt in his hand, then looked at the quilt on the ground, and could not help but make a puzzled sound.

"That's because you didn't press the quilt well. Try to press the cotton inside firmly so that you can proceed to the next step."

"Oh, okay."

The recruit nodded, then began to kneel on the quilt, trying hard to press the cotton bit by bit, just like how Lu Qinglong had just pressed the quilt.

However, the efficiency is really worrying. After pressing it for a long time, there was no change at all.

"No, cousin~ Do you have the strength of Brother Long?"

"Take the small board and press it!"

Song Si, who was standing by, couldn't stand it anymore and reminded him in the tone of his cousin from Guangxi.

At the same time, he did not forget to gesture with the small stool in his hand.

"Oh! I understand. I'll use a small stool to press it down."

The recruit nodded, picked up the small stool and started to press the quilt.

"Forget it, I'll help you press it."

"Wait a minute, Lu Qinglong, don't help others to suppress, you should suppress your own."

Chen Ting, who was sitting on the bed drinking tea, suddenly spoke, stopping Lu Qinglong from wanting to help others press the quilt.
