Chapter 651 Video Call with Gu Ying's Fiancé! [Monthly Ticket Requested]
After Diao Chan dragged her suitcase and walked into the campus with a happy face, Li Yu also turned the car around, went to Gate 6 of the steel factory, and turned into the yard that had been abandoned for more than ten years.
Compared with noon, the yard is obviously different now. All the surveillance cameras have been removed, and some vacancies have been made in the warehouse. A group of workers from the Furniture City are busy installing the bunk beds that Wu Song specially bought.
In order to give everyone a private space, Wu Song also bought some curtains to separate the accommodation area and debris area of the warehouse.
In front of the faucet in the yard, Zhao Dahu was playing with an outdoor stove.
This thing is renovated from a discarded oil drum and is suitable for burning coal. This kind of stove is usually used for weddings and weddings in rural areas.
Both stoves have been prepared, and a shed has been set up next to it. There is a long table and a large chopping board. On the chopping board, there is half a fan of pork, as well as Chinese cabbage, vermicelli, tofu and other ingredients.
In the open space next to it, there are about a dozen stainless steel basins of various sizes, three oversized iron pots, four matching oversized cages, and condiments such as oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar.
Seeing Li Yu, Zhao Dahu quickly said:
"You should be responsible for starting the fire. Get the big pot of food out as soon as possible, lest those people come hungry... Can I stay here and take a look later?"
Li Yu was a little curious:
"What's there to see? It's not like you've never seen the characters in the book."
"I have seen it before, but I have never seen it transformed here. I feel that the plot of the novel is reflected in reality. If it weren't for the need to keep it secret, I would have wanted to start a live broadcast, so the reward should not be a big deal."
Li Yu: "..."
Then your account will most likely be blocked immediately.
Li Yu washed his hands and started cutting meat.
All the workers will be coming tonight, and their reception banquet must be prepared in advance.
The reception banquet is very simple, with a big pot of food and big steamed buns. Zhao Dahu has already ordered 500 handmade steamed buns so that everyone can enjoy them.
In order to prevent the waste of ingredients, Wu Song also brought a large freezer. The remaining meat and uneaten steamed buns can be frozen and kept until tomorrow.
Li Yu cut thirty kilograms of meat, cut all the tofu and cabbage, then boiled a pot of water in a large iron pot, and washed all the kitchen utensils to be used with boiling water.
Then he began to stir-fry the fatty meat, refine the lard, and then use the lard for cooking.
While he was busy, Zhou Ruotong drove here with Brother Dao.
After Brother Dao got out of the car, he looked around like a cadre, then squatted down next to Li Yu and yelled twice impatiently.
Li Yu poured the cabbage into the pot, pointed to the workshop next to him and said:
"Find a place inside and open a door. Don't squat here. If you look back, your hair will be burned. You, a heavenly master, will be like a bald mountain eagle with a bald tail."
When Brother Dao heard this, he got up and left, went to the workshop to find a place that would not affect access, and opened a space-time door.
As soon as he opened it, Qin Qiong stepped over here:
"Eh? This isn't a warehouse? Where is this?"
Zhao Dahu outside the workshop heard Qin Qiong's voice and quickly opened the door and came in. He rubbed his eyes in surprise:
"No, Brother Qin, you really came from there?"
Not sure how much Zhao Dahu knew, Qin Qiong did not dare to answer hastily, but changed the topic:
"Brother Dahu, where is this place?"
"An abandoned workshop in a steel factory. Li Yu was preparing to find someone to vacate the place. Unexpectedly, instead of waiting for the workers from the book world, I waited for Brother Qin... You haven't eaten yet? A big pot is being made outside. The dishes are guaranteed to make you want to eat them again.”
Qin Qiong asked with a smile:
"Do you know everything?"
"I know. On the day of the engagement, the video Zhang San recorded for me showed a bunch of dead people and blood everywhere. At first, I said, where is this guy working as an extra? Isn't this scene too realistic? Later Li Yu told me that those were really dead people... I feel like Zhang Saner did it on purpose!"
Yide cannot bully Wen Hou, he can only bully you... Thinking of Zhang Fei's mischief, Qin Qiong burst into laughter:
"I haven't congratulated you on your engagement to Sister Wen Jing yet. Since dinner is about to begin, Brother Yu would like to ask for a glass of wedding wine to try."
"It's easy to talk about wedding wine. I have four or five boxes of Maotai in my car. I'll let you, second brother, drink to your heart's content..."
The two walked out of the workshop. Li Yu saw Qin Qiong and asked him:
"Is it smoothed over in Shangai County?"
Qin Qiong nodded:
"Everything has been smoothed out. We have people carry out autumn plowing, plant winter wheat, and also take over several nearby coal mines and iron mines, improve the mining process and equipment, and improve the efficiency of mining."
At this time, the workers who installed the bunk beds had already driven away. Wu Song drove a small truck and brought over a dozen folding round tables and folding chairs for everyone to eat.
When he saw Qin Qiong, he quickly came to say hello, and then said while unloading the truck:
"There are really a lot of good things in the second-hand furniture market. When the work here is over, I plan to go shopping again and buy all the tables, chairs, benches, furniture and appliances that can be used."
Zhou Ruotong, who was helping to peel garlic, reminded:
"You can also go to the second-hand equipment market. As long as the price is right, you can buy it. Even if you buy a scrap, you can use the magic of gods to repair it."
As long as it is not a murder weapon, after the immortal repairs it, not only will there be no cause and effect, but it will earn a lot of merit. Especially for equipment that is closely related to people's livelihood, such as electric grinders, it is full of merit.
Not long after, Li Shimin also came here along the newly opened door:
"Are all these equipments given to us? I have to go back and inform them so that they can prepare the venue."
Li Yu said:
"This is the world of Three Kingdoms and Water Margin. You guys should just focus on developing first. Don't worry. It won't be too late to give it to you when we have equipment next time."
Zhou Ruotong nodded:
"After stabilizing the entire Taiyuan County, you must first develop northward, take down Shuozhou, and then start digging open-pit coal mines."
With coal and iron ore, Taiyuan will soon become a major steel producer, far exceeding the average level of the Sui Dynasty.
When he heard that there was no share for him, Li Shimin immediately focused on the big pot dishes:
"I haven't eaten for almost a day. I'll eat more later."
When Zhou Ruotong heard this, he quickly brought a box of food from the car to the child, including instant noodles, hand-torn bread, potato chips, braised eggs, ham sausage, etc.
Li Yu asked:
"What have you been busy with? You haven't eaten for a day?"
"I cleaned up the yard for Changsun's family... I received a letter from Chang'an this morning. My future father-in-law Changsun Sheng was once critically ill, but he finally recovered. As soon as he recovered, he asked to come to Taiyuan and bring his whole family with him."
It seems that Taibai Jinxing has finished the matter.
Before Changsun Sheng was critically ill, Li Shimin asked Li Yu for help, and Li Yu found his old mother, and finally Taibai Jinxing handled the matter.
Now Changsun Sheng took the initiative to ask to go to Taiyuan, which shows that Taibai Jinxing's strategy has been successful.
Zhou Ruotong told Li Shimin:
"When they arrive in Jinyang, take some photos and videos. I will ask Xuanzang to take them to the Journey to the West World and let Changsun Wugui and Changsun Wuji there take a look, so that they don't have to worry about it all the time."
"Okay, Master, I thank you on behalf of Sister Wugui!"
Li Shimin and Qin Qiong were not idle. They changed their clothes and helped Yang Xiu to make the bed, laying out all the bedding, so that the newcomers would not be clumsy and could not lay the bed.
Zhao Dahu also helped to pull the lights in the warehouse and installed a projector on the wall, so that everyone could lie on the bed and watch movies.
Wu Song washed the stainless steel basin and chopsticks twice outside to make it convenient for everyone to eat.
While they were busy, the owner of the nearby steamed bun shop drove an electric tricycle to deliver 500 freshly steamed handmade buns.
Although this kind of steamed bun is called handmade steamed bun, it is not kneaded by hand, but kneaded by a steamed bun machine according to the strength of human hands. It is harder than ordinary steamed buns, and tastes more chewy and is more popular.
Li Yu put the vermicelli into the pot, stirred it with an oversized spatula, and pressed the vermicelli underneath, so that it is easier to absorb the soup and soften.
Yang Xiu spread the bedding and put the newly bought washbasin, towel and other items in a unified manner.
When all the things were done, it was already dark. Zhao Dahu turned on the headlights in the yard, then came to the workshop with a cigarette in his mouth, found a corner against the wall, and just sat down, he saw Liu Xie suddenly appear.
This guy was so shocked that he dropped his cigarette. He imagined the time travel countless times, but he didn't expect it to happen so directly in front of him.
After Liu Xie appeared, workers wearing labor protection clothes appeared one by one. Some of them were carrying weapons. When they saw Zhao Dahu, they pulled out the ring-headed swords at their waists with a clang.
Liu Xie saw that it was Zhao Dahu, and quickly stopped him:
"He is Master Zhao, the blacksmith beside you, why don't you quickly salute?"
Hearing this, the few people holding weapons quickly put them away, bowed and greeted Zhao Dahu, and the others looked left and right, and asked Liu Xie tremblingly:
"Your Majesty, didn't you say that you can see Director Yang when you get here?"
When they came to the real world, they had all their memories, and they also remembered Yang Xiu and Yang Dezu, the director of the Industrial Zone Management Committee.
Zhao Dahu pointed outside and said:
"It's all over there, I'll take you to see everyone."
He was very excited, and felt a sense of surprise that he had finally entered the core circle of the homestay.
Not long after everyone went out, Yue Fei also led a group of workers to the outside. After everyone greeted each other, Li Yu waved his hand and started to help everyone get food.
Eat first, and talk about all the problems tomorrow.
Everyone has a big pot of dishes, hot steamed buns can be made at will, and if there is not enough, you can ask someone to send it at any time.
Li Shimin took a trembling piece of pork belly and put it into his mouth, and asked Li Yu for advice:
"Sir, sister Wugui can't eat fatty meat. She will vomit after eating a little bit. But if she doesn't eat meat, her body is not strong enough. What should I do?"
Li Yu said:
"Eating meat is a gradual process. You can eat lean meat at the beginning, especially those tender parts, such as tenderloin, plum meat, etc. In addition, try a few more methods, not just stewing and roasting. You can try some shabu-shabu meat, teppanyaki meat, or chop it into stuffing. It's all fine."
Li Shimin planned to wait for Zhangsun Wugui to return to Jinyang, and then start making preparations. He must find a way to keep the destined queen alive for a hundred years, and must not let her die early.
Zhou Ruotong advised:
"Don't just think about eating, you need to exercise more, eat more vegetables, and get enough nutrition. If Changsun Wugou is always weak, I will ask Yunxiao to go and see her and make her a bowl of fairy grass soup to replenish her vitality."
Li Yu ate two steamed buns and a bowl of vegetables, and began to teach the two cooks how to use the coal stove and blower.
Today is just a simple explanation, tomorrow Li Yu will take the two to learn it well. As a cook of the homestay power, cooking big pot dishes is a basic skill, and you can't do it without it.
Li Yu didn't stay for too long. After explaining the precautions, he drove to Guanlan Mingshu Community with Zhou Ruotong.
In the factory area, Zhao Dahu, Wu Song and Yang Xiu did not leave, and they would teach everyone all the precautions. Qin Qiong and Li Shimin also helped to explain some common sense of life.
Wu Song also bought a professional electric hair clipper and re-cut the hair of several workers whose hair was not up to standard.
At Guanlan Mingshu's home, Li Yu took a bath, changed into the spring and autumn pajamas bought by Professor Zhou, leaned on the sofa, picked up the remote control, and started to choose a movie.
Zhou Ruotong took a bath in Diao Chan's room, changed into the same pajamas as Li Yu, and said to Li Yu:
"Hubby, I want to eat oranges."
Li Yu put down the remote control and went to the kitchen, took out a few oranges from the refrigerator, cut them into small pieces with a fruit knife, and took a few more fruits, peeled them first and then cut them into pieces, and made a simple fruit plate.
Inserting toothpicks, and preparing a plate of nuts and a bag of melon seeds, Li Yu carried them to the living room with a tray and saw Zhou Ruotong holding a mobile phone and talking to Gu Ying on video.
Seeing the fruit plate and food that Li Yu was carrying, the rich lady on the other side of the earth was envious:
"Damn, what kind of man is this? He actually took the initiative to carry the fruit plate and take the food. I wish my man could be so diligent. He only knows how to give money all day long. He is obsessed with money."
Li Yu: "..."
Giving money to spend is not good? Do you know how envious I am?
But thinking about the several cards given by Professor Zhou in her wallet, and even the car bought by Professor Zhou, Li Yu suddenly stopped envying the rich woman.
Zhou Ruotong took a bite of an orange and started talking to Gu Ying about business:
"Is your beef okay? Don't let it fail the customs quarantine inspection."
Gu Ying waved her hand:
"Don't worry, it's okay. Today we ate M12's black beef, which tastes like ice cream. Next time we will send you a few hundred kilograms on the ship, come and try it."
Li Yu clasped his fists and said:
"Thank you, rich woman."
"Ha, what's there to thank? My factory is not busy anymore, go and have a look. Anyway, I have given you all the production capacity. If you can't eat it, tell me in advance so that I can make other arrangements."
Li Yu fed Zhou Ruotong a piece of cantaloupe:
"Don't worry, I'll take as much as you want, and I will never break my promise."
As they were chatting, a man with an oriental face appeared in the video. He was handsome, but obviously a little round, like Daniel Wu who had gained weight.
Gu Ying introduced:
"This is my fiancé Zhang Hao. He was also a beautiful school idol. Unfortunately, he has been busy with business in recent years. This school idol of ours has grown bigger and bigger and has become a broad-leaved weed."
Zhang Hao habitually confronted his fiancée:
"What's wrong with me being a broad-leaved weed? Aren't you also a broad-leaved rose?"
Well, after the two fell in love, Gu Ying became more and more plump and had a typical slightly plump Korean comic figure.
Zhang Hao sat down next to Gu Ying and waved to Li Yu in the camera:
"You are Mr. Li, Mr. Zhou's boyfriend, right? I've been watching short videos of your scenic spot recently. Many foreigners want to wear Hanfu to visit your scenic spot. They think it's a cool heritage and they think Hanfu is beautiful. The Hanfu that Xiaoying brought was all bought by local foreigners at high prices."
Li Yu rarely heard foreigners praise Hanfu, and asked curiously:
"Did you sell all those Hanfu?"
"It's not really selling. I just showed off and wanted these South American bumpkins to see the beauty of our Chinese clothing. I didn't expect them to be so excited. Xiaoying is also planning to import a batch of them, so that the foreign devils here can also wear Hanfu to celebrate the Spring Festival. Although it's a bit difficult to post Spring Festival couplets and make dumplings, it's still okay to say Happy New Year and Congratulations on making a fortune."
At this point, Gu Ying also said that the Hanfu factory should hurry up to produce a batch of Hanfu, and export them directly to Argentina.
In the past, shirts were exchanged for planes, and now Hanfu is exchanged for beef, which is also a good story of international trade.
As they were chatting, a gunshot was heard in the video. Zhang Hao immediately pulled out a Glock 19 pistol from his waist, picked up the intercom on the table, and notified the bodyguards downstairs in fluent Spanish to take precautions.
After the arrangements were completed, he opened the sofa next to him and took out a Benelli M4 shotgun, which made Li Yu stunned. He didn't expect Argentina to be so chaotic.
Gu Ying, on the other hand, had been sitting on the sofa without moving, and even yawned out of boredom:
"Two arms dealers live in our community, and there is blood and gore all day long. Zhang Hao refused to move to another place, and said he wanted to wait for business opportunities here."
Zhou Ruotong said:
"You must pay attention to safety, don't be careless."
Gu Ying smiled and lifted Zhang Hao's clothes and said:
"Last time I said Dun Dun was effective, and my husband found the best embroidery master in Argentina without saying a word and tattooed Dun Dun on his body."
Li Yu was completely stunned.
This is really "Fat cat Dun Dun tattooed on the body, applause to the lucky person". With Dun Dun's care, let alone two arms dealers in the community, even if you move directly to their hideout, you can be safe and sound.
Soon, the gunshots stopped, and Zhang Hao put away his guns, and turned back into the handsome guy who was young and fat.
Li Yu looked at the gun he was holding and wanted to feel it too.
Unfortunately, guns are banned in China, so you can only feel the charm of shooting by going to some professional shooting ranges.
After the chat, Li Yu was still thinking about the gun. In order to get the gun smoothly, he even considered letting Gouzi open a space-time gate abroad.
If you can open a space-time gate abroad, there will be too many things you can buy, even large ships... The only question is, when can Gouzi upgrade to open a space-time gate abroad?
Alas, this is really "If a dog doesn't work hard, he will be sad when he is rich"!
When Li Yu was thinking about this, the dog lying on the mink carpet in the factory suddenly turned over, and the plot of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" flashed in his mind. Countless names of the Three Kingdoms passed through his mind quickly, and finally, a name that will be remembered for thousands of years was fixed in his mind:
"Zhuge Liang!"
