Chapter 326: This Looks Like Canned Beef?!
326
The big iron door of the warehouse slammed shut, and the musty smell of the room instantly filled Liu Xinghao's nostrils, causing him to sneeze several times in succession.
As far as the eye can see, the entire warehouse is hundreds of square meters in size, and there are all kinds of messy cardboard boxes and debris everywhere, and a thick layer of dust falls on them. If you clean it all, you will have to be smoked to death by the musty smell even if you don't die of exhaustion!
In the midst of those miscellaneous items, Liu Xinghao saw a middle-aged uncle holding a broom, he was also wearing a blue and white prison uniform like himself, and the rustling sweeping sound just now must have come from him.
"Yo, I think my old guy is slow, is this sending me a helper?" It was Yu Yaohai, who had been cleaning the warehouse for several days in a row, and he took a closer look at this new young man, with long hands and feet and a well-proportioned figure, like a good helper for work.
Liu Xinghao was also observing Yu Yaohai, although this forty or fifty-year-old uncle was not tall, the temperament he exuded was quite extraordinary. His gaze was very indifferent, as if he had seen through the vicissitudes of the world. Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his face did not change, it should be said that this is the kind of person.
Yu Yaohai touched the stubble on his chin, and said with a smile: "Young man, my old face is very beautiful, do you want to see me so attentive?" He is easy-going by nature and loves to joke, this kind of person will not be annoying wherever he goes.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Liu Xinghao hurriedly retracted his abrupt gaze, picked up the broom dustpan on the side, and swept it up vigorously.
Who knew that he didn't sweep it, but with a wave of the broom, the dust on the ground was raised, and the air was already full of musty smell, and then mixed with the dust, the turbid air was simply impossible to breathe!
Yu Yaohai hurriedly covered his mouth and nose with his hand, stepped over in three steps and two steps, and pulled Liu Xinghao to hide in the place he had cleaned. The two of them hid behind a shelf, and the air here was a little better.
I only heard Yu Yaohai angrily shuluo said: "Young man, are you here to help, or are you here to make trouble?" This ground is full of floating ash, you can't sweep it vigorously, you can only wave the broom slowly and leisurely, do you understand?"
"I'm sorry! Uncle, I was anxious to finish sweeping it early, I didn't know that this dust was so bad!" Liu Xinghao was also choked, and his face was covered with floating ash, as if he had just been dug out of the ground.
"You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry! You know, sometimes it's faster to take your time. Yu Yaohai smiled, picked a clean place, and sat down.
The words that came out of the mouth of this middle-aged uncle seemed to be very philosophical, and Liu Xinghao recalled it in his mind for a long time: "Take your time, will it really be faster?"
"Rest for a while, young man, and then sweep it when the dust settles. Yu Yaohai took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one in his mouth, and gave way to Liu Xinghao. "Do you smoke?"
Liu Xinghao didn't smoke much originally, but now after coming in, he found that smoking is actually a very good way to express his inner depression. Two big men squatting together and smoking a cigarette, chatting for a while, often relieve a lot of boredom in their hearts.
Liu Xinghao took the cigarette, nodded at the uncle to express his gratitude, and reported to his family: "Uncle, my name is Liu Xinghao, and I am from Brother Geng's warehouse in the third prison district. ”
"Geng Xugang, you've only been in for a few days, and you're sure you're going to be alive when you see me. Yu Yaohai smiled, "I am from the first prison district, my surname is Yu, Yu Yaohai." ”
Yu Yaohai's fame is still very loud in the No. 7 Prison, but people are not notorious for fighting and killing, but for being kind and benevolent, and many prisoners actually want to get acquainted with this Boss Yu! But Liu Xinghao has only been here for a few days, and he doesn't know what kind of character this Boss Yu is in front of him, so he directly opened his mouth and said: "Then I'll call you Uncle Yu! Looking at your age, you shouldn't be as old as my father." ”
"Hehe, whatever you call. Yu Yaohai actually doesn't like others to call him Boss Yu, "Boss! Boss!" sounds like a big brother in the underworld. He is just the eldest of the three sons of the Yu family, and when he hears people call him Boss Yu, he always feels a little awkward, but calling Uncle Yu seems a lot more kind.
He spat out the clouds, looked at Liu Xinghao, and asked, "Why did you offend Yue Jiao?
"Ahh Liu Xinghao is also confused, he is lying in the prison warehouse well, and he was inexplicably arranged by Yue Jiao to come here to clean what warehouse, looking at this, today's release must be no fun.
"You didn't offend him? He didn't ask you for any benefits?" Yu Yaohai hehe, he guessed with his toes, and he could guess what the more he disciplined that kind of small-bellied chicken intestines, he would lose his temper.
"What benefits do you want? I'm locked up here, what other benefits can I give him?" Liu Xinghao thought for a while and asked rhetorically, "What about you? Uncle Yu, why were you assigned here?"
The first time he opened his mouth, he asked me for 50,000 yuan, saying that he could help me apply for a commutation of sentence at the end of the year. I didn't think much about it, so I gave it to him. Who knew that this guy's appetite was getting bigger and bigger, and it hadn't been out for two months, and he had found me again, and this time the lion opened his mouth, and it would cost eighty or ninety thousand yuan for one mouth! I wasn't used to his temper, when I was the one who opened a bank!" Yu Yaohai was angry when he thought of Yue Discipline's face. A person can be shameless, but such shamelessness is rare in the world!
"I'm going, I can't imagine that there will be such a show! This more discipline looks like a human on the surface, but it turns out that he still does this in private?" When Liu Xinghao was in the detention center before, although he heard from his cellmates that the prison was darker than the detention center, he didn't know how many times it was darker, but he hadn't experienced it personally these days.
"I'll tell you, young man, the more it looks like a human thing, the more it isn't a human in private!" Yu Yaohai angrily pinched the cigarette butt and stood up. "Well, don't say anything, just work. Anyway, I'm idle every day, and my old bones are about to rust, so it's okay to move. ”
Liu Xinghao threw away the cigarette butt and stood up. This time he picked up the broom and did not dare to exert any more force, but gently scratched the ground, and the dust was obediently swept into the dustpan.
Two people must have worked faster than one, and it didn't take long for the floating ash on the ground to be swept away. Liu Xinghao glanced at the cardboard boxes next to the shelves, and asked Yu Yaohai, "Uncle Yu, what are these boxes?
"Who knows what it is, one by one, I can't move it alone, so I don't care about it. After working for a long time, a layer of sweat beads appeared on Yu Yaohai's head.
"I'll try it, these boxes are so horizontal on the road that it's too inconvenient to walk. Liu Xinghao wiped the sweat on his head and stepped forward to hug a box.
He lifted it vigorously and found that the box was really heavy, and this box had to be at least seventy or eighty pounds. However, this weight is nothing to Liu Xinghao, his legs are tense in his waist and abdomen, and he lifted his hands hard, and he really lifted this big box.
But after lifting the box and walking for less than two steps, I felt that the box suddenly became lighter! Then there was a chaotic sound of "bang, bang, bang", and the contents of the box fell to the ground.
It turned out that the bottom of the carton was already very fragile due to the years, and under such a bump, it suddenly collapsed and rotted out of a big hole.
"What's wrong with you, are you okay?" Yu Yaohai heard the messy movement here, and quickly put down the broom and dustpan in his hand and rushed over.
The two of them looked at the things scattered on the ground, and they were a little dumbfounded!
I saw a jar of square and round cans scattered everywhere on the ground, although there was no label on it, but each jar was sturdy, and I didn't know what it contained.
"This ...... This is...... What can?" Liu Xinghao bent down to pick up a broken can, only to see a piece of meat puree fall out of it. He put it next to his nose and sniffed it, and there was no strange smell, but there was a smell of beef. Liu Xinghao stared at Yu Yaohai with wide eyes, and asked, "Uncle Yu, is this ...... Can this be eaten? This looks like canned beef?!"
"What?canned beef?" As soon as Yu Yaohai on the side heard that it was canned beef, he immediately picked up a can from the ground, he didn't have so many scruples, and directly dug a large piece and stuffed it into his mouth.
Canning is a way to preserve food using sealed aseptic techniques. Canned food can be used to preserve not only meat, fish, but also vegetables and fruits. Preserving food in this way is not only easy to transport and carry, but also very convenient to eat immediately without cooking. During the Second World War, it was one of the most basic rations for soldiers.
Like Liu Xinghao, their generation has not experienced the war era, and there is no shortage of food, so there are still very few opportunities to eat canned food. Therefore, it can be said that there is no concept of the taste of canned food. He watched Yu Yaohai eat one bite after another, but he was tempted to drool, and he couldn't help but dig a small piece and stuff it into his mouth.
Well, as soon as this bite is stuffed into the mouth, it will be full of flavor in an instant! The soft beef is cooked very soft and glutinous when it is made, and it is cut into grains very evenly, and the mouth is full of the pleasure of chewing minced meat. The fat sandwiched in the minced meat turns into a delicate gravy, and with the light tapping of the teeth again and again, it is simply delicate and dripping, and you can't stop it!
The two of them killed several cans of canned beef in one go, and Liu Xinghao thought of a very critical question at this time!
