Chapter 10 Free is the smell of food

The squad leader led people to the cafeteria, and the canteen staff had already distributed the rice to the water tank in front of each class, the rice was piece-by-piece, after all, the rice was steamed out of the tray enlarged steamer, and each class put a few pieces, about dozens of catties of rice. The dish is water spinach and is cut into sections. The color is black, not as verdant as that fried in a small pot. The squad leader arranged for the students on duty to share the meals, and he himself and his life were entrusted to the vegetable department near the middle of the two gates of the canteen, saying that it was the vegetable department, but in fact, it was a rectangle surrounded by the old desk, the length was four desks, and the width was two desks, and now the dishes have been placed on the table, divided into 8 piles, that is, a total of four dishes, one is braised pork, one is lean meat (of course, the soup is more meaty) one is tofu, and the other is bean sprouts. Four dishes are served in four pots. The same dish is divided into 8 canteen masters to sell, so it is difficult to explain, unlike schools with good conditions that have a window to buy vegetables. A master is responsible for a window and buys four dishes, but there is no window in the county high conditions here, so the table is set up to sell, and the eight masters are responsible for buying vegetables, which is to divert the students who come to buy vegetables and add meals. Still, it's crowded. In order to be able to buy vegetables early, everyone (there will be no vegetables to add later) are crowded to buy, this may be a successful business sales case - hunger sales. There is never enough food to sell, and it just so happens that there are no leftovers in the cafeteria, and there is no need to buy a refrigerator to store them. The canteen also never had a refrigerator.

The squad leader and the life committee went directly to the food department and found the person in charge of the canteen, not to mention that it happened to be Pete's wife's brother-in-law. The squad leader explained his intention and said: After class 128, each meal will have one meat and two vegetables per day, and it will be counted according to two yuan per person. One piece of meat and two vegetarian dishes are five cents each. At noon, I will take this meal from the vegetable department, and there are now 82 people in the class to eat, so it is 164 pieces in total, so let's take the three dishes of braised pork, tofu, and bean sprouts. The dinner in the evening was also so many heads and so much money, and I hope that the chefs will put it on the table of Class 128 after the dishes are fried.

The person in charge of the canteen readily agreed to the squad leader's request, and the squad leader paid the money for ten days. Of course, it also includes a dollar for breakfast, bread or cake money. The school will not allow Class 128 to buy breakfast from outside, and it doesn't matter, anyway, to earn some money for the canteen, they are responsible for contacting the person who buys breakfast. After receiving the money, the person in charge of the canteen made a receipt, and the matter was done, who is too much to increase sales, 82 points of dishes, and they are all two yuan, which almost accounts for half of the noon sales. Few students add two yuan, and most of them add a tofu sprout. I didn't see that there were fewer meat dishes, just a little bit.

The squad leader saw two large plates of braised pork with almost a few catties on each plate. The saliva is flowing out, there is no way to be poor, the family gives less than 10 yuan a week for living expenses, where can the meat dare to eat at once. Now each person can get 2 taels, even if there is more oil in the plate, it's okay, can the oil be put into the bean sprouts and the water spinach in the canteen, stir, increase the oil and water, and the greens taste much better. The squad leader's life committee, as well as the students on duty, shared the meals, and immediately bought the three dishes and the dishes distributed in the canteen. One by one, they were distributed into each pot where the rice had been contained. Here, the food is in the same pot, and there is no way to make the rice a rice dish is a dish.

"Jingle bell" class bell rang, and suddenly the quiet campus became noisy, it is not an exaggeration to say that chickens fly and dogs jump, and even the sound of rapid footsteps can be heard from far to near, and there are a few starving ghosts reincarnated in any class.

Xiang Ming and Li Ling also walked out of the classroom and walked to the cafeteria with the flow of people, and today they completed the action of adding vegetables, Li Ling was in a good mood, and she kept shouting that she would definitely be able to finish the meal at noon, and there would be no leftovers. Xiang Ming didn't speak and kept laughing. In fact, Xiang Ming also has feelings in his heart, and the old man is right: it is better to be happy together than to be alone. Xiang Ming is very happy today, he arrived at the canteen after a while, the canteen is even more noisy than the vegetable market, take the rice and add the vegetables, Xiang Ming They walked slowly, there were few plates left on the table of the 128 class, Xiang Ming got his own plate, the students' plates were not uniformly distributed or purchased, the patterns and colors were different, only they knew their own plates, and many students wrote their names on the bottom of the plates. Xiang Ming held the rice plate in his hand, feeling a sense of heaviness, needless to say, one meat and three vegetables, the dishes piled the rice plate high. Help Li Ling's dinner plate was also served, and together they went to the stone table under the big banyan tree outside the cafeteria. The other 5 classmates who ate together for breakfast had already come, two of them were from class 128, and the classmates in the same class as Xiang Ming and Li Ling had the same lunch dishes as Xiang Ming and Li Ling. 128 Add vegetables, but neither of them started eating, and they have been used to eating together for almost two years. Xiang Ming didn't say anything, but still took out a large plate from his backpack and put it on the stone table. Everyone tacitly gathered the dishes in the rice bowl in one basin first, the four people in class 128 had the same dishes, and the other four other classes were just water spinach, so they poured the dishes into a large water tank nearby for leftovers. Xiang Ming did magic again, and took out two insulated dishes from his backpack, one was roast duck. The big roast duck weighs two and a half pounds, and the other is fried pork slices with bamboo shoots. "Let's start, don't waste it" Xiang Ming spoke, and everyone started immediately. After all, the dishes are too fragrant, and the portions are enough, enough for three boys and four girls, including Xiang Ming.

"The squad leader came over to eat together" Xiang Ming had already seen the squad leader and a few squad cadres who were dodging under another banyan tree, and when he saw that they wanted to come over, he was afraid that others would say that they were hungry for cats, but come on, today's action to add vegetables is Li Ling's money and efforts, and I have to thank you a little. Xiang Ming knew what they thought, so he simply asked them to eat together, anyway, they all added vegetables, Xiang Ming still has roast duck and fried meat with bamboo shoots.

"Hmm. I'll be right away," the squad leader responded happily. Soon three men and two women came with plates. There are a lot of students who eat under these 8 big banyan trees, and there are not only stone tables and stone benches around the roots, but also a two-meter drop of 5 meters to the east of the roots. Here, a large stone is used to make a four-level platform, and the bottom three are 50 centimeters high. And so it becomes the seat. The sun does not shine here in summer, and as long as it does not rain heavily and rains for a long time, there is basically no rain on the ground. It is conceivable how dense these eight big banyan trees are and how big the canopy is.

The squad leader had Xiang Ming's invitation, and soon sat down at the stone table, and he was not polite, and started with everyone. However, because the students are 100% using a spoon, that is, the kind of galvanized iron spoon. Basically, there are no chopsticks, and Xiang Ming is also taking out a few pairs of disposable chopsticks. Don't say anything, eat first. When they are all seventeen or eighteen years old, they are very hungry, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are devouring. Why does the squad leader bring the cadres to work when he eats, it's not the money given by Xiang Ming to make trouble, is it too much, this is not the squad leader's shoulder bag when he eats, and there are also squad cadres as bodyguards around him, in fact, it is also a supervisor and a proof. In case the money is gone, the squad leader has no way to explain. Now pull a few class cadres together, not to mention safety, in case of an accident, you can still help but be responsible. "Bitter this poor baby" Xiang Ming thought to himself, and soon the dishes on the table would be wiped out, and his stomach would not be able to hold up. This is not only Xiang Ming is also torturous, took out two large bunches of lychees, and now the early-maturing lychees have begun to go on the market. Like a concubine smile, a big skin with thin skin, a small core, and a good taste. In the Tang Dynasty in ancient times, in order to win the smile of Yang Guifei, Tang Taizong rushed to send lychees from Lingnan for 800 miles to be the concubine's smile. At the end of April, the lychee varieties that matured and went on the market were in addition to the concubine smile and glutinous rice balls, in fact, there are many varieties of lychees, and people who are not from the place of origin can't tell the difference. The lychees eaten in the north are almost soaked in ice water, there is no way, the lychees are not easy to preserve, and they will spoil in two days. You can only use the incubator to put ice cubes to keep it fresh, and the lychee varieties trafficked from the south are not too good, and they are also raw, basically the worst lychees in the production area, and want to tile lychee, which is the kind of lychee produced by big trees, and these lychee cores are very cheap. Only when you go to the north can you make a profit, and when you transport from the south to the north, the freight plus the preservation fee is too high, often requiring 2 to 3 yuan.
