Chapter 33 Cabbage in the Soup
There's no way around it. Because, Uncle Xiang was woken up by the knock on the door that delivered eggs.
"Xiao Ming, my God, why do you buy so many eggs! What are you doing with so many bottles and cans?"
This house is too small to fit!
Li Qingming patted his head, this is troublesome, and he still doesn't think about it enough. I wanted to research this dish, but I forgot that my place was too small.
"Uncle, can you help me rent a house? This is indeed too small, I want to research new dishes!" Li Qingming said, "But after I bought so many things, and I still have two mobile phones, there are only more than 1,200 yuan left in this card, is it enough?"
Uncle Xiang was stunned. He worked hard for more than half a year, and in the blink of an eye, there were more than 1,200 left. Oh my god, it's going to cost too fast. However, since he handed over the money to Li Qingming, he would not ask how Li Qingming would spend it.
"Okay, you must be very tired. You rest first, and I'll go find a house. There are still a lot of houses around here!" Uncle Xiang hurriedly put on his clothes and ran out.
It didn't take long for Uncle Xiang to rent a first-floor house nearby. Because I have confidence in this chicken soup, I also have confidence in Li Qingming. So this time, Uncle Xiang also made the most extravagant act in his life and rented a house of almost 50 square meters.
"Xiao Ming, look, this is our new home in the future, 53 square meters! There are two bedrooms, and a bathroom! We can also take a bath every day in the summer!"
Before that, the environment was extremely poor. In a room of more than ten square meters, how can there be a place to take a bath. Everything is to go outside to settle. And this summer, it is extremely hot, and the room is as uncomfortable as it is. But it can't be helped, you sleep outside, you don't worry about thieves, you are poor, and there can be no thieves. But there are a lot of mosquitoes. That's not to mention a night, even if you stand outside for more than ten minutes, you can't stand it, with a bag.
Now, it's much more comfortable and spacious. And most importantly, you can take a shower anytime, anywhere. Seeing this room, Uncle Xiang suddenly burst into tears. If it weren't for the bad environment before, maybe his daughter wouldn't have had that change of mind.
It's terrible to be poor!
"Uncle, don't worry, in the future, we will not only live in a bathroom, but also a special bathroom, as well as a swimming pool! We will live in a villa!" Li Qingming patted the uncle on the shoulder and said softly.
Uncle's excitement, he can understand. It's life with hope.
Uncle's tears, he understands better. There is such a daughter in the family, it is a pity, a pathetic and a pitiful thing.
"Uncle, and me!" Li Qingming said with a smile, "Our uncle and nephew depend on each other!"
"Yes, Uncle still has you!Okay, don't mention this, move quickly!" said Uncle Xiang wiping away his tears and smiling.
Subsequently, after a period of busy work, the two of them moved all the daily necessities, the eggs they bought today, and all kinds of bottles and cans into this new home!
After some washing, both of them stood in their new home refreshed. It's a great feeling to take a shower.
"By the way, Xiao Ming, I have taken all the money in this card, I paid a month's rent, a month's deposit, and there are more than 300 yuan left! I'm afraid this is not enough!" Uncle Xiang took out the card and the rest of the cash.
The cost of this daily chicken soup is more than 130 yuan, and today is the second day, and the ingredients for the chicken soup have been bought. There are five days left, which is not enough.
"Otherwise, I'll return my phone. I'm a bad old man, what kind of mobile phone do you use!" Xiang said, pointing to his unopened phone case.
Li Qingming shook his head.
"Uncle, a mobile phone is a must. Without mobile phones, we are not easily connected and disconnected from the world. We have to ask for cell phones. As for saying that the cash is not enough, I have a way to solve it. Li Qingming said calmly, "But the remaining 300 yuan, I still have use." Uncle, do you know where you can buy these things?"
Li Qingming took out a list. Before that, he went to the vegetable market and didn't see it, so he came back.
Uncle Xiang took the order and smiled awkwardly.
"This, the uncle is illiterate. Say it!" Uncle Xiang glanced at the list and said helplessly.
"Uncle, do I need white lime, tea, salt, flour alkali, yellow powder, plant ash, loess, rice husks, etc.?" asked Li Qingming.
The uncle muttered a few words and nodded.
"I've written them down, all of these things! I don't know what this alkali is, I'll ask. "Uncle Xiang went out with the sack.
Li Qingming began to make chicken soup at home.
This is bigger than before, and this chicken soup is much more comfortable. Before, I was making chicken soup in a small room, and I was as aggrieved as I was. Now that people can sit comfortably, it feels so much better. This body is refreshing, and the chicken soup is more energetic.
In the process of boiling chicken soup, Li Qingming also turned on his mobile phone and learned about the world through the Internet. To put it simply, it's no different from the world he was in before, and basically everything he should have is there. The only thing missing is food and Chinese culture. As for why this is so, he also searched. The answers given by the world's search engines are still very vague. It is said that mankind experienced a catastrophe, that is, a cataclysm, after which many resources were in short supply, and finally came out under the leadership of human leaders. However, the world seems to be lacking a lot, and there is a certain fault line in civilization.
No matter how much more content you have, you won't be able to search for it. But this search engine, he is quite familiar with, it is actually called 'Nuwa'. This is a mythical figure in Chinese culture in the past.
Then, Li Qingming checked the news about this chicken soup for the soul. It's a sensation indeed. However, this sensation is only among the people at the bottom. Many netizens tout this, but most of those white-collar workers disdain. As for the higher levels, it is completely unheard of.
As for the news media, there are occasional reports. However, this kind of report is a little bit the size of a tofu block. After all, the food in the slums, or chicken soup, who will care.
In this regard, Li Qingming smiled. I don't care. The less people pay attention, the better. That way, he will be able to earn a few more days. Otherwise, if the whole people pay attention to it, the secret of this chicken soup will not be kept.
Therefore, Li Qingming couldn't wait to come up with a new dish. A new dish with an exclusive secret recipe!
At this time, Uncle Xiang came back with a large bag and a small bag.
"Xiao Ming, except for the flour alkali, I really didn't buy it, but I bought the rest! What are you going to do?" the uncle asked.
Li Qingming smiled slightly.
"Cabbage in soup!" Li Qingming spat out four words.
