Chapter 292: Microwave Oven
The officers' and soldiers' canteens were adjacent but independent of each other, and they walked through a separate passage.
Cahill greeted the Spark team at the door, but Andrew didn't greet him at the door.
Cahill also wore a ceremonial dress instead of a regular uniform or combat uniform, which made it rain and rain on the high distances, because they could not have brought military uniforms on this expedition.
"Welcome, please come in."
The welcome ceremony was very brief, and when they entered the door, they found that there were really many people in the officers' cafeteria, from the second lieutenant to the tallest Andrew. Colonel Marshall, there were thirty-six men in all, all dressed in ceremonial dresses, but as you can tell from the appearance of the military uniforms, the officers present were from several countries.
Colonel Andrew, dressed in the uniform of an officer of the United States Army, stood at a long dining table and smiled, "Welcome, welcome to our guests from afar." ”
The officers also applauded, and after the queue led by Pan Xin stood at the door, Li Yang said in a low voice: "Salute, captain doesn't need to." ”
Gao Yuan is also wearing a military uniform, but his military uniform has no military rank, but although Pan Xin's military uniform is a combat camouflage uniform, they are all hung up with military ranks at this time, that is to say, none of the Shenzhou soldiers present are higher than the rank of Colonel Andrew.
Gao Yuan walked up to Andrew, he stretched out his hand, and smiled, "Thank you." ”
Nothing else, Andrew seemed a little surprised, because he felt that he was enough of a man, and Takato looked better than him.
Andrew and Gao Yuan shook hands, and then the two separated, facing Pan Xin and the others.
Pan Xin and the others have already dispersed, and they are standing in front of Andrew in a scattered manner, because at this time, standing in line again, wouldn't it be for Andrew to review.
Pan Xin saluted and said loudly: "Hello, Mr. Colonel." ”
There are four people who do not have a military rank mark, namely Gao Yuan, Xinghe, Li Yang, and Yu Shunzhou, so they can not salute, but Pan Xin must salute, because he is a soldier and has a military rank, so when he sees an officer with a higher rank than himself, it is international etiquette to salute first.
Andrew returned the salute, and then he reached out and shook Pan Xin's hand, and patted Pan Xin's shoulder, looking very bold, looking much more relaxed than the serious and serious Pan Xin.
Obviously, these people were still having a desperate doomsday carnival last night, but today, this shelf is up.
"Today is a special day, all the NATO officers stationed at the Kandaha Air Base are here, and there are soldiers from Mi Lijian here."
The twelve Mi soldiers were divided into a bunch, looking at what kind of military uniform they had, and after Andrew finished speaking, they went through it together.
Of course, Pan Xin and they also have to return the gift.
"There are English soldiers."
Or salute in return.
"The soldiers of the Maple Leaf Country."
To introduce the military personnel of a country is to salute and return the salute.
"And the soldiers from Dewill, Holan, Belgium, and Maidan."
The sources of these soldiers are really quite mixed, but when Andrew introduced them, the distance between relatives was quite obvious, and several non-hardcore countries were automatically grouped into a bunch and introduced.
After the introduction, Andrew said enthusiastically: "Please sit, please sit, today I invite you to eat a delicacy from my hometown, Texas steak." ”
The two sides sat down, Gao Yuan and Andrew sat down at a table, and then it didn't take long for the chef in a military uniform with a chef's hat to bring in one plate after another.
Large kebab with fries piled on the side and tomato sauce on the plate.
But the supply must be tight here, at least ketchup, otherwise at least there should be bottles of ketchup on every table, not just a small pile on the plate.
"Please."
Andrew also spread out a napkin, and then tried to look civilized when eating, but Takato had also seen what starving people were like, so he knew that this meal was definitely an extremely rare and precious meal for Andrew.
Especially when eating fries with tomato sauce, looking at Andrew like that, it is a great treat for him.
Occasionally squinting at the other officers, you can see how the food is here.
Not starving, but definitely not good, that's the conclusion that came from a high distance.
A large piece of steak is not even an appetizer for Gao Yuan, and it is precisely because he is hungry every day, so Gao Yuan can eat very relaxed, anyway, he can't eat enough, so he should taste it.
Xinghe ate the steak, and then she was surprised and said, "It's delicious!" ”
After taking another bite, Xinghe nodded again and again: "It's really good, what is this?" Is Texas steak right? I want to remember that I like it. ”
Andrew couldn't understand what Xinghe was saying, but he looked at Xinghe eating with a very amazing look, which made him feel very happy.
Xinghe finished eating, and then she raised her head and said to Andrew very seriously, "Is there anything else?" ”
It's a shame!
Gao Yuan touched Xinghe with his leg below, and Xinghe immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing.
This time, Andrew was able to understand because Xinghe spoke English.
"Uh, we arranged pizza, pizza, delicious Italian pizza."
After saying it with a smile on his face, Andrew turned around and said, "Get this lady a pizza." ”
The steak was certainly not enough, so a pizza was prepared to top, and after Andrew finished speaking, a man in a chef's hat entered the room with a sealed plate, and then he stood down in front of the microwave that was sitting next to the restaurant, tore open the plastic bag, and put a frozen pizza in the microwave.
Takato looked at the microwave oven, because he was surprised that there were still frozen pizzas at this base, and as for the power supply, he knew it when he used the medical equipment last night.
Looking at Takato's surprised expression, Andrew laughed indistinctly.
With a ding, the chef turned on the microwave and brought a large pizza to the table.
Andrew laughed, "That's a microwave." ”
Although Gao Yuan's English is not very good, and he doesn't understand the word microwave oven, he probably understands it in combination with the context before and after.
"Haven't seen it, have you? The microwave oven is very convenient and very fast, it only takes a few minutes, and it is heated up with a ding. ”
Gao Yuan couldn't believe that there were such ignorant people in the world, but Andrew pointed to the pizza and said, "This is pizza, it's very delicious, it's processed and frozen, and then put it in that box......"
Andrew turned his head and pointed to the microwave oven and smiled: "It only takes three minutes, it's fine, isn't it amazing?" ”
Andrew said that Li Yang translated, and it could be seen that Li Yang was very helpless when he translated, and Gao Yuan was sincerely annoyed in addition to being helpless.
So Gao Yuan said to Li Yang in great surprise: "I'm the next Olympics!" No way? Tell me this? Didn't they use the microwave? Or else he deserves to brag to me? No way? Don't you even have a microwave oven in the United States? ”
After finishing speaking, Gao Yuan said to a few people on the adjacent table in a very surprised tone: "I'm leaning, have you seen it?" The people of the United States actually took the microwave oven as a baby, my God, we won't say anything about the frozen pizza as a treat, they even treat the microwave oven as a baby, this stupid X laughed at me. ”
Pan Xin and the others laughed cooperatively, smiling subtly and politely, and then looked at Andrew gently with eyes that were concerned about the mentally retarded.
A person next to Andrew whispered something quickly, Gao Yuan seemed to have just discovered that Andrew also had an interpreter by his side, so he immediately turned around, coughed lightly twice, and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you could understand, I thought you couldn't understand, uh, I'm sorry, I didn't hold back for a while." ”
Andrew looked surprised, and then he waved his hand at Gao Yuan again and again, and said, "No, no, no, it's not like that, we have microwave ovens, we have microwave ovens a long time ago, don't you don't have them?" You probably haven't seen it yet. ”
The translator had a look of incomprehension, and Andrew was still stunned, he looked really innocent, so Takato chose to believe that he was not provoking, but just really ignorant.
Andrew turned around and pointed to the microwave oven with both hands, and then he said with a little trepidation: "I don't think microwave ovens are rare, in fact, microwave ovens were invented by the United States, I just ...... I just thought you hadn't seen it. ”
Gao Yuan coughed lightly twice and said, "That, that microwave oven is produced by our country, and almost all household appliances are produced by us, so I thought you didn't know it, I'm sorry, it seems that both of us have some misunderstandings......"
At this moment, Gao Yuan heard someone behind him roaring angrily: "Fake oil! Bichi! Pay attention to your words, do you want to get beaten? ”
Gao Yuan looked back, only to see a black officer glaring at him.
