Youth is like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, in December, the veteran was demobilized again, and Xu Rong became a reserve party member because he had not had an accident for a year and worked hard.

The cooking class has always been a "pension" territory, Xu Rong thought that if he stayed in the squad platoon as a veteran, it would be better to go to the cooking class to be demobilized in the third year. Now that he has lost his intention to participate in the border war, he wants to return to his hometown after three years of demobilization to join the torrent of reform and opening up and achieve his own career.

After more than a year of hard work, Xu Rong's body is obviously much stronger, and he has grown taller, and the six-pack abdominal muscles under his chest are what he is proud of. He found the director of the base and wanted the leader to transfer him to work in the cooking class.

"Okay, you kid is treacherous enough, I agreed to go to the cooking class, do you want to burn the fire or knead the steamed buns." The director quipped seriously.

"Report chief, I want to be a buyer."

"Obediently, I want to find a good job when I come up, I can't promise you this request, either go to the tofu room or go to the fire."

"Then I'll burn the fire, it's good for the gang to burn the fire."

The cooking class of the non-staple food base is very large, and it is responsible for the food of about 200 people, and the cooking soldiers of the general company are only about six people, but there are more than a dozen people here. Now the cooking squad leader has been demobilized, and the work of the cooking squad is taken care of by a third-year soldier who is a purchaser. He had long known that Xu Rong was not easy to mess with, and when he saw him come to the class to burn the fire, he didn't pay much attention to him, as long as he didn't have an accident.

The more he didn't want to have an accident, the more he would have an accident, Xu Rong thought that the work of burning the fire was okay, and with the blower driving, the coal could be fully burned, so he learned from those old firefighters. Throw in a shovel of coals and read a few pages of a villain book.

However, if you don't study, you can't do a good job, Xu Rong's fire is okay with noodles, if you cook a big pot of rice for more than 200 people. But it didn't work. When the first pot of rice he cooked came out of the pot, the soldiers in the non-staple food base all complained, saying that the rice was "sandwiched", and they were almost the ones in the cooking class.

The cooking squad leader had no choice but to replace Xu Rong from the position of burning the fire and replace him with an experienced veteran, whose new job was kneading steamed buns.

Xu Rong was very happy about this work, firstly, he did not need to ferment flour, and secondly, he did not need to exert too much effort. As long as the flour is put on the flour table, Xu Rong will follow the cat and the tiger. Follow the example of others and knead the steamed buns. Because Xu Rong is very strong now, the steamed buns he kneaded are very good, and the soldiers can eat them, which steamed buns are made by Xu Rong, which makes Xu Rong very proud.

After working as a steamed bun worker for more than a month, Xu Rong's work was transferred to "cutting piers", in order to let him practice knife skills well, the squad leader deliberately put all the work of cutting vegetables. All handed over to Xu Rong to be responsible. Xu Rong didn't have any opinion at all, because he was really uncomfortable, and he originally thought that after getting off the cooking class, he could live an alternative life. However, it is a wish, but it is a matter of staying all day without chickens and thinness, and there is nothing to do. Now, a lot of potatoes. became Xu Rong's venting object, "Shredded potatoes, potato chips." diced potatoes, potato wedges, plus mashed potatoes". The whole soldiers begged Xu Rong.

"Brother Rong, can you cut less, you see we are all potato people."

Even the director is worried about eating potatoes all day long, as long as the meal time comes, he will think of the potatoes that Xu Rong has changed the knife, which is really a disturbing thing.

Due to the good performance of the cooking squad leader, the non-staple food base decided to let him go to the army to study, and after studying, he could get a second-level chef certificate, and he could naturally turn into a volunteer soldier at the end of his life.

The director of the base considered the practical problems of the cooking class and thought that Xu Rong could temporarily act as an agent, so he found Xu Rong and asked him if he wanted to be the leader of the cooking class.

"Of course I think about it, it's better to manage others than to let people take care of me, let me be the squad leader, and I will do a good job, you can please."

Since the original squad leader left, only Xu Rong and the purchaser were third-year soldiers, and the others were all second-year soldiers and newly assigned recruits. Xu Rong saw that it was easy to deal with the difference in military age, so he set a few rules, when he was not there, the work in the class was responsible for the purchaser, if anyone did not obey the management, he could talk to him privately alone, which meant private PK.

The people in the class have long known that Xu Rong has a history of beating and scolding soldiers with corporal punishment, who will provoke this new squad leader, everything is asked in advance, and Xu Rong is confessed, as long as he doesn't speak, everyone will not dare to do it, over time, Xu Rong thinks that he is the boss in the cooking class, and everyone has to listen to him.

After becoming the squad leader, Xu Rong's wake-up time has also changed, it used to be to get up at five o'clock in the morning to make breakfast for the whole base, and now he has handed over the work of leading the class to the buyer. Although that man is also a third-year soldier, his arms are not as "thick" as Xu Rong's, so he naturally has to obey him.

Seeing that someone had done their own work, Xu Rong's wake-up time became half past seven. Because this is the time when the rice soup and steamed buns are cooked. Whenever he got up, a recruit would bring him a bowl of rice soup that had just come out of the pot, two hot steamed buns, and a plate of the best pickles. After Xu Rong ate, he washed the clothes, sorted out the clothes, and waited in front of the canteen, waiting for all the personnel of the base to come here to eat.

Since becoming the leader of the cooking squad, Xu Rong's cigarettes have never spent his own money, and he has a great addiction to smoking, ranging from one pack a day to two packs a day, all of which are paid for by the buyer. Whenever Xu Rong said to the purchaser, "How much is this cigarette, it will be deducted from the allowance at the end of the month." ”

The buyer always says, "You don't have much money, and if you buy something, you will quote more than one and a half cents, and your cigarette money will come out." ”

"Don't do this next time, the impact is not good." Although Xu Rong said this every time, he never took out a penny from his pocket.

Not only that, but there must be cigarettes and wine, and Xu Rong would always receive two bottles of good wine from the vendor who delivered soy sauce and vinegar to the cooking class. These people also know that in the cooking class, Xu Rong is the boss, and they are obedient to him, and they can only do it in the long run by sending these seasonings. If Xu Rong is unhappy one day, he will change to another hawker, and they will be unemployed. After all, more than 200 people have a large amount, Xu Rong also does not refuse, as long as someone comes to deliver, he dares to accept it, he thinks this is normal, whoever is the cooking squad leader will do this.

The non-staple food base has a color TV. After dinner, a new activity was added, that is, to watch "News-Simulcast", Xu Rong still loved it at first, but because of the base management, style, and watching the news, each squad will sit in a sitting position, which makes Xu Rong very unbearable. He is the class leader of the cooking class, so he naturally has to sit at the front of the class and come back every time he comes back after watching the news. His waist hurt to death, and he simply didn't go after the worst of the time, and he stayed in the cooking class to take care of the family, and the work of practicing sitting posture was handed over to the purchaser, who made him the "No. 2" of the cooking class.

There was a new political coordinator at the base, and he couldn't see Xu Rong watching the news for a few days, so he found Xu Rong and criticized and educated him.

"Squad Leader Xu, you can't do this. Watching the news is a political task, you have to participate, anyone can watch the housekeeping, you have to go at night. ”

"Chief. If you look at the TV at the base, 20 inches is not small, but if 200 people watch it together, it will be too small. I'm not idle in the class, you see, my newly bought radio. Diamond brand, news broadcast and TV synchronization, I listen to it every day, or you test me. Xu Rong argued.

"It's like a bit of human talk, remember to watch TV when you have time."

"Definitely, definitely."

After Xu Rong became a drinker, he was not very satisfied with the snacks. Now the breeding project of the base has also come up, and there are hundreds of fat pigs and countless chickens and ducks. Every time the class went to watch TV, Xu Rong would take out some ingredients and open a "small stove" for himself. ”

I remember the first time, because Xu Rong couldn't cook, as soon as others went out, he carried a large piece of pork half out of the storage room. This meat is very heavy, there are seventy or eighty catties, after Xu Rong changed the knife, put it into a pot of more than ten catties of soybean oil, and fried a large pot of meat. But after frying, Xu Rong vomited immediately after tasting it, and in order not to let others find out, he wanted to "destroy the evidence" and pour out the meat. Unexpectedly, at this time, the assistant came to the cooking class to check the post, and saw Xu Rong busy alone, thinking that he was preparing for the next day's food.

"Squad Leader Xu, are you busy so late, obediently, so much meat, how can you eat it tomorrow."

"Braised pork, open meat for everyone."

The assistant is also a layman for stir-frying, and after reading the news, he praised Xu Rong, saying that he has to serve the whole base during his rest time, and he is simply an unknown old scalper.

The other people in the cooking class listened, their noses were almost crooked, they knew their squad leader best, this guy usually didn't do any work, he wanted to eat and drink, he knew everything, and he didn't know what he was doing this time.

The person who stir-fried vegetables in the cooking class is a two-year soldier, Xu Rong has a good relationship with him, the reason is that he will make more good dishes for Xu Rong from time to time, of course, Xu Rong's ass wants this person to wipe it, it is strange to say, these unpalatable pork, after several changes by the stir-fry man, at noon the next day, the cadres and soldiers of the whole base ate a rich lunch - altar meat.

As the income of the non-staple food base increased day by day, the director raised everyone's food standards, and instructed Xu Rong to ensure that there were three chickens for everyone to eat every day. Xu Rong was overjoyed when he heard this. He cut the heads and feet of the three chickens and left them, and after the oil was over, they were sealed with wax paper, and when they were gathered together on Sunday, the stir-fry sauce of these ingredients was made, not to mention how delicious they were. At that time, Xu Rong will summon a few good squad leaders to come to the cooking class, take out the good wine offered, and everyone will have a "dinner." ”

Naturally, the squad leader invited by Xu Rong didn't say anything, but there are dozens of squad leaders in the whole base, and there are always those that Xu Rong didn't invite. The director announced to everyone that it was a ration of three chickens a day, but after a month, there was no trace of the chicken head and chicken feet, so they naturally had an opinion.

When the opinions were fed back to the assistant, he thought that this matter was not a trivial matter, so he found the people in the cooking class to check them one by one, and finally determined that it was Xu Rong's problem, and Xu Rong's good days came to an end.

Xu Rong was dealt with by the base due to problems such as corruption in life and greed for small and cheap things. Xu Rong's position as squad leader was cancelled, the probationary period for party members was extended for half a year, and a demerit punishment was given. In this way, Xu Rong fell from the sky to the ground, he left the cooking class and returned to the squad platoon. Fortunately, the squad leader of his class is Xu Rong's buddy who is good at it, and he has become a veritable three-year veteran.

One day, the "Border Operations Propaganda Group" came to the non-staple food base to make a report. When Xu Rong heard the heroes on the stage generously tell about their heroic deeds, the heroic spirit that had been quiet in his heart for more than two years was rekindled. Before they could finish speaking, he stood up and said, "I'm going to the front line, I still have my brother at home, I meet the requirements, I also worked in the cooking class, you can take me away." ”

The heroes on the stage have confused Xu Rong's "sudden attack", they have made so many reports, they have never encountered this situation, and they don't know what to do.

"Xu Rong, sit down first, and talk about your affairs later." The co-opter stabilized the situation.

But the director of the base on the side was very proud, and the words in his heart were, "See, who said that there are no good soldiers in the non-staple food base, Xu Rong is a good person, just rely on this, and give me a long face." ”

After the report meeting, each squad and platoon successively wrote an "application for joining the war." This was very common at that time, and most of them were written with red pen water, one is to prove that the heart is red, and the other is to write "blood book".

Xu Rong also wrote his own "blood book", but he didn't use a red pen water, he bit his index finger and middle finger to write, of course, these can be learned in movies and villain books. Among the "blood books" in the whole base, only Xu Rong wrote it with his own blood. He wanted to show the leaders that he really wanted to go to the front.

The director and assistant members agreed with Xu Rong's performance, after all, Xu Rong's hand was the glory of their base, and they finally went to the division to invite Xu Rong to participate in the battle, and only Xu Rong participated in the entire base.

Soon, Xu Rong packed up his backpack according to the regulations, and sent him to the troops heading to the front line by the jeep at the base. This was a combat company, and when the company commander and instructor heard that Xu Rong was a cook, they were all angry and happy. There are all new things in these years, and the guys have to go to the front. Anyway, there aren't many more of them, so let's go together when we come. In this way, Xu Rong stepped on the military column to the south without the consent of his family, and he was greeted by a hard battle, will our Xu Rong be like Guo Kaiqing back then, we will wait and see. (To be continued......)
