70. In the depths of the alley, there is no cave
After all, Wuxi is just a transit station for taking a plane, except for a meal of local snacks, other sightseeing and other things, Hao Dong followed the army, and there was no time.
Early the next morning, they got on the plane and went straight back to Beijing.
The ticket booked by Ergou is not a big flight, a discount ticket of three or four hundred, there is no meal, two hours, and it is not even noon when I get off the plane. However, the bright sun in the sky is already full of heat, fully expressing the enthusiasm of the imperial capital.
Hao Dong came all the way, and he always wanted to ask Qi Jue what was going on with the genetic modification. That's too sci-fi, I really don't care.
It's a pity that apart from him, both the queen and the second dog seem to be uninterested in this topic. Qi Jue himself was used to being expressionless, and he couldn't tell if mentioning it would make him angry. Hao Dong mustered up his courage several times, but the result was nothing.
Some topics are like this, the more they drag on, the more they can't talk about it, and now they have all gone from the southern capital to Beijing, and there is no opportunity to mention it again.
In the end, Hao Dong could only tell himself like an ostrich that since the queen and the second dog were not interested, he would say hello when he had the opportunity to be alone with Xiao Qiye. Of course, if there is such an opportunity, whether he can really ask it himself, this question is directly ignored by him.
Beijing is worthy of being the queen's land, Hao Dong didn't see who the queen was in contact with, but as soon as they left the terminal, an Audi quietly parked in front of them, and they looked like they had been waiting for a long time.
Hao Dong followed everyone into the car, and listened to the driver asking the queen for instructions: "I have accepted a few newcomers this year, and there is not much room at the end of the dormitory, is that little brother arranged it first?" β
The queen glanced in the rearview mirror and leaned back to her seat with her eyes closed: "No need, go over together, let them squeeze first." β
Hao Dong didn't react at first, but soon realized that the "little brother" they said was originally referring to him.
The Queen's headquarters is tucked away at the bottom of a small alley.
The alley is called Gut Hutong, which is really not big, as far as Hao Dong is concerned, it is a question whether the Audi they are sitting in can drive in.
As a result, the driver was highly skilled, closed the left and right side rearview mirrors, and rubbed the car into the case that the body was only ten centimeters away from the walls on both sides.
There seem to be some residents on both sides of the alley, but the doors and windows of each house are tightly closed, and no one walks around the alley. The car drove to the end, and a unit appeared in front of it, with an iron fence at the door, and a sign hanging next to it: Chengdong Research Institute.
Hao Dong muttered in his heart, this kind of name is not a serious unit at first glance, but there are guards and sentries in front of the door. Even though the queen herself was in the car, the sentry still strictly checked the driver's ID and license plate before finally letting him go. This made Hao Dong have an illusion, as if he had entered a terrible place!
Qi Jue and Ergou have been very accustomed to this kind of battle, Qi Jue has been sleeping since getting in the car, and he has not woken up yet; Ergou wasn't sleeping, but he kept tossing his phone, unloading all the circuit boards, and he didn't know what he was doing.
Seeing Hao Dong's entangled face, he couldn't help laughing: "Little mouse, don't worry, this is just now, let's stay when we go back, and it won't be so troublesome to get the pass." β
The pass that Ergou refers to is a kind of chip card that can be written repeatedly, and there is a kind of information recorded in it: the fingerprint of the cardholder.
When entering and exiting, there will be a special simple fingerprint verification device, and the time of entering and exiting the door will be registered when the information is matched, and the management is also very convenient.
Hao Dong followed everyone and finished receiving the pass in a daze, and the queen turned her head and walked out: "I have to go back to my house today first, and gather in the conference room early tomorrow morning." β
Although I have seen a lot of the queen's neatness, today's style of not bothering to explain even when he gets to the ground, turning around and leaving still surprises Hao Dong.
Ergou is quite used to it, picked up the big bag and threw it on his shoulder, and came to hook Hao Dong with one hand: "Let's go, let's go back to the room and put things away first." β
As a result, as soon as he stretched out his hand, Qi Jue suddenly appeared between him and Hao Dong, and asked Hao Dong seriously: "There are not many rooms, who do you live with?" β
Hao Dong felt that this was a little familiar, as if Xiao Qi Ye had asked himself like this, and at that time he felt that Xiao Qi Ye's implication was "don't bother me". But now, although Qi Jue still looks expressionless, Hao Dong feels as if he sees a trace of expectation in the other party's eyes?
No, this feeling is too unreal, Hao Dong definitely couldn't imagine that this kind of expression would appear on Xiao Qi Ye's face, and he was stunned for a while, not knowing how to answer.
Ergou was behind Qi Jue, and his height was not as good as Qi Jue, and he couldn't see the weird atmosphere between the two of them, and only heard Qi Jue's question. So he greeted very enthusiastically: "Don't worry, it's easy to come back to Beijing, Lao Tzu has activities arranged at night, my house is empty, you can live with a little mouse." β
As soon as Ergou's words fell, Qi Jue turned his head and walked to the other end of the house, and pulled Hao Dong with his hand. Ergou yelled anxiously behind him: "Hey, slow down! There's still a bag, I can't carry it alone! β
Qi Jue's house was adjacent to Ergou, and when Ergou arrived at the door of his house with three big bags on his shoulder, Hao Dong had already put down his things and was standing at the door of the house talking to Qi Jue.
Seeing the arrival of the second dog, Qi never said anything, glanced at him and went back to the house. Ergou is a spirit, how can he seem to have received a strange eye knife from Xiao Qiye's eyes?
After putting things away, the time had passed twelve o'clock. Ergou took out his wallet and estimated the expenses, and with a wave of his hand, the three of them went straight to the cheap shop. Anyway, if the queen is generally on her own land, as long as it is not too much expense, she will report it.
Ergou and Qi Jue seem to be familiar with each other, and Hao Dong's previous memories are gone, which can be regarded as the first time to come. Before I entered the door, I saw that there were many people, and I was dizzy just by looking at them. But at the same time, the rich fragrance is also very seductive.
The cheap shop is now also a chain, there are good and bad, this one should look good, the faΓ§ade is very atmospheric, the decoration is antique, as far as Hao Dong is concerned, it feels quite worth seeing.
Because there was no reservation, and it was a meal, the three of them waited for a while before it was their turn to get to the table.
When he started ordering, Hao Dong felt that he was already hungry just by watching others eat and smelling the fragrance. At this time, he doesn't pick anything, he can swallow anything. Qi Jue basically can't count on this kind of place, but fortunately, there are two dogs, and the concentration is better, and they can understand their respective preferences one by one on the menu, and finally order.
Waiting for the food to come up for a while, fortunately, in addition to the roast duck, the other bits and pieces are not slow, the three of them asked for six cans of beer, slowly eating and drinking, and when the roast duck is served, almost the meal has passed.
At this time, the peak of the crowd in the store has dropped slightly, at least the new arrivals don't have to wait to turn over the table, and the service is slightly better than before. They asked for a private room, and the waiter brought the roast duck in, and stayed for a while to give a simple guide to eating the roast duck.
Hao Dong basically didn't listen to the instruction, and his eyes couldn't take his eyes off the set of plates since the duck entered the house.
To say that this time-honored thing is indeed good, although the roast duck has been sliced, you can still see that the shape is perfect, not to mention that the room is full of fragrance as soon as you enter the house.
The roast duck utensils are also very distinctive, duck meat, cakes, green onions, cucumber strips, sauce, and dishes with different shapes, which are very beautiful at first glance.
The duck meat is grilled to a deep red and served in a porcelain bowl in the shape of a duck, and the cucumbers in green onion sauce are served on a small plate. The most special thing is the cake, the small steamer is served together, and it is still hot in your hand. The dough is very large when unfolded, and the translucent crust is a visual pleasure.
When the waiter withdrew, Hao Dong couldn't wait to roll a duck meat roll.
Sure enough, the skin is crispy and the meat is tender, hot with noodle sauce and green onions, and the unique burnt flavor of duck fat is mixed with the spicy spicy green onions, which has a refreshing feeling from the door of the brain all the way to the stomach. Cucumber strips can relieve the greasy feeling and make the taste of the duck roll more sweet and refreshing.
So before he could fully swallow a mouthful, Hao Dong's hand stretched out again.
Seeing Hao Dong eating happily, Ergou and Qi Jue naturally wouldn't sit stupidly. The second dog also gave a Hao Dong introduction while eating:
"This is a roast duck in the oven, a practice from the south. Relatively speaking, the duck fat is absorbed into the duck meat, and if you are not used to eating oil and water, you will feel greasy, and the taste is not too good. Let's go to Quanjude again in the evening, it is a hanging oven roast, that is the authentic Peking duck, you go back and compare, which one you prefer. β
After finishing speaking, he suddenly reacted: "By the way, little mouse, you can cook so many dishes, can you cook roast duck?" β
Hao Dong does know how to cook a lot of dishes, just the old Beijing style, bean juice, coke rings, burning, or whatever, but roast duck, each big brand has its own unique secret, this, he really can't: "I know how to roast duck on the electric stove." β
Ergou was also happy when he heard it: "It is said that all the takeaways in Quanjude are baked on the electric stove now, and I don't know if it's true or not, can you eat it?" Let's go back and buy one to test the water? β
Hao Dong was not too enthusiastic about Ergou's suggestion. He's a chef, but he's not a gourmet, and there's a difference here.
Although a chef must have the ability to taste the deliciousness of the dish in order to make it delicious, some high-level chefs can really tell how many ingredients are used in a mouthful of soup and what the ratio of ingredients is for each ingredient. But this skill is not available to every chef, as it also requires a high degree of taste sensitivity from the chef himself.
In fact, if you want to talk about it from this point, Hao Dong is quite skeptical about his cooking level. Because he found that he obviously still had a keen sense of smell, and he could probably smell what was missing in the dish, but if he tasted it, he might not be able to judge it accurately.
"I can't guarantee that."
As a result, the guy from Ergou didn't necessarily really have to distinguish anything, because he followed Hao Dong's words and said: "Then let's buy one and take it back to eat, it's not bad anyway." As far as I'm concerned, it's all delicious, and it's not a loss. β
After lunch, the three of them went back to the Chengdong Research Institute in the intestinal alley.
Hao Dong ate too much, yawned, and wanted to go back to the house to sleep, but who thought that the second dog would not give it, so he dragged him and walked in the opposite direction to the dormitory: "It's just a little active when you're full." β
Hao Dong didn't know why, but Qi Jue seemed to understand what Ergou was talking about, with a slight smile on his face, he followed behind them and walked in that direction together.
At the end of the road is a large building. One of the buildings is very distinctive, it is actually a small sports hall.
Hao Dong has been carrying weights for half a month all day, and now that he has the conditions, Ergou plans to check on him how much progress he has. If the effect is up to standard, you can consider increasing the load weight appropriately.
