Chapter 106 Rhenium Mine
Mu Qingcheng peeled shrimp, sliced fish, washed chicken nuggets, soaked mushrooms, was quick and fast, and his actions were like the wind, which was pleasing to the eye, Helen leaned against the door, and gradually, a warm current gushed out from the bottom of his heart.
Yes, this kitchen hasn't been so lively for a long time, right? It seems that with Mu Qingcheng, the family is a little more angry, she thought that she had long been used to a cold and lonely life, but it wasn't until Mu Qingcheng appeared at her home that she found that in fact, such a home is very warm, very good, and she likes it a lot, and the corners of her mouth gradually floated a smile.
"Teacher Helen, go out, I have to stir-fry, the smoke will be very big, don't be smoked." Mu Qingcheng poured oil into the pot and admonished.
"I don't, I'm going to watch you do it!" Helen opened her mouth and said, but when the words came out, she felt that her tone was not quite right, so she quickly changed her words: "How embarrassing it is to keep you busy alone, and you don't let me help, then I have to supervise you!"
Mu Qingcheng glanced back speechlessly, at this moment, Helen was leaning lazily on the door frame, with a kind of little woman-like charm in her intellect, exuding an indescribable charm all over her body, as if she was tugging at his heartstrings, and forgot to turn back for a while.
Helen's face turned red suddenly, and then she said with a straight face: "I can't do it yet, the oil is already burning on the fire." ”
"Hehe~~" Mu Qingcheng smiled, turned around and poured the chicken pieces into the pot, turned over a few times, and said, "Teacher Helen, in fact, you look good when you smile." “
Helen only felt ashamed and annoyed, her cheeks were hot, and she couldn't help touching her hand, and her expression was a little trance.
......
A series of exquisite dishes were served, including salted prawns, stir-fried cod fillet, stewed chicken with mushrooms, shredded potatoes with green peppers, and a pot of hot and sour soup, a standard four-dish soup.
The staple food is Mu Qingcheng's own scallion oil egg pancakes, thin slices, golden in color, dotted with green onions, exuding an unbearable fragrance.
When the last piece of bread was ready, Professor Prologis stepped back with a little bit, smelled the fragrance that filled the room, and looked at the dining table again, and couldn't help but be stunned.
Helen smiled: "Dad, it's Mu Qingcheng's cooking today, you're blessed, go wash your hands." ”
GLP may be the reason why he doesn't smile often, although he barely squeezed out a smile to Mu Qingcheng, but it was very stiff, and then went to wash his hands and came out.
The father and daughter were still silent during the meal, but they ate much faster than yesterday, and the food on the table was almost swept away.
......
On the third day, Mu Qingcheng only made one dish, a pot stew in a farmhouse in northern Anhui, with pork ribs, beef, kelp, potatoes, vermicelli, braised white dry, Chinese cabbage and mushrooms, a total of eight main dishes, which are very suitable for winter consumption, in order to make this dish, I also specially bought a super large stew pot.
......
On the morning of the fourth day, Mu Qingcheng received a phone call.
"Hello Mu Qingcheng, I'm Catherine. ”
For Catherine, Mu Qingcheng didn't have a good impression, after all, he was not a person from the world, but it was Catherine who fished herself out of the FBI headquarters, and she owed her a favor, so she said politely: "Miss Catherine, hello." ”
"Do you have time during this time? I need your help. ”
"This ......" Mu Qingcheng thought of the agreement with Kelly, and hesitated: "Miss Catherine, I can't say it, because I promised a friend to go to San Francisco together, but the time is undecided, if you have something to say, you can help me." “
"Then I won't be polite to you, I'm going to Niger, have you heard? In a sub-Saharan country, which is the poorest and most chaotic place in Africa, I'll leave as soon as today, but I'm not very confident about my security forces, I need you, a master to protect my safety, it won't be long, if everything goes well, a week is enough, of course, if you really can't spare time, I can understand. “
This is tantamount to making himself a bodyguard, speaking from his heart, Mu Qingcheng is very unwilling, but he always remembers that he owes Catherine a favor, and the most difficult debt in the world is a favor debt, just take this opportunity to repay the favor, and then the two have nothing to do with each other.
"Miss Catherine, I need to talk to my friend, can you wait for me for a few minutes?"
"Alright, I'll wait for your call. “
After hanging up the phone, Mu Qingcheng called Kelly and explained the situation.
Kelly said: "Since Catherine personally invited you, you can go, I can't leave for the time being, after all, Christmas is not long, this is the busiest time of the year in the bureau, after Christmas, I will take a few days off and go to San Francisco with you." “
"That's good!"
Mu Qingcheng called Catherine again.
"Miss Catherine, I'm fine, when will I go, where will I find you?"
Catherine said, "I'll leave this afternoon, you'll be ...... Wait for me at the gate of Queens Community College and I'll pick you up. “
"Yes, Miss Catherine, goodbye. “
Mu Qingcheng couldn't stop, hung up the phone again, and called Karina first.
"I'm going to Niger with Catherine, I'll come to you at once, you can drive away, and we'll have dinner together at noon. “
"Well, you must pay attention to safety, I heard that the rebels in Niger are very strong, and not long ago, two American special forces soldiers died in Niger. “
Karina told her a thousand times before hanging up the phone.
Mu Qingcheng dialed Helen's phone again.
"Teacher Helen, I can't go to your house tonight, I'm going out with Catherine of the Morgan family for about a week. “
Helen's voice revealed a slight disappointment: "Then you go, come back and continue to study, pay attention to safety." “
......
After a phone call, Mu Qingcheng rushed to Queen's Community College first, waited for Karina, handed over the car keys, and had lunch together, and when it was almost two o'clock, they returned to the school gate, and within a few minutes, a Cadillac came and stopped, the door slowly opened, and Catherine greeted: "Mu Qingcheng, come up, let's go to the airport now." “
Mu Qingcheng got into the car, there was a circle of leather white seats in the car, luxurious and elegant, in addition to Catherine, there was also a woman, about thirty, wearing black-framed glasses, not very beautiful, but the whole person revealed a capable and rigorous temperament, and the figure was also very good.
The car started slowly, and Catherine also smiled: "Mu Qingcheng, thank you for helping me, let me introduce you, this is Judy, my assistant, who has been following me for several years." “
"Hello Judy. Mu Qingcheng greeted with a smile.
Judy looked cold, and said officially: "Mu Qingcheng, I have heard of you, you are very good at fighting, but good martial arts does not mean anything, this trip may be very dangerous, in order to ensure the safety of Miss Catherine, you have to listen to my arrangement throughout the whole process, you know?"
Mu Qingcheng suddenly felt very uncomfortable, and said with a sinking face: "Miss Judy, I think you have made a mistake, the reason why I participated is to repay Miss Catherine's favor, I am not the bodyguard of the Morgan family, I don't want to hear you order me in a commanding tone again." “
Catherine smiled and said: "Mu Qingcheng, don't mind, Judy has such a temper, in fact, you don't need to do anything, just follow me and protect my safety, it shouldn't make you embarrassed, Judy, you and Mu Qingcheng talk about the situation." “
Judy asked, "Mu Qingcheng, have you ever heard of rhenium?"
Mu Qingcheng muttered: "Rhenium is used in aero engines because of its high melting point and soft properties, and is an indispensable material for the manufacture of single crystal blades, but the reserves are extremely scarce. “
Judy nodded and said: "You are right, not long ago, Niger discovered a super-large rhenium mine, the purity is very high, and the expected reserves are about 2,000 tons......"
