Chapter 0019 Where to go
After sending off the eldest brother, Lu Changhua said hello to his mother and turned around and went to the drying field.
It's starting to snow, and it's time for Lu Changhua's moldy wheat to be brought back.
Xiong Bao wanted to follow Lu Changhua alive or dead, but he couldn't, so he had to ruthlessly tie Xiong Bao in the courtyard, so that he could rest assured.
When the director of the drying field saw Xiao Lu coming, he shouted dissatisfiedly: "Xiao Lu, you kid is really good, you don't care if you buy wheat and still dry it?!" ”
"Who said it doesn't matter, I come every day."
Lu Changhua responded, and went to the duty room of the drying field.
After entering the winter, there are basically no people in the drying field except for the grain, and you can only come to the duty room to find people.
Because only the duty room has a stove, burning coal.
The duty room is actually the guard room, next to the gate of the drying field.
Every day, the people who come to the drying field to do errands and those who do odd jobs will be crowded in the guard room, smoking, chatting and farting.
If you can find a job, you can do it for a while, and it doesn't matter if you can't find it, you can talk for a morning, and when you are hungry, you will disperse.
Lu Changhua opened the door, and a large stream of heat came to his face.
The heavy smell of dry tobacco from the toad's head hit the head.
The director of the drying field also came in and said to Lu Changhua: "Hurry up, find someone to pull your broken wheat away, I will dump it in two days, don't delay it." ”
"I can't miss it."
Before they could finish speaking, someone interjected and asked, "Fill it with wheat?" I got it. ”
"What are you coming, we have already said it, I don't believe you to ask."
Of course, the few people who were drying wheat with Lu Changhua had to declare their sovereignty, and this work has long been mastered, don't worry about it!
"What, director, lend me some sacks, how can I pack them without sacks?!"
"Okay, let Xiao Sun get it for you in a while, I can tell you, be quick, don't delay the big thing."
"Don't worry."
The director of the drying field explained clearly, and then swept the people in the house with his eyes, turned around and went out.
The door slammed shut, and everyone raised their voices with a bang and shouted loudly.
"Hurry up and bagged it, and I'll go find the car."
"Okay."
The men got up and went out, looking for sacks, looking for sacks, bagging for bags.
Lu Changhua went to the team headquarters to find Lao Lu out of the car.
In this place of the farm, many things are human favors, you help me and I will help you.
But as soon as you mention money, it hurts the peace.
Where can Lao Lu ask for money? Getting out of the car is a matter of gas, and it is not your own money, and you can also settle your favor.
In the afternoon of the same day, Lao Lu drove a rubber-tyred truck and pulled a trailer to the drying field.
In front of the grain hoarding in the drying field, there were already piles of sealed sacks, each bag was swollen.
"Okay, it's going fast! How many more? ”
"There's not much, but I can still hold more than a hundred bags."
The musty smell in the grain hoard was quite strong, and I choked my nose as soon as I entered.
"How many are these?"
"Just checked, three hundred and eight."
"It's hard work, drink after work."
"Okay."
At noon, the stevedores went home to deal with a mouthful, and at three o'clock in the afternoon, the bagging was completed.
Lao Lu's car should be loaded with at least two cars.
After loading the first car, Lu Changhua took three people to the reservoir with the car.
The wheat was unloaded into the storehouse, and the empty storehouse was suddenly crowded.
Lu Changhua waited in the reservoir duty room, and Lao Lu and the stevedores returned to the drying yard and loaded the remaining wheat into the truck.
By the time they reached the reservoir, the moon hung in the night sky.
In the duty room, Lao Lu and Lu's mother were cleaning up the dinner table in the room.
Xiong Bao had been by Lu Changhua's side for a long time, busy in and out, and felt that it was the busiest now.
Han Ying was also busy.
Since Han Ying knew that Lu Changhua had contracted the reservoir, she also took the time to come a few times.
Lu Changhua was busy reading, and he didn't have time to talk to her more, which made the little girl feel a little lost.
Today is a good opportunity.
The Lu family wanted to invite the driver and stevedore to dinner, and she heard about it in the cafeteria.
Lu Zaigao stir-fried vegetables in the cafeteria, put them in a lunch box, and took them to the reservoir.
Han Ying naturally followed suit.
Mother Lu couldn't close her mouth happily.
Lu Changhua instructed the stevedores to send the sacks into the kitchen first, let the stove and stove be opened, and put more than 100 bags in, and the rest could only be placed in the office.
Originally, he wanted to put it in a room with a fire kang, but he considered having both a fire wall and a fire kang, and he was afraid that the wheat would have a fever again, and then he would be in trouble.
It can only be temporarily stacked in the office.
Anyway, he's the only one in the office now.
After unloading the car, Lao Lu turned off the fire and washed his hands and ate with the stevedores.
Although it was November, the snow had fallen and the weather was freezing, but these stevedores were steaming.
From the outside to the back room, it is as warm as spring.
The table was full of appetizers.
The first snack in the Northeast is fried peanuts.
This dish is a must-have for drinking.
The second course is extremely affordable, and it also satisfies cravings, marinated pork head.
The meat slices are cut very thinly, all the photos are translucent, the slices are the same, the thickness is uniform, and then mixed with coriander, chili red oil, tsk, that is called a fragrant!
The third dish belongs to the indiscriminate filling of the number, braised silver carp.
Originally, it was to braise the big carp, but it was not nothing, so it could only be filled with silver carp, but Lao Lu's craftsmanship was excellent, and he still tasted the taste of the big carp.
The fourth course is a home-cooked dish of vegetarian fried shredded potatoes.
I don't know where Lao Lu found the green peppers, the shredded potatoes are translucent, boxy, and the shredded green peppers are the same as the shredded potatoes, fried together, yellow and green, full of spring.
The fifth course is a homemade dish.
White Lotus. This is the name that Lao Lu himself chosen.
Chinese cabbage to the leaves to keep help.
Split three layers in one piece.
Take the middle layer and keep it.
With the sheet knife method, the slices are thin under the slice, with their own serrated edges.
Mix out the meat filling with a secret method, use the sliced cabbage slices as the skin, rotate it into a conical shape with an opening at the top and a cone, and put the meat filling into it.
Put it in the cage drawer and steam it, then remove it from the pan and put it on a plate.
The jagged white lotus flowers on the plate are in full bloom, and the meat filling is delicious and attractive.
"Master Lu, with your craftsmanship, it's amazing! It's a pity not to open a restaurant! ”
The crowd drooled and praised in unison.
The sixth course is even more absolute.
It's called falling snow.
This is also what Lao Lu figured out by himself.
After the eggs are beaten, stir in the oil pan until the eggs are shredded and wound around the wooden sticks.
Serve on a plate with a stick and fried egg and sprinkle with sugar.
Like snow falling on the earth, mountains and rivers covered with silver!
A bottle of Yuquan wine was placed on the table.
"Come on, come on, everyone has worked hard, drink some wine to warm up!"
Lao Lu, as a parent, must come forward to say hello.
Xiao Lu can only take a back seat on this occasion. One is that he can't drink well, so he can't accompany the wine. The second is that Lao Tzu is here, how can it be his son's turn to speak? !
Lu's mother and Han Ying and Zhang Luowan also sat next to Lu Changhua and helped greet the guests.
When everyone saw the enthusiasm of the Lu family, they let go of eating and drinking.
Xiong Bao felt the warm atmosphere of the scene, circled around everyone, and finally found an opportunity by it, lowered his head and got under the table, honestly at Lu Changhua's feet, waiting for the owner to remember that there was a self under the table.
Everyone pushed their glasses and changed their glasses, a bottle of wine went down, and everyone was drunk.
Lao Lu pulled these drunks up and went back to the family area.
Lu's mother and Han Ying cleaned up the mess, and Lao Lu looked at the dinner table.
"Dad, do you have something on your mind?"
"I'm afraid the canteen will be disbanded after the New Year."
"Oh? Says who? ”
"It was Director Han who told me to prepare early."
Old Lu sighed, "What can I prepare?" ”
"Dad, that's a good thing."
"Is this still a good thing?"
"Of course it's a good thing."
Lao Lu looked at his youngest son with a puzzled expression.
"Dad, it's better to disband, and you can use your expertise to make money."
"Making money? You mean to open your own restaurant? ”
"yes."
"Well, you're thinking simply. Let's open a restaurant on the farm, whoever gives you money is on credit, where will you get so much money at that time? Don't you have to open the yellow yet?! ”
"Besides, it's a hassle to ask for accounts. I inquired, and I also knew the owners of several restaurants in the field, and they all said that it was too difficult to ask for accounts, and some of them owed debts for several years, and they couldn't turn their faces with others. Alas, how difficult! ”
"Dad, didn't you want to go to the city to drive?"
"In the city? How much does it cost to be able to drive? Besides, there are a lot of rent, vegetable money, material money, labor money, all of which are a lot! ”
"Dad, first of all, if you open a restaurant on a farm, will there also involve these costs?"
"That's right."
"Let's go into the city to earn cash, and no one is on credit, which is the biggest benefit."
Lu Changhua wrenched his fingers and settled accounts with his father.
"Wherever you open a restaurant, these costs are indispensable. It's just that the rent is more expensive than the farm, that's for sure. ”
"Then there is the cost of ingredients, which is also a big head."
Lu Changhua smiled at his father.
"Dad, your son raises fish, you open a restaurant specializing in fish, and I will supply it to you, are you still afraid that I will overcharge you?!"
"Yes, but will anyone come to the restaurant that specializes in fish?"
Although Lao Lu felt that his son's idea was novel, he was not sure whether it would work or not.
"Dad, have you ever heard of the saying that one trick is eaten all over the world?"
"Is it a trick to beat the world?"
"Yes."
Lu Changhua explained to his father.
"We can't do business perfectly. No one is perfect, let alone a business? ”
"Our restaurant specializes in making fish, one way to eat it in summer, and another way to eat it in winter."
"For example, hot and sour fish in summer, fish hot pot in winter."
"In this way, the winter and summer dishes will change, customers will have a sense of freshness, and business will naturally not worry."
"As for the question you said about whether anyone will come to eat, you can rest assured, as long as it is distinctive, delicious, and affordable, you will not worry about business."
"At least it's better than the business on the farm, with more customers."
"This kind of restaurant specializing in fish, let's call it Yufu."
"Oh, yes!"
Old Lu blinked and suddenly slapped his thigh.
"yes, I didn't think of that."
It was as if he had opened the joints.
"I open a fish house, you supply me with fish, your fish is sold, my restaurant is also opened, the best of both worlds."
"Well, that's doable."
As she was talking, Mother Lu and Han Ying came out of the kitchen, and the two mixed a small pot of leftovers and steamed buns, and handed them to Xiong Bao, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time.
Seeing this, Xiong Bao whimpered, lowered his head and rushed to the rice bowl.
"Uncle Lu is going to open a restaurant in the city?"
Han Ying stared at her sparkling eyes.
"Ah, there's this idea."
Lao Lu blinked, not understanding what Han Ying meant.
"I want to follow you to open my eyes!"
"Huh? Can you pull it down, can your dad agree? ”
Lao Lu glanced at Han Ying and said, "The canteen is disbanded, and you have a place to go." Follow me to the city, there are those who don't have a meal. Your dad arranges an iron rice bowl for you, isn't it better than following me to smoke oil?! ”
Lao Lu didn't take Han Ying's words seriously at all.
Director Han has two children, one son joins the army in the army, and there is only such a girl by his side, can he be willing to let his daughter go to the city to fool around?!
Impossible.
"Uncle Lu, don't worry about this. I just want to go to the city and see a lot, right?! ”
"But this work can't be joked, and it's too late to regret it if you miss the opportunity. I don't agree with you going. ”
Lao Lu knew that Director Han felt sorry for his daughter, and he would definitely not let her go.
"Uncle Lu, I'll do my father's work, you just say you want me, right?"
Han Ying's temper is quite strong, and she won't look back if she sees it.
"I heard from your dad that he plans to let you go to the clinic and become a nurse first. What a job that is?! An iron rice bowl for a lifetime. Others don't have this opportunity to go, you have to cherish it! ”
"I don't want to be a nurse."
Han Ying pouted with a look of grievance.
"You're still too young! Now you are not sensible, uncle doesn't blame you. Go back and listen to your father's arrangement, he is good for you, don't let him down. Your dad is old, just one of your daughters by his side, and your brother is still fighting in the southwest, so let your dad save some snacks. ”
No matter what Han Ying said, Lao Lu just didn't agree.
If he dared to agree to Han Ying to go to the city as a waiter, Lao Han was afraid that he would break off his friendship with him.
Han Ying saw that she couldn't make sense of Lao Lu, so she set her eyes on Lu Changhua.
"Don't look at me, I don't count."
Lu Changhua didn't have time to hide, how could he dare to pull Han Ying to his side.
"I'll go back and tell my dad!"
Han Ying went home angrily and went to Director Han to do work, as for the result, Lu Changhua didn't have to think about it, Lao Han was reluctant to beat her, and he had to scold her for three days.
Seeing Han Ying leaving in a huff, Lu's mother hurriedly greeted her, took out one of the electrical appliances that she was usually reluctant to use, and chased after her with a flashlight.
"Girl, take the flashlight, it's dark and the road is slippery, be careful."
Han Ying took the flashlight, said goodbye to Lu's mother, and left alone.
Lu Changhua saw that his father had figured it out, and he was also happy in his heart.
In his previous life, the old man opened a restaurant on the farm, and it was embarrassing that such a good craft turned yellow.
Now, Lu Changhua has opened Lu Zaigao's thinking, and going to the city to find a way out is always more than holding back on the farm.
