Chapter 109: The Cafeteria
She's the one who treats them as the base of the Star Sea. Although Wang Qingli guessed wrong, Jiang Li and Gu Jin didn't mean to explain.
It's better to be treated as someone from the Xinghai base than to tell them that the two of them came from the first base.
The first base and the Xinghai base are so far apart, and in this case, it is not possible to get by with a car and gas, and ordinary people will not run so far for no reason.
If it really were known that they were from Base 1, it would cause a lot of trouble.
Jiang Li was still thinking about this, and Gu Jin had already opened his mouth.
"Here are three catties of broken rice, which is our accommodation fee, but how to calculate the cost of this meal?"
Gu Jin said, unzipped a zipper on the mountaineering bag, and took out a cloth pocket from it.
Before Wang Qingli could speak, she laughed first.
"Then I'll take it, if you pay for the meal, you can ask Lao Wu after you finish it, that is, Wu Lixin, this has always been in charge of him, you can rest assured that our food is not expensive."
Old Wu, you lead them to sit and wait! ”
Wu Lixin agreed, and led Gu Jin and Jiang Li to find a place to sit down.
As soon as I sat down, I listened to Wu Lixin's happy words.
"Sister Wang in the canteen of our base, the skill of cooking, that's this!"
As he spoke, Wu Lixin gave a thumbs up.
"There are fresh seafood today, not to mention the taste of the food cooked, you can be regarded as a good taste today."
Obviously, he was saying that Jiang Li and Gu Jin had a good mouth, but Wu Lixin swallowed his saliva first, which made people think about it a little bit.
Jiang Li leaned over and asked curiously.
Do you often go to sea on your own? Wasn't it dangerous to go to sea during dense fog and polar daylight before? ”
"Why isn't it dangerous!"
Wu Lixin sighed as he spoke.
"In today's situation, it's easy to get lost, let alone at sea, even on land.
If you encounter waves or something, it will be even more dangerous, but what if you don't go to sea?
There are so many people in the base, so many mouths, and they always have to eat!
Don't look at our base chief as a woman, that's better than a man! Every time I go to sea, the base chief takes people with me.
Before they go, everyone has to sign, and if something happens to them and they can't go back, the rest of the base must take good care of their families.
Speaking of which, next time I'll be able to go to sea with me. ”
Speaking of going to sea, Wu Lixin seemed to have endless words, and his face was full of yearning and expectation.
"Lao Wu, every day you are thinking about going to sea!"
Wu Lixin smiled, not only did not refute, but also nodded.
"Then you're right, I want to go to sea! What's the point of being idle all day long in the base?
I'm not like you, I'm all wives and children who have hot kang heads, and I'm a lonely person, what else can I do if I don't break through? ”
"That's not what I said, even if you are alone, you don't let people go to sea back, this is what we discussed before.
Going to sea is for everyone, that's what everyone has to go! Except for the elderly and children, no one can sit back and enjoy the success in the base. ”
"Then doesn't the base chief still go every time?"
"Can you compare to the base chief?"
"Why can't it be compared."
Jiang Li listened to their conversation, and he could be considered to have a general understanding of how this base operated.
Fishing at sea is the main source of income for this base, but seafood is a big thing, no matter how full, you still need staple food!
How are staple foods solved? Doubts in his heart, before he could ask, Fu Xiaxia spoke.
"And what about your staple food?"
"You shouldn't pay much attention to the things outside, some of the seafood we caught will be exchanged for the Xinghai base, but because this place is close to the sea, the most important thing is seafood, and the food that can be exchanged is often unequal.
It is possible that a pound of seafood can only be exchanged for a little more than half a pound of grain, and several small bases in the vicinity do this. ”
"We really don't pay much attention to this aspect of things, we just want to find food, and we always think that the base official sent out to catch it."
Seeing that it was almost exposed, Gu Jin followed Wu Lixin's words and said, and after that, several people didn't ask about the things in the base anymore, they were afraid of revealing the stuffing, so they listened to Wu Lixin and the others talking.
After waiting for a long time, Jiang Li smelled the choking smell of chili peppers and the unique fresh aroma of seafood.
Not to mention, it tastes really good! Just smelling it makes your finger flutter.
Wu Lixin also looked at it at this time, and said with a smug face.
"How? Sister Wang's craftsmanship is good, right? ”
Fang Qingxun and Fu Xiaxia nodded at the same time.
"Good!"
Everyone else also agreed, and after hearing the answers of several people, the smile on Wu Lixin's face became brighter and brighter.
"You'll know how good it tastes when you taste it later."
The seafood was cooked relatively quickly, so he didn't wait too long before Jiang Li heard someone shouting to open the meal.
The people who were originally sitting in the seats, after hearing the words "open the meal", stood up one after another, took their respective lunch boxes and went to line up.
There are not many people in 200 people, and the three windows are eating at the same time, and the speed is still very fast.
Wu Lixin looked at Jiang Li and Gu Jin.
"Do you have lunch boxes?"
"Yes!"
Jiang Li and Gu Jin took out lunch boxes from their respective mountaineering bags, and then followed Wu Lixin to line up for dinner.
When queuing, Jiang Li also noticed that it was all the old people or children standing at the front, and the young and strong men and women were standing at the back, and several of them came relatively late and stood at the back.
Fu Xiaxia and Fang Qingxun were about to look forward to it, and Jiang Li was swallowing saliva all the time when he asked about the taste.
Wu Lixin looked at the appearance of Fu Xiaxia and Fang Qingxun, and comforted the two of them.
"You don't have to worry, the food is enough, even if you stand at the end, you can get it."
When the queue was in front and back, Jiang Li knew why Wu Lixin said this, the person who was cooking was holding a big spoon in his hand.
The spoon was in his hand like a scale, and the amount of food for everyone was exactly the same.
In this way, it can be made in portions, and it must also be made in portions, so naturally everyone can get a meal.
A spoonful of rice, a spoonful of stir-fried smorgasbord seafood, on top of the rice, still looks quite tempting.
Jiang Li sat down again with the lunch box, and then took a closer look.
The rice is multigrain rice, and there is white rice, black rice, and there seem to be some potatoes in it, but the rice can be seen to be broken rice.
It's been so long since the end of the world, and this small base can still eat such a meal, which can be said to be very powerful!
As for the spoonful of seafood hodgepodge, there are more types in it, some Jiang Li knows, and Jiang Li can't see what kind of variety, it should be fried with bean paste or hot pot base, the color is reddish, and the aroma is full.
