In the courtyard of the front gate, the stupid pillar and the patriot and the people who rushed over after work as before, before they entered the courtyard, they saw two cars parked outside the courtyard gate.

immediately guessed that it might be Chu Xiangqian who came back.

Patriotism and love for the people were naturally overjoyed, and the stupid pillar was also a little excited.

It's not that he has a deep friendship with Chu Xiangqian, but in addition to being a neighbor with Chu Xiangqian and a patriot who is about to become his brother-in-law, it also means that he can get wild meat.

In the past, when there was a shortage of grain, although the rolling mill had been trying its best to get more oil and water, to be honest, even Deputy Director Li did not dare to open a small stove in the canteen at such a difficult time.

Therefore, even if they got wild meat, they basically went into the big canteen to supplement some nutrition for the workers.

But now there has been no shortage of grain in the capital for two months, and the quota of 2 catties that everyone had reduced before has also recovered.

But as a result, the amount of meat consumed suddenly increased.

Xie Zhende, the director of logistics, has asked Silly Zhu and the country and the people more than once when Chu Xiangqian will come back.

Although they didn't explicitly say that they wanted to find Chu Xiangqian to get a wild boar or something, the three of them knew what Xie Zhende meant as soon as they heard it.

Now that Chu Xiangqian is back, of course he is looking for him.

If you can really get game, according to Xie Zhende, you will be treated as a temporary purchaser, and you will be rewarded with a corresponding bonus for completing as many procurement tasks as you complete.

If you can get a wild boar, you can get a bonus of thirty dollars.

Silly Zhu has been married because of patriotism and rain, and the reason why he got married after the New Year, although they are still very respectful to the master and the master in the Qianmen courtyard, their mentality is also a little casual.

In addition, I have been cooking here for more than half a year, and I speak very casually.

And everyone is almost a relative, so there is really no need to be so restrained.

A meal of 10 dishes and two soups, plus white rice and three bottles of Moutai to eat and drink, even Fei Fei, Mrs. Kuo, who is used to eating the craftsmanship of master masters on Hong Kong Island, is full of praise for Silly Zhu's craftsmanship.

After eating and drinking, the women went to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, but unfortunately the master didn't let Xue Jinglan, Hong Kong Sheng, Fei Fei and Aiyuan do it.

And it is actually enough to wash the dishes and clean up with patriotism and love for the people.

Chu Xiangqian simply took his daughter-in-law, sister, and stupid pillar, and accompanied the master, Yitian, and Lao Jiang to sit in the hall drinking tea, smoking and chatting.

However, Xue Jinglan entered the main hall and sat on a row of chairs against the wall with great discernment.

Chu Xiangqian first learned about the past one or two months with his master, and there was no accident at all, so he had time to talk to Silly Zhu about patriotism and rain's marriage.

In fact, there is no need for Chu Xiangqian to worry about this, and there is no need to even be stupid.

Not only has the second uncle and second aunt been preparing, but when they get married this year, the most worrying thing is actually the dishes that need to be prepared for the wedding banquet.

Not to mention that the Chu family has Chu Xiangqian, the eldest brother, who can get anything, just because of the identity of the salesperson of the second aunt supply and marketing cooperative, he can get more things than most ordinary people.

Xue Jinglan, who is a sister-in-law, wants to do a big job for the country, and Fei Fei and Hong Kong students are even more chattering about how to do it.

As for Ehime, she depends on Chu Xiangqian's intentions.

But Chu Xiangqian is not stupid, he knows that everything has to have a degree.

When other people get married, they can get one or two meat dishes, accompanied by three or four vegetarian dishes, and two Erhe noodle steamed buns per person, which is already an excellent wedding banquet dish.

If this is like tonight, in a table of 10 dishes, 4 large meats, 4 stir-fried dishes with meat, 2 green vegetables and 2 soups, then it is really deliberately showing off and making people envious.

He was even deliberately hated.

If you really want to eat well, then make two more tables in the courtyard here at the front door, and eat behind closed doors.

Therefore, after discussing the dishes of Luogu Lane, Chu Xiangqian and Silly Zhu quickly decided to have a pheasant on the table.

Stir-fried shredded radish with chicken offal, stewed cabbage vermicelli on the chicken rack, and then a large pot of chestnut roasted chicken nuggets, and finally a random vegetarian dish can be drawn.

The most difficult thing to get in this dish is naturally 4 pheasants and about 10 catties of chestnuts, but this is very simple for Chu Xiangqian.

Outsiders will not think it is showing off.

After all, Chu Xiangqian used to even be able to hunt wild boars, tigers, leopards and wolves in the mountains, and the four pheasants would feel that Chu Xiangqian was a little unsuccessful to the neighbors around Luogu Lane.

Maybe some people will gossip, saying that he, who is the eldest brother, is not interested in his cousin's marriage.

As for the Erhe noodle steamed buns, anyway, the guests who come to eat will have two taels of food stamps per person.

The official date is set for March next year.

The so-called wax moon does not be a matchmaker, the first month does not worship the church, a week after the Lantern Festival, it is an excellent day, the second uncle has discussed this matter with the first uncle, the deaf old lady.

By the way, he also asked his master Gong Changqing for his opinion, so Chu Xiangqian had no opinion on this at all.

Besides, this matter shouldn't have been decided by him, the eldest brother, after all, the second and third uncles are here.

As for the age of the rain, as long as the application is marked and the neighborhood committee and the street are approved, then everything will be fine.

When the time comes, go to the neighborhood committee to get a marriage certificate, and you will be a legal husband and wife.

Chu Xiangqian could guess the thoughts of the above, that is, he wished that all the men of the Chu family had married girls from the mainland, and they all worked and lived in the mainland.

So as long as the age is not too bad, 17 years old or 18 years old, or not 18 years old is not a problem.

——

After chatting about business, the patriot, the people and the teacher also cleaned up and washed the dishes and chopsticks, and went into the hall together to sit and gossip.

Talking and talking, let's talk about it, and after the reception on the other side of Luoguxiang, the family will have a meal at the front door in the evening.

Silly Zhu didn't fight to be the boss this time, but said that he married his sister, and he should take a break when he was the eldest brother.

Everyone laughed, but this was actually right, after all, Chu Xiangqian couldn't find other chefs, there was no need to marry a girl in the He family, and he had to be a fool to be an elder brother and cook for the Chu family.

It's not nice to say.

So Chu Xiangqian wanted to say very happily, then spend some money to invite Nan Yi.

But before she could say this, Fei Fei suddenly said, "The last time I came to the capital, didn't I meet the first-class chef of the Beijing Hotel?"

Why don't you ask the master and his apprentices to prepare two Tan family dishes in advance? ”

When Xue Jinglan, Hong Kong Sheng and Ehime were on Hong Kong Island, they had eaten the Tan family food made by He Daqing.

He Daqing's cooking is so delicious, the first-class chefs and apprentices who have been in charge of the Beijing Hotel and have never left the back kitchen will definitely be more delicious.

Chu Xiangqian saw that his three daughters-in-law and one sister were all looking at him, and after thinking about it carefully, the old master knew that his family was not short of money last time, so he nodded.

"Ming'er, I'll call and ask if they're free."

Silly Zhu said directly, "This matter is simple, anyway, there are still three months, I will go over and say it myself tomorrow, it is not a big problem."

It's just the price. ”

Chu waved his hand forward, and the stupid pillar went out to do private work, and it cost one or two yuan a table to stir-fry people.

This kind of first-class chef made a move, even if it was a hundred yuan a table, Chu Xiangqian was not surprised.

In recent years, some famous opera actors have three or five hundred yuan when they go out to sing a play, and it is normal to earn two or three thousand a month.

Otherwise, during the storm, there would not be so many people staring at people in the culture and entertainment circles.

Silly Zhu saw Chu Xiangqian say that money is not a problem, so he nodded with a smile, "A table of 40, and a pack of good cigarettes per person, it should be no problem." ”

Chu Xiangqian agreed directly without bargaining at all, and now the stupid pillar felt more and more face-saving.

Shi Niang and Gong Er pulled Xue Jinglan, Hong Kong Sheng and others, laughing and joking about their embarrassment of patriotism.

After chatting about the matter, I didn't know where the topic was going, so Silly Zhu took the opportunity to whisper to Chu Xiangqian, "Xiangqian, my director has looked for me several times and asked when you will come back."

If it's convenient for you, help the factory get a wild boar or two back? ”

After speaking, he talked about the fact that the wild boar was brought back, and he and his patriotism and love the people had bonuses.

Chu Xiangqian didn't care about dozens of yuan, but for the stupid pillar, patriotism, and love of the people, it was a month's salary, and it was difficult to be active.

Not to mention that Silly Zhu is going to marry his sister, and Aiguo is about to marry his daughter-in-law, and the two are now very interested in salary increases and bonuses.

Chu Xiangqian thought about it and said with a smile, "I'm not sure about the wild boar, after all, I didn't go into the mountains to hunt by myself, and I didn't necessarily meet an Orion and hunt one by chance."

But I really got the exact news that I could get one or two from the mountains to the north. ”

The bears in the novice village, except for the rice fish, as always, were collected together with wild boars, foxes, and wolves, and sold to some of the related outdoors on Hong Kong Island, and now there are five or six thousand heads.

So much so that when Chu Xiangqian was farming monsters in the game recently, he wanted to collect animal skins, bear paws, tiger skins, tiger whips and so on only with the collection technique for bears, wolves, foxes, tigers and sharks.

Other meat and bones do not want to think.

But after a collection operation, not only the fur, bones, flesh and internal organs are all collected, but even the claws, teeth and so on are automatically stored in the carry-on storage space.

Silly Zhu was as expected, not surprised.

Since it is all game, it is natural that blind bears are more rare than wild boars.

It's a pity that although Silly Zhu knows how to do it, he has never used it himself.

If you want to eat this thing, you must only ask the master chef in the state-run hotel.

But this is not difficult for the stupid pillar, and he said in a low voice with a smile, "Then it is said that there is one end, and there are two ends, and the factory will definitely be able to wrap the round." ”

After speaking, there was an inexplicable smile in his eyes, he looked left and right, and whispered again, "You see, this time the factory does not need to exchange money with you." ”

Chu Xiangqian was stunned for a moment, and then listened to Silly Zhu continue, "Nan Guangsheng's kid is still young, and other buyers in the factory this year can get three or five catties of eggs every month.

He can get a few catties of meat every month. ”

After speaking, the stupid pillar smiled, "Although this kid is not like before, he can complete the procurement task of 20 catties of meat every month."

But I got a few pounds of meat every month, which didn't look outstanding, but in the end it still attracted the attention of other buyers.

Although this kid just didn't say anything, someone who thought about it a little bit still guessed that he got the game from you.

Otherwise, this kid will definitely be suffocated. ”

Chu Xiangqian nodded after thinking about it, what Silly Zhu said was indeed very reasonable, and then his heart moved, and sure enough, he saw Silly Zhu smile and said, "My director has recently received some good antiques."

You have game in your hands, just walk around with our director. ”

Chu Xiangqian immediately realized that Nan Guangsheng was still being tricked.

Or rather, it slipped out.

And the antiques in the hands of Xie Zhende and Deputy Director Li may not have been spent at all.

And the real good things, the two of them don't necessarily take out and exchange.

But it's normal to think about it, some good things in these years are not national treasures, but a few decades later, they are really tens of millions, or even more than 100 million treasures.

Besides, as long as it wasn't given away for nothing, Chu Xiangqian couldn't wait to change some more antiques and hide them in his hands.

He nodded with a smile and said, "Give me a day or two, and after the blind bear is transported over, I will let Aiguo tell you." If there's anything good over there, I'll find a way to get it back. ”

Silly Zhu was overjoyed, and he didn't suspect the origin of the blind bear at all.

He is not a nerd who doesn't listen to what's going on outside the window, and the mountains around the capital have long been looted by hungry and dizzy people.

Even wild vegetables that emerge in spring, summer and autumn before winter will be poached as soon as they grow, even if they are seedlings.

The bark and grass roots in the mountains, as long as they can be eaten, are basically scavenged, and in this case, any wild beast can only hide in the mountains.

Otherwise, they will be beaten back and eaten by various communes, factories, and even militia and villagers in mountainside villages.

Therefore, Chu Xiangqian said that the bear blind man was from the north, which was in line with the expectations of outsiders.

——

At about 8 o'clock in the evening, Silly Zhu also returned to Luoguxiang with patriotism and love for the people.

Only then did the old man call out to Chu Xiangqian, and he carried a lantern into the secret room of this courtyard.

Seeing that it was only half a year, dozens of porcelain, calligraphy and paintings and jade were placed on the hardwood shelves in the secret room.

I can't help but give a thumbs up to my master.

The old man was secretly proud, picked up four pairs of calligraphy and paintings and put them on the long table in the secret room, opened them together, and then said with a smile, "I know that you like celebrity calligraphy and painting, these four paintings of river flowers, birds, insects and trees are treasures of Julian."

Just buying these four paintings cost 2,000 yuan and 200 catties of dried fish. ”

Fortunately, Chu Xiangqian had been handing over all the money he earned from selling 7,000 catties of dried fish to the streets and rolling mills every month to the old man Gong.

Otherwise, when he encounters a really good thing, Gong Changqing may not be able to buy it.

Even if he has some family background, after one or two times, he will basically empty the money in his hands.

After listening to the offer, Chu Xiangqian didn't care at all. Although Mr. Ju's paintings are not considered to be the top price, they are in a class of their own.

Chu Xiangqian's natural concern is not how much the painting is worth, but to appreciate and learn the skills and artistic conception in the painting.

After watching it for half an hour, he smiled with satisfaction.
