Chapter 77

A slaughtered sheep weighs about 43 or kilograms, stuffed it into a large sack, tied the mouth tightly and carried it on your shoulders to try it. There is no big problem, "Xu Yunjian, how are you?"

"I didn't say that, isn't this the way, I can carry it."

The three of them waved goodbye to Auntie Hua's family, tied the sack to the luggage rack outside the long-distance bus, and found a seat to sit down, "Hey, Xiaoxiao, I'm here to come, I think something is new, that's the one that's the one who pulls the scoop. You said it's so funny, right?"

Lu Li answered a few times, turned to Zhao Xiaodong and said, "Brother Zhao, tell you something?"

"What?"

"I really want to thank you this time."

"What are you talking about? Help your friends? Besides, I've been back for more than a year, and I'm thinking about seeing everyone. I'm going back with you once and chatting with Auntie Hua and the others. It's pretty good."

"Brother Zhao, this time I came to buy sheep. After I got back, if I didn't do it well, I don't have to mention anything. If it's really good, I want to ask you, do you plan to come out of the factory?"

"Come out, what comes out, where to go?"

"Come here and help me. Don't worry, I will double the amount of money you make in the factory. You don't have to worry about anything else, just help me run here, how about it?"

"Did you say, run here or help you with mutton?"

"right."

Zhao Xiaodong hesitated and shook his head, "I'm afraid this is not possible, that... Xiao Lu, I know you are not a bad person, but if I just come out of the factory like this, I still... dare not."

"Brother Zhao, you are also a salesman at the unit, and you run from all over the world. If you get to my place, to be honest, you can't run a few times a year. Think about it, the mutton you bought once may be used for a long time, right? At that time, you can take care of your family and make a lot of money, which means that the name is not so good, and it's an individual businessman! Apart from this, it's really better than you now earning more than 40 yuan a month."

"I...I think about it again, can it be?"

"Okay, why can't it?"

As he spoke all the way, he arrived at Kailu (County), and then transferred to the bus route, from Kailu to Tongliao, to Tianjin. In the mid-winter weather, the mutton was frozen hard. Although the temperature was warm on the train, Luli placed the mutton at the connection of the carriage. The door was not tight and the cold wind was poured in, so it would not deteriorate. A few days later, the train stopped at Tianjin Station.

As usual, Lu Li and Xu Yunjian each had a sack and squeezed onto the crowded No. 24 bus. They had been in the abalone shop for a long time and could no longer tell the odor, but when others smelled it, they felt very different. "What a big smell! This is... who brought mutton into the car?"

"It's really true, the smell of mutton, what a guy, the smell is really good!"

Lu Li pretended not to know, but fortunately the journey was not long. Before the passengers on the same bus found the source of the odor, they arrived at the station, "Xiaoxiao, where are these muttons put?"

"Let me go to my house, wait a while and let the three of us take a shower, and then call Cao Xun and the others to eat mutton hotpot at my house tonight! Brother Zhao, call my future sister-in-law, Xu Yunjian, wait a while to notify you."

"Okay. What about that thing?"

"I asked my aunt to buy the things, just bring your mouth."

Xu Yunjian and Zhao Xiaodong laughed, helped him put the sack into the room, and turned around.

Luli opened the sack, pulled out the mutton, cut off a piece of meat with a kitchen knife, placed it on the chopping board, cut it into slices of meat as thin as possible, then cut it into shredded meat, lift it on his hand to see, smell it, it was about the same thickness, and a strong smell of mutton; "Oh, what's the smell? Xiaoxiao, what's the matter again?"

Yu Fang led Zhao Yunsheng into the yard and looked at the two sacks placed on the ground, "This... Xiaoxiao, what is this?"

"My lamb, aunt, you're back. Cut more later, cut some cabbage, vermicelli, etc. Let's mutton tonight."

“Where did it come from?”

"I bought it. You can try it later. Good guy, the real mutton from Northeast Exterior is absolutely delicious!"

Yu Fang made him laugh. "Impotence, why don't you get idle all day long? Are you messing around in the cold weather?" The woman said, keeping busy.

At dusk, Liang Wei, Zhang Qing, Cao Xun, Xu Yunjian, Zhao Xiaodong and others arrived, and Lu Li, Yu Fang, Zhaodi and his family sat together in a reunion. There was a red charcoal hot pot in the middle, and the sink was boiling, with cabbage, lamb, vermicelli, frozen tofu, and fresh tofu rolling up and down, bringing out a steaming hot pot.

"Xiaoxiao, you're waiting for you, why don't you come here quickly?"

"That's... OK." Luli took an iron stick made of a car strip and was putting on the shredded lamb bit by bit. The first time he did such a thing, he was inevitably clumsy. He either missed his clothes or tied his hands. It took a few minutes to wear it, "You eat it first, don't wait for me."

"What's this? You found everyone. Now you can't go to the table?"

"It's coming."

Yu Fang suddenly put the chopsticks and scolded him sternly, "Xiaoxiao, put that thing for me! Did you hear it?"

"Oh, oh." Aunt got angry. Luli didn't dare to delay. He held a few sticks with meat in his hand and moved over, "Auntie, don't be so arrogant. Am I a little later?"

"Impotent ghost, so many people are waiting for you? There are also people who are Xiao Zhao and Xiao Zou. This is the first time they are here. Why are you intentionally not going to let others eat it? Look, the meat is boiled! "

Lu Li laughed and picked up the chopsticks, "Auntie, don't be angry. The meat is old and you can eat it. You can eat the new ones. This mutton is so tender, just rinse it. Come on, let's get the chopsticks."

Everyone held the chopsticks and picked up a piece of mutton and put it in the hot pot. As he said, this is called 'shabu' mutton. The meat is cooked when it is hot. It is taken out and put into the seasoning bowl, with the leek flowers and sesame sauce, and the fragrance of chili oil. The unique mutton smell of mutton is neutralized, and the rich and full of fragrance makes people's appetite. "Oh, Xiaoxiao, this time it's so comfortable! This thing is so delicious, it seems to be more fragrant than the mutton that can be bought in our city?"

Luli didn't eat a bite. He took the tag and baked it on the flask of the charcoal hot pot for a while. He saw that the meat had changed color and moved the position immediately. Then, when everyone was not paying attention, he turned around and looked out, "Oh!"

Cao Xun was shocked and hurried out of the house. He saw that he was holding a few sticks in his hand. The mutton on one of them was already half missing. "Xiaoxiao, what's wrong?"

"Wait a minute." Luli grabbed the salt, the powder made of cumin and chili powder, returned to the room, roasted the sticky sticks on the fire, and when it was almost cooked, sprinkled the powder, "What are you doing? It's all sprinkled into the soup!"

Lu Li turned a deaf ear and took one and handed it to Yu Fang, "Auntie, do you try it?"

"What is this?"

"How do you taste the mutton skewers I have come up with? Come on, try each one and try them all? Alas, rinse your mouth in advance."

I tasted it one by one and smacked my lips, "This is nothing great, what's wrong?"

"You really don't know anything. This is because you just ate mutton hotpot and your mouth is filled with the smell of mutton, so you don't think anything. If you eat this before eating, I promise you can't stop."

"What, I'll just listen to you for a blow." Zhaodi spat on his younger brother and sat down again, "Mom, brother and sister, Xiao Zhao, Xiao Zou, let's eat ours, don't pay attention to him, and you'll have trouble all day long."

Lu Li didn't care, so he simply stopped eating mutton hotpot, went out to sit on the bench and started wearing the tags.

"Hey, Xiaoxiao. Is this stick good to use?" Cao Xun also came out at some point, "I really can't get the bamboo stick thing. I asked my sister-in-law, and she said that thirty-five is acceptable, so I told my third uncle."

"Well, that's OK, it's just a little too expensive. Bamboo sticks... won't they make them?"

"The price is about the same as this one, it's only five yuan cheaper. Later I thought, I was afraid that the bamboo wouldn't be able to use it. If the price wasn't much different, it wouldn't be enough to use an iron label."

"A thousand bamboos cost thirty yuan?"

"Yes, people say that you have to ask for more mistakes, so you can consider it. I asked them, ten thousand yuan, one hundred yuan."

Luli thought about it and said, "From now on, I will make 10,000 bamboos."

"Ten thousand...it really costs so much?"

"It may not be used so much now, but I think it will be almost done in the future."

"Okay, I'll contact them in a few days." Cao Xun suddenly hit him with his knee, "Hey, Xiaoxiao, let me tell you something."

"What's up?"

"My sister-in-law has introduced me to a partner."

Luli was surprised, “Is it?”

"Isn't that? It's her classmate, named Huang Yu." Cao Xun said with a smile: "I have met her twice. This girl is pretty good. She has also visited our Binjiang Road. She left without saying anything. After that, there was no news from my sister-in-law. Xiaoxiao, you are so smart. Tell me, isn't it a chance?"

"How can I know this? She is in the house, just ask yourself."

"I don't dare. What if she says Xiao Huang doesn't want it, then what should I do?"

Lu Li smiled and turned his head to look at his old friend, "You, turn around and ask Xiaowei, where is Huang Yu living, carry something to the door and see it, and just treat him as a relative - you are a man, you should be more courageous. Besides, I really like other girls, so I don't embarrass myself to do such things."

"Sure, listen to you."

"Zhang Qing? Have you finished eating? And Xu Yunjian, all came out." Calling out the two people, Lu Li began to instruct, "Tomorrow, Zhang Qing and Cao Xun go to Qinghe Street, find a ** iron man, make an iron frame, and do this and this..."

"I understand, do you still have it?"

"There is also carbon. I go to local products to buy it. I don't need tickets for that thing. I buy a sack and find a way to get two pairs of wire gloves. Finally, it's Xu Yunjian, who helps me wear the tag."

Xu Yunjian didn't know the depth, but instead thought it was an extremely relaxed job. He smiled happily, "No problem, how much do you wear?"

"To be sure to finish these thousand pieces." (To be continued.)
