Chapter 88

The three of them set up a small iron rack at the entrance of the Binjiang Road cottage. This was originally re-customized by Luli later and used for the guests to prepare for temporary meals. Today, there were only three people who were dining and drinking, so they naturally had to use it to make do with it.

Zhu Guoying stared at his skillful hands and feet, and while turning the bamboo sticks, he talked to them, "Brother Hua, Brother Ying, we eat and roast it now. This thing is the same as mutton hotpot. It is cooked when it is hot, very fast and very convenient. Do you see these mutton skewers in the basin? We have it! Hey, Brother Ying, pour wine, I'm not polite at all when I'm here. You're here, why are you doing this?"

"I'm not polite to you, I just think it's fresh. Alas, Xiaoxiao, how did you get it?"

"I went to the northeast and it was my sister. Well, my second sister bought it from a brigade under Kailu (county) where my second sister went to the countryside. "He picked up a skewer and inserted the shredded pork with a stick. He felt it was almost done, so he sprinkled a layer of cumin, then placed the salt pot and two other seasoning jars on the table, "Come on, it's cooked. Brother Hua came here a few days ago. It's probably the first time Brother Ying eats it while it's hot. This thing will be tasteless when it's cold."

Zhu Guoying was not polite either. He picked up a few bites, stirred it with his tongue, and grated it with his teeth. His body did not reject this special delicacy at all. His glasses turned into a crescent moon, "It's really... delicious! Fuck, how did you figure out this thing?"

"I ate mutton hotpot with my family, and suddenly thought of the solution, what, what's going on, are you okay?"

"Okay, it's so good!" Zhu Guoying picked up the glass and took a sip. "Your brain is so good. I'll drink wine and I won't change it if I give it to me as a teacher!"

Lu Li and Zhu Jiahua looked at each other and smiled. He picked up another small rack, put on the hot charcoal again, and baked it again, "Xiaoxiao, don't you eat it?"

"Eat, I've cooked this pot, let's eat it together. Brother Hua, you eat yours, don't wait for me, wow! Brother Ying, you've eaten fast enough. You look hungry?"

Zhu Guoying's mouth was filled with cumin powder. It was the first time he had such a delicious food, and he couldn't stop! He grinned without raising his head, picked up the last few meat skewers, and said vaguely: "You guys do it first, I'm really hungry. Don't care about you anymore?"

Lu Li baked him three pots in a row, and after hundreds of dozens of meat skewers, Zhu Guoying's eating speed finally slowed down. "Oh, it's so comfortable. Alas. Xiaoxiao, come here to drink? What are you busy with?"

Zhu Jiahua gave his cousin a blank look, "Xiaoxiao, what kind of mutton skewers are? How much does it make for the sale of clothes?"

"It should be said to be a little better. Now it depends on how effective it will be after the heat. I still want to continue selling, but I am afraid that it will not recognize it." He shook his head and said slowly: "Take it slow, there is always a way."

"Don't say that there are so many or not. Today I'm here to drink. Let's drink."

"Here you." Luli turned around and sat down, picked up the wine glass, "Come on, Brother Ying, Brother Hua, I'll give you a cup."

He picked up the wine glass and before he could take a sip, two people suddenly walked past the street and approached timidly. One of them bent down and asked, "Will that... mutton skewers be sold? Is it worth two dollars?"

Lu Li laughed in silence and stood up quickly, "I'm sorry, I won't sell it today. I'm eating here with my friends. If you like it, come to the third year of junior high school and our third year of junior high school will officially start business. Welcome to come then."

"Why is this? We heard that there are mutton skewers on Binjiang Road, which are very delicious, so we came here to try it. We... live in Xiaohaidi. It's very far away."

"I'm sorry, please forgive me. Look, this first day of the Chinese New Year, my friend came to greet me for New Year. I couldn't leave me behind and turn to work on my own business. Do you think?"

"Then, will it definitely be sold in the third year of junior high school?"

"Absolutely, sure." Luli nodded and bowed, sending away the two suddenly arrived guests, and sat down again.

"Xiaoxiao, why are you so polite? Wouldn't it be over to let them get out?"

Lu Li and Zhu Jiahua were both surprised at the same time: "Why don't you do it? You're not a business material. The most important thing in this industry is to make money with kindness. Just like Brother Ying was in the army, he would do whatever he wanted, and the final result was to go out to beg for food!"

Zhu Jiahua laughed, "That's right! Xiaojiu, don't look down on this industry. Dealing with people has been the most difficult since ancient times. You are in the army. If you learn to do business like Xiaoxiao, you... are far from it."

Zhu Guoying was eating a lot of ditches and was very dissatisfied when he heard this, "What's so great? I can do it too."

"Then, Brother Ying, please stay here for a few more days. When you go back, you can go to my practice stall. How about trying it?"

"Just try it, I don't believe it. If you sell mutton skewers, I will sell it too. As long as the things are good, why can't you make money? At most I won't speak." He took out a cigarette and lit it for himself and his cousin. "Wait for a while, I will practice my skills first. I will sell it to you for one day in the third year of junior high school. We two will gesture."

Lu Li nodded with a smile, reached out and picked up the Chinese cigarette he threw on the square table, "Brother Ying, do you usually smoke this Chinese?"

"Yes, what's wrong, you want to try it too?"

"That's not. I want to ask you, can you get some for me? I mean, do more? You don't know that the last time we came back from Yangcheng, I was in a soft sleeper. Xu Yunjian bought a few boxes in the car, but not many, and I can't resist the group of smokers. Now there are no more."

"What are you doing? Are you planning to start selling cigarettes again? I can tell you that this thing cannot be sold on the street."

"I know, I want to buy some for my aunt. You also know that in the past six months, I have made some money and put all the money I earned with my aunt. What I mean is that if the elderly should spend it and use it. Who knows that she will not spend it, and she said she will keep it for me in the future. Now, I will still draw one or two cents a box of battles, births, big babies, etc. every day, and I will draw quite fiercely, and I always need two packs a day - I advised her to quit and it would not work, so I wanted to buy some good things for her, which may be good for her health, what do you think?"

The Zhu brothers were all moved when they heard his nagging words. Zhu Guoying patted his shoulder and said loudly: "Just for your filial piety, I will leave your aunt's smoking to my brother! I don't bring a lot of cigarettes from Yangcheng this time. You can take them away first and take them to you when I come back from Beijing (Beijing). In the future, I will mail you at any time when I return to Yangcheng. Five pieces a month are enough, right?"

"Enough, enough, enough. I'll give you money..."

"Shut up! Do we still need to mention this? Stop talking, let me turn against you."

Lu Li no longer insisted, sprinkled the roasted meat skewers with cumin and chili, and put them in front of Zhu Jiahua with his backhand, "Brother Hua, Brother Ying is full, let's eat it."

"What do you two brothers eat? What's the point of not giving me food?" Zhu Guoying laughed and grabbed a few tags, and started biting it with big mouthfuls.

The three of them drank and ate meat and shared their friendship. They were happy. Zhu Jiahua took a few bites and put down the wine glass. He said, "Xiaoxiao, I have to leave after the fourth day of the lunar month."

"So fast?"

"Yes, Beijing has already prepared, and I have been arranged to work in the United War Department. After the fifth day of the lunar month, they will be officially working. You..."

Lu Li's heart sank. He and Zhu Jiahua have known each other for more than half a year, and have learned a lot of knowledge and truth from Zhu Jiahua. More importantly, the kind-hearted friendship from the other party is what he values ​​most. Now that he is separated, the young man's melancholy is hard to relieve, and his reluctant expression is written all over his face.

Zhu Jiahua saw it, forced himself to smile and said, "Don't let it go, Beijing and Tianjin are not far away. If you miss me, come to Beijing to see me. I can't guarantee that as long as you come, you will be my food and accommodation in Beijing."

"Brother Six, you can't do anything too much when you hear your words! What's the point of food and accommodation? Xiaoxiao went to Beijing (Beijing) to see you one day, so he had to do the best of the landlords, right? You can't take someone around Beijing (Beijing) and have a look?"

"Yes, Xiaojiu is right. When you come, I will take two days off to take you to have fun."

Lu Li smiled silently. Although the other party was talking, he understood that it was just that people were polite to him. If they really separated the two places, friendship would eventually fade due to geographical differences. I am afraid that when we meet again in the future, we will not be as harmonious and happy as a family as we are today.

"Xiaoxiao, don't think so much, let's... Alas, Xiaoxiao, are you still going to Yangcheng after the New Year?"

"I may not go there recently, so I asked Cao Xun and others to practice more. I will be waiting in Tianjin to take care of the business on both sides."

"Why is this happening? We all want to see you, so you should go?"

Lu Li laughed at Zhu Guoying's childish words, "Let's see when the time comes, I'll tell you that I have a lot of trouble this year. I have to go back to Lin in June. I promised our former branch secretary to help him harvest wheat. Before that, I have to distinguish accounts and other matters from my other companions - they will be divided into separate business in less than a long time. Really, I have a lot of things. I can only wait to go to Yangcheng again."

"How long has it been since the past? You still help me? It's very bitter to harvest wheat."

"I know, I promised him, how can I not go?" Lu Li calmed down and changed the topic with a smile. "When I finish eating, we will take a shower at the Huaqing Pond opposite, and then Brother Ying will go home to rest. I will invite you to the duck house to eat roast duck in the evening."

"There is no need to eat roast duck. We will work in Beijing right away. The Quanjude Roast Duck Restaurant is not more authentic than your Tianjin (Tianjin)? If you want to eat it, we will eat Goubuli. This is the specialty of Tianjin, right?"
