Chapter 89 Archaeology? Or...
"Zhang Jianguo, where did you put your lunch box? You look listless. What did you do last night?" Sha Zhu's scolding voice came. Wang Xiaohu looked over and saw Zhang Jianguo, with a pair of panda eyes, putting the lunch box on the other side of the food window. He looked dazed.
"That won't do. Lao Zhao, please find a time to report this to Director Yang. Recently, many people stay up late at night to go to the pigeon market, or even the black market or the ghost market. If any production accidents happen, it will be troublesome."
"I'll go and tell him later. Didn't Jia Dongxu die in the same way? It's so surprising that we've forgotten it so quickly." Zhao Lijun agreed.
"Do you know how Jia Dongxu died?" Wang Xiaohu asked curiously after sitting down. When he came back, Jia Dongxu was already dead, and he didn't know exactly how he died.
"I was patrolling here that day, and he looked very tired. After a while, he cried out in surprise. It was probably caused by an operational error."
"I see." Wang Xiaohu understood. If that was the case, the factory would not lose much. He could only thank the system for keeping his workstation.
"Hehe, actually, it's understandable. Now seeing this widow Qin, no one wants to sleep." Zhao Lijun changed the subject and smiled obscenely.
Wang Xiaohu ate the steamed bun in his hand and joked: "You are right. I will go talk to my sister-in-law and tell her that you, Lao Zhao, dared to be attracted to other women while you were eating from the bowl and looking at the pot."
"Just go and talk to her. I have the final say at home. By the way, speaking of partners, what's going on between you and Captain Jin recently?" Zhao Lijun asked with a gossipy look on his face. He was very optimistic about Wang Xiaohu and Jin Cancan. They were both captains of the security department. It would be great if they could go to and from get off work together in the future.
"What's wrong? It's just an ordinary gay relationship. Don't worry about it, Lao Zhao." Wang Xiaohu gulped down two gulps of boiled water and continued, "And think about it, if the two of us are together, she will look at me at work and at home again. We are together 24 hours a day. Think about it carefully. Isn't this feeling terrifying?"
Zhao Lijun listened and thought, and shuddered as he thought deeply: "We can't do this! Absolutely not."
Wang Xiaohu added more strength and asked, "I want to ask you a question, what are the benefits of getting married?"
"Benefits? There are many benefits, uh..."
Wang Xiaohu smiled and didn't continue talking. He was indeed a topic terminator.
Returned home in the evening.
Sha Zhu has been waiting for a long time.
"Here are 50 Sichuan dishes. Basically, everything you can cook at home is in here. Take a look."
Wang Xiaohu didn't expect Sha Zhu to be so proactive. He thought something weird would happen. It seems that this recipe is not very important. He suffered a bit of a loss.
"Thanks. I'll let my mother try it tonight." Wang Xiaohu took the recipe and took a look. There were shredded pork with fish flavor, twice-cooked pork, mapo tofu, kung pao chicken...all of which were very appetizing and delicious dishes.
Sha Zhu gave the recipe and went back to the central courtyard.
Wang Xiaohu returned to the house and put the recipe on the table: "Today we can consider making twice-cooked pork, and tomorrow we can buy some tofu and have Mapo tofu."
"Twice-cooked pork is easy to make. You can ask Uncle San for some garlic sprouts. Tofu is hard to buy as we have run out of tofu tickets at home." Zhang Hailian and Zhang Lanxi were flipping through the recipe book together, their eyes brighter than ever.
"It's a big profit. I can get so many recipes in exchange for one pound of meat. It's a huge profit~" Zhang Hailian was very satisfied after seeing it.
"I guess these recipes can be found somewhere in the library as long as you spend some time. They are not very precious." Wang Xiaohu just looked at them and found that they were all home-cooked dishes. There were no famous dishes like boiled cabbage. But even if there were, they would not be cooked. Where would he get the materials and technology?
"That's enough. What other secret recipes do you want? Just learn these dozens of dishes. Once you master one, you will know everything. Maybe we can go out and cook big pot dishes." There was a gleam in Zhang Hailian's eyes. Wang Xiaohu was a little surprised by their fighting spirit.
It seems that if there is anything like cooking in the future, I will have to let them learn it. Wang Xiaohu has never believed that women should just stay at home. Wouldn’t it be nice if they could have a career?
"Xiao Hu, you have a house now, but you still lack thirty-six legs. The third uncle said that his family member Yan Jiecheng wants to hire a carpenter to build it. Do you think we should do it together?" Wang Dalu asked while drinking.
"It was Uncle Three who asked for it, right? Didn't he also say it would be cheaper if we do it together?" Wang Xiaohu raised his glass and the three men clinked it together.
After drinking, Wang Dalu laughed: "My son is really smart. He also said that Liu Haizhong also wants to make bunk beds, and Xu Damao also wants to make 72 legs for his wedding. If he were to negotiate the price, it would definitely be 10% lower than the market price."
"Xu Damao is indeed rich. He has 72 legs, but he is not afraid of being too ostentatious." Wang Xiaohu thought that Lou Xiao'e's family was so rich, and it was indeed delicious to live off her.
"What's the big deal? It's a normal marriage. We can do 72 legs." Wang Dalu took two sips of wine, then was stunned for a while and suddenly said, "Did you buy my two bottles of Moutai?"
"Uh... definitely next time." Wang Xiaohu was stunned for a moment, and said immediately that he had forgotten again.
"I need to ask Grandpa Zhang about this carpenter's job first. He is the most famous carpenter in Nanluoguxiang. It would be inappropriate to bypass him."
“That’s right, then you go ask.” Wang Dalu thought that this was the right thing to do, otherwise it would be impolite.
The next day.
Wang Xiaohu rode his bike to find carpenter Zhang Benchu, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Jin Cancan and Li Si.
"What a coincidence. You guys chat. I'll come back to see you later, Uncle Zhang." Wang Xiaohu turned around and left without hesitation.
"Stop! Why are you running? You're not a popular person, huh!" Jin Cancan said angrily, "We are discussing important matters and just wanted to find you."
Wang Xiaohu stopped, found a stool and sat down, and asked curiously, "What's the important matter?"
"I would like to invite you to go steal... ahem... do some archaeological research. This is a task assigned by our superiors." Jin Cancan almost said the wrong thing and could only smile awkwardly.
