Chapter 190 Hot Pot

Everyone has a breakdown sometimes, but we just don’t know when, where, or why.

Liu Jian suffered so many hardships along the way without breaking down, but the lack of a place to live became the straw that broke the camel's back and he collapsed.

He regretted it and wanted to go back, but he had already come here and suffered so much.

I feel unwilling to go and take a look.

Now, how can I explain to the members of the UFO Association when I go back? I cried when I said that I had no place to live, and I came back without even seeing anyone.

And if I go back now, I have to sit in the car for more than ten hours, which is too tiring.

Liu Jian bit into the cold and hard corn tortillas, with tears still hanging from the corners of his eyes, and wandered aimlessly on the streets of the county town.

Finally, Liu Jian came to the place where Jiang Xiaobai once stayed, the door of the supply and marketing cooperative.

The entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative is quite big, but when Jiang Xiaobai lived there, it was summer and the weather was warm.

What about now? It's winter now, the New Year has just passed, and the biting cold wind is blowing on people's faces, which is painful.

If you want to stay overnight in front of the supply and marketing cooperative, you will probably feel cold when you wake up the next morning.

Just when Liu Jian was shivering in the cold and huddled at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, he was in the cafeteria of the Educated Youth Cannery.

Jiang Xiaobai is busy eating hot pot. The hot pot base is prepared by Jiang Xiaobai himself.

Li Laosan and others were sitting around the hot pot, watching Jiang Xiaobai busy at work, wanting to help but unable to do so.

There is no way to eat hot pot here in Jin Province. Jiang Xiaobai suddenly remembered it, and the weather was too cold today, so he called Li Laosan and others over to have a hot pot.

Want to eat hot pot? It would be better if there are more people.

"Wait for a while, wait for the water to boil and then you can put the meat into the pot. This is pure mutton that was finally obtained from the county."

Jiang Xiaobai said with a smile, "I haven't had hot pot for a long time, and I'm really hungry."

"It looks like it's going to snow today. It's a pleasure to eat steaming hot mutton hotpot and look at the snowy scene outside the window."

Jiang Xiaobai went on to say that there was no heating in the house in the winter, and all the heating was done by burning charcoal fires, so he would be woken up by the cold in the middle of the night every day.

"Director Xiaobai, where did you learn this skill? Can this still be a way for others to survive? You can even cook."

Li Laosan was still the first to flatter him, but with his conscience, he really didn't mean it, he just did it subconsciously and was used to it.

"That's right, Director Xiaobai, you don't need to eat this, it smells delicious, especially with this weather, it's amazing."

Some people say that if there is a raging army, a raging group of generals, and a leader who loves to flatter, then there will definitely be a bunch of sycophants below.

Without him, if you don’t have this technology, you won’t be able to get into the core circle.

Although Shi Sheng had only known Jiang Xiaobai for a short time, he was able to be invited over by Jiang Xiaobai to eat hot pot.

That definitely means entering Jiang Xiaobai's inner circle.

"Hahaha, you will know after you try it later." Jiang Xiaobai laughed.

A bunch of people here came to eat hot pot and praised the cold weather. But Liu Jian, who was leaning closely against the door of the supply and marketing cooperative on the other side, didn't think so.

And he was already scolding me. It was bad enough to stay on the street in the middle of winter without a place to live.

Looking at the crazy weather now, it's actually going to snow. This is a pace that makes me sacrifice my life for UFO research.

Liu Jian wrapped his coat tightly, his lips were turning purple from the cold, and he decided that he could not go on like this.

If this continues, I will definitely not be able to resist tonight.

Liu Jian continued walking around the county town. When his legs were almost frozen, he found a ruined temple in the east of the city.

The temple was very dilapidated. It was smashed during the Four Old Periods and no one repaired it. It was in a dilapidated state, but in Liu Jian's eyes, he had never felt that it had such a good place to live.

Liu Jian crossed the tattered threshold and walked in. In a corner of the temple, he found a large piece of tattered cloth.

It should be the original thing in the temple, Liu Jian felt like he had found a treasure.

Shaking off the dust, he held it tightly in his arms and continued to rummage on the ground.

Liu Jian cleared a space in a leeward corner, and then surrounded the corner with some shabby tables.

He half-lyed down against the corner, and finally wrapped the rag around his body, finally feeling that he was no longer so cold.

At the same time, Jiang Xiaobai, Li Laosan and others were sweating profusely from eating hot pot.

"It's delicious, it's delicious, this hot pot is good." Li Xiaoliu said while rinsing the mutton and wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"The hot pot is not bad," Li Laosan said as usual. The whole table was stunned for a moment, and then everyone watched Li Laosan's performance while eating.

"Do you know what this is? Do you know how much a kilogram of pure mutton costs? How many kilograms did we eat tonight?"

Li Laosan picked up a chopstick of mutton and said while eating.

"If this were changed before, during the New Year and festivals, it would be good if you could see some minced meat in the bowl. Needless to say, eating meat is calculated by the kilogram, just by the slice."

"That is to say, after Factory Director Xiaobai came to our Jianhua Village, life in our village gradually got better day by day. I won't talk about others, just all the workers in our educated youth cannery factory.

If you really want to eat meat, not just every day, but one meal every ten and a half months, there will definitely be no problem."

Li Laosan said and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Now that the output is guaranteed to each household, and pig farms are also required, as long as the villagers work hard, if nothing else, I can guarantee for Director Xiaobai that by the time of the Chinese New Year at the end of this year, every household will be able to eat meat."

Li Laosan said, and everyone responded in agreement.

Because Li Laosan didn't exaggerate and told the truth. If others don't tell, everyone here will be the beneficiary.

"I don't even have that much confidence in myself." Jiang Xiaobai said with squinted eyes.

"Director Xiaobai, please stop being modest. If you can't do it, then there's nothing you can do."

Li Laosan continued, and Jiang Xiaobai also laughed,

"By the way, Xiaobai, many people in Jianhua Village have gone out to borrow money in the past two days, and now it's snowing again. I was wondering if I could have the delivery truck pick them up when it comes back tomorrow.

Don’t let them miss the evening registration time.”

Huang Zhongfu said.

"Wang Meng, do you have any delivery plans tomorrow?" Jiang Xiaobai turned to look at Wang Meng.

"Tomorrow it will be just one family, no one else." Wang Meng said.

"Well, let's push it back and send all the cars out tomorrow. If there are any villagers returning to the village, pick them up."
