Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

Chapter 208 The Power of Chili Powder

"Then you can collect some mountain products here and take them to the Central Plains to sell, but don't buy too much. There are plenty of things to take away along the way." Xue Li felt that since they were prepared to grope their way through this, they naturally had to fill the truck.

"We plan to go from the coast and get some seafood to sell inland areas." Fu Biao and his men have already made a plan. As for the detailed map, they will ask their comrades to come and accompany them after they get to the local area.

Xue Li said "oh", the dried seafood in Northeast China is indeed quite good, and he can make some money when he moves to a city that is not near the sea.

After dinner, Xiong Lijin began to ask everyone if they had anything they needed to bring back. "Our destination is G City, G Province, and we're going to bring back some more clothes. If you want anything, I'll bring it to you on the way."

Wu Aiqing thought about it and missed the smoked meat from his hometown, so he asked them if they had ever passed through that place, which was Province H next to City B.

"Yes, of course." They still have to go find Luo Chengxin.

"If it's convenient, please bring me some smoked meat." Wu Aiqing said, nothing else.

Everyone's life after going to the countryside is so comfortable that there is really nothing they need.

"I just want what I want to eat. Just buy me whatever is convenient for you to bring." Jiang Yu didn't want anything else. She was just curious about the food in other places. If she could go there and eat it by herself, she would be so happy!

Xue Li shook her head. She was the one who really had everything she needed. The space mall had a wide variety of things and there was no need to buy anything else.

"Okay then, we'll bring you gifts later." Xiong Lijin put away the notebook.

We also talked about how to solve road safety issues.

Wu Aiqing took out his small medicine box and handed it to Fu Biao. "Each medicine has its function written on it. You can use it as you like. The ones that are ground into powder can be taken orally with water. The ones that are not ground need to be boiled."

"You can take my small clay stove with you." When talking about boiling Chinese medicine, Jiang Yu remembered the small stove he used to cook hot pot last winter, which came in handy.

"I still have some charcoal in a jar. I don't know if it can still be used, but I'll take it with me anyway." Xue Li thought that it would be inconvenient to burn firewood in the car, so she had to use charcoal. However, her charcoal was taken from the space, and although it was not smokeless (difficult to explain), it could definitely be used.

"I have a larger piece of iron sheet here. You can put it under the stove and you don't have to worry about burning anything." Jiang Yu had stored up a lot of iron sheets, some of which had not yet been melted to make wire. It was just a coincidence, wasn't it?

"Take some rice with you. You can't eat dry food when you are on the road." Wu Aiqing stood up, "I'll make some steamed buns and pancakes for you to take with you!"

"No, no, we've asked our friends to prepare it." Fu Biao quickly refused.

Jiang Yu also asked, "I have a smoked rabbit, can I bring it with me to cook porridge?"

"I have mushroom sauce and chili sauce, I'll bring them to you later." Xue Li thought to himself, I'll use cans to fill two large jars of mushroom sauce and beef sauce for you to take away, and they'll be so delicious when you eat them with steamed buns!

"Enough, enough, enough." Xiong Lijin hurriedly stopped them. If they continued talking like this, they would be taken away from home.

Jiang Yu and Xue Li were still thinking about what they could bring to them, and didn't care about the other party's refusal.

As soon as the conversation was over, Jiang Yu picked up Xue Li and went back to the room.

Jiang Yu took the stove, wrapped the rabbit in oil paper, and took out some of the dried chestnuts and red dates in the space and put them in a cloth bag.

Xue Li, who was standing next to him, took out two cans from the cabinet beside the bed and went to the delicatessen section of the supermarket in the space to raid the area. He packed a bottle of bulk mushroom sauce, beef sauce, and chopped pepper meat sauce. When he was about to leave, he saw the chili powder section and quickly took out greaseproof paper to start packing the chili powder labeled "super spicy" and "devil spicy."

Because she was in space, her actions were not affected by her limbs and her movements were much smoother.

When Chen Jinghan knocked on the door and came in, Xue Li pointed at the bottle and paper bag on the table and told him, "The oil paper bag contains chili powder, the super spicy kind. Find a way to organize it so that you can use it if you encounter danger."

"Okay. Wait a moment. I'll give the things to them and then come over to boil water for you." Chen Jinghan picked up the can and took the oil paper bag.

"It's okay. Their matters are more urgent. It's okay if I take my time." She wasn't sleepy anyway. She had been sleeping until 9 o'clock these past two days. It was just a little late to bed. No big deal.

Chen Jinghan handed the things to Xiong Lijin and told him about the chili powder, "You guys can handle this yourself."

Xiong Lijin looked at the oil paper bag curiously, "Super spicy, how spicy can it be?"

A few minutes later, a shocking cry of "Fuck!" erupted in Xiong Lijin's room.

When everyone went over to check what was going on, they only saw him pouring water frantically.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Yu asked puzzledly.

"He must have secretly tried the chili powder that Xue Li gave him." Chen Jinghan crossed his arms, looking somewhat gloating.

Fu Biao and Wu Aiqing laughed when they heard this, "Is it so spicy?"

“It’s so spicy!!!” Xiong Lijin howled, tears and snot flowing, and his face turned red.

"It's better to be spicy. This is for your self-defense." Chen Jinghan didn't expect that the chili powder would be so powerful. I wonder if this chili powder will still be effective when they pass through Sichuan and Chongqing?

Xue Li, who was in the house listening to the noise outside, suddenly found it a little funny. Xiong Lijin really had some unexpected talent for comedy.

After a noisy night, the next day, Fu Biao and Xiong Lijin went to the brigade headquarters to ask for leave to visit their families.

As expected, Zhuang Shouren did not make things difficult for them and did not say a word. When he heard that he needed to take a month's leave, his men paused for a moment, then quickly stamped their letters of introduction and waved goodbye.

Captain Zhuang has a hard time too. The day before yesterday, Jiang Yu smashed the tiles of Grandma Yang's house, and yesterday Grandma Yang's family came to his door like they were mourning.

They said that Zhuang Shouren should make the decision for them.

Zhuang Shouren almost laughed out loud. What kind of boss? Would he dare to be Jiang Yu's boss? If he dared to do it, Jiang Yu would dare to climb the roof of his house!

So he would never do this, no matter how hard he tried. No matter how Grandma Yang cried and cursed, Zhuang Shouren remained completely unmoved.

Finally, Cui Xiaofen got a headache from the noise. She pushed open the door and walked out, rushing to the kitchen. Then, she held a kitchen knife and pushed towards Grandma Yang, "Come on, didn't you ask us to make the decision for you? I'll give it to you, and the kitchen knife will be yours!! Go! Go chop the ginger fish now, and see if she will compensate you with tiles!"

Grandma Yang was so frightened by the kitchen knife that she forgot to close her mouth. In panic, she used her hands and feet to crawl out of the farmyard, "You are crazy! Cui Xiaofen, you are crazy! I asked the team leader to make the decision for me, and you asked me to kill someone? Oh my God! The team leader's wife is crazy!" She ran while shouting.

Before long, everyone in the first team heard about this, and Cui Xiaofen seemed to have gone crazy.
