Xie Junjie didn't dare to offend Lin Na. With a smile on his face, Zhu Xuefeng also became interested when it came to dinner. He insisted on exercising every day and his hunger was the strongest. He was already hungry now.
“Baiyangdian is rich in big fish, as well as water chestnuts, lotus pods, lotus roots, and lotus root strips. Baoding is close, so we should have these things. There is no chance of eating these in the city.”
Xie Junjie almost stood up and pointed at Zhu Xuefeng's nose.
"You say you are an uncle, but you really think you are an uncle. You don't even look at what month it is now. It's almost November. Where did you get the lotus pods and lotus root strips? Besides, what kind of dishes can you make with the lotus pods? Why haven't I heard of it?"
Seeing Xie Junjie's anxiety, Zhu Xuefeng continued with a smile.
“I’m just a little arrogant, I just say I can’t get it. Of course lotus seeds are the best when eaten raw, and they can also be used to make porridge. If there are no lotus root strips or lotus pods, there must be lotus roots. This doesn’t depend on the season. It’s good to make some soup.”
“Yes, my dad said that the lotus root and pork ribs soup is delicious. Unfortunately, I have only eaten it twice, and I haven’t eaten it in the past few years.”
Xia Yuhong immediately replenished her gun. Her father is from Hubei Province and always talks about the good lotus root soup in his hometown. Unfortunately, this is the north, and Baiyangdian produces some lotus roots nearby, so it is indeed difficult to come across it.
"Yes, yes, let me be honest. Dinner has been arranged. It's normal. We'll eat whatever the guest house does. We don't have to choose. I don't know if there's lotus root soup, but the wild duck probably has it. , I heard Uncle Cui say on the phone; it has to be a little bit meaty. With so many people going there, it’s not difficult to get a wild duck.”
Listen to what Chief of Staff Cui said. You know you don’t have to look forward to dinner. Now the country has thought of so many ways and imported so much food every year to barely solve everyone’s food and clothing problem. If you want to eat better, you have to wait a few more years.
"They are just teasing you. Who doesn't know that it's not easy now, just fill your stomach. Xiaohong and I also brought some snacks. If you don't have enough, come to us."
Seeing Xie Junjie being said by the two Feeling a little anxious and angry, Lin Na couldn't help but laugh. Zhu Xuefeng and Xia Yuhong were born to be a bad couple. They cooperated so well that they could make Xie Junjie unable to step down with just a few words.
After leaving the city, I soon saw four jeeps on the roadside. These big guys are really capable. Except for Xie Junjie who got a truck, several others got a jeep each. It was no surprise that Yes, there are soldiers driving.
Everyone got out of the car and said some polite words and rearranged the vehicles. Zhu Xuefeng took the two of them into Huang Yuanshan’s car. Xie Junjie took Huang Yuanshan and the two little girls and squeezed into Xu Mingchuan and Xiao Donghai’s car. Li Bin's car opened the road at the front, and a group of people rushed to Baoding.
"Comrade, what time will we arrive in Baoding?"
It is already past six o'clock, and several people have not had dinner, so they are really hungry.
"It will take almost three and a half hours. I will definitely arrive before ten o'clock. I can drive faster during the day, but I can't run without lights at night."
Xia Yuhong knew that her partner must be hungry, so she took out the The snacks and kettle were handed to Zhu Xuefeng, the co-pilot.
“I know you get hungry easily, so I’ll eat some in advance and don’t eat too fast. If this snack is dry, just add some water.”
Zhu Xuefeng took it and divided a few pieces, “We still have it here. Yes." Lin Na said from behind.
Zhu Xuefeng divided half of it and handed it to the soldier, "I guess you haven't eaten either. Let's make some food first. It's not appropriate to drive when you're hungry."
The soldier smiled and didn't take it, pointing to the military satchel on his body, "I have some here too. , after receiving the mission, we had dinner in advance.”
“Sure enough, the troops and horses have not moved, and the food and grass go first. This is a good habit. It is not like us, who rushes at night in a daze, which really causes trouble for you. "
"It's no trouble. It's really an urgent mission. As soon as the leader gave the order, we picked up the bag and set off. Sometimes we ran for several days without normal rest or meals, so there was everything in the bag. Dry food is always available, and this kettle is also always equipped with water. "It's so hard for the soldiers in the army!" Xia Yuhong sighed in the back seat.
“This is not hard work, it’s all work. The commander is the same as us. I joined the army after liberation. I heard from the commander that they used to march overnight, but they only relied on their legs, and they had to walk all day and night. More than 200 miles of mountain road, there is no time to rest or eat, and we even sleep while marching. That’s called hardship.”
“Yes, it is really hard for the older generation to fight for liberation. Compared with them, We are so happy."
Lin Na was also sighing in the back seat. She and Xia Yuhong took a trip to the southwest. Although they didn't stay for a few days, they met the mountain people whose living conditions were far worse than those in the capital, and warmly invited them. The two ate baked potatoes. Potatoes were their staple food and dish. They only consumed two potatoes a day. There were actually some families who couldn't even afford two meals a day of baked potatoes.
"It will get better. Just like our army, which used to rely on legs, now it also has wheels. Everyone's life is the same. When people are united, the mountains will move. As long as the hearts are united, we can work together. , these days will definitely get better and better."
"Well, this little comrade is right, if I guess correctly, you designed the things on the truck behind."
"Well, think about some gadgets yourself."
"You are really amazing. You can invent things at such a young age. I heard the chief say that this thing is very amazing. Let us protect it."
It seems that these guys sold themselves in order to get a car to travel far away. Zhu Xuefeng had no choice but to let everyone see, sooner or later this day would come.
Zhu Xuefeng didn’t speak anymore. He ate a few snacks and drank a few sips of water. Seeing Zhu Xuefeng’s silence, the soldier felt that he might not talk about new inventions, so he stopped talking. It soon became dark. The three of them fell asleep in the car, and no one chatted anymore.
At around 9:40, the convoy entered Baoding, passed the guard post smoothly, and stopped directly at the guest house of Radar School.
The school occupies a large area. It should be more than 200 acres if you look at it in the dark. In addition to a three-story building behind the playground, there is also a two-story small building in the guesthouse in front of you, and there is another floor below the small building. In the basement and on both sides of the small building, like other buildings in the school, there are typical barracks.
The convoy has been parked in order, and the big truck ran to the front at some point.
"Everyone, please get off the car quickly, wash your face and go to the cafeteria to eat. We are all starving."
Li Bin shouted loudly from below, and from time to time, girls would reply with a smile, "Li Bin, you are a bad guy. No matter how you arrange it, you are not allowed to eat, and you drive at night hungry."
"Well, I didn't think this through. Aren't there snacks in every car? If you don’t give me any advice, you can’t blame me and go find your Xiao Donghai.”
A group of people laughed together. These ten people had all been playing together for a long time. They were all big and small. Only Zhu Xuefeng had not interacted with them much. Lin Na and Xia Yuhong were dealing with each other for the first time.
"Where's Xiaofeng, come here quickly. Didn't you say you were hungry when you got in the car? Let's go."
Xie Junjie got out of the car and was also shouting loudly.
"I know, I'm just hungry. I don't believe that everyone is not hungry. Whoever wants to lie is the one who is this."
Zhu Xuefeng imitated a dog face, which even attracted a lot of attention. Everyone laughed.
They were both boys and girls. The girls had met Zhu Xuefeng and had a good impression of him. This time they saw him bring two beautiful girls, and they greeted him warmly. They became one with each other in a while, and a group of people entered the cafeteria. , the canteen has been prepared for a long time, and two tables have been opened.
Although there are few meat dishes, there are many kinds. There are eight hot dishes, cold dishes and soups. The meat dishes are braised fish, a plate of dry-roasted fish and shrimps, a pickled mustard and shredded pork soup, and other They are all vegetarian dishes, and there is no wild duck at all as Xie Junjie mentioned. But everyone didn't care. They were already hungry and everything they ate tasted delicious.
Thirteen people gathered around a big table, and no one was polite. Li Bin gave the order and everyone used their chopsticks.
The small table next door had the same dishes, but two were missing. Six soldiers were eating in silence.
“Are you a few people?” Zhu Xuefeng reminded Xie Junjie quietly.
"Well, there's a man on duty on the truck. Don't worry about it. I can't even talk about this kind of thing. They have their own disciplines."
"Oh, the disciplines are really strict. This is the guest house of the army. , I still have to be on duty.”
“No way, my dad’s chief of staff arranged it, I can’t move them, just eat, they will be replaced after eating, don’t worry.”
Zhu Xuefeng looked at Lin Na and several girls who were already eating, chatting quietly, laughing happily from time to time, and stretching out his chopsticks. He always felt that the taste of this dish was a bit familiar, which was really strange.
Looking at the busy cook in the distance, Zhu Xuefeng was a little suspicious. It couldn't be such a coincidence that he would have such an encounter on his first night in Baoding. In a short time, a group of people had cleaned up the full table, not even two pieces of rice and steamed buns were left. It was like a half-grown man living in poverty.
Xie Junjie quietly went to pay for the food stamps and money. When he came back, he brought a cook. The cook wiped his hands on his apron, bent forward slightly, and asked in a low voice.
"I wonder if everyone can get used to this little old man's cooking..."
Ignoring everyone's praise for the dishes, Zhu Xuefeng was carefully observing the cook. He didn't run away. He must be this one. , that unsparing temperament is looming.
After dinner, a group of people chatted together to go to the playground for a few laps. Naturally, they were divided into two groups: boys and girls.
Zhu Xuefeng knew that many people sent by Guoming were studying here, but it was a pity that he had no chance to see them. Zhu Xuefeng wanted to know about their studies, but he couldn't enter the campus, and it was also night, so it was impossible to see people.
"Xiao Feng, your thing is really like Xiaojie said, can it float on the water? Isn't that a boat."
Xiao Donghai came over curiously and asked, looking at With a few pairs of curious eyes, Zhu Xuefeng said with a smile.
"It's not impossible to think so. It's just a boat without a cabin. You'll understand when you try to drive it tomorrow. It's very simple."
"How can it float without a cabin? Is it really unsinkable, or is it like a submarine that can be soaked in water?”
“Haizi, please stop guessing. Submarines don’t have cabins. You’re still from the navy compound. It’s embarrassing. Don’t say anything when you go out. Get to know me."
"Xu Mingchuan, you kid is looking for a fight..." Xiao Donghai and Xu Mingchuan staged a wonderful chasing match on the playground, with cheers and cheers mixed with female voices coming from behind. Most of them laughed.
After getting up early and having breakfast, the group excitedly rushed to Baiyangdian. Baiyangdian is more than 50 kilometers away from Baoding and takes more than an hour. It belongs to Anxin County. Decades later, the centenary clock has become a center of attention. New District.
There are more than 130 large and small lakes, covering an area of more than 300 square kilometers. It is indeed a good place. The convoy entered the lake in a mighty manner.
Li Bin and Xie Junjie have already led the team down to negotiate with the team cadres. This is Yu Village, Baiyangdian. Everyone has been here before when the school organized a study session with the Yanling Guerrillas.
"Secretary, this is our letter of introduction. Today we are going to do a scientific experiment here. We are in a hurry and did not greet you in advance. Please forgive me and ask for your coordination."
Zhu Xuefeng was very surprised. , the letters of introduction they took out were all formal, and the village party secretary was also very happy. After checking the certificates and letters of introduction, he said seriously.
"We promise to cooperate seriously. We can all free up this area, but there is a problem and we need to coordinate. Can any of you accompany me?"
" What is the situation? Doesn’t this letter of introduction explain the problem?”
Li Bin looked back at his motorcade. Everyone changed into military uniforms as required. Most of them looked like soldiers. The people I come into contact with here are all soldiers. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the temperament of a few of them. Even if there are a few girls, there is nothing wrong with them. Besides, for those who are engaged in research, it is normal for them to be a little different.
“No, no, comrade, you have misunderstood. Hou Wang Yue Village is currently filming a movie. You are also from the capital and have recruited many of our boats. You are going to do experiments on that lake. , it’s better to say hello to them first, or change the lake surface. Our lake is wide enough and there are three areas.”
When Li Bin heard that he wanted to deal with people from the studio, Some of them were not happy. Although there were seven real soldiers on his side, the other thirteen were not, and the villagers couldn't tell them apart. The people in the studio were all sharp-eyed, and they were just doing role-playing. He didn't want to get into trouble.
“Forget it, we don’t have any requirements on the specific location, as long as there is an open space, it will not disturb their work. By the way, what are they filming? The story of the Yanling guerrillas?”
The old party secretary was very proud, "You are really right. It is about filming the story of the Yanling guerrillas. However, I heard that this movie is about a young guerrilla. It seems to be about filming Gazi."
Gazi was a former guerrilla fighting hero in Baiyangdian, and he was a household name in this area. Later, after the movie was released, even Gazi’s hometown was renamed Gazi Village, and a memorial hall was built.
"Oh, we have come here to study and know a little bit. Since it is for publicity, we won't bother you. We can just switch to the area in front of Xiaozhang Village. There is enough space for us to experiment. Say hello to everyone. No. Our people will also be on guard when entering that area, so as not to cause any misunderstanding.”
“Don’t worry, we will arrange for the militiamen to set up another layer outside to ensure that no water duck can get in. You should rest first. Yes, I will go and set it up now, and let someone tell the comrades who are filming not to enter the experimental site by mistake.” Nothing will happen."
Seeing Li Bin insisting and seeing several soldiers carrying semi-automatic submachine guns, the village party secretary did not insist anymore.
Finally, after the village party secretary made arrangements, the villagers left the scene. With the help of the soldiers, Zhu Xuefeng directed the unloading of the large wooden box and carefully opened it in front of everyone. Two tightly wrapped people The two guys appeared in front of everyone, peeling off the protection and packaging layer by layer, and the two guys who were 40-50% similar to the big scooters revealed their true colors.
"It's really a motorcycle. Except that it doesn't have wheels, it's almost the same."
Xie Junjie pulled Xiao Donghai and whispered, "It seems that we can go smoothly this time, as long as this thing is on the water If it doesn't sink and can run, that's a miracle. You loser."
"Yes, if you can really run, I'll pay for it. It's such a big deal, I'll pay for it, haha." br>
"What are you talking about? You two, hurry up and help get it on the boat. Although this thing is small, it is really not light. Xiaofeng, is this thing really unsinkable? It's so heavy!"< br>
"Li Bin, don't blame the baby Shen for your lack of energy. Brother Feng, don't be as experienced as our Li Bin."
Tang Xiaoyue, who was not far away, saw that Li Bin was too disliked and didn't save face for his partner at all, so he started to complain.
“Hahaha.”
Li Bin said angrily, “If you don’t come to help me, look at how difficult it is for both of you to lift me.”
“Xiao Feng , I think this one is different from that competitive motorboat. The size and style are also different.”
Xu Mingchuan happened to have seen the motorboat competition. This one is obviously different. I thought it was similar. something.
“The principle is pretty much the same. They both float on the water and rely on the engine to drive the propeller. Of course, the details are a little different. The biggest difference is that that one is for competition, and this one is for fun, haha.”
The domestic motorboat project started in 1958. The first competition was held in East Lake in Wuchang. However, few people knew about the news, and there was no live TV broadcast, so the spread of information was very slow.
At this time, in everyone's eyes, the only boats that can stay on the water are traditional boats. The motorboats in the competition are generally longer, ranging from three meters to three meters, and some are even longer, and this Obviously different.
The motorboat project has begun to develop rapidly in Europe and the United States, but it is very expensive and is still a game for the aristocrats at this stage. Zhu Xuefeng borrowed the shape and function of the watercraft used for marine entertainment in later generations, and the weight has been reduced a lot. , and it is cheap, has superior performance, and has a displacement of 300 ml. It easily ran a high speed of 100 kilometers in Bahe last time. (The top speed of 300CC in later generations can exceed 140 kilometers).
Everyone carefully put a guy on the boat. Fortunately, the boat found by the village party secretary was quite suitable, and the unpackaged jet ski could fit in it.
"You guys take the boat, I will drive this one to follow you."
The second car will definitely not be able to get on the boat. Zhu Xuefeng was prepared. He took out three ponchos and three sets of orange plastic gadgets from the small box and puffed up his cheeks. , blew it hard, and after a while, three inflatable vests were completed.
"You two ride this thing with me, or follow them on the boat."
Lin Na looked at the three inflatable vests, and then looked at Xia Yuhong who was eager to try, "You two ride Well, the place is a bit crowded. Wearing this, the three of us can’t squeeze in. I’d better take a boat there and wait for you.”
Lin Na was still very sensible, so Zhu Xuefeng had to look at her apologetically, and said in a low voice, go to Xiangjiang. I will take you to the sea to have fun.”
In Lin Na’s mind, this thing should be slower than a boat with an engine. After all, it is too small, and she still wants to wait for them in front.
"Xiaohong, let Xiaona take our shoes over. You and I sit here." (End of Chapter)
