Chapter 57 Spiritual Qi

Li Zhui pinched the pancake, dipped every drop of the soup clean, stuffed it into his mouth with big gulps, and belched a little, satisfied.

Turning his head and looking around, almost all the soldiers were the same as him.

All of them looked like big cats who were satisfied.

Li Zhui quickly wiped his face, suddenly felt a little guilty, but he didn't know why he was guilty.

Old Du was sitting at the door of the kitchen, seeing the cafeteria as bustling as a bathhouse in the twelfth lunar month, he shook his head: "Today, there are quite a lot of people, but a while ago, at night, there were very few people, and they all went to some mutual aid club to drink tea. "

"I think everyone has a good heart to start this mutual aid association, but I'm afraid..."

I am afraid that some people will take advantage of it and cause disasters.

"Recently, as a cook, I have heard that the errands on the river have gone wrong, and the progress of the project has been repeatedly hindered. It's better to have fun in time, take a good rest, and make people's hearts fluctuate. If the soldiers are not active in their work, the generals will be punished more severely. The heavier the punishment, the more serious the antagonism. Hey, I see, this matter is not going to end well. .”

"The name of the Mutual Aid Association is called by the soldiers themselves. The head of the club is Li Liang. Although he is just a captain, he is not considered a strong player in the army in terms of bravery, but he is loyal to others. He is called Xiao Mengchang. He is different from other generals and has a high prestige."

Speaking of Li Liang, Lao Du had a complex expression on his face.

"Li Liang is doing his best to appease the soldiers' emotions now. He is a person who makes people feel like a spring breeze, but I don't know if this appeasement is useful."

Gu Xiang chuckled: "I don't care what it is, whether it is useful or not, who the leader is, and what it likes to do at other times. It can't be done at night, it's my special session."

Perhaps it is because of the magical power of the night, diners can open up their hearts more, and when night falls, Gu Xiang always gets more food spots.

The moonlight is deep, and the shadows of the trees are whirling.

Li Zhui mixed in the chaotic team as usual and headed up the river embankment.As a soldier, he is used to how to work lazily and not let people catch him. He doesn't work much these days... But so what?
Not to mention the good times, the days are coming to an end.

A trace of despair and ruthlessness flashed through Li Zhui's mind.

Some of the generals in front were exiled to the northwest, and some went to Salmon Island. If they really fell into this kind of land, it would be worse than death.

"It's a shit job...it's really hard, why not..."

"One two, one two, hey hey hey, up-up-down!"

Going around the bushes, Li Zhui was stunned, and the soldiers around him looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what night it was.

The embankment was full of fires, illuminating half the sky in red, and countless soldiers were working in an orderly manner. Li Zhui saw the group of young soldiers who were most active in slacking off, Little Osmanthus, Little Walnut and the others. The five of them walked fast together carrying logs and shouting chant. All of them had flushed cheeks and sweat profusely, obviously exerting a lot of effort.

The others didn't give in too much, and there was an inexplicably vigorous spirit on the entire embankment.

"Give way!"

Wang Ermu ran towards him with big strides, holding a log as thick as a thigh, and Li Zhui hurriedly took two steps back.

He looked around, feeling bewildered.

Shocked by the scorching atmosphere, a group of soldiers were at a loss for a moment.

"Why are there still people coming? We have enough people, you can rest, you don't need to work, you are not needed!"

Li Zhui: "..."

There is a conspiracy!
Li Zhui never believed in the fact that the sky was full of pies. He turned his head to look around, his nose twitched, and he turned sharply to stare at the row of thatched huts on the embankment.

At this time, there were small jars of different shapes in the thatched shed. The jars were sealed with oil paper, and it was impossible to see what they were, but there was a large jar on the fire next to it, and the fragrance was overflowing.

He walked a few steps, and saw Gu Chulian walking over with light steps, lowered his head and chuckled, said a few words to Wang Ermu, then took out two long chopsticks and gently picked out two large pieces from the big jar. The square, oily, transparent red pork belly was put in a bowl and pushed over.

Wang Ermu couldn't wait to take a bite, and his whole face stretched out in an instant, as if it had blossomed into a flower.

Qian Wenshu, who was also lowering his head and eating fiercely beside him, squinted his eyes and said intoxicatedly: "It melts in the mouth, it is fragrant but not greasy, good meat!"

Li Zhuiren walked towards the side of the thatched shed involuntarily. A short distance away, he saw Chef Gu take out two small ribs and two chicken legs from the jar, and distributed them to the soldiers who came one after another. Slip down to eat meat and gnaw bones.

The bones are all crispy, and it tastes special, not worse than meat.

The river wind blows, blowing the rice fragrance everywhere, and the whole river is full of rich and attractive fragrance.

Qian Wenshu ate the delicious, soft and rotten meat, without affecting his speech at all: "Ermu, you still have five grade points left, what do you want?"

As soon as Wang Ermu bent down, he picked up the small pot on the ground and put it in his arms. Obviously, he had stared at the county level for a long time, and immediately attracted the envious and jealous eyes of the surrounding soldiers.

There are two crispy fish in this jar.

Compared with meat, fish sounds a bit inconspicuous, but Gu Xiang simmered this fish on a low fire for half a day, and did not dare to leave it for a while. From the head to the tail of the fish in the pot, you can taste more than a dozen flavors in one bite, but the bones are crispy and the meat is never rotten, and it is very tasty.

But whoever has tasted this crispy fish, there is no one in his heart who is not obsessed with it.

Li Zhui was a clever man, he could tell after a while, and followed everyone's line of sight to find a dilapidated wooden sign standing at the pavilion on the river embankment.

There are quite a few words on the wooden sign, and there are not many words that Li ratified, but they are barely enough to understand.

Chef Gu actually listed all kinds of work on the river into categories, from heavy to light, from complex to simple, and set the corresponding grade points.

Completing the job, doing the right steps, following orders, being efficient, helping others, etc. will all increase grade points.

Corresponding grade points will be deducted for failure to complete work, cheating, cheating, doing wrong things, disobedience to instructions, etc.

Obviously, someone is responsible for the statistical work, and they look very serious.

As for the use of grade points... Li Zhui looked back at the greasy pieces of meat in Wang Ermu's bowl, how could he not understand?

Gum!

It's really not that he is greedy, that color, that smell, that taste, there is nothing that does not attract people, the night is getting deeper, and the stomach is already empty, seeing other people's mouth full of fat, who can resist not being tempted?

Li Zhui put aside all thoughts of being lazy in an instant, and looked at the hard-working soldiers with scorching eyes.

He considers himself a clever person, so of course he should be the most efficient one when working.

As for Captain Li's words about having a meeting tonight, he put it behind him without even thinking about it.

There are at least dozens of people going to the Mutual Aid Club, there is no more than one person, and no less than one person, it doesn't matter whether you go or not.
