Far away in Moscow

Chapter 133
A few minutes later, Hu Yi waited downstairs for Fang Qing, and Anna hurried over by taxi.The three discussed briefly, and came to the dormitory's chief room management office with a feeling of apprehension.

The door of the office was open, and the sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets and packing things came from the room. It sounded like the people inside were very restless.

"Please come in." Hearing Fang Qing's knock on the door, the chubby house manager stood by the cabinet and cast a sideways glance: "What's the matter?"

"Hello!" Fang Qing smiled brightly: "We came to visit you, I heard that you were very busy a few days ago."

"Busy?" The head housekeeper frowned: "What do you want to say?"

"Fire, building No. 6." Fang Qing explained with a substandard Russian pronunciation: "There are many things to deal with, I think you must be very busy!"

The chief housekeeper snorted sullenly, and closed an open drawer beside him with his hands: "Are you here to see me making a joke?"

"No! No! You misunderstood!" Fang Qing panicked, and hurriedly handed over the two bottles of wine in his hand: "I'm here to give you this, Chinese baijiu, when you ate in my shop a few days ago, you said it was very delicious!"

"That's right, the wine is very good." The head housekeeper turned around and walked back to the desk and sat down heavily on the chair: "Listen, I'm very happy if you deliver the wine. But if you want me to help you with something, please Take it back."

Fang Qing didn't expect that the other party would stop the conversation as soon as he opened his mouth, and he was speechless for a while: "Ah, no, no, I can't take it back..."

Anna tugged at his clothes from behind, stepped forward and said, "Yuri, you must know that we are here for the hotel."

"Oh, dear Semyonovna, I know, of course I know." The chief housekeeper opened his round eyes with a playful face: "But how can I help you?"

"It's very simple, we want to open for business." Anna smiled very cautiously: "Actually, this matter has been discussed a long time ago, hasn't it? It was just interrupted by unexpected events. Now we have no gas kitchen utensils. I plan to switch to an electric stove, it should be fine, right?"

"No, no, there is a problem, and the problem is very serious!" The chief housing manager stared at her with a beard and stare: "You have passed certain approval procedures by improper means, and even concealed the pre-opening fire inspection. This problem Sooner or later, you will be held accountable, and those who help you to make troubles will be unlucky!"

"I understand, that's why I hope you can come forward to make things easier." Anna smiled and at the same time quickly glanced at Fang Qing.

Fang Qing understood, and then reached out his hand and took out his passport from his pocket and handed it over: "Dear Mr. House Manager, the chef of our restaurant needs a job in the hotel to apply for a visa on arrival. Please see, this is his certificate..."

The chief housing officer stared at Fang Qing coldly, took the passport, opened it, and quickly glanced at it. There was five hundred dollars in it.

"No, this is your ID." He swallowed lightly, and returned the passport intact: "Listen, don't look for me again, I can't help you with this matter."

"Please think of a way!" Fang Qing rubbed his hands anxiously: "We have already rented the house, if we can't open it—"

"It can be opened." The chief house manager spread his hands: "Just can't open a restaurant! Do you understand? Go apply for something else! Shop! Laundry room! Library! Everything is good—except restaurants! This is the only thing I can help you think about." way!"

"How can we do that?" Fang Qing asked anxiously: "We are chefs, we only know how to cook!"

"That's not my problem." The chief house manager stood up and sighed: "I can't do anything about your hotel. Do you understand? I can't do anything!"

Fang Qing lowered his head sadly.Seeing that Anna had nothing to say, Hu Yi leaned forward and smiled: "Then look, who else can we ask for help now?"

"Anyway, it's useless to find me." The chief housekeeper put his fat belly on the edge of the table, and pressed his hands and ten fingers on the table: "Let me tell you, young man, the principal of Friendship University has resigned. Go to court for the fire! I'm going to pack up and leave soon, so don't come to me again. If you still don't give up, try your luck after the new house manager takes office."

"Really?" All three of them were taken aback: "Are you leaving?"

"That's right, didn't you see that I was packing my things?" The head housekeeper shrugged, and lifted Fang Qing's two bottles of wine from the table: "Do you want to take this wine back?"

"No, this is for you." Fang Qing smiled bitterly: "Let's just treat it as...a parting gift."

Walking out of the housing management office dejectedly, the three of them looked at me and I looked at you, but they all lost their minds.

"It seems that we can only wait for the new house manager to take office." Anna slightly stretched her brows, "I'll go home first, and call any time if there is any news."

Fang Qing also went back in dismay.Hu Yi thought that today was the day when Xiang Nan was discharged from the hospital, and he, as a brother, should always express it, so he planned to ask Yu Feifei and Xiang Nan to go to the dormitory to celebrate in a small area at night.

Although he has worked as a kitchen assistant and earned some money from takeout, Hu Yi's cooking skills are mediocre, and he is not good at frying and frying. Only the stew and stew are barely good.So he ran to the market to buy some cartilage ribs, and prepared to stew a pot of pork ribs with mushrooms as the main course.

Back in the dormitory, go to the kitchen to cut the ribs, prepare all the side dishes, soak the mushrooms, Hu Yi puts the big pot on the electric stove, and simmers on a low heat.

After watching TV in the house for half an hour, the aroma of the pork ribs has already drifted into the room along the corridor.Hu Yi got up and walked into the kitchen, poured the soaked shiitake mushrooms into the pot, and turned down the heat a little.

Cook for a while and it's ready to go.Hu Yi stood by the window and lit a cigarette. Thinking of Fang Qing's unopened small restaurant, Xiang Nan's new room, and the only $[-] he had left, he couldn't help feeling depressed.

Staring at the night scene outside the window in a daze, suddenly a Russian female voice came from behind: "Excuse me, is this your knife?"

The sound is crisp and sweet, like a gust of wind blowing through a wind chime, like strings of ice crystals falling into the water.

"Yes." Hu Yi's whole body was slightly numb, and when he turned his head to look, he felt a numbness rushing from the top of his head to the bottom of his feet, and then turned back to the top of his head, as if his whole body had been electrified in an instant.

A fairy-like woman was standing there, looking at the big kitchen knife on the chopping board with a little restraint.

As beautiful as a fairy, this is the only word Hu Yi can use to describe her.No, it should be a little more beautiful than the fairies in the sky.

The fairy's expression was still cautious: "Can I borrow it? I need to cut bread."

"Of course! Oh no, this is for cutting raw meat, wait a minute!" Hu Yi hurried back to the house to get a sharp knife for cutting cooked food: "Here is this for you."

"Thank you." The fairy lightly took the knife, with a slight smile on her lips.

"No...you're welcome." Hu Yi was disturbed by her seemingly indifferent expression change, and suddenly felt that his eyes had nowhere to look, and his hands and feet had no place to rest. In a panic, he took out a cigarette case and handed it over: "You, You, would you like one?"
