Traveling through the ages with the hotel, being doted on by four brothers

Chapter 169 You really don’t know how to enjoy it
The seven educated youths assigned this time include two locals, two from Beijing, and the remaining three are from Tianjin, Shanghai and Han. It’s no wonder that this time they are not on the same train or on the same railway line. Of course, there is no way to get on the same train.
After everyone introduced themselves, it became less awkward. It was probably because this group of intellectuals were a little older and therefore more mature, and there was no such thing as yin and yang.
The captain continued, "Our production team has single rooms and double rooms. Single rooms cost one yuan a month, and double rooms cost one yuan a month. You two girls can discuss living together."
Seeing that there are more and more educated youths, if they all want to live in single rooms, there are simply not enough single rooms. It seems that we have to seize the time to build another row of single rooms. There will definitely be educated youths coming later.
"Comrade Xia." Xiao Tiantian called Xia Chan.
Xia Chan knew that Xiao Tiantian wanted to ask whether it was reliable for her to live with Yuan Bingbing. It seemed that Xiao Yunfan had told their siblings about Xia Chan, which meant that they all knew about Xia Chan.
Xia Chan nodded gently. Yuan Bingbing was a very upright person, and they could take care of each other even if they lived together.
Seeing Xia Chan nodding, Xiao Tiantian said to the captain, "Captain, if Yuan Zhiqing agrees to live together, then Yuan Zhiqing and I will live in a double room, so that each of us will only have to pay seventy-five cents a month. Just the rent will be fine.”
Yuan Bingbing also nodded, "Okay."
Xiao Tiantian is already nineteen years old and doesn't look childish. She shouldn't cause any trouble to me. The two of us can live together and take care of each other.
There were five male educated youth left, two in a room. Only Xiao Fengfeng lived in a single room. If he lived in a double room, it would be inconvenient for him to take care of his sister. It would also not be good if his sister went into his room and was alone with another male educated youth when he was not around.
Seeing that this batch of educated youth were so sensible, the team leader felt relieved. He was really mad at the previous batches of educated youth. They could not live in peace and had to stir up some trouble.
If there wasn't a person named Xia Chan in the production team whose abilities won the favor of Secretary Mo, their Yong'an Production Team would probably have been put on Secretary Mo's blacklist.
It was not until the evening that the tractor drove into the team leader's house. The team leader asked Aunt Lin to cook for everyone, and then he took the educated youth to the team headquarters, arranged rooms for them, and gave them the first month's rations, and then took them to the educated youth site.
After entering their respective rooms and putting down their luggage, they went to the captain's house for dinner.
Xia Chan had long rejected Aunt Lin's offer to stay for dinner and went home. She still had some things she had "bought" in her backpack. If she didn't go home early, what would happen if these things went bad?
As soon as Xia Chan entered the house, Xia Qi took the backpack. Xia Chan asked suspiciously, "Brother, you haven't eaten yet, have you?"
Xia Qi did not answer, but asked, "Why did it take so long this time?"
"The two trains arrived at different times, so we had to wait a little longer." Xia Chan went to the kitchen to get some water to wash her hands and face to cool herself down. Although the temperature was still a little low at night in June, she was still a little hot after being busy outside all day.
Afterwards, Xia Chan took out the fresh meat from the backpack and handed it to Xia Qi, "Brother, hurry up and cook the braised pork and bamboo shoots! I bought it at noon, luckily it's not smelly."
This time the captain was with her, so after she took the things out, she did not hide them in the space again, for fear that the captain would find out, so the meat was hidden in the backpack for several hours.
Xia Qi went to the kitchen, grabbed a few dried bamboo shoots and soaked them in warm water, then began to cut the meat into large pieces, just like mahjong tiles. Xia Chan was packing things in the backpack in the room. Maybe it was because it was June, the peak season for strawberries and cherries in the 21st century, or maybe it was because these two fruits were sold directly from the place of production, so the strawberries and cherries on the "Crossing Mall" were very cheap during this period.
Strawberries cost five yuan a box, and a box is exactly one kilogram. They look clean and tidy.
The same is true for cherries.
Xia Chan took advantage of the low price and placed orders for one thousand boxes each, intending to sell them directly in the winter when there is a shortage of fruit. The colors of ripe strawberries and cherries are very beautiful, and they will definitely be sold out as soon as they are taken out.
If we connect with the black market in the county now and sell it there by the end of the year, we should be able to make more money!
Today, Xia Chan took out five boxes of strawberries and five boxes of cherries each, because she has many brothers and their appetites are big, so if she took too little, they would probably not be enough to eat.
Cherries can be stored longer than strawberries, so Xia Chan saved the cherries for tomorrow and ate strawberries today. She took the strawberries to the kitchen and washed them with water. Xia Qi saw them and said curiously, "This is red, so it should be a berry, right?"
"Yes, this is a strawberry, which is different from raspberries and blackberries picked from the mountains." Xia Chan picked off the leaves from the strawberry, put one into Xia Qi's mouth, and asked with a smile, "How is it? Is it delicious?"
"It smells delicious, but a little sour." Xia Qi frowned.
"Hmph, you really don't know how to enjoy life. Coffee is bitter, chocolate is bitter, and strawberries are sour." Xia Chan curled her lips and stuffed one into her own mouth. She then stuffed one into each of her other three brothers, washed the remaining strawberries, put them on a plate, and placed them on the dining table.
Eating some fruit before or after meals can help relieve greasiness.
Soon Xia Qi finished cooking the braised pork and bamboo shoots. Because there were a lot of bamboo shoots, the stew filled a whole pot. Then everyone sat together to eat. Xia Chan said as they ate, "These strawberries don't last long. You can all eat more later. A dozen each will be almost gone."
The brothers originally wanted to save it for Xia Chan to eat slowly, but this thing was not durable, so rather than let it go bad, they might as well eat it. Anyway, the family’s money was in the drawer, so Xia Chan could use the money to buy it whenever he wanted to eat it.
Even if I used all the money in the drawer to buy food, they wouldn't say a word.
Who makes them rich?
This is their confidence.
Moreover, if she develops a bad habit of spending money lavishly, she won't be able to be deceived by those stingy men in the future. Xia Chan will definitely look down on men who are not as good as them, her brothers.
They don't want their sister to marry into another family and support someone else's family.
They can't control other people's girls, but the girls in their family should live a free, carefree and unrestrained life. As long as she is happy, that's all.
The five brothers and sisters enjoyed themselves so much while eating the delicious braised pork and bamboo shoots and the sweet and sour strawberries.
