My courtyard shelter

After the snowstorm, Sydney was almost paralyzed. The first task facing everyone was to clear the snow on the roads in time.

Otherwise, residents could not even go out, let alone work and live.

In addition, Sydney's industrial areas also suffered heavy losses. Many factories and construction sites suffered a devastating disaster.

Fortunately, Sydney's local industry is not developed.

However, some industrial and mining enterprises related to the national economy and people's livelihood, such as coal mines, power plants, seawater desalination plants and plant factories, finally survived under the full escort of relevant departments.

The overall loss is still controllable.

October 9th, Daxia National Day.

On this special day, Sydney officially announced a general mobilization, recruited more than 500,000 volunteers in a short period of time, and launched a vigorous "snow-clearing" campaign.

Naturally, no one from the old Xu family signed up, but Xu Dong joined forces with the Sydney Bakery to donate 100 million yuan to this action, which currently ranks first among all donations.

Two days later, the snow in China basically stopped.

Xu Dong immediately made two calls to the capital, one to Yu Maolin, saying that the overall loss of the bakery was not large, and there was nothing to worry about at the moment.

The other call was to Ye Hui.

Xinke Seaweed was not so lucky. Although Xu Dong supported a large number of canned food, sometimes manpower cannot overcome nature. The entire cultivation base still lost about one-tenth of the factory buildings.

There are about fifty of them.

"Mr. Xu, I'm sorry."

Ye Hui blamed herself very much.

"Forget it, you can't blame it all. Compared with other companies, you have done quite well. I am very satisfied."

Xu Dong comforted her quickly.

He was not being polite. The news just reported that, taking the plant factories in the capital area as an example, about one-third of the factories were not spared in this snowstorm, which was much larger than his own company.

"We could have done better."

Ye Hui was annoyed.

As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a big reward.

Relying on the 50 tons of canned food and high wages, Xinke Seaweed hired an additional 2,000 temporary workers. Now it seems that it is still too conservative. It should add another 2,000 people.

After all, the maintenance cost of these more than 50 factories is hundreds of millions of yuan, which is far from comparable to that salary.

"No casualties are already a blessing in disguise. Some things cannot be forced."

Ye Hui felt better: "Mr. Xu, what should we do next? Does the collapsed factory need to be repaired immediately? Or wait and see?"

"What do you think?"

"I suggest waiting a while. Winter is coming soon. We don't know if there will be a snowstorm later. We should be careful."

Ye Hui looked very cautious.

"Wait? Then won't the production capacity be affected?"

Xu Dong couldn't help but frowned.

"There's nothing we can do about it. If there's another snowstorm, the loss will be even greater."

"Can't we change it to a sloping roof?"

Xu Dong told his plan.

"It's OK, but the cost will increase a lot. Maybe it won't take two years for the volcanic ash to dissipate on its own. The reconstruction is not worth the loss."

Ye Hui explained.

Compared to the huge reconstruction cost, the labor cost is cheaper, and she would rather hire more temporary workers.

"Okay, let's do as you say."

Xu Dong thought about it and finally agreed to the other party's plan.

Since this year, Xinke Haizao has been spending too much money, and it really needs to slow down.

Just after hanging up the phone, Xiao Huzi staggered over, and he hurried forward to pick up the little guy.

"Second Grandpa, I want to eat barbecue."

Xiao Huzi looked at the second grandpa eagerly.

Xu Dong pinched the little guy's face: "Who taught you to come here?"

"It was my uncle. My uncle said that my second uncle promised me that he would make barbecue for me."

Xu Dong patted his head. In the air-raid shelter before, he seemed to have really promised to make the little guy happy, but he forgot about it later.

"Okay, my second uncle will make barbecue for you at noon, okay?"

"Okay, I want to eat roasted lamb."

Little Tiger clapped his hands and shouted.

Xu Dong shook his head: "The mutton at home has been eaten, can my second uncle make you roasted rabbit?"

"Roasted rabbit? Is roasted rabbit delicious?"

Little Tiger swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Of course it's delicious, it's so delicious."

"Wow, I want to eat roasted rabbit."

Xu Dong put down Little Tiger and suddenly shouted to the outside of the door: "Dabao, come in."

"Dad, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Dabao felt embarrassed as if he was caught.

"We'll make roasted rabbits for lunch. Your uncle can skin rabbits. Call him over."

"Okay, I'll go now."

Dabao said excitedly.

...

An hour later, Xu Bin came to the greenhouse with skinned rabbits. This time, he slaughtered two male rabbits, weighing about five or six pounds in total.

"Old Third, the rabbits are ready."

Xu Dong quickly put down his work and took the rabbits. There were more than a dozen people in their family, and two rabbits were definitely not enough.

He was just preparing other ingredients.

Several children were also busy helping out, especially Lele, who had learned from his own chef for several months, and his cooking skills became more and more sophisticated.

Xu Bin couldn't help but suggest: "Lao San, can you bake just one rabbit?"

"Do you have an idea?"

"Well, roasting a rabbit is too wasteful. It's both woody and dry. Why don't you save one to make hot pot at night?"

Xu Dong shook his head: "How can one portion be enough? It's not enough to fill your teeth. If you want to eat rabbit meat hot pot, we can make it later."

Rabbits grow quickly and reproduce quickly.

In just a few months, when the female rabbit gives birth to her baby rabbits, their family will have endless rabbits to eat.

"Grandpa, the roasted rabbit is delicious."

The little tiger ran over to save his grandfather's thigh.

"Okay, okay, let's eat roast rabbit."

Xu Bin immediately forgot about rabbit hot pot.

Near noon, the barbecue officially started.

Since his own chef has not come to work yet, Xu Dong can only go into battle himself, and Lele serves as his deputy. Both of them are experienced veterans, so there is no need to worry about overturning.

After a while, the smell of meat filled the greenhouse.

First of all, dozens of skewers of beef are grilled. The most important thing in their family is beef. Who knows that the beautiful country is rich in beef!

For wealthy people in beautiful countries, beef is their daily staple food.

Unfortunately, with the eruption of the Sulfonite volcano, these good days have come to an end. Coupled with the turmoil in the Europa region, it may not be easy to eat meat again.

Even if you have money, you can't find a place to buy it.

Fortunately, their family raised four beef cattle, which was enough to eat, but they could no longer squander as much as before.

Lele brought the first plate of grilled beef skewers to Pan's mother. This was the way to treat guests. After all, the person in front of her was the only guest in their house.

"Auntie, please try my handiwork."

"Why is this so embarrassing? Let your grandma..."

Xu Ma waved her hand quickly: "We are all one family, you're welcome."

Mother Pan smiled, and then distributed the beef skewers on the plate to several juniors one by one.

"Thank you, aunt."

Dabao and others shouted.

Xiao Huzi echoed: "Thank you, Auntie."

After all, the little guy is only two or three years old. He usually likes to imitate adults' speech, and he can understand even a momentary slip of the tongue.

"Hahaha……"

Everyone burst into laughter.

Xu Jingyi quickly corrected her: "Xiao Huzi, this is grandma, don't you recognize her?"

"Grandma? I want grandma."

Little Huzi stretched out his hands towards grandma.

Pan's mother quickly hugged the little guy and sat on her lap.

After a short interlude, the barbecue continued.

Next, Xu Dong grilled a dozen more sea fish, and sent them directly to Captain Zhou and others after grilling. Although they couldn't have lunch together, they still let everyone have a taste.

The security team members were naturally flattered.

An hour later, Xu Dong tried the rabbit meat and finally confirmed that the rabbit was ready.

"Okay, it's time to eat!"

Seeing this scene, the little tiger immediately slipped off his grandma's lap, ran to his second grandpa on his short legs, and drooled while staring at the roasted rabbit.

"Grandpa, I want to eat roast rabbit."

"Don't come here, be careful of getting burned."

Xu Dong conveniently cut off a rabbit leg, and then handed the plate with the rabbit leg to Pan's mother.

"Come back quickly, grandma will feed you rabbit meat."

Mother Pan waved to Xiao Huzi.

"Grandma, I'm here."

The little tiger ran to grandma anxiously.

Xu Dong cut the remaining rabbit meat into more than a dozen pieces, paired it with vegetable salad and prepared sauce, and divided it into portions for each person. The taste was amazing.

Everyone ate heartily.

"Mom, is rabbit meat okay?"

Xu Ma couldn't help but nod: "It's quite fragrant when roasted, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, not bad."

"Third brother, you have nothing to say about your skills."

Xu Bin had a mouthful of rabbit meat and a mouthful of white wine. He was happily competing with the gods. He still knows how to live in his family!

“The portion is just too small.”

Dabao said with a pity look on his face.

Xu Ma looked at the half piece of rabbit meat in her hand and wanted to give it to her eldest grandson, but she was afraid that he would dislike it. After all, Dabao was not a child anymore and knew how to be hygienic.

Lele handed over her share of unused rabbit meat. What she enjoyed more was the cooking process, and she was still losing weight, so she didn't mind eating it.

"Give me my share!"

"Really? Thank you, second sister."

Dabao took it over hurriedly.

Yang Lina immediately frowned and said, "Eat less. You just ate so much, don't overeat."

"Mom, I can eat it."

Dabao patted his belly proudly.

Since the eruption of the Sulfur Stone Volcano, the "Yuan World" has been completely disconnected, and he is very bored at home. As a result, he now only has one hobby, which is eating.

"Do you still want to lose weight?"

Yang Lina said angrily.

Xu's mother interrupted: "There's not much fat in rabbit meat, so just let him eat it! Besides, he will be in the third grade of junior high school soon. He has a heavy study load, so it doesn't matter if he eats fatter."

"Yes, Nana, Dabao is not fat like this."

Pan's mother helped to persuade.

"I'm 1.5 meters tall and weigh almost 130 kilograms. Isn't this considered fat?"

Yang Lina sighed helplessly.

Dabao immediately argued: "Mom, I am 1.55 meters tall now, not 1.5 meters tall."
