Chapter 6: Joy

"Sir, Director Huang said that his family has opened a restaurant in the city, and he wants me to go to the restaurant to teach the cooks there to cook, do you think I should go or not?" As soon as Tang Cheng sent Huang Hanju away, Ma Fatzi came to Tang Cheng. Knowing that the senior official who came today was the brother-in-law of his own family official, Ma Fatzi was a little moved by Huang Hanju's invitation, but he still needed Tang Cheng's approval.

"Go ahead, since it's my brother-in-law's will, you can go. Yingzi can also cook, anyway, we eat a big pot of rice, and we don't pay attention to what is full of color and flavor, but we can't give Lang your ability as a chef. Tang Cheng was open-minded, and directly agreed to Ma Fatzi to go to the restaurant in the city, anyway, he just went to teach the chef of the restaurant temporarily, and the restaurant would not detain Ma Fatzi and not let him come back.

Lin Ying and the others originally didn't believe in Huang Hanju's ability, but no one expected that before dinner, Huang San came to Dabanqiao with two trucks full of them. "Second master, the master said that these are all for you here, if you see that there is still something missing, tell me, and I will go back and buy it for you. When I was about to go out, my wife also said that I couldn't shorten the things on your side, and asked me to tell the second master to take care of my injuries. ”

Huang San obviously came with Mrs. Huang's advice, and specifically looked at the injuries on Tang Cheng's body, and it seemed that he had gone back to reply carefully to Mrs. Huang. "Madame said, half of the restaurant opened by the family has the second master, and the transportation company in the new lane also has the second master. Mrs. said that she is a female dependent, some things are not easy to come forward, I thought that when the second master came to Kunming, you could help the family, but I didn't expect that the second master would come to be the stationmaster of this Laoshizi, but Mrs. said that she would come with your wishes. ”

Huang San's words were obviously a bit out of Tang Cheng's expectations, how could there be a restaurant and a transportation company in this. Xu saw Tang Cheng's doubts, Huang San smiled, "Second master, before our family moved to Wuhan, didn't you just take a sum of money to Mrs., and later when you came to Wuhan, you asked people to send some money, and those money had already been invested in the restaurant by Mrs. When Mrs. first built this restaurant, she said that she was half of your family with the second master, and the master also knew about it. ”

"Hehe, I didn't expect that my Tang Cheng is also a rich man now." After listening to Huang San's explanation, Tang Cheng laughed very comfortably, he didn't have much concept of money since he was a child. If it weren't for the fact that he could have more money to defend himself when he came all the way south, he would never have delayed his trip in order to clear out the bandits and make money, and if it weren't for Huang San's mention of the money he sent to the Huang family when he was in Wuhan, Tang Cheng might have forgotten about it.

Huang San didn't dare to stay for too long, just told Tang Cheng about his wife and two children, and when the people he brought unloaded the car, Huang San left in a hurry with the people. Tang Cheng didn't ask Huang San if something had happened to the Huang family recently, he knew that even if he asked, Huang San might not be able to say, and besides, he was still an injured person who needed to recover, even if he knew the reason, he might not be able to help.

"Great, these uniforms and quilts are brand new, haha, I have a steel helmet now." Lin Ying, who was forced by Tang Cheng to shave his head, has been living on a bun cloth these days, and he has been arguing with Zhang Xiaobao and Liu Shishi for several days. This will be happily showing off with the new steel helmet that has been turned out of the box, although it is already the smallest steel helmet, but wearing it on Lin Ying's head will still cover his eyes, but Lin Ying himself does not feel in the way.

The things that Huang San brought with him were all packed in boxes, and they were all stacked in the yard, and with Tang Cheng's consent, Lin Ying wore his newly acquired steel helmet and led people to unpack them. Tang Cheng didn't come over to join in the excitement, because he had the list of materials brought by Huang San in his hand, and the list in his hand had the quantity of everything. Huang Hanju allocated materials according to the establishment of 60 people, all the military uniforms, military shoes, and quilts were all 60 people, and even 60 steel helmets were brought.

In addition to the equipment and clothing commonly used by these soldiers, Huang Hanju also brought some medicines to Tang Cheng, especially the anti-inflammatory drugs for treating external injuries, which were enough for Tang Cheng to use for a long time. "Yingzi, first open those boxes with red circles, which contain canned meat and compressed biscuits." Tang Cheng and they have never lacked food all the way south, especially the meat has not been broken, but no one will think that they eat too much meat, hearing Tang Cheng say that there is canned meat in the box painted with red circles, Lin Ying immediately came to his senses.

"I know that you are a liar" There were only two boxes circled in red, and Lin Ying led someone to open the box only to find that one was filled with cigarettes, and the other was filled with wine. Taking a cigarette thrown by Lin Ying, Tang Cheng looked at it carefully before he said quietly, "These old men who nest in the rear can really enjoy it, the cigarettes they smoke are the best Hardmen, when we wanted to smoke in Nanjing City, we could only smoke old and young cards, and sometimes we could only find cigarettes from the corpses of Japanese soldiers." ”

Lin Ying couldn't comprehend the meaning of Tang Cheng's words, so he only cared about opening those boxes to determine the contents and quantities of the boxes, more and more boxes were opened, and Lin Ying's cheers were also high and low, which made people's hearts feel happy. "Are you going to rob a passing caravan?" Liu Shishi, who came back from the city, was also surprised when they saw the boxes that were dismantled by Lin Ying, when they left the yard in the morning, there were no such things in the yard.

"It's someone from the Huang family, you didn't leave long in the morning, Huang Hanju came, and he got these things for us." Tang Cheng casually threw a pack of cigarettes to Hou San, and his words made Liu Shishi and the others, who had just returned, look happy. Being able to get so many things without spending money is undoubtedly a good thing for them now, especially when Hou San and the others saw the box full of wine, the smile on their faces became even more obvious.

"What is the official position of Head Huang now? He can get us so many things, the official must not be small, with him in Kunming to protect us, we will have a better life in the future. "Except for Tang Cheng, the only person here who is familiar with Huang Hanju is Liu Shishi. When Tang Cheng was preparing for the war in Macheng, he handed him and Jiujin to the Huang family and took them to Wuhan first, if you want to say that you are familiar with those people in the Huang family, even Tang Cheng may not be able to compare to Liu Shishi.

"I don't know if I'm promoted or not, but now I'm going to call Brother Huang and brother-in-law, but I didn't expect Mrs. Huang to be surnamed Tang." As soon as Tang Cheng said this, Hou San and the others showed ecstasy, what it meant to have a brother-in-law with great powers, they who were used to going to the rivers and lakes could not be clearer. For a long time, except for Tang Cheng, who knew about Huang Jiazi and Kunming, Liu Shishi and Mu Lianshan were all in Kunming, and now that they had come to Kunming, Tang Cheng no longer thought about hiding this matter, not to mention that he had already regarded Hou San and them as his own people.

"My godbrother-in-law was recognized in Macheng, when we had just been evacuated from Mengcheng to Macheng to rest, he would be the head of the garrison in Macheng, but he was bought with money. I helped him clear out the bandits around him and helped him train his troops, but he was brought to the Southwest Branch, so the Huang family moved to Kunming in its entirety. Their power in this office is still very great, and we are now under my brother-in-law's hands, which means that as long as we don't provoke too much right and wrong, no one will care about us in Kunming. ”

"That's good, it looks like I could open a plot of land in the backyard and grow some herbs." When Mu Lianshan said this, he deliberately squinted at this Tang City, and learned that the Huang family still had some power in Kunming, so Mu Lianshan began to remember what Tang Cheng said about opening a Chinese medicine clinic in the city. If Tang Cheng didn't understand Mu Lianshan's intention of squinting at himself, but Mu Lianshan didn't know what to ask, Tang Cheng just looked left and right and pretended not to understand, and Mu Lianshan, who was angry, turned around and left.

"First of all, send out the military uniform and quilt uniform, since everyone has already had a haircut and a medicinal bath, it is time to change into a new military uniform. The medicine is taught to Mr. Mu to manage, and the remaining excess things are put into the warehouse first, and when we are free, we will think about what to do with these things. "All the boxes in the courtyard have been opened by Lin Ying and others, except for the clothes, they are canned food, rice, flour, grain and oil and other daily things, but there are no weapons and ammunition at all.

"There are four more bicycles here, and Glasses will definitely ride this thing, so let Glasses take care of these bikes first, and when he has time, he will teach you a few to ride bicycles, it is very convenient to ride this thing into the city, and it is cleaner than the horses you ride all over the streets." If Tang Cheng didn't say it, except for him and Tan Fei in this courtyard, the other people really didn't know what the bicycle leaning against the corner was. Hearing Tang Cheng say that this was a bicycle, Hou San and the others immediately threw down the new military uniforms that they had grabbed in their hands, and all rushed to Tan Fei's side to line up to learn to ride a bicycle, but Tan Fei refused on the pretext that it was dark.

Two truckloads of supplies almost filled one of their warehouses in Tang City, but a few holes in the top of the warehouse looked at Tang Cheng very worried, once it rained, what would happen to the contents of the warehouse? "It's time to get ready to repair our yard, we now have a lot of supplies, and we need a place where we can store them well. They have gone into the city today to find the masons, and when they buy the materials for the repair tomorrow, we will first repair the warehouse and the houses of the people, and then the courtyard wall and the gate, this is where we live, and we must make it better. ”

Regarding Tang Cheng's proposal to repair the yard, Hou San and they had no objection, and they could live better, who would want to be in the pig's nest. This night is destined to be a night full of laughter for them in Tangcheng, and the way from Liuyang to Kunming can definitely be regarded as a camping out, although they have lived in this courtyard for several days, but it is the first time they are so happy as today, because they finally have enough supplies.
