My Abandoned Oil Town Became a New Frontline - Chapter 35

[Chapter 35 Digging a cellar to store fresh goods]

He stood there for a long time.

It was not until he confirmed again that the flat-roofed hut and the three colored steel houses were indeed the huts where Xu Xing lived that Liu Ming slowly came back to his senses.

In fact,

this time, I really can’t blame Liu Ming!

When he left yesterday, he knew very well what the surroundings of the hut looked like. However, after just one night, except for the colored steel house and the hut, the surroundings became extremely unfamiliar.

Not to mention that dozens of Sophora japonica trees suddenly appeared behind the Caigang house, and the open space surrounded by Sophora japonica was also covered with a thick layer of gravel.

The gravel was of different colors, including red, white, yellow, and purple. There are many kinds and they are very beautiful,

and there is also a mobile toilet that matches the color of these gravels very well in the northwest corner of the open space.

At first glance, if it weren’t for the slightly old colored steel houses and huts that lowered the grade, this open space would not be low-end even in the most prosperous sea market.

If it is paired with a few triangular tents, who dares to say that this is not a camping ground?

And it’s not just any ordinary campsite.

How could he be calm

like this ?

“Boss, are you unloading your goods here?”

In a blink of an eye,

several small trucks from behind also arrived in front of the cabin one after another.

“Well! You guys unload your things into the open space here first! I’ll go find someone.”

When asked,

Liu Ming finally came back to his senses.

Shocked, unloading was the most important thing, and Xu Xing didn’t seem to be in the cabin yet. He had to find Xu Xing first to get the key.

“Okay!”

Several truck drivers glanced at the open space in the distance, with deep surprise in their eyes, as if they were saying, “Is there such a place in this ruins?”

But in the end they didn’t say anything more and opened the carriage doors one after another.

After unloading the goods, they had to rush back overnight!

No more time to waste.

“Xiao Xu. Xiao Xu”

Liu Minggang shouted a few words as he walked around the colored steel house. Just when he was about to shout a third time, he suddenly noticed something and walked quickly to the back of the open space hut.

I saw that the original ruins here had been cleared away, and there was also a lot of fresh soil.

At this moment,

you can still see mud rising from the back of the hut from time to time, obviously someone is digging a hole.

When I walked in, I saw that

it was indeed true. Xu Xingzheng was working shirtless under a pit that was about one square meter and two meters deep. There was also a hole dug into the pit that a person could get in while bending down.

“Xiao Xu!”

“Huh? Uncle Liu? Are you back?”

Looking up and seeing Liu Ming, Xu Xing immediately threw away the shovel and climbed up by stepping on the grooves that had been prepared on the edge of the pit.

“Xiao Xu, what is this?”

Liu Ming patted the dirt on Xu Xing’s body before asking curiously.

“After finishing the clearing in the afternoon, I had nothing to do so I thought about finding a place to store the fresh meat and vegetables.”

Xu Xing subconsciously glanced at the deep pit behind him.

In fact, he had already planned to dig a pit. If he wanted to store fresh food for a long time without a refrigerator, there was only one way, and that was a deep cellar.

Some people have once questioned that it is a false proposition to store fresh goods in deep cellars, as many things cannot be stored at all.

But he knew very well that

if fresh meat spoiled in the cellar, it must be because the cellar was not deep enough. Ordinary fresh meat could be wrapped in plastic wrap and stored in a deep cellar for more than ten or twenty days without any problems.

Not to mention those fresh fruits, they will be fine for several months.

“So you’re digging a cellar? You’ve had a really hard day today!”

Upon hearing this,

Liu Ming suddenly understood.

He knew how to store fresh produce in the cellar, but this was the first time he saw it.

“It’s okay, he’s almost healed! By the way, Uncle Liu, where are the supplies we bought now? Have you got that sign back as well?”

Xu Xing waved his hand.

He was not idle at all this afternoon.

When I was installing the mobile toilet, I hit it off with the semi-trailers who delivered the goods, and finally reached an agreement at a price of 3,200.

The other party pulled the Gobi gravel over as quickly as possible and helped lay it out.

Originally,

Xu Xing thought it would be late at night to finish the work, but the speed of the other party exceeded his imagination.

It felt like they were a construction team that had been working together for a long time.

Four hours later, all the gravel was ready.

Not to mention, before leaving, they also used an excavator to help him dig a few pits, otherwise the soil would be The progress of the pit is not that fast at all.

“We’re unloading the car right now! We’ve basically got everything we need to do! And there’s a solar light in the sign, so it doesn’t require a dedicated power supply.

There’s just something wrong with the menu!

The prices are too high, and they’re all based on five-star standards. Compiled by the standards of a first-class hotel.”

Mentioning supplies and today’s itinerary, Liu Ming turned around and pointed to the side of the colored steel room.

“Okay, let’s go over and have a look! We’ll put up the lamps later and light them up to try out the effect, so that the camping spot will be a little more interesting. As for the menu?

That’s not a big problem.

Anyway, it’s just a matter of coping. Wang Long’s father-in-law is definitely not Ordinary people usually bring their own supplies with them, so they probably won’t actually order food.”

Xu Xing nodded,

then turned and walked towards the color steel room.

“That’s fine, there’s nothing we can do about the menu, we can only make do with it! By the way, Xiao Xu, what’s going on in this open space? Compared with before, the changes are so great, I really can’t believe my eyes.”

Perhaps because he couldn’t hold it in for a long time,

while chasing after him, Liu Ming finally couldn’t hold it back and asked.

“Uncle Liu, it’s like this.”

Xu Xing then briefly explained the situation in the open space. The trees and paving stones were all integrated together, which was perfect.

“That’s it! If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t believe it. It took more than a day to make it. It’s amazing!”

After hearing the explanation,

Liu Ming accepted the fact but still shook his head with emotion and gave Xu Xing a thumbs up. .

The country of Xia is vast, and

the sun is still hanging in the west of Binghu Village at around seven o’clock in the evening, but the sea market in the east is already flashing with neon lights, and it has officially passed from day to night.

In a river view office building, Wang Long was answering the call with his mobile phone,

“Yueyue, don’t worry! It will be fine.” He

gritted his teeth and

said.

“Is it really okay? I checked the weather forecast. There is widespread rainfall in the northwest. When I called my dad today, he said that if the road conditions are not good, he plans to stay at the campsite you recommended for two more days.

You know!

My dad is very respectable, and the people traveling with him this time are all old buddies, just in case the camping spot you recommended doesn’t work.”

The next moment,

a very sweet voice came from the phone. A worried voice.

“Ah? How many more days do you want to stay? Didn’t you agree that you would only stay for one night?”

It was okay if he didn’t listen.

When he heard it,

Wang Long was stunned and his expression suddenly became unnatural.

“Isn’t it going to rain and worry about bad road conditions? When my dad called me just now, he said that their convoy has entered Suqing Province.

If nothing unexpected happens, it will arrive at the place you recommended around eight o’clock tomorrow morning. Campsite.”

The sweet voice came again.

ps: Brothers, the third update will start tomorrow. I hope you will support me in my pursuit of reading.
