Roast Duck? Dong Qiangqiang thought he heard wrongly. Is Lao Lei right?
Seeing his confused look, Lei Lanting knew that he didn't understand. Taking advantage of the fact that there were no new packages on the slide, Lei Lanting shouted to him twice more. The last shout was louder, attracting the attention of the brown-haired man in the glass room. They all looked in their direction.
Taking advantage of his work break, Dong Qiangqiang pulled Lei Lanting to a corner of the rest area.
"You want to eat roast duck?" Dong Qiangqiang looked confused, "Can I just buy two for you? There must be some in Yipin Hibiscus. Others make it better than me."
"Buy two?" Lei Lanting rolled his eyes, "Then why do I need you? Can't I just go and eat it myself?"
"Yes, but I don't know how to do it." Dong Qiangqiang didn't know why Lei Lanting insisted on letting him do it.
"Can't we practice?" Lei Lanting patted him on the shoulder and continued to eat the supper brought by Dong Qiangqiang.
"Practice?" Dong Qiangqiang was puzzled, "Why practice it?"
"Art is not something you have to overwhelm. It's always good to have an extra skill. If you don't have enough, you'll need it one day."
"Well, then I don't have the tools. The hanging oven roasting duck is a big stove that burns wood. Even electric roasting requires an oven." Dong Qiangqiang argued.
"Don't worry, the villa has everything. The oven is very big. I guess it will be no problem to put you in. You can also use a stove, and the effect is similar. Hey, you didn't know, did you? Roast duck is said to be from Germany. It was invented.”
"Is it true?" Dong Qiangqiang heard this statement for the first time and felt very fresh. "I have only heard of Beijing roast duck and Sichuan roast duck. I have never heard of German roast duck. And in their own German cuisine There’s no such dish either.”
"Well, I also heard it from a German professor who likes food. It is said that the German devils brought it to Qingdao in the late Qing Dynasty. The German devils have always had the tradition of hunting wild ducks. When I arrived in Qingdao, I found that there were no wild ducks, so I had to make do with it. I shot a domestic duck. I didn’t know how to cook it after I shot it, so I just threw it on the barbecue grill and grilled it. By the way, it’s what they often call BABIQ.” Dong Qiangqiang was secretly amused when he saw Lei Lanting’s words.
"Come on, isn't it just roast duck? I'll bring two raw ducks over later." Dong Qiangqiang has never been afraid of trying new things. Since Lei Lanting is not afraid, he has nothing to be afraid of. "Then where will we be on Saturday? When will we meet? Do I need to bring cleaning tools?"
"No, everything is ready-made, you just need to bring the duck." Lei Lanting's expression suddenly became a little nervous, "But there is something I need to tell you."
"Um?"
"I," Lei Lanting paused, "want to bring one more person with me."
Hearing what he said, Wu Xiaoxi's figure immediately appeared in Dong Qiangqiang's mind, and he was slightly startled.
Seeing that Dong Qiangqiang didn't say anything, Lei Lanting thought he was counting money and said quickly: "Although there is one more person, your money is worth every penny."
Dong Qiangqiang knew that he was wrong, and quickly explained: "Every job you introduce is up to you. I just thought that three boys eating two ducks might not be enough."
Lei Lanting rubbed his hands together, his brows filled with excitement: "I, I want to bring a girl there."
Dong Qiangqiang's heart moved and he murmured: "Girl?"
"Well, it's a girl I've been chasing for a long time..." Lei Lanting suddenly became a little shy.
"When you meet a girl you like, chase her. Don't think too much, but..." He paused, "When people pick up girls, they usually invite girls to go to the park and watch movies. They don't ask girls to help clean up, right?"
"Hehe, then, that definitely can't be done." Lei Lanting suddenly became hesitant.
Looking at his expression, Dong Qiangqiang suddenly realized, and then he understood what Lei Lanting was thinking: he was the one who worked in the past, but Lei Lanting was the one who picked up girls.
But he was relieved as soon as he thought about it: he needed money, and Lei Lanting was willing to introduce the job to him and said he would not ask for commission, so he had nothing to complain about.
Thinking of this, he quickly changed his topic: "The time and place of meeting..."
"Meet you at the No. 3 stop in front of the train station at 12 noon on Saturday. Remember to dress warmly, we have to walk a mountainous road."
Dong Qiangqiang stood up and wanted to get another glass of water. Suddenly, a strange voice from an Eastern European man came from behind him: "Hey, you two."
Dong Qiangqiang and Lei Lanting looked over at the same time and saw an Eastern European man and Yu Jianghai standing behind them.
The Eastern European man sniffed, walked up to the two of them, and made a semicircle in the air with his right index finger: "I want to inform you that in the future, you will receive your wages from Mr. Yu, so don't come to me again." He used his finger to Pointing at Yu Jianghai, Yu Jianghai stood aside expressionlessly, without saying a word.
"Why?" Dong Qiangqiang asked uncontrollably.
"Because he will be responsible for managing you from now on," the Eastern European man waved his hand, turned and left, "You can communicate among yourself."
Before Lei Lanting could speak, Dong Qiangqiang turned to look at Yu Jianghai: "What's going on?"
Yu Jianghai glanced at Dong Qiangqiang: "He just said that I will be responsible for you two from now on."
"What does it mean to be responsible? What does it mean to manage?" Dong Qiangqiang asked, "Isn't Mr. Otto in charge here?"
Otto is the name of the brown-haired man.
Yu Jianghai made a contemptuous snort from his nostrils and said in a sarcastic tone: "Mr. Otto is only responsible for those who have work papers."
Dong Qiangqiang instantly understood Yu Jianghai's subtext. He immediately looked at the glass room, but there was no one inside.
Lei Lanting, who had been sitting silently for a long time, looked at the table and suddenly sneered: "Does this mean you are going to be a contractor? Tell me, what number?"
"20%." Yu Jianghai said with a gloomy face, holding out two fingers, "Starting from today. If you don't want to, you can leave immediately."
Just as Dong Qiangqiang was about to speak, Lei Lanting suddenly reached out and pulled him. Dong Qiangqiang looked at Lei Lanting suspiciously, wondering what he meant.
Lei Lanting fastened the lunch box and put it back into Dong Qiangqiang's bag. Without even looking at Yu Jianghai, he gently bumped Yu Jianghai's shoulder away and walked towards his workstation. Dong Qiangqiang glanced at Yu Jianghai again and quickly chased after him.
Looking at the backs of the two of them, a sinister smile appeared on Yu Jianghai's face.
Dong Qiangqiang caught up with Lei Lanting in a few steps: "Old Lei, what does he mean?"
Just as Dong Qiangqiang was speaking, a news break suddenly appeared on the TV on the wall. Amidst the billowing smoke, a female anchor with heavy makeup was reporting a sudden fire at the top of her lungs. Firefighters were busy coming in and out not far behind her, carrying out injured people from time to time.
Dong Qiangqiang's eyes were suddenly attracted by the fire. He glanced a few more times unconsciously, and suddenly felt that the building in the thick smoke looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
Just as he was trying to remember, a wooden board suddenly fell about one meter behind the female host. The female host was immediately frightened and collapsed to the ground. Her assistants and photographers swarmed up, and the scene immediately became chaotic.
In the shaky camera, the four gilded characters on the plaque suddenly appeared in Dong Qiangqiang's sight.
A first-grade hibiscus.
Dong Qiangqiang was stunned.
