On Sunday, Gao Jie was about to go to a small shop to buy chicken legs and come back to share them with Li Xiang and Li Erniu. Suddenly he found that there was beer for sale in the small shop, so he couldn't help but ask the shop owner: "Boss, what's wrong with your beer?" Sell it?"
The shop owner looked at Gao Jie.
"Little comrade, I think you are relatively new to the army. You should be a new recruit."
"What's wrong with the new recruits? Can't new recruits buy beer?" Gao Jie said unconvinced.
The shop owner smiled.
"Don't you know? Your company has a rule that soldiers are not allowed to drink alcohol."
"Since the army has regulations that soldiers cannot drink alcohol, why can you sell alcohol here?"
Gao Jie immediately refuted the shop owner.
"you……."
The shop owner was speechless when Gao Jie retorted.
"I drink this wine myself, why not sell it?" The shop owner made a random excuse.
"Well, boss, how about you sell me the wine and I won't tell you that I bought the wine from you?"
Gao Jie knew very well that the shop owner had said so much because he was afraid that the army leaders would come to trouble him.
The shop owner thought for a while, and since the recruit in front of him knew how to be sensible and would not sell himself out, and he also had a business, he would not do it in vain. Even if you don't sell it yourself, there are several other small shops in the camp that sell alcohol.
"Okay, how many bottles do you want to buy?"
"Bring me four cans."
Gao Jie felt that drinking alone was too boring. Drinking together was the most interesting thing, so he took four cans of beer in one go.
On the way back, Gao Jie didn't dare to take the beer he bought directly back to the dormitory, so he waited halfway to see if any comrades from his class would come over. He happened to spot Li Erniu halfway, and secretly called Li Erniu to him.
"Li Erniu, look what good things I bought."
Li Erniu put his head into the black handbag in Gao Jie's hand.
"Yeah! I've been wanting to drink beer for a long time. Where did you get it, Gao Jie?"
Gao Jie quickly covered Li Erniu's mouth.
"Li Erniu, please keep your voice down, don't let others hear you."
Only then did Li Erniu realize that the company commander had said before that drinking was not allowed in the troops.
"Gao Jie, you know the company doesn't allow drinking, so why did you buy alcohol?" Li Erniu asked in a silly voice.
"Li Erniu, you are just a pig head. The rules are dead and people are alive. Just don't let the company commander know about your drinking."
When encountering such a pig teammate, Gao Jie's head was on fire.
"oh."
Li Erniu touched his head and turned around after a long time.
"Li Erniu, go and call Li Xiang and Liu Gang over. Let's find a place to have a drink together." Gao Jie directed Li Erniu.
When Li Erniu immediately turned around and prepared to go back to the dormitory, Gao Jie suddenly felt that something was wrong and needed to warn Li Erniu. So, he quickly grabbed Li Erniu's arm and said, "Remember, don't let anyone else know about this."
Li Erniu nodded repeatedly and returned to the dormitory.
"Li Xiang, Liu Gang, you two come here." Li Erniu stood at the door of the dormitory and quietly waved to Li Xiang and Liu Gang.
Hearing Li Erniu's whisper, Li Xiang and Liu Gang looked at Li Erniu inexplicably.
"What happened? Is it so mysterious?" Li Xiang came to Li Erniu and asked in a low voice.
"Follow me first, you two will know in a minute."
Li Erniu took the two of them to a small forest and found Gao Jie. They saw Gao Jie squatting on the ground holding a black handbag.
"Gao Jie, didn't you say you were going to buy chicken legs? What are you doing here?"
Li Xiang remembered that Gao Jie said he was being treated to chicken legs, but there was no need to hide in the woods to eat chicken legs.
"Li Xiang, look, I bought you something good."
Gao Jie exposed a crack in his handbag and showed Li Xiang the beer he bought.
"beer?"
Li Xiang thought he had seen it wrong and looked at Gao Jie doubtfully. When Gao Jie nodded to him, he realized that the handbag was really beer.
"Gao Jie, where did you buy this beer?"
Li Xiang asked puzzledly, because he didn't see any shop selling beer in the military camp.
"I bought it from a small store." Gao Jie responded.
"What? Can you still buy beer in the shop?" Li Xiang's eyes widened.
"Hey! Are there any policies or countermeasures? Come on, let's go have a drink." Gao Jie teased Li Xiang with his eyes.
"No, the company has regulations and soldiers are not allowed to drink. What if the company commander catches me?"
Although drinking is not a big deal, if the company commander finds out, it will leave a bad impression.
"Hey! Li Xiang, what are you afraid of? There are only four of us here. If you don't tell me and I don't tell you, how will the company commander know that we are drinking."
Gao Jie encouraged Li Xiang.
"Forget it, you three go and drink, I won't go." Li Xiang hesitated for a moment, but still didn't dare to go drinking with Gao Jie and the others.
"Okay, Li Xiang, forget it if you really don't want to drink. The three of us will drink, but you won't get the chicken legs."
Gao Jie used chicken legs to seduce Li Xiang to see if Li Xiang could bear the temptation. Just as Gao Jie and the other three were preparing to leave, Li Xiang's stomach suddenly growled in protest, and his mouth began to drool.
"Wait, I'll go with you."
In the end, Li Xiang couldn't stand Gao Jie's temptation and decided to drink with them in order to eat chicken legs. However, to be cautious, Li Xiang had to make some preparations.
"You guys wait for me here, I'll prepare something."
Li Xiang quickly came to the cafeteria and took the initiative to get close to the veterans of the cooking class.
"Squad leader, I'm busy."
The veteran of the cooking class didn't even look at Li Xiang and continued busy with his work.
Seeing that the veteran didn't reply, Li Xiang continued to ask: "Squad leader, can you give me a few garlic?"
The veteran in the cooking class looked up and saw that it was a new recruit, and he didn't want to pay attention to him anymore. Although garlic was not a valuable item, the veteran in the cooking class did not agree, and Li Xiang did not dare to get it himself, so he stood aside not knowing what to do.
At this time, another veteran from the cooking class came over. Seeing Li Xiang standing here, he asked, "Are you the Li Xiang from class one?"
Li Xiang looked at the veteran in front of him and didn't recognize him. How could he know his name?
"Well, yes, I am Li Xiang."
"I just said yes, hahaha..." the veteran said with a smile: "You know? Your squad leader has a good relationship with me. He often mentions you to me, so I know about you."
Li Xiang, who was a little confused, came to his senses and thought it was because of his reputation.
"Li Xiang, you have a day off today. Why don't you go play? What are you doing in the cooking class?" The veteran asked Li Xiang when he saw that Li Xiang had been standing there for a long time.
"Oh, monitor, can you give me some garlic?"
"What do you want garlic for?"
Li Xiang had an idea. Since the veteran said he had a good relationship with his squad leader, if he used the squad leader as an excuse, the veteran from the cooking squad would not refuse.
"My squad leader asked me to come and get it. I don't know what he wants to do."
When the veteran in the cooking class heard that it was the squad leader who asked for garlic, he didn't think much and took a large handful of garlic and handed it to Li Xiang.
"Here, it turns out it's the garlic your squad leader asked for. He often comes to my place to get garlic." After the veteran handed the garlic to Li Xiang, he continued: "They northerners just like to eat raw garlic. It is said that it can prevent colds. Anyway, I I just can’t get used to it.”
Li Xiang took the garlic excitedly. Unexpectedly, with just such a casual comment, I actually learned a secret about my squad leader, his preference for eating raw garlic.
