Chapter 226 Chicken Farm Friendship

"Bang~bang bang!"

"Pull~Pull again!"

"Hey~ Okay! Tie it tight!"

Mentougou, chicken farm!

The chicken coops and other facilities in the chicken farm are being constructed intensively, and the fence is being pulled up around the chicken farm.

Although there is actually a mountain behind the chicken farm, it still needs to be surrounded.

It's not that the chickens are afraid of getting out, but that people are afraid of getting in.

Even twenty years later, theft was an extremely common thing, let alone the late 1990s.

If Wang Jianjun and his wife were to pull the fence, they would be very busy.

After all, it's still sixty acres of land, about the same size as the Erlong Grain Station.

But today Chen Li brought in nine strong laborers and seven and a half laborers at once, so the matter became easier.

And what Chen Li paid was just a lunch!

Although it is known as a barbecue feast, the price is actually relatively cheap these days.

"Woof~ woof woof!"

Chen Li was frying chicken wings and French fries, and at his feet squatted a half-sized German Shepherd.

This kind of guy, known as a wolfdog in Erlong Town, is best suited to look after homes and homes.

The little German shepherd shuttled back and forth between Chen Li's legs, trying his best to please Chen Li.

There is no way~ Chen Li's role at the moment is the chef, so the little German shepherd naturally wants to please him.

Chen Li was a little annoyed by the little German shepherd, so he took a small piece of beef from the shelf next to him and fed it to the little German shepherd.

Nowadays, the price of beef is much more expensive than that of pork, but the unit price does not exceed double digits.

This is definitely a bargain price for Chen Li, so he bought a lot of beef today.

Part of the beef will be used for barbecue, and the other part of the beef brisket will be used to stew potatoes.

After eating, the little German shepherd stopped harassing Chen Li for a moment, but before taking two bites of a small piece of beef, the little German shepherd started wandering around Chen Li's feet again.

"Hannah~!"

"Come here and take this little guy away, she's disturbing my cooking."

Today, those who came with Chen Li were not only Dormitory 402 and Liu Qingqing Dormitory.

And Hannah and Vivian!

These two girls called Dormitory 402 because there was no one in the German corner in the cafeteria yesterday.

As a result, Luo Ming directly revealed today's plan to the other party, so these two people also followed him today.

No clue~ Luo Ming wants to pursue Hannah, so he’s a bit licky!

Later, this guy coquettishly scrawled in front of Chen Li for a long time, and even asked to help Chen Li wash his clothes and socks for a week, and Chen Li agreed to this request.

Hmm~ In fact, Chen Li didn’t intend to refuse at first! After all, he and Hannah could be considered friends, and he was the one who led the way in the German corner!

But Chen Li had no reason to refuse Luo Ming's request!

Although Chen Li's clothes are basically washed in the rental house, things like socks are usually washed in the dormitory.

Therefore, Chen Li readily agreed!

The reason why Hannah was asked to take the dog away was because the girl was not afraid of dogs.

Other girls are somewhat afraid of breeds like German Shepherd Dogs.

However, as a German, Hannah is very familiar with the German Shepherd dog breed.

It is said that Hannah's grandfather had two German shepherds at home, so as soon as Hannah came here today, she made friends with the German shepherd named Xiaohei.

"Oh~ here it comes!"

"Bella~come here!"

In Wang Jianjun’s mouth, the little German shepherd’s name was Xiao Hei, but in Hannah’s mouth, it was Bella!

Okay~ Actually Chen Li also thinks Bella sounds much better than Xiao Hei.

But what’s more embarrassing is that Hannah’s call didn’t get a response at all.

The little German shepherd was still wandering around Chen Li's feet, and finally just squatted down at Chen Li's feet.

Hannah ran over like a gust of wind and picked up the little German Shepherd without saying a word.

"Bella~ I'm calling you! Why don't you answer me?"

Chen Li rolled his eyes, sighed helplessly and looked at Hannah.

"Although this is a German Shepherd, she really doesn't understand German!"

"Uh~! Okay!"

Hannah shrugged, then looked at the shelf next to Chen Li.

There were freshly fried chicken wings, chicken legs and French fries. This girl was probably hungry, or maybe she was tired from helping dig holes, so she looked at the golden food with bright eyes.

Chen Li was speechless~ He took a ceramic tray and picked a pile of chicken wings, chicken legs and French fries from the basket on the shelf.

"Here, let's have something to eat to fill our bellies. There's still a little while for lunch!"

"Hmm~!"

Hannah nodded quickly, then took the tray and hugged little Bella and walked towards the fence.

Poor little Bella was trapped under Hannah's arm, and her calves were fluttering hard, but she couldn't break free at all.

The little German shepherd was taken away, and Chen Li speeded up making lunch.

Chicken wings, chicken legs, French fries, chicken steaks, and Sichuan-style fried crispy pork were all cooked by him quickly.

During this period, Chen Li looked at the beef brisket that was almost stewed, added the potatoes, and started grilling the skewers.

There are a lot of people eating chicken legs at lunch!

Just brought by Chen Li, apart from him and Liu Qingqing, there were nine people in dormitory 402, five people in Liu Qingqing's dormitory, and Hannah and Vivian.

That's eighteen people, plus Wang Jianjun and his wife, there are twenty people.

In addition, there is Gu Chengpeng's engineering team, with a total of eight people, so there are a total of twenty-eight people in this meal.

If you just want to eat something casually, it is quite simple. If you want to save trouble, Chen Li even only needs to make a beef brisket stewed with potatoes.

As long as the food is plentiful and the food is plentiful, both the workers in the engineering team and these college students will actually have a good meal.

After all, people rarely eat beef. Although it is available in the school cafeteria, the beef stew with potatoes in the cafeteria should not be called this name. It should be called potatoes stewed with potatoes or potatoes stewed with potatoes.

Beef~ In this dish in the cafeteria, it is just a condiment!

As for the beef and potato stew made by Chen Li, potatoes are the condiment!

In this case, the potatoes inside will definitely be eaten first.

But this beef and potato stew is just one dish. Today’s real dish is the barbecue dinner.

Different from the dishes that Chen Li cooked every time in his hometown of Erlong Town, such as grilled pork belly and bone meat, the barbecue feast Chen Li cooked today was almost at the level of a normal barbecue restaurant.

Not to mention anything else, there are several sheep kidneys alone, which are prepared for Comrade Wang Xiaobao.

"Oh my God~ Let's start the barbecue! I'm going to help over there!"

As soon as Chen Li's barbecue started, Li Jun, who was helping to make the fence there, smelled the smell.

As a Northeastern person, the skill of barbecue is almost engraved in my bones.

Li Jun has been making barbecue since he was a child. Regardless of whether it tastes good or not, he can definitely cook it anyway, and it's not too unpalatable.

So when he saw that barbecue was starting over there, Li Jun hurriedly greeted Zhang Bei and walked towards the barbecue stove.

As soon as they arrived, the two of them were stunned.

Chen Li, who was in front of them at the moment, was holding a large iron skewer in one hand and waving seasonings in the other hand. His hands were flying up and down, and he looked like he was a veteran in barbecue!

"Oh~oh~oh~oh!"

"Brother Li, you are such a good guy. Is there anything you don't know how to do?"

"How come you are so good at cooking barbecue?"

"I feel like you are worse than my second uncle!"

Li Jun's second uncle's family owns a skewers shop.

Of course, his words were somewhat meant to compliment Chen Li.

Although Chen Li is quite familiar with skewers, it would be absolute nonsense to say that he is more familiar with it than other people opening a shop.

But this thing is impressive.

If Li Jun's second uncle was skillfully making kebabs here, then Li Jun would not be surprised.

But when this person was replaced by Chen Li, Li Jun would naturally feel strange, even surprised!

"You two are here just in time. It's popular to eat skewers over there, so you just happened to help me try these mutton skewers."

This is Chen Lisheng’s first time making kebabs because Erlong Town doesn’t have the habit of eating mutton.

Except for a very few families in Erlong Town, no sheep are raised at all, and no one eats sheep.

There is a mutton restaurant in Huilong County, but it is not grilled, but used to steam rice and make mutton soup.

Both of these methods remove the fishy smell of mutton to the greatest extent.

But barbecue is different. Although barbecue will also remove the fishy smell of mutton, if you grill it too hard, the mutton will not have that smell.

"I have to try this. Oh my god~ I haven't had these charcoal-grilled meat skewers in a long time."

Zhang Bei took the large mutton skewers handed over by Chen Li, separated them from Li Jun, opened his mouth and bit into them.

"Uh~uh~ tender, refreshing, and even juicy!"

"Fuck~Brother Li~your skills are ruined!"

After Zhang Bei took his first bite of mutton, his expression was really rich and even exaggerated. This guy even used the Yanjing dialect he learned from Luo Ming.

But Chen Li rolled his eyes, this guy was too much of a performer.

Chen Li's craftsmanship is good, but it is only at the level of an ordinary small shop, and the mutton is not good. It is impossible for him to find good mutton in a short time.

That is to say, the condiments he prepared based on the formula obtained from the system are more fragrant, but they are definitely not as good as the batch Zhang Bei showed at the moment!

Li Jun next to him seemed relatively normal, nodding and praising after taking a bite of mutton.

"It's really delicious. It's even better than what my second uncle bakes."

“It’s very tender and tastes good, just a little spicy, but it tastes great.”

Neither of them are gourmets, and they lack the vocabulary to evaluate food.

But overall, the evaluations given by the two people were positive, which satisfied Chen Li's "vanity".

Chen Li in his previous life loved to cook, otherwise he would not have such good cooking skills as a non-chef.

For people who like to cook, the biggest "vanity" is to be recognized by diners.

"That's alright~ Let's get ready for dinner!"

"Auntie~ Is the rice ready?"

Chen Li first looked at the beef brisket stewed with potatoes. After finding that the potatoes had been stewed until soft, he shouted towards the kitchen.

"Okay~! Braised pork ribs with green beans is ready too!"

There were a lot of people today and a lot of food was needed, so Chen Li and his aunt started working together.

"Okay~ You two, go and call people for dinner."

"Boss Gu, come over for dinner!"

Chen Li stopped Li Jun and Zhang Bei from eating, and then shouted towards the chicken coop.

"Oh~ I've asked about the scent a long time ago. This guy. I almost lost my energy to work just now. This smell is so fragrant!"

"I didn't expect you, Boss Chen, to have such skills!"

Gu Chengpeng walked over here wearing a safety helmet and rubbing his hands.

What he said was not false. Chen Li cooked many of the dishes in the yard today, and the aroma wafted everywhere.

As for people who work on construction sites, they do heavy work and get hungry quickly. How can they withstand the temptation of this fragrance?

"Haha~ Just eat more in a while, it's enough!"

Chen Li prepared a lot of food today, and it must be enough to eat.

"Hehe~ Then I have to thank Boss Chen!"

"Oh~ Boss Chen, you are so interesting. I have to worry about whether I should reimburse you for food every day."

Gu Chengpeng washed his hands, stood next to Chen Li and handed him a cigarette. Chen Li was grilling skewers and waved his hand to refuse.

"Hey~ Why should I pay for the food?"

"As long as you do my job well, I'll be very grateful. After all, it won't be long before Yanjing gets cold."

"Don't worry~Boss Chen!"

"As far as your job is concerned, if anything goes wrong, I will refund you the full amount directly."

"You don't treat us as outsiders, and we won't fool you!"

During this time, Chen Li's brother-in-law and aunt were in charge of the engineering team's meals.

Although the taste can only be considered average, there is absolutely no fuss over the ingredients.

This is already very satisfying for the people in the engineering team.

"That's fine, let your people come and eat quickly!"

Chen Li nodded, but the movements of his hands did not stop!

"Okay~!"

Just when Gu Chengpeng turned around and was about to call his workers over for dinner, he suddenly heard a sudden noise coming from the side of the fence not far away.

"Pig ~ wild boar!"

"Is this a wild boar?"

"It seems to be coming towards us!"

"Run~!"

"Woof woof~!"

The noise of a group of college students was mixed with the barking of little Bella.

When Chen Li heard about the wild boar, he didn't care about the mutton skewers in his hand. He picked up the tongs holding charcoal from the side and rushed over there.

This wild boar is quite aggressive, and Liu Qingqing is still over there!
