Run a B&B and receive Wu Song at the beginning

Chapter 45 Gu Ying’s fiancé [asking for monthly votes]

"Ruotong, there is a man named Cai Qi who applied to join our archaeological team, saying he is your classmate..."

At the archaeological team station, Zhou Ruotong was considering whether to go to a B\u0026B for dinner. The archaeological team leader Pang Donghai suddenly walked over with a handwritten application form in his hand.

Normally, the archaeological team generally does not expand except for the core personnel. When large tombs require manpower, they can be recruited directly from major museums.

But this person's application was sincere, and he was Zhou Ruotong's classmate, so he came over to ask.

If you want to have a good relationship, then be accommodating, it's just a matter of words.

Zhou Ruotong frowned slightly:

"He is indeed my classmate, but I am not familiar with him. Uncle Pang, just handle it normally. You don't need to ask my opinion."

When Pang Donghai heard this, he immediately understood what to do:

"Okay, then I'll reject him. Although our archaeological team is a little busy now, it's not so busy that we need to increase our manpower... Come to my house for dinner tonight, your aunt plans to make madoufu at home."

Ma tofu is a traditional delicacy in Beijing. To put it simply, it is fried bean dregs with oil, preferably mutton oil. It tastes fragrant and moist, and is the favorite of many old Beijing people.

If he wanted to put things aside, Zhou Ruotong would agree without even thinking about it.

But today she hesitated for a moment and said to Pang Donghai apologetically:

"I have an appointment with my friends for dinner tonight. Let's go home to see my aunt tomorrow."

"Okay, then I'll tell Auntie that we'll eat tofu tomorrow night."

After Pang Donghai left, Zhou Ruotong picked up his phone and sent a message to Li Yu:

"The hot chestnut drink you made last time, can you make some more for dinner? The toys I bought for Brother Dao have arrived and will be delivered after get off work."

Li Yu replied quickly:

"Okay, no problem. I'll add some walnuts to it today. It should taste better."

Seeing this news, Miss Zhou slightly pursed her lips.

Zhou Ruotong, Zhou Ruotong, you actually started lying just to get a drink... She clicked on the Meituan APP, chose a popular pet store, and started choosing pet toys.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the archaeological team officially got off work.

Zhou Ruotong packed up his personal belongings, carried his bag to the gate, and received the pet toys from the errand boy in the guard room.

Put the toys in the guard's trunk, start the car, and go straight to Fengming Valley Scenic Area.

When we arrived at the gate of the B\u0026B, as soon as we parked the car, Brother Dao rushed over with his tail wagging, his eyes full of flattery.

"Ah, you are so enthusiastic today. Did you know that I bought you toys?"

Zhou Ruotong opened the trunk, took out the newly bought toys, and started playing with Brother Dao on the grass outside the door.

In the kitchen, Li Yu was peeling chestnuts.

On the stove next to it, the ribs were simmering, with beans and potatoes added to them. The more they simmered, the stronger the aroma became.

Later, add some vermicelli, stick a few corn tortillas, and a delicious Northeastern iron pot stew is ready.

Ever since he learned that Sun Facai had gone to the world of the Three Kingdoms, Li Yu felt relaxed for no reason.

Not only is the unresolved scenic spot about to get back on track, but the most important thing is that Fa Xiao has found his whereabouts and no longer has to worry about it every day.

"If Sun Facai and Lu Bu join forces, there will be more things that can be done."

Due to the constraints of the times, even if many things were shipped to the Three Kingdoms, Lu Bu and the others were helpless, such as large power generation equipment and agricultural production machinery.

With Sun Facai, these operations are no problem.

Some coal mines could even be mined to a limited extent, changing the main fuel of the Han Dynasty from charcoal to coal.

If coal can be promoted widely, it will not only save a lot of wood and effectively prevent soil erosion, but maybe Sun Facai can also tinker with a cement factory.

Think about it, Sun Facai's parents made their fortune in the cement factory. If he could do it in the Three Kingdoms, he would be regarded as inheriting his father's business.

Put the peeled chestnuts into a food processor, then add a handful of walnut kernels, pour in pure milk and white sugar, beat evenly and then filter, then heat it in a milk pan, and a cup of hot chestnut drink with full milky flavor is ready.

Coming out of the kitchen, I happened to meet Zhou Ruotong who had finished playing with Brother Dao.

"It's just in time, try it with walnuts."

"It smells great, thank you."

Zhou Ruotong was not polite, sat down, picked up the hot drink, and took a sip:

"It tastes good. It's a little more greasy than last time. It's really comfortable to drink it warm."

When she first came in, she saw the changes in the B\u0026B, and even predicted the investment intensity. She felt that all the money from selling the jade pendants was invested.

With this kind of investment method, it’s no wonder that millions of loans can be spent.

Li Yu went to the kitchen and put the vermicelli into the pot, then put the prepared cornmeal cake on the edge of the pot, checked the time, and continued to stew.

He returned to the restaurant and remembered that in addition to "Water Margin" and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the novels that Brother Dao threw on the ground last time were also a relatively unfamiliar "Xing Tang Biography".

These books were all packaged and bought from book websites without serious research at the time.

While Zhou Ruotong was here, Li Yu planned to ask about the relationship between "The Legend of the Rising Tang Dynasty" and the heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, so that if a character from the book came to the B\u0026B one day, he could entertain them in a targeted manner.

"Ruotong, are you familiar with the history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties?"

Zhou Ruotong was stunned by this question, and then said:

"It's quite familiar. My dad is an expert in the history of the Tang Dynasty. He now works in the History Department and History Museum of Peking University."

You asked the right person... Li Yu asked while the iron was hot:

"I read that there are several novels in the Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties series. What are the differences between them?"

If you ask about novels, why mention the history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties first... Zhou Ruotong almost choked, but still said:

"The series of novels of the Sui and Tang Dynasties is roughly divided into three categories: "The Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties", "The Complete Biography of the Tang Dynasty" and "The Biography of the Rising Tang Dynasty". The Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties is a historical type, which mainly uses the development context of the Sui and Tang Dynasties as the story structure. The latter two are heroes Similar novels, familiar scenes such as Qin Qiong selling horses and gathering in Wagang Village, etc., all come from the latter two books..."

She held the cup and took a sip of the hot drink, then said:

"There are a lot of magical plots in "Shuo Tang". Every hero has a previous life, and the force value is very exaggerated. Li Yuanba can even kill more than a million people in one night. Later, the writer felt that it was unrealistic, so he removed the plot of gods and demons. , changed the character settings, added some story characters from the same period, and reorganized it into "The Legend of Xing Tang"."

Speaking of this, Zhou Ruotong gave his own opinion:

"These books are very average in terms of literature and artistry. If you want to study the history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, you can buy some professional history books, such as "Sui Book", "Old Book of Tang", "New Book of Tang", and "Zizhi Tongjian" Books like this are much better than studying fictional novels.”

I understand the truth, but who asked Brother Dao to choose these novels... Li Yu sighed in his heart and planned to start reading "The Legend of Xing Tang" at night, and read it first to understand the plot.

In this way, you won’t be blinded when you meet the characters in the book.

Not long after, the food in the pot was completely stewed.

Li Yu first put the pancakes into a basket, then poured the vegetables from the pot into a basin, then two bowls of rice, and ate with Zhou Ruotong in the restaurant.

“The ribs are so well braised and delicious!”

Zhou Ruotong was chewing a piece of crispy ribs and felt that Li Yu was really good at cooking this kind of dish.

While she was eating, she sent the photo of the food she had just taken to Sister Fu Gu Ying:

"When you return to China, I will take you to this B\u0026B to try it out."

As soon as he sent it, Gu Ying replied with a picture, which turned out to be a selfie of him eating stew in an iron pot.

"Haha, you didn't expect that, did you? I was eating iron pot stew in a Northeastern restaurant in London. It feels so beautiful to eat Chinese food in a foreign country!"

Zhou Ruotong posted a question:

"Aren't you going to dive until the end of the month? Why did you go to London?"

"My family came here to receive a medal and participated in a series of royal banquets. The more I ate here, the more I missed Chinese food. I had no plans today, so I quickly found a Northeastern restaurant to satisfy my craving."

Gu Ying's fiancé is a mysterious man who stays in the West all year round. He has connections with churches, gangs, politicians, tycoons, etc. in Western countries. He often attends high-society gatherings and is very energetic.

Zhou Ruotong met Zhou Ruotong once when he traveled to Italy last year. At that time, he was having afternoon tea with a cardinal in the Vatican. Gu Ying felt bored and took Zhou Ruotong to visit Rome.

"Tongtong, I will return to China by the end of the month at the latest. Is there anything you need me to bring?"

Gu Ying recommended a series of new bags, clothes, watches and other luxury goods, and also listed his recent purchases.

Zhou Ruotong was not very interested in these, she thought for a while and replied:

"Bring me some toys or accessories suitable for dogs, and I will give them to Brother Dao."

"Brother Dao? It's the big golden retriever you showed me, right? That dog is really good. I was still talking about it a while ago, saying that I was waiting for a dog, but I didn't get it. Is that big golden retriever for sale?"

Sell?

Zhou Ruotong glanced at Brother Dao, who was lying on the side chewing a leg of lamb, and replied with a smile:

"It eats better than its owner, so don't even think about buying it. No one will sell it no matter how much you pay."

"In this case, I won't worry about it anymore so that I don't have to worry about it like I did when I bought a cat last time."

After finishing the chat, Zhou Ruotong hurriedly finished the meal in the bowl, played games with Brother Dao for a while, and then said goodbye before it was completely dark.

Soon, Friday came, Ge Huihui took the high-speed train and arrived in Yinzhou...
