Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 136
The next day, as soon as a ray of light came out from the sky, the pastoral settlements that had been silent for a while began to become lively again.

As for the wolf attack last night, after three or four hours of sleep, everyone has long lost the excitement of last night.

When they met, they had some fun, and after boasting a few words about their bravery, they started to busy themselves with the tasks in their hands. Those who should make milk tea should make milk tea, and those who should clean up cow dung should also clean up cow dung. If you kill a wolf, it will affect your normal life.

The world is big and there is nothing as big as filling one's stomach.

The herdsmen were busy with their stomachs, and He Yuanchao and the others were not idle either. They were boiling water to wash themselves and helping the drivers and masters warm their cars.

There was nothing else, except that it made Li Jiefang depressed when he was lighting the fire. "Section Chief, this is too smelly."

While throwing the cow dung in his hand into the fire, Li Jiefang wrinkled his nose and complained to He Yuanchao who was adding water to the pot.

"Okay, you are satisfied. This is a gift from Jiri Gala. Where else can you buy it in winter?"

"No, otherwise we would have to eat cold, hard steamed buns early in the morning."

He Yuanchao just said something about Li Jiefang cheerfully, and a security guard who was holding a bucket and waiting for boiling water saw Li Jiefang's sad face and said something happily.

Li Jiefang didn't say anything after listening to the words of the section chief and his colleagues. After giving a sideways glance at the colleague carrying the bucket, he pinched his nose and started throwing cow dung into the fire.

At 08:30 in the morning, the rolling mill convoy was finally ready to set off.

"If Mr. He drinks this bowl of wine, the Immortal God will definitely bless you for a safe journey. Next time you come to Hongfeng, you must remember to come to our place to see us."

Looking at He Yuanchao who was about to get in the car and leave, Jirigala handed He Yuanchao a bowl of wine and blessed him cheerfully.

Feeling the enthusiastic gazes of everyone on the grassland, He Yuanchao didn't have any ink marks. He took the wine bowl and drank it clean before smiling and saying to Jirigala and the people behind him: "Don't worry, I won't forget to talk to you." They belong to my brothers who fought against wolves on the grassland together."

After saying that, he returned the bowl to Jirigala and got on the truck that had been ready to go amidst the cheers of everyone in the grassland.

As soon as He Yuanchao got on the bus, Master Liu honked the car horn for a long time, and the motorcade drove out of the pastoral settlement in one file.

"Chief He, look."

Not long after leaving the pastoral settlement, Master Liu pouted at the rearview mirror of the car and said to He Yuan.

After listening to Master Liu's words, He Yuanchao was not the only one who was curious. Even Director Zhang, who was napping in the car, couldn't help but open his eyes, stretched his neck and looked behind the car.

As soon as He Yuanchao turned his eyes to the rearview mirror of the car, he saw more than [-] prairie men on horseback catching up behind four trucks.

While galloping on their horses, they sang farewell songs in Mongolian. Although He Yuanchao couldn't understand what they were singing, he could feel the sincere friendship contained in it.

Seeing this, He Yuanchao was also very moved. He quickly rolled down the window and stuck his head out of the car. While waving his hands to the prairie men on horseback, he shouted loudly to them to go back quickly.

After seeing He Yuanchao, these prairie men became even more excited. Not only did they have no intention of going back, but they waved their riding whips more frequently.

"Go back, go back quickly."

Looking at these prairie men who were wrapped up tightly but still blushing from the cold, He Yuanchao shouted again with his eyes a little red.

The prairie man who had already rushed to the car didn't say anything when he heard He Yuanchao's greeting. He just grinned and showed his big white teeth to him.The prairie men followed the car for as little as twenty miles before slowly slowing down their horses and stopped following the car and continued running forward.

A man from the prairie shouted, "Brother He, we'll wait for you to come drink again in the prairie." Then he reined in his horse and led the crowd back.

When the prairie man on horseback could no longer be seen, He Yuanchao withdrew his head with his face and eyes red.

"Chief He, I really envy you. I gave them so many things, but I didn't get their friendship.

I didn’t expect that they would take you so far on horseback just after you came here, which shows that they recognize you very much. "

As soon as He Yuanchao retracted his head, Director Zhang, who was sitting between the two people, clicked his tongue in disgust.

"If you risk your life to protect them, they will still recognize you."

After listening to Director Zhang's words and seeing that He Yuanchao remained silent, Master Liu, who was driving, made a joke.

There is no reporting relationship, and Master Liu doesn't care whether Director Zhang is a cadre or not.

Besides, he had personally experienced the scene last night. Facing so many wolves, He Yuanchao was able to stand up and block them without hesitation. Not to mention the prairie man, even he was very grateful to He Yuanchao in his heart.

Master Liu has already thought about it. When he goes back this time, he will have a good drink with He Yuanchao if he can find the time. As for the words of thanks, he will not say anything, and we will see each other in the future.

"Master Liu, don't get me wrong. I didn't mean that. I just envy Section Chief He for their friendship. You don't know if I had this friendship, my work here would be much easier."

Knowing that his tone had caused misunderstanding, Director Zhang quickly opened his mouth and explained sheepishly.

After Master Liu heard this, he saw He Yuanchao looking out the window and saying nothing, so he said nothing else. After saying "hmm" in his mouth, he focused on looking ahead and started driving his car.

Director Zhang didn't say anything when he saw this. He also explained what he needed to explain. As for what He Yuanchao and the two thought, to be honest, he really didn't care much.

The three of them were each thinking about their own thoughts, and no one spoke anymore. For a while, there was no other sound in the cab except the whistling of the wind.

It took nearly two hours to get the empty car back. On the way back, the car was loaded with thousands of kilograms of meat. The road surface was much slipperier than when we arrived, so the drivers were even more afraid to drive faster.

After running on the bumpy road for nearly three hours, the four vehicles from the Hongxing Steel Rolling Plant safely drove into the urban area of ​​Hongfeng City.

"Master Liu, do you think we should stay here for one night before leaving, or should we leave early tomorrow morning?"

After unloading five thousand kilograms of meat at the storage station, He Yuanchao, who was arranged by Director Zhang to eat in the canteen of the storage station, asked Master Liu who was eating steamed buns next to him.

"If we leave now, we will definitely have to spend the night in the wild tonight."

After swallowing the steamed bun in his mouth, Master Liu didn't say whether to leave or not, but directly told the result.

After listening to Master Liu's words, He Yuanchao drank the last sip of soup in the bowl, glanced at the people sitting around the table eating, and then said with a smile: "Hurry up and pack the supplies."

At this point, He Yuanchao didn't say any more. He took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it. After taking a puff, he saw that everyone was looking at him a little nervously, and then he continued cheerfully: "Leave tomorrow morning."

After hearing He Yuanchao's last words, both the driver and the security personnel breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. No one wants to spend the night in the wild in the cold weather, not to mention encountering wolves or something, it's minus [-] or [-] degrees Celsius. The temperature is enough for everyone to drink a pot.
