My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 650

After the snowstorm in Sydney, the whole city was almost paralyzed. The first task before everyone was to clear the snow on the road in time.

Otherwise, the residents would not even be able to go out, let alone work and live.

In addition, Sydney's industrial areas also suffered heavy losses, and many factories and construction sites were destroyed.

Fortunately, Sydney's local industry is not well developed.

However, some industrial and mining enterprises related to the national economy and people's livelihood, such as key industries such as coal mines, power plants, seawater desalination plants, and plant factories, finally survived under the full escort of relevant departments.

The overall loss is still manageable.

October 10th is the National Day of Daxia.

On this special day, Sydney officially released the general mobilization, recruited more than 500,000 volunteers in a short period of time, and launched a vigorous "snow removal" campaign.

Naturally, no one from the old Xu family signed up, but Xu Dong teamed up with the Sydney Bakery and jointly donated [-] million to this action. Among all the donations, it is currently ranked first.

Two days later, the domestic snow basically stopped.

Xu Dong immediately made two phone calls to the capital, one to Yu Maolin. The overall loss of the bakery was not big, and there was nothing to worry about right now.

Another call was to Ye Hui.

Xinke Seaweed was not so lucky. Although Xu Dong supported a large number of canned food, manpower sometimes failed to overcome the sky. The entire cultivation base still lost about one-tenth of the factory buildings.

The number is almost more than 50 seats.

"Xu Dong, I'm sorry."

Ye Hui blamed herself very much.

"Forget it, I can't blame you for this. Compared with other companies, you have done a pretty good job. I am very satisfied."

Xu Dong quickly comforted him.

What he said was not polite. It was also reported in the news just now. Take the plant factories in the capital area as an example. In this snowstorm, about one-third of the factories were not spared, and the proportion was much larger than that of our own company.

"We could have done better."

Ye Hui was full of annoyance.

As the saying goes, under heavy rewards, there must be brave men.

Relying on the 2000 tons of canned food and high wages, Shinco Seaweed hired an additional [-] temporary workers. Now it seems that it is too conservative, and it should add another [-] people.

After all, there are more than 50 factories, and the maintenance cost alone will cost hundreds of millions of yuan, which is far from comparable to that salary.

"There are no casualties. It is already a blessing in misfortune. Some things cannot be forced."

Ye Hui felt better: "Xu Dong, what should we do next? Does the collapsed factory need to be repaired immediately? Or wait until later?"

"What do you think?"

"I suggest you wait a little longer. Winter is coming soon. I don't know if there will be any snowstorm in the future? Let's be careful."

Ye Hui looked cautious.

"Wait? Isn't the production capacity affected?"

Xu Dong couldn't help but frowned.

"There is no way to do this. If there is another snow disaster, the loss will be even greater."

"Can't it be changed to a sloped roof?"

Xu Dong said his plan.

"It's okay, but the cost will increase a lot. Maybe it won't take two years for the volcanic ash to dissipate by itself. The reconstruction is not worth the candle."

Ye Hui explained.

Compared with the huge reconstruction cost, the labor cost is cheaper, and she would rather hire more temporary workers.

"Okay, just do as you say."

Xu Dong thought about it, and finally agreed with the other party's plan.

Since the beginning of this year, Xinke Seaweed has spent too much money, and it really needs to take a break.

As soon as he hung up the phone, the little tiger ran over staggeringly, and he hurried forward to hug the little guy.

"Second grandpa, I want to eat barbecue."

Little Huzi looked at the second grandfather eagerly.

Xu Dong pinched the little guy's face: "Who taught you to come here?"

"It's the eldest uncle. The eldest uncle said that the second grandpa promised me that he would cook barbecue for me."

Xu Dong patted his head. In the air-raid shelter before, he seemed to have promised to make the little guy happy, but he forgot about it later.

"Okay, Second Grandpa will make barbecue for you at noon, okay?"

"Okay, I want to eat roast lamb."

Little Huzi clapped his little hands and shouted.

Xu Dong shook his head: "The mutton at home is finished, can Second Grandpa cook you a roasted rabbit?"

"Roast rabbit? Is the roast rabbit delicious?"

The little tiger swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Of course it's delicious, don't reject the delicious ones."

"Wow, I want to eat baked rabbit."

Xu Dong put down the little tiger, and suddenly yelled out the door: "Dabao, come in for me."

"Dad, what do you want from me?"

Dabao felt embarrassed about being caught.

"Let's make roasted rabbits for lunch. Your uncle can skin the rabbits. Call him over quickly."

"Okay, I'm going now."

Dabao said excitedly.

……

An hour later, Xu Bin came to the greenhouse with the peeled rabbits. This time, he slaughtered two male rabbits, which weighed about five or six catties.

"Third, the rabbit is peeled."

Xu Dong quickly put down the work in hand, stepped forward to take the rabbit, there are more than ten members of his family, two rabbits must not be enough to eat.

He was still preparing other ingredients just now.

The children were not idle, and they were helping out, especially Lele, who learned from his own chef for several months, and his cooking skills became more and more exquisite.

Xu Bin couldn't help but suggested, "Third brother, can we just roast one rabbit?"

"Do you have an idea?"

"Uh, roasting a rabbit is too wasteful, it's too dry, why don't you save one for hot pot at night?"

Xu Dong shook his head: "Where is one serving enough? It's not enough to fit your teeth. If you want to eat rabbit meat hot pot, let's make it later."

Rabbits grow fast and reproduce quickly.

In just a few months, when the mother rabbit has given birth to her cubs, their family will have enough rabbits to eat.

"Grandpa, the roasted rabbit is delicious."

The little tiger ran over to protect his grandfather's thigh.

"Okay, okay, let's eat roasted rabbits."

Xu Bin immediately put the rabbit meat hot pot out of his mind.

Near noon, the barbecue officially started.

Since his own chef hasn't come to work yet, Xu Dong can only go to battle in person, and Lele is his deputy. Both of them are experienced veterans, so there is no need to worry about overturning.

After a while, the smell of meat overflowed in the greenhouse.

First of all, there are dozens of skewers of beef roasted in a row. The most important thing in their family is beef. Who makes the beautiful country rich in beef!

For wealthy people in the beautiful country, beef is their daily staple food.

Regrettably, with the eruption of the Sulfur Rock Volcano, this good time has come to an end. Coupled with the turmoil in the Europa region, it may not be easy to eat meat again.

I can't find a place to buy it if I have money.

Fortunately, their family has four beef cattle, which is barely enough to eat, but they can no longer spend as much as they used to.

Lele brought the first plate of grilled beef skewers to Pan's mother. This is the way of hospitality. After all, the person in front of him is the only guest in their family.

"Auntie, quickly try my handicraft."

"How dare you do that? Let your grandma..."

Madam Xu quickly waved her hand: "We're all a family, so you're welcome."

Pan's mother smiled, and then distributed the beef skewers on the plate to several juniors one by one.

"Thank you auntie."

Dabao and others shouted one after another.

Little Huzi echoed, "Thank you, Auntie."

After all, the little guy is only two or three years old, and he usually likes to imitate the words of adults, and he can understand even a slip of the tongue.

"Hahaha……"

Everyone was laughing up and down.

Xu Jingyi quickly corrected her and said, "Little Huzi, this is grandma, don't you recognize her?"

"Grandma? I want grandma."

Little Huzi stretched out his hands towards grandma.

Mother Pan quickly hugged the little guy on her lap.

After a brief episode, the barbecue continued.

Next, Xu Dong grilled more than a dozen sea fish, and sent them to Captain Zhou and the others directly after they were grilled. Although we couldn't have lunch together, at least we let everyone have a taste.

The security team members were naturally flattered.

An hour later, Xu Dong tried the rabbit meat and finally confirmed that the rabbit was roasted.

"Okay, it's time to eat!"

Seeing this scene, the little tiger immediately slipped off his grandma's lap, ran to the second grandpa on his short legs, and stared at the roasted rabbit, drooling.

"Second grandpa, I want to eat roasted rabbit."

"Don't come over, be careful it's hot."

Xu Dong cut off a rabbit leg, and then handed the plate containing the rabbit leg to Pan's mother.

"Come back soon, grandma will feed you rabbit meat."

Mother Pan waved to Little Huzi.

"Grandma, here I come."

Little Huzi ran to grandma impatiently.

Xu Dong cut the remaining rabbit meat into more than a dozen pieces, and then served it with vegetable salad and prepared sauce. Each of them shared a portion. The taste was not to mention very fragrant.

Everyone ate heartily.

"Mom, is the rabbit meat okay?"

Mama Xu couldn't help nodding: "It's quite fragrant, it's charred on the outside and tender on the inside, not bad."

"Third brother, you have nothing to say about your skills."

Xu Bin took a mouthful of rabbit meat and a mouthful of white wine, he was as happy as a god, and he still knows how to live at home!

"It's just that the portion is too small."

Dabao said with a look of pity.

Madam Xu looked at the half piece of rabbit meat in her hand, and wanted to give it to her eldest grandson, but she was afraid that the other party would dislike it. After all, Dabao is no longer a child, and he knows how to keep clean.

Lele handed over her portion of uncooked rabbit meat directly. What she enjoys more is the cooking process, and she is still on a diet, so it doesn't matter if she doesn't eat it.

"I'll give you my share!"

"Really? Thank you, Second Sister."

Dabao hastily took it.

Yang Lina immediately frowned and said, "Eat less, you ate so much just now, don't overeat."

"Mom, I can eat it."

Dabao patted his belly proudly.

Since the eruption of the Sulfur Rock Volcano, the "Yuan World" has been completely disconnected from the Internet, and the family is very boring. As a result, he only has one hobby now, and that is food.

"Do you still want to lose weight?"

Yang Lina said unhappily.

Mama Xu interjected: "Rabbit meat doesn't have much fat, so you can let him eat it! Besides, he will be in the third year of junior high school soon, and the learning tasks are heavy, so it doesn't matter if he eats fatter."

"Yes, Nana, Dabao doesn't count as fat."

Mother Pan helped to persuade.

"I'm 1.5 meters tall and weigh almost 130 catties. Isn't that fat?"

Yang Lina sighed helplessly.

Dabao immediately argued: "Mom, I am now 1.5 meters five, not 1.5 meters."
