The Prosperous Years of Siheyuan

Chapter 185 Improving Lives
The accommodation at the outpost is good.

The bungalows built on the slopes still retain the smell and warmth of the sun.

Chen Jisheng was assigned a single room.

It's said to be a single room, but the conditions are the same as a dormitory.

It's just that Chen Jisheng lived alone in a four-person room.

I don’t know what this four-person room is used for. It’s neither an officer’s dormitory nor a soldier’s dormitory.

Maybe it's an outpost, used as a base to entertain people.

Nowadays, not many people pay attention to accommodation conditions. As long as it can meet the requirements of living, it is very good. The same is true for Chen Jisheng, there are not too many requirements.

It's September in the Northeast and it's already very cold at night.

The soldiers on the sentry tower couldn't stand guard at all if they didn't wear military coats in the middle of the night.

The temperature on the riverside is close to sub-zero, so wearing single clothes, not many people can survive such a cool night in single clothes.

Chen Jisheng enjoyed it very much. After more than two months of summer, it was refreshing and comfortable.

Play a little bit and let yourself sleep, and all living conditions are ignored.

I woke up at 05:30 in the morning to the bugle and felt very comfortable.

Not long after the wake-up call, the assembly call rang. It was time for morning exercises.

Morning exercises, more than half of the military camps were morning jogs, and I followed the soldiers and ran several laps around the outpost.

After sweating all over, I felt very comfortable after simply washing myself.

A simple life in a simple environment will be out of reach for many people in the future.

After we chatted for a while, it was time for breakfast.

The meal is as light as yesterday, which is great for breakfast.

But as three meals a day, it seems very bland.

Although the food in the military camp is mediocre, there is one good thing about it: it is enough.

After breakfast, Gu Lei began to arrange tasks, and Chen Jisheng and his eldest sister were assigned to the first class.

The company headquarters issued an order. Squad Leader Wang of the first class must completely obey Chen Jisheng's orders. This is an order from both the company headquarters and the regiment headquarters.

Gu Lei was helpless when arranging for the eldest sister to join him, and Chen Jisheng was the same. When bringing a woman to make trouble, the place must be divided.

But the eldest sister insisted that she would go by herself if she was not allowed to go. Rather than doing this, it would be better to let her follow.

After assigning tasks and authorities, you need to receive equipment.

Each person has a five-six and a half, a grenade bag with four grenades, and the squad leader is also equipped with a five-four.

Then there are the scattered equipment such as satchels and ammunition belts, and finally put on leggings and armed belts, and you can go out.

Leggings, except for mountain patrols, are rarely worn by troops.

As soon as he put on the leggings, Chen Jisheng felt that his whole body became much more agile.

Seeing that the soldiers were in good spirits, Chen Jisheng gave an order and fourteen of them rushed to the shore.

There is no dock on the riverside, just a few wooden wedges smashed to tie up a few small wooden boats.

A squad of soldiers used three small wooden boats to cross the narrow river here.

Seeing that there were nets on every boat, Chen Jisheng said something, and the third mate's nets were also taken off the boat by the soldiers.

"Platoon officer, what are you going to do next?"

Although Squad Leader Wang had been given instructions by Gu Lei for a long time when he came, he was still a little uneasy when he went to the sandbank.

"Not in a hurry.

Let's go to the end of the sandbank to see the fish first. Isn't there a grenade?

Go fish fry!
Being close to mountains and rivers, your food is so fucked.

Don’t they all say that you beat a roe deer with a stick and scoop up fish with a gourd?

We'll get some big ones later, and we'll go back and fight the tooth festival.

After eating these few meals here, I feel like I am in a labor camp. "

The food at the outpost was too poor, and Chen Jisheng was unforgiving.

Although it is a mountain, it is not suitable for hunting, and the risk of hunting in the mountains is very high.

Most of the surrounding areas are deep mountains and old forests. For those who are not familiar with mountains and forests, let alone hunting, whether they can get in or come out is a problem.

But frying fish is much easier. Just throw the grenade into the water and wait to pick up the fish.

If one fails, throw in a few more. With such a wide river surface, you won’t have to worry about not being able to fry fish.

When handing out grenades, Chen Jisheng thought of frying fish.

Now that he has the final say, he will naturally not miss the opportunity to improve his life.

"Platoon officer, this is not okay.

The company headquarters has an order prohibiting fish fry! "

When Chen Jisheng mentioned fried fish, Squad Leader Wang almost jumped up like a cat that had stepped on its tail.

This is the rule of the outpost, and those who violate it will be punished.

The platoon deputy on the opposite side is no bigger than the station commander, so he will join in the fun.

It's not easy to be a soldier. Returning home with a punishment on your back will not only affect your job after you change jobs, but also your work will be affected.

It’s hard for people living far away from home to raise their heads and be a good person. I’m afraid finding a wife is even a big problem.

"Did you forget your platoon leader's order?
Listen to me here and watch the fish..."

The orders on the front line should be higher than the regulations of the company headquarters, under Chen Jisheng's scolding.

Gu Lei's men squatted on the side of the sandbank facing away from the water.

At the head of the sandbar facing the water, the current is turbulent, and even if there are fish, there are not too many.

The end of the sandbar is the best fish nest. Although the water is a little turbid, there are definitely big fish below.

Just looking at the traces of big fish in the river with your eyes is somewhat unreliable.

The faces of the guys who were about to violate company headquarters regulations were not depressed, but rather a little bit happy.

Looking at Squad Leader Wang who kept pointing fingers, Chen Jisheng also believed him.

What about the righteous words just said?

What about the lawsuit just now?
He gave Lao Wang a roll of his eyes and looked down upon him.

Chen Jisheng also joined the fish watching team.

Although looking at the fish is not very reliable, it is very reliable when the fish shows up on its own.

After a while, a fin sliced ​​through the water. It looked like it was quite big.

Chen Jisheng did not hesitate and pulled out all four grenades.

Unscrew the back cover and pull off the leads one by one.Each grenade was spaced about 20 meters apart and was thrown out around the fins.

The grenade thrown by Chen Jisheng was a signal. Before the grenade landed on the river, a group of people became nervous.

“Take off your clothes and get ready to get in the water.

Don’t be naked..."

Seeing the grenade enter the water, Lao Wang reacted very quickly. He ordered two soldiers and prepared to go into the water to catch fish.

Others don't know that Lao Wang, who is Gu Lei's confidant, knows the identity of the eldest sister Gu Yizhou.

If he was naked in front of Gu Lei's eldest sister, then after he went back, his little Zao would be indispensable.

Four muffled sounds sounded almost at the same time. Lao Wang glanced at Chen Jisheng in surprise. He was really a master.

Looking at the water column of more than ten meters rising into the sky, Lao Wang first suppressed the two people who were about to enter the water.

There are not many soldiers who work by the river who are not familiar with the nature of water.

In summer, the river here acts as a natural swimming pool.

As the squad leader, Lao Wang has very good water skills and is familiar with Dajiang's temperament.

There must be turbulent currents at the bottom of the river now. Only when the fish float up can we go into the water.

If you go into the water now, you might be sucked into the river bed by the turbulent current.

When a person is sucked to the river bed, even the gods cannot save him unless he floats up.

"Oh...he's not small yet.

Lao Wang, collect grenades, we will blow them up later..."

Seeing the fish floating on the water, Chen Jisheng praised the largest one.

At least one meter long, the river fish here are not bad.

We will fry it later, firstly because all the fish under the water, except those that floated up, have probably escaped.

Another reason was that he heard the sound of a motor.

Although the underwater grenade has a dull sound, it is no problem to travel a mile or two.

The water column soaring into the sky fell, making a sound louder than a grenade, and Gu Lei's side was also alarmed.

Gu Lei, who staggered over with a stick, glanced at the situation on the sandbank and said a few words to the people behind him.

Several photographers with cameras hanging on their chests soon appeared on the shore and began to take photos of the fishermen in the river.

"Hurry up and gather the fish on the water, there will be no time in a while."

Chen Jisheng also gave an order to Lao Wang. The two men who had previously taken off their clothes went into the water with a fishing net.

In a short time, more than twenty large fish of [-] to [-] centimeters in length were thrown to the shore.

Chen Jisheng didn't know many people, but he still knew pike, and most of them were pike.

There are at least hundreds of fish on the river. Except for dozens of big fish, most of the rest are small fish as big as a palm.

Beating a roe deer with a stick and scooping out fish with a gourd is really not nonsense.

Later generations may not be able to get so many big fish if they go fishing along the river.

"Okay, stop looking at Jing'er and clean up the place quickly."

If the outpost does not engage in breeding, there is no use in putting fish into the water.

Chen Jisheng said hello, and everyone began to collect the fish on the shore.

Many people are not very good at butchering chickens and fish, let alone being skilled at it.

A chicken or a fish can be used to make New Year dishes.

Looking at the fish in front of him, the guy was in a good mood.

Once you get it, you won’t be allowed to eat it, right?
“Put away the fish offal and fish blood, and throw away the inedible fish gills and gall.

The fish blood will be useful later, and the fish offal can be stir-fried later.

Don’t throw everything away, the spicy fried fish offal is a good dish to go with wine. "

Seeing someone taking out fish offal and throwing it into the river, Chen Jisheng spoke up.

A lot of dried chili peppers were dried in the courtyard of the outpost, as well as dozens of large fish and twenty or thirty kilograms of fish offal.

Whether it's spicy stir-fry or dry stir-fry, isn't it better than pickles?
A spicy fish offal, paired with a grilled knife that adds fuel to the fire, wouldn't it be a fairy-like enjoyment on the river bank in late autumn?
"The platoon mate is right. There are sacks on the boat. When loading the fish, bring them and pack the fish offal as well.

The fish is too bloody. Can I eat it? "

Seeing that the fish floating on the river were still young enough to enter the water, Lao Wang also spoke.

It is not easy to cook meat, let alone fish offal, even the oil on the fish soup cannot be wasted.

Thinking about the spicy fried fish offal that Chen Jisheng said, Lao Wang swallowed a big mouthful of saliva before suppressing his selfish thoughts of fishing for fish offal from the river.

Pig blood, sheep blood, even chicken blood, duck blood can be used to make blood tofu, but it is said that fish blood is too fishy to be eaten.

Chen Jisheng left fish blood, which made Lao Wang somewhat puzzled. What would he do with something that was inedible?

"It's just for pretending to be dead. Let someone clear out a few water bottles, collect the fish blood, and don't rub it on your body. Maybe it can be of some use."

Lao Wang asked, but Chen Jisheng didn't explain its function in detail.

Seeing Chen Jisheng's careful words, Lao Wang was also overly thoughtful.

I just have to do some laundry when I go back, so why not get some first, in case it helps?
When Chen Jisheng led everyone to collect the fish.

The one-eyed man-bear appeared in front of him.

The one-eyed man-bear was followed by a military dog, a German blackback.

Blackback is a large and fierce dog, and its combat effectiveness is also among the top ten.

If a few people go up, they may be chased by dogs and run around in the next second.

You are not as flexible as it, and the clothes you wear in September are not very thick.

After one bite, it is also a foreseeable result that the skin will be ripped apart.

The one-eyed man-bear was a bit careless, and it was disgusting to bring a dog out, so Chen Jisheng's face became a little gloomy.

One-on-one, he had never faced off against a dog before, and the outcome was somewhat unknown.

"Old Wang, take someone to get the fish on the boat. Let's go back tonight to improve our lives."

Ignoring Renxiong, Chen Jisheng directed Lao Wang and the others to get the fish they just caught onto the boat.

Needless to say, the harvest was really quite big. After loading all the fish, the boat was almost full.

This boatload of fish is enough to go back and improve your life.

Chen Jisheng felt that the outpost could eat three meals of these fish.

Let Gu Lei look for connections and see if he can get some scrapped grenades to use to fry fish, saving manpower and scrapping them.

In this way, Lao Wang and the others will have a good meal. The fish in the river are quite big, but they are afraid that they will get tired of them after eating for a long time.
