He is two meters and five centimeters tall. Who made him a soldier?

Chapter 267 The Reason Why Xue Daochao Went Out
"Squad leader, if it's convenient, please give me the birth dates of the master's wife and the three children."

The next morning, before Xue Daochao and Ji Baichang went out, Xue Daochao found Chen Tingdao.

"Ok?"

Chen Ting was stunned for a moment, then he immediately reacted and nodded gratefully:

"Okay, I'll write to you."

After a while, Chen Ting handed a piece of paper to Xue Daochao. On the paper were the birth dates of his wife and three children.

"Okay, let's go out, squad leader."

Xue Daochao nodded, put away the paper, turned around and followed Ji Baichang towards the hotel entrance.

"That's great, Old Xue! I misjudged you!"

"At first I thought you were going out simply to have fun and get a foot massage or something! I didn't expect you to do this!"

Ji Baichang walked beside Xue Daochao, talking in a noisy manner.

His eyes kept looking at Xue Daochao, as if he was thinking of some bad ideas.

Xue Daochao beside him ignored Ji Baichang and said to himself:
"After all, the monitor has been with us for a whole year and has taught us a lot."

"My abilities are limited. Now that the squad leader is retiring, I can only call my cousin to help tell fortunes for the squad leader's wife and children. If there are any disasters in the future, I can also warn them."

"Although we can't make our squad leader rich and famous after he leaves, at least he can live a comfortable life."

"Sure, sure! You're so kind, Old Xue! I was also planning to give the squad leader something before he retires!"

"Compared to you, it seems like the gift I gave you is a little insignificant! No, I'll study it further!"

The two of them talked as they walked, and soon arrived at the entrance of the brigade. They handed the leave note to the duty room, tore off a corner of it, and then walked out of the brigade gate smoothly.

At the entrance of the Brigade, the driver whom Ji Baichang had called earlier was already waiting there for them.

The two got in the car, and as Xue Daochao said, they were going to go to the city to buy some things first, and then pick up his cousin for dinner.

On the way to the city, a row of flat-head diesel troop carriers drove past them one by one in the opposite direction, accompanied by bursts of happy laughter.

"Oh my! Looks like the main force is coming back!"

"Old Xue, do you think it's okay for me to give our squad leader some gold bars?"

"Anyway, gold is the most valuable thing. Isn't it because of the war between the big Mao and the second Mao and Israel in recent years?"

"Now the value of all the gold has gone up all of a sudden."

"I'll give our squad leader five kilograms of gold bars later. What do you think?"

As Ji Baichang spoke, he suddenly felt that his idea was very clever.

If Chen Ting encounters any difficulties in the future, maybe he can find a time when the price of gold is high and sell the gold bars he gave him, so that he can get some money back.

"It's up to you. You're a big dog owner anyway. You have a lot of money, so you can give me anything you want."

Hearing Ji Baichang's ostentatious words, Xue Daochao showed no emotion on his face, but instead frightened the driver.

Five kilograms of gold bars, how much money would that be worth?
Are all soldiers so rich now?

Soon, the driver drove Xue Daochao to a very strange grocery store. This store sold everything, including conventional electrical appliances and even hammers.

Xue Daochao got out of the car and bought some things that Ji Baichang couldn't understand, then got back into the car. Then they continued driving to the most luxurious hotel in the city.

"Is your cousin so rich? The lowest hotel he stayed in was over 5,000 per night?"

"Good fellow! Old Xue, I can't believe it. Do you fortune tellers make so much money? But why do you still seem so interested in money?"

Ji Baichang asked with some confusion.

"Not interested in money, mainly interested in your money."

"I just want to see what expression you'll have on your face when one day you have no money to spend and I take out the money I've taken from you over the years from my pocket and give it to you."

Xue Daochao spoke without any reservation.

Ji Bai was stunned for a moment, and immediately cursed:
"Damn it! How can you be like this? You just like to cheat me out of my money, don't you?"

"I thought so! This day will never happen!"

Ji Baichang was speaking angrily when Xue Daochao, who was sitting next to him, had already opened the car door and walked out.

Ji Baichang also got out of the car and walked behind him. Soon he saw a man wearing a Zhongshan suit, who looked to be about thirty years old.

The man looks very gentle, yes, this appearance means gentle in the literal sense.

He is the kind of person who, when you see him for the first time, you will think that he is a good person who is easy to get along with and has a good personality.

Xue Daochao walked up and greeted him, and they seemed to be chatting about something. Then Ji Baichang felt that both of their eyes were on him.

Then he walked up to Xue Daochao's cousin and said hello:
"Hello, I'm Ji Baichang, Xue Daochao's good friend."

"Hello, hello, you are a handsome young man. I heard about you in the morning. When I saw you today, I found that you are indeed handsome."

Hearing that he was being praised for being handsome, Ji Baichang felt a little embarrassed and quickly waved his hand to be polite.

Then he invited Xue Daochao's cousin to get in the car, and the three of them went to the hotel that had been booked in advance.

After arriving at the restaurant's private room, Ji Baichang directly asked the waiter to serve some of their signature dishes, which could be said to be a full plate.

On the other side, Xue Daochao took out the paper that Chen Ting wrote to him, spread it out on the table, and studied it with his cousin.

Both of them had frowns on their faces, and no other expressions could be seen on their faces, at least that was what Ji Baichang saw.

After a while, Xue Daochao's cousin spoke first:
"Daochao, do you have the birth date and horoscope of a squad leader like you?"

"Just looking at the birth dates of his relatives, it might not be enough."

"I've checked, the birth date is..."

Xue Daochao said this, and then the two began to discuss for a while.

Ji Baichang was eavesdropping nearby, but he found that he seemed unable to understand what they were saying, as if they were speaking in dialect.

After a while, Xue Daochao nodded to his cousin and said:
"That's all. Ask your monitor's three children to kowtow and pray in the direction of their hometown every year when they worship their ancestors. Burn more paper money, and there shouldn't be any major disasters."

"Yeah, that's how I calculated it, and the result is about the same."

"You two have figured it out, right? Then I'll start my game."

Ji Baichang happily called the waiter to start serving the dishes, and soon the entire table was filled with special dishes.

When the three of them had almost finished eating and Ji Baichang had paid the bill, he finally asked the question he wanted to ask. He rubbed his hands and asked Xue Daochao's cousin cheerfully:
"Um, Xue Daochao's cousin, can you tell my fortune for me if it's convenient for you?"

"I want to count my love."

Xue Daochao's cousin's expression froze, and he looked at him strangely and asked:
"You didn't tell his fortune? Why does he need an outsider like me to tell his fortune?"

"Forget it, he doesn't believe what I said."

Xue Daochao spread his hands and explained.

"It's strange. This is a bit too strange."

"Your name is Ji Baichang, right? Xue Daochao has told me about your situation. Although your love life has been a bit bumpy, it will be good in the end."

"The other person may have greater needs in that area, so you need to be more understanding and tolerant."

After hearing this explanation, Ji Baichang's expression was a little strange, and he quickly asked:

"Master, what aspect do you mean? I don't understand."

If it's what you want, then there's absolutely no problem!

My main feature is that I am young and there is no problem in being a groom every night!
Plus, I’m so young and full of energy, doesn’t that mean the other person’s major is perfectly matched to mine?
"I've said so much, you should understand."

"It means you need to spend more time with each other, give each other more affirmation and so on. In short, you need to spend time and love to accompany each other."

"Ah? That's what you mean."

Ji Baichang suddenly felt his head was dirty. It turned out that his thoughts were a little dirty and it was not what he thought at all.

"Okay cousin, do you have anything else to do this afternoon? We're going to go back to the army soon."

"Well, there is another boss who asked me to tell his fortune. You guys go first. He should send a special car to pick me up later."

"Okay, then if I have the chance next year, I will go back to the village for the New Year, and I will visit you then."

"Okay, you will develop well in the army."

Xue Daochao and Ji Baichang said goodbye to Xue Daochao's cousin and returned to the car.

Next, Ji Baichang planned to take his gifts and apologize to his female soldier girlfriend.

His current partner is undergoing training at a general hospital two hours’ drive away from them.

Most of the rest of their time would have to be spent in the car.

"Old Xue! What do you think of the fortune you and your cousin calculated for our squad leader today?"

"Would you mind telling me about it? I'm really curious!"

Ji Baichang leaned close to Xue Daochao and asked in a low voice.

"You can't just talk nonsense about other people's fortunes. You'd better think about what you're going to do if you can't find anyone at the hospital later."

"If I remember correctly, the last time you contacted your girlfriend was more than half a month ago. You have been out of touch for such a long time. Are you sure you can still find her?"

As soon as Xue Daochao mentioned Ji Baichang's female soldier girlfriend, Ji Baichang suddenly became depressed, and even his voice became much deeper:

"Ah~"

"Don't mention it. She won't contact me no matter what I say. She has a bad temper!"

"But, I learned from the female soldiers of her year that she is still there."

"As for whether we can meet, I have a way!"

Ji Baichang clenched his hands, and suddenly even his eyes became much firmer.

"Okay, then let's see what you do."

"I'll take a nap for a while. I don't think there will be anything for me to do next."

Xue Daochao took out his cell phone and wanted to send a message to Chen Ting, but when he thought about this matter, it would be better to talk to him in person, so he stopped what he was doing.

On the other hand, within the special operations brigade, the large force that went out for swimming training and the large force that went to South Africa for peacekeeping have all returned.

Next, they need to stay in the brigade to rest for ten days. During these ten days, they do not need to conduct any training. The main focus is to ensure the safety of veterans.

After the dischargers in September, they will have another training mission. It can be said that after seeing off the dischargers, every day of theirs will be very fulfilling.

As for now, they have completely relaxed and are planning to have a barbecue party in the evening to celebrate.

When I was in the army, the most common way to celebrate during holidays was to have a barbecue.

Even if it is a rainy day and you cannot have a barbecue party outdoors, you can still move everything indoors and have a barbecue party.

(Figure 1)

But as for grilling skills, it’s hard to predict. Some are grilled to just the right degree, while for others, it’s very normal for them to be half-cooked.

Anyway, they are just a bunch of young guys, they won’t get sick even if they eat dirty food.

Even if you have a stomach upset, it will just take a while to defecate and then you will be fine.

Young men of this age group are not afraid of getting a stomach upset at all.

The other platoons in Lu Qinglong's company had also returned and were preparing for a barbecue party in the evening.

"Squad leader, Ji Baichang just sent me a message, saying that he encountered something on the way and might be back later. He wanted to ask if you were the security guard and what would you do if you came back after 5:30?"

Lu Qinglong took his cell phone and asked Chen Ting with some confusion.

"Huh? Isn't it enough that they're out all day? They have to come back late at night?"

Chen Ting frowned slightly. He originally wanted to call Ji Baichang himself and ask him what exactly happened.

But thinking that Xue Daochao was with Ji Baichang, it meant that he might have really encountered something, so he immediately replied:
"Tell him that the latest time he can give is 6:30, which is before watching the news, and that he must be back at noon."

"I will be at the gate of Lvda University when the time comes and pick them up personally."

"Okay, squad leader, I'll reply to him then."

Lu Qinglong nodded, took his cell phone and walked out of the crowd of people stringing together skewers.

At this time, on the other side, Xue Daochao was holding Ji Baichang's mobile phone in his hand. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the message sent by Lu Qinglong.

"What a weird thing to do. Fortunately, it's fake, otherwise something really bad would happen."

"This Ji Baichang, could it be that he went to the hotel with his girlfriend? It's been so long, where is he?"
