I fought guerrilla warfare in the Yimeng Mountains during the Anti-Japanese War

The mutton soup came, the familiar milky white color, and the spicy and sour potato shreds and spicy fried mutton offal looked very refreshing.

Chen Feng habitually added chili oil and rice vinegar, and it tasted very good.

Xiao Hulu poured a tea bowl of wine for the captain. The aroma of the wine was everywhere and it smelled good.

"You two should drink a bowl too. Don't be too greedy. You still have to know how to drink."

The two of them drank it secretly, but they just tried it. Their family and Mayor Chen were very strict and never allowed children to drink, even if they were teenagers.

After a bowl of wine, Chen Feng let the two of them eat while he drank alone.

"Brother Guoqing told me that you two are involved in most of the affairs in Holy Spear City. Tell me what you think! Little Gourd goes first."

Knowing that the captain was testing him, Xiao Hulu's face turned red with excitement. The captain was asking about his opinion on the Holy Spear City, so he couldn't be too one-sided.

"Captain, I personally like Holy Lance City very much. My family members whom I know best are also full of love for Holy Lance City. I think most of the people in Holy Lance City have the same idea as my family. It not only gives us a rich life, but also gives ordinary people like us hope."

"My family's situation is rather special. We have received some care because of the team leader. It's not easy to use it as an example, but let's take Uncle Qin's family in the back row of my house as an example! A disabled soldier, the disability subsidy alone is enough for the family to live on. He works in the street, and his wife who has been bedridden for many years has received timely treatment. He can support himself and two children by growing some vegetables. The two children go to school while helping their mother with the busy farm work. I feel this is hope, the hope that their family sees."

Little Gourd's eyes turned a little red.

"Compared to my previous life, I am now like sitting on the throne, but I feel a little worried and I don’t know if it is appropriate to say it out loud."

"Speak up! I'm your eldest brother, there's nothing you can't say in front of me."

"Captain, I always feel uneasy. A happy life came too suddenly. I always have some inexplicable panic in my heart. It was not until I looked at the financial statements of Holy Spear City that I understood where the panic came from. We invested too much money in Holy Spear City, and the gap between input and output is too big. I know that the captain can make money, but if it goes on like this, I am worried that I will run out of money."

Chen Feng had to look at this kid with a higher opinion, as his question went straight to the heart of the matter.

"Xiaozhi, please tell me what you think!"

"Uncle Lengqiang, my opinion is basically the same as that of the Calabash Brothers. I had the same doubts at the beginning. Whether it was distributing dollars or new coins, I always felt that it would not always be like this. Until I had a superficial understanding of the research departments that Chief Engineer Liu and Chief Engineer Bai are in charge of, I think we will not lack profitable industries in the future. Business is only a small part. Arms, advanced research, and medicine are the violent industries."

Excellent! In comparison, Shen Zhong is a little better than Xiao Hulu, which is also the advantage of studying in advance. However, both children are very smart, and as time goes by, this gap will become smaller and smaller.

"Very good, both of you are very good. You have put in a lot of effort. It seems that Brother Guoqing is also focusing on training you. Study hard. Your current job is just training. You will all have a big stage in the future. You must learn foreign languages ​​well, be good at finding problems, raising questions and proposing suggestions for solving them. Age is not a stumbling block. Being young means more chances of failure. Be bolder."

The two children's eyes were filled with tears. Xiao Hulu had been feeling a little stressed. He was always afraid of being criticized by others thanks to Captain Lengqiang. The captain's affirmation made all his dirty thoughts disappear.

Shen Zhong was equally excited. He had a father who was on good terms with Captain Lengqiang. Everyone respected him very much. This was not what he wanted. He wanted to fly and participate in the construction of Holy Spear City with his own abilities. He didn't care even if he was just a carpenter and a cement worker. Now that he had received recognition from Uncle Lengqiang, he felt sweeter than eating honey.

Chen Feng finished the last half bowl of wine, then picked up the mutton soup in the small bowl and drank it all.

"Xiao Hulu's analysis is very good, and Xiaozhong's observation is also good. When this war is over, our future will focus on leading technological innovation. Whether it is military, medical or civilian technology, we must catch up with the first-class countries and surpass them. If you want to live a quiet and prosperous life, money alone is far from enough. You must have armed forces to deter those wolf-like and tiger-like countries. As long as you study hard, the future is yours. The most important thing is, no matter when, don't forget where our roots are. The international situation is changing day by day. Perhaps because of some problems, we will temporarily stand on the opposite side of the nation, but our hearts must be warm. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Understand, the better we are outside, the happier we will be at home."

"I also understand that no matter where I go, I will never forget the land where my roots took root."

"Okay, let's pay the bill! Go home and sleep."

The boss accepted Shen Zhong's money with trembling hands. When he saw the captain looking at him and nodding, tears welled up in his eyes. If it weren't for the captain, he would probably be begging on the street now, and even if he was barely alive, he would be living a life worse than pigs and dogs.

The boss shouted as he watched the captain leave.

"Have you finished your meal? If not, give your table another bowl of spicy fried mutton offal. It’s free."

"Fuck, Old Wu, you're such a stingy guy. Normally, he'd be so stingy even if I asked you to add some sheep's blood. What happened today? Whose widow's bed did you touch?"

We are all acquaintances, so there is no taboo in talking.

"You bastard Qian Fuqiang, what's wrong with me being happy? If you keep nagging me, you have no part in it."

"Brother Wu, I was wrong. If you have any good news, please share it with me."

"It is good news, but it is still in the top secret stage. You all know the rules, right? Just enjoy your meal. If you want to continue drinking, I will provide you with another bottle of wine, which is also free. But be careful with the amount! Don't drink too much if you can't finish it and take it home."

The atmosphere in the mutton soup restaurant was as warm as fire. Chen Feng returned home and sent Xiao Hulu and Xiao Zhi away into the yard. Li Yunyan and Song Zihan were chatting with their father, talking about Chen Feng's embarrassing stories.

"You're back. Have you had dinner?"

"Yunyan, sit down and have a rest! I went to drink mutton soup with Xiaohulu and Xiaozhong. It has the taste of Dan County and it is very delicious."

Chen Weiping looked at his son with a smile on his face.

"You must be tired! If you are tired, go to bed early."

"Not tired, Dad, tell me about the situation at home! How is the income?"

Li Yunyan and Song Zihan looked dumbfounded. Do I need to ask this? Is your family short of money or something?

"You have seen our house. In addition to the house, we were also allocated three acres of land. However, I gave back two acres. My health is getting worse and worse. It is a bit tiring to grow vegetables on one acre of land. It is also thanks to Caiyun's family and Heiwa's family for their help."

"Why grow so many vegetables? There should be enough food in the vegetable garden at home!"

"I'm just sitting there doing nothing, and vegetables are not cheap. Even though we only have one acre of land, we can plant from the beginning of the year to the end of the year and harvest several crops."
