Traveling through 1942 with space
Chapter 93: The Sound of Artillery Fire by the Yellow River
After Ling'er left, Hou Xiaoge walked into the room Ling'er had built.
When you walk into the room, the most intuitive thing is that this house is made entirely of mud.
There is not a single beam in the room, and the whole thing is like a cave dwelling, except that the top of a cave dwelling is oval, while this house is square.
There is no door in the house. There is a table and a bench on the right side of the door. Further in is the earthen kang, on which the bedding has been laid.
There was a horizontal cabinet next to the kang, and most of these things were collected by Hou Xiaoge from bandit dens at no cost.
Looking at the simple room, Hou Xiaoge seemed to have returned to his childhood.
In Hou Xiaoge’s previous life, his grandfather’s family had a cave house, the interior of which was very similar to this one, with a horizontal cabinet, table, and bench.
Hou Xiaoge, who was curious, took off his shoes and climbed onto the earthen kang. He didn't know what tricks Ling'er used, but the bedding that was originally hard became fluffy and soft, and it was very comfortable to lie on it.
Before he knew it, Hou Xiaoge fell asleep in the warm bed, and when he woke up again, he was woken up by Ling'er.
"Master, you have slept for three and a half hours, and it's almost quarter of an hour outside." Ling'er said with a smile, sitting on the cabinet at the head of the kang, shaking her legs.
When Hou Xiaoge heard Ling'er say that she had slept for three and a half hours, he quickly got out of bed.
"Oh!"
"I didn't expect that I could sleep for seven hours, but it was such a comfortable sleep!" Hou Xiaoge stretched lazily while sitting on the kang, and felt refreshed all over.
"Master, there is a roasted rabbit and millet porridge I made for you on the table. I have also washed your clothes and put them on the head of the kang for you." Ling'er playfully pointed to the food on the table at the door and the clothes on the head of the kang.
"Wow! Ling'er, you are so kind. It's a pity that you can't grow up, otherwise I would definitely marry you."
Hou Xiaoge felt very happy when he saw the clean clothes and delicious food. He touched Ling'er's little face with his finger and said happily.
"Hehe!" Ling'er's face turned red and she quickly left the room.
Putting on clothes full of patches, Hou Xiaoge began to happily eat the delicious food made by Ling'er.
A portion of spicy roasted rabbit weighing more than two kilograms, it was roasted with sizzling oil and looked delicious.
In addition to the roast rabbit, there was a bowl of golden millet porridge, two boiled eggs, a plate of cold cucumber salad, and two large slightly yellow steamed buns.
Except for the roasted rabbit, the rest of the food is exactly the same as Hou Xiaoge's own breakfast in his previous life.
Hou Xiaoge, who had been cleansed by the energy of space, had a good sleep and his stomach was already growling with hunger. Seeing so many delicious foods, he could no longer resist and started eating immediately.
He grabbed the fragrant spicy roasted rabbit, snapped off a hind thigh, and stuffed it directly into his mouth.
This is the little wild rabbit that Hou Xiaoge collected. It has grown to more than three kilograms now and is ready to be harvested.
Now that the breeding time has been accelerated twenty times, Hou Xiaoge will not be able to finish eating all the rabbits every day.
Just like that, Hou Xiaoge finished eating a spicy roasted rabbit weighing more than two kilograms in less than five minutes.
After eating the roasted rabbit, Hou Xiaoge was not afraid of being dirty. He wiped the grease off his hands with the steamed bun, then stuffed it directly into his mouth and ate it. Then he picked up the millet porridge and cucumber and started eating it.
"Comfortable and happy."
After sweeping away all the food on the table, Hou Xiaoge took a breath and then stopped.
After eating, he extended his mental power to check outside the space. Seeing that several cousins and brothers had gotten up, Hou Xiaoge did not dare to delay any longer. He quickly scooped up some water to wash his mouth. After washing, he took out a lot of mint leaves and started to rinse his mouth to remove the odor.
When the smell had almost dissipated, Hou Xiaoge put some spicy pork jerky he made himself into his pocket and then left the space.
After leaving the space, Hou Xiaoge saw through his mental power that the man in the suit had fallen asleep exhaustedly leaning on the chair.
Hou Xiaoge began to use his mental power to explore the items on the suit man's body. He wanted to see the suit man's identity.
After looking through it, Hou Xiaoge finally found a letter in the box containing the meteorite.
At this time, the meteorites and jade stones in the box had already been absorbed by the space and turned into waste stones, becoming very brittle. When the man in the suit takes them back, they will turn into a pile of rubble.
Hou Xiaoge used his mental power to look through the letter from the man in the suit. It turned out that the man in the suit was a stone and jade merchant from Longxi named Chen Baotang.
Chen Baotang came to Central Plains this time to buy a meteorite introduced by a friend. He spent 7,000 French francs to buy the goods.
The price of jade is not high these days, what matters is the craftsmanship.
Seeing that most of the passengers were sleeping and no one was paying attention, Hou Xiaoge used his mental power to put Chen Baotang's suitcase into the space.
Hou Xiaoge admits that he is not a gentleman, but he also has his own bottom line when dealing with ordinary people and will never take advantage of others.
After collecting the boxes, Hou Xiaoge took out a pen and paper from the space and wrote down that he had taken the things away, leaving 10,000 French francs for Chen Baotang.
In this way, taking into account the purchase price and the food, drink and defecation expenses along the way, Chen Baotang still had a profit of nearly two thousand French francs.
Today, seven thousand French francs are equivalent to more than two hundred and thirty dollars. The expenses for the journey are huge, and the cost of eight thousand French francs alone is not enough.
Eight thousand French francs was equivalent to more than two hundred and sixty oceans, which was not a small sum of money. If an ordinary small businessman lost so much money, he would probably go bankrupt.
So except for some non-human beasts, Hou Xiaoge treats ordinary people equally.
After all, it's not easy for ordinary people. Hou Xiaoge himself has good qualities, and he doesn't want to be a beast.
Therefore, Hou Xiaoge felt that giving Chen Baotang a portion of the extra profit was at least doing justice to his conscience.
After bundling the money and paper together and stuffing them into Chen Baotang's clothes, Hou Xiaoge felt relieved.
……
"Heiwa, why did it take you so long to go to the toilet? I thought you fell into the toilet and was about to rescue you." After returning to his seat, Erhuan saw Hou Xiaoge coming back and teased.
"No, I just met a passenger selling this, and it took some time to bargain with him." Hou Xiaoge said as he took out a piece of dried meat from his pocket and stuffed it into Erhuan's hand.
"meat!"
When Erhuan saw the dried meat, he quickly stuffed it into his mouth and started chewing it.
"Heiwa, this meat jerky is so spicy and delicious, much better than the tasteless meat jerky you gave me last time.
Do you have any more of this jerky? Give me another one." Er Huan said while licking his lips after eating the jerky.
"Go away, go away. The beggar asks for a bun and complains that it is too dark. The remaining dried meat needs to be shared with other people. Don't eat it." Hou Xiaoge rolled his eyes at his second cousin, then took out the dried meat in his hand and began to share it with his younger brothers.
"hey-hey!"
Erhuan was not annoyed when being criticized. He knew there wouldn't be a second piece of the jerky, so he had to give it to his other brothers and sisters.
The group of little guys who hadn't eaten meat for a long time looked like hungry wolves when they saw the dried meat. They took the dried meat and stuffed it into their mouths, then started chewing it vigorously.
After eating, the older ones took the younger ones to the toilet, and then everyone started to sleep all the way.
Next, the train stopped and started along the way, and by the time it arrived at Lingbao Railway Station, it was already past ten o'clock in the afternoon.
At this moment, the train suddenly stopped and the sound of artillery was heard outside, which made everyone in the carriage panic.
The conductor rushed out from the duty room and said, "Don't make any noise. The Nationalist Army is firing artillery at the Japanese. Let's wait until they finish firing before we go over."
