Crossing the Western Tianshan Mountains

Chapter 26 Eating Meat and Drinking Wine

Ling Fengxi finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally, it's about to begin."

Wu Yongjie said, "But digging the hole is also the most difficult part, and the location needs to be re-determined. Li Jianguo's survey equipment is still on the way. We originally had the blueprints, and according to the original location, we didn't need to mobilize the relevant equipment. But now we have to make a new choice, which means we need to re-survey. Li Jianguo has a heavy task."

Ling Fengxi only asked, "How long will it take to confirm?"

"Li Jianguo's leg hasn't healed yet. A broken bone takes a hundred days to heal, and he's only had a few days' rest. At the very least, he needs another ten days, right?"

"Ten days is too long. We need to start construction within a week."

Wu Yongjie thought about arguing with Ling Fengxi for a moment, but then realized a week was probably enough. It was just that the survey team and technicians led by Li Jianguo would have to work harder.

Today was a good day, and he had no intention of arguing with Ling Fengxi.

At noon, Ling Fengxi invited Lu Haoyang and Wu Yongjie to eat meat because Lu Haoyang helped a lot by transporting some difficult-to-transport machinery to the platform when the road was blocked.

But when Lu Haoyang arrived, he found only a large plate of minced lamb fried with chili peppers, a plate of tofu and a pot of lamb bones without meat.

Lu Haoyang said with a half-smile, "Leader, your food is too simple. I have made such a great contribution, I thought you would reward me with a sheep."

Ling Fengxi said with a wry smile, "Why don't you cut off my face and cook it for you?"

Lu Haoyang was suddenly frightened. "I dare not, I dare not. The leader is serious. I was just joking. You are Secretary Ling. Who would not give you face?"

Wu Yongjie had disliked Lu Haoyang since the first day he arrived at Xitian Mountain. He couldn't help but sneer, "If you can't afford to offend me, don't provoke me. You look so ugly like this."

Lu Haoyang's face suddenly darkened, "Wu Yongjie, how can you talk like that?!"

Wu Yongjie's neck stiffened. "Did I say something wrong? Look at me, I never mess with Ling Fengxi. I can't afford to mess with him! I admit I can't afford to mess with him. What about you?"

Lu Haoyang was also an extraordinary person. He smiled and pointed at Wu Yongjie and said, "You flatterer, I can't flatter you, okay?"

The three of them finally sat down in peace, but Ling Fengxi didn't dare to admit what Wu Yongjie said. In Xitian Mountain, Ling Fengxi believed that no one dared to offend him. If Wu Yongjie didn't dare, then it would be flattery.

But this flattery is quite useful, so just accept it.

Wu Yongjie pulled out a bottle of white wine like a magic trick, "What time is it?"

Ling Fengxi said with a straight face, "Drinking during working hours is against the rules."

Wu Yongjie rolled his eyes at him and said, "Lu Haoyang, what time should we set up?"

Lu Haoyang glanced at Ling Fengxi's face, and found that he was staring at the wine glass in Wu Yongjie's hand with a bit of greed. At this point, Lu Haoyang had to admit that Wu Yongjie's flattery skills were indeed better than his. Without saying much, he held out the glass, and after Wu Yongjie filled it with wine, he held it to Ling Fengxi with both hands.

"Leader, a general is not bound by military orders when he is away from home. You can't be too rigid. Besides, our Xitian Mountain is not like other places. It's too cold without some wine."

Wu Yongjie didn't say anything this time, giving Lu Haoyang a chance to perform.

Ling Fengxi did not refuse and took it. He was afraid that if he refused again, he would not be able to enjoy the food and wine today, and Wu Yongjie would probably pour out the wine and not give it to him.

Of the three, Lu Haoyang was the worst at drinking, and of course, he couldn't tell the difference between real and fake. After a few rounds of drinks, he lowered his head, his eyes red, and said, "This is a shabby road. Whoever does it will be unlucky. If you do it well, there's no reward, but if you don't, you'll be held accountable. If I hadn't been ostracized and framed, I wouldn't have come here at all."

Wu Yongjie and Ling Fengxi looked at each other. In fact, everyone has their own troubles in their hearts. Wu Yongjie almost didn't dare to come to Xitian Mountain.

But he wouldn't say it out loud, because if he did, he would seem weak and appear incompetent.

Wu Yongjie just sighed in agreement, "Oh no!"

Lu Haoyang hadn't finished speaking yet. He continued, "This place, where ghosts don't even lay eggs, is icy cold, as terrifying as Antarctica. Let me tell you, I, Lu Haoyang, am a man of courage. Otherwise, I would never come here. I came here to share the good and the bad with you, but during this time, I have been ignored and excluded by you."

Ling Fengxi is not only the project leader, but also a forestry officer seconded from Zhaosu. Of course, he is also working for the smooth progress of the project. When he heard this suddenly, he was immediately unhappy.

"It's my fault for not entertaining you well. If you have any conditions, you can ask them now."

"I don't have any other conditions. You all boil milk in your tent at night, but it's so quiet over here..."

Wu Yongjie really didn't expect this to happen, and couldn't help but say "oh" again.

Lu Haoyang lowered his head even more, as if he was about to pass out drunk, "Besides, there are no beauties to look at. Why can't that girl named Gulinar give us some milk too?

During this period, I also went to the surrounding herdsmen, but they refused to give me any gifts. It’s strange, why do they only give you face? Is my face worthless? "

Wu Yongjie sighed again, "Oh no!"

……

Naturally, the day after Lu Haoyang was "drunk", milk was arranged for everyone in his camp. It was Aiben who went to Lu Haoyang's camp to deliver milk. Gulinar insisted on staying in the medical team's camp, and today she finally met Ye Minglang.

Ye Minglang blushed after just one look at Gulinar, turned his face away, and after a few seconds he remembered that he should say hello to Gulinar.

When he turned around again, he found that Gulinar not only did not leave, but was even closer to him, staring at Ye Minglang's face with passionate eyes.

Ye Minglang's face turned redder, but this time he didn't hide, "Gu, Guli, Nar..."

Gulinar covered her mouth and laughed, "My name is a bit difficult to pronounce, you can call me by my name in your language."

"Oh?" Ye Minglang expressed great interest.

"Gulinar means bright and beautiful flowers. Why don't you just simplify it and call me Huaduoer?"

"Flowers, flowers...you, you're here?"

The greeting was finally sent out.

Gulinar doubled over with laughter, "Oh, why are you speaking Chinese and still stuttering..."

Fang Ya suddenly saw that the young couple had clearly developed an inexplicable affection for each other in this harsh environment. For some reason, she felt a lot of emotions in her heart and suddenly felt envious.

Cheng Yue came over at this time and said anxiously, "Doctor Fang, there was a fight over there, and Lin Jinghui was injured."

She was quite noisy, and Ye Minglang heard it too. He said to Gulinar, "Hua Duo, wait here for me. I'll go check out the situation and then report to the leader."

Gulinar nodded and said, "Go quickly."

Lin Jinghui had a broken head and was bleeding a lot. Wu Yongjie seemed to be a little afraid of blood. He fainted when he saw this situation and was helped outside. When Ye Minglang rushed into Fang Ya's medical room, the situation was even worse. There was another person with a broken head and several others with bruised faces and noses. It turned out to be a group fight.
