Traveling through 70's wine

Chapter 245 Pickled Fish

She was alone and had nowhere to go, so she concentrated on her practice and completed the shackles of the seventh meridian in one go. Finally, the eighth meridian appeared on the jade piece, which was a bit like the Liver Meridian of Foot Jueyin, running from the toes to the Qimen on the chest, but continuing to extend upward to the Shenting. Wen Qing began to practice along the new route.

She never knew the name of this set of exercises, but she felt that the practice path on this piece of jade was related to strengthening mental power. Of course, it was also good for fitness. After she practiced, her body became strong, her steps were light, her reactions were quick, and it seemed that her body was nurturing infinite power. She was full of confidence in herself.

After the training, Wen Qing harvested all 1100 mature fields. This time she planted all soybeans and let the land rest for a season. This time she harvested a total of more than 700 tons of grain. She stored this batch of grain in the space warehouse and would not take it out for the time being.

Put all kinds of straw after threshing into a crusher, crush them all, burn them all and bury them in the pit by the lake. Then pour the pond mud cleaned out after digging lotus roots into it. After the soybeans are ripe, plow the land again and sprinkle these fertilizers into the fields to ensure higher crop yields.

Alas, in addition to storing things, the vast fields in her current space only add to her burden. She needs to constantly cultivate and harvest, which requires hard work.

Wen Qing also carefully selected the fullest sorghum, corn, rice, wheat and peas to be used as seeds for planting next time. It seems that this is called self-saved seeds, which is beneficial for maintaining the genes of China's traditional crops.

The newly reclaimed medicinal garden was growing well, and the seedlings were growing very strong. Wen Qing took a look around and returned to the small bamboo building. He thought that he did not see the chickens free-range in the woods or the lion-headed geese this time. He wondered where they had gone.

After lunch, Wen Qing went to the tea garden to pick tea and make tea, and a day passed.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the snow stopped. Wen Qing put on a long cotton coat, a hat and a scarf, and drove to the Badaling Great Wall. She had been here before she married Zhuang Xien. Five years had passed in a flash. She parked the car downstairs and climbed up the stairs by herself.

After the heavy snow, the weather was very cold and the Great Wall was deserted. Wen Qing climbed up the mottled wall. The steps under her feet were bumpy from thousands of years of footsteps. The wars, wind and frost over the endless years had caused the solid bricks and stones to collapse and be damaged. Wen Qing climbed to the end of the wall, stood on the top of the mountain, and looked to the north. The yellow grass and white snow had a kind of desolate beauty.

She stood on the Great Wall for a long time. The cold wind was howling. Even though she was wearing a hat, scarf and thick cotton clothes, she still felt cold. She did not dare to stay there for long, so she slowly walked down the Great Wall and drove home.

Wen Qing always felt that she had forgotten something, but when she had some free time, she remembered that Ping An Electric Bicycle Factory needed new materials and batteries.

Taking advantage of the holiday when she had nothing to do, she went to the University of Technology, took out the library card specially approved by Director Xu, and checked the development of electric bicycles both at home and abroad. She found that many research departments were working on solving the four major problems of electric vehicles: motors, batteries, chargers and controllers. Some research institutes had also produced some research results, but most of them were still in the exploratory stage and had only some scattered results.

Wen Qing took the opportunity of paying New Year's greetings to Director Xu to tell him about the idea of ​​cooperating with the University of Technology to carry out electric vehicle research. She promised that Ping An Electric Bicycle Factory would provide a certain amount of research funds every year, but the research results after the project was approved would belong to Ping An Electric Bicycle Factory. Director Xu thought it was worth considering and asked her to submit a preliminary plan.

Wen Qing called Director Huang, who was very happy and said that he would immediately arrange for someone to write a plan and then let He Weixing bring it over. After Wen Qing replied to Director Xu, it was confirmed that everyone would find time to meet after the Spring Festival to discuss the matter in person.

After leaving Director Xu's house, it was not yet noon, but Wen Qing did not plan to go home immediately. She drove to Xidan and found a small restaurant to eat. It was quite early when she arrived, so there were not many people. She found an empty table and sat down to order food. After she ordered, four people, two men and two women, came in from outside the restaurant and sat down at a table next to her.

More than 7 minutes later, the waiter came over with the pickled fish she ordered. When passing by the four people, one woman insisted that it was the dish they ordered. The waiter stepped back with the tray and hurriedly explained: "I'm sorry, miss, this is for table 5. You, table , will have to wait."

The woman said arrogantly: "We are table 5 at the front of the line." She stood up and tried to grab the tray from the waiter.

Wen Qing saw that the waitress was almost overwhelmed, so she hurried over. The waitress explained, "I'm sorry, we serve the dishes in the order in which they were ordered."

Wen Qing took the big bowl of pickled fish, and the woman reached out to grab it. She snatched the bowl from Wen Qing's hand and screamed "Ouch!". The whole bowl of fish soup was poured all over her. Although she was wearing thick clothes in winter, some fish soup spilled on her hands. The woman screamed, and the other three stood up and surrounded Wen Qing.

Another woman said to Wen Qing, "Sister, you can't throw fish soup at people. Now they are scalded. What do you think we should do?"

Wen Qing said, "She was the one who came to snatch it. Who can I blame for not keeping it steady? You should also compensate me with a portion of pickled fish."

There was a loud argument here, and the restaurant owner ran out from the kitchen, asked the waiter next to him what happened, and came over to persuade them: "It was indeed because this lady tried to grab the fish soup and didn't hold it steady that it spilled. I suggest you go to the hospital to see if you are burned?"

The scalded woman kept screaming “Ouch, ouch”. The man who was traveling with her went out and called 110 to ask the police to solve the problem. The boss was very upset, and when he saw that he could not persuade her, he gave up and waited for the police to arrive.

Wen Qing ignored them. After the other two dishes she ordered were served, she sat down to eat. She was a little hungry after running around for the whole morning.

Half an hour later, the police arrived, asked what happened, and then talked to the waiter and the guests dining nearby to find out what happened. The waiter and Wen Qing both said that the woman tried to grab the bowl for fish soup or rice soup, but the woman and her companions said that Wen Qing deliberately threw the soup at people.

The boss said, "Comrade police, we have table numbers when we deliver food." I found a small note on the waiter's tray, and it was indeed table number 7.

I asked other customers and they all said that it was the woman who insisted that this was the dish they ordered and who tried to snatch the fish soup from other people's hands. She deserved it.

Seeing that the policeman was a little unsure, the boss said, "Comrade police, we have surveillance video in our store." He didn't want to say that there were surveillance cameras in his store because he was worried that diners would feel uncomfortable dining in the store. Now he had no choice but to say it.

The policeman was very surprised. There are very few places with surveillance cameras nowadays, and it is even rarer in restaurants. However, he did not say anything and asked the boss to pull up the surveillance video.

The surveillance video was recorded on a videotape. The part where the video recorder was turned over to the scene where the woman was grabbing the fish soup. It was indeed the woman who took the initiative to grab the fish soup brought by the waiter. After Wen Qing took it, she snatched the soup from Wen Qing's hand and then overturned the fish soup in the basin.

Wen Qing said, "Comrade, you see, it was indeed this woman who didn't hold herself steady. I was so far away, and the fish soup didn't splash on me."

The police determined that it was the woman who spilled the fish soup and it had nothing to do with Wen Qing. The woman took full responsibility and asked the four people to pay for the fish soup.

After paying the bill, Wen Qing thanked the boss and said, "If it weren't for the surveillance, it would be hard for me to explain it clearly."

The boss said helplessly: "Some time ago, someone made trouble in our store and said that there was dirt in our dishes. I couldn't accept it, so I bought this surveillance camera. It seems that I should add another set to record the whole house clearly."

Wen Qing gave a thumbs up and said, "Boss, you are wise. I think we should add another team in the kitchen."

The boss nodded and went to buy two sets. Later, because his business was good, he was framed by his rivals. Thanks to the video footage in the kitchen, he was able to clear himself of responsibility and catch the culprit. This is a later story.

Wen Qing did put the soup bowl in the woman's hand, but then flicked a paper ball onto the woman's elbow. The woman's hand went limp and the boiling soup bowl was knocked over. The woman deserved a lesson for being so unreasonable.
