And so, the afternoon passed. Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan returned to their dormitory once again.
This time, the two were more experienced and didn't dare to dawdle while preparing so much food. They took out a plate of stir-fried green beans, a plate of wood ear mushrooms and yam, a plate of mushroom and beef soup, and fried two eggs. They ate it with big white steamed buns.
After finishing their meal, Shen Yanming cleaned up the dishes and then went into the space with Bi Qiaoan.
They prepared a lot of ingredients, such as pork ribs, beef and mutton, tofu, crucian carp, potatoes, yams, shiitake mushrooms, etc., just to cook some soups that take time in the kitchen of the mobile villa.
That way, when we need to eat, we can just take food from the space without having to go through the trouble of making it ourselves.
As for not using the dormitory kitchen to cook these things, firstly, they have to participate in evening training later and don't have time to watch the fire, which is unsafe. Secondly, they are worried that the aroma will be too strong and attract the attention of the neighbors.
I just moved in and haven't settled in yet, so it's better to be safe than sorry.
The things in the space were readily available, and soon Shen Yanming prepared the ingredients for crucian carp and tofu soup and yam and pork rib soup and placed them on the cutting board.
Both stoves were lit, with a clay pot simmering on the fire, and meat cooking inside. They were just waiting for the right moment to add the seasonings.
Neither of them was worried about that. During evening training, he would keep an eye on the time and remind Qiao An to use her mind to put the ingredients in when it was almost time.
During the cooking process, there's no need to worry about it sticking to the pot or overflowing. Bi Qiaoan can check on it from time to time, stirring it when necessary and turning off the heat when needed.
Hehe, portable stove, that's so convenient.
After they finished preparing, they ate a few more loquats before leaving the space. It was already past six o'clock, so Shen Yanming quickly told Bi Qiaoan to lie down on the bed for a while while he went to pack up the things needed for the evening training.
Hearing Li Gangtie say that the training content was all-encompassing, he was very curious about what exactly it included.
Although no one reminded him to prepare paper and pen, he thought that since he was going to study, he should have the right attitude.
Don't tell me you have a good memory and don't need outdated methods like paper and pen. A good memory isn't something you can see. If you don't prepare anything, others will just think you don't value evening training. That's common knowledge, and nobody can change that.
Of course, he also had to prepare water and cushions, in case his wife got thirsty or uncomfortable sitting down.
According to Li Gangtie, evening training involves classes, which means less freedom than working during the day. You might have to sit for two hours straight without a break.
Therefore, it's always better to be prepared for many things.
Shen Yanming moved quickly; in less than two minutes, he had packed the things he needed to take into a backpack.
Then I set an alarm, lay down next to Joan, and closed my eyes to rest.
Actually, he wasn't tired at all after a day's work. It was just that he was used to the busy life of walking around Suzhou, and suddenly being confined to the office made him feel restless.
In reality, he was also a little anxious, but he hid it very well, and Bi Qiaoan was unaware of it.
He must have been exhausted, because he drifted off to sleep after lying in bed for a short while. But just as he drifted off, he heard the alarm clock ring.
I've actually slept for about ten minutes, but it feels like it was just a blink of an eye.
Shen Yanming struggled to get out of bed, pinching his brow, and then woke up Bi Qiaoan. The two quickly tidied up and went to the main conference room with their bags on their backs.
It was a conference room that could hold one or two hundred people, with a podium and multimedia equipment; it really felt like stepping back into my student days.
Women are already extremely rare in the guard team, especially someone like Bi Qiaoan, who passed the assessment and successfully joined the team while pregnant.
Therefore, the two attracted everyone's attention as soon as they reached the door.
Because those gathered here were not just the new recruits led by Li Gangtie; many people had long heard that the guard team had recruited a pregnant woman, and today was a rare sight indeed.
Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan were already used to such scrutinizing gazes, and they didn't care. They found a seat in the front row near the aisle and sat down.
Within minutes, another group of people came in one after another, and they each found someone they knew and sat together.
The seat next to Bi Qiaoan remained empty; perhaps everyone was worried about an accident and subconsciously avoided it.
It wasn't until almost seven o'clock that a group of people walked in from outside. Yu Shui was at the front, followed by Zhu Shiliang and a few others.
Upon seeing the two, Yu Shui greeted them excitedly, and then, disregarding any taboos, sat down directly next to Bi Qiaoan.
Upon seeing this, Zhu Shiliang immediately led his brothers to sit in that row.
Just as the two groups were about to discuss their work for the day, a middle-aged man in uniform walked in, followed by four guards carrying boxes and a white coat carrying a first-aid kit.
A middle-aged man in uniform walked onto the podium and said in an extremely authoritative voice, "Hello everyone, I am your temporary mentor, Qi Xili. You can call me Captain Qi. For the next period of time, I will be accompanying you through evening training."
I'm sure your team leader told you before you came that there would be an assessment during evening training. This isn't an exaggeration; if you fail the assessment, you really will be reassigned to a contract worker team or sent back to your original unit.
Furthermore, don't view evening training as a burden. Relax, and you'll discover that this place will open up a whole new world for you.
Qi Xili glanced at everyone, said nothing, bent down to turn on his computer, and projected his prepared courseware onto the large screen.
"You all participated in the rescue mission in the epicenter city some time ago. What are your thoughts on that?"
As soon as he finished asking the question, the audience erupted in noise, with the newlyweds whispering among themselves and sharing what they had seen and heard.
Qi Xili wasn't asking anyone to answer the question, but rather using it as a starting point to introduce the topic of today's discussion.
After the scene quieted down, he said, "What you saw was actually a discounted version of the scene. You haven't seen the truly bloody and cruel scenes yet."
Before anyone could figure out what he meant, he immediately started playing a video.
Those were images of the epicenter cities taken by Qinghua Kingdom's satellites after the earthquake. It was at this moment that everyone truly felt the power of this disaster.
An earthquake directly destroyed half of Qinghua Kingdom.
But that wasn't the most unbearable part. What followed was the real blow.
The guards pulled out various severed limbs and remains from the ruins; many people's limbs had been crushed into a bloody pulp by boulders.
The scene even included red and white brain matter, white bones protruding from the skin, and large and small intestines spilling out of the abdomen.
Many people present vomited upon seeing this scene.
