Lin Ye's work efficiency is even higher than Meng Yiming imagined.
In less than a month, oil was found.
That afternoon, Meng Yiming witnessed the exploration team's carnival.
A large group of men threw the only woman high into the air, again and again.
Is it really okay for you to abandon a woman like this?
However, these workers did not consider Lin Ye as a woman, and even Lin Ye herself did not consider herself a woman.
She laughed out loud with joy, and kicked her legs with excitement when she was thrown high into the air.
In the afternoon, everyone returned to the base.
The good news of finding oil reached everyone's ears in an instant.
The canteen chef waved his big spoon and said, "To celebrate the discovery of oil, we'll add a dish tonight!"
Everyone's eyes lit up and they asked in unison, "What dish?"
"Corn and potatoes!"
Everyone rolled their eyes in disgust and walked out without looking back.
Lin was also very happy. The first thing he did when he returned to the base was to go back to the dormitory and write a letter.
She wanted to tell her parents the good news as soon as possible.
She stayed in the dormitory until dinner time.
Meng Yiming knocked on her door, "Lin Ye, it's time for dinner."
Lin Ye didn't feel hungry at all. She turned around and said to Meng Yiming at the door, "I'm not hungry. I won't eat tonight."
Meng Yiming said: "When we heard that the canteen chef had added more dishes, everyone rushed to the canteen desperately."
A roast chicken appeared in Lin Ye's mind.
The food here is really bad. Almost every meal consists of corn and potatoes. We only eat meat every two or three days. However, there are so many people and so little meat that each person can only eat a small amount to satisfy their cravings.
Lin Ye swallowed and stood up, "Let's go!"
As he was speaking, Lin Ye had already rushed out of the dormitory.
Meng Yiming looked at Lin Ye's back as he charged towards the cafeteria, and was a little worried that he would be beaten later.
While waiting in line, Lin would stretch his neck to look at the lunch boxes in the hands of his co-workers who had already prepared their meals.
She didn't seem to see the roast chicken?
Finally it was her turn to get food. She looked at the big bowl on the table several times but didn't see the roast chicken.
"Isn't there more food?" she asked.
"Here." The canteen chef knocked on one of the large basins with a large spoon. "Mr. Lin, this is all thanks to you!"
Lin also saw that there were corn and potatoes in the basin. She asked again, "Where's the roast chicken?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone stared at the cafeteria chef with murderous eyes.
This look was as if the canteen chef had prepared a special meal for Lin Ye, only giving her the roast chicken.
The canteen chef banged the pot fiercely, "Who spread the rumor about eating roast chicken?!"
Everyone stared at Lin Ye again, and Lin Ye shrank his neck.
She wanted to apologize and say she had misunderstood, but the words that came out were: "Doctor Meng."
Lin was also confused for a moment.
She has always been bold and responsible, what happened today? !
After a moment, she comforted herself again, it doesn't matter, it's better for me to let my friend die than for me to die.
Look at the fierce look of the cafeteria chef, as if he wants to knock out the teeth of the rumormonger with the big spoon in his hand.
Meng Yiming, who was queuing at the back, said, "..."
Feeling everyone's gazes that wanted to beat him up, he cleared his throat and said, "Although I said that, I was just expressing my desire to eat roast chicken and my good expectations for the food in the cafeteria."
"Why don't you expect to eat a dragon?!" The canteen chef banged on the bowl again, "The food here has standards. You can't just eat whatever you want!"
Meng Yiming nodded, "I'm sorry, I was abrupt."
The cafeteria chef said: "From now on, just decide what you want to eat. Don't tell others and let them misunderstand you!"
Meng Yiming and Lin Ye also got their meals and sat at the table.
Lin Ye sincerely apologized, "Doctor Meng, I'm sorry!"
"What are you apologizing for?" Meng Yiming said generously, "Isn't this what men are used to do? If you need anything in the future, just let me take over."
Lin Ye: “…”
She was always used to handling things on her own, but when someone suddenly told her that she needed him to handle the problem, her chest felt like it was hit by something and her heart tightened.
Meng Yiming changed the subject, "Now, you can rest for a while."
"Not yet." Lin Ye said, "I have to go there in the next few days."
"How long will it take?"
"What's up?"
Meng Yiming: "Nothing, I just thought I'd leave soon and wanted to go out for a walk."
Lin nodded, showing her understanding. Then she said, "But there's nothing much here. The only place to go shopping is in the city, but you complain about the sanitation there. You won't eat this, and you don't like that."
Hearing this, Meng Yiming looked at Lin Ye with disgust again.
The things sold in the city are so colorful that you can’t eat them. But Lin Ye, as long as people dare to buy them, she will eat them and stuff everything into her mouth. I’m really impressed!
"It's not like we have to eat," Meng Yiming said. "We should go out and see the scenery and the culture."
"You haven't seen enough of the scenery yet, let's go outdoors every day..."
Lin Ye looked at Meng Yiming, whose eyes were even more ferocious than those of the cafeteria chef, and changed the rest of his words to, "I may have to be busy for another three to five days."
Meng Yiming's eyes turned gentle, and he nodded with satisfaction, "When you're done, go out and take a look."
Lin was busy for another three days and basically finished the work.
The next step was to wait for the mining experts to arrive with their people, and then she could explain everything she needed to, and then she could go back.
The exploration team no longer needs everyone to go out to work every day. When people are free, there will be spare cars.
Meng Yiming and Lin Ye borrowed a car and drove to the city.
By the time we got to town, it was almost time for lunch.
Lin Ye looked at the roadside stall and said, "Wait for me to eat a bowl."
Meng Yiming emphasized, "I didn't eat it either!"
"You said you'd rather starve to death than eat these things."
Meng Yiming took two deep breaths and said, "Let's not eat here. Let's go to the restaurant in front."
The two of them had been to the city many times and were basically familiar with the place.
Although it is called a restaurant, it is actually not much more upscale than a roadside stall. It is just a bigger place and not open air.
The food here is mushy.
The two ordered dough, a paste made of corn, chicken and some unknown things, and a paste made of vegetables, tomatoes and beef.
The dough is dipped in these two pastes and eaten. This dough is similar to our steamed corn bread, but the taste is different.
Because the tastes vary greatly and there are no chopsticks, people have to eat with their hands, so almost no one eats out.
Lin Ye had already picked up the dough and started eating it, while Meng Yiming was still hesitating with a look of disgust on his face.
