501: Rabbit meat for steamed buns
The others also gathered around the campfire, greedily enjoying the aroma of roasted rabbit smeared with honey.
A few drops of oil (or honey) dripped down and hit the fire with a crackling sound.
The bearded captain said with a pained look:
"Okay, keep grilling! The oil is all gone! It's too dry and won't taste good!"
The Savage also felt that the rabbit was almost done, so he took it off the fire and brought it to Director Zhou:
"Come on, Captain, try it while it's hot, or it'll get cold soon."
The temperature here is very low. Even if the steamed buns are just out of the pot, they are still hot when you first hold them in your hands, but they may have become cold by the time you take the last bite.
Zhou Ziheng looked at the whole roasted rabbit served in front of him and the sizzling fat on it, but he still had no appetite.
But he still took the rabbit meat, tore off a front leg from the hot rabbit, and handed the rest to the bearded captain:
"Let's share it and eat it."
roar!
A silent cheer.
It was as if someone suddenly gave an order, and more than 20 people rushed forward to grab the items, fearing that they would miss out if they fell behind.
There are more than 20 people and there is only one piece of rabbit meat. It is impossible for everyone to have a share.
The bearded captain held the roasted rabbit in his arms and roared:
"Don't fight, no one, just wait for me to divide it up! The more you fight, the less you'll get! Let's see who's still fighting, Wang Ermao, you won't get any rabbit meat today!"
Wang Ermao, who was about to drown in saliva when he saw that he had touched the hot rabbit meat, was startled and quickly retracted his hand.
The others also hurriedly retreated.
The bearded captain finally protected the roasted rabbit in his arms perfectly.
It's just a piece of rabbit meat, and each person will only take a bite and it's gone.
Where is enough to divide?
What should I do then?
You can't just come up and lick it, right?
The bearded captain simply turned his attention to the other rabbit in the savage's hand.
At this time, the savage was still confused. He had never expected that the commander would only pull out one front leg and distribute the rest to the people in the company!
It's like giving your most precious thing to someone else with great pain, but the other person doesn't care at all and gives it away on the spot.
This is even more painful - doubly painful!
The bearded captain said to the still confused savage:
"Hey, kid, this piece of rabbit meat is yours as a gift to the manager. You can't accept money if you say you don't want to. Don't you have another one in your hand? I'll exchange it with you for a steamed bun."
"Yes, exchange it for steamed buns!"
When the logging company heard that the captain wanted to exchange rabbit meat for food, they all cheered.
They often exchanged grain for meat and had gained experience.
I have changed raw meat, cooked meat, and even roe deer heads and offal.
Anyway, as long as one party has it and the other party is willing to exchange it, there is nothing they won’t exchange it for!
Trading is not allowed, but no one stipulates that bartering is not allowed.
——This time, the savage was not very willing.
He was carrying two pieces of rabbit meat and wanted to sell them for money!
As a result, one was given away for free, and they wanted to exchange the other one for steamed buns!
Isn’t that a loss?
However, the savage knew that if he did not change, he would offend the entire logging company.
You must not offend these people. You are still hoping to earn their money and take advantage of their farms in the future.
So I had to reluctantly give up and made an eight with my hands:
"Eight steamed buns."
"Bullshit, four is good enough, unless you give me eight steamed buns!"
"Four is absolutely impossible. Even a raw rabbit would cost more than that. I've skinned it and roasted it for you, and I've even smeared it with several layers of honey. The honey alone is worth two steamed buns."
"Five, no more!"
"Seven! No fewer!"
“…”
The two sides engaged in a tug-of-war over whether to exchange a piece of roasted rabbit for five or seven steamed buns.
No one gives in to anyone else.
It seems that both sides bargained a lot.
The bearded captain was very strong and refused to give in at all, especially in front of Director Zhou, and he would not give more.
What if I give too much and Director Zhou gets angry and pursues the matter?
So you must not give more!
The savage was not in a hurry to get angry. He spoke slowly and leisurely, as if deliberately wearing out the bearded captain's patience.
Sure enough, in the end, Captain Beard and the others became impatient and added another number:
"Six steamed buns, you can change them if you want!"
Having said that, the savage decided to quit while he was ahead:
"Okay, six is six—but let's add two more steamed buns."
"You—" The bearded captain blew his beard and glared angrily, "You are such a calculating guy! I can even squeeze oil out of the snow for you!"
The savage looked heartbroken as if he had lost everything:
"If I took this honey-coated roasted rabbit outside, it would be worth at least ten steamed buns. I lost half of it today."
No, including the one given to the director, I lost more than half!
But there is no way, it is impossible to make a profit without loss forever in business.
I got to know the manager today. I will think of other ways to make back the money I lost on the rabbits today!
The two sides agreed on a price.
The bearded captain asked someone to bring six white flour steamed buns and two cornmeal steamed buns to the savages.
The savage gave them the roasted rabbit in his hand and picked up the steamed buns.
Seeing that this roasted rabbit meat, which could be sold for at least one yuan on the black market, was only exchanged for a few steamed buns, he couldn't help but sigh and went to look at the manager again.
The director was still sitting on the big rock, completely ignoring the dispute here, chewing rabbit meat with no expression on his face.
That's beautiful
The delicious rabbit leg was like a piece of dry steamed bread in his mouth.
Somehow, the savage always felt that the manager seemed unhappy.
What's there to be unhappy about?
Being the manager, having money and power, eating rabbit meat, what else could be unhappy in this world?
Anyway, Ye Ren believes that a decent and successful person like Zhou Ziheng must have no worries in life.
After the savage "sold" the two rabbits in his hand, he took the six steamed buns and two cornmeal steamed buns he got in exchange and left.
At this time, Zhou Ziheng slowly raised his eyelids and looked at the back of the savage.
Looking at the savage's tall stature and the way he walked, the more I looked, the more familiar he seemed.
Zhou Ziheng prides himself on having a good memory. If he meets someone who looks familiar, he will definitely be able to remember his connection with that person or where he has seen him before.
But this savage looked familiar, but he couldn't remember any clues.
This made him a little confused.
But it doesn’t matter. Zhou Ziheng knows that this guy will come again tomorrow.
It's obvious that this person wanted to make his own money, but not only did he fail to do so, he even lost a rabbit. He will definitely find a way to make it up tomorrow.
This savage is indeed quite clever, as he was able to expand his business to the most remote logging company.
Over there, the bearded captain got two roasted rabbits and ordered someone to get a chopping board and a stone knife from the tent.
