Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 617 521. Donation
Li Xiao looked at Uncle Li who was a bit reluctant to speak, and showed a knowing smile.
"Uncle wants me to help fund this school."
Uncle Li was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly.
"Yes, I have this idea, because I know you are an anchor, I thought, can I trouble you to do me a favor, I am begging you here."
As Uncle Li said, he looked like he wanted to kneel down for Li Xiao, so scared that Li Xiao quickly stopped him.
"Uncle, don't be like this, aren't you taking my life away?"
Li Xiao thought for a while, "Uncle, to be honest, I don't have much savings. What I can do is to help you promote it on the Internet. As for more, I have no way to give you a confirmation letter."
Hearing what Li Xiao said, Uncle Li was not disappointed, instead he looked at Li Xiao with tears in his eyes.
"Whether it works or not, I'm here to thank you for the children!"
Li Xiao waved his hand, then opened the live broadcast room, explained the matter clearly, and told them very clearly that if you have the financial strength and want to help, you can participate, but don't follow him. The footsteps are still paying for him to save face.
Not long after, someone sent a private message to Li Xiao, saying that he wanted to help.
Li Xiao's eyes lit up, but it suddenly occurred to him that he wouldn't do this kind of funding either!You can't let fans send money to him, and then he transfers it to Uncle Li.
In that case, let's not talk about trouble or not, it's hard for him to explain just where the money went, and if someone said that he was greedy for the money, he couldn't explain it clearly either.
Fortunately, it may be that Li Xiao and Uncle Li's luck is really good, and there is a fan who is an employee of the funding association.
That fan must not be able to directly help Li Xiao with funding, but his leader can.
So after waiting for two days, someone came to the door.
On this day, just after Li Xiao and Chen Xu had lunch in the school cafeteria, someone came to the school, and the person who came was a senior member of the funding association.
The man walked around the school first, and then asked the children some questions before finding Li Xiao.
"Mr. Li, my surname is Tang, you can call me Xiao Tang."
Li Xiao shook his hand, "Hi, thanks for your hard work, for making this trip."
Xiao Tang smiled, "There's nothing to work hard on, it's all as it should be."
The two chatted about funding, and Uncle Li was listening. Then Xiao Tang asked Uncle Li about the school, and immediately decided to support the school.
Now that there is something to help manage the funding, Li Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief, and then posted the matter on the Internet, and then posted Xiao Tang's contact information.
Li Xiao kept 2 yuan for emergency, and donated the rest to the school.
As for the others, Xiao Tang was in charge of this school, so I left them all to him.
Xiao Tang acted quickly. After collecting the donations, he first contacted the construction of the teaching building, and then began to improve the cafeteria.
The environment in which students receive education and board and lodging are always the most important.
Uncle Li first expressed his gratitude to Xiao Tang, and then dragged Li Xiao to buy them a drink.
Li Xiao didn't refuse either.
A few people didn't go to the restaurant outside, but bought vegetables and cooked them by themselves.
The cook was the woman who served them in the back kitchen that day, that was Uncle Li's wife.
This school can be said to be supported by the two of them.
Although Uncle Li is the principal, he is also in charge of teaching. Uncle Li's wife is busy buying and cooking for the students.
It is worth mentioning that under the call of Li Xiao, some students who study normal education also expressed their willingness to come here to teach.
But Li Xiao said directly from the beginning that the environment and conditions here were clearly explained to them, and he didn't want someone to come here with a feverish head and reckless, that would be irresponsible to themselves.
And Li Xiao's behavior made him a lot of fans.
After drinking for three rounds, Uncle Li obviously drank a little too much, holding Li Xiao's hand, weeping uncontrollably.
"I came to teach here more than 20 years ago. It's not that I didn't think about leaving, but I couldn't bear to look at the eyes of those children! Now, many of the children I teach are children of my former students, even grandchildren. It can be said that I have dedicated my whole life to this group of children, but I have no regrets!"
Li Xiao sighed, he had always admired this kind of person, so he toasted Uncle Li with a glass of wine, and Uncle Li took it and drank it directly.
"Really, thank you so much. The conditions here are really difficult. Why did I become the principal? Because the previous principal couldn't stand this, so he left directly. No one cares about those children. The teachers here Not much at all, I gritted my teeth and went on, I can't let this school be so yellow."
Li Xiao also drank a glass of wine, "I really admire you, there are not many people like you now."
Uncle Li smiled, "To be honest, I also admire myself, hahahaha, these children are lucky to have you here."
Speaking of this, Uncle Li sighed again, "If I hadn't really had no money, and I couldn't even afford to eat, I wouldn't have gone to you in such a hurry. Really, there is no way, I hope you can forgive me."
"At this time, there is nothing to forgive or not, and you have nothing to do."
Uncle Li's temporary home was a little bit embarrassing, "It's just that there is no other way."
Several people pushed the cups and changed the cups, and at the end they were a little unconscious. It was Uncle Li's wife who supported them and sent them to the room one by one.
Fortunately, Li Xiao's wine was good, and he didn't vomit in the middle of the night, and he didn't trouble others to clean it up.
However, Chen Xu's wine quality was really not very good. When Li Xiao woke up the next day, he still felt that Chen Xu's magical voice filled his ears.
At this time, Li Xiao felt lucky. Fortunately, there was no one living in this homestay, otherwise Li Xiao's movement last night would have to be complained.
The frightening thing was that Chen Xu himself didn't know what happened.
When Li Xiao said that he sang and howled until the early hours of the morning, he still didn't believe it, so he insisted that Li Xiao lied to him. Fortunately, Uncle Li helped to testify.
"Hey, what, am I really such a nuisance?"
Li Xiao rubbed her hangover head, "Just as long as you know something in your heart, I hope you won't drink so much when you go out next time, okay?"
Li Xiao nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
Uncle Li didn't speak at the side, he just kept laughing, and Chen Xu felt embarrassed when he laughed.
"I won't drink so much next time!"
The two stayed here for a few more days, and seeing that everything was on the right track, some people from the sponsorship association that Xiao Tang belonged to came to help, and even some bosses came to visit the school, and then decided to sponsor the school.
Uncle Li also took a group photo with the bosses, the employees of the funding association, Li Xiao, Chen Xu, and the children, and said that it would be placed in the hall when the school was completed.
It looked almost the same here, so Li Xiao planned to go to the final destination - the Jokhang Temple.
But Chen Xu said he wanted to stay and take a look, so he didn't go with Li Xiao.
As a result, Li Xiao became a loner again.
At noon this day, seeing that it was not long before the Jokhang Temple, Li Xiao decided to eat something better. In the past few days in the car, he just had to eat as long as he could, which made his mouth very hungry now. taste.
So when I saw the uneaten Tibetan pork trotters in the refrigerator, I couldn't help secreting a lot of saliva in my mouth.
This trotter was not the one they packed in the first place.
The one that was packed before has been eaten long ago, and it was packed by Li Xiao before he left. He also packed a portion of milk cake and fried noodles by the way.
This milk cake was recommended by Uncle Li. I heard it was delicious, but it was the first time for Li Xiao to eat it.
"Hello, everyone, please turn your little eyes this way~"
Li Xiao pointed the camera at his dining table.
"Did you see it? This brown, lumpy thing is called milk dregs cake, which is also called milk dregs cake. It is usually made of brown sugar or white sugar, ghee and fine milk dregs. It was recommended by Principal Li. Let's taste it now."
As Li Xiao said, he directly took a piece and put it in his mouth.
"The milk flavor is still very strong. We bought this sour milk dregs cake, so it will have a yogurt flavor. Generally speaking, it is good."
Li Xiao picked up another piece of fried noodles.
"Many people may have seen this, it's a kind of pasta."
Li Xiao said, took a bite of the fried noodles, and showed everyone the inside of the noodles.
"This is pure pasta. Knead some sugar or something into the noodles, then roll out the noodles, cut them into strips or pieces, and fry them in a frying pan. It has no special taste. Just with a hint of sweetness, it’s okay.”
Li Xiao also tasted a few mouthfuls before moving on to the main event - Tibetan fragrant pig's trotters.
"This pig's trotter, it's a pity. It's been in the refrigerator for a day. Although it's not bad, the taste is not as good as the one just out of the pan, but it's still okay."
In the final analysis, it is not an exaggeration to say that milk cakes and fried noodles are snacks, so when there is only one dish of pig's trotters for dinner, Li Xiao is honored to eat salty.
"Oh, I wouldn't be lazy if I knew it earlier, just get some staple food."
But it's useless to regret it now, he's almost finished eating, so Li Xiao can only eat noodles as his staple food.
After finishing the meal, Li Xiao took a rest in the car before continuing towards the direction of the Jokhang Temple. Before dark, he could be considered to have arrived at the Jokhang Temple.
But at this time, Li Xiao didn't intend to visit the inside of the Jokhang Temple, but stopped in the parking space next to it, and just rested in the car overnight.
But to be honest, sleeping in the car feels really good.
This is a caravan itself, and it has a bed. Not to mention it is very comfortable to lie on. When the door is closed and the curtains are drawn, it feels very safe.
When he got up the next morning, Li Xiao didn't plan to cook by himself, there was also a food stall here, so he solved it on the spot.
Li Xiao turned on the live broadcast as usual, greeted the fans in the live broadcast room, took a shower, got out of the car and went to eat.
There are also many people at the snack stalls here, after all, there are still many believers who come to the Jokhang Temple.
But no one knows how to sell, and the stall owner is just behind his stall, silently bringing food to the people who come and go.
Li Xiao went to buy some Tibetan buns, a cup of sweet tea and ginseng fruit cake.
This time he didn't eat at the same place, but returned to the car after buying. There was no other reason, it was entirely because there were too many people here, and it was not convenient to eat around here. After all, he still had It's live on mobile.
After Li Xiao returned to the car, he fixed his mobile phone on the table first, and then put the things he bought on the table.
Going shopping this early in the morning, Li Xiao was also a little thirsty, so he couldn't wait to pick up the sweet tea and took a sip, but just after drinking, he saw someone on the barrage asking what is the difference between the sweet tea here and other places .
Li Xiao smiled, "There is nothing different, these things are all the same in the end, just like butter tea, they are all the same."
The taste of sweet tea is always the same, but Li Xiao was a little curious about this Tibetan bun, so he couldn't wait to pick one up.
From the outside, this steamed stuffed bun is no different from the steamed stuffed bun in the Central Plains, except that the seal of the steamed stuffed bun is sunken, and the sunken place is very long, just like the neck of a flask.
Li Xiao took a bite first.
He bought a total of two kinds, one is our normal steamed buns, and the other is fried.
The fried buns are very similar to fried buns. Li Xiao took a bite, and the juice inside burst out instantly, which is also similar to fried buns.
But the taste of this steamed stuffed bun is really good, the stuffing inside is beef, very fresh.
"The taste of this steamed stuffed bun is quite good. It's not the thin-skinned stuffed bun that we said. It's thick-skinned, but the skin is very soft and has absorbed a lot of meat juice. It's delicious and fresh."
As Li Xiao said, he picked up another steamed bun.
"The steamed buns are also good, but I personally prefer the fried buns. The bottom of the fried buns is a bit crispy, and I like it better."
With the sweet tea, Li Xiao ate four steamed buns, which he could still eat, but after looking at the ginseng fruit cake, Li Xiao decided to save some stomach, so that if the ginseng fruit cake tastes good, he can eat more , in case it doesn't taste good, he can go back and eat buns again.
"The taste of this ginseng fruit cake is not much different from the milk cake we eat, but the ginseng fruit cake contains not only ginseng fruit, but also raisins, so it tastes richer."
Because I just ate milk cake yesterday, Li Xiao is not very interested in ginseng fruit cake, but I am quite interested in ginseng fruit. After all, this thing has only been seen in Journey to the West. Li Xiao is a little curious about what it tastes like of.
Thank you guys for the monthly ticket recommendation, thank you

Li Xiao looked at Uncle Li who was a bit reluctant to speak, and showed a knowing smile.
"Uncle wants me to help fund this school."
