Siheyuan: At the beginning, you can absorb good luck to stay alive.

Mei Wenhua looked at Dabai lying on the ground and didn't want to move, and came over to touch its head.

"Dabai, get up quickly and I'll take you to eat!"

Dabai glanced at Mei Wenhua feebly and continued to lie on the ground, not wanting to move at all.

"Little Wenhua, why don't you lock Dabai in the room first?" Officer Lu also saw that Dabai was in a bad state and had no energy at all.

"Comrade, please take us Mei Wenhua to see his room and let him put Dabai in the room." Zhou Jianjun asked the comrade at the front desk of the guest house to take Mei Wenhua to the room.

The comrade at the front desk nodded and took Mei Wenhua to his room.

The room was on the third floor. Seeing that Dabai was struggling to go up the stairs, Mei Wenhua picked up Dabai directly in order not to waste time.

Mei Wenhua lived in room 307. After walking in with Dabai in his arms, Mei Wenhua first gave Dabai some spiritual spring water to drink, and then put a piece of mutton on it.

"Dabai, wait for me in the room. If you're hungry, eat the mutton I gave you. Do you hear me?"

Dabai glanced at Mei Wenhua, chewed the mutton and lay down obediently. He was hungry now!

No need to wait anymore, start eating now.

Mei Wenhua patted Dabai, turned around and walked out of the room, closing the door.

Zhou Jianjun and the others were still waiting for him below, so it was not good for him to stay here with Dabai.

Mei Wenhua ran all the way down, "Chief Chen, I'm really sorry to keep you waiting for so long!"

"It's okay, it's important to arrange Dabai first!" Chief Chen shook his head with a smile, "I can see that Dabai is very important to you!"

"Hehe, that's for sure, Dabai saved our lives this morning!"

"The relationship is really good. Do you need to send Dabai to see a doctor? We have veterinarians in the army?"

"Thank you, Chief Chen, no need. Dabai is just a little motion sick. He will be fine after a short rest!" Mei Wenhua shook his head.

"As long as it's okay, let's go to the cafeteria!"

Chief Chen took Mei Wenhua and the others as they walked to the cafeteria.

The canteen above the army looks very simple, just a row of houses with mud walls, but the surrounding area is very clean!

It was past meal time and no one was eating in the cafeteria.

Chief Chen led Mei Wenhua and the others into the cafeteria and sat on a long table in the middle.

"Xiao Li, go and ask Master Guo to start cooking. Our distinguished guests have arrived. Three comrades, please sit down. The conditions in the army are simple. If there is any lack of hospitality, please bear with me!"

"Comrade Chen, you're welcome. Comrade Lu Yang and I are both from the army. Looking at the familiar canteen, we feel more familiar!" Zhou Jianjun said with a smile, constantly looking at the environment of the canteen.

"Old Zhou, don't tell me, this canteen is very similar to when I was in the army, especially the layout! It's exactly the same!"

"It seems that the only one here who has never been to the army is Little Wenhua. After dinner, I will have someone take you to have a good experience!"

Chief Chen was very good at chatting and took care of each of Mei Wenhua and the others. While chatting, the comrades in the cooking class began to serve the dishes.

The first thing that was served was the stewed mutton. It was served directly in a small basin. It should have been stewed in advance.

Mei Wenhua could smell the mutton soup from a distance.

The smell is a bit strong!

Then there was a large plate of shredded potatoes, a large bowl of stewed radish, and a plate of Chinese cabbage.

The last thing that was served was a bowl of steamed buns.

The steamed buns look a bit yellow, it should be because something else has been added and they are not pure white flour steamed buns.

"Comrade Zhou, Comrade Lu, and Comrade Mei, let's have dinner. This is the condition of our military region. Don't dislike it, you three."

"Chief Chen is being humble. To be honest, being able to eat mutton is much better than when we were in the army!"

"Yes! When we were in the army, we didn't have so much delicious food!" Officer Lu agreed, "But the conditions have improved a lot now, but I didn't expect that it would still be so difficult in the army?"

"Chief Chen, as far as I know, the logistics support of the army should be sufficient now?"

"Alas! You two don't know something. We have funds from above, but we can't purchase things even though we have money!" Chief Chen took a bite of the steamed bun and began to complain.

"Last year there was a drought here and the food harvest was not good. In order not to affect the lives of the local people, we had to go to other places to purchase. However, the cost increased. The increase in cost is irrelevant. The key is the quantity that can be purchased. It’s not much, and we have the funds but there’s nothing we can do!”

"It is indeed difficult to purchase. The national famine has only been alleviated. There are no Yu Niangs in most areas, which is a hardship for the brothers in the army!" Zhou Jianjun nodded.

Mei Wenhua ate the steamed buns silently and tried it with mutton. Apart from the strong smell of mutton, it was still delicious.

This mutton is different from the one in my own space. It should not be the same breed of sheep.

After he was almost finished eating, Mei Wenhua remembered that he still had one important thing that he had not done.

"Chief Chen, can I ask you about someone? Someone from the army."

"Little Wenhua, who do you want to ask about? Is he a relative of yours? What's his name?"

"It's my father. His name is Mei Jian'an. My mother said that he is also a soldier here in Xining, but he has not contacted his family for four or five years." Mei Wenhua said and took out a small black and white photo from his pocket. , handed to Chief Chen.

Chief Chen took the photo and looked at it. It showed a handsome young man in military uniform, and he looked familiar. He must have seen it before, but he couldn't remember it for the moment.

"It looks a bit familiar. His name is Mei Jian'an, right? I'll have someone check him out soon. If he's serving as a soldier like this, he should be found soon."

"Thank you, Chief Chen!" Mei Wenhua stood up and bowed to thank Chief Chen.

"There's no need to be like this. It's just a little effort. There's no need to be so grateful. Besides, I haven't found the person yet! If I do, you can't thank me enough!" Chief Chen quickly helped Mei Wenhua up.

Zhou Jianjun looked at Mei Wenhua, then at Chief Chen, but finally said nothing.

He knew about Mei Wenhua's father and even investigated it, but he couldn't find any specific information.

He is in the army here, maybe Chief Chen can find out some information.

Chief Chen is the head of the military region here. He has real power. If he really wants to help Mei Wenhua, he will definitely find out.

Mei Wenhua shamelessly asked Chief Chen for help because he also liked Chief Chen's identity, so he asked Chief Chen for help cautiously.

"Chief Chen, by the way, if you have enough funds and it's not too expensive, I have special channels to get a batch of grain and meat."

"Xiao Wenhua, is it true? You can really get it. It's no problem if the price is higher. As long as the quantity is enough, we can give you three to five times the market price!"

After hearing Mei Wenhua's words, Chief Chen was excited.

Several people who were eating with Mei Wenhua and the others also stood up, "Can we get pork? We haven't had pork for a long time!"

"As for pork, it shouldn't be a problem to get 5 tons." Mei Wenhua thought for a while and said.

Now, if you sign in every day, you can get thousands of kilograms of pork. If you give him a few days, he can get not only 5 tons, but also 10 tons.

"Xiao Wenhua, as long as you can purchase [-] kilograms of pork for us, we will give you five times the price, but you don't have a ticket, is that okay?" Chief Chen patted the table excitedly.

"Okay, I will try my best to help you lower the price. It will cost 3 times to see if it can be delivered to Xining, or 4 times the price at most." Mei Wenhua nodded.
