Relying on one's own hair

Qiao Ran climbed into the carriage, lowered the automatic conveyor ramp, and then lifted a box of vegetables onto it.

Dick rolled up his sleeves and said courteously, "Leave me alone!"

Qiao Ran wasn't polite to him, but she wasn't idle either, she still moved the dishes slowly.

His strength is limited, and a box of vegetables weighs fifty catties, which is not easy for him.Dick was a sentinel, so he had great strength. In the time Qiao Ran moved one box, he had already placed three boxes on the transmission board.

Soon the dishes were unloaded, and the two of them weighed and counted the varieties and quantities one by one, and then signed the delivery note, which will be settled together at the end of the month. Today's food delivery task is considered complete.

Qiao Ran raised her sleeves to wipe off the sweat, and a faint blush appeared on her pale cheeks.

Dick couldn't help but glanced twice, then gestured at his bulging biceps, and said, "Joe, your body is too weak, you lack training, you have to run around the nursing home every day like me Just a few laps."

Qiao Ran laughed at herself, "Forget it, I'm too tired."

It took nearly seven or eight kilometers to circle the sanatorium, and he would definitely die after running less than half of it.

After chatting a few words, Qiao Ran still drove away from the west gate of the nursing home, and walked up a country road where he came.

It is desolate, the land is dry and barren, and the overall color tone is deep and light ocher and gray. Only sporadic greenery can be seen occasionally, and the scenery is not worth seeing.

However, the morning breeze in late spring is very cool, and it is very comfortable to blow on the face.Qiao Ran lowered the car window halfway, took off his hat, scratched his messy hair, and hummed a song in a wild way.

It didn't take long to reach a fork in the road. The nursing home is located in a remote suburb. There are very few pedestrians and vehicles in this area, and there are no traffic lights at the intersection.Just as Qiao Ran was about to turn onto the main road, a convoy suddenly drove up from the other end of the road. He stepped on the brakes and waited by the side of the road.

There were five vehicles in the train, with two armored vehicles at the front and rear, guarding a black SUV in the middle. The license plate on it was different from that of ordinary vehicles. Qiao Ran knew it was a military vehicle at a glance.

When the black SUV passed by Qiao Ran's truck, something suddenly jumped on the dark window of the rear seat, a large white ball, stuck to the window glass.

Qiao Ran was taken aback, and felt inexplicable palpitations. Before he could see clearly, the motorcade roared past, and that direction was leading to the main entrance of the nursing home.

It seems that the characters in the SUV are not small, and they should be officers with higher ranks.

But it had nothing to do with Qiao Ran. He put on his hat, restarted the truck, and turned onto the main road.

Xinxinmei planting base is not far from the nursing home, only [-] kilometers away, and it will arrive in a short while.

Qiao Ran went to the garage to return the car, went to his workstation to enter the delivery information into the company's system, and then went to the planting shed.

Although Qiao Ran was a vegetable delivery worker, he didn't just drive a car to deliver food, otherwise the workload would be too small and the boss would definitely not do it.In addition to delivering vegetables, he also needs to go to the greenhouse to inspect the garden every day to see the growth of vegetables, record the varieties of vegetables that can be picked, and then edit them into files and send them to Eden, the kitchen supervisor of the nursing home, to confirm that he will deliver them the next day. dishes.

These jobs are not difficult, as long as you are careful, Qiao Ran has been working for a year, and she is already very handy.

Xinxinmei has [-] acres of fully automatic temperature-controlled greenhouses, where hundreds of varieties of vegetables are planted in rectangular border fields, which are as neat and orderly as soldiers lined up. At first glance, they are both strict and fresh Lively, it fits Qiao Ran's sense of beauty.

Another advantage of working in this vegetable planting base is that you can eat all kinds of fresh green and pollution-free vegetables at a relatively cheap internal price, and you can not bring heavy samples for a month.Even the substandard dishes that are not of good quality to send to nursing homes are better than those sold in ordinary supermarkets outside.This is very rare in the era of the universe when the price of natural ingredients remains high, and most ordinary people can only rely on tedious artificially synthesized nutrients.

Qiao Ran usually eats her own nutritional supplements at the company at noon, and when she gets off work, she usually buys a la carte and cooks for dinner by herself.Although it takes time and trouble for one person to start a fire, the cost is similar to that of taking nutritional supplements, but the taste is much stronger, so even if it is troublesome, he often chooses to do it himself.

Qiao Ran's working day starts at six o'clock in the morning and ends at four o'clock in the afternoon, which is different from most office workers.At four o'clock, when he packed up his things and was about to leave, the communicator on the workstation rang.The caller was Eden, the kitchen supervisor of the nursing home, and Qiao Ran answered the call immediately.

Eden, in his sixties, was a war cook when he was young, and retreated to a nursing home to continue his residual heat when he was old.After Qiao Ran sent Eden the next day's menu in the afternoon, he never received a reply. Because this kind of situation sometimes happened in the past, the supervisor would be too busy to take care of him, so Qiao Ran did not meet with the other party again. Contact, plan to deliver according to today's menu.

Qiao Ran asked: "Mr. Eden, hello, do you need to change the varieties on the menu?"

Eden's tone was extremely serious: "Yes, onions, green peppers, eggplants, carrots, and broccoli are no longer required to be delivered in the last three days, and the servings of other dishes have increased accordingly."

"Okay." Although Qiao Ran was a little surprised that Eden used to send electronic messages to confirm, why did he call today to say that he went to so many varieties at once, but he didn't ask anything, just opened the electronic message immediately. The form is recorded.

Eden continued: "In addition, the dishes delivered tomorrow must be fresher and of the highest quality. There must be no wilted, rotten long insects, you know?"

Qiao Ran was slightly startled, "Is there something wrong with the food delivered today?"

Eden: "It's okay, but tomorrow's will be better. We have a distinguished guest today, who has a picky taste. If there is any problem with his eating, then our kitchen performance this year will be ruined, so Everything must be chosen the best, and there must be no mistakes!"

"Ok, I see."

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Ran inadvertently remembered the black SUV that he saw on the way back from the nursing home in the morning. It is estimated that the distinguished guest with picky taste that Eden mentioned was sitting in it.

But if this person doesn't like those dishes, he can not eat them himself, and he doesn't allow others to eat them. It's really overbearing.

Qiao Ran immediately sent an email to the department manager Buck, reporting the situation just now, and then went to the sales department to buy some green peppers, carrots, and broccoli—they were some of the dishes that were disliked by the distinguished guest in the nursing home. , Qiao Ran doesn't dislike it.

The price of meat ingredients has been high all over the planet, and Qiao Ran seldom eats it once a week.Fortunately, he has always preferred vegetarian food, so it doesn't matter if he eats vegetables every meal, unlike other colleagues who always complain.

After buying groceries, Qiao Ran left the company and returned to his residence on foot.

He rented a small apartment with one bedroom and one living room in a community near Xinxinmei. It doesn't matter if there is no public transportation, and he can walk there in 10 to [-] minutes.Because it was far away from the city center, the rent was not expensive, but the house was relatively old, but it was cleaned very well by Qiao Ran.

After arriving home, Qiao Ran cleaned up the house, and then went to the small balcony connected to the kitchen to water the plants.

The balcony is less than two square meters. On one side is a small washing machine, and on the other side stands a three-tier shelf with a few foam boxes on it. I planted some shallots, garlic and mint, all of which are leftovers from Qiao Ran’s eating. The roots are planted, and the soil is also a special planting medium bought from Xinmei.It is convenient and economical to pick a little side dish for seasoning when cooking.

Qiao Ran had never been in contact with agriculture before, but after entering Xinxinmei, she slowly learned a little planting technology, and then used it.

If the balcony was not too small, he would definitely have a whole vegetable garden out.

There was a pot of strawberries on the top shelf where the sunlight was the best. This was Qiao Ran's treasure.At the end of last year, Xinxinmei held a staff dinner. Among them was a plate of very high-end strawberries. The price of one in the supermarket was equivalent to a catty of pork.

Qiao Ran was lucky enough to get one at that time, and before eating it, she was more careful. She first picked out some tiny strawberry seeds from the skin of the fruit, wrapped them in paper towels, and took them home. After the spring, she planted the seeds by herself.

Due to the degradation of strawberry genes on the planet and the lack of sunlight on the balcony, only a small half of the dozens of seeds germinated.After that, no matter how carefully Qiao Ran took care of them, they all died one after another, and up to now only one seedling survived.However, this hard-won strawberry seedling is quite competitive, and it has already produced small white flowers.Qiao Ran was worried that there would be no insects to spread the pollen, so she used a soft-bristled brush to pollinate herself, and now she was waiting for the fruit to bear fruit.

Thinking of the sweet and sour taste of strawberries, Qiao Ran couldn't help swallowing, full of anticipation.

For dinner, Qiao Ran made a tiger skin green pepper and a stir-fried broccoli, and the sweet and crispy carrots were the after-meal fruit.

After eating, Qiao Ran nestled on the small sofa in the living room, turned on an old optical computer bought two months ago, tuned to the comprehensive channel of the TV station in City A, and watched an episode called "Just Love Fluffy". Animal science program.

This issue is about big cats, all of them are majestic and cute, Qiao Ran is so cute that he rolls on the sofa, wanting to stretch his neck and howl twice.

It was almost ten o'clock after Yun finished sucking the big cat, Qiao Ran washed up and fell asleep.

When he goes to work at six o'clock in the morning, he has to get up at 05:30, so he usually goes to bed earlier, and will not exceed 10:30 at the latest.

A person's day is like this, simple and dull.

The author has something to say: Did everyone chop off their hands yesterday?Now the second senior brother's value has doubled, and he is almost out of reach.

Qiao Ran's spiritual body is not a sheep, and he was too young to recognize it clearly. For more details, please read the following article~
