Although he looked excited, he didn't understand where He Hongyang got these sheep from.

Why was there no movement at the courtyard house before? Why didn't the factory hear a word about it before?

Was she deliberately hiding it from him?

He is, after all, a level five blacksmith.

He was different from those ordinary workers.

He needs to know about certain key decisions made at the factory.

Pulling Jia Dongxu along, she asked, "Did you hear any noise in the courtyard? Did you hear the sound of sheep bleating from their house?"

"Where did you get these sheep? How could an ordinary person get so many sheep all at once? Could you have been hiding them at home all this time?"

Jia Dongxu had no time to care about any of that.

He didn't care at all where the sheep came from.

All he cares about now is whether he can fill his stomach later.

If he could fill his own stomach and bring home a lunchbox of mutton soup, he would be content.

"Why think about those things? As long as we have mutton soup to drink, that's all that matters."

"You blockhead! You live in the same courtyard as him, yet you can't observe him properly. It seems you've wasted all those years working in the factory."

Jia Dongxu was displeased when he heard him say that about himself.

"You're just being envious and jealous. You don't know how capable Brother He is. Just because you can't get supplies doesn't mean he can't."

He glanced at Liu Guangqi standing beside him and said, "Don't you think that makes sense?"

Although Liu Haizhong is his father, Liu Guangqi also stands on He Hongyang's side.

They've already brought in sheep, and you're still making wild guesses. Jia Dongxu is right, it's just envy and jealousy. If you're so capable, you won't have to drink their mutton soup later.

But although that's what he thought in his heart, he didn't dare to say it out loud.

"Don't talk, just clap your hands."

Liu Qiang led his men to He Hongyang.

When I saw those sheep, I felt like I was dreaming, and I touched their heads one by one.

His teeth were all showing when he smiled: "Director Li, Dr. He, I've come to pick you up on behalf of the security department."

"Please rest assured, the security department will definitely complete the mission!"

He then ordered someone to fetch the sheep.

But they didn't have any ropes around their necks.

If I chase after them, I'm afraid I'll hurt them.

They simply picked up one of the pups and happily carried them to the factory gate.

Seeing his action, Li Huaide nodded repeatedly with delight.

"Very good. We should learn to cherish and protect what we have."

Upon hearing his praise, Liu Qiang excitedly grasped He Hongyang's hand.

"It's all thanks to Dr. He; we've also benefited from his efforts."

"I thought today would be a wasted day, but I never expected that one sheep would turn into ten sheep. I can hardly believe it."

"When we get to the factory gate, the people inside will probably give us a very warm welcome."

He Hongyang took the opportunity to whisper in his ear, "I've already asked my mother-in-law to send half a sheep to your family."

Liu Qiang thought he had misheard.

Stunned, he asked, "What did you say?"

I realized that my voice was too loud.

She immediately covered her mouth.

He asked, trembling, "Are you telling the truth?"

166. A great opportunity to showcase your talents

"When have I ever lied to you? The things are in your house right now."

How could he not believe He Hongyang?

He doesn't believe in himself.

I am so unworthy of such a great favor from him.

Liu Qiang was on the verge of tears.

He Hongyang was still thinking about himself.

Although he was the head of the security department, he didn't usually make any significant contributions to He Hongyang.

It wasn't that he didn't want to help, but that he simply couldn't.

Only when his younger brother brings lunch home can he have as much freedom as he can afford.

others.

He Hongyang was doing better than him at the factory, and he was anxious, not knowing how to help.

I almost hugged him.

"Dr. He, I don't know what to say."

Liu Qiang looked at himself and realized that apart from this set of clothes, he had nothing else.

He now desperately wants to give something in return to He Hongyang.

He simply pulled out his pistol from his waist.

"If you don't mind, take this. I have some bullets at home, I'll bring them to you later."

What the hell!

He's so generous!

Guns are certainly a good thing, but his guns are registered and cannot be given away casually.

He patted him on the shoulder: "We're friends, no need to be so polite!"

It is said that a drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring of gratitude, and what he is receiving now is a spring of gratitude.

This half sheep brought good fortune to their whole family.

He vowed that he would repay He Hongyang properly in the future.

Amidst cheers from everyone, they arrived at the factory gate.

When everyone saw the sheep, they were all so excited that they wanted to go up and touch them.

Li Huaide gestured for everyone to stop clapping.

But people are just too enthusiastic, they just can't stop.

Finally, he simply stood on the stool.

He kept waving to everyone.

"Everyone, please stop and listen to me."

But still no one stopped.

Everyone surrounded them and the sheep.

Some people's hands were almost reaching the sheep.

Liu Qiang was anxious to maintain order.

Just then, He Hongyang shouted, "Everyone, please be quiet! Director Li has something to say!"

When people hear his voice, it's like receiving a command.

Everything stopped.

Li Huaide raised his arm and said, "Everyone can see that the sheep are right in front of us. They were all brought by Dr. He. Let's express our gratitude to him."

"Wow—"

A round of enthusiastic applause followed.

"Dr. He has already told me how to prepare these sheep. Now, everyone in the cafeteria, listen up."

The people in the cafeteria were already impatient.

Everyone was listening intently.

"Cut all the mutton off to make mutton buns, mutton chops, mutton bones, and mutton offal to make mutton soup."

"We'll have mutton buns and mutton soup for lunch today."

"All ten sheep will be put into the pot. Everyone, get your stomachs ready. Today, we're going to let you eat your fill."

Another gasp came from the crowd!

They never expected that they would not only be able to drink mutton soup at noon today, but also eat mutton buns.

Those are mutton buns that are bursting with oil with every bite!

Not now.

Even when resources were plentiful, they wouldn't be willing to buy a mutton bun to eat.

I thought that being able to drink mutton soup today was the greatest happiness.

They never expected He Hongyang to give them such a big surprise!

"Dr. He is so thoughtful, his words are making my mouth water."

"I haven't eaten steamed buns in a long time. Let alone mutton buns, I haven't even eaten vegetable buns."

"Didn't you say before that flatbread goes best with mutton soup? I wonder how mutton buns taste with mutton soup?"

"Needless to say, he's definitely beaming with joy."

The cafeteria staff were in a bit of a dilemma.

With so many sheep, the meat must be cut off without any damage or waste.

No one in their cafeteria actually has this skill.

"Director Li, we don't have anyone who knows how to slaughter sheep. Should we find someone from outside?"

It's already past 12 o'clock.

If we find someone from outside, how long will it take to get a meal?

Besides, do you expect to hire someone to slaughter a sheep for free?

There are too many sheep for one person to handle.

Wouldn't that mean we'd have to feed those people again, and maybe even give them a few pounds of mutton when we leave?

Then they'll eat less!

Cui Dake felt that his chance to shine had come.

He raised his hand and said, "I've slaughtered pigs before, so I should be able to handle sheep too."

Slaughtering a pig is certainly different from slaughtering a sheep.

Besides, his own issues haven't been resolved yet, so how could we let him take action?

Liu Qiang immediately pressed him down: "Shut your mouth. When you slaughter a pig, you keep the skin, but when you slaughter a sheep, you remove the skin. The two are completely different."

"You haven't explained your question clearly yet, so don't just raise your hand randomly."

Li Huaide shouted at the crowd, "Is there anyone who knows how to butcher a sheep?"

He refused to believe that among the thousands of people in the factory, there wasn't a single person who knew how to butcher sheep.
