Chapter 1178

When the colleague said this, he thought he would see Chen Yuan's shocked face, but he didn't expect him to be light and breezy.

"Did you forget where Du Yu is now and what he is doing?"

The colleague was stunned. They didn't all come because of Du Yu's introduction, but everyone has channels to understand some news. Du Yu is different from them, and the path he takes is also different.

Now, it is said that he is on a mountain in the capital...

Cough.

He looked serious: "I understand."

Although he "understood," he continued to pass this "understanding" to others, so that when 23 people stood neatly on the bus the next day, their expressions were so solemn that the bus driver who had negotiated the price felt a bit drumming in his heart.

That, that is to say!

Actually, his acting skills are also okay. If there is really some secret mission, he should have told him the bottom line...

And your large and small bags and suitcases, are the things inside regular and safe? What kind of mission requires chartering a bus to bargain yourself...

He peeked at the rearview mirror from time to time, holding the steering wheel, pondering whether his price was a bit high...

Hiss!

Should the country reimburse this? He didn't ask for a high price... but if it's declassified later and on TV, or if there are invisible cameras, how can he be embarrassed to brag about the high price...

Just thinking about it, his eyes suddenly met a pair of exceptionally sharp eyes in the rearview mirror. The driver felt a shock in his heart and instantly lowered the price again.

And Zhu Xinyu, who took back his eyes, silently took out his phone: "Chen Yuan, is the driver you found reliable? Why do I feel his eyes are a bit timid? Like he's guilty?"

"If he's driving properly, what's he guilty about?"

Chen Yuan:...

Can he say he doesn't know how to bargain? Maybe the price wasn't bargained down, and the driver felt guilty looking at their posture now?

Just as this thought crossed his mind, he heard the driver say to them in a low voice:

"Cough... that... that... it's the New Year, since you're here... let me give you another 100 off."

A normal bus is 20 yuan per person, but because this bus was chartered at 6:30 in the morning just to arrive at the post before 8 o'clock, the price was negotiated to 600.

But now, another 100 off...

Chen Yuan was a bit happy in his heart, and at this moment nodded steadily: "Okay. Thank you."

The driver felt relieved, and the whole person became happy!

The car drove forward steadily, and although the driver's heart was eager to move, the steering wheel and gas pedal were still steady.

When the car reached the country road, he felt the atmosphere in the car wasn't too serious, and he relaxed at this moment.

"Look at this road, it's pretty good, right? It was just repaired last year, and the speed is very fast."

"Otherwise, on the old road before, it was bumpy and had many turns. We drivers didn't like to come this way; the road wasn't familiar, not to mention the bumps, we couldn't even pass other cars."

And everyone in the car thought—since they are related to that side, it's only right to repair the road.

So everyone responded reservedly, and this topic passed.

Driver:...

He believed more and more that everyone was not simple. Knowing he shouldn't ask, he still couldn't suppress his restless heart.

After a long while, he asked in a low voice:

"That... what are you guys doing? My driver friends said that Yunqiao Village seems to have had people come several times this year."

But isn't that just a poor mountain village? It's no different from other villages in the neighborhood. Why did it suddenly become popular?

Are there any scenic spots? Or did internet celebrities come to check in?

He asked enthusiastically, wanting to get the news for other drivers.

Now, facing relatives, everyone was much more calm, so Chen Yuan, who was closest, opened his mouth and said:

"Oh, nothing, they are recruiting security guards, we are here to apply."

The driver had nothing to say.

He thought, if there's a mission, there's a mission; if you shouldn't ask, you shouldn't ask!

Look at this question, they still have to find an excuse... What kind of security guard is like this?

Can a village recruit so many people? Could it be that something big really happened? Or some big shot is visiting incognito?

He silently noted this down, already impatient to share the news.

And at the Song family, Qiao Qiao had already stood on tiptoe and looked at the door several times.

While looking, he held the bowl and shoveled two mouthfuls of rice, then asked:

"Why haven't those cool brothers come yet?"

"Oh my, you've asked two or three times already." Wu Lan was a bit impatient: "Is the food in the kitchen ready? Don't let those cool brothers of yours go hungry when they come."

While saying this, she hummed twice: "You haven't been this diligent in looking forward to your mom."

Qiao Qiao doesn't look forward to Mom; after all, he's been in this state and has always been at home, what's there to look forward to?

Even if he did, it was looking forward to Wu Lan going out to work occasionally two years ago. But now there are too many happy memories, and those were long gone.

So he said seriously:

"It's all ready! You have to wait for people to come before you can cook it, that's the only way it's delicious!"

He cooked rice noodles and porridge this morning, steamed rice cakes and buns, made pancakes... everything is there!

Just see what the brothers like to eat.

Teacher Xin said, the first impression is very important, accounting for at least 40% of the overall image!

Now these brothers will cooperate with Dabao and the others to guard the land at home, which is especially, especially important!

If they don't like their home, it will be very troublesome.

Therefore, he, Song Qiao Qiao, the current head chef of the Song family—well, it's Master Qi Biao at noon, Master Qi Biao arrives at his post at noon today.

In short, limited-time chef Song Qiao Qiao must give everyone a particularly good first impression this morning!

It's just that the family has finished breakfast, why haven't they come yet?

Seeing him open his mouth to ask again, Song Tan quickly said:

"By the way, Qiao Qiao, these new security guards have to cooperate with Dawang and Dabao, so let them recognize people first."

"Otherwise, how about this, after you eat, ride to the mountain first, then to the river beach, call the dogs over, let everyone get familiar first, it will be easier for them to arrange cooperation later."

Actually, it's only the eighth day of the New Year, there's nothing in the fields, it's not that urgent at all.

But since Qiao Qiao can't stay idle, let's find something for him to do.

Otherwise, watching the child run back and forth in the yard...

Hmm... still quite cute.

Her casually made idea felt very reasonable to Qiao Qiao, so he nodded heavily, finished his meal in two or three bites, then rode on Daduo and whistled toward the back mountain first.

Wu Lan shouted from behind: "Zip up the zipper for me, don't catch a cold after eating!"

At the end of the road, a bus slowly slowed down and drove toward this side.

The driver followed the navigation, looked at the white-walled and gray-tiled villa hidden behind the bamboo forest in front, and said "Oh my" at this moment:

"It's quite beautiful!"

Then he sighed: "If there were two big red lanterns at the door, it would be so beautiful!"

Chen Yuan and the others also looked over curiously and slightly nervously.

The driver bypassed the bamboo forest, looked at the bright cement ground at the door, honked the horn, and stopped the car slowly.

And the bus door opened. As he got off the car and wanted to open the side storage door, he froze.

Because in front, on the flat ground, at the yard door, a large group of dogs had run out at some point!

The four black-backed ones in front were majestic, and the three big local dogs in the middle were also strong and shiny.

There were also four that were either wearing fancy eye masks or sitting there motionless.

Then there were two border collies, tilting their heads slightly, curiously sizing up the person in front of them.

The driver didn't recognize all the dog breeds, but their unified spirit was exactly the same...

This, this, this!

This is really not an ordinary family, right?

These dogs are not something an ordinary family can raise! The driver became more and more convinced.

Seeming to notice his harmless expression, the two border collies on the edge "woofed," and several dogs actually moved their bodies silently to get up.

And just at this moment, a thick, majestic, and loud sound suddenly came from the yard—

"Woof!"

This sound was really thick, completely different from the dog barking he imagined.

The driver looked up and was stunned.

Only to see a dog as big as a tiger walking out slowly in the yard.

It was so tall and strong, and the muscle undulations it brought when walking were also exceptionally shocking. Even the look it gave was quite deterrent, as if it could pounce over and bite his throat off at any time.

But look at those teeth... can it really bite it off?

The driver froze in place, unable to move.

At this moment, only one thought circulated in his brain: "Something big happened, something big happened, something big happened..."

What kind of big thing must it be to deserve this kind of specification?

And what kind of big shot is visiting incognito to deserve this kind of hidden and rare security force?

As an ordinary person, he had only seen "Wolf Warrior" and "Sniper"!

Anything deeper, he couldn't imagine at all.

At this moment, turning his head again, looking at the 20-something strong young men standing like pine trees beside him...

Hiss!

Qiao Qiao was making a new portion of chili oil in the kitchen. The sound of hot oil sizzling blocked the movement outside, and he only came out slowly at this moment.

And Lu Chuan had work to do every day. With his self-discipline, he would never be distracted by these things until he finished the established tasks.

Therefore, no one notified Qiao Qiao, so he couldn't see it at the first time, and he was very annoyed.

And at this moment, seeing him come out, more than a dozen dogs also rushed up happily, darting around in the yard, sniffing the newcomers from time to time, obviously very curious.

And the rest of the Song family also came to the door at this moment.

Everyone looked, and a row of young men like white poplars stood there, looking very pleasing to the eye!

Even if some young men didn't look so good, with that spirit, they looked more pleasing than others.

Chen Yuan moved his palm on the side of his leg, then took a deep breath, then stepped forward, and reached out to the girl who looked like the master of the house in the video—Song Tan:

"Hello, I am Chen Yuan, I am here to report."

Song Tan was stunned, smiled and shook hands with him. Then asked: "The journey was hard. You haven't had breakfast, right? Eat first. Pack up the things after eating."

After finishing, she looked at the driver by the bus. The other party obviously didn't intend to leave.

And leaving people aside obviously didn't conform to the rural way of hospitality.

Wu Lan then greeted enthusiastically:

"Master, come in and eat something?"

The driver's gossip heart was simply burning, burning so much that he didn't even speak polite words, just symbolically pushed:

"This isn't appropriate..."

After saying this, before Wu Lan could react, he immediately followed in two or three steps:

"Then I'll disturb you. I'll leave you my phone number later. If you need a car next time, I'll definitely give you the lowest price—you ask these brothers, was it the lowest price this morning?"

His phone received the transfer when he got off the car, which was indeed the discounted 500 yuan, so the driver spoke with confidence.

Thinking about it at this moment, he emphasized again: "Rest assured, I have a tight mouth! I can keep secrets!"

Wu Lan was a bit confused. Does chartering a car need to be kept secret?

But she still took her phone and noted the number: "Okay, I'll definitely look for you if I need to in the future—come, eat first. It's all in the kitchen, serve yourself whatever you want to eat."

This yard was really spacious, and a group of people walked in without feeling crowded at all.

Including the kitchen, it was also spacious and bright.

The stove and the preparation table in front were large and clean, and each portion of ingredients was carefully placed there, ready to be used.

There were also large basins of buns, rice cakes, and porridge.

On that side, the unique aroma of chili was also attracting people.

Qiao Qiao was fishing rice noodles out of the pot, and asked seriously: "Who wants to eat rice noodles? If you want sour soup, it's the row on the left."

This posture was obviously prepared with heart, and there was no perfunctory attitude just because it was breakfast.

Chen Yuan and the others felt warm inside, looked at each other, and didn't be polite, but instead smiled at Qiao Qiao and said sincerely:

"Thank you, you've worked hard."

Wow, such formal words! It seems no one has ever used this tone to say this to Qiao Qiao!

He also had his eyes lit up, and then learned Lu Chuan's usual look, tightened the corners of his mouth to avoid showing emotions and appearing immature.

Then he set up the pot and heated the oil again: "I'll fry an egg for each of you! With... hmm, three slices of fried pork belly."

Wu Lan walked by, knowing these were important staff members in the future, so she had to endure the heartache and pretend she didn't know what the price of eggs was today.

But thinking about it, none of these things are cheap... sigh, eat if you have to. These big young men are in such a situation, traveling thousands of miles just to be a security guard...

It's not easy.

Thinking so, she said to Qiao Qiao:

"Such a big young man, are three slices of meat enough? Cut two more."

While explaining to everyone:

"Don't give you too greasy food in the morning. Wait until noon, when Master Jiang from the mountain canteen comes, his craftsmanship is very good!"

"I specifically urged him, today we stewed big ribs and braised pork, eat as much as you want!"
