Chapter 403 402. Celebrating Your Birthday (Monthly Pass 102+)
After a dinner, Mrs. Martin and Sophie cleaned up the tableware, while the chubby Mr. Martin laughed and said, "Li, is the meal okay?"
Li Du wiped his mouth and said, "It's very good, especially the desserts. I can't help but not eat them. Mrs. Martin has great baking skills."
The Martins laughed, and Sophie said, "Are you still laughing? Seriously, if we hadn't bought tuna, we would have made a fool of ourselves tonight."
Except for the tuna, the rest of the dishes are simple.
Mr. Martin said, "What a shame? We're doing pretty well, aren't we?"
Sophie curled her lips in dissatisfaction and said, "Your cooking skills are terrible, Li, next time you come, tell me in advance, and I will come here earlier to prepare the meals myself."
Mr. Martin said exaggeratedly: "My God, you actually dislike your parents' cooking skills? Didn't we raise you with this cooking skill? Look, how well we raised you."
Sophie made a pretty grimace, and said, "Since I was able to reach the pot at the age of twelve, I have cooked the meals, and I have raised myself."
Li Du had noticed earlier that Sophie was better at cooking than her parents.
Therefore, he praised Mrs. Martin's baking ability earlier, instead of praising the cooking skills of the couple against his will, otherwise it would make people think he was a bit hypocritical.
Of course, Mrs. Martin's baking ability is very strong, and there are many dessert styles, such as apple pie, French muffins, fruit tart biscuits, cream tea, panna cotta, and various small biscuits, which are delicious in quantity.
The whole family bickered warmly, Li Du watched with a smile on the side, stayed for a while, and then left.
Sophie stayed here to sleep, and she could rest in the next two days, so she planned to stay with her parents.
Li Du also brought back some pork for Rose. Seeing him come back, Rose glanced at him lightly and said, "You still know when you come back?"
Ah Miao and Gan Crispy Noodles squatted at attention immediately, the tone of these words was wrong.
Rose is different from Sophie, she is a woman, and she is also a neurotic woman.
Her normal tone was yelling, and if she was yelling, the furkids weren't afraid.
But if she speaks in a low voice, or even speaks loudly, it means that she is going to lose her temper.
But now she not only has a good voice, but also shows a smiling expression, which is a bit scary.
It is true that Li Du hasn't come back for a few days. He has been quite busy recently, and has been drifting outside since he went to Holbrook.
Still, "What does it matter to you where I live?" he wondered.
Rose gently stroked her slender legs, which was very charming: "It doesn't matter, I am your landlord, and I have to be responsible for your safety."
Ah Miao and He simply looked at each other, and they all went under the sofa together: This is the time to copy guns, this is the rhythm of copying guns!
They have hunted with Li Du, and they know how scary guns are.
Li Du reacted faster, he immediately picked up the bag in his hand and said, "Thank you for your concern, look, I brought you a lot of delicious food."
Rose put her hand on her lap, and asked expectantly, "What's delicious?"
"Black pork." Li Du said.
Rose snorted, "Pork? My mother doesn't like pork!"
Li Du said: "This is black pork..."
Rose snorted, "White pork and black pork are both pork, and I don't like pork."
Li Du was helpless: "Are you stupid? Don't you know the Berkeley black pig? It costs fifty dollars a catty!"
"So expensive?" Rose felt guilty, "I really haven't eaten it, is it delicious?"
Li Du said: "It used to be eaten by nobles!"
Rose immediately became cheerful: "Hurry up and cook, we will eat pork tonight."
Li Du was shocked and said, "My God, you haven't had dinner yet? How late is this?"
Rose lazily said: "I ate it, but I can still eat some more, besides, I didn't eat supper."
Li Du: "You are so fat!"
In the last two days of early September, Hans got news of another auction for a warehouse company in Prescott, home of the oldest rodeo in the world.
They've been here before, and they've been to the Whiskey Row for drinks.
Come again this time, they went to Whiskey Avenue again, with Godzilla and Dao.
There are many bars on both sides of the avenue, and many cowboy farmers are shouting drunk in them, but as soon as Li Du and others arrive, the bars and pubs will quickly quiet down.
The reason why they have such power is not only the four of them, but also Turis, Ollie, Karl the Beard, and more than 20 treasure hunters followed them.
They got a good deal last time at Smith Warehouse Company, and this time they want to follow Li Du to take advantage of it.
Li Du doesn't mind, he can take everyone to work together, and let everyone have a drink of soup, anyway, he is not interested in small value warehouses, and now he is starting to develop contacts and manage fame and fortune.
However, there are not many valuable things in this auction, and most of the seven warehouses are domestic garbage. The group of people made a trip for nothing, and even if they made money, they only made a profit of a few hundred yuan.
In the early days of mid-September, the smell of autumn became more and more intense, and an autumn rain fell continuously, and the temperature in Flagstaff City began to drop.
However, Phoenix is still so hot, Li Du doubts that the city never cools down throughout the year.
Hans' birthday was September twelfth, so when they got back from Prescott, they began to prepare for it.
Hannah wanted to arrange her birthday in her house, but Hans didn't want to celebrate his birthday with his relatives, so he proposed to spend it in a camp. The reason was that the camp was big enough to accommodate enough people.
For her brother's birthday, Hannah was very active. She specially asked for two days off and came one day in advance to arrange the birthday venue.
Li Du said enviously: "Boss Fu, you have a good sister."
Hans said angrily: "She should be busy with me. I haven't celebrated my birthday for ten years. She is the only one who celebrates it. I was the only one who was busy before."
Turis, who came to the camp, said: "Boss Fu, I wish you a happy birthday, but I may not be able to come to your party tomorrow. There is an auction in Delt tomorrow, and I want to go and see it."
Hans said: "Dert? What good things can there be in that poor place? But it's good to go and have a look, hard work can make you rich."
Not only Turis went, but Oli and others also went, so there were very few people coming to the party.
Delt is a small town, close to 100 kilometers away from the urban area of Flagstaff City. There are mostly farms and pastures there, and there are not many warehouses usually used for auctions.
"It is said that there are some good things in the warehouse this time, and we want to try our luck." Turis laughed.
Li Du asked casually, "What good things do you have?"
Turis said: "It's not very clear. It may be agricultural machinery, or things like water reins and generators for pastures. The information is not very clear."
Hans was tempted and asked, "Shall we go and see?"
Li Du shook his head: "No, we celebrate your birthday."
