Chapter 80 - 76: A Table Full of Dishes, A Warrior Beauty Carries on Her Back

"Come, come, come, quickly come in, just two more dishes to go."

Later in the afternoon, all the members of 3201 came over.

Yang Mei opened the door warmly, welcoming them with the demeanor of a hostess.

Liang Yuan also walked over, smiling, "Everyone’s here, huh?"

"Old Ma, slow down."

Old Ma hurriedly responded with a smile, "No worries, no worries, it’s just a few steps."

Cai Yao also raised the grape wine in her hand, saying, "Brother Yuan, look what I brought."

Liang Yuan couldn’t help but laugh, "Grape wine, huh, where did you get it?"

Cai Zhi laughed, "Found it in Liu Erlong’s room, there are two more bottles."

Liang Yuan laughed, "Save it, let’s bring it out for a celebration in the future."

Granny Li also brought some snacks like duck necks, saying, "We looked around, and this is all we could bring as cold dishes."

"I found a pack of peanuts earlier, it can go with the wine." Ding Yan took out a pack of peanuts.

Liang Yuan took it, laughing, "Haha, still the peanuts of a wine lover."

Zhao Kai looked somewhat embarrassed, saying, "Brother Liang, I couldn’t find any food to go with the wine, just some snacks."

He took out two packs of snacks from his pocket, they were crispy cones and shrimp chips.

Liang Yuan laughed heartily, "I told you guys to just come for the meal, you didn’t have to bring anything, come on in."

Liang Yuan ushered them inside to take their seats.

As they stepped in, they saw five or six dishes arranged on the table.

At the center was a plate of braised meat, the fatty pork was stewed to a glistening perfection, just looking at it made one very hungry.

"Wow, braised meat!"

Cai Yao was the first to shout, her eyes wide open, drool almost dripping.

They genuinely couldn’t remember the last time they had braised meat.

"Wow, there’s steak too?"

Ding Yan exclaimed upon seeing a grilled steak, also greatly surprised.

Ever since the great flood, power had been out in all households.

Meat supplies couldn’t be preserved, having long since spoiled.

Now, whenever they could eat meat, it was mostly fish from the water.

Pork and beef, they hadn’t tasted these for half a year.

At this moment, not just Cai Yao, even Ding Yan couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.

Besides these two dishes, a bright green dish instantly attracted their attention.

Stir-fried green peppers with dried tofu!

Before the flood, this was the most ordinary dish.

But after the flood, who could still eat vegetables?

If they couldn’t get pork, they could still fish mutant fish from the flood.

But vegetables, that was really out of the question.

No matter how hard they thought, they couldn’t fathom how Liang Yuan could have veggies here.

The remaining two dishes were relatively ordinary.

One was stir-fried corn with ham, both meat and vegetables.

The other was yellow braised chicken with potatoes, which also had some veggies.

Just these few dishes left the 3201 members stunned.

"Xiaoliang, how... how do you still have pork? And chicken legs?"

"Wow, why are there green peppers?"

"This... Brother Liang, do you eat like this every day?"

They couldn’t help but ask in succession.

Liang Yuan smiled and shook his head, "No way, not every day. I have a refrigerator, I can freeze some meat and vegetables."

"A refrigerator? Your place has electricity?"

Even Granny Li was extremely shocked.

But Ding Yan was relatively calm, last time she came to Liang Yuan’s home to use a welding machine for making crossbow arrows, Liang Yuan had used an outdoor battery and mentioned a generator.

She had been shocked back then, and now seeing others’ surprised faces, couldn’t help but chuckle.

Granny Li, at her age, had lost her composure, let alone the others.

Old Ma and Cai Zhi had visited 3201 before, but they were discreet people, wouldn’t wander around.

Especially the kitchen where food might be stored, they deliberately stayed away.

So they didn’t know Liang Yuan had a generator.

Yang Mei wouldn’t randomly talk about it either, she’s a smart woman with a tight-lipped demeanor.

Liang Yuan smiled, "I have a generator, petrol-powered."

As he spoke, he led them to have a look.

Everyone was once again stunned, then their faces lit up with joy.

"A generator, he actually has a generator."

"Xiaoliang, this generator of yours is incredibly useful."

Granny Li couldn’t help but say, "Oh dear, we had quite a bit of beef and lamb, all went bad due to power outage."

"If we had a generator, all those frozen goods wouldn’t have gone moldy and wasted."

Wu Qian couldn’t help but slap her thigh repeatedly.

Everyone was pleasantly surprised by the generator.

Cai Zhi hurriedly said, "Liang Yuan, I still have some supplies at home that can’t be stored long-term, can I put them here temporarily?"

Granny Li also said, "Xiaoliang, I have some fish at home, they can’t be kept long, can I bring them here to freeze?"

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "No problem, anything that’s hard to store, just bring it here."

Ding Yan couldn’t help but ask, "Liang Yuan, do you have enough petrol? How’s the fuel consumption of the generator?"

She knew Liang Yuan was tight on petrol before, she even advised him to mix high-purity liquor to make Molotov cocktails, instead of using petrol directly as a weapon.

Liang Yuan smiled, understanding her concern, "No worries, I have spare petrol, enough for now."

"Oh, when we search for supplies, try to bring back any batteries if you find them."

"With a generator, we can charge the batteries."

Zhao Kai hurriedly asked, "Brother Liang, can we use the e-bike batteries? I have some at home."

Liang Yuan nodded immediately, "Of course, e-bike batteries have a large capacity, very useful."

Old Ma asked curiously, "Xiaoliang, what do you need e-bike batteries for?"
