Chapter 264: American-Style BBQ

One reason that this cabin was better than regular new houses was that the furniture and building materials had all been cleansed of any chemical odors from the construction.

Thus, after the cabin was set up, with some easy tidying, they could start staying in it.

Stephen had been right: it had taken about seven hours to build the prefab home. The materials came in the morning, and by evening, it had turned into a wonderful cabin.

By setting up a new cabin, according to social rules, they had to organize a party to celebrate.

The Chinese did pretty much the same as well. Back at home, Li Du’s hometown called it a ”housewarming.”

However, it was not like they had bought a big house. All they did was set up a small cabin. It didn’t make sense to throw a big party, so they just called over some of the people they were close to.

Hans called over Hannah and Stephen. Li Du called Sophie and Rose. In Flagstaff, these two women were the people he had the best relationships with.

Hans expressed his jealousy: ”You actually called two beauties over? Buddy, I hate to admit it, but I’ve underestimated you. I’ve always thought of you as an honest man.”

”What the hell are you talking about? I’m an honest man.”

”You? An honest man?” Hans said with a mocking smile. ”Go to hell—I bet you’ve been thinking of ways to have a threesome with Sophie and Rose.”

”You can say that to me privately,” Li Du pointed at him and said, ”but once they come, you better shut up. Or else I’ll make a bet as well—that someone will blow your brains out with her gun.”

Recalling the violent Rose, Hans stopped joking.

Rose and Sofie had relatively late shifts, so they prepared for the party while waiting for them.

They had just gotten the distilling boiler two days ago, and alcohol was a necessity for a party. Hans brought Godzilla with him to try to make some alcohol.

”Are you guys really trying to make your own alcohol?” Li Du asked. ”D*mn, I don’t want to die from moonshine.”

Moonshine was very strong, and could easily cause alcohol poisoning. Methanol, which was found in a lot of moonshine, was a toxic compound. The lowest dose that a person could take safely was around 3.5 ounces—any more than that could be fatal!

Hans patted his chest and said, ”Relax, brother. I’m a seasoned maker. In the past, my grandfather had a small farm. The alcohol that we drank was all made by ourselves.”

Hannah nodded and said, ”Li, it’s true.”

Godzilla added, ”I know how, too.”

Hannah’s words had lightened the load in Li Du’s heart. With the trustworthy Godzilla’s knowledge as well, he had nothing much to worry about.

The distilling boiler had some rust on it, so it had to be cleaned up before it could be used. There was a water well close by for the Amish homes in the area. Thus, they could draw water from there.

Hans used some steel wool to clean out the boiler. With the rust and dirt cleaned off, the boiler gradually revealed its true appearance. The canister had a red glow, while the columns had a dim, silver glow.

After seeing it, Li Du said, ”It probably has quite a history behind it, brother. Be careful—don’t damage it.”

”Yeah, it’s definitely been around for a long time,” Hannah said, nodding. ”Look at the steel columns—even after the dirt has been cleaned off, they still have a dull, white color. This shows its age.”

Hans examined the columns, and his expression slowly turned strange.
