Happy Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 584

"Director Lin, the dishes are ready!"

"Hey, okay, you can bring me a few more plates!"

"Got it!"

Seeing Xie Fuqin's positive face, Lu Jiabao, who helped serve the dishes together last time, couldn't bear it anymore. He gritted his teeth secretly, and walked up to Lin Tieniu quickly, his face full of flattery. With a smile, he said, "Director Lin, do you think I can help you?"

"Well, then help me get a pot of boiling water!"

Lin Tieniu glanced at Lu Jiabao, a shrewd young man, felt a little joy in his heart, then nodded his head and said.

Since someone actively wants to come over, he will not refuse.

In this way, on the one hand, it can lighten one's work, and on the other hand, it can also disgust Sha Zhu.

Anyway, he doesn't like the leftovers left over from cooking. He only needs to cook them briefly to buy people's hearts, saving him from having to deal with them.

In addition, when the small hospitality cafeteria is cancelled, the employees here will definitely have to be transferred back to the cafeteria. Now being able to train one or two of these employees will also benefit his future management work.

Seeing Lu Jiabao as an apprentice imitating the example, Sha Zhu felt even more annoyed in his heart, and a gleam of anger appeared in his eyes.

Damn it, do you really think I don't exist?

See how I deal with you then!

Regarding Shazhu's anger, Xie Fuqin and Lu Jiabao were a little worried after watching it, but they were not too worried.

After all, Sha Zhu has no right to fire them at all, the most he can do is make things harder at work and share less leftovers.

If Sha Zhu goes too far, they won't sit still and wait for death. If they are in a hurry, at worst, they will expose the matter of Sha Zhu stealing ingredients to see who is afraid of whom!

Moreover, if he could really rely on Lin Tieniu, he would make a lot of money.

They heard that Lin Tieniu took a few apprentices in the cafeteria as registered apprentices to train them carefully, not only taught cooking skills, but also gave them a lot of rights. Didn't they see Liu Lan's little hoof started to take care of things!
If they could have Lin Tieniu backing them up, they wouldn't be afraid of Sha Zhu, a silly man!

Seeing the performance of Xie Fuqin and Lu Jiabao, the other employees of the small canteen secretly felt a little envious.

However, compared to the two apprentices Xie Fuqin and Lu Jiabao, the others basically followed Shazhu all the time, and they didn't dare to show their friendship to Lin Tieniu in front of Shazhu.

Otherwise, they would have stepped forward to help a long time ago. How could it be Xie Fuqin and Lu Jiabao, the two elementary school apprentices, who would be in their turn.

While Lin Tieniu and Sha Zhu were busy cooking the reception banquet, Yang Xiangnan and Li Weihong took their guests to the small reception hall one after another, and they staggered the time tacitly so as not to meet the guests.

Among them, Yang Xiangnan, as the factory director, naturally occupied the priority position.

He led the guests into the No. [-] private room of the small reception canteen, and Li Weihong led the guests into the back door of the small reception canteen.

As soon as he sat down, Yang Xiangnan asked his confidant, Hu Huimin, director of the office of the factory committee, to go to the back kitchen to inform Sha Zhu that the food was ready, and he did not forget to briefly brag about Sha Zhu's cooking skills to the guests.

"Director Ma, I remember that your hometown should be from Sichuan! It happens that the chef in our small canteen is the best at Sichuan cuisine. You should try it later and see if it suits your taste?"

"Oh! So, I really came here today at the right time! Ever since I came here to work a few years ago, I haven't eaten authentic Sichuan cuisine for a long time!"

Ma Jianguang raised his eyebrows when he heard this, then nodded with some expectation and said.

"Don't worry! You won't be disappointed!"

Yang Xiangnan smiled and said confidently.

Although Shazhu's culinary skills are not as high as Wan Yuhua's, his skills in cooking Sichuan cuisine are definitely passed down by Wan Yuhua.

Not to mention that when he told Sha Zhu to hold a reception today, he had given thousands of instructions to make Sha Zhu give up [-]% of his ability.

Therefore, he believed that this reception would definitely satisfy Ma Jianguang.

In this way, he can also use this to get closer to Ma Jianguang, the director of the Industrial Bureau.

Although the rolling mill is under the jurisdiction of the Metallurgical Bureau, the Industrial Bureau and the Metallurgical Bureau are brothers. Many things can be involved, and even the turnover of personnel is very frequent.

In order to invite Ma Jianguang, the director of the Industrial Bureau, to come here to have a meal and treat Xiaozao, he spent a lot of effort.

If he can establish a certain personal relationship with Ma Jianguang, he can also use Ma Jianguang to be transferred to the Industrial Bureau in the future to further his career.

Just as Yang Xiangnan was talking to Ma Jianguang, Hu Huimin also hurried into the back kitchen.

As soon as he walked in, a very tempting fresh fragrance came over his face, which instantly made him take a deep breath involuntarily, and an intoxicated expression appeared on his face.

After a while, he came back to his senses, fixed his eyes on the back kitchen, and saw Silly Zhu working hard in front of the stove.

So, he hurried forward, and then shouted impatiently: "Silly Zhu, Director Yang and the guests have already arrived, hurry up and get the food served, don't make the guests wait!"

"Come on! Director Hu, I'll arrange for someone to serve the dishes!"

Hearing this, Sha Zhu turned his head and glanced at Hu Huimin, then hurriedly nodded and agreed.

"Ok!"

Hu Huimin nodded with satisfaction, then turned back to the private room full of expectations.

I really didn't expect it!

This silly boy Shazhu has such a good cooking skill, the smell makes people salivate just by smelling it, today is a lucky day!

Perhaps it was because the scent in the air was too enticing, or because Hu Huimin hadn't had much contact with Lin Tieniu, he completely ignored the figure standing in front of the stove on the other side, and the one using a small knife on the stove. The fire is slowly simmering the clay pot.

Therefore, he didn't know the source of this fragrance, and it was not a dish cooked by Sha Zhu at all.

At this time, Sha Zhu was completely unaware that Hu Huimin had misunderstood. After Hu Huimin turned and walked out, he immediately raised his chin and shouted loudly, "Come here, serve!"

"Hey, here we come!"

Hearing Sha Zhu's order, Liang Chungui, the number one subordinate, hurriedly agreed, then hurried forward, took a plate of still warm fish-flavored shredded pork, and sent it to the No. [-] private room.

In this regard, Lin Tieniu seemed to have not seen it, and focused all his attention on the dishes he was cooking.

No matter what skill it is, if you want to reach a high level, you must have a devout and dedicated heart, otherwise, you will only end up in a third-rate level.

After going through the learning process of various master-level skills before, this spirit and habit have already penetrated into Lin Tieniu's bones, and he can naturally devote himself to it without deliberately controlling it.

Therefore, in the eyes of others, there will be a feeling of smooth flow and calmness.

Xie Fuqin and Lu Jiabao stood aside, quietly watching Lin Tieniu's various actions, and couldn't help but feel a little bit emotional that it was not unreasonable for Lin Tieniu to be a deputy department-level leading cadre at a young age.

At the same time, they also hope that they can be accepted as registered apprentices by Lin Tieniu.

On the other side, Hu Huimin returned to the private room, immediately gave Yang Xiangnan a reassuring look, and then stepped forward to act as a waiter.

After a while, the door of the private room was pushed open again, and Liang Chungui walked in with a plate full of greasy fish-flavored shredded pork, and at the same time brought a burst of aroma of vegetables.

When Yang Xiangnan smelled the fragrance, he couldn't help showing a satisfied smile on his face, thinking that Shazhu could still be reliable at critical moments, the fragrance seemed to be more fragrant than before.

When Ma Jianguang saw the steaming fish-flavored shredded pork on the plate, and smelled the familiar scent, the smile on his face suddenly became more real.

Afterwards, he looked at Yang Xiangnan with some satisfaction, and felt that Yang Xiangnan really had a heart.

However, neither of them noticed that there was something wrong with Hu Huimin's expression, as if he was a little disappointed.

"Leaders, please use it slowly!"

Liang Chungui quickly put the shredded fish-flavored pork on the table, and then said with a flattering smile, as if he was a waiter who specializes in serving people.

After finishing speaking, he saw that Yang Xiangnan and Ma Jianguang didn't respond to him, so he turned around and left angrily.

Seeing that Liang Chungui was about to leave, Hu Huimin frowned suddenly, then hurried forward to hold Liang Chungui, and asked in a low voice, "Are you sure Shazhu made this fish-flavored shredded pork?"

"That's right! He made it. What's the matter? Director Hu, is there something wrong with this dish?"

Liang Chungui was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, then nodded and replied.

"It's okay, I'm just asking. When you go back, the kitchen tells Sha Zhu to hurry up and serve all the other dishes!"

Hu Huimin waved his hand, and said with some puzzlement.

This is really strange!

He obviously smelled a very tempting fragrance in the back kitchen just now, why can't he smell it?
Could it be that the dish has not been served yet?
"Okay, I'll go back and tell him now."

Liang Chungui hurriedly nodded in agreement when he heard the words, then quickly turned around and left.

"Come, come, Chief Ma, let's taste it while it's hot!"

Yang Xiangnan didn't pay attention to Hu Huimin's actions, and directly smiled and stretched out his hand to greet Ma Jianguang to move his chopsticks.

"Ok!"

Ma Jianguang nodded with a smile on his face, and then he was not polite. He reached out and picked up a chopstick with a little shredded fish-flavored pork, put it in his mouth and tasted it carefully.

Then, under Yang Xiangnan's expectant eyes, he spit out two words from his mouth.

"Not bad!"

"Hey, you can eat as much as you like. When we come here, no matter what you eat, you will be satisfied!"

Yang Xiangnan was overjoyed, and then said enthusiastically.

"Old Yang, you really have a heart!"

Ma Jianguang swallowed the food in his mouth and said with a smile.

Although the taste of the fish-flavored shredded pork did not make him feel very delicious, the taste was generally quite authentic, so he accepted this favor.

"Haha! As long as you eat to your satisfaction!"

When Yang Xiangnan heard that Ma Jianguang had changed his address, he was immediately delighted.

You know, although he is the director of the rolling mill, he is also a high-ranking deputy director, only half a grade behind Ma Jianguang, the main hall, but in terms of gold content, there is no way to compare with Ma Jianguang.

Among them, the most important reason is that he, the factory director, belongs to the establishment of the enterprise. If he is transferred to the zf system, in principle, he will be downgraded to a level of appointment, so he will be one and a half levels lower than Ma Jianguang's main office, which is equivalent to the deputy director level.

That's why he lowered his posture in front of Ma Jianguang.

At this time, Hu Huimin also let go of the doubts in his heart, stepped forward to pour wine for Yang Xiangnan and Ma Jianguang, and at the same time held a conversation at the side, honestly playing the role of a waiter.

However, as the dishes were served one after another, the doubts in his heart couldn't stop popping up, until Liang Chungui said that the dishes were all ready, he almost couldn't help but ran to the back kitchen to ask what happened.

What happened?
I obviously smell the fragrance, right?
Why is there no dish?

Could it be that Sha Zhu secretly withheld the ingredients to cook for himself?

This... this is simply too much!
Thinking of this possibility, Hu Huimin was full of annoyance, and then secretly decided that after entertaining the guests, he must settle the score with Shazhu.

At the same time, under the urging of Qu Guangsheng, the chief of the security department, Lin Tieniu also asked Xie Fuqin and Lu Jiabao to bring up the freshly prepared food, and then, as expected, the room was full of admiration.

Moreover, apart from admiration, no one is in the mood to talk about other things. At this time, nothing is as important as cooking.

While enjoying the delicious food, Li Weihong looked at the scene of gobbling wolf in front of him, feeling complacent but also troubled.

One by one knows how to eat, so how can he talk to customers about business?

No!

Can't be too cheap for these guys!
In the future, the business must be negotiated before the meal is opened. If you don't agree, then you won't give delicious food.

Thinking of this idea, his eyes lit up immediately, and then he showed a smug smile.

While Li Weihong and the others were eating happily, Ma Jianguang suddenly felt an urgency to urinate in the No. [-] private room, and then hurriedly put down his chopsticks and got up to go to the toilet.

As soon as he walked out of the private room, he happened to meet Xie Fuqin who was serving the dishes, and he smelled a very tempting aroma, which made his full stomach growl again.

So, he couldn't help reaching out to stop Xie Fuqin, and asked curiously: "Comrade, what kind of food are you carrying here?"

"Oh! This dish is called braised chicken!"

Xie Fuqin glanced at the middle-aged man in front of him, then replied with a smile.

"Well, can I take a look?"

Ma Jianguang nodded when he heard the name of the dish, and then couldn't help asking.

After speaking, he looked a little embarrassed, as if he knew that his request was too embarrassing.

"What's wrong with this, hey, just watch!"

Xie Fuqin was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and then agreed very readily.

As she spoke, she pushed the tray directly onto her belly, and then freed up one hand to open the lid of the clay pot.

In an instant, a burst of white steam rose, accompanied by a strong and delicious smell, which made people fascinated.
