Siheyuan: During the great famine, we produced hundreds of millions of tons of grain

Every room is a home for the whole family!

It seems that the living conditions are better than those in No. 4 Courtyard, but in fact, they are only slightly better than those slums.

If it were in later times, even if they lived in those slums, I'm afraid no one would live in such a place.

It is in this era that everyone is eager to live in a building like this one, or even in those tube-shaped buildings!

Looking at this two-story building in front of me, there are forty or fifty rooms in front and back, which means there are forty or fifty families.

Wan Ping'an looked at the address on the note. It only wrote the address of this small building, and did not specify which room.

Just when Wan Ping'an was about to find someone to inquire about the situation.

I saw two figures talking and laughing, and they immediately walked towards Wan Ping'an's position.

The man looked to be in his forties, and the woman was in her thirties, and both looked pretty.

Although their clothes looked very simple, their spirit and energy were very good.

However, after taking a quick glance at the two of them, Wan Ping'an keenly discovered that there was a hint of sadness in the depths of their eyes.

"So lucky..."

When Wan Ping'an saw the appearance of these two people clearly, they looked somewhat similar to what he remembered.

At that moment, Wan Ping'an couldn't help but mutter something to himself.

As the two figures got closer, when they came close, Wan Pingan went up to them and said:

"You two are Master Nan Yi and Ms. Liang Ladi..."

That’s right, these two people are the Nan Yi and Liang Ladi couple that Wan Ping’an is looking for!

"I am Nan Yi, and this is my wife Liang Ladi..."

Facing Wan Ping'an's greeting, Nan Yi and the other man were stunned for a moment, then looked at each other secretly.

After confirming that he really didn't know Wan Ping'an, Nan Yi changed the subject and asked, "Comrade, who are you..."

Wan Ping'an didn't waste any words and said with a smile: "My name is Wan Ping'an, I have something to discuss with Master Nan Yi..."

"Do you have time now? Let's find a place to talk."

Hearing Wan Ping'an's words, Nan Yi hesitated slightly, then turned around and gestured to Liang Ladi.

After watching Liang Ladi leave, Nan Yi turned around and gestured to Wan Ping'an: "Comrade, please..."

The two found a place to sit down, and before Wan Ping'an could speak, Nan Yi couldn't help but speak first:

"I don't know what the comrade wants to talk to me about..."

Meeting Nan Yi's gaze, Wan Ping'an didn't say anything and directly stated his purpose.

"I won't beat around the bush with Master Nan Yi. I heard that your craftsmanship is good. I came here this time just to hire Master Nan Yi..."

"I need a chef. If Master Nan Yi is willing, I will give you this amount per month..."

As he spoke, Wan Ping'an directly made a "one" gesture to Nan Yi.

Before he could even open his mouth to speak, Wan Pingan spoke again:

"One month probation period. If Master Nan Yi's skills meet the requirements, his salary will be doubled after the probation period..."

When Nan Yi, who happened to be in need of a job, heard the conditions offered by Wan Ping'an, his eyes suddenly flashed with an idea.

Logically speaking, with Nan Yi's attainments in cooking, it would not be difficult for him to find a job.

But unfortunately, the targets that Nan Yi has contacted during this period either have salaries that cannot meet his requirements.

Or they were concerned about Nan Yi's identity and ultimately had to decline with a look of regret.

As soon as Wan Ping'an opened his mouth, he offered a salary of 100 yuan!

This is just the probation period. Once the one-month probation period is over, the salary can be doubled.

A monthly salary of two hundred is definitely considered a high salary in this awkward era!

Seeing the hesitation and intention in Nan Yi's eyes, Wan Ping'an immediately added fuel to the fire and said:

"Not only that, Master Nan Yi's salary will continue to adjust with the market conditions, and will be guaranteed to increase by at least 10% every year..."

After finishing his words, Wan Ping'an did not continue to say anything more, but simply fell silent.

At this time, his eyes fell on Nan Yi, and he was silent and hesitated for a moment.

Then, as if he had made a decision, he gritted his teeth and said, "I do..."

"Okay, okay, okay... I knew that Master Nan Yi would not let people down..."

Seeing Nan Yi nodded in agreement, Wan Ping'an reached out and pulled Nan Yi to sit down.

Then Wan Ping'an suddenly had an idea, waved his hand, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, handed it over and said:

"Let me explain the situation to you, Master Nan Yi, in detail first."

Then Wan Ping'an briefly told him about his family's situation and what he was going to do.

Without waiting for Nan Yi to speak, Wan Pingan changed the subject:

"I heard that Master Liang Ladi is also free at home now. From now on, you will be responsible for the meals in my house, and Master Liang Ladi will be responsible for purchasing the necessary materials..."

"If you are too busy, you can choose a few experienced apprentices. I will pay them all one hundred yuan a month..."

"Master Nan Yi, what do you think..."

I heard that not only myself, but even my wife Liang Ladi, could take this opportunity to get in touch with her.

Get a high salary of one hundred yuan a month.

At that moment, Nan Yi immediately bowed and thanked him: "Thank you, boss..."

Wan Ping'an's move can be said to have instantly solved the most difficult problem facing their family!

As Nan Yi expressed his gratitude, Wan Pingan couldn't help but say, "If Master Nan Yi doesn't mind, I can start working today..."

"It just so happens that there are dozens of masters in my mansion who are repairing and renovating the mansion, and they are waiting for you, Master Nan Yi, to cook for them..."

"I just don't know if Master Nan Yi can start working today..."

After Wan Ping'an said this, Nan Yi nodded without thinking and said, "No problem..."

"I can go back and say hello now and start working right away..."

After saying that, Nan Yi didn't delay any longer. He stood up and prepared to go back to tell Liang Ladi.

But at this moment, Wan Ping'an suddenly reached out to stop him.

"Master Nan Yi, wait a moment..."

Under Nan Yi's puzzled gaze, Wan Ping'an reached out and took out a few big unity notes, handed them to Nan Yi and said:

"Master Nan Yi, take this hundred yuan. It's my advance payment to Master Nan Yi..."

Looking at the great unity handed over by Wan Ping'an, Nan Yi opened his mouth and wanted to say something.

But for a moment, he secretly hesitated in his heart.

Nan Yi knew very well what the situation was at his home at this moment.

He just hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and took it and said, "Thank you, boss..."

"Boss, please wait a moment. I'll go back and say hello..."

Taking the hundred yuan handed over by Wan Ping'an, Nan Yi didn't delay any further and went straight to his home.

Wan Ping'an didn't have to wait long. Nan Yi, breathing heavily, returned to the scene to reunite with Wan Ping'an.

Looking at Nan Yi's appearance at this moment, Wan Ping'an said with a smile on his face: "I have greeted you..."

"Now that we've said hello, let's go..."

Without waiting for Nan Yi to answer, Wan Ping'an stood up and greeted him directly.

After dozens of minutes, Wan Ping'an brought Nan Yi back to his own Beile Mansion.

"This, this, this is the boss's residence..."

Looking at the Beile Mansion in front of him, Nan Yi couldn't help but widen his eyes for a moment.

Even though Nan Yi looks a little lonely now, their Nan family was once prosperous and flourishing!

Although he had never set foot in the Beile Mansion, Nan Yi naturally knew about the situation in the Beile Mansion and had heard of the legend of the Beile Mansion.

"This is the courtyard I just bought. The mansion is currently undergoing a large-scale renovation..."

Wan Ping'an explained, then took Nan Yi into the mansion and went straight to the kitchen in the central courtyard.

"Take a look at what's missing from this kitchen. From now on, this kitchen will be under your control, Master Nan Yi..."

Following Wan Ping'an's suggestion, Nan Yi first checked the kitchen.

All kinds of knives and seasonings are fully prepared.

There are also bags of corn flour and even rice and other staple foods.

In addition, there were several pheasants, hares, and half a pig of wild boar meat weighing hundreds of pounds!

When seeing these things in the kitchen, Nan Yi's expression did not change much.

Wan Ping'an could afford such a huge Prince's Mansion, so it was normal for him to have these things in the kitchen.

It would be really surprising if these things were not available in the kitchen, or if it was too simple.

If he was really too stingy, Nan Yi might think carefully about whether he really wanted to stay.

"No problem, the boss's kitchen is fully prepared..."

"Even if there are some missing things, they are basically things that are not used in daily life..."

"Then find a time to replenish these things..."

Hearing this, Wan Ping'an nodded slightly and said with a smile: "From now on, the kitchen affairs will be handled by Master Nan Yi..."

"The things in the mansion can barely last for a day or two..."

"When the time comes, let Chef Liang Ladi take care of anything you need to replenish or purchase..."

Seeing that Wan Ping'an actually trusted him so much, Nan Yi couldn't help but open his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.

But when the words came to his lips, Nan Yi didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Thank you for your trust, Boss. I will do my best to show my best skills in the future."

Seeing Nan Yi's expression of treating him as a close friend, Wan Ping'an reached out and patted Nan Yi on the shoulder and said:

"From now on, I will leave the kitchen to you, Master Nan..."

After finishing his words, Wan Ping'an left the kitchen without waiting for Nan Yi to say anything else.

After watching Wan Ping'an's figure leave and disappear from his sight, Nan Yi withdrew his gaze and looked at the kitchen in front of him again.

After taking a look, Nan Yi didn't say anything and started preparing his first lunch here!
