Siheyuan: Rebirth of He Yuzhu, God of Cooking starts

"Brother Zhao, what happened? Why are you looking for me right after we parted?"

Zhao Jianshe said: "Yes, not long after we separated, I received a notice saying that you were to lead a team to send your colleagues to the countryside."

"Why did you pick me?"

"It is said that they want you to catch some game there, or maybe drive straight to Tianjin to buy seafood!"

He Yuzhu... "Okay, got it."

At lunch time, the factory manager Yang Shusheng called him over.

"Zhu Zi, we will leave tomorrow morning. Has the security department made any preparations?"

He Yuzhu responded immediately: "Stand by at any time!"

Director Yang said, "Okay, tell the canteen to make more steamed bread tomorrow morning as a sufficient meal to support the rural workers. No charge will be charged."

"That's it. Prepare steamed bread, pickles, and cornmeal porridge."

The factory manager thought for a moment and said, "These are all made from cornmeal? Forget it. It's safer to take two trucks of steamed buns. There aren't that many people, so our factory won't be in such a difficult situation."

Deputy Factory Director An Zhihua also reminded: "And you must also purchase all the supplies!"

"The National Day is approaching, and the higher-ups will definitely come to inspect our factory. You will be fully responsible for the reception, and you must satisfy the leaders."

He Yuzhu knew that this was the task. "Director Yang, Deputy Director An, I have an idea. We can't just prepare seafood for the leaders."

“It’s National Day, everyone is having fun together, and the workers can have a feast.”

"Send two cars to pick up the personnel tomorrow. I will bring an assistant with me to drive these two cars away and replace them with another one to return with the cargo!"

"Buy more sea fish this time."

Yang Shusheng agreed: "I think this plan is very good."

"However, in order to take care of the workers, the table mainly consists of marine fish and prawns, and other shelled seafood is not used, as there is not much meat in them."

Sun Hongsheng interjected: "Keel should also be prepared. Keel is easy to preserve and can be used to stew tofu or cabbage. It tastes great!"

He Yuzhu nodded in appreciation: "Director Sun is really experienced. If you hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten about this good thing called kelp."

"After drying, kelp can be eaten all year round."

After hearing what the factory director said, Deputy Director Li smiled and said, "Why not send more vehicles out? Even the seafood caught can be dried and made into fishing gear! This way, the factory workers can have a different diet in winter. Those white radishes, potatoes, and pickled cabbage are always the same all year round, and everyone is tired of them."

After lunch, they returned to their offices, and then Secretary Liu came over.

"Secretary General, please sit down for a moment!"

"No, I'm here to tell the director that you should still ask the workers to bring back some live large seafood for Director Yang as you did last time. He will have an unexpected surprise."

He Yuzhu nodded and said, "Tell Director Yang that if he doesn't confess, I will keep this in mind."

After seeing off the secretary, Sun Hongsheng brought a bag of money.

"Zhu Zi, keep this money safe. This is the money for your purchases."

He Yuzhu touched the collection on his waist and said, "Brother Sun, with this on you, why worry about threats from others?" He then asked, "Brother Sun, do you remember what kind of seafood my father-in-law likes to eat?"

Sun Hongsheng confirmed: "The crab is his favorite... I'll leave everything to you."

"Brother Sun, is there anything you want in particular?"

"I don't need it myself. You can leave the rest to the leaders."

"Then the price this time..."

"It all depends on how you operate it." Sun Hongsheng replied, "The key is for the team to keep their mouths shut. The purchase price cannot be leaked too much, but it should not be set too low to avoid the company noticing."

He Yuzhu said he understood: "I know how to balance."

"I will say hello to the cafeteria and leave work early. I may be busy for some time before I can go home."

Sun Hongsheng nodded: "Don't worry about your family. This trip will take at least a few days. Don't forget to get a gas card. Don't go to Tianjin. Go a little further. Maybe you can get a better price."

Upon hearing that he could get a more favorable quote, Sun Hong became full of energy, as this meant greater benefits for the Iron Triangle!

After saying goodbye to Sun Hongsheng, He Yuzhu went to the cafeteria.

"Dayang, prepare 200g flour buns, bean flour porridge, and pickles tomorrow morning so that everyone can have enough to eat!" After giving the order, He Yuzhu reminded, "Don't be late!"

He looked at Wen Zhijie and said, "I'm on a business trip during this period, so I'll leave the canteen matters to you. If you encounter any difficulties, go to Lao Sun to solve them."

Before leaving, Liu Lan looked at him reluctantly in the crowd, and her father said, "Lan'er, don't think about it. The director already has a partner."

Father Liu comforted him: "I know, you promised me that you would never have any more fantasies in the future."

When leaving the cafeteria, He Yuzhu walked to Zhao Jianshe's office next to the Security Department and asked about the progress.

"How's it going?"

"The team responsible for the safe return of the workers is ready."

He further revealed, "I also have other responsibilities, including purchasing supplies to prepare for the National Day holiday. The factory will dispatch at least three trucks this time. You and I will drive one each, and someone else will drive the remaining truck. After the mission is completed, we will go to Qinggang together and bring back a few trucks of seafood."

Zhao Jianshe asked: "Can we get the goods this time?"

"The factory has already placed the order, so don't make blind guesses." He Yuzhu replied.

However, you can use your own money to buy more and sell them in the pigeon market, so you can also make a profit from the price difference. " Zhao Jianshe smiled and said, "Hey, as long as you can make money."

He Yuzhu said: "I will not be in the factory this afternoon. We will set off early tomorrow morning. You should prepare yourself!"

"It's too hot in this weather. Cooked food and braised food will go bad if we bring them on the road. Let's prepare a portable pot and cook our own meals along the way."

After saying that, He Yuzhu left the steel rolling mill.

The first thing he did was to go home and deliver the electric fan to Maoer Hutong.

"Zhu Zi, why did you come back so early in the day?" the neighbors asked in surprise.

"I'm the leader, I can leave whenever I want." He answered casually.

He Yuzhu put the electric fan in Mu Chunhua's room.

"That's great!" He Yushui shouted happily.

"Brother, just bring this electric fan over here. I'm not afraid of the heat anymore."

He Yuzhu told Mu Chunhua: "I'm going on a business trip for a few days, so I'm saying hello to you first."

Hearing this, Mu Chunhua suggested: "As the head of the security department, why don't you quit this job? You are so busy every day and have to travel frequently."

He Yuzhu waved his hand: "Don't talk nonsense, I would rather not be a chef, but I can't lose my job in the security department."

"These complicated matters are not understood by outsiders." Mu Chunhua said with concern, "Why don't I help you prepare some good things to take with you on the road."
