Siheyuan: Get god-level cooking skills at the beginning
Chapter 58 Renovation
Old furniture also needs to be replaced, and the house needs to be renovated, especially with a private toilet and bathroom to deal with the mosquito harassment in the summer and the severe cold in the winter.
However, these matters will have to wait until after the new year.
Having made up his mind, He Yuzhu put away the nanmu treasure chest and fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning, he got up early, turned over and glanced at his watch. He couldn't help but sigh: "Since I came here, my biological clock wakes up at this time every day. Could it be that my body is too full of energy and can't find a place to consume it?"
After getting rid of all distracting thoughts, he changed his clothes and started practicing Bajiquan.
Although daily practice is not long-lasting, it has become his habit.
An hour passed quickly, and he entered his personal space to take a shower, clean himself, hang his clothes to dry, and complete his sign-in.
Fortunately, today's lottery came at the right time, and I won a radio ticket.
Staring at the ticket in his hand, He Yuzhu thought, "I wouldn't dare use this kind of voucher even if I wanted to.
It involves the background and origin. If the truth is revealed, it will be hard to prove the details even if there are thousands of people to say so!"
"Ding, considering the host's reasonable concerns, we have attached additional evidence to explain the source of the ticket.
And provide witness query function, the information will automatically appear in their consciousness to replace the memory! "
He Yuzhu was dumbfounded, surprised at the thoughtfulness of the system: "It's so thoughtful, it's really awesome."
After being amazed, he sighed: "This way, all my worries are gone."
He simply cooked a bowl of egg noodles, woke up He Yushui who was still in bed and had a meal together, then rode his bike to work at the steel plant.
Since the factory closed more than ten days earlier this year and would not pay wages until the 20th day of the lunar calendar, as soon as he entered the kitchen, he heard Liu Lan and Ma Hua talking about this.
"Hey, Manager Liu, you're here?" He Yuzhu greeted with a smile.
"I have a lot of troubles at home that I need to ask Master He for help. I originally planned to take three days off, but I can't do that without having my salary deducted.
My family relies on this salary to make ends meet. If too many days' salary is deducted, we won't have a good year! "Liu Lan gave a bitter smile. It was well known that her family was in a miserable financial situation. Otherwise, she would not have been threatened by the factory director Li because of the matter of taking kitchen ingredients and lunch boxes, and she would not have become his vassal.
In the blink of an eye, several years passed, and it seemed that Liu Lan's family situation had not improved.
The book portrays the image of Deputy Factory Director Li - greedy for money and lustful, but rigorous and thorough in handling affairs. He will ignore small amounts of money, but will definitely pocket large amounts.
Once the money and property are accepted, the promised things will naturally be done.
Therefore, He Yuzhu came back to his senses, smiled at Liu Lan and said: "Don't worry, Sister Lan, I will lend you the money. When you have enough money, just tell me at any time. I won't rush you. There is no rush. Take your time.
Things will gradually get better now, so just work with peace of mind!"
However, after hearing He Yuzhu's words, Liu Lan was moved and at the same time began to resent Deputy Director Li.
Because in comparison, even He Yuzhu, with whom she had a bad relationship, could generously donate 100 yuan at a critical moment to help them through the difficult times; and her old boss, Deputy Director Li, who she had followed for many years, had given her very few benefits except for letting her take some meals home from time to time. For example, recently, if she hadn't come to him because she really couldn't hold on any longer, she probably wouldn't have been able to give him even ten yuan.
The sharp contrast made Liu Lan increasingly dissatisfied with Deputy Director Li.
"Thank you very much for your help, Master He." Liu Lan expressed his gratitude sincerely.
"Why are you being so polite? It just so happens that the factory gave me a bonus of 200 yuan during this period, and Huazi mentioned your family's situation, so I decided to do this.
We work in the same factory, so it's only natural for us to help each other. The money is just a temporary loan, and we have to pay it back in the future. After all, it's not for free, haha!"
He Yuzhu smiled easily, then turned around to check whether today's ingredients were ready.
"I will return it to you as soon as possible." Liu Lan promised.
"Um."
Seeing Liu Lan's serious expression, He Yuzhu felt that this was the difference between Qin Huairu and her: although the widow Qin promised to repay the loan, she never took any actual action; and although Liu Lan had borrowed money from other people before, when it came to the repayment deadline, she always completed it on time and never delayed, which he admired very much.
You know, Liu Lan’s monthly salary is only 18 yuan.
After completing the inspection and confirming that there was no problem with the ingredients, He Yuzhu sat down to rest for a while.
Ma Hua immediately brought him the brewed hot tea and called him with a smile: "Master, it's time for tea!"
"it is good."
He took the teacup and took a sip, feeling it was quite good. He praised it and signaled Ma Hua to go about his business.
He waited until almost ten o'clock but still didn't receive any notice of the banquet arranged by his leader, so he was sure that he could have another leisurely day today.
After weighing the pros and cons, he went to the cafeteria to apply for leave, then rode away, planning to buy the radio.
The radio was not expensive, only 120 yuan, and the deal was quickly completed after the ticket and cash were exchanged.
After walking out of the department store, he found a secluded place and put the radio into his private space.
Originally he was planning to buy a watch ticket for Ma San, but when he thought about the upcoming pork trading time at the factory, he decided to get the watch directly at the factory.
After all, it is a transaction. After calculating the quotation from the factory, it saves a lot of expenses compared to buying from Pigeon City and then purchasing from the department store.
Just after returning to the factory, before I had time to sit on the stool in the kitchen, I saw Liu Lan approaching with a slightly strange look on her face, and whispered, "Master He, Deputy Director Li is looking for you. He's in the warehouse next door!"
"Okay, got it. I'll be there right away. Thank you, Sister Lan." He Yuzhu said with a smile.
Soon we arrived at the warehouse.
"Master He, you're here!"
"Director Li, what can I do for you?"
He Yuzhu asked with a smile.
Deputy Director Li got straight to the point. When he heard He Yuzhu's question, he immediately said, "Master He, you see, the directors of the factories outside heard that I can get pork from you, so they came to me for help. I couldn't refuse, so I came to ask. If your friends can get more, I will agree to them.
But if that doesn’t work, I can only politely refuse!”
He Yuzhu was quite surprised. You know, even Director Yang of the Red Sun Steel Plant only needed about 2,000 kilograms of pork at the beginning.
But he said he had six or seven thousand kilograms of meat on hand, and there happened to be a channel to buy meat from him, so he accepted it all.
Deputy Director Li actually asked for about 8,000 kilograms and was still not satisfied, which shows that he has a very powerful background.
Seeing He Yuzhu remained silent, Deputy Director Li comforted him, "Master He, don't worry. If it works, we can just increase the price of this batch of pork by one tenth of the market price. We don't need too much, three thousand kilograms will be enough."
After listening to him, He Yuzhu shook his head and said, "Hey, Director Li, to tell you the truth, just to help you and Director Yang get pork last time, my friend has already run around every village within a radius of 50 kilometers.
Together with what he purchased from other channels, the quantity you ordered was made up.
Now they want another 3,000 kilograms, and the price has gone up. Although the profit is good, I really can’t do it. I’m really sorry.”
At first, He Yuzhu made a windfall from selling fish, and he was so overwhelmed by the wealth that he sold all of them.
At the same time, considering that it would be risky to sell in person or ask others to do it on his behalf, he took everything into the factory.
The pork at the back is used to win over Director Yang and Deputy Director Li. After all, one is in charge of the present and the other will be a core figure in the future. It is a choice made out of helplessness.
Now that he has given his face to others and is no longer short of money, there is naturally no need for him to take unnecessary risks.
More importantly, he felt that Deputy Director Li was greedy for credit and always wanted to take all the credit for himself. If such a person was always satisfied, he would probably suffer the consequences in the future.
Hearing this, Deputy Director Li smiled helplessly, then shook his head and said, "Since Master He has tried his best but still can't satisfy me, forget it. I will just reject them and tell them that I can't meet their requirements!"
He Yuzhu sighed and replied, "Thank you for your understanding. It's almost the New Year, and the extra pork raised by the people has been sold out. The ones that need to be slaughtered have also been dealt with. It's not easy to find a source of supply in a short period of time."
"It's okay, Master He. Even if we can't count on the 3,000 kilograms of meat at the back, it doesn't matter. As long as you can get the 8,000 kilograms of pork mentioned earlier, that will be enough to explain it." Deputy Factory Director Mr. Li smiled and comforted.
"Thank you for your understanding, Director Li, if you have nothing else to do, I will get busy.
Lunch time is almost here, and it is almost time for the workers to eat. "He Yuzhu said with a smile.
"Don't worry, Master He, there's still half an hour." Mr. Li looked at his watch, smiled and took He Yuzhu's hand and continued.
"Director, please speak frankly. I will regard myself as serving under you. You can assign tasks to me directly." He Yuzhu agreed with a smile on his face.
“Actually, it’s about the cafeteria. The position of director has been vacant for a long time.
I see that you have many advantages and a wide circle of friends, so you can get a lot of good stuff.
So I would like to invite you to serve as the deputy director of the canteen and be responsible for the procurement of materials. "The deputy factory director said with a smile, as if he had high hopes for him.
He Yuzhu seemed a little surprised when he heard the news.
He was not worried about not getting the position of deputy director of the canteen - after all, the management of this area was currently in the hands of Deputy Director Li.
But I still responded cautiously: “Thank you for your appreciation. I really want to take over, but I have a few concerns in my mind.
First of all, I am not familiar with politics, I am always around the kitchen, and I lack management experience. I am afraid of messing up and losing face for you.
Secondly, the current purchasing work is personally in charge of Director Zhang. Although I don’t understand the specific matters very well, I know that it is a lucrative job.
If Director Zhang knew that I had taken his job, I'm afraid our relationship would be unhappy in the future.
After all, he treated me well before, and it doesn’t seem worthwhile to ruin our relationship because of this.”
After hearing this, Mr. Li was not angry, but explained confidently: "You don't have to worry about it. It was actually Director Zhang who suggested that you take on this important task.
You can probably guess why: He's about to retire and has a lot of tough stuff on his plate.
