Let’s eat first. I don’t think Yu’er will be home today, so let’s enjoy the feast alone!”

As he spoke, He Yuzhu poured warm water from the thermos, added some cold water to cool it down, and then said, "Qian'er, come and warm your hands, and let's get started!"

"Extremely happy!"

Wang Qian nodded happily and walked over to wash her hands.

Soon, the two sat at the dining table, with delicious dishes in front of them. Wang Qian couldn't wait to say, "Brother Zhu, your cooking skills are really great. After tasting your dishes last night, I miss the taste today."

"Hehe, just eat whatever you like.

Actually, there aren't many dishes today, just the leftover stewed chicken from last night plus some extra green peppers and pork shreds and Chinese cabbage and egg soup that I made." He Yuzhu said with a smile as he added more rice to her plate.

"This is already very good, Brother Zhuzi.

No wonder I said your mother said the chefs don't have to worry about food and drink, now I finally believe it. "Wang Qian took the bowl and gave him some food while smiling.

“I don’t know about other chefs, but I have plenty of food here.

By the way, the portion just now was white rice, which tastes better when eaten with soup.

Well, I am not a typical northerner. I am not very fond of things like steamed buns. On the contrary, I prefer rice. "He Yuzhu said with a smile while tasting the wine.

After hearing this, Wang Qian scooped a spoonful of rice and tasted the cabbage and egg, and immediately praised: "Great, brother, it's amazing, why do I feel that everything you cook is so delicious?"

"Haha, then you have to eat more.

As long as you like it, I can cook it anytime, even every day, after all, I like cooking very much. "He Yuzhu felt satisfied. Although Wang Qian didn't praise him directly, he knew it from her actions.

"Yeah, sorry, I'm really hungry!" Wang Qian said as she started eating slowly in small bites. It was obvious that she was really enjoying it.

He Yuzhu was very happy and after quickly drinking two glasses of wine, he accompanied her for dinner.

Soon, she had almost finished eating several dishes. After putting down her chopsticks, Wang Qian squinted her eyes and said in a comfortable and enjoyable manner: "Brother, I really feel like I'm missing something without the dishes you cook. What should I do?"

"Haha, if you want, marry me as soon as possible.

I will cook delicious dishes every day. You can choose from the eight major Chinese cuisines. I will cook a different dish every day. "He Yuzhu said with a smile, his eyes full of anticipation.

"It's really great, but how can we live like this every day?"

---"How can I live like this every day?"

These simple words made He Yuzhu fall into deep thought.

From his future perspective, these dishes are very common foods that he would cook and enjoy even if he was alone at home.

But in this era of material scarcity, it is hard to imagine how many people had the opportunity to taste meat only during the Chinese New Year throughout the year.

"Brother Zhuzi, why don't you speak?" Wang Qian asked, shaking his arm when she saw that he didn't say anything for a long time.

"Oh, sorry Xixi, I was just recalling something and got distracted." He Yuzhu came back to his senses from his thoughts and said with a smile.

“It’s okay, brother, I was just worried that you would feel bored, so I shook your hand a little.

By the way, can you tell me more about your compound? I really want to know more! " Wang Qian smiled sweetly and said expectantly.

Seeing her look, He Yuzhu responded to her eager eyes with a smile and said, "No problem, I'll give you a brief overview of our hospital.

There are about twenty households living in our courtyard, and among them there are three important housekeepers.

An uncle named Yi Zhonghai is the chief fitter in our Red Star Steel Plant. He earns 99 yuan a month and lives in the center of the yard.

Unfortunately, he and his wife did not have any children in their lifetime, which raised the issue of their support in their old age.

Another second uncle, Liu Haizhong, is a foundry worker in the factory. He has a technical level of seven and earns more than 70 yuan a month, which is considered a good life.

Let’s look at the third person, Uncle Yan Fugui. He is a teacher at Hongxing Primary School. The economic source of his family depends on his meager income of less than 30 yuan per month, so he appears to be quite frugal in character.

He Yuzhu spoke for half an hour, describing in detail the situation of each person in the hospital, including their characteristics. "Although there are not many people in the hospital, there are many things to do." After listening to He Yuzhu's introduction, Wang Qian smiled and shook her head.

“Indeed, the small temple is full of hidden secrets, and the shallow pond is full of turtles.

If the housing supply here was not limited and I couldn't afford to buy one outside, I would have been tempted to move.

It should be easier after marriage, as your job is somewhat intimidating to people." He Yuzhu commented.

"Oh, that's quite fresh." Wang Qian couldn't help laughing after hearing this. "'Small temples are full of hidden tricks, and turtles hide in shallow ponds', you said that?"

He Yuzhu laughed but said nothing, "You will understand later, this is not nonsense." The two of them continued to chat for a while, and it was almost nine o'clock before he sent Wang Qian home.

This farewell was slightly more progressive, after all, the first kiss was no longer a secret.

The next morning, He Yuzhu woke up early, got dressed as usual, then did Bajiquan training, boxing practice, washed, bathed, did laundry, and then signed autographs and drew prizes.

On this day, his good luck came and he drew a bag of ginseng seeds.

Holding about a pound of ginseng seeds in his hand, He Yuzhu was full of anticipation.

In fact, he had already planned to purchase precious medicinal seeds, but he just didn't have the time to find the right ones.

After checking the planting instructions provided by the system, he immediately sowed ginseng seeds in the portable space, covered it with soil, and moistened it with mountain spring water before leaving the space.

Because He Yuzhu did not come back yesterday, he stewed some green pepper and egg soup for himself, and quickly filled his stomach with some noodles, and then rode to the steel plant.

Soon, he came to the kitchen and saw Ma Hua and Liu Lan talking. "Master He is here."

“Hello, Master.”

The two greeted each other warmly, and Master He responded with a smile.

Then, the canteen director Zhang Baoguo came over with a big smile on his face: "Congratulations, Master He! Your appointment has been decided!

At the meeting yesterday, almost all employees unanimously approved your promotion. The factory publicity department will announce it on the radio later.

From now on, you will be the deputy director of a canteen in our steel plant.

'Wow, so fast! 'Master He, thank you so much for coming to tell me. "Master He was surprised and grateful for this sudden news.

"Director He, starting tomorrow, you will take over all purchasing matters for the small canteen and the first canteen.

If you are free now, come with me to my office and I will give you what I have prepared so that you can have a clear plan. "Zhang Baoguo said with a smile.

"Oh, you flatter me too much, I'd better just call you Master He or Little He.

I happen to be free now, so I will follow you to the office. Director Zhang, please give me your guidance. "He Yuzhu waved his hand modestly.

Zhang Baoguo felt very satisfied to see that he was not proud or complacent at all.

The two entered the office, Zhang Baoguo personally made two cups of tea, and then handed He Yuzhu the prepared list.

It detailed what materials needed to be purchased daily, the estimated costs and the most cost-effective way to buy them. This information suddenly made He Yuzhu feel much clearer.

After looking at the list carefully, He Yuzhu felt a slight chill in his heart.

To be honest, just from this list, he estimated that Zhang Baoguo made a lot of money every month from this business when he was in his previous position.

For example, the price of cabbage has increased by only 5 cents per pound, but the large daily demand may bring in several yuan of extra income. When added up with other materials, the amount cannot be underestimated.

Although this may not all fall into one's own pocket, as the canteen director and the person directly responsible, He Yuzhu will undoubtedly get the lion's share.

But he did not intend to intervene too much. He only needed to hand over the funds he received to the factory's deputy manager Li.

After reading it, He Yuzhu smiled and said, “Thank you very much, Director Zhang.

With this, I feel much more at ease about what’s next.”

After hearing this, Zhang Baoguo waved his hand and said with a smile: "Master He, these are the basic handover procedures.

We have to provide meals for 3000 people, and we can't be careless. If we make a mistake, it will cause trouble for everyone.

I suggest that daily consumables such as cooking oil, salt, sauce and vinegar should be purchased as needed and bought from the places listed in the list.

As for raw materials such as flour, fruits, vegetables and meat, if there is a new channel with the right price, of course you can try it. As long as it is not too outrageous, most people will not complain. "

He Yuzhu has taken Zhang Baoguo's words to heart.

He understood that this was the price from a big factory, which was obviously more favorable than the market price.

However, Zhang Baoguo still allowed him to maintain the original channel and purchase at market prices. It was obvious that Zhang Baoguo wanted to share this part of the profit.

After realizing this, He Yuzhu nodded and thanked him: "Thank you for your guidance, your advice has given me more confidence.

Don't worry, I will remember every word you say. "

"Master He, I have really seen through you. You have great potential." After Zhang Baoguo praised him, they chatted for a while longer, smoked a cigarette, and then He Yuzhu returned to the kitchen.

"Announcement, announcement. Because Comrade He Yuzhu, the sixth-level cook in the factory's first canteen, has excellent work performance and is conscientious and responsible, after discussion and decision by the collective meeting of the superior leadership, Comrade He Yuzhu will be promoted to deputy director of the first canteen of our factory from today."

"Announcement, announcement..."

Three consecutive broadcasts directly announced to the public that He Yuzhu had become the deputy director.

In the back kitchen.

"Master, congratulations! From now on, you are the deputy director of our canteen." As soon as Ma Hua heard the broadcast, he quickly rushed to congratulate He Yuzhu with Liu Lan and others.

Looking at everyone's eager eyes, He Yuzhu said with a smile: "Don't be polite, let me say two things.

First, everyone continues to do their original work well.

Secondly, I will strive to distribute more benefits to everyone.

Finally, I hope that you can cooperate more actively with our work and try your best to provide better services to everyone.

Okay, that's it, let's get to work!"
