Siheyuan: Started in 1950, third-level cook

"I plan to clean up the house inside and outside after the new year when it gets warmer."

Their house now has three rooms, but the house is a bit messy, and one room has even become a storage room.

Moreover, the kitchen ventilation is not very good and needs to be renovated.

Yan Bugui looked at Chen Jun with some surprise.

Cleaning the house is a big deal and it costs a lot.

Generally speaking, people only spend money to clean up the house inside and out when they get married.

Yan Bugui was quite clear about the Chen family's conditions. During the time when Wang Xia was ill, all the family's money was used up.

But now Chen Jun said he wanted to clean up the house, it seems that he made a lot of money.

hiss!

Thinking of this, Yan Bugui became a little envious, and began to wonder how much money Chen Jun could make by setting up a stall every day.

"No problem. I'll call Captain Jia for you after the New Year and you can discuss it directly." Yan Bugui said.

Chen Jun also smiled and picked up the wine glass: "Okay, I'll trouble you then, Third Master."

Captain Jia's youngest son was Yan Bugui's student. Just based on this relationship, Captain Jia didn't dare to cheat him when cleaning the house.

"Oh, it's just a matter of convenience."

Yan Bugui clinked glasses with Chen Jun, then asked indirectly, "Chen Jun, you must be very tired setting up a stall every day, right?"

"With your skills, it should be easy for you to work in a restaurant!"

Chen Jun waved his hand when he heard this: "It's uncomfortable to work in a restaurant, it's more comfortable to set up a stall."

"Then setting up a stall should make a lot of money, right?" Yan Bugui asked tentatively.

But what he didn't expect was that as soon as he said this, Chen Jun and the other two looked at him in unison.

Yan Bugui was stunned, and quickly explained: "Hahaha, don't get me wrong, I just want to ask if you can handle setting up the stall."

"If you're too busy, you can ask Yan Jiecheng to help. This kid is just sitting at home doing nothing anyway."

Yan Jiecheng is the eldest son of the third uncle. He is fifteen or sixteen years old this year. He stopped going to school this fall and went out to look for a job but couldn't find a suitable one. Either they disliked him for being too young or they earned too little. He has been idle at home for several months.

After hearing what Yan Bugui said, Chen Jun was somewhat moved.

The daily income of stir-fry stalls is now basically fixed, and fluctuates by only a dozen yuan a day.

If you want to expand revenue, you need to hire more people.

From this perspective, Yan Jiecheng seems to be a suitable candidate.

At that time, I can braise some cooked food and let Yan Jiefang run the stall, so I can earn some extra money every day.

Thinking of this, Chen Jun replied: "We can handle this small stall, but Yan Jiecheng is not going to school anymore, so it's not good for him to stay at home all the time."

"These past two days I have been thinking of a way to get Yan Jiecheng to help. If he can do a good job, I will pay him 30 yuan a month."

Take less? ?

When Yan Bugui heard the salary, he was stunned.

Wow, Chen Jun is actually willing to offer such a high salary!

Thirty yuan is almost as much as his salary as a teacher in school.

"Not much to say, it's all in the wine!"

Yan Bugui filled his own cup and drank it all in one gulp.

It was a pleasant surprise that coming to have a meal could actually find a job for Yan Jiecheng.

When this man was in a good mood, his appetite naturally improved as well. While drinking with Chen Jun, Yan Bugui basically never put down his chopsticks.

Such a delicious dish, you must eat it until your throat is full!

In the end, the four of them finished all the food on the table, and Yan Bugui was so drunk that he felt dizzy and numb.

I have to say, this loose basket of food without any water is quite addictive.

In the end, it was Chen Jun who helped him back home.

Although Chen Jun also drank a lot, his alcohol tolerance was much better than Yan Bugui's. After returning home, he even helped to clean up the dishes.

Lin Yao kept chasing Chen Jun to ask about what happened just now.

Their small stall is enough for two people, so it would be a waste of money to recruit Yan Jiecheng!

Lin Yao felt sorry for the thirty yuan and pouted when asking questions.

At present, Wang Xia also feels that there is no need for this. Thirty yuan a month is too much!

Seeing this, Chen Jun smiled and explained, "Lin Yao and I went out to set up a stall. We had almost nothing to do in the afternoon and evening, so I thought about stewing some cooked food in the evening and having Yan Jiecheng sell it the next day. This way we can make more money."

"But this business can only last for a few months. When the weather gets hot, we won't be able to sell these prepared foods."

There are no domestically produced refrigerators and freezers these days. If you want to buy them, you can only spend a lot of money to buy foreign brands.

When they heard that they were going to set up a new stall, Wang Xia and Lin Yao had no objection.

This is equivalent to hiring Yan Jiecheng to look after the stall, which is quite cost-effective.

After all, the weather is cold now, and it’s quite tiring to stand outside at a stall all day.

After cleaning up the dishes, Chen Jun went back to his room to sleep.

Early the next morning.

After breakfast, Chen Jun took Lin Yao out to buy groceries.

This is also the time when people go out to work, and many people in the courtyard go out at this time.

Chen Jun also met Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong in the alley. They were going to work at the steel rolling mill together, and they were accompanied by Sha Zhu.

When Sha Zhu saw Chen Jun and Lin Yao, he glared at them fiercely.

This guy Shazhu really has no brains.

Chen Jun didn't take him seriously at all and was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Yi Zhonghai, who was standing by, noticed Sha Zhu's strange behavior and looked back curiously. Then he looked away and whispered to Liu Haizhong beside him, "Old Liu, you live in the backyard. Have you noticed that the Chen family has changed a lot recently?"

Liu Haizhong nodded vigorously: "It has changed so much. Before, they were boiling medicine all day long, and my house was filled with the smell of the smoke. Now Wang Xia's illness has been cured, and they cook delicious food every meal, which makes me greedy."

"Yes, the Chen family survived, but Chen Jun is becoming more and more uneducated. Last time, he even dared to hit me. His status as an uncle is almost becoming a decoration."

what!

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Liu Hai felt uncomfortable.

The identity of the first uncle has become a decoration, so doesn’t the identity of the second uncle have any status either?

Liu Haizhong is a power-obsessed person who spends all day thinking about how to become a leader. However, he has no chance in the steel rolling mill, but he is the boss in the courtyard.

Therefore, Liu Haizhong attaches great importance to his identity as the second uncle.

Chen Jun even dared to hit Yi Zhonghai, the eldest uncle, so how could he take Yi Zhonghai, the second uncle, seriously?

In addition, in recent days, Chen Jun has been inviting Yan Bugui to their house for dinner from time to time, but has never notified this second uncle once, which has made Liu Haizhong feel uncomfortable.

What do you mean?

You only invited the third uncle Yan Bugui, but not me, the second uncle. Do you look down on me?

Thinking of this, Liu Haizhong lowered his voice and asked tentatively: "Lao Yi, what do you mean?"

Yi Zhonghai glanced back inconspicuously, and after making sure that Chen Jun couldn't hear him at this distance, he lowered his voice and said, "I have a way to deal with the arrogance of the Chen family boy, but I need your cooperation."
