Hello, I'm He Yuzhu

Chapter 285

The days passed in peace.

This day came to the factory to pay wages.

The queue for salary payment was endless at a glance, but Chen Jinfeng didn't have to wait, and the people in the cafeteria were considered a little privileged.

The salaries of their family of three were fully represented by Chen Jinfeng, and he received all the wages back by himself, but Chen Jinfeng didn't intend to distribute it to the father and son.

Li Gui is a shopkeeper, and his salary is always paid by his wife from the beginning to the end. Li Hongjun is not short of this salary now, and his side business is flourishing, so he is not short of this money.

The father and son were sitting on chairs in the cafeteria drinking tea.

"Dad, let me change a cup of tea for you, try my new Lapsang Souchong!"

It has been a long time since the last time I gave Li Gui two cups of tea, Li Hongjun watched Li Gui start drinking Gao Sui again, so he took out some good tea to honor him.

"You kid is a prodigal if you have a little money!"

Li Gui complained, but acted honestly, and handed over his enamel jar to Li Hongjun.

Li Hongjun didn't care, and brewed a new cup of tea for Li Gui.Pick up the new tea leaves with kraft paper and give them to Li Gui as usual.

Then he took out the jasmine tea wrapped in kraft paper and handed it to Chen Jinfeng.

"Mom, this is for you. Don't you like the smell of jasmine tea? Don't buy high broken tea. It's all tea foam. I'll buy it for you in the future!"

Chen Jinfeng: "What's wrong with Gao Sui, forty cents a tael, save a dollar and a tael and I can drink it for a month!"

Others in the canteen teased her: "Sister Chen, if you don't want it, you can give it to us!"

"That's right, how filial the Red Army is!"

Chen Jinfeng scolded with a smile: "Go, go, go, make a fuss!"

Seeing that tomorrow is New Year's Day, Director Fan came to the cafeteria to find the Li family and his son to discuss the meal for tomorrow.

"Master Li, do you have any thoughts on New Year's Day tomorrow?"

What does Li Gui have in mind?Just do whatever is available in the cafeteria, but that cannot be said.

"Director, what are your plans?"

Director Fan was very satisfied with Li Gui's answer: "The meat joint factory can give us [-] catties of pork on average! The factory manager means to try to improve the food for the workers so that the workers can eat satisfactorily."

In a large factory with tens of thousands of people, what is two hundred catties of pork enough for?
"How about making dumplings tomorrow?"

"Two hundred catties of pork fat with lean meat mixed with fat residue and meat oil, and more cabbage vermicelli. Although there is less meat, at least the meat can be seen!"

Director Fan nodded, but his face was troubled.

"It's a good idea, but how much high-gluten flour is needed!"

Chen Jinfeng said from the side: "Director, then wrap two boxes of noodles with cornflour!"

Li Hongjun thought it was a good idea, and persuaded him: "Director, two hundred catties of pork seems to be a lot. If two taels of meat per person is enough for 1000 people, although two boxes of noodles need a lot of flour, But everyone can get dumplings, at least the rain and dew will not fall!"

"Okay, let's make dumplings!" Director Fan gritted his teeth: "But after eating the dumplings, you have to eat coarse grains for ten and a half months, or there is too much vacancy for flour!"

Li Gui said again: "Take the canteen and eat steamed buns for ten or eight days, and we will fill up the vacancy with less steamed buns every day!"

After discussing the matter, Li Gui proposed again: "Director, tomorrow you have to ask the workshop to send some female comrades to the canteen to help, or the canteen will not be able to complete the task."

"It's easy to say. I greeted several workshop directors at night and asked them to send a few nimble lesbians to the cafeteria to help us make dumplings from each workshop!"

Afterwards, Director Fan looked at Li Hongjun.

"Red Army, what did you think about what I told you before?"

Both Li Gui and Chen Jinfeng looked at Li Hongjun suspiciously.

Li Hongjun bit the bullet and said: "Director, don't worry, I haven't told my parents yet!"

Chen Jinfeng looked at Director Fan: "Director, what's the matter?"

Director Fan took Chen Jinfeng's hand and said with a smile, "Of course it's a good thing. I thought the Red Army told you all about it!"

"So I have a niece in the countryside..."

"Of course, the conditions of the Red Army are more than enough to match girls from the city. As long as they can become me, I will arrange my niece to work in the factory, and then the relationship will be transferred to the city..."

For the person introduced by the director, Chen Jinfeng, a relative, was a little moved, but the family already had Feng Xiaomei who paid a high price of 600 yuan, which really made her a little entangled.

Chen Jinfeng kicked the ball back again: "Red Army, why didn't you tell me about this earlier, it's about your life, you decide for yourself!"

Li Hongjun thought that his old mother would treat him as one, but he didn't expect to sell himself.

Before Li Hongjun could answer, Director Fan didn't object when he saw Chen Jinfeng, and said quickly: "Well, it happens that the relatives are going to the city tomorrow, so let the two children meet first before talking about it!"

What else could Li Hongjun do?Reject directly?Don't make a fuss, if you refuse Director Fan, you can wear the shoes until he retires.

Women are born with the character of vengeance, tigress can't afford it, it's all sung in the song, are women tigers?

In the evening, little Dasha came to the cafeteria to look for him.

"Red Army, please help me cook these meats again!"

Looking at the leg of lamb that little Dasha was carrying, Li Hongjun happily agreed.

It turned out that little Dasha went out for a stroll in Forty-Nine City, and bought mutton by the way, it seemed that she was greedy for barbecue.

Li Hongjun marinated the hind leg of the lamb directly, and roasted the leg of lamb to make it more fragrant.

Chen Jinfeng secretly thought it was a pity, if he bought mutton skewers, he would still be able to enjoy it.

Li Hongjun was thinking about whether to accept an apprentice, someone must help him and do some odd jobs.

"Dad, you never thought about taking on an apprentice?"

Li Gui glared: "If you don't teach disciples, teach disciples to starve to death master, who has rumors about the craftsmanship these days?"

"If I hadn't married your mother, your grandfather wouldn't have been able to pass on this cooking skill to me!"

"But Dad, it's enough for us to take in the apprentice and keep one hand, and someone should follow along to do some miscellaneous odd jobs!"

"Look at the other cooks in the cafeteria who also accept apprentices..."

Li Gui said contemptuously: "The way they recruit disciples is to mislead their disciples!"

"It's okay to accept an apprentice and keep it, but if you accept an apprentice, you must be responsible to others. There is also a point of fate in accepting an apprentice. Some people are destined to eat this food, and some people have no destiny for this industry!"

Li Hongjun understands that in fact, his old father just doesn't want to accept apprentices, and he doesn't want to pass on the technology to outsiders and make them cheap.

But Li Hongjun wanted an apprentice who could fight, and he was thinking of Da Shuan and Er Shuan from his aunt's house.

"Dad, why don't you take Brother Dashuan and Brother Ershuan, they are all from your own family. Let them work as temporary workers in the factory first, and then turn them into full-time workers when they find a chance. It's better than turning your back on the loess and facing you The sky is planing food in the earth."

Hearing this, Li Gui closed his eyes and did not speak.

Li Hongjun didn't disturb his thinking either.

Da Shuan and Er Shuan are indeed not outsiders, but these two children are too simple and honest, they will learn as soon as the master teaches them, such people have no innovative spirit, even if they become cooks, they are still mediocre cooks.

He had thought about this before, but he never dared to take actual action. After all, this cooking skill was learned from his father-in-law, and it was passed down from the Chen family. If he hadn't married Chen Jinfeng, he wouldn't have passed it on. He is a foreigner.

The ancestor of the Chen family was an imperial chef, and there was only one girl in the family, which made Li Gui cheaper. Before his death, his father-in-law also asked him to pass on this culinary art to his sons and not his daughters...
"Fucking mother, what do you think of this?"

This has to be approved by Chen Jinfeng.

"They can earn work points in the countryside and have their own land, not to mention marrying a wife. Are you willing to move to the city?"

"Besides, you are also a temporary worker when you enter the factory. If you want me to talk about this, we can ask about it when we go back to the countryside!"

Although Chen Jinfeng didn't say it clearly, Li Gui and Li Hongjun understood that they were unwilling. Chen Jinfeng's idea was to teach apprentices to starve their masters to death, so the handicrafts of the family should not be passed on.

Li Hongjun can understand that, after all, craftsmen are popular in this era, not only in this era, but also in later generations, as long as you can achieve the top of a certain technology, you will be sought after and respected everywhere you go.
