Siheyuan: a better life

Chapter 555: Soldiers and horses move forward before food and grass are used! (Happy National day!)

At [-]:[-] the next morning, in the conference room of the Trade Department, Wu Aiguo sat in the middle of the conference table, looked at his subordinates sitting in the conference room, and said loudly: "First of all, on behalf of the Trade Department, I would like to welcome you all to join our Trade Department. Big family!”

"Clap clap! clap clap! clap clap!"

As soon as Wu Aiguo finished speaking, a burst of warm applause erupted in the conference room.

Wu Aiguo looked at the applauding people, raised his hands, gestured to everyone, and said again: "I am more pragmatic than talking about empty words and big words, so I hope that from today on we will be A comrade who eats from a pot, I hope that everyone can work together to successfully complete the tasks assigned to us by our superiors."

"Pap-pap-pap! Pap-pap-pap! Pap-pap-pap."

As soon as Wu Aiguo finished speaking, there was another burst of lively applause in the conference room.

Seeing that the applause in the conference room gradually subsided, Wu Aiguo spoke again: "It has been a few days since everyone came to the unit to report today. Although everyone already knows each other, some of them still don't know each other, so now Please introduce yourselves to each other."

"My name is Fang Younian. I am 41 years old this year. I used to work in export in an import and export trading company. I am honored to work with all of you." Wu Aiguo had just finished speaking. The middle-aged man sitting next to him , the first one stood up from his seat and introduced himself to everyone present with an elegant look.

After Fang Younian finished introducing himself, there was another round of applause in the conference room.

After Fang Younian introduced himself, a middle-aged woman sitting next to him stood up from her seat and said in a soft voice: "Comrades! Hello everyone! My name is Wang Limei! I used to be in the Government Affairs Council I work in the Finance Division and I am very happy to be a part of the Trading Division.”

"Comrades! Hello everyone! My name is He Yuzhu. I used to be the chef of the steel rolling mill. At the invitation of Director Wu, I was transferred from the steel rolling mill to our trading department as the canteen director and chef. Please be kind to me in the future. Take care of me." Shazhu saw everyone in the conference room introducing himself one after another, and then stood up from his seat and introduced himself to everyone present.

"Clap clap! clap clap! clap clap!"

After Si Zhu introduced himself, there was another round of warm applause in the conference room.

Wu Aiguo looked at the people in the conference room, and after introducing themselves one after another, he said loudly: "Since everyone has introduced themselves, the first meeting of our Trade Department has officially concluded successfully."

After Wu Aiguo said this, he stood up from the conference table, picked up the tea vat placed on the conference table, and walked out of the conference room.

Just as Wu Aiguo was about to walk to the door of the conference room, he suddenly remembered the big banquet in the evening. He immediately stopped and said to his subordinates who were following him: "To celebrate the official start of operations of our trading department, we will have a meeting tonight. A conference dinner is being held in the cafeteria. I hope all comrades can attend on time." "Director! There are several meat dishes in our department conference dinner tonight! I haven't eaten meat for several months." A young employee , when he heard the news announced by Wu Aiguo, his eyes suddenly felt bright, and he quickly asked Wu Aiguo.

When Wu Aiguo heard the young man's inquiry, he immediately remembered the other person's name and replied with a smile: "Comrade Zhang Zhigao! Today is the first meal of our trading department, so naturally it will be very sumptuous, but the banquet in the evening , how many meat dishes are there, you have to ask our Director He."

Silly Zhu, who was following Wu Aiguo, heard Wu Aiguo's answer and said with a smile to everyone present: "Comrades! For tonight's conference dinner, our cafeteria has prepared four meat and four vegetables! In the words of Director Wu For example, if you want the cows to run, you have to make sure they are full, so the food standard in our canteen from now on is one meat and two vegetables at noon, and one meat and one vegetarian food at night."

"Director He! Is this true? Meat is very scarce now. Can you really guarantee that our canteen has meat dishes every day?" A middle-aged woman was ecstatic when she heard the news announced by Sha Zhu. With an expression on his face, he quickly confirmed the news to Shazhu.

When Silly Zhu heard the middle-aged woman's inquiry, he immediately smiled and replied: "Sister Zhao! I don't have the ability to guarantee that everyone has meat to eat every day. The main reason is that our director has a wide network."

Cadres who are able to work in the Trade Department have more or less backgrounds in their families, but in this era of scarcity, even if their family conditions are very good, eating meat every day is still a luxury for them.

Now that they learned about the standard of food in the canteen of the Trade Department, everyone present was extremely excited. Several young cadres even cheered happily: "Long live the Director! Director is awesome! Director...!"

When Wu Aiguo heard the cheers of the crowd, he immediately stretched out his hand to signal everyone to stop cheering, and said with a smile: "As the old saying goes, go ahead before the soldiers and horses have food and grass! In terms of logistics support, I have helped everyone make preparations. As for this Whether this policy can be implemented all the time depends on everyone’s ability.”

As soon as Wu Aiguo finished speaking, some cadres immediately came to give Wu Aiguo a pledge. Wu Aiguo looked at the high atmosphere of the crowd, smiled and said to Lin Xuemei: "Director Lin! Our Trade Department is divided from No. 76 Yes, and we still work in the same compound. You can go to the office of No. 76 later and invite the comrades of No. 76 to attend the conference dinner tonight."

Lin Xuemei nodded immediately after hearing Wu Aiguo's instructions and replied: "Director! I understand. I will go to Director Hao later and invite the comrades of No. 76 to attend the banquet of our Trade Department."

"Master! You came back from the meeting. I really didn't expect the food standard in our canteen to be so good. I hope it will be this standard every day in the future, so that my parents, brothers and sisters can also eat meat and vegetables from time to time." Ma Hua, who was cutting vegetables, saw Silly Zhu carrying a big teapot and walking into the kitchen from the outside. He immediately walked forward to greet him and said with emotion on his face.

Shazhu heard Ma Hua's sigh, thought of the food standards set by Wu Aiguo, and said to Ma Hua with a smile: "Ma Hua! We are an agency party committee here, can we compare it with the steel rolling mill? Let me tell you, the standard in our canteen is, noon One meat and two vegetables, one meat and one vegetable in the evening, as long as you bring enough money, you can have meat and vegetables at home every day."

"Director He! Are you telling the truth? From now on, our canteen's standard will be one meat and two vegetables every day?" Master Feng, the second chef, heard the news announced by Sha Zhu and confirmed the news to Sha Zhu with a look of surprise.

Shazhu heard Master Feng's inquiry and saw everyone's expressions of surprise and expectation. He smiled and replied: "What I just said is true. As members of the canteen, we can eat in the canteen for free at noon, but If you want to bring food to your home, you have to pay out of your own pocket.”
