Siheyuan: It’s so nice to be Lao Liu

As soon as the workers entered the canteen, they were instantly attracted by the aroma of the food.

Seeing Ma Hua standing in front of the food window, one of the young men who knew him well asked with a smile: "Ma Hua, is it Chef He's cooking today? It smells so good!"

Ma Hua smiled and said with a hint of pride: "Of course not. These Chinese cabbage stewed with vermicelli and braised eggplant were cooked by my master. They are so delicious that I can't help but want to eat them."

"Give me one portion of each, and two steamed buns made of 100g of flour," said the young man.

Ma Hua prepared the meal for him, took the money from the young man, and continued to serve the next person.

For a while, there was a long queue in front of the cafeteria window.

While the workers were enthusiastically eating the delicious food, several leaders came out of the third canteen. Next to them were Director Yang and Deputy Director Li.

One of the older leaders said to Director Yang, "Xiao Yang, I am quite satisfied with your factory after my inspection this time. The workers are full of enthusiasm and their work attitude is quite good. It shows that you leaders are quite conscientious in your duties."

"We old guys have made a plan. Don't take us to the private room this time. The last step of our inspection is to see how the workers live and taste the food in your steel mill cafeteria. If the food the workers eat is not good, we old guys will criticize you no matter how well you do your job."

When Director Yang heard that these leaders were going to eat from a big pot in the cafeteria, he felt uneasy, but he didn't say much!

How can we not refute what the leader said and not let them eat the big pot meals in the cafeteria!

If Director Yang did this, wouldn't he be telling the leadership that there was something fishy and the food provided to the workers was very bad?

But Te was not that worried, because Chief Liu of the Purchasing Department and Director Wang of the Canteen had reported to him in advance that there was no problem with the purchased ingredients, and the quantity was in line with the quantity he had instructed, and now they were going to Canteen 3. The chef of Canteen 3 was He Yuzhu, and he was confident in his cooking skills. Although he had been punished for stealing lunch boxes, his subordinates had reported that He Yuzhu had performed well during this period, so there shouldn't be any problems.

Director Yang secretly thought that if He Yuzhu could make him proud, he would restore his treatment.

After the group walked into the third canteen, what caught their eyes were several long queues at the food windows, and the seats next to them were almost full of people.

“Is the cafeteria usually so crowded?”

The big boss was walking in front and was a little curious about the scene in the cafeteria, so he couldn't help but ask.

Without waiting for others to answer, the leader asked the leader of the steel rolling mill to wait on the side, and then he walked forward quickly with several people who came with him, wanting to find out what was going on.

The leader walked forward and saw the workers lining up one by one, getting their meals, and then quickly finding a place to eat.

The big leader couldn't help but stand at the back of the line and asked a young man in front of him curiously: "Young man, what's going on? Are there usually so many people?"

When the young man saw that the person asking him the question was wearing cadre uniform, he knew that he must be a cadre and not from his factory.

The young man didn't think much about it and said directly: "Today's dinner, all the dishes are cooked by Master He Yuzhu. The dish that Master He cooked is this."

He raised his thumb with a proud look on his face and continued, "You are probably from our factory, so you should line up here and have a taste of our chef He's cooking."

"That is, for today's dinner, Master He will host it and cook more dishes. Even though our factory is a little far from the Third Canteen, we can still enjoy a meal cooked by Master He."

"Under normal circumstances, since it's quite far from the Third Canteen, by the time we get here, the dishes from the Third Canteen have already been sold."

After hearing what the young man said, the senior leader also understood the situation and continued to ask, "What do you think of the food in your factory cafeteria?"

The young man seemed to be a chatterbox. Once someone started chatting with him, he started talking immediately.

"Of course, there is nothing to say. It's already very good."

The young man gestured as he spoke, "Although there is less meat in the dishes on normal days, there is a lot of oil in them. Every time we have a meal together, the factory will try their best to get meat. I just looked at the dishes that the workers ordered, and I saw several pieces of fat."

"I have a neighbor who works at the textile factory next door. Their food is not as good as ours, and they haven't had a single dinner party this year. Our factory is different. We've had three dinner parties this year, including this one."

The efficiency of serving dishes was still very high. The senior leader also ordered one portion himself, and one portion each of the two dishes cooked by He Yuzhu.

He led everyone out of the cafeteria and into a private room.

The big boss ignored the leaders of the steel rolling mill and started eating the steamed buns made of two grains of flour with the dishes.

The big boss nodded while eating.

After eating a few bites, he looked at Director Yang, Deputy Director Li and other leaders of the steel rolling mill with a smile on his face, exhaled deeply, and said seriously: "Your factory leaders are very good. Not only have you completed the task with quality and quantity, but you have also done a good job in ensuring the workers' lives. I commend you."

Hearing the praise from the top leader, Director Yang, Deputy Director Li and a group of leaders of the steel rolling mill immediately smiled.

Director Yang quickly said, "Leader, this is what we should do. The workers are working hard to complete their tasks, and as leaders we must of course think about them and do our best to help them improve their meals."

At the same time, Director Yang, I made a decision that after seeing off the leaders, I must reward He Yuzhu well.

This is a face-saving thing for me. With the recognition from several leaders, the steel mill will definitely not be short of tasks in the future. When the superiors have tasks, they will definitely think of my Red Star Steel Mill.

After the big boss finished speaking, he quickly started eating. After he finished, he couldn't help but comment: "Xiao Yang, your factory is now full of crouching tigers, hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Although Chef He's cooking skills are not as good as Xiao Yan's, they are also very good."

"By the way, how is Xiao Yan doing in your factory?"

The big boss suddenly remembered that he had eaten Yan Jiefang's food, so he mentioned it again.

When the leader mentioned Yan Jiefang, Director Yang said, "Comrade Yan Jiefang works in our purchasing department. Half of the credit for this dinner goes to him. He helped purchase a big fat pig right after he arrived."
