Time Travel: Female Cannon Fodder of the Republic of China

Chapter 174: Disabled People in the Canteen

Except for the security personnel, most of the other employees in Shenhua are female. Zheng Mili, the director of the third workshop, was stopped by a pretty boy with greasy hair and powdered face. It was obvious at a glance that he was not a worker of Shenhua.

"Who are you? What do you want to see our manager for?"

Tang E, who was originally quite polite, became angry when he heard her speak in the same depressed tone as Ai Shutong.

What kind of boss you are, what kind of employees you have. Such an arrogant attitude!

"What do you mean? Are you trying to interrogate me like a thief? I'm the owner of Qinghonglou Restaurant, and I'm here to discuss business with your Manager He."

He still makes sense up to this point, but things get worse later on, as Tang E fully displays the aura of a dandy young man.

"Who are you? How dare you interrogate me? Are you Shenhua people so arrogant?!"

"Don't you want to sell flour anymore? Let me tell you, my family owns three restaurants and other businesses. We are well-known figures in Shanghai!"

"You've offended me! I will make sure that Shenhua can't sell even half a bag of flour, and you will all starve!"

Zheng Mili was just a child from a poor family and had never met someone with such a powerful family background. When he heard that he wanted to make Shenhua unable to sell flour, he was frightened.

With tears in her eyes and trembling lips, she apologized, "Sir, I'm sorry, I didn't recognize the great man. Please calm down. I will take you to see Manager He right away."

Who is Tang E? He is a person who will climb up even if there is no ladder. When he saw that the other party was scared, he knew that he was a coward, so he immediately took the money.

"It's late! What were you doing earlier?"

"I just asked you in a nice way what manager's office you are in, but you acted arrogantly and didn't take me seriously. You even interrogated me like a thief! Just because Shenhua has workers like you, I will not buy flour from Shenhua."

Zheng Mili was so frightened that she wanted to kneel down before him and listen to what he had to say? !

Because of her, he stopped buying flour from the factory. How could she bear the blame?

It was all because of her bad mouth that she offended the rich and brought disaster to the factory.

Oh my god! What should I do?

She will definitely be fired by the manager and may even have to compensate for the flour mill's losses.

If the flour in the factory cannot be sold, won’t it be closed? Then these brothers and sisters will lose their jobs that they have worked so hard to get? !

Oh my God! She is so evil that she deserves death!

Zheng Mili was getting more and more scared the more she thought about it. She was about to scare herself to death when He Lina came over!

"Tang E, what are you doing? Just now in the cafeteria, Shutong told me that you were here. Why are you still hanging around the door for so long?"

"Have you eaten yet? Our cafeteria has stewed chicken nuggets with potatoes today. It tastes pretty good. Do you want to try it?"

Seeing He Lina, the big tiger turned into a little kitten in an instant, "Sister Lina, what a coincidence! I haven't had lunch yet."

"Look, it's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early, so I'll go and try the food in your cafeteria."

He Lina nodded to him and looked at Zheng Mili who was about to cry. "Director Zheng, please go back to the workshop! You are the director, you should pay attention to the efficiency and safety of the workshop's production."

Zheng Mili turned into a nodding bug, nodding his head repeatedly in response of "OK."

After the two men left, she returned to the workshop in fear. She was restless for the whole afternoon and was particularly afraid that Manager He would look for her.

On the other side, Tang E followed He Lina to Shenhua’s cafeteria.

Tang E, who was sitting at the table, couldn't help but look around.

There was a row of windows on the east side, about six or seven in number. Different foods were placed in front of each window, including noodles, rice, soup, and vegetables.

When He Lina brought over two stacks of dishes and a stack of steamed buns on a tray, Tang E asked, "There are so many dishes here, is the factory making money?"

He Lina put the food in front of him and said, "You eat, I've already eaten."

Then she smiled and answered his question, "The people who cook here are all disabled. Currently, they only provide three meals a day and accommodation, but they don't pay any salary."

“When the flour mill becomes profitable, we will set their wages accordingly.”

Tang E opened his eyes wide in disbelief, "Can we eat the food cooked by a disabled person?"

He Lina, who was smiling, frowned angrily when she heard him say that, "Why can't I eat it? Disability is not contagious."

"Before they started working, we took them to the hospital for a checkup. We didn't hire anyone with a disease. The canteen staff now have no other diseases except mobility problems."

Tang E realized that he had said something wrong, and quickly explained: "I mean, a disabled person has difficulty in moving, can he cook?"

He Lina: "Of course! We have a young man with a broken leg here. He is not only good at cutting vegetables, but also cooks delicious dishes."

Tang E smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say, so he just focused on eating.

After taking two bites, he found that it tasted pretty good, so he said as compensation: "This dish tastes okay."

He Lina said proudly: "This potato chicken nuggets is the specialty of the boy with a broken leg."

"Even this chicken was raised by his parents."

"Most of the ingredients in our canteen are provided by the employees' families, which are much cheaper than those in the vegetable market."

Tang E's eyes lit up, "Then our restaurant can also buy from them!"

Who doesn't like cheap food? This way the restaurant's costs are reduced, so they can make more money, right?

He Lina glanced at him with amusement, "It's just enough for the cafeteria at the moment. Shutong is working on this part. When it grows to a certain scale, your share will be indispensable."

"If you have a good relationship with Shutong, you will definitely get some benefits."

After saying that, she winked at him meaningfully.

Tang E understood that what He Lina meant was that it would be much easier for the two of them to transfer information, but she didn't care about this small benefit.

After finishing his meal, Tang E followed He Lina back to the office, where He Lina showed him the new flour produced by the factory.

"Look, the flour produced by our machine has more bran removed, so the flour looks white. As for the taste, you have just tasted it."

"This is undoubtedly the finest flour on the market."

Tang E: "How much is one bag of flour?"

He Lina: "We have three sizes of bagged flour: 30 kilograms, 50 kilograms and 100 kilograms."

Tang E continued to ask: "How much is a bag of 100 kilograms?"

He Lina: "I won't beat around the bush. One hundred kilograms of flour from a Japanese flour mill costs five dollars, and ours costs four dollars and eighty. If you want a large quantity, I'll give you four dollars and seventy."

"Don't underestimate this dime. It can buy two kilograms of flour!"

"Besides, if you reduce the cost of one bag by three percent, you can save thirty dollars for one hundred bags. That's enough to pay three people's salaries."

Tang E: "You can't calculate it that way. What if our restaurant doesn't use a hundred bags of flour in a month?"
