Baiyue Cave Master

The county town itself is not very big, with only a few streets.

The yard that Chen Bin prepared for Wang Yuanchao was very close to the county people's hospital, only about ten minutes' walk away.

The yard is a typical Northeastern courtyard with five main rooms and two doors. One has two living rooms and a bedroom, and the other is a suite.

There are three side rooms on the east side and a kitchen with a corridor on the west side.

This courtyard was purchased by Chen Bin after he returned home from military service a few years ago.

It's just that the situation has been too tense and chaotic in recent years, and Chen Bin's family is afraid of being reported.

So they moved out of the yard and lived in a small house in the county armed forces.

The yard was empty, but the furniture, kang, kitchen utensils and so on inside were all very complete.

It is obvious that Chen Bin and his family still want to live back in this courtyard.

Therefore, Chen Bin is very capable to have reached his current position.

Wang Yuanchao would never regard other people's abilities as good luck.

Therefore, Wang Yuanchao always believed that means were not the most important.

Everything depends on the final result. As long as you are good to the people below you,

A good leader is one who can seek benefits for grassroots staff.

As long as you are a leader and everyone can have enough food and clothing, then everyone will support you.

It’s that simple, things in this world are not black or white, but mostly gray.

This is not an option at this time. As long as your loopholes are discovered and someone reasonably suspects you, you can report it.

Any cadre in any government agency who lives at this time must be very careful and even more careful, not daring to make the slightest mistake.

Otherwise, someone might suspect you and report you. As the saying goes, it takes only one mouth to spread a rumor, but it takes a lot of effort to refute it. That's how it works.

Wang Yuanchao, Liu Wanyou and Chen Bin spent more than an hour cleaning the yard inside and out.

Wang Yuanchao and Liu Wanyou took out the quilts and mattress pads that had been prepared in the jeep and spread them on the kang in the main room. Then the three of them locked the gate, got on the jeep, and drove to the state-owned hotel in the county town.

"During the Korean War, there were thousands of pounds of coal briquettes in the kitchen of the courtyard.

When the time comes to light the kang, just use coal briquettes.

Just make sure the room is well ventilated when you sleep.

Otherwise, you may get carbon dioxide poisoning easily."

"Okay, Brother Binzi, I'm sorry to bother you this time. I have considered everything for you."

"Haha, why are we talking about this between brothers?

Besides, this house still needs someone to live in it, otherwise it will be unpopular and will deteriorate quickly.”

"Okay, Brother Binzi, I won't be polite with you this time.

When I get back, I will try to get some game, and then I will pick up my brother to have a drink with me."

Chen Bin has been going to the Red Flag Brigade frequently in recent months. He knew that the road would be difficult to walk on after it snowed, so he said:

"Let's wait until next spring. After it snows where you are, the roads will be difficult to travel.

It is more comfortable to stay at home in winter.

There is no need to be so polite between us brothers."

"Okay, let's talk about it in the spring. By the way, Brother Binzi, why are you taking us to the state-owned restaurant today?

You know my craftsmanship, brother.

Why don't we just go buy some vegetables and cook them when we get home?"

Chen Bin explained helplessly:

"Hey, brother, you have never lived in a county town. Now the villagers around are starting to prepare for the New Year and hibernate.

In our county, supplies are extremely scarce. Meat is not available either in the supply and marketing cooperatives or in the grocery stores.

Every year at this time, ordinary people have meat coupons in their hands, but they just can’t spend them, hehe.”

Wang Yuanchao looked at Chen Bin in surprise, then patted his forehead.

At this moment, Wang Yuanchao felt that he had the illusion of "why not eat meat porridge" and felt that he was out of touch with this society.

I thought I was in my previous life. I could just go to the market and buy whatever I wanted to eat.

These days, if people in the county want to buy meat, they have to queue up at the market before daybreak.

In order to get a bite of meat, the big guys were willing to endure the cold north wind and shiver all over.

Liu Wanyou parked the jeep, and the three of them entered the state-owned restaurant and sat down at a table in the corner. Chen Bin went to the window and started ordering food.

This time Wang Yuanchao did not rush to order food and pay. After all, Chen Bin was the local host.

If Wang Yuanchao rushed to pay the bill, wouldn't that be a clear sign of his disdain for Chen Bin?

Wang Yuanchao is not that stupid.

Nowadays, the chefs in state-owned restaurants are all master chefs. A master chef without inherited skills cannot do the job in a restaurant.

Chen Bin obviously spent a lot of money today. The three of them ordered a pot-fried pork, a braised pork slice, a braised pork, a braised fish, and a sour potato shreds.

There are five dishes, and ten big meat buns as the staple food.

This meal would probably cost Chen Bin ten days' salary and half a month's tickets.

"Well, this braised pork is delicious. The chef of this state-owned restaurant is really skilled."

"That's right, I'm not good at this job, but I can't do this job in a state-owned restaurant.

You have to know that being a chef is not something that just any chef is qualified to do.”

Wang Yuanchao asked curiously:

"Brother Binzi, what do you say?"

"Hey. There are fewer restaurants now, especially the head chef of state-owned restaurants. This is a serious and stable job. How can there be few competitors?

Compared with the teacher, fame, level, craftsmanship, background, and most importantly, the customer's reputation,

Wanting to be the chef is no less difficult than Monkey King’s ninety-nine eighty-one difficulties, haha.”

Wang Yuanchao was also greatly enlightened today.

"Is it that complicated? Isn't it a stable job?

Can the chef be replaced?"

"Hey, the head chef can also be the sous chef."
