Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

Not far away in Deputy Director Li’s office, he also received the voting results that had just been completed in the kitchen.

His face was full of smiles, and he was obviously very satisfied with the news he received.

Looking at Deputy Director Zhou who participated in the entire voting process, he asked again: "Old Zhou..."

"Are you sure there is nothing wrong with the voting process?"

"Don't let Lao Yang and his gang find some evidence or loopholes to use against us. That would be a loss."

Deputy Director Zhou smiled and replied: "Don't worry, leader..."

"Although Wang Dong is young, he is very cautious in what he does."

"The entire voting process was conducted under everyone's supervision. Director Yang and his team definitely couldn't find any faults..."

“I was shocked when I saw the result.”

"I didn't expect He Yuzhu to have such a bad reputation in the kitchen."

"There were more than 50 apprentices and kitchen helpers in two kitchens, but not one of them voted for him."

"It's really shameful for a person to do this."

"This matter has spread in the kitchen. I estimate that it will not take long for the news to reach the factory leaders."

"Even if Director Yang forcibly pushes He Yuzhu out at tomorrow's meeting, I don't think many people would dare to vote for He Yuzhu."

"Unless this factory leader wants to be drowned by the saliva of the kitchen staff."

Deputy Factory Director Li smiled and said, "Wang Dong is a real talent. It's such a waste to put him in the position of deputy director of the kitchen."

"But you are too young, otherwise I would definitely give you the position of head chef..."

After that, he turned his attention to Deputy Director Zhou: "You have been in the position of Deputy Director of Logistics for more than half a year, and you should be familiar with all the major and minor affairs of the Logistics Department."

"I will find a way to promote you to the Director of Logistics as soon as possible."

"As for the position of the kitchen manager that you hold concurrently, it is vacant for the time being. Since Wang Dong is too young to be promoted to the position of kitchen manager for the time being, let him manage the kitchen as the deputy kitchen manager."

"Otherwise, if we randomly assign someone to be the kitchen manager, he may not be as reliable as Wang Dong."

Deputy Director Zhou didn't expect that Deputy Director Li, who was in a good mood, would directly solve his position as director. He was very happy and full of gratitude to Wang Dong.

If he hadn't come up with the idea of ​​an open election and vote, directly removing He Yuzhu from the list of candidates for kitchen team leader, thus making Director Yang's plans all fail, Deputy Director Li wouldn't be in such a good mood, and he wouldn't have been promoted to Director of Logistics so quickly.

He decided to get some benefits for Wang Dong as well.

After all, he helped him realize his dream of becoming the director of logistics.

I eat the meat myself, but I have to give him some soup no matter what, otherwise how can he be convinced of me in the future.

He immediately said: "Leader..."

"Wang Dong has accomplished such a great thing. Do you think we should give him a little reward..."

"Of course..." Deputy Director Li answered without thinking.

This is the cleverness of Deputy Director Li in winning people's hearts.

As long as the other party helps him do something, he will eat the meat and always leave some soup for the other party. This way, there will be a steady stream of people working for him and joining his side.

Unlike Director Yang, who always makes empty promises to his subordinates but does not give them any substantial benefits.

After thinking for a while, he answered: "If I remember correctly, Wang Dong seems to be on the list of promoted people in the kitchen this time..."

Director Zhou nodded immediately: "Our steel mill hasn't produced a Level 7 chef for a long time." "He Yuzhu used to brag that he was the successor of Tan's cuisine and his cooking skills were so good, but after passing the Level 8 chef exam, there is no way to move up further."

"Although Wang Dong is young, his cooking skills are far superior to He Yuzhu's. I heard that he easily passed the seventh-level cooking test this year."

"I think it will be no problem for me to pass the Level 6 chef exam in the future."

"In the future, when we meet with leaders and superiors from other factories, Wang Dong, a level 7 chef, will be the living signboard of our steel mill kitchen."

"With him in charge, there will definitely be a large number of leaders coming to our steel mill to inspect, visit, and cooperate..."

Deputy Director Li was in an even happier mood.

Wang Dong has contributed a lot to his increasingly stable position as deputy director of the steel rolling mill.

Many superiors and leaders from other factories came here because they heard that Wang Dong's Hunan cuisine and boiled fish were very delicious. He took the opportunity to make friends with many leaders, which brought a lot of cooperation to the steel rolling mill.

The higher Wang Dong's cooking skills at the steel rolling mill and the higher his chef level, the more delicious the dishes he makes will be. He may even be able to invent a few more good dishes. In the future, more leaders will come to him for cooking, and he will also make more connections.

Who knows, one day he might replace Director Yang as the future head of the steel mill because of these connections.

After thinking for a while, he answered: "Since my work level has been promoted, my salary must also increase."

"I remember that his current salary is level 20, and he will be raised to level 19 starting next month."

"Starting from next month, I will give him 15 kilograms of game and pork brought back from the Northeast every month."

"As long as I do my job well, I, as the deputy factory director, will definitely receive benefits from him."

…………

The central courtyard of a quadrangle.

He Yuzhu went home and lay on the bed sulking.

After the election voting ended in the day, He Yuzhu returned to the cafeteria kitchen and felt that everyone was looking at him with mockery and gloating.

After asking Ma Hua, he learned that the news that he received zero votes in the third and fifth canteens had spread throughout the entire kitchen, making him a laughing stock in the kitchen.

After get off work, fearing that he would become the target of everyone's ridicule and be pointed at by his co-workers, he rushed out of the steel mill as soon as he heard the bell and ran all the way home without even waiting for Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu.

He didn't know how long he had been lying there when a hurried knock on the door suddenly sounded in his ears, followed by Yi Zhonghai's voice coming from outside the door.

"Pillar……"

"Are you at home?"

"I heard from your godmother that she locked herself in her room as soon as she returned to the yard...did something happen?"

"Hurry up and open the door and talk to your godfather. I'll help you find a solution."

Yi Zhonghai's purpose in coming to see He Yuzhu was very simple.

On the one hand, I wanted to find out why he was acting so abnormally tonight, and on the other hand, I wanted to find out whether his job as kitchen team leader had been finalized.

In his eyes, only if He Yuzhu became the kitchen team leader would he have the possibility of becoming a cadre in the future.

As He Yuzhu's godfather, he has the capital to fight with Chen Dehui in the front yard.

Otherwise, if he has a son-in-law who is a cadre, I will never be able to hold my head up in front of him, let alone compete for the position of the head of the courtyard.

Of course, despite the question, he was still full of confidence in He Yuzhu's role as the kitchen team leader.

On the one hand, it was because He Yuzhu was the most experienced ninth-level chef in the kitchen, and on the other hand, it was because of the promise made by Director Yang. (End of this chapter)
