Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

Chapter 180: Hu Guolong is unhappy, He Yuzhu takes office

The hygiene in the small canteen is very poor. There is a lot of dirt from the stove to the seasoning table, and the stove is even invisible!

How come Master Hu has been managing the canteen for such a long time and is so stable here? Does he have a powerful backer?
The small canteen is where the leaders of the steel rolling mill eat. It is so strange that no one manages such sanitary conditions!

"Old Ma, where does this Master Hu come from?"

He Yuzhu waved his hand, and Lao Ma came over in confusion. What can't you say openly? Why are you being so mysterious?

"It is said that Master Hu is a distant relative of the factory director. This is just what everyone said. The specific situation is unknown!

Master He, you have just joined the factory as a chef, so I suggest you don’t get into conflict with him!
We work here just to support our family, we don’t need that!”

Old Ma couldn't help but remind He Yuzhu. He thought it was unwise to make enemies right after entering the factory, especially the factory director himself!
"Thank you, I can't back down on this matter unless I don't want to do it anymore!
As the saying goes: There is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. Since I will be the boss of the canteen in the future, this conflict is inevitable!
My arrival affects Master Hu's interests, so it's normal for him to have opinions about me!
After all, there must be a lot of money in the canteen. In order to convince everyone, I must show enough strength to let them know that I got in with real ability!"

He Yuzhu looked at Lao Ma seriously. Lao Ma said this for his own good. He couldn't be ungrateful, so he naturally had to explain!

"Okay, as long as you have a plan, I'm just worried that you're young and impetuous!"

Lao Ma knew that what He Yuzhu said made sense, but he still did not approve of He Yuzhu's behavior!

He thought that even if they were to fight, they had to understand the situation first. What if Lou Zhenhua sided with his relatives and not with the law?
It's not like everyone has said that Master Hu's hands and feet are unreliable, but in the end, what happened? Wasn't it useless?
“Haha, Lao Ma, you may be young and energetic, but your strength is the guarantee!

I learned art since I was a child, and later became a disciple of Master Wang from Fengze Garden!
Now that I've become a master, how could I not have some skills in my hands?
On the other hand, if I can't stay here, I can make a living somewhere else. If I can't stay here, I'll find another place that will welcome me!

Everyone please clean carefully and make sure I am satisfied with the area you are responsible for, otherwise don't blame me for speaking harshly!

The canteen is where meals are prepared. Can you eat when you see how dirty it is?

Of course, there are rewards for good work. I promise that I will not take any leftovers from the canteen. They all belong to everyone!
If the food is good, there will be no soup if it is not good!"

"Master He is so arrogant!"

The motivation of these people has obviously increased a lot. Master He just wants to have face to think of them!
Unlike Hu Guolong, he packed up all the leftovers, leaving others without even a chance to have a bowl of soup!
The hearts of the five people began to move closer to He Yuzhu. Actual interests are the most important. Everything else is in vain. It is better to take action once than to say it a thousand times!
A relationship gained by promises will definitely not last long, and He Yuzhu has never thought of taking advantage of these leftovers!
As for the requirement to work hard, they don't care at all. Being dishonest will be despised and they may not even be able to stay in the small canteen!
Hu Guolong was very angry. He didn't know where this young boy came from and actually occupied the canteen!

He has been in this cafeteria for so many years and has a solid foundation. How could he let He Yuzhu gain a foothold?
He thought about it and decided to go to Lou Zhenhua to ask him, wouldn't this destroy his job?

Lou Zhenhua's Office
"Hello, uncle!"

"Guolong, what's the matter?"

"Uncle, there's a young man in the cafeteria, I want to ask where he came from!"

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"Uncle, I think I was deceived. What cooking skills does that young boy have?
I was assigned to work in a small canteen right after I started working. I have to be an apprentice for at least three years, right?
I started out as an apprentice and learned from a master for so many years before becoming a chef. How could he do that?"

"what do you want to say in the end?"

"I want to ask, is this factory still ours?"

Hu Guolong looked at Lou Zhenhua angrily and asked shamelessly!
His father has told him that since the factory belongs to Lou Zhenhua, it is no different from theirs and he must consider the factory!
Since the factory belongs to them, why would they take his job?
"When did this factory become yours?"

Lou Zhenhua looked at Hu Guolong expressionlessly. Damn it, he will soon not be able to make the decision. It will be returned to yours!

Besides, you are just your cousin. To put it bluntly, he is the one who gives you food. You are so shameless. It shows that you often bully the workers in the cafeteria, right?
"Uncle, that's not what I meant. I've managed the canteen well over the years, and there hasn't been any mistakes!

Now that He Yuzhu is here, he has directly taken away my position as the chef of the canteen. Isn't this unacceptable?

When I was his age, I was still an apprentice and didn’t even have the qualifications to cut the mounds. I was just afraid of making mistakes! "

When Hu Guolong saw Lou Zhenhua’s sullen face, he immediately knew that his uncle was unhappy, and his tone changed a lot!
"This is not something you should worry about. He Yuzhu was invited here by me and Team Leader Yang. Is there any problem?"

"But..."

"But what?"

"Uncle, you are just killing me. I have been working diligently in the cafeteria for so many years!
Now a young boy is riding on my neck. I won't accept it!"

Hu Guolong stretched his neck and looked at Lou Zhenhua, his mouth trembling, feeling extremely aggrieved!
"Working diligently? Guolong, do you think I don't know what you've done?

Not only did they abuse my name to bully others, they also took bribes, managed in a rude manner, and physically assaulted people. It was extremely shameful!

If it weren't for your cousin's face, would you stay in the cafeteria? Not only is your cooking bad, but you deliberately made so much. Are you feeding pigs?

Don’t think I don’t know how much you pack home every day. Just because you don’t doesn’t mean I don’t know!
I invited He Yuzhu here, and I also approved the chef of the canteen!
Be more restrained in the future, so you don't regret it later!"

Lou Zhenhua looked at Hu Guolong's back helplessly. If the factory had always been named Lou, the worst that could happen would be that he would turn a blind eye!

He himself does not eat in the canteen, which is set up for factory management and workshop directors!

Now that the steel mill is about to be donated and a working group has moved in, many things have to be avoided!
He believed that a leader would come for a secret inspection soon!
These leaders have all struggled through difficult times and they certainly would not eat out, so the importance of the small canteen is highlighted!
Hu Guolong's incompetence is clearly not in line with the current situation!
If he couldn't see clearly, then there was nothing he could do!
In the past two days, he has eaten in the small canteen three or four times. The dishes cooked by Hu Guolong are large in quantity and enough to fill you up, but the taste is just so-so. Is this level of food enough to entertain leaders?

There is always a lot of leftovers, which not only looks wasteful, but may also leave a bad impression on him!
The most important thing is that Yang Weimin has already emphasized the issue of safety. When bald elements are still rampant, the importance of the small canteen is self-evident!

The leader had an accident while dining at the steel rolling mill, and neither he nor Yang Weimin could take responsibility for this!
"Old Yang, I heard that He Yuzhu has taken up his post. Shall we go to the canteen at noon to take a look?"

"Haha, I got the news too. See you at noon!"

Lou Zhenhua put down the phone and shook his head with a wry smile. The donation was his own decision, but Yang Weimin got the information faster than him, which shows how powerful he is!
Except for Xiao Qi, everyone else in the Personnel Department is his man, including many of his confidants!
As a result, no one in the HR department reported He Yuzhu's employment, but Yang Weimin knew about it first!
It was undoubtedly Xiao Qi who informed Yang Weimin. This kind of awareness is what they lack the most!
No wonder the bald guy failed. Looking at the big picture from the small details, it’s not unfair that the bald guy failed!

Hu Guolong returned to the cafeteria indignantly. He didn't understand why Lou Zhenhua didn't help him, as he was his cousin!

"Master Hu, canteen?"

"Go away, don't bother me!"

The person who came to ask the question curled his lips. It seemed that he was kicked out by the factory director. This also indirectly reflected that the new Master He was not simple!

"Master He, I'm the factory director's secretary. The factory director and Team Leader Yang are having lunch in the canteen at noon!"

When He Yuzhu and a few others were bragging and chatting, Lou Zhenhua's secretary hurried over to inform them!

"Okay, please!"

He Yuzhu smiled slightly. One must not offend people in front of the leader easily!
These people may not be able to accomplish anything for you, but they will definitely ruin you!

"You're welcome!"

As a secretary, he gets a little more information than others!
The steel rolling mill will soon become public, and He Yuzhu joined the company at this time, and is in charge of the key small canteen. He must have a background!
As a secretary, being able to read people's expressions is a basic quality. Lou Zhenhua and Yang Weimin both value He Yuzhu, so he cannot afford to offend them!
He Yuzhu greeted everyone, some were preparing food, some were washing dishes!
The lunch he prepared was authentic Sichuan cuisine. Sichuan cuisine is a popular dish suitable for all ages. Unless you are from southern Fujian, everyone likes it!

As for the staple food, it must be rice. Rice may be a luxury for ordinary people, but for Lou Zhenhua, it is still very simple!

Little Yushui sat obediently on He Yuzhu's stool, holding the rag doll given by her master in her hand!
When I saw my brother cooking, my eyes lit up, knowing that something delicious was going to happen!
“Watching Chef He cook is a feast for the eyes. It’s such a treat!”

Aunt Liu looked at He Yuzhu in surprise, and exclaimed after a long time!

"That's right, the knife skills are smooth and the movements are not slow or clumsy!
My little brat has grown up. If he can become Master He's apprentice, I will die with my eyes closed!"

Old Ma also looked at He Yuzhu in surprise. He had worked in the steel rolling mill's canteen for more than ten years, but had never seen such skills!
The key point is how young He Yuzhu is, which is a bit unbelievable!
"Haha, Lao Ma, I'm only eighteen, not qualified to accept a disciple!

You should live well. As for your son, if my master and I like him, I will take him in!

If you don't like it, please don't blame me. Taking in an apprentice is not a trivial matter. I can't delay the child!"

"Master He, I take your words seriously!"

Old Ma looked at He Yuzhu with surprise. He was already like this, if he still had hope, it would probably be a son!
"Haha, great! So, how old is your son?"

He Yuzhu looked at Lao Ma in confusion. Could this man’s child be Ma Hua?

He remembered that Ma Hua came in to take over the shift, but he couldn't remember exactly when he entered the steel rolling mill!
"Ten years old!"

"So young? Then you've been worrying for nothing. Do you think your family can produce a college student?

If life wasn’t so stressful, I would also like to try to go to university, haha…”

If He Yuzhu could have worn it a few years earlier, he might have really prepared to go to university!

Although intellectuals will be dangerous in the future, universities in this era are different from those in the future!
If I study mechanics or something, I will definitely take off on the spot. What a pity, now I can only do things on my own!

"Hey, since ancient times, it has been difficult for poor families to produce noble sons. We have been in the capital for so many years. Have you heard of any stories about poor families producing noble sons?
Over thousands of years, there are only a few people who have left their names in history, and their endings were not very good!
Not to mention that my son is not a good student, even if he was good, I never expected it!
I just hope that the children are healthy and live a simple life. Our Ma family has never produced anyone who has achieved fame!"

"Oh, Lao Ma is still a cultured person!"

"Please don't make fun of me. How can I be considered an educated person? I can't even read a single word!
I can now write two characters, which I learned during the literacy campaign!
Which gentleman in the capital doesn’t know some historical stories?
I have loved going to Tianqiao to listen to storytelling since I was a kid, so it’s not surprising that I know a few stories! ”

"Haha, things are different now!"

"I am thankful that I can have such a peaceful life. My little brat is not destined to be a literary star!"

“Haha, if you can’t read, bring it to me when you grow up!

He wants to learn cooking, and I like him. It's not that I can't accept him, but the prerequisite is that he passes the test, and the rules of the sect cannot be broken!"

"That's it, that's it!"

He Yuzhu's meaning was very clear: I can give you a chance for your sake, but whether it can succeed depends on your son's ability!
If you can't impress him, there's nothing he can do, right?
Lao Ma could naturally understand it. He was also a man who had lived through turbulent times and knew the importance of the stomach!
In any case, having enough food is important. The cook will not starve in years of famine, and he can rest assured that his son can learn to cook!
"Let's serve!"

While we were talking, four dishes and one soup were ready: braised eggplant, spicy and sour potato shreds, twice-cooked pork, mapo tofu, and tomato egg soup!
The food is so delicious that people in the canteen can’t help but drool at the smell!

They are all the same ingredients, but Hu Guolong can't do it to this extent. People are still different!

"Haha, Lao Yang, come and try it!"

Lou Zhenhua looked at the four delicious dishes and his appetite grew. He immediately asked Yang Weimin to start eating!
"Okay, the food at Fengze Garden is delicious. Let's see if it still tastes the same in our factory!"

"OK!"

As soon as the dish took a bite, their eyes lit up. It seemed to be even more delicious than Fengzeyuan!

They had seen and eaten it before, but they were still impressed by He Yuzhu's food!

It seems that He Yuzhu's cooking skills have improved again. Maybe he can make even more delicious food in the future!

A good chef is also very important. With so many years of dining culture, a good meal can be a great help in doing business!
The two of them suddenly became quiet. There was no time to talk anymore. They just focused on eating!

Sister Liu came in to see the situation and wanted to ask the leader if there were any other requirements!

As a result, the amount of food on the plate was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Although he remained calm, he felt very unhappy in his heart!

"Master He, the food you cook is so delicious, isn't it?"

"Sister Liu, what's wrong with you? Who dares to mess with the people in our cafeteria?"

"Master He, you don't know that the factory director and Team Leader Yang are big shots. I estimate that there will be no leftovers from these four dishes!

You didn’t see it, he was eating so happily, like a starving ghost reincarnated!

We have to prepare meals in advance, otherwise, let alone bringing some food back for the kids, it would be good enough if we don’t go hungry!”

He Yuzhu was busy feeding He Yushui when Sister Liu came back angrily. Seeing this, she hurriedly asked about the situation. She thought Hu Guolong was looking for trouble again!
I didn't expect to get such information, I couldn't help laughing!
Everyone else is waiting, such delicious food, plus steamed corn bread, it must taste delicious!

What He Yushui ate was not leftovers, but the bottom of the pot left by He Yuzhu. If a child ate a little, others might not care, but if He Yuzhu also ate like this, then other people would have opinions!
What is worrying is not the lack of food but the inequality of treatment. Even though He Yuzhu is a chef, if he were treated the same as the leaders, people would definitely be unhappy even if they would not say anything!

He had just joined the steel rolling mill and had a shallow foundation, so he could not get any special treatment. The first thing he had to do was to win people's hearts!

It takes three to make a good man, and people always need help from others to get things done smoothly!

It’s not impossible to be as domineering as the original self, but it’s true that the people in the canteen will definitely be unhappy!
If he was like his original self, people in the canteen wouldn't speak up for him, and it would be good enough if they didn't curse him behind his back. How good could his reputation be?
At this moment, the employees of the small canteen either have to wait for leftovers or go to a canteen to get meals. They don’t have the same treatment as He Yushui!
"Haha, Sister Liu, don't worry. If there's nothing left, there are still some leftovers here. I'll fry some for you to try!"

"Master He, this won't do. Hu Guolong doesn't obey you in the first place. If you make a fuss out of nothing, it will be bad!"

Hu Guolong immediately reminded He Yuzhu that Master He seemed to be a pretty nice person for the time being and should be easy to get along with!

It would not be worth it if Hu Guolong could catch him because of such a small matter!
"It's okay, I know it well!"

"Okay, as long as you know it, it seems we are blessed!
I’m not afraid of you laughing at me, but the moment the dish came out of the pot, I was already drooling!"

"Haha, who says it's not true, Master Ma, you have followed many chefs, right? This is the first time I see you being so impressed!"

Xiao Li is a little braver, but Xiao Sun is much less brave and doesn't dare to speak at all!
"Xiao Li, I'm not just praising him. If Master He didn't have this level of cooking skills, I wouldn't be able to say this!

You all know that I, Old Ma, have ever flattered anyone over the years? "

"Now that you mention it, it's true!"

"Yeah yeah!"

Xiao Sun also agreed. This is a recognized fact in the small cafeteria. Lao Ma only knows how to work and rarely says anything extra!
"Master He, the factory director is looking for you!"

"Okay, thank you!"

"You're welcome. This is the first time I've seen a factory director praise the food at a steel mill!"

Lou Zhenhua's secretary spoke to He Yuzhu with a smile and a very kind attitude. The others looked at this scene in disbelief!
Didn’t the factory director’s secretary give direct instructions that time? When did he become so polite to others?

"What's your name? I still don't know what to call you!"

"Haha, Master He, it's my fault. You can just call me Secretary Duan!"

"Okay, Secretary Duan, if you have anything to ask, just ask me. I don't know anything else, but I'm not bad at anything related to cooking!"

"Okay, thank you!"

Small dining room

"Master He, your cooking skills are much better than He Daqing's. We are so full!"

"You're too polite, Director. As long as you're satisfied!"

"Haha, Master Xiao He, you are too polite. A leader will be coming tomorrow. This working group is very important. Master Xiao He, thank you for your help!"

"It's my duty, I'll follow your orders!"

"When the canteen runs out of ingredients, we go directly to the market to purchase them. The chef is personally responsible for purchasing the canteen's food. We just need to issue invoices and file reimbursements with the finance department!

Two methods:

First, you pay for the purchase yourself, and then go to the finance department for reimbursement after the purchase, and you only pay for the actual expenses!

Second, find a loan from the finance department, refund more and make up for less! No matter who you are, you must follow the financial regulations. Even if we are all the same, please bear with me, Master Xiao He!"

"You are too polite, Director. Since I have joined the steel mill, I will definitely follow the rules here. I understand everything!"

"Got it!"

He Yuzhu certainly knew the reason. The small canteen would surely serve many different dishes in the future, and the chef purchasing the dishes himself could prevent waste to the greatest extent!

Wang Dana from Fengze Garden buys many of his vegetables himself and never asks others to do it for him!
"Director, I need your permission for something. What do you think?"

"Just say it straight. You weren't so polite even when we were at Fengze Garden!"

"Isn't this different? From now on, I'll be begging for food from the factory director, so I have to be polite!"

"Haha, go ahead!"

"When I was cooking just now, I had some leftovers. My colleagues in the cafeteria want to try my cooking. Can I ask for your permission?"

"You're the chef, you have the final say, don't ask me. It's such a big factory, and you ask me about everything. How can I have a free time?"

"That won't work. After all, these are the factory's things. We can't use them without the factory director's permission!"

"Oh? I heard there's a saying among the people that if you don't steal, you won't get any harvest!"

"Team Leader Yang, you've been led astray! Even though we are cooks, we still have many rules to follow!
It’s fine if the host offers it as a gift, but if you take it without permission, you will ruin your reputation!
These are just excuses that some cooks make for themselves because they are not very skilled. We don’t have such rules in our sect. Of course, the food given by the master is another matter!"

He must convey this idea to Yang Weimin from now on; from now on, he must have the final say in the steel mill canteen!

If the leaders don’t establish this mindset now, it will be difficult to hire so many cooks in the future!
Stealing public assets is a crime. This aspect can be taken to a higher level in the future, and it will be difficult to deal with!
"I see. I thought this was your cook's rule!"

"No, we don't have such a rule, Team Leader Yang, you can't generalize!"

"Haha, what Master He criticized was me, Meng Lang!"

Seeing He Yuzhu's unhappy expression, Yang Weimin immediately knew the problem. No matter what, "stealing" is not good!

It would be strange if the other person felt comfortable after being beaten to death with a stick!

Watching He Yuzhu leave, Lou Zhenhua and Yang Weimin looked at each other and laughed!

"This He Yuzhu is quite interesting!"

"Oh?"

“If the cook doesn’t steal, the crops won’t be harvested. Let’s not talk about the origin of this saying for now!

If we agree with this statement, it will definitely be beneficial to He Yuzhu!

But he refuted it. Besides, it was the first time I saw a chef asking for permission before handling leftovers! "

"Yes, although He Yuzhu is young, he knows a lot, which is great!"

Small dining room

"Master He, has the factory director agreed?"

"Of course, just wait and see, I will make you swallow your tongue!"

"Okay! Haha..."

When everyone in the cafeteria was excited, they didn't notice that there was someone staring at them!

Watching He Yuzhu heating up the oil in the pan, he smiled smugly, then turned and left!
