Siheyuan: Since 1962

Chapter 84 Application
Half an hour later, Zhou Weimin brought Ding Qiunan to the door of the factory clinic, and then went to Wu Honggang's office with Nan Yi.

As for Zhou Weibing, he had already reported to the technical department.

Nan Yi followed Zhou Weimin upstairs and asked in confusion, "Deputy Director Zhou, isn't this the way to the cafeteria?"

Generally speaking, the canteen will not be located on the second floor, let alone in the same building as the leader’s office.

"Well, I'll take you to meet our logistics director first. Master Nan, you can call me Wei Min or my full name. Calling me deputy director is too distant."

Zhou Weimin also kept it secret and directly told the destination.

If you want Nan Yi to take over Xiao Chao, you must let him show his skills first.

As a new employee, Nan Yi had to cook two dishes first and show off his skills in the kitchen before he could secure the position of head chef. This was a good opportunity for him to come into the sight of his leader.

"Then I won't be polite, Wei Min, don't call me Master Nan from now on, just call me Nan Yi."

Nan Yi was not pretentious and changed his words immediately.

"You just came to our factory, so you don't know. Now our factory's reception is done by He Yuzhu, the chef of the third canteen. You know the benefits of being a receptionist without me having to explain it to you. Since I transferred you here, I naturally don't want you to just cook big pot dishes. You have to show off your skills later."

Zhou Weimin gave a brief explanation and also told him that he and Sha Zhu had a bad relationship.

"Okay, I'll make sure the leader is satisfied in a bit."

Nan Yi is very confident in his cooking skills. He doesn't think his cooking skills are inferior to that of He Yuzhu.

As he was speaking, Zhou Weimin had already knocked on the door of the logistics director's office.

"Wei Min, come and sit down. How was your New Year?"

Wu Honggang greeted him warmly, and when he saw Zhou Weimin had brought someone with him, he couldn't help but ask, "Who is this?"

"Director, this is the Master Nan Yi I mentioned earlier. I thought Master Nan Yi would definitely try out his cooking skills in a while, so I wanted you to go over and have a taste."

Zhou Weimin introduced himself with a smile and stated his purpose.

Wu Honggang gave Nan Yi a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Master Nan Yi, I have heard of your name for a long time. I have heard from leaders of other factories that those who have been to the machine repair factory all say that your cooking skills are so good, and no one can say anything bad about it."

Zhou Weimin wanted to transfer Nan Yi here, so he is half his own person. If he is a good cook, he will definitely be more convenient to use than Sha Zhu in the future.

Nan Yi looked at Wu Honggang neither servile nor arrogant, and said modestly: "Director, you are too polite. We just don't want to lose face for me."

"Hey, you're being modest. First come first served."

Wu Honggang greeted him with a smile, then pointed at Zhou Weimin and said, "You, you've been busy since the start of work. There are many guests in the newly opened factory, so you have to be more careful in the cafeteria."

"Director, don't worry, the chef is here. I have already asked for the dishes for the reception two days ago. I will bring them over and store them tomorrow."

Zhou Weimin picked up the cup that Wu Honggang pushed over, took a sip of tea, and said comfortably: "Hey, it has to be the tea from you, Director. I've been thinking about this during the New Year."

Wu Honggang also poured a cup for Nan Yi, pointed at Zhou Weimin and scolded him with a smile: "You kid took enough good tea from me, isn't it enough for you to drink during the New Year?"

"It's not enough. I gave it all to my father-in-law. There's nothing left."

Zhou Weimin pretended to be helpless, and did not forget to drink a sip of tea happily after he finished speaking.

"Oh? Wei Min, are you getting married?" Wu Honggang asked with some surprise. He had just urged her before the New Year, but he didn't expect that he had even met his father-in-law after returning from the New Year.

"Yes, I am here to submit my marriage application to you, Director. It will be held in five days. We have discussed it and will not hold the banquet. The harvest is just getting better this year, so it is not suitable for a banquet."

Zhou Weimin handed the marriage application form that he had prepared long ago to Wu Honggang, smiling happily.

"Okay, okay, congratulations. I've urged the HR department to approve the application. I promise it will be approved in the next two days. I can't wait to eat your wedding candy."

Wu Honggang also smiled happily. Zhou Weimin had a family now and had ties. It was more reassuring to work with a man like him, and he didn't have to worry about him causing trouble because of a woman.

The beginning of the year was full of good things, which made his already good mood even better.

"Director, if there's nothing else, I'll take Master Nan to the cafeteria first. Remember to come over when you're done here."

After finishing the story, Zhou Weimin didn't want to stay any longer and stood up to say goodbye.

Wu Honggang nodded and said to the two with a smile: "Okay, you guys go ahead and do your work. I'll call Deputy Director Li to come over later. Some meat has just arrived in the canteen. Just go get it if you need it."

He believed that Zhou Weimin would not do anything without a purpose, so he naturally didn't mind asking Li Huaide to go together to try Nan Yi's cooking.

"That's great. I was worried that Chef Nan wouldn't be able to show his cooking skills if it was just potatoes and radishes."

After Zhou Weimin said something joking, he took Nan Yi out of the office.

Not long after walking out of the office, Zhou Weimin smiled and said, "Nan Yi, I have fought for the opportunity for you. Whether you can be a hostess in the future depends on you."

"Wei Min, just watch. I won't say more. You won't be disappointed when you taste the food."

Nan Yi smiled confidently. The opportunity was right in front of him. If he couldn't seize it, it would be his own fault and he couldn't blame anyone else.

"Hahaha, don't take it so seriously. I was just joking. I'm absolutely confident in your cooking skills."

Zhou Weimin laughed heartily and continued, "Nan Yi, you heard it just now. I'm getting married in five days. You have to help me with the cooking."

As he spoke, Zhou Weimin took out two dollars and handed it to Nan Yi.

Sha Zhu now runs a banquet outside, and it costs about two dollars per table. Nan Yi feels that this money is more worthwhile than what he paid to Sha Zhu.

"No, no, I'll cook the food, but I can't take the money. I can come to the steel mill thanks to you, Wei Min, and you helped me so much today. I can't take the money no matter what."

Nan Yi quickly declined, not wanting to take the money.

It was just helping to cook a table of dishes, which didn't take much effort. He felt really bad to ask him to charge money.

"Hey, you just started working today, so you have to clean up the room you were assigned in the factory, and you have to replenish the things at home that are not enough. This all costs money, so don't be polite to me."

Zhou Weimin stuffed the money into Nan Yi's hand. He didn't want Nan Yi to think that he was asking for repayment, so he had to give him the money.

"I, this, okay, then I'll take it."

Nan Yi saw that he couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to accept the money.

"By the way, which yard did the factory assign to you and Doctor Ding? If it's not far from our yard, I can come over to have a drink with you when I'm free."
