The inspection team was sent by higher-ups to assist Xia Meng, and they quickly took Guo Dayou away.

The staff were very happy to see Guo Dayou being taken away, and the way they looked at Xia Meng was different.

In the past, they all thought that Xia Meng was just a mascot sent down by the higher-ups out of helplessness.

How could a young and beautiful woman gain a foothold in Tangzhou? It was impossible.

If this woman is a native of Tangzhou, then maybe it is possible.

But this woman is obviously not!

The situation in Tangzhou is too complicated and it is not something an ordinary woman can handle.

But in the short time they spent together, these low-level employees saw a unique side of Xia Meng.

Xia Meng did not choose to go along with the local tyrants. Even though the local tyrants tried to kill her several times, they failed every time. This woman... is so lucky!

Moreover, the most crucial thing is that in the face of several attempts by the local tyrants to win her over, this woman did not waver at all, as if she did not care about anything and wanted nothing, just like a clay sculpture without emotions and desires.

Money and power can't impress her. I really don't know what she wants? ? ? ! ! !

Xia Meng asked people to go directly to the job market and find five experienced chefs.

The oldest of these five chefs is 50 years old and the youngest is 29. They all have experience working in large hotels, but they lost their jobs because the hotels closed down after the natural disasters began.

Xia Meng asked each of them to cook two specialties. These five chefs had been unemployed for a long time. It was not easy for them to get into such a good company. They really wanted to use all their skills to cook specialties, which were all colorful, fragrant and delicious.

Xia Meng also examined their character, and found that they were very good. Xia Meng chose the chef with management experience and the oldest chef to be the head chef.

The chef’s name is Li Decai!

He used to be a well-known chef in a five-star hotel, but after the natural disaster, he lost his job. In order to earn money to support his family, he could only set up a stall and sell his specialty beef noodles.

However, there are too many people setting up stalls now, and the noodles sold by Li Decai are not cheap. Although they taste good, there are not many customers. In addition, people really don’t have much money now and dare not spend. The money Li Decai earns is barely enough to support his family.

Setting up a street stall is too unstable. In order to find a stable job, Li Decai often goes to the job market, hoping to find a slightly better and more stable job.

But I couldn't find it after searching for a long time.

Until today...

After getting the job, Li Decai still couldn't believe it. Not only him, but the other four chefs also couldn't believe that they were so lucky.

Is this a good job really theirs?

Several chefs were ecstatic!!!

However, before they started working, Xia Meng still gave them some precautions in advance.

"Do you know how you got this job?"

The five chefs looked at each other, then looked at Xia Meng, and shook their heads to indicate that they didn't know.

Xia Meng told a few people about Guo Dayou's affairs.

When they heard this, a trace of panic flashed in their eyes, and they repeatedly assured Xia Meng:

"Governor Xia, don't worry. I, Li Decai, will never do such a thing! Since you have handed the kitchen to me, I promise that I will satisfy you," Li Decai said with true feelings.

"Governor Xia, you don't know how difficult it is to find a job nowadays. Since you have given us such a good job, we will definitely not do anything reckless. We will definitely do our job well. You can come and check on us every day."

"Yes, Governor Xia, we will make sure to keep a record of the accounts every day and keep them clear. We promise not to do anything wrong."

"Governor Xia, don't worry. We will work hard to get this good job. You dare not betray your trust in us."

Xia Meng nodded slightly, expressing her satisfaction with their attitude, and finally said,

"You really need to keep a clear record of your accounts. I will have people come to check at any time. Even now, many people are watching me. If they can't find any problems with me, they may turn their attention to you. If you are fine, it's fine. But if you are, I will not show mercy."

"Don't think that I will let your behavior go just because I found you. That's impossible."

"If you work hard and make sure everyone is satisfied with the food, I will be very happy."

Several people repeatedly assured that they would not let Xia Meng down.

Yang Heng and all the staff have been watching Xia Meng's behavior over the past few days.

Upon learning that the chef in the kitchen had been replaced, the staff lost hope.

Guo Dayou is not good, but who can guarantee that the next one will be good?

In that position, who can guarantee that they will not be greedy?

It doesn't matter who takes over, so the employees don't think their situation will change much.

When Guo Dayou was around, they ate boiled vegetables every day, and it should be about the same now!

If they didn't have to support their families and didn't have much money, and the cafeteria was free, they really wouldn't want to eat in the cafeteria. The food in the cafeteria is really too bad.

So, when employees go to the cafeteria after get off work, it is just like any other day.

"Do you think the new chef's cooking skills will be better than Guo Dayou's?"

"Who knows!"

"Even if he's strong, so what? We don't have the right to have special meals anyway. All boiled dishes taste the same. There's no difference. Even if the imperial chef comes, he can't make boiled dishes delicious."

"That's true."

"Oh, boiled vegetables are really terrible. I've had enough of them."

"There's a restaurant not far away. Go eat there."

"The food in the restaurant is so expensive. I can't afford it."

"Yeah, so let's just bear with it!"

"Hey!"

Everyone walked into the restaurant sighing, but before they entered the door, they smelled the aroma of cooking oil.

"Hey, what's that smell? It smells so good!"

"It tastes like... braised pork!"

"Braised pork? A restaurant can make braised pork? How is that possible?"

"How is that impossible? Maybe some leader specifically requested it. It has nothing to do with us anyway, and we can't have it anyway."

"That's right! It must be the dish ordered by some leader. Hmm...it smells so good!"

"It smells so good. I want to eat it too."

"You want to eat? I want to eat too. Let's forget it. We can't afford it!"

The employees walked in, picked up their plates to get their meals, and then they saw three large vegetable bowls, which were filled with vegetables. The vegetables inside surprised them!

Braised pork!

Fried pork with potatoes!

Hot and sour cabbage!

And seaweed egg drop soup!!!

this...?!!!

Is this true???!!!!

The employees gathered around the food counter and for a moment they were afraid to get their meals.

Li Decai smiled kindly and took the initiative to greet him.

"Hello everyone, my name is Li Decai, and I will be the head chef of the restaurant in the future. If you have any opinions about our restaurant, you can tell me!"

The employees finally came back to their senses and looked at Li Decai carefully.

He was of medium build, neither fat nor thin, looked very kind, spoke softly, and seemed like someone who was easy to get along with. Someone immediately asked,

"Master Li, are these dishes for us?"

Li Decai said with a smile, "Yes! Governor Xia said that from now on, every meal must have at least three dishes and one soup, and at least one of the three dishes must be meat!"

"As for the staple food, it is steamed buns and rice. As long as everyone does not waste steamed buns and rice, there will be enough!"

As soon as these words came out, all the employees exclaimed subconsciously.

"Oh my god!!!"

"is this real?"

"Three dishes and one soup? At least one meat dish???"

"this...?"

Li Decai didn't know why the staff were so shocked, but he still answered their questions in a good-tempered manner.

"Yes, these rules were set by Governor Xia. Does anyone have any opinions?"

have opinions?

"No! No! No! We have no objection!"

“Yes, we have no objection, this is simply great!!!”

"Ah!!! I have been a big eater since I was a child. God has mercy on me. I have never been able to eat enough before. Now I can finally eat enough!"

"I really hate boiled vegetables. I never thought that one day I would be able to eat as much meat as I want. What a wonderful life!"

"Woo woo...Governor Xia is so nice!"

"Yes, Governor Xia is so nice!!!"

It was not until now that these employees realized how good Xia Meng was.

Tangzhou is rich in mineral resources and is actually quite rich. The upper class people are also very rich, but the wealth of the upper class people has nothing to do with the people below.

They can't and won't distribute the money to the people below.

Therefore, those people in Tangzhou never thought about improving the food in the restaurant, because they don’t eat boiled vegetables, they eat in their own kitchens, and they just order whatever they want.

As for the boiled vegetables that the people below eat, what does that have to do with them?

No, it also depends on some connections. They can get more money and greedily earn more money!

The previous governors also saw this problem, but before they could change, they died or became corrupt!

Therefore, the staff did not place any hope at all on Xia Meng, the new governor.

They are extremely disappointed and numb!

But unexpectedly, Xia Meng gave them a big surprise.

Meat! It's meat!

Although they have a stable job, the salary is not high, and they have to support the whole family. The family is also very tight, and they can't eat meat very often. Now...

But they can eat to their heart's content, which is really...great!

The staff members said loudly with red eyes,

"Master Li, give me two spoons of braised pork and three steamed buns!"

Li Decai, "Okay!"

The staff excitedly took their plates, found a seat and sat down. Before they even sat down, they couldn't help but pick up a piece of red, trembling braised pork with chopsticks.

I stuffed the braised pork into my mouth, not caring about the heat, and closed my eyes to feel the wonderful taste of the braised pork.

It is fatty but not greasy, melts in your mouth, and the rich meaty aroma makes you unable to stop.

It is different from the past when I couldn’t even swallow boiled vegetables.

This time, after getting their meals, all the employees quickly found a seat to sit down, not bothering to talk, and ate the braised pork with relish, mouthful by mouthful!

The sound of chopsticks picking up meat could be heard constantly, and everyone had a satisfied expression on their face.

The meat is really...so delicious!

In addition to braised pork, there are also fried potatoes with pork slices. The meat slices are pork belly, which is stir-fried thoroughly to remove all the fat, so the meat is not greasy, but has a special burnt aroma. The potatoes are soft and rotten, and after absorbing the oil, they are even more flavorful.

Hot and sour cabbage has a crispy texture, is spicy and delicious, and goes very well with rice.

Many female employees ate three large steamed buns in one go, and when they wanted to eat the fourth one, they found that they really couldn't eat any more.
