Siheyuan: He Yuzhu's rebirth in the 21st century

How could He Yuzhu not know his intention to test him, so he spoke without hesitation.

"Hey~ Director Li, what are you talking about? No matter what director I am, I am still a soldier under your command, right?"

"Hahaha~ sensible!" Deputy Director Li was very satisfied with He Yuzhu's attitude.

Pulling him to an empty office, he said:

"Zhu Zi, in fact, at the party committee meeting, most of the leaders thought that you had never done management before, so they wanted you to be the deputy director of the canteen first and learn from the director Wang Defa for a while."

“I slammed the table to express my opposition!”

"I say Wang Defa has no management skills and no cooking skills. What can we learn from him? We must let He Yuzhu be the canteen director!"

"But, I am a nobody and my words don't count. In the end, the Party Committee decided to let you be the acting director of the cafeteria first."

"One year... No! If you can do the job within half a year, you will be promoted immediately!"

He Yuzhu understood that Deputy Director Li said so much just to let him know that he had contributed a lot to this matter.

I want to accept his kindness!

"Thank you, Director Li. I'll remember this favor!"

"There's just one thing I don't understand. Why did the factory suddenly ask me to be the canteen director?"

He Yuzhu asked the question even though he knew the answer, pretending to be confused.

Of course Deputy Director Li would not tell him the real reason!

You can't say that Fengzeyuan came to poach you and the factory gave you a promotion to keep you, right?

This is somewhat disheartening!

Instead, they played the emotional card.

"Zhu Zi, you have been in the factory since 1953, and it has been nine years. You have enough experience!"

"Think about how many nine years you can have in your life? You have dedicated your most youthful and precious years to our factory, and the leaders have seen it!"

"You deserve the title of canteen director. I think you should have been promoted long ago!"

His expression could be as sincere as it could be!

If He Yuzhu hadn't guessed that it was his senior brother who came to ask for someone, he would have probably been fooled by him.

What a great acting!

I really want to give you an Oscar statuette~

"I didn't expect that my senior brother would be so helpful. I thought he would send a document to ask for someone tomorrow~"

He Yuzhu replied with gratitude:

"Thank you and the factory leaders for your trust. I will definitely work hard in the future to ensure that the workers not only have enough to eat, but also eat well!"

"Good! I was right about you!" Deputy Director Li nodded with satisfaction and asked suddenly:

"By the way, Zhuzi, have you been to Fengzeyuan Restaurant recently?"

coming!

With Deputy Director Li's cleverness, he will definitely be able to see some clues.

But he had already thought of an excuse.

"Yes, I have been there! Didn't I learn cooking at Fengze Garden for a few years before I joined the factory?"

"Recently, a fellow apprentice was promoted to the second stove, and he specially invited me to celebrate with him."

Deputy Director Li suddenly realized.

"I was wondering, Zhuzi, no wonder you are such a good cook, it turns out you studied at Fengze Garden!"

"By the way, have you mentioned to Fengzeyuan that you want to work for them?"

He Yuzhu replied calmly:

"Director Li, I'm doing well in the factory, why should I go to Fengze Garden? It's just..."

"Just what?"

"Oh! It's nothing. I was in a hurry this morning and forgot to bring a gift, so I fried a few special dishes as a gift!"

"We are all cooks, so it's normal to make friends through cooking."

"I remember that there were two chefs at Fengze Garden who really liked the dishes I cooked and kept praising my cooking skills~"

Deputy Director Li nodded secretly. This made sense!

Zhuzi went to Fengze Garden to attend a celebration banquet and casually cooked a few dishes, which happened to be tasted by Mou Changxun and Wang Shizhen.

The two masters were so amazed by her beauty that they spent a huge amount of money to transfer Zhuzi to work at Fengze Garden!

Yes, it must be so!

I have to say Zhuzi’s cooking skills are great!

"Zhu Zi, it's like this. It's because the two chefs tasted your cooking that they wanted you to work at Fengze Garden."

"That won't work!" He Yuzhu refused decisively.

"I'm used to working in our factory. Besides, the factory treats me well. I can't go to Fengze Garden!"

Deputy Director Li was delighted when he heard this and said with a smile:

"Zhu Zi, well said! You have worked in the steel mill for nine years! It is no exaggeration to say that it is your second home. How can you leave so easily?"

"The people from Fengze Garden are in the reception room. Why don't you go and talk to them?"

"Okay!" He Yuzhu agreed readily, as if he was willing to live and die with the steel mill.

The two of them quickly walked to the reception room, and Deputy Director Li asked He Yuzhu to go in by himself.

He stood guard at the door, listening to the noise inside with his ears pricked up!

A few minutes later, he saw He Yuzhu walking out of the door in a "disoriented" manner and asked hurriedly:

"Zhu Zi, what do you mean? You reject Fengze Garden, right?"

"Director Li, I..." He Yuzhu looked conflicted and hesitated to speak.

"Zhu Zi, please tell me!" Deputy Director Li felt nervous. Could something have gone wrong?

"Director Li, Fengzeyuan actually asked me to work as a second-class chef, and said they would give me the treatment of a second-class chef!"

"Of course, this is nothing! The most important thing is that Masters Mou Changxun and Wang Shizhen actually promised that they would make me the head chef in a few years!"

"You know, the state banquet master Wang Yiyun is only the second chef!"

He Yuzhu was also stunned by the generosity of Fengze Garden!

Second cook + second-level chef treatment + the temptation of future head cook!

To be honest, it would be a lie to say he wasn't moved!

With his clean family background of three generations of hired farmers, coupled with his top-notch cooking skills, he will definitely become a state banquet master in the future!

but……

This road is good, but it is not what he wants!

He has his own plans, and the next step is to do "big things"!

……

It’s over!

The pillars clearly lean towards Fengze Garden.

"Zhu, Zhu, Fengze Garden is good, but can, can..."

Deputy Director Li couldn't think of any better conditions that the steel rolling mill could offer than Fengze Garden!

Helplessly, he could only play the emotional card as a last-ditch effort.

"But...our factory needs you more!"

"There are many chefs at Fengzeyuan, but there is only one of you in our factory. You are unique in the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill!"

"Director Li..." He Yuzhu "subconsciously" glanced at the reception room, and then acted embarrassed.

"Mainly, Fengzeyuan also promised to arrange a job for my partner, an administrative position, a ninth-level clerk..."

Deputy Director Li's eyes lit up, as if he had grasped the last straw.

"Give it! Our factory can give it to you, too!"

"Ah? Director Li, my partner only has a junior high school education. I'm afraid it will cause trouble for the factory."

junior high school!!?

That’s great. A junior high school education already meets the minimum recruitment standard for administrative posts.

Deputy Director Li thought Zhuzi’s girlfriend didn’t even graduate from elementary school!

It would take some effort to arrange for her to work in the factory.

"Zhu Zi, your junior high school education is not low. You should have joined our factory to make a difference! Tell me, which department do you want her to join?"

"For female comrades, join the trade union? Women's Federation? Propaganda Department? It's up to you!"

"Oh, yes. Since I'm your partner, I'll work in the logistics department as your assistant in the cafeteria office. It's not tiring working with a man and a woman!"

"Also an administrative post, level nine... No! Just like a technical secondary school student, starting as an eighth-level clerk! Junior high school and technical secondary school... cough cough~ not too different~"

(This is a bit exaggerated, mainly to express the steel mill's determination to keep He Yuzhu~)

(If there is a problem, it must be my fault~)
