Siheyuan: Survival Guide for Courtyard No. 95

Zhao Shanhe grimaced when he heard this lame excuse, thinking that Cui Dake would dare to say anything to stay in the factory.

The same goes for Yao Decai. Since Zhao Shanhe doesn't like this pigherd very much, any excuses the other party makes are useless.

Just as he was about to drive the other party away, Li Huaide walked over from not far away.

"Lao Yao, Shanhe, what's going on at the factory gate? It's so chaotic that I can hear it from far away.

Didn’t they say today that the village below would send pigs to the factory?

Where are the pigs?"

Cui Dake is a born actor and a speculator.

Seeing someone coming who seemed to be of higher rank than the two people in front of him, he hurriedly shouted at the top of his voice.

"Leader, I just came to deliver pigs to our factory. As soon as the pigs were taken away, these two wanted to chase me away. Do you look down on us country folk?

I raised Xiaozhuang since he was a child, and I know his daily eating and drinking patterns. If you don't kill him today, do you still have to keep him?

If this pig is not raised well, it will lose weight. Leader, please let me accompany Xiao Zhuang for a while longer."

Cui Dake seemed to be possessed by an Oscar-winning actor at this moment, tears came at will, making people feel that what he gave away was not a pig, but his child.

Li Huaide didn't know what kind of person the other party was. He thought that it was not easy for rural people to come to the city, and it would seem too inhumane for the steel rolling mill to ask them to go back directly.

Besides, they raise pigs from a young age and send them to the factory, so even if they don’t get any credit, they have worked hard.

He turned around and said to Yao Decai and Zhao Shanhe.

"Lao Yao, Shanhe, please let this farmer come in. He has sent his pigs from far away, so the factory should at least entertain him.

So, let this comrade stay in the factory for a day. He will go back home after slaughtering the pigs tomorrow anyway."

Zhao Shanhe did not comment on this. It would be fine for him to take out the factory regulations and demand that the pigherd not be allowed to enter the factory, but that would destroy his relationship with Li Huaide, which was not worth it.

However, if we let the other party enter the steel mill like this, then given the power of the protagonist's halo, it would be difficult to drive him away.

After thinking about it, he decided to let the other party into the factory first. Even if the other party had any tricks, they were under his nose. At worst, he could find a dark night to destroy the other party humanely. By then, no one else would know about it, and it would also save the burial procedures.

Li Huaide was very satisfied that the two members of the team gave him face, and said to Cui Dake.

"My friend from the countryside, welcome to the steel mill. The Xiao Zhuang you mentioned must be the pig that was delivered here, right? He should be in the logistics department now. I want to go over and take a look, so come with me."

Zhao Shanhe was speechless as he looked at Li Huaide, who seemed to have been hit by a halo of reduced intelligence. Could this be the ability of the protagonist he had imagined? Even the head of the factory could be blocked?

He shook his head, telling himself not to think about it anymore, said hello to Uncle Yao and returned to the Public Security Department.

On the other side, Li Huaide took Cui Dake to the logistics department, asking about the other party's background as they walked.

"Your name is Cui Dake, right? You must have worked so hard transporting the pigs from the countryside to the city."

"It's not hard work, it's all for national construction. If it weren't for these factories building our new China, we wouldn't have the happy life we ​​have today."

Li Huaide laughed twice. The other party's compliments made him feel very comfortable.

"Dake, are you a pig farmer in the village?"

When Cui Dake heard the question asked by Li Huaide, he thought that Li Huaide had hit the nail on the head, and quickly replied.

"Director Li, I'm a famous chef in our area, and raising pigs is just my side job.

Whenever someone in our commune wants to host a banquet, they will definitely look for me because of my cooking skills.”

When Li Huaide heard Cui Dake say that he was a chef, he couldn't help but become interested. Although there were He Daqing and He Yuzhu, father and son, in the factory, no one would object to having too many good chefs, right?

After all, every chef has his own specialty, just like He Daqing and He Yuzhu are best at Sichuan cuisine, while other cuisines are very average.

"Dake, what dish are you best at?"

Cui Dake was just busy bragging. He couldn't cook any cuisine and everything he said was just to stay in the factory.

But seeing that the leader was asking questions, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and tell him the dishes I could cook.

"Director Li, I grew up in the countryside, so of course I am good at farm dishes, such as braised pork with pork belly, braised pork elbow, eight bowls, and chicken stewed with mushrooms, which are all the big dishes used in rural banquets.

If you have a chance, you can try my cooking. I guarantee you will want to eat it again after this one.”

Li Huaide has only three biggest hobbies in his life: greed for money, lust, and food.

When he heard about braised pork and pork elbow, he didn't react much. After all, he had eaten a lot of these things. However, the eight bowls were quite rare.

This dish is prepared differently in each place, and the taste varies depending on the ingredients used.

"Dake, since you have this skill, how about you make a dish of Eight Great Bowls tonight? I have a few guests coming, let them taste your cooking skills too."

Although Li Huaide values ​​and cherishes talents, he will not believe everything others say. Even if he wants to keep Cui Dake, he has to see whether this person is worth his effort.

Cui Dake understood that this was a test for him, and he also knew that if he wanted to stay in the city, the people on the other side had to know that he was irreplaceable.

"Don't worry, Director. Just prepare the ingredients I need and I promise to cook you a feast tonight."

Li Huaide took Cui Dake for a stroll in the logistics department, and finally left him in the third canteen without any care. He only told He Daqing to let this new guy show off his skills at the banquet in the evening.

Cui Dake is not as awesome as he appears in the TV series. As a newcomer, he has to find out the details of the cafeteria before taking any further steps. Unfortunately, He Daqing and Sha Zhu are not as easy to fool as Nan Yi.

"Your name is Cui Dake? You came from that restaurant? Who did you learn cooking from?"

He Daqing sat on the chair that Sha Zhu had prepared for him, holding a teacup with a big horse and a golden sword, and asked while spitting out tea leaves.

Cui Dake had never learned cooking skills. The two skills he had were a hodgepodge of what he learned when he was a waiter in the countryside. How could he have any master? He didn't even know how to answer this question?

"Master, I am self-taught. Yes~self-taught."

Seeing that the other party was not from a diligent family, Sha Zhu was too lazy to pay attention to this guy and said to He Daqing.

"Dad, I think this guy is here to cause trouble. Director Li has to entertain guests tonight, so please don't destroy our brand.

Or should we just let him go wherever he came from?"

He Daqing is different from Sha Zhu. Since the other party was brought here by Li Huaide himself, he cannot drive him away no matter what. Even if the other party can't do anything, he has to let him show his skills first.

"Okay, Shazhu, ask Fatty to ask him what ingredients he needs. We just need to prepare the food. As for how it will turn out, that's up to him."
