Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Qin Guoliang looked around in the cafeteria. He didn't expect that a cafeteria in a factory would be so big. He looked at his brother-in-law and asked, "Brother-in-law, this is the cafeteria of your steel mill. It's really big. I'm afraid it can accommodate tens of thousands of people."

He Yuzhu nodded and said, "This is a canteen in our steel mill. There are two canteens in total. Each of our canteens must provide food for 1 workers, so it is very large." Erzhuzi was very surprised and said, "Oh my God, to provide food for 1 people, how much food do we have to cook every day?"

"Where's the wild boar? Where is the wild boar?" Li Huaide's voice came from the entrance of the cafeteria. Li Huaide seemed very excited, and ran to He Yuzhu and asked, "Master He, I heard that you got a big wild boar." He Yuzhu nodded and said, "Yes, Director Li, it's in the back kitchen. The wild boar is very big."

The group went to the kitchen again. When they saw the big wild boar lying on the ground, Li Huaide nodded and said, "Master He, Master He. You are my timely help. A leader will come to our steel mill tomorrow. I was worrying about what dishes to serve him. I didn't expect you to give me such a big surprise. Also, the workers in our steel mill have been short of meat recently. Cook these for him. Tomorrow, the leaders above will also look up to our steel mill."

Li Huaide was more and more satisfied with the wild boar. He nodded and said, "I don't know where this wild boar was obtained." He Yuzhu said with a smile, "My wife's second uncle got it in Qinjiazhuang. He originally wanted to send it to the purchasing station, but the people at the purchasing station lowered the price too much. So he sent the wild boar to the capital and asked me to think of a solution."

"I thought it would be good for everyone, so I sent this wild boar to our steel mill. Director Li, do you think our factory will accept this wild boar?" Li Huaide said with a smile, "Of course we will. The purchasing department buys ordinary pork for 1 yuan, and for the sake of your master He, I will give you 4 yuan per pound of pork. What do you think?"

Erzhuzi and Qin Guoliang naturally had no objections and nodded with a smile. Li Huaide called a few more people and weighed the wild boar. Unexpectedly, this wild boar weighed 450 kilograms. It seemed to be a wild boar king. Li Huaide glanced at Secretary Wang and said, "Okay, Secretary Wang, go find the finance department to approve the note and quickly bring the money to this brother." Secretary Wang nodded and went to the finance department.

He Yuzhu asked Li Huaide curiously, "Director, the leaders from above are here to inspect again today." Li Huaide nodded and said with a sullen face, "These ancestors above just want to find an excuse to have a meal. They say it so high-soundingly, as if everyone knows it. Old Wu, please call back a few helpers from the cafeteria later, pay them overtime, and clean up this wild boar for me. Those ancestors will be back early tomorrow morning, so I'll have to trouble Master He to cook the meal."

He Yuzhu smiled and nodded, saying, "You worry too much. Cooking is my duty, and I will definitely do my best." About 20 minutes later, Secretary Wang paid the money to Qin Guoliang and Er Zhuzi. He Yuzhu wanted to leave, but Secretary Wang said, "Master He, please wait a moment."

He Yuzhu was stunned. Secretary Wang said to Director Li, "Boss Lou wants to host a few friends at the steel mill. He just called." Li Huaide snorted and said, "These capitalists have bad habits, Master He? Boss Lou was the former boss of our steel mill. We still have to trouble you. We can't afford to offend Boss Lou."

He Yuzhu nodded and said hello to Qin Guoliang. He asked Secretary Wang to send the two out, and He Yuzhu stayed in the cafeteria to work overtime. Wu Yulai was born in the countryside, and said with a dark face, "It's not enough that these people exploited us before liberation, will they exploit us after liberation? These people are just bastards."

Li Huaide sighed and said, "Old Wu, be careful with your words. Even the factory director has to give this boss Lou some face, let alone us small fry. You can't say these things outside. Although he has lost his power now, I have the upper hand to deal with you."

Wu Yulai snorted coldly and said, "These rich people are all evil-hearted, and this guy named Lou is not a good guy either." Wu Yulai was born in a very poor family. His father was persecuted to death by the feudal landlords. His mother took him to beg for food, and was eventually killed by a black-hearted boss. Fortunately, the army passed by and saved him, so Wu Yulai hated these rich people very much.

He Yuzhu was busy until it was dark, and finally walked out of the steel mill. He was holding a few lunch boxes in his hands, and he was in a very good mood. Although I didn't see Lou Xiao'e in the original novel, Lou Bancheng was indeed Lou Bancheng, and he was really generous. Not only did he give a valuable salary, but he also generously let He Yuzhu pack up the leftovers to take away.

When I returned to the courtyard, it was already dark. As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard a noisy sound. Liu Chunhua pouted and said without giving in, "It's useless for you to say anything today. You must sleep in the kitchen. If the house is smelly, how are your son and I going to sleep?"

Yan Fugui was sharp-eyed. When he saw He Yuzhui walking in with several lunch boxes, he came over with a smile and said, "Hey, Zhuzi, you helped in the kitchen this afternoon. Oh, I didn't expect you to bring four lunch boxes. This host is really rich. Look, your third aunt just gave birth to a baby today. Can you ask your third aunt for some nourishment?"

He Yuzhu knew this group of people very well. If he gave it to her the first time, there would be a second and third time. If this cycle continued, his family would not be able to survive. He said with a smile, "Third uncle, look at what you said. Third aunt gave birth to a child, but it was not mine. Why should I care so much?"

The people in the yard were watching the excitement. They all laughed when they heard this. Yan Fugui's old face turned red. He pointed at He Yuzhu and said tremblingly, "Why do you say that? I am your third uncle, I..."

He Yuzhu didn't care about the third uncle. He waved to his wife, and Qin Huairu took the three lunch boxes with a smile. Qin Huairu felt the weight in her hand, and said with a smile on her face, "This is the overtime pay given by the steel mill. It's really generous."
