Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

He Yuzhu looked at the workers, smiled and said, "Thank you all for your participation and cooperation. Ma Hua, give each comrade two white flour buns after you go out. You comrades can talk about this among the workers. I know some comrades like to have fun and like to eat together. But does the minority obey the majority? The separate dining system is what most employees want, and we should make it happen."

Everyone nodded. The burly Wang Wu said, "Director He, although I still think that communal dining is a good idea, I am very convinced by your actions. We are just a small group of people, and we are convinced by the separate dining system this time. When I return to the workshop later, I will definitely speak well of it in front of my fellow workers."

He Yuzhu nodded with a smile and gave Wang Wu a very appreciative look. Wang Wu scratched his head awkwardly, and Ma Hua led these people out of the small meeting room. After giving each person two white flour buns, he returned to the small meeting room to see if his master needed any help.

He Yuzhu asked the employees in the cafeteria to go about their business first, and went to Li Huaide's office with his notebook. Li Huaide was drinking tea in the office. Hearing a knock on the door, he called for someone to come in. Seeing that it was He Yuzhu who came in, he smiled and said, "It's Zhuzi. What can I do for you?"

He Yuzhu sat opposite Li Huaide, handed the notebook to Li Huaide and said, "This time I plan to design six packages, and each package is different. Each package has different flavors. Director Li, please give me some guidance."

Li Huaide smiled and flipped open the notebook to take a look. His eyes lit up immediately. He smiled and said, "It's really good. There are two dishes and one soup. One meat and one vegetable are matched. It's a fair match. Braised chicken nuggets, spicy chicken cubes, braised pork, Dongpo pork... Yeah, not bad. Is the staple food this time white flour steamed buns or steamed corn bread? But this steamed corn bread is definitely not as good as white flour steamed buns."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "I've already thought about it. People who choose white steamed buns can only take one, and those who choose steamed buns can take two. This time we can issue meal tickets, and in order to avoid waste, we can also issue another staple food ticket." Li Huaide thought about it and felt that He Yuzhu's plan really made sense. After thinking about it, he said, "Well, not bad. But if each person only takes one steamed bun or two steamed buns, it makes our Red Star Steel Rolling Mill look stingy. This way we can double it."

He Yuzhu took a deep breath and said, "Director, there are more than 3 people at the dinner this time. According to the amount I just calculated, at least 1 kilograms of white flour and kilograms of corn flour will be consumed. Does our Red Star Steel Rolling Mill have that much? In addition, we don't have enough staff in the cafeteria. One white flour steamed bun or two steamed corn buns per person is just enough. If you double this, it will not only be a problem of food, but also of manpower."

Li Huaide thought for a while and said, "Why don't you guys in the cafeteria work hard and steam the steamed buns a day in advance?" He Yuzhu immediately expressed a different opinion and said, "No, if we really steam them a day in advance, the taste will definitely not be as good as freshly steamed ones. You said that a big leader will come on that day, and if the big leader eats those cold steamed buns, he will definitely not be happy."

Li Huaide thought for a moment and said while drinking tea, "Anyway, this is the first time that our Red Star Steel Rolling Mill is holding a banquet, so we'd better hold a grand one. One steamed bun or two wowo buns for each comrade is not enough and a bit petty. Anyway, the staple food must be more, but it doesn't matter if the dishes are a little less. Zhuzi, think of a solution for me, this can't be changed anyway."

He Yuzhu raised his head and thought for a while, then looked at Li Huaide and said, "Then we can only recruit female workers in the workshop. In fact, most female workers can make steamed buns or wowotou, but the taste is not as good as that of us professional chefs. When the time comes, we can give them some wowotou or steamed buns and let them take a few more. Director Li, what do you think?"

Li Huaide thought about it, nodded and said, "Okay, let's do as you say. We will recruit a few female workers in the workshop and give them more staple food. I will give you a note now and ask the workshop directors of each workshop to cooperate with you."

He Yuzhu nodded and took the note with both hands. He Yuzhu thought for a moment and said through gritted teeth, "I have a batch of apples in my hand recently. Should I bring them out at this dinner? If everyone can have an apple, I believe the whole steel mill will be excited."

Li Huaide thought about it and felt that this matter would be very useful. Ordinary people would definitely not be willing to eat fruit, and most people don't have the conditions to eat it. If everyone is given an apple, then this banquet will definitely be very popular. Then his prestige in the steel mill will become higher and higher.

Li Huaide looked at He Yuzhu and said, "One apple for each person, do you have any ideas?" He Yuzhu pretended to be embarrassed and said, "When I was learning cooking, there was a senior brother whose hometown specialized in growing fruits. Their hometown is in the south, and this season is the peak season for fruits. I will contact him after I go back, there shouldn't be any problem."

Li Huaide looked at He Yuzhu and thought that He Yuzhu was really capable. He was also a very courageous person. After thinking for a while, he said, "Okay, Zhuzi. Since you have helped me so much, you can ask for any conditions or needs you have."

He Yuzhu looked at Li Huaide's sincere expression and thought that if he really didn't make any requests, Li Huaide would definitely not be at ease. After thinking for a while, he said, "Brother Li, do you have a women's bicycle ticket? You also know that women's bicycle tickets are particularly difficult to get. I tried some ways, but I couldn't find one at all. Can you help me get one?"

Li Huaide smiled and took one out from the drawer. He sighed and said reluctantly, "You are lucky. Your sister-in-law keeps nagging me that she wants a women's bicycle. As you know, your sister-in-law is a little short. She can't ride a 28-bar or Phoenix bicycle like us men. I'll give it to you first. You really love your wife."
