Siheyuan: Started in 1950, third-level cook

At this time in the kitchen, Master Li was asking Chen Jun for some knife skills.

Seeing Lou Bancheng coming in, Master Li tactfully gave up his seat.

"Hey, Master Chen, it's all thanks to you today. The customer enjoyed the meal very much. Before leaving, he said that he would like to try other flavors when he comes to our steel mill next time."

Lou Bancheng was in a very good mood. With this order concluded, he had exceeded his target for this year.

Although this problem cannot be solved by just a meal, an unforgettable treat can still help to some extent.

Especially what the customer said before leaving, it was obvious that he wanted in-depth and long-term cooperation.

Although Chen Jun is young, he is indeed a rare helper!

Thinking of this, Lou Bancheng patted Chen Jun on the shoulder and said with a smile: "The New Year is coming soon, how are the New Year's preparations going at home?"

"Preparations have already begun." Chen Jun understood what Lou Bancheng meant.

"Hahaha, that means we haven't prepared everything yet. Leave the New Year's goods to me. I buy a lot of things for the New Year, and they're much more affordable than if you go buy them yourself." After saying that, Lou Bancheng seemed to have thought of something and asked again, "Do you have a radio at home?"

radio?

Chen Jun shook his head. Their family really didn’t have a radio.

This thing is something that only a very wealthy family can buy.

After all, radios are different from bicycles. Bicycles are practical and prestigious, while radios can only be listened to at home and cannot be shown off.

Therefore, most families would not buy recreational appliances such as radios.

Even sewing machines are more popular than radios.

Lou Bancheng nodded and said, "What a coincidence! I have a brand new radio in my office. It's unopened. You can take it home and listen to it when you are free."

"Thank you so much, Mr. Lou!"

These things were nothing to Lou Bancheng, so Chen Jun didn't bother to be polite with him.

He came to the steel rolling mill today to help Lou Bancheng. He accepted Lou Bancheng's things so that he would have the nerve to come to him in the future.

With give and take, the relationship will naturally become familiar.

After chatting for a while, Lou Bancheng left as he had a lot of things to deal with.

After teaching Master Li some basic skills, Chen Jun rode his bike home.

Just as he reached the entrance of the alley, he caught a glimpse of a car.

A familiar young man was standing at the entrance of the alley, and he seemed to be waiting for someone.

"Master Chen! Director Lou arranged for me to deliver a radio to you."

Seeing Chen Jun coming back, the young driver smiled and took out an old radio from the car.

Well, it is actually the latest model, but in Chen Jun’s opinion, this radio is big and heavy, not as compact and light as the ones in later generations.

"Chen Jun just came back. Hey, where did this radio come from?"

In the front yard, the three uncles and aunts had not yet rested and were sitting in the yard chatting.

Their family is responsible for closing the gate, and if everyone in the yard has not arrived, they will wait.

"I went to the steel rolling mill to cook today. The factory leaders saw that I was working hard and rewarded me specially. From now on, we can also listen to the latest news. Listen to new news and become new youth!" Chen Jun said with a smile.

"Look, Chen Jun has a high level of ideological awareness!" the third aunt couldn't help but say.

In her opinion, Chen Jun is not only a capable person, but also a kind-hearted person.

Not only did he arrange a job for Yan Jiecheng, but he also sent food to his home from time to time.

"Well, uncles and aunts, I'm going home first."

"Hey, wait a minute." Seeing Chen Jun was about to leave, the third aunt asked hurriedly, "I have something I want to ask you."

"Where did you buy those three old hens?"

Old hen?

Chen Jun looked at the third aunt with some surprise. Why was she asking about the old hen out of the blue?

"Your old hen is really prolific. I heard that she laid two eggs in the morning and another egg in the evening. That means she laid three eggs a day!"

Good guy!

Not to mention the three aunts, even Chen Jun was a little surprised.

If a hen lays three eggs a day, she’ll be lucky!

No, it’s not the chicken’s problem, it’s that the feed provided by the system is good.

For an ordinary old hen, it is considered very good to be able to lay eggs at this time, let alone laying three eggs a day.

"Well, I bought that old hen at the market." After a pause, Chen Jun added, "But if you go there tomorrow, it will definitely be too late. That person's chickens have already been sold out."

"Hey!" When the third aunt heard this, she slapped her thigh in annoyance.

Such a good chicken is hard to come by!

In fact, it was not only the three aunts who had this idea, other people in the hospital were also equally tempted.

This is an old hen that can lay three eggs a day. Who wouldn’t be envious when seeing it?

But no matter how excited they are, most people are still very rational.

After all, an old hen is not cheap. If you buy it and it doesn't lay eggs, you'd be losing money.

So in the next few days, everyone in the yard paid attention to the old hen in Chen Jun's family.

That morning, the aunties in the yard sat in the middle yard, basking in the sun and doing handicrafts.

The second aunt pursed the thread in her hand, threaded it through the eye of the needle, and then said casually, "Did you see that? This morning, Wang Xia picked up six more eggs from the chicken coop."

"Is it true? He picked up six more?"

"Wow, the Chen family has found a treasure. They picked up six eggs in the morning and three in the evening, which means nine eggs a day. There are only three people in their family, so each person can get three eggs a day!"

"Of course. Even if you don't eat the eggs yourself, you can still make money by selling them. I heard Wang Xia say yesterday that she would buy a few more after the Chinese New Year."

Upon hearing this, Jia Zhang, who was sitting at the door of her house, couldn't help but snort coldly.

She was just released early this morning. After returning to the yard, instead of staying at home, she came out to mend shoe soles.

In her opinion, even though her relationship with Sha Zhu had broken up, she didn't suffer any loss!

I haven't suffered any loss, so there's nothing to be embarrassed about!

But not long after she sat down, she heard the aunties in the yard talking about the chickens raised by Chen Jun's family.

"The Chen family knows nothing. The old hen will die of exhaustion sooner or later if it keeps laying eggs like this!" Jia Zhang said with envy and jealousy.

Why is this damn Chen family living better than their Jia family?

Those old hens should belong to the Jia family!

The aunts couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this. The third aunt couldn't help but say, "Ms. Jia Zhang, can't you hope for something good? You talk like you know how to raise chickens."

This was originally just a casual rebuttal, but when Jia Zhang heard it, she was immediately furious.

"Who said I don't know how to raise chickens? When I was young, I was an expert at raising chickens. I could raise every chicken to be fat!"

"If I say the Chen family's chicken will die of exhaustion, it will definitely die of exhaustion!"

The third aunt said unconvincedly: "What if it didn't die of exhaustion?"

"I'm not tired to death. I...I'll eat this thing!" Jia Zhang raised the sole of the shoe in her hand and shouted loudly.
