It’s past the time to get off work and it’s already dark.
There were few street lights at this time, and there was still a stretch of dirt road from the steel rolling mill to Sijiu City, so the employees ran home one by one, fearing that they would not be able to see clearly in the dark and might fall on the road.
After all, it just snowed two days ago, so the road is not very easy to walk.
The same goes for the cafeteria.
He Yuzhu packed up his work, looked up and found that everyone was gone.
"These kids are quite active after get off work."
He Yuzhu wiped his hands on his apron.
He took out the pre-packaged lunch box from the drawer, put it in a bag, and prepared to take it back to the pretty widow.
At this time, MCA emerged from nowhere.
He approached He Yuzhu slyly.
"Master, are we still alive tonight?"
He Yuzhu was startled, looked around guiltily, then stared and said.
"Go, go, go, there is no life today. Go and clean up the canteen. The employees will still use it tomorrow."
MCA responded slightly disappointedly.
The so-called work is actually He Yuzhu’s side job.
He is good at cooking.
I can cook both northern and southern cuisines, and they are all delicious and delicious.
I don’t know since when, people started asking him to cook and cook.
The diners enjoyed He Yuzhu's food, the owner was happy, and word of mouth spread.
Slowly.
More and more people asked him to cook for him.
He Yuzhu felt a little overwhelmed, so he called MCA to join him.
Master and disciple go into battle together.
He takes the big end of the money given by the owner, and lets MCA take the small end.
Even so, MCA has made a lot of money these days.
So I kept it in mind.
Otherwise he would have escaped long ago.
After being scolded by his master, Ma Hua languidly walked out and happened to meet Cao Weidong.
"Director Cao, how come you've ordered this? Our kitchen has turned off the fire."
He Yuzhu is also ready to leave.
When I saw Cao Weidong coming, I immediately ran towards him.
"Director Cao, what do you want to eat, I will make a fire for you..."
"No need."
Cao Weidong waved his hand, took out a few money bills from his pocket and handed them over.
"You guys clean up and come with me to make a table. The ingredients are ready. There are about eight or nine diners. I only have one request. The food must be delicious."
Ma Hua’s eyes lit up.
She looked at He Yuzhu expectantly, hoping that he would bring her a dollar.
He Yuzhu put the money into his pocket and quietly twirled it with his fingers.
His face suddenly lit up with joy.
"Don't worry, Director Cao, I will never embarrass you today."
Then he smiled and cursed at MCA.
"Why are you still looking at me? Pack up your things and prepare to leave with me."
"Okay."
MCA is very happy.
The master and apprentice packed up their things and followed Cao Weidong out of the cafeteria.
They were dumbfounded after going out.
I saw an extremely eye-catching car parked in the open space in front of the canteen, its car lights shining bright yellow, like a sharp sword piercing the darkness.
He Yuzhu suddenly saw such a scene and was stunned.
"This is the Red Star sedan?"
He Yuzhu was a little embarrassed.
He felt that even if he didn't charge any money today, it would still be worth taking a ride in the Red Star sedan.
MCA behaved exactly like his master.
Even worse.
Cao Weidong opened the car door.
"Okay, stop looking. Come up quickly. I'll tell you some of the taboos of some guests on the way."
He said hello to the driver.
Then he warned Master and Disciple He Yuzhu carefully.
The master and the disciple nodded their heads like chickens pecking at rice, not daring to show any slights.
The Red Star car drove fast and steadily all the way.
Not much time.
Stopped in front of a family building.
Under the leadership of Cao Weidong, the three of them pushed the door open and entered.
A group of people are sitting in the living room.
He Yuzhu glanced across the living room.
I accidentally discovered that the two factory directors Yang and Li were among them.
In addition, I also met He Yuzhu, a big shot among them, who is Secretary Li, the oldest person in the municipal party committee.
The two factory directors once entertained each other in the canteen of the steel rolling mill.
But at this time, the protagonists are neither the two factory directors nor Secretary Li.
These people sat the two old men in the middle like stars over the moon.
It indicates that they are the protagonists tonight.
He Yuzhu looked at the two old people secretly.
Mentally guessing the other party’s identity.
Secretary Li joked.
"Mr. Cao is finally back. You don't know. We drank tea with the two old gentlemen all afternoon and even went to the toilet several times."
Cao Weidong said gratefully.
"Thank you, Secretary Li. I invited the chef over, and his skills are pretty good."
Cao Weidong listened carefully to the songs composed by Mr. Jiang.
The more I listen to it, the more I like it.
He believed in his heart that the songs composed by this old man would definitely make Ding Qiunan popular.
So Cao Weidong began to mobilize his personal network.
The first is Secretary Li.
Mr. Jiang is also a literary person, so he asked Secretary Li for help.
Secretary Li agreed immediately.
I helped make appointments with several leaders in charge of culture and education in the city, and also invited Mr. Jiang’s partner, Mr. Wei.
Several people are thinking of asking the old man to come out again.
So we worked with the Jiang family and organized such a small family dinner.
Everyone ate and drank at the wine table, and discussed composing songs for the steel rolling mill.
Since it involved the steel rolling mill, Cao Weidong called the two factory directors over again.
Cao Weidong introduced both parties.
Only then did He Yuzhu realize that the old man sitting in the middle was a famous singer in China.
That familiar red song.
It was created by this old gentleman and Mr. Wei beside him.
But recently, due to some criticism, it has been somewhat out of people’s sight.
As for the other diners, except for Secretary Li of the municipal party committee, the rest are also officials from the Wenhua Port.
They are all big shots.
It seems that this is a high-quality banquet.
He Yuzhu walked into the kitchen with a sacred mission.
As soon as he walked into the kitchen, he and Ma Hua exclaimed at the same time.
MCA looked around.
I feel like my eyes are not enough.
Pork, beef, mutton, chicken, fish, shrimp and other ingredients are neatly stacked on the kitchen counter. Next to them are spices such as star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves and various condiments.
There are various washed vegetables in the pots on the floor.
MCA even thinks that these things can be used to prepare a state banquet.
"Luxury, this is too luxurious..."
He spoke tremblingly, and his voice was a little out of tune.
He Yuzhu also let out a light sigh.
His eyes passed directly over the ingredients and towards the man who was busy in the kitchen.
"Nanyi, why are you here?"
Nan Yi glanced at He Yuzhu lightly and said indifferently: "I am also the chef invited by Director Cao. Stop writing. I can't do it alone. Come here quickly."
He Yuzhu felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
He took a deep breath, took out his usual kitchen knife from his backpack, and walked to the cooking table.
In his mind, this is no longer as simple as burning a table.
It's a game.
He Yuzhu can never be compared to Nan Yi.
You must defend your identity as the chef of the steel rolling mill.
.......
At the same time.
Cao Weidong joined everyone in the chat.
After some preparation, we finally talked about composing songs for the steel rolling mill.
Mr. Jiang said lazily.
"You can eat, but you can forget about composing songs."
"Otherwise I won't eat it later, just let me watch."
