Lao Tan was walking on Huanghe Street, feeling depressed. Being laid off was nothing to him, but this time he was laid off suddenly, and he was angry and had the urge to scold his mother.
Mr. Xu's face swayed in front of Lao Tan's eyes, and his words rang in his ears, making him angry. He wanted to see what would happen in the future. He knew what he was doing, and it was difficult for ordinary people to accept it. What were he looking at?
All the rules are in place, just follow them and implement them. If management is so simple, it wouldn’t be called management.
There is indeed a place for development in Guandong, but it seems that it has nothing to do with Lao Tan.
If you are angry, you have to face the reality. If you are laid off, you just want to be laid off. You should continue to look for a job. You cannot stay here.
I called the fourth child and two friends and told them that they were no longer working in Guandong and wanted to pay attention to their work. After making the phone call, I looked up at the sky. There were white clouds, a blue sky, a gentle wind and a beautiful sun. It was a rare good weather.
.
It's okay to go home at this time. I'm in a bad mood and want to find someone to drink with.
Lao Tan thought that Brother Liu would be free at this time, so he would call and ask.
Brother Liu was at the mahjong club, and when he heard Lao Tan talk about drinking, he readily agreed, and went out with Xiaofeng to wait for Lao Tan while his mother was making noodles.
Xiaofeng, thirty-eight years old, has a handsome face and a slim figure. She lives in the same community as Brother Liu. She came back from Yunnan last year. She has nothing to do at home. She is not very keen on mahjong, but she is not interested in being alone, so she asks Brother Liu to lead her.
Go and join in the fun.
Xiaofeng has a very good personality, a bit like an old man. He is carefree and gets along well with everyone. He has been involved in society since he was young. He is also a figure in Santaizi and is familiar with some older brothers. He has been living in Yunnan in recent years.
I made a lot of money by bringing goods, but now I'm done with it.
He is very sociable and loves to drink. He and Brother Liu would have a few drinks every day, and then they would go home feeling dizzy.
Brother Liu ordered in advance Lao Tan's favorite spicy stir-fried haggis and shredded pork noodles with pepper, plus a plate of dried tofu with pepper. Xiaofeng ordered fried chicken rack and a bottle of white wine.
After Lao Tan arrived, Brother Liu introduced Xiaofeng to him, and the three of them started drinking.
"You're doing so well, why don't you stop?" Brother Liu asked Lao Tan.
Lao Tan said: "The family also has a head chef, and I have been taking it with me since I went there. The boss wants the head chef to continue to take charge now that he is done with it, so that he can get a better salary."
Brother Liu was a little angry after hearing this, and said: "This boss is not particular, he just kills the donkey, there is no way to do things like this." Then he complained to Lao Tan, "You are also affordable, you can take care of me when I ask you to teach the apprentice to starve to death."
, Countless."
Old Tan smiled and took a sip of wine.
"Brother, are you a chef?" Xiaofeng asked Lao Tan.
"Yes, cook." Lao Tan replied.
Brother Liu said: "My brother is a chef. Do you know the Guandong family of Wanfangmen? He is the head chef there and has just quit."
"Oh, you are the head chef of a Guandong family. You are awesome. I ate there a few days ago and it was very good. My favorite is their water tofu, which is tender, and the fried meat sauce, which is very fragrant.
"Xiao Feng said.
"It's okay." Lao Tan said, the last thing he wanted to mention now was the Guandong people.
"I heard you mean to bring out a head chef. Now the boss doesn't need you, right?" Xiaofeng didn't open any pot.
"Yeah." Lao Tan grinned.
"Fuck, you're so ungrateful. What's the point of following a boss like this? There's nothing to be afraid of if you have skills. You can make money wherever you go. My friend works in a restaurant and I'll introduce you to him." Xiaofeng said angrily.
"Thank you." Lao Tan said.
Brother Liu said to Xiaofeng: "If you really want to have a friend who works in a restaurant, introduce him to my brother. My brother is good at cooking and is good at cooking. You have also eaten at Guandong people's houses."
Xiaofeng said confidently: "I've been in contact for the past two days, but it's still hard to find a job."
Seeing that she said it easily and didn't sound like bragging, Brother Liu and Lao Tan both believed it.
The three of them were drinking and chatting. In the middle of the drink, Xiaofeng's phone rang. It was a friend asking her to go drink.
"I'm drinking right now. If you don't go, you'll have to drink some other time. If not, you guys come here." Xiaofeng said.
Her friend had already ordered food at another restaurant and asked her to bring Brother Liu and Lao Tan there to save her embarrassment.
Of course Brother Liu and Lao Tan can't go. It would be embarrassing to go if they don't know each other well.
Xiaofeng was a sweet-natured person. The three of them had been drinking together, but it was not the case to leave on her own, so she paid the bill and forced the two of them to leave the restaurant together.
The three of them took a taxi and walked north along Huanghe Street. They passed Wanfangmen and went up to the Third Ring Bridge. They got off the Third Ring Bridge and passed by the Normal University, the School of Finance and Economics, and the School of Aerospace Industry. Finally, they stopped at the west gate of the North Campus of the School of Administration.
In front of the Dandong Seafood restaurant.
It's called Xiaohaishei, and it's quite large, with an area of 500 square meters upstairs and downstairs.
As soon as you enter the door, there is a ten-meter-long seafood exhibition stall. Pickled small seafood are neatly displayed on the conspicuous first floor. There are braised shrimps, braised river crabs, braised sea crabs, soy conches, braised clams, braised Fushou snails, and braised sea snails.
Shrimps. There are all kinds of shrimps, and they are well braised. Just looking at them makes you want to eat them.
There are bass, yellowtail fish, sea croaker, octopus, turbot, opium fish, and wild loach in the fish tank.
Small seafood includes conches, clams, red clams, clams, clams, razor clams, scallops, whitebait, oysters, scallops, sea urchins, etc.
It is indeed a Dandong seafood dish.
Xiaofeng's two friends have already ordered dishes, and the table is full of seafood.
Through Xiaofeng’s introduction, the petite girl with short hair named Yuan Guifang, and the tall and bold-looking girl named Qi named Qi Lifen. The two of them were very incompatible together, one was shy and the other was big and thick.
Yuan Guifang is the person in charge of external development of Jinxing Copper, a star enterprise in the province. She has just returned from an overseas inspection and is about to go to a production base in Inner Mongolia to be responsible for market development.
Qi Lifen, a Shandong native, is in the copper wire wholesale business and has a customer relationship with Yuan Guifang. They have been dating for a long time, nearly twenty years, and are good sisters.
Xiaofeng and Yuan Guifang were classmates. They grew up in the same campus when they were young. They were good friends and besties.
The five people got to know each other and sat down again.
While drinking, Xiaofeng asked Yuan Guifang what she wanted to do at the production base in Inner Mongolia. Yuan Guifang said she didn't know and was waiting for notification from her superiors. She originally planned to retire, but her superiors asked her to build a market there before retiring.
"I won't go out to run the market anymore. The company bought the land there and built the largest copper products trading center in the Northeast. I just go over and run the park. I don't care about anything else. I'm older and there are certain things that I can do if I'm young and run."
Do some logistics work."
Xiaofeng joked: "Would you like a housekeeper? I'll be your housekeeper."
Sister Yuan said: "Come on, go ahead. I heard that there are no homes in that place for forty miles, and the toilet is in a wild field."
"That's good, no one will care about your naked butt." Xiaofeng said with a smile.
"If you keep your butt naked, mosquitoes will bite you to death." Sister Yuan said.
"If you bite, bite. Whoever kisses is not a kiss."
Everyone started laughing.
Some people in the Guandong kitchen were a little puzzled by Lao Tan's sudden departure. Why did he stop working when he was doing a good job? They were talking to each other with such confusion.
Li Zhongqing, Xu Jun, and Li Xu stood on the stove and talked about this matter.
"Master Tan was a very nice person. It's a pity that he left." Li Zhongqing said with regret, patted Li Xu and asked, "Do you know why you left?"
Li Xu shook his head and said, "I don't know. This is all decided by the top management. How could I know."
"You're not the chef, you don't even know this." Li Zhongqing said half-jokingly.
"What kind of chef am I? I can't stand it." Li Xu said.
Xu Jun said: "In our family, good people don't last long. I guess the boss is worried about money ------"
"It's possible." Li Zhongqing agreed, then looked at Xu Jun with admiration and said with a smile: "I find you are smarter now."
"Go away——" Xu Jun cursed.
Pastry room.
"Boss, why don't Master Tan quit?" Wang Xiaoqi, the fat girl, asked Wang Shulan.
"I don't know, it's too sudden." Wang Shulan said.
"Master Tan is such a nice person------" Wang Xiaoqi sighed.
"It's not time for you to hate him." Wang Shulan smiled.
"Hey - I love and hate him at the same time. To be honest, I'm really afraid of him. When I look at him, I feel like I've been caught stealing again. I don't even dare to look at him - but Master Tan is really afraid of him.
Yes, it looks fierce, but it’s actually not. You see how well they have cured the pimple soup ------ I admire you." Wang Xiaoqi said sincerely.
"Hey, let's work at our house. There are some things that we are not involved in. Just do your job well and you will have everything." Wang Shulan sighed and stopped asking everyone to continue the discussion.
Wang Hong looked ugly and decided to leave after her salary was paid and not stay here for another day.
Yuan Hua and Zhou Hongyou were smoking outside the kitchen.
"Do you know why Master Tan left?" Yuan Hua asked.
"Ask me? Where can I go?" Zhou Hongyou said angrily.
"I didn't see that Wang Gang didn't show up now." Yuan Hua said with some profound meaning.
"I'm sorry. Master Tan is gone and he will take over. It's obvious."
"You can do it. You can pick up the entire kitchen. Master Tan has made selfless sacrifices and taught you all the farm work."
Zhou Hongyou took a long puff of cigarette and said, "If you wait for two days, please treat Master Tan to a meal."
"Call me when you invite me," Yuan Hua said.
"What the hell do you call me, you spend money."
"Both of us spend money differently. What's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine, right-"
"You -" Zhou Hongyou shook his head in disgust and said, "I have learned nothing from Master Tan for a long time. You will be like this for the rest of your life."
