There are many more vegetarian options, such as stir-fried cabbage with glass noodles, stir-fried Chinese cabbage, and green beans and eggplant.

These raw materials are all grown by the canteen itself, so the cost is very low.

The only thing that costs money at lunch is the meat.

The cafeteria charges one cent per person per meal, totaling three yuan per month.

Reporter Chen could certainly see the value: "A meal like this would cost a dollar at a restaurant."

Lin Yu waved her hand and said, "It's not that expensive. We cook in large batches, so the cost is not high."

Lin Yu didn't expect the cafeteria to make money.

I just wanted to improve the meals for the factory workers.

The workers could naturally see how good the lunch was; some even saved the meat and vegetables to take home for their children.

Some of these families were in dire straits, so Lin Yu turned a blind eye to their plight.

As long as it doesn't affect your work, feel free to take it back.

They actually added some lard to their vegetarian dishes, so at least they had some oil in them.

Reporter Chen: "Director Lin is very thoughtful."

Lin Yu has done a great job by being so considerate of the workers.

As reporter Chen looked at the workers, a bright smile spread across his face; many questions no longer needed to be asked.

This factory has given them so much.

Everyone is considering their needs.

Reporter Chen also listened to Lin Yu's idea, saying that if possible, she would like to set up a nursery.

Now that Lianhua Brigade has its own primary school, if it also has a nursery, it will be no different from a factory in the city.

Lin Yu smiled sheepishly: "It's just an idea, please don't tell anyone."

It's best not to let people know about things that haven't been accomplished.

She only mentioned it when reporter Chen asked her about her future plans.

Reporter Chen understood: "Yes, I know. Once your ideas are all successfully realized, we'll do a follow-up report then."

He had a feeling that if the report about the factory were published, many people would be interested.

The reporter's main task was to provide follow-up coverage, so Lin Yu had no reason to refuse and naturally agreed.

After lunch, Lin Yu took the reporter to see the situation of several nearby brigades, and then chatted with a few employees for a while after returning.

In the afternoon, the two prepared to leave.

The newspaper sent a car to pick them up, and the two were a little reluctant to leave.

The driver, who had been interviewed by many reporters, was a little confused as to why these two people were so reluctant to leave this place after only two days.

What Chen, the reporter, was reluctant to leave was that he felt there were still many stories worth uncovering about the Lianhua Brigade, the food factory, and several nearby brigades.

The photographer was reluctant to leave because the scenery was beautiful, the children were lively and adorable, and this rural scene was unforgettable for him.

So much so that when he returned to Beicheng and was choosing photos to accompany his reports, he found it difficult to decide which ones to include.

In the end, reporter Chen made the final decision and chose a group photo of the food factory employees.

The theme of the report is: Educated youth members work together to make the commune-run factory shine.

The article first introduces the factory and its products, then explains the important responsibilities of the educated youth in the factory, and finally describes how the factory helped the entire commune's production brigade to strive for progress.

After reading the article, the newspaper director exclaimed in admiration: "Well written! This factory is a model of cooperation and mutual benefit between our educated youth and commune members. Put it on the front page!"

Reporter Chen was naturally pleased that his article was featured on the front page.

The warm hospitality shown to them by the Lianhua Brigade and Director Lin's family was well received.

He had even begun to imagine how happy the members would be when they saw the report.

He also hopes that this report will have a better impact on the factory and the Lianhua Brigade.

Of course, it will take several days for the article to be reviewed, proofread, printed, and then distributed.

For a while, the people of Lianhua Brigade couldn't see this article praising them.

Lin Yu initially paid attention to the newspaper, but knowing it wouldn't be published so soon, she gradually stopped.

In addition to the reported events, the food factory still needs to ship products.

Canned lychees and nectarines have been bestsellers for two years, and Lin Yu wants to develop new products.

She thought of pineapples from the south.

Lin Yu remembered that she once ate pineapple in the south, which was soaked in salt water and had a very unique taste.

It is said that eating too much of this will cut your mouth.

They've never seen this kind of fruit before.

Based on Lin Yu's experience, this kind of canned food shouldn't taste bad.

So she decided that her next task was to develop new products.

This time, she wasn't the one going down for the inspection; the factory has now set up a purchasing team.

This task should be left to them.

Of course, she remembered that she had promised Ou Manqing that she would let her go home to visit again if she had the chance.

So this time, in addition to the purchasing team, Ou Manqing from the finance department and Li Dahui from the sales department will also go to Guangcheng.

The pineapples are not grown in Guangcheng; you need to go west to Xuwen.

That area has always been known as the "Sea of ​​Pineapples".

Transporting the fruit from there will not be easy, but Lin Yu still hopes that the purchasing team can overcome the difficulties as much as possible and complete this purchasing task.

Bao Decai, the head of the purchasing team entrusted with an important task by the factory director, is a member of the Dongfeng Brigade.

Because their brigade regularly supplies raw materials for dried fruit to food factories, Bao Decai worked as a liaison for a year.

Afterwards, seeing that he was clever enough, Lin Yu asked him if he wanted to work in the factory as a purchasing agent.

After discussing it with the team leader, Bao Decai went to work at the food factory.

Now, he has become the head of the purchasing team.

Lin Yu had already warned them about the difficulties they would face before seeing them off, and Bao Decai was well aware of them.

But he demanded of himself that he complete the task perfectly and not disappoint the factory director who had high hopes for him.

Seeing that he was too tense, Li Dahui patted him on the shoulder: "Don't be so anxious. We'll solve any problems together."

Li Dahui's years of experience in sales have made him increasingly eloquent. Looking at Bao Decai, who is younger than him and still looks quite naive, he tries his best to comfort and encourage him.

This was also a task assigned to him by Lin Yu, who hoped that he could help Bao Decai.

Seeing Li Dahui so calm and composed, Bao Decai unconsciously stopped feeling so worried.

Since even Li Dahui, a veteran employee of the factory, is so confident, it means that things are not that difficult.

He shouldn't scare himself unnecessarily.

Seeing that the boy had stopped pacing around after being comforted by Li Dahui, Ou Manqing even said to Li Dahui:

"You're really amazing now."

At this moment, Yuanyuan in her arms looked up at Li Dahui and said, "Amazing, amazing."

In front of his wife and daughters, Li Dahui was less serious; his smile even had a slightly goofy quality.

"It's nothing, I just told him not to worry too much."

But it was his composure that put Bao Decai, that young upstart, at ease.

Ou Manqing found it amazing. Unlike her previous life, in this life she watched Li Dahui, who was stuttering and had low self-esteem, gradually grow up.
