Chapter 54: The State-Owned Factory Canteen Needs Expansion

Shen Qingyue was busy until the factory started working in the afternoon, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally they wanted to eat some spicy hot pot, but who would have thought that the raw buns would become too hot.

They were all bought up, leaving nothing for them, not even a root or a leaf.

Shen Qingyue took a five-yuan meal ticket and ate in the cafeteria. She ordered a few dishes, four-happiness meatballs, white rice, and other things, and sat down to eat!

It was Shen Qingyue’s first time eating in the cafeteria, and it was okay.

Chef Li from the cafeteria watched Shen Qingyue eating their food, wanting to say something but stopping himself. He wanted to go up and ask them several times how they felt, but he couldn't bring himself to do it.

In the kitchen, two apprentices were eating spicy hot pot. It was really delicious.

The apprentice distributed the spicy hot pot to everyone. After the others tasted it, they all had complicated expressions.

No wonder so many people love to eat it.

Shen Qingyue collected the plastic bowls, beverage bottles, and other things, cleaning and tidying up what needed to be cleaned.

Finally, count the meal tickets and go to the finance department to exchange them.

Shen Qingyue knew that sales were good today, but she was still shocked by the number.

After adding yogurt, drinks, and fresh food bags, the bill actually came to more than 1,300 yuan.

More than ever before.

It seems that Malatang made the right move.

After exchanging the money, go back quickly and stock up on things like dry cornmeal, dry wide noodles, etc. It doesn’t matter how much you stock up.

…

Malatang, a cross-era product, is extremely popular.

Those who made the raw dumplings planned to take them home and let their families try them.

At home, you can also add some of your favorite foods, such as potato chips, and put more of them. One bowl of noodles can be cooked into two large bowls!

Although the cooking time is not as good as Shen Qingyue’s, the seasoning packet is still there.

This seasoning packet is delicious even when dipped into shoe soles.

Everyone was shocked: "Brother, is your factory still hiring?"

The state-owned factory is indeed a state-owned factory. Not only are the wages and benefits good, but the canteen is also very delicious.

"It's okay, our cafeteria has new soda and yogurt!" Her brother couldn't help showing off.

"Ahhhh, I want to go." She was a serious high school student. When she filled out the application form, she wanted to work in an office, so she applied for the Education Bureau.

Her brother advised her to work in a state-owned factory, but she refused. Now she really regrets it.

Their unit also has a cafeteria, but the food is just average.

Her brother said that it tastes better when it’s freshly cooked!

She couldn't imagine it. It was delicious enough now, so what would it taste like if it was cooked fresh?

His brother said, "That can't be helped. When you have a break, you can come to our cafeteria to eat."

"We'll take an hour break at noon. How about this? Can you also bring me some uncooked food tomorrow? I'll pay you."

His brother said: "This..."

Her sister understood immediately and said, "Next time I'll introduce you to one of our beautiful single girls."

"make a deal."

…

The next day, many outsiders, tempted by the spicy hot pot steamed buns, came to their factory to eat.

In fact, the steel mill has never prohibited this practice. Even if you don’t have a meal ticket, you can pay to buy it.

The spicy hot pot cooked and prepared by Shen Qingyue is indeed much more delicious than raw dumplings!

The people at the state-owned factory were both sweet and burdened: "Who on earth told the outsiders about our treasure trove of special features? The queue was already long enough, and now there are even more people."

"It's because our factory's spicy hot pot is so delicious that we sold out all the soda today."

"My childhood friend also told me that if the factory is hiring, he should keep an eye out for it because he wants to apply."

"My sister asked me to help her make the sheng bao, but today all the sheng bao are gone. Who is trying to steal the spicy hot pot from us?"

"Ahhh, I was so happy to agree to buy it for you yesterday, but I regret it so much today. I don't know how I'm going to face you when I get back!"

A colleague in the workshop said, "You deserve it. Who told you to show off? If you didn't show off, this wouldn't happen."

Some people also went to the workers' union to find Director Jiang and asked him to set some restrictions in the future so that people from outside the factory would not be allowed to come to the cafeteria to compete with them for the spicy hot pot.

Director Jiang hadn't been to the cafeteria for just one day, and he didn't expect Shen Qingyue to cause such a big commotion. He quickly went to report to the factory director.

Upon hearing this, the factory director smiled and said, "This is a good thing. As a large steel plant, we must act like a large plant."

When the factory director asked Shen Qingyue to move in, he never thought that Shen Qingyue could give them such a big surprise.

Since it's so popular, the factory has to find ways to help. "Talk to the logistics director. Isn't the Malatang place a little small?"

Director Jiang said: "Besides, it is said that Miss Shen's boxed lunch is also unique. Now it is impossible to make boxed lunch when making spicy hot pot."

The factory director said, "There was a lot of waste in the cafeteria before, and people didn't like to eat. These workers are our treasures. Only by ensuring they eat well and feel safe can they better serve the country."

Besides, the big factory has a decent cafeteria, which can be used as a highlight when meetings are held among the various factories.

The factory director was very supportive of Shen Qingyue's plan to reform the state-owned factory restaurant.

Director Jiang of the Workers' Union was also a smart man. Upon hearing this, he quickly went to the logistics director to discuss and study the matter.

The logistics director said: "If we expand the space for Miss Shen, I'm afraid these people in the kitchen will have some ideas."

Director Jiang said, "That can't be helped. It's their fault for not being as skilled as others! Hey, buddy. This is a key project that even the factory director cares about."

The logistics director said, "How about this? Let's renovate the cafeteria and split it into two small buildings. That way, the upper and lower floors can be staggered. Wouldn't that make the space bigger? And then no one can say anything."

Upon hearing this, Director Jiang said, "Renovation will cost money."

The logistics director said, "Let's open up the layout. We're a profitable factory, and we still have over 300,000 yuan left to spend. So, the large vacant lot to the west can be turned into a cafeteria, and the original cafeteria site can be demolished and turned into a staff kindergarten."

Increase convenience facilities and spend some money at the same time.

Director Jiang knew that logistics was the God of Wealth who brought in money, but he had never had any idea of ​​this before.

Until now, he would rebuild the canteen just because it was too small. Apart from the factory director, he is the only one in the factory who can boast such grandeur.

The factory learned they were going to build a new canteen, this time a two-story building, and that they were going to restructure it. They were asked if they were willing to take on the contract. They were given priority. If they weren't willing, they would still follow the factory's lead.

Shen Qingyue directly contracted two places, a Malatang window and a boxed lunch window.

The factory even encouraged her to take on more. Shen Qingyue was a person who dared to think and act. This was a rare opportunity. It was not always possible to get into a large state-owned factory like this. With great ambition, she signed another one, making a total of three windows!

Chef Li asked around, and he was actually an old employee of the factory. When he learned that Shen Qingyue had directly contracted three windows, he returned home from work with a gloomy face.

Seeing this, his wife hurriedly asked him what was wrong.

Chef Li told his wife the whole story, then said, "My senior brother is the same. Why would he mess with her for no reason?"

Now that’s great. Not long after she arrived, the factory is planning to expand the canteen for her.

"I think it won't be long before this state-owned factory is completely under her control."
