Shen Qingyue returns to the 1980s. In her previous life, she was exploited by her maternal family, and all three sisters were harmed by their grandparents. Reborn, she refuses to be a scapegoat.
Chapter 59 Director Jiang is embarrassed
Early in the morning, a female colleague brought an electric rice cooker to the company and placed it under her workstation. The colleagues passing by were all laughing to death!
"Are you going to cook at work?"
Xu Xiaoran said: "Cook spicy hot pot."
Old-fashioned rice cookers can also be used as electric skillets.
This pot was too small when I bought it, and it has been stored at home with no use.
But it’s just right for cooking spicy hot pot.
Hearing Xu Xiaoran say this, the others quickly came over and asked, "What? You can actually buy spicy hot pot."
Now the whole county knows that there is a new dish called Malatang in the steel plant canteen.
Many people come here because of its reputation.
People like them who work in the office are far away and can only sigh in despair.
Who would have thought that a colleague at work would actually take it.
Come over quickly and take a look.
When I opened it, there was a bag of noodles, a bag of vegetables, and a bag of seasonings. It looked like a lot.
Xu Xiaoran said: "This was ordered by my brother's company. I begged for it for a long time."
His brother had to give away all three bags. After much persuasion, she finally managed to get one bag.
"I want to try it too." said the girl in the office.
Others had the same idea, but were too embarrassed to speak up.
Xu Xiaoran was a generous girl, and she took the initiative to say, "Okay, let's try this spicy hot pot and see what its charm is."
Finally it was noon. I put water in the rice cooker.
Xu Xiaoran washed the vegetables and noodles again with clean water.
Girls are more concerned about cleanliness and always wash the food themselves before they feel at ease.
She took out each leaf and checked them one by one, and they were all clean.
I rinsed it with clean water and soon the water boiled.
Just follow my brother's instructions, rinse it with water, add seasoning and half a spoonful of soup.
The moment the spicy hot pot seasoning was poured out, an overbearing aroma rushed out.
This caused people in the next office to stick their heads out to look at them.
"What's this for?"
Xu Xiaoran said: "Spicy hot pot."
A lot of people in the office came in again after hearing this: "Ah, this is spicy hot pot, let me see."
Once the noodles and vegetables are evenly mixed, the rich sauce will wrap around every piece of food, doubling the temptation.
The people around were holding their small bowls and waiting eagerly.
Xu Xiaoran asked everyone to take a little!
Even those people from other offices have it, and we can split it in half when we meet.
Xu Xiaoran was so full that she was shocked after taking just one bite.
I've never eaten this before, and it's so delicious.
Others also expressed their admiration one after another.
"Ahhh, the spicy hot pot lives up to its reputation."
"I want to eat more!" The small bite just now was not enough.
“The potato chips are so delicious.”
"Of course I did. I used to hate potato chips, but now I realize it's not that I don't like them, it's that they weren't tasty enough!"
These people didn't leave after eating the spicy hot pot. They looked at Xu Xiaoran and said, "Xiaoran, can you ask your brother to buy some for us? We'll pay for it."
Xu Xiaoran was also a little shocked.
These young girls who work in offices and have decent jobs are the urban beauties of the county.
During their rest time, they would take the train to the provincial capital to eat delicious food.
She is extremely picky about taste, but now she comes to her and says good things about this spicy hot pot?
Xu Xiaoran also wanted to help these young sisters, but she still had some rationality in her heart: "It's not that I don't agree, it's that the people who make spicy hot pot don't have enough for themselves."
She stole a pack from his brother, and his brother still "owes" it to his childhood friends, neighbors and others.
If she can't even guarantee her own spicy hot pot, how can she expect to take on some extra "spicy hot pot debt"?
The people around said, "I didn't know Malatang was so delicious before. Please, I'm willing to wait, even if it costs extra."
"It's so delicious, I really want to buy a few for my family to try. My mom has definitely never tasted this."
“It has vegetables and noodles, and it looks healthy.”
Everyone came over to Xu Xiaoran and said, "Please, please." When a girl starts to act coquettishly, it's really hard to resist.
Xu Xiaoran finally surrendered: "I'm just asking for you, it may not work."
"Oh, just ask for me."
"Can you give some advice to the owner of this spicy hot pot restaurant? It would be great if they could move to a small shop in the county."
…
Shen Qingyue prepared 10,000 servings, and fewer people came to buy raw buns at noon today.
They have been busy for so many days and can finally take a break.
As a result, Shen Qingyue's heart skipped a beat when she saw Director Jiang of the Workers' Union again.
Director Jiang is an old hand. When he saw Shen Qingyue, his smiling face fell and became awkward.
Director Jiang said, "Hey, Miss Shen, don't be like this. I feel embarrassed to talk to you when you are like this."
Shen Qingyue asked, "How many more do you want?" Didn't he give 10,000 copies before?
Director Jiang was speechless. As expected, he had been guessed by the other party.
But now that things have come to this, I can only bite the bullet and do it: "We are still short of 10,000 fans, and the supply is limited."
No one in the factory who could buy four bought three.
He had a hunch that 10,000 copies was definitely not everyone's limit.
Director Jiang didn't dare to let everyone report the number freely. Otherwise, if there really were tens of thousands of orders for spicy hot pot, Shen Qingyue would probably not pay any attention to him.
Shen Qingyue said, "Mala Tang is just a warm-up to improve everyone's taste. We'll mainly serve boxed lunches later. I didn't expect everyone to like Mala Tang so much."
Shen Qingyue guessed that everyone might like it, but no matter how much they liked it, it couldn't be eaten.
Wouldn’t you get tired of eating it at noon every day and buying raw buns at night?
Director Jiang said, “The spicy hot pot made by Miss Shen is really delicious.”
As the director of the workers' union, he was asked by many relatives and friends to help buy Malatang for them. I don't know which bastard promoted Malatang so well.
Now everyone in the county is relying on the steel plant to buy.
And now more and more people would rather queue for 40 minutes just to have a taste of this.
In terms of determination, people in the steel plant can't actually grab the slots.
Otherwise, the protests wouldn't have reached him.
Shen Qingyue said, "Okay, I'll do it for a few more days." She directly put in the remaining amount.
Director Jiang breathed a sigh of relief.
But Shen Qingyue still needed help with something, and asked if she could settle her meal ticket money.
Before, two hundred a day was not enough to purchase goods.
Now the payment for the beverages is over 700 yuan, which means 480 yuan for 100 boxes.
The logistics director has been owing money for seasonings and other things. He has money, but it's all tied up in meal tickets.
Director Jiang only needed Shen Qingyue to agree to make spicy hot pot dumplings. As for the rest, he said, "I'll put my pride aside and talk to the accountant about early reimbursement."
Shen Qingyue carried the small box and went straight to the accountant.
After arriving, Director Jiang sent several people over to provide support and help.
I tied a small rubber band around each 100-yuan meal ticket, and the total amount I counted was over 6,400 yuan.
The accountant directly took out six and a half stacks of money, each of which was a ten-dollar bill.
The money is all brand new, and it feels so good to touch it.
Shen Qingyue had never seen so much money!
I went to the logistics department to settle the bill. I owed them 1,800 yuan during this period.
The expenses for seasonings, tableware, etc. were all paid on credit from the logistics department.
I went to the beverage factory and not only paid back the 700 yuan I owed, but also ordered 200 boxes of beverages worth a total of 960 yuan!
There were still 2,940 left, and after paying the final 1,200 for the house, there were still a little over 1,700 left.
