In her previous life, Cheng Hui was soft-hearted and muddled, and lived a miserable life.
Under the tears of her stepmother, she gave her job to her sister and went to the countryside for her...
Chapter 39 Is your factory still short of people?
Cheng Hui opened the paper box and showed it to Li Fang, then quickly closed it. There were cupcakes inside, 10 in a box.
The cream designs on each cake were different, with cats, dogs, small animals, flowers, birds, fish and insects. Although they were all white and looked monotonous, Li Fang, who had little experience, was amazed.
Cheng Hui whispered, "This is only half. This cream cake can only be kept for one day. I'm afraid you won't be able to finish it and it will be wasted. How about I bring you the remaining 20 tomorrow?"
Li Fang was immediately surprised. There are 20 more?
An ordinary Weifeng cake only costs 1 yuan each, but this cream cake is worth at least 2 yuan!
She spent 10 yuan to get something worth 80 yuan, what else is there to be dissatisfied about?
Of course Cheng Hui would definitely leave some raw materials, but she still felt that what she left was not enough!
"These are enough, you can keep the remaining 20 to eat! Let my nephew grow some weight!" Li Fang declined.
"Sister, to tell you the truth, I still have half a pound of flour left. You took too much milk, so I have two bottles left. I just drank them this morning, and there are still several eggs left. These are enough for your eldest nephew to eat. The rest can be given to my eldest nephew!" Cheng Hui said with a smile.
"I'll bring it to you tomorrow morning. I have to go and give something to my Aunt Hong. Yesterday she sold me several kilograms of defective sausages and even lent me two meat coupons."
After saying that, he left quickly, carrying the basket to Zhao Hong's counter.
It is impossible for her to be nice to Li Fang alone. She wants to tell everyone that she will be nice to whoever is nice to her!
Li Fang looked at her back and shook her head. How could such a young girl be so honest? Why do you tell people all the truth? She'll have to take better care of herself in the future!
People at several counters nearby saw Li Fang take Cheng Hui's things just now. Although the box was closed quickly, they still saw it!
He immediately turned around and asked, "What good stuff did Xiao Cheng give you? There are so many, don't eat them all by yourself, share them with everyone else!"
Li Fang was about to refuse, but suddenly her eyes turned and she said, "Come on, let me show you something good. I specially asked Xiao Hui to make it for me. It's a small cream cake. I heard that only high-end restaurants in Beijing can make it!
“One pound of flour requires 25 eggs, two bottles of milk, and half a pound of sugar! The ingredients are very sufficient and the taste is super good!”
She more than doubled the amount of raw materials as Cheng Hui had told her.
In this way, wouldn't her elder sister be able to earn more milk and eggs to provide good nourishment for her eldest nephew?
When everyone heard this, they thought she was bragging. What could you make with 25 eggs? Too luxurious!
But after seeing and tasting the little cream cakes, everyone was speechless.
The delicate texture and sweet taste are something they have never tasted in their lives.
"Do you think this box of 10 is worth 20 yuan?" Li Fang asked.
Not to mention that there was a fancy cake next to them, as the second largest department store in the provincial capital, they were used to seeing high-priced items.
"It's worth it! I remember the expensive snacks that used to sell for 20 yuan per pound, but they can't compare to this!" said one person.
Even though her salary couldn't afford dim sum that cost 20 yuan per pound, she had eaten "defective" dim sum that cost 2 yuan per pound.
"Now the cost of this box is half a pound of flour, 12 eggs, and a bottle of milk, a total of 2 yuan! Is it worth it?" Li Fang said.
"Worth it! Then ask Xiao Cheng to make a pound for me tomorrow!" said a salesperson.
"I want one pound too!"
"I want two pounds."
"I want two pounds too?"
"What do you want?" asked the confused salesperson further away. Without waiting for anyone to answer, she shouted, "Whatever it is, don't leave me behind. I want two kilograms too!"
Her family lacks everything!
Li Fang immediately declined: "No, no, my Xiaohui is exhausted. I'll ask her how many kilograms she can make in a day. Do you think this is cabbage? It doesn't take any skills to just pull one out of the field!"
She sells things, and she has realized over the years that the good things are those that cannot be bought!
Cheng Hui didn't know that Li Fang had already earned a lot of food for her at this time, and she was giving "defective products" to Zhao Hong.
"Auntie Hong, our cake factory also produces defective products. When you take the cake out, you accidentally crush it. It doesn't look good, but it doesn't affect the taste. Don't be disgusted."
There was another paper box, containing a majestic cake broken in half.
These are made with the flour that Li Fang gave me yesterday... No one in the food factory has any objection, she can break it however she wants and give it to whoever she wants.
Zhao Hong winked at her and smiled, "You don't need to explain to Aunt Hong. Aunt Hong sells food, how could she not understand this? How much is one pound of your defective products?"
"10 cents per pound." Cheng Hui said.
"No, no! That won't work! It's not enough to cover the cost! The defective Caozi cakes are still 30 cents a pound!"
"That's 0.2 yuan, no more." Cheng Hui said, "But Aunt Hong, our factory hasn't issued us any meat coupons for half a year, and I don't have any meat coupons to return to you. These can replace the two kilograms of meat coupons, right?"
"That's even worse. Let's put things in perspective. Besides, your uncle works in a slaughterhouse. My meat coupons are all unused. I'll give them to you in the future!"
Zhao Hong weighed the box just now and knew that it contained two pounds of defective Weifeng cakes... She immediately took out 50 cents and put it in her pocket.
"Stop arguing with me! Otherwise I will be angry!" Zhao Hong said with a stern face.
Cheng Hui smiled sweetly and said, "Then I would like to thank Aunt Hong!"
From the slaughterhouse? It's really good~
Only then did Zhao Hong smile.
"By the way, Aunt Hong, my sister Fang asked me to make two kilograms of small cream cakes for her yesterday. Would you like to make some too?"
Cheng Hui told her the necessary materials, the same as what she told Li Fang yesterday.
Zhao Hong immediately said, "Yes, yes. I'll go back and get the materials for you at noon!"
When Cheng Hui left Zhao Hong and went to chat with people at other counters, she immediately found out that Li Fang was trying to get her business.
The price is just right~~
She went back to Zhao Hong's counter and told her not to let the cat out of the bag and sell out Li Fang, ruining her business.
"I understand, Aunt Hong understands everything!" Zhao Hong said, "Don't worry, Xiaofang is the daughter of my cousin's husband's cousin. We are all family. I can't destroy her, nor can I destroy yours!"
Cheng Hui went to find Li Fang with peace of mind.
Li Fang quickly told him about the business he was trying to get for her, and as for the things that couldn't be said in public, she just made faces.
"Thank you so much, sister. Not only did you earn me some food and drink, but you also made it easier for me to talk to my colleagues."
Cheng Hui said: "I don't know how to light a fire and can't control the temperature well. I'll have to trouble the master who specializes in lighting fires in our factory. I'll give him some eggs when the time comes, and then he'll be more patient."
She pointed at the dark black cake and said to Li Fang, "One batch needs to be baked for an hour, and the temperature cannot be wrong at all, otherwise the cake will be inedible. Another reason why our Weifeng cakes are expensive is that the yield is low, and one batch is wasted every three or two batches."
"Oh, I forgot about that!" Li Fang immediately regretted: "I shouldn't have cared less about them!"
If I fail, won’t I have to pay for it?
"No need." Cheng Hui comforted her: "As long as the chef who is cooking the fire is more careful and pays close attention to the temperature, he will be fine, so I have to thank him."
"That's right." Li Fang said.
"Also, we burn coal. You know how expensive and hard to get coal. But I use the factory's coal for my private work. Fortunately, there are only a few people in our factory, so everyone is taken care of and they won't gossip." Cheng Hui said.
Li Fang immediately said, "No, it's too little! I have to talk to them again! I have to give you some extra money to buy coal for your factory!"
Cheng Hui finally stopped her after much persuasion: "We don't eat it every day. We just buy some before the New Year to try it out or give it as a gift. I can't always make it for you. It's just this once. Don't worry about it so much."
Li Fang agreed. Even if they wanted to eat eggs casually, they wouldn't eat them like this. Besides, the cost was only a few dollars per pound. Not many people in the department store could afford to eat them casually.
Li Fang turned around and told everyone about Cheng Hui's good deeds~
When everyone heard that it was just this time, those who didn't want to make it had to help make one pound, and those who wanted to make one pound had to make two pounds...
Over there, Guo Dajun and his team have sold out all 500 Weifeng cakes.
There was no one at the table, and they finally came face to face with Sun Qiang, who had a gloomy face.
"Such a big matter, but you actually made the decision privately without telling the factory! Do you still have any organization or discipline? It seems that the organization's decision to expel you is correct!" he sneered.
Guo Dajun and his companions' faces turned pale in an instant.
Gao Zhi supported Cheng Hui and came back.
When they saw her, everyone felt inexplicably determined and looked at her with hope.
Cheng Hui stood next to Sun Qiang and asked with a smile: "Has the organization decided to expel them? That's great."
She tilted her head and asked Lu Ming who was standing next to Liu Lihua: "I heard that you are the deputy director of the provincial food factory. Do you need any more people?"
Lu Ming was stunned, and immediately nodded his head: "Quite!"
Sun Qiang's face turned completely black.
