Chapter 593: "As long as humans exist, they must wear clothes"

"I contacted several tea factories and dried flower factories, and they still have some stock." Zhang Guiyou said: "Don't worry, I asked, they are all clean and edible! They just don't have much taste, just for show."

This will make him feel less guilty and he can tell others openly that this is called "Peach Blossom Pastry"!

Cheng Hui tasted the peach blossom pastry in her hand. It tasted good and did not immediately turn into a pile of crumbs.

"It's a little too sweet," she said.

Zhang Guiyou was stunned: "Our chef said it was too bland... We put less sugar to save costs."

Cheng Hui was stunned for a moment and then remembered that now is not the time when everyone regards sugar as a disaster. Sugar is very precious now. Giving a bag of white sugar or brown sugar to relatives when visiting them is a very impressive thing.

A pound of sugar cost 2 yuan, which is equivalent to 2 days' salary for people in later generations.

Few people can eat so much sugar that their blood sugar level rises. Sugar is a great tonic for people today and is also a life-saving medicine for treating hypoglycemia.

She had originally intended to sell this pastry at a very high price, so let it be a dessert.

When people are no longer willing to eat sugar in the future, she will launch a sugar-free version.

No, this is not her factory, she doesn't need to think so far.

"My taste is light, but the actual taste is really good. You have a good chef." Cheng Hui said.

Zhang Guiyou smiled with relief: "Speaking of our master chef, he is really good. His ancestors were imperial chefs and specialized in making dim sum."

So no matter what flavor or style, loose but not scattered, the other party can achieve it, it’s just that there was no need and no materials before.

I heard that Cheng Hui wanted to poach this person...

"Master, are you accepting apprentices?" she asked.

Zhang Guiyou hesitated for a moment: "You want to send your apprentice over? If it were someone else, I would definitely agree! But this master's family has a lot of rules. They only pass on skills to men, not women, not even daughters-in-law... How about I go back and ask for you?"

"I'm just asking casually." Cheng Hui said, "If he wants to accept disciples, I have two disciples to recommend to him. If he doesn't want to accept them, forget it. I can teach them myself."

It's just that she's not free now.

Zhang Guiyou was stunned: "You can cook? No, you are also a good cook? Can you make snacks?"

The newspapers reported many things about Cheng Hui, but everyone focused on the fact that she was the director of the machinery factory, the furniture factory, the deputy director of the enamel factory, and that she earned so much foreign exchange.

For food factories that were not involved in exports, they were completely unknown at the beginning.

It is now quite famous, but it only sells staple foods and egg tarts. As for the egg tarts, I just learned the recipe from overseas.

Cheng Hui just smiled. It was hard to say which one was better, her cooking skills or her design skills.

"It's no problem to have a few apprentices." Cheng Hui began to comment on this peach blossom cake...

Zhang Guiyou was stunned when he heard this. After a while, he said, "It's exactly the same as what our master said. He's actually not very satisfied with the finished product, but we worked on it for a few days and there were always problems. This is the best one."

Cheng Hui said: "I know, it's mainly because it's too difficult to control the fire. There are too many uncertain factors. If the fire is not enough or too much, it will affect the crispness. Here's a suggestion for you. Don't process the ingredients as a whole. Sesame seeds, peanuts, and flower petals should all be processed separately before putting them in. This will improve the taste."

Actually, the best way would be to use an electric oven, but she didn't want to cook it for them right now.

Zhang Guiyou's eyes lit up: "Okay, okay, this is a really good idea! Director Cheng is really an expert, he can tell whether it works or not just by looking at it!"

He praised it for several minutes before asking, "When will this peach blossom cake be on the market?"

Actually, he wanted to ask if her packaging was ready, as he was anxious to launch it! Rushing to pay the workers.

"I forgot to tell you the price of the packaging last time..."

Before Cheng Hui finished speaking, the secretary stood at the door and said, "Director, two directors from Harbin are here. Their names are Fan Guangyao and Lu Weimin."

"Huh? They actually came in person." Cheng Hui said in surprise: "Ask them in."

Although the two were not her fellow villagers, Zhang Guiyou was.

But her feelings towards the cousins ​​she just recognized after her rebirth are different.

"They must be here to deliver the packaging." Cheng Hui said to Zhang Guiyou, "That's great, you can negotiate the price."

Seeing her surprise just now, Zhang Guiyou already knew what to do.

When Fan Guangyao and Lu Weimin appeared at the door, he immediately greeted them warmly: "Welcome, welcome, warm welcome! The two factory directors have come from afar, thank you for your hard work..."

He praised her for three minutes without repeating himself, and he kept offering her a seat and pouring her tea. The two of them didn't even have time to talk to Cheng Hui.

Cheng Hui discovered that this man had good eloquence and gave people a simple and sincere feeling. He could put aside his pride at critical moments and ask for help when necessary and flatter when necessary.

Fan Guangyao and Lu Weimin were both stunned.

Knowing that Cheng Hui's status in Beijing is different now, and he is no longer the director of a small food factory, is the secretary assigned to him so capable? Just a little older, secretary-general?

Cheng Hui saw the two of them drink a glass of water to catch their breath, then came over and asked with a smile: "Why are the two uncles here?"

The two of them instantly felt more refreshed than after drinking ice water, and she called them uncle!

She looks down on them because she is not rich! They said that Cheng Hui was not that kind of person and that they had worried for nothing!

"We miss little Peggy, let's come and see her!" said Fan Guangyao.

Lu Weimin opened his mouth and closed it again, looking at him, what a liar!

"He wants to snatch the task of printing your new book, so he came here." He said to tease.

They had been keeping an eye on Cheng Hui's movements, and they all knew that she was faking illness! I also know that she published a book for Wang Song, a collection of clothing.

Wang Song went back a few days ago. He brought two large boxes with him and gave them to everyone he met!

Of course, only people in the factory director’s circle could get the books. Two boxes were not enough to distribute, so more people came to Wang Song’s house to ask him to get a few more copies.

What a great stuff! The factory director’s wife felt like she had found a treasure when she got it! I’ve been making clothes like crazy at home recently!

Fan Guangyao discovered the business opportunity here.

He also discovered Cheng Hui's scheming and ambition. "1973 Fashion Collection", there must be "1974...", "1975...", "3000! ""lifetime"! "Eternity"! "As long as humans exist, they have to wear clothes!"

He doesn't have to print for his whole life, he just needs to print until he retires.

He kicked Lu Weimin and said, "How dare you say that to me? You came here for the new machine, too!"

Lu Weimin did not refute, and smiled at Cheng Hui and said, "You promised to make a new machine for me before, so that our paper mill would be superior to all the paper mills in the country! Later, you were too busy and had no time... When will you be free to continue working on it?"

Cheng Hui nodded: "I remember that. Even if you didn't come, I would have called you to come. The machine drawings will be ready soon. When the time comes, I will ask Uncle Yang to make it for you, and you can start production, but..."

Cheng Hui looked at him without saying anything.

Lu Weimin was stunned for a second, then suddenly he said, "Director, deputy director! I'll give you whatever you want! I'm willing to be your deputy director!"

Zhang Guiyou, who was looking dumbfounded nearby...did he learn something?
