Chapter 111 Impact
Shen Qingyue paid back the 3,000 yuan from selling seafood and the 4,800 yuan from selling soda. In addition, the rest was the debt to the steel plant.
The noodles, seasonings, plates, welding stoves, charcoal, etc. that I bought on credit that day totaled 12,000 yuan.
The logistics director asked someone to weld a large awning that day and gave it to her without charging for it.
After paying off all the debts, Shen Qingyue still had 20,000 yuan left in the bank. There was more than 2,000 left, which she kept in hand for emergencies!
Shen Qingyue returned to the featured window and simply tidied up everything.
There was really no place to put the rest of the stuff. Shen Qingyue piled it all onto the car and pulled it back.
You don’t know until you clean up, and you’ll be shocked when you do.
The sticks were piled up like mountains, more than a person's height when stacked up. They were put in cardboard boxes.
There were more than ten boxes of signature sticks alone.
There was also half a truckload of charcoal and seventy stoves, a large pile of iron plates for grilling fish, and so on. Shen Qingyue had taken them all back.
Extend the holiday of the featured window by one day.
The logistics director looked for Shen Qingyue but found nothing. He then approached Chef Li and asked, "Where's Shen Qingyue?"
Chef Li was cooking for 3,000 people. It had been a while since he'd cooked so much, and for a moment he felt a little uncomfortable.
Chef Li was a little surprised when he heard the logistics director's question: "She was here just now?"
The logistics director said, "We've been walking for a while, and there's a sign hanging up. We'll take a break tomorrow too."
Chef Li said sympathetically, "That's normal."
He was already so busy being in charge of the meals for three thousand people that he was dizzy.
Yesterday, Shen Qingyue was in charge of more than 3,000 people, probably as many as 30,000.
Besides, he heard that Shen Qingyue was not only responsible for this one task.
He was in charge of reviewing performances and dispatching personnel inside and outside the venue. He was the only person in charge of the command center at the steel plant.
Even the logistics director had to listen to her instructions yesterday. This is quite stressful for a young person, but she completed it better than anyone expected!
Chef Li looked at the logistics director suspiciously: "Are you here to ask Shen Qingyue to organize another barbecue festival? Oh, this is going to tire me to death."
The awkwardness on the logistics director's face flashed away, and he said, "How could that be? I just came to comfort her. It's normal for her to rest, hehe."
The logistics director was afraid that Chef Li would notice something, so he said from the side, "Hey, go ahead and do your work. I'm going to go home first."
The logistics director then went to report to the factory director.
They also owe the factory employees an internal barbecue party.
The atmosphere of the barbecue festival is in full swing now, and everyone wants to make arrangements as soon as possible. I heard that Director Jiang of the Workers' Union has taken leave.
The logistics director was thinking, why not ask for leave as well?
…
People in the county also enjoyed yesterday's barbecue festival.
Whether you are at work or not, this is what everyone keeps muttering.
Especially the young girls sitting in the office, they said: "The skewers are really delicious."
I had heard of the reputation of barbecue before, but I didn't take it seriously, thinking that what was so delicious about the smoke and fire?
Before I even got close, I couldn't move because of the smell of barbecue.
I waited in line for half an hour and finally got to eat.
The food is worth queuing for.
As a girl, she had never thought she could eat twenty skewers of meat, a handful of vegetables, and a handful of prawns. After this meal, there would be no next time, so she had to eat as much as she could.
"I heard grilled eggplant and grilled fish are also delicious."
The girl from before smiled bitterly and said, "Of course I know that grilled fish looks delicious, but there's really no queue."
"Yesterday, my cousin, a reporter investigating the Xiao Zhang case, arrived just in time for the barbecue festival. He ate from start to finish and was right at the front of the line during the performances. He left today, and he was still thinking about it when he left. He told me to call him if there was another event like this. He came by train. I'd like to let him know, but the problem is, I don't even know when such an event will happen!"
"Really, it would be nice if it happened once a month."
"That was hilarious. Did you eat the three-cent noodles yesterday?"
"I ate it. I also bought a dollar's worth of pickled radish."
"Really? Give me some."
Several little girls were chattering away. One of them remained silent.
When everyone was talking about her, she said, "I'm going to be transferred to the steel mill."
This sentence surprised everyone present: "When did this happen?" Why haven't we heard of it before?
"Just now." They passed the exam and had the opportunity for internal transfer. They used to think that working in the Party and Government Office was good, as it was quiet office work, but after participating in the barbecue festival, their ideas changed.
The other girls present were shocked. Just for a bite?
Is it necessary to be so exaggerated about job transfer?
I clearly thought so in my heart, but why did I feel a hint of envy?
And what he said was: "Sister Zhang, I'll leave the eating of dried radish to you."
"Me too, bring some for me."
"If there's an internal barbecue, call me."
"And me."
…
The provincial newspaper reporter was about to board the train and said to He Zhengchen before leaving, "You really won't come back with me?"
He Zhengchen said: "Yeah."
The provincial newspaper reporter watched as the train whistled into the station. He said, "Actually, I don't want to leave either."
The delicious food and the lively atmosphere yesterday were nowhere to be found in the provincial capital. After spending so much time in a place like the provincial capital, it's no exaggeration to say you'd be reluctant to leave when you stumble upon a place like this.
He Zhengchen said, "Go back. I'll call you next time there's a barbecue festival."
The provincial newspaper reporter was a bit jealous. He Zhengchen was having a good time. Whatever you want, whatever you want: "So what are your plans?"
He Zhengchen said, "I'll send you away and go check out the old house."
Before I could say a few words, the train became stable. These days, getting on a train is all about brute force. People getting off and getting on all at once.
The reporter from the provincial newspaper had no choice but to squeeze into the train with the others. Before he could even stand firmly, the train started moving.
Although I have only been in Siyun County for a few days, I have already developed a deep attachment to this place. I can't bear to leave even before I leave.
The reporter from the provincial newspaper had to calculate whether the savings he had saved from working for a few years were enough to buy a house in Siyun County.
…
The charm of the barbecue festival goes far beyond this. One morning, the county leader received a letter packed in a sack.
In the past, when people below reported this situation, they would summon all the important people in the county in the morning to open the letters from the masses.
Everyone is saying that the barbecue festival is so much fun and they hope it will continue.
