After working for such a long time, Zeng Wangcai ate in the cafeteria and was about to vomit.
After seeing the real steel mill canteen, he realized that reality is completely different from the TV series. The castrated version of the TV series did not have the full picture of the canteen. Most of the shots were placed in the back kitchen, and the role of Sha Zhu's cooking skills was exaggerated.
In fact, there are many chefs and employees in the real steel rolling mill canteen, and the food in the big pot is not delicious. It is complete nonsense that the food tastes much better after being cooked by Shazhu.
Sha Zhu is just a cook, not a cooking god. He can just cook dishes in a fancy way. But in this time of material scarcity, how can he make the big pot of dishes taste?
What's more, there are so many employees in the steel rolling mill, it is impossible to rely on Sha Zhu for all the dishes.
Therefore, what Zeng Wangcai ate these days was hard to describe. It was not that he was picky, he could eat either mixed flour steamed bread or two-grain steamed buns as the staple food, but he really couldn't eat any vegetables.
"What season is it? You still have salted fish at home?" Colleagues in the same department were all surprised.
Zeng Wangcai explained: "The little stock for the New Year was eaten up eight hundred years ago. This is what I caught while fishing a while ago. It's too hard to eat meat now, so I can't learn how to go fishing. I didn't expect to have good luck and get quite a good catch, hahaha."
But the truth is, the salted fish in their house has not come out yet, and what he is putting in his lunch box now is the canned fish from his space.
"You know how to fish? How much did you catch? Where did you catch it?"
"Recently I've seen a lot of people go fishing in rivers and lakes during their breaks, but there are many people going, but not many actually catch any fish."
"That's because it's impossible, right? I went there yesterday and caught a carp weighing more than a pound. I stewed it that night and it was delicious..."
The topic of colleagues instantly shifted to fishing and hunting. No one cared how many fish Zeng Wangcai caught. In their opinion, one or two kilograms was good, five or six kilograms was very good, and more than ten kilograms was a rare achievement.
No one dares to imagine the figure of several hundred kilograms.
Zeng Wangcai didn't explain and just joined in the laughter. It was just a chat, it would be nice to talk about topics that everyone would like to hear. These colleagues were not key figures, so there was no need to waste time talking.
Zeng Wangcai's focus is on the cafeteria. He knows that with Sha Zhu's personality, he will definitely not be able to help but go to the cafeteria director today. If the cafeteria director cannot solve the problem, he will most likely go to Li Huaide.
In fact, Sha Zhu, who does not have such a high status in the cafeteria now, went to the cafeteria director's office after finishing his work.
He knocked on the door seriously and went in.
But before he could open his mouth, the canteen director spoke first: "He Yuzhu, you've come at the right time. Director Li will be entertaining guests later and has specifically asked you to cook. Don't be distracted."
Director Song was a young man wearing a pair of glasses. He looked at Sha Zhu with no expression but with some disgust in his eyes.
In fact, Director Song had long disliked Sha Zhu. If Li Huaide had not thought that Sha Zhu's cooking was good, he would have made things difficult for Sha Zhu. It was because Sha Zhu relied on his good cooking skills in the cafeteria and was very harsh in his words, criticizing whoever he caught.
"Director, Deputy Director Li is having a reception today? How come I didn't know about it?" Sha Zhu was slightly stunned.
This is the difference between Sha Zhu and others. Most other employees call Li Huaide Director Li. If you remove the word "deputy", you can say Sha Zhu is stupid, or you can say he is upright. Anyway, everyone has their own opinion.
In short, Director Song doesn't like Sha Zhu. As a leader, how could he have subordinates who always go against him?
"I'm notifying you now that the guests will be here soon, so hurry up and cook." Director Song said impatiently.
"Well, whoever wants to cook this dish can cook it, but I can't cook it anyway." Sha Zhu thought, isn't this a fucking opportunity? He quickly took advantage of the situation and said, "You know that Deputy Factory Director Li is a good talker. It's no problem for me to cook, but there's no vegetables. Go and take a look at the canteen warehouse, there are only potatoes and eggplants, and there's no meat in the freezer. How can I cook this dish?"
"That's not right, Silly Zhu." Director Song was so anxious that he changed his address. "I remember Hu Guangyong bought 20 kilograms of meat and three chickens last week. Who ate them?"
"You also know that it was last week. Our factory only had one director?" Sha Zhu counted on his fingers. "Not to mention the meat, Director Yang used one to entertain guests, Deputy Director Nie came once, and Deputy Director Li also came once, so three chickens are gone..."
Director Song was really anxious: "Where is Hu Guangyong?"
"I don't know. This guy didn't come this morning. I said Hu Guangyong doesn't know how to purchase. Director, if you keep him around, our factory workers will starve to death sooner or later."
"Don't mention these extra things. If there's no chicken, there must be meat. I remember there's also fish. These two things are almost enough."
"The fish and chicken are gone, but we still have about two pounds of meat. Director, I'm not saying this, but the employees are complaining that there's no oil in the dishes in our cafeteria lately, so they're always making trouble."
"If anyone dares to cause trouble, notify the security department to arrest them. If they rebel, they will..."
No matter what, as the saying goes, a good cook cannot cook without rice.
Director Song went to the freezer to check in person and found that there was indeed no stock. Now all major factories are almost the same, waiting for allocation. If there is no allocation, you have to use unplanned indicators to purchase.
Hu Guangyong was incompetent and couldn't get anything done, but Director Song didn't listen to Sha Zhu and told him, "Just do this. There are also eggs. Try to make it richer. I'll go explain to Director Li."
After that, Director Song left, leaving Sha Zhu alone and sneered: "Grandson, you are still protecting him, your grandson must have embezzled money."
It's not Sha Zhu's fault for saying that. As a purchasing agent, especially Hu Guangyong, he truly saw Hu Guangyong's gray income. If it were in the past, Sha Zhu might not care, but not now.
