Fishing and cooking. The fishing gear the system gave me before has also come in handy.
Nan Yi looked at Ma Hua with envy: "Master Ma, where did you get this fishing rod?"
"Haha, you like it, right? If you like it, take a look more." Ma Hua laughed smugly. This was a fishing rod rewarded by the system. It looked unremarkable, but it was really durable.
To be honest, Nan Yi's cooking skills are much better than Ma Hua's. Nan Yi is a genuine descendant of a royal chef.
Ma Hua's cooking skills are truly inferior, but Ma Hua's strength lies in his extensive knowledge and experience. He can name any dish that Nan Yi mentions.
However, the two would also argue about the taste of the dishes, since many dishes in later generations had undergone multiple rounds of improvement, and their tastes were quite different from the traditional ones.
Nan Yi and MCA are like two factions, one traditional and one reformist, learning from each other and making progress together.
The two were also good mentors and friends to each other. Ma Hua actually had his own little thoughts; in this era, there are so many things to eat, and he was really craving them and wanted to try them.
Unlike later generations, where it was either a five-year minimum or working yourself to death on a sewing machine,
While MCA is living a carefree life, Shah Chu is in a terrible situation.
Ever since the last time everyone caused trouble in the cafeteria, Sha Zhu had put in effort for two days—just two days—but the food he made after that became increasingly mediocre.
By now, everyone had finally lost their temper and started arguing with Sha Zhu again in the cafeteria.
"Silly Zhu, what kind of dish did you make? It's awful!" Guo Da Piezi couldn't hold back any longer and cursed directly. "You silly Zhu, you've always been protecting Qin Huairu, haven't you? Fine."
“Eat if you like, get out if you don’t. This is how your grandpa cooks, so what? You got a problem with that?” Sha Zhu said provocatively to Guo Da Piezi.
As for the feud between Sha Zhu and Guo Da Piezi, it all stemmed from Qin Huairu; the two simply couldn't stand each other.
"Hey. Where's Director Wang? Come out and see for yourself, this is your cafeteria's cook!"
How dare they talk to us working class like that! Instead of trying to fix the terrible food, they're strutting around like that!
Guo Da Piezi wasn't stupid; he didn't speak directly to Sha Zhu because, in his opinion, Sha Zhu wasn't worthy.
As the workshop director, I naturally have to talk to the canteen director. Sha Zhu, a mere cook, doesn't even deserve to speak to me.
"I'm in charge of our cafeteria. I'll say it again: eat if you like, get out if you don't. Next!"
Sha Zhu sneered, then brazenly raised the rice ladle and banged it against the large bowl of vegetables.
"Shazhu, you're the biggest bad guy in our factory, you thief. You latrine shoveler!"
"And Director Yang even tried to assure us that you'd be fine? Pah! Who do you think you are!"
"That's right, comrades, the food in the canteen is getting worse and worse, and Sha Zhu is getting more and more arrogant. You can tolerate it, but I can't."
"This is our territory. Like I said, if you're not going to eat, get out. If you cause trouble, believe me, I'll beat you up."
Sha Zhu's reckless spirit kicked in. Who did he think he was? He was the tyrant of the steel mill's kitchen. How dare they cause trouble on his turf?
Sha Zhu's words enraged the crowd even more, and some hot-tempered people shouted, "Beat him up!"
"Yeah, beat him up! How dare he talk back to us workers!"
Even if Sha Zhu was incredibly strong, he couldn't fight against so many opponents. The group practically pinned him to the ground and beat him senseless.
If Director Yang hadn't arrived quickly, Sha Zhu would probably have been beaten to death by everyone.
When Factory Director Yang took Sha Zhu to the infirmary, he roared at the crowd, "You're all utterly lawless! Fighting in the factory area, so what? Do you want to be fired?!"
"Director Yang, what you're saying isn't right! Why don't you ask why we hit him?"
"That's right, Director Yang, aren't you a bit confused about right and wrong? How could you do this?"
"If you really do that, don't blame me for reporting you to higher authorities,"
"Exactly! Why does Director Yang insist on making Sha Zhu the head chef? He's a thief! What did you promise us before? It's only been a few days, and the food in the canteen is getting worse and worse!"
"What exactly did Master Ma do wrong? Why was he transferred away?"
Hearing that Director Yang dared to threaten them, the hot-blooded crowd was outraged. They knew he favored Sha Zhu, but they didn't expect him to be this biased.
He immediately retorted angrily, "Do you really think we don't know why Master Ma left? What's your relationship with Sha Zhu?" The others, having given up all hope, simply retorted.
Fighting in the factory area is a very serious matter. Since that's the case, if you, Director Yang, dare to punish us, don't blame us for reporting it to higher authorities!
Seeing that everyone's anger was directed at Director Yang.
Li Huaide was overjoyed. Everything was going perfectly according to his plan!
Li Huaide coughed twice and said, "Comrades, quiet down. I am Li Huaide, the director of the logistics department of our steel rolling mill. No matter what the reason is, none of you should have started this fight in the canteen."
The canteen is for eating, not for fighting. But I just heard from some comrades that there seems to be more to the story. Okay then.
Is there anyone willing to volunteer to tell us why they fought?
Please rest assured, comrades, our factory leaders will handle this matter impartially.
At this moment, the person arranged by Li Huaide immediately volunteered, saying, "Director Li, you must stand up for us! This Sha Zhu is relying on Director Yang's connections..."
Not only did they act all high and mighty in the cafeteria, but they also yelled at us to get out. We saw that just now.
"And the food in our cafeteria is getting worse and worse. We just wanted to ask why, but Sha Zhu yelled at us, telling us to eat it if we wanted, or get out. We can't even ask him why?"
