Director Li finally called everyone over. There were about fifty of them, standing in such a huge crowd that it was almost impossible to find a place to stand.
Shen Annian demonstrated it once, adding flour, salt and baking soda in proportion, how much to knead the dough, how long to let the dough rest, and how much to fry the dough.
She took the dough out of the pan and said, "When it reaches this color, it's ready to be taken out of the pan."
Li Aihong smiled and said, "If you demonstrate it like this once, we will understand.
They said to fry it for three minutes, but we didn’t know how long to fry it.”
Someone asked Shen Annian, "Secretary Shen, why do you look so skilled? Have you fried this kind of pancake before?"
Shen Anyian smiled slightly, "This instant noodle is improved by me."
Everyone was very surprised, and the man who was waiting to laugh at her now had a red face.
They tried many times but failed, and thought she didn't know how to make the pancakes. Who knew that she was the one who made the dough.
It's so embarrassing.
He quietly hid in the crowd, trying to hide himself.
Shen Annian saw his little movement from the corner of his eye, but pretended not to see it, and said with a smile: "If you have any questions, you can ask them."
Everyone looked at each other and didn't find anything to ask.
For this kind of thing, it is better to try it yourself so that you can know where you are doing wrong.
Seeing that no one spoke, Shen Annian said, "You can try it."
Everyone smelled the fragrance and was already drooling with greed. Without being polite, they each broke off a piece of the bread to taste it.
"Wow, this noodle is really delicious, fragrant and crispy."
"How can it not be fragrant and delicious after being fried in so much oil?"
After everyone tasted it, they started to get started, and Shen Annian asked someone to make the soup base.
We do have chickens, they are raised in the factory and can be used right away.
The bones are a bit hard to find though.
They didn't plan to make soup, and the bones couldn't be kept for a long time, fearing they would go bad, so they didn't buy them.
When Shen Annian brought up the matter, Director Zhou asked someone to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to see if they could buy back the big bones.
After instructing the workers, he walked over and extended his hand towards Shen Anyan.
"Hello, Director Shen, I'm Zhou Xiaoxian, the director of the food factory."
Shen Annian looked at the man who was about forty years old, stretched out his hand and shook his hand briefly.
"Hello, Director Zhou."
"Director Shen, instant noodles have to be hand-rolled? Can you do it well?"
Although the factory was opened, the commune's investment was too small, and whether it could buy equipment was still a problem.
Shen Annian: "There is no need to rush to buy equipment, we can make it by hand first and sell it in the department store first.
If we succeed in the future, we can apply to the higher authorities to buy noodle machines like those used in noodle factories, and let the workers do the frying later.
When the factory becomes profitable and we want to expand, we can buy a machine that can compress, cut and fry all in one.”
Director Zhou was puzzled. "Is there such a machine?"
"If there isn't one, we can ask someone to come over and research and modify it. With a machine, it will be much faster."
Director Zhou nodded. "This is the only way now. Director Shen, please give us some more guidance so that the workers can get started as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, I'll be here watching over the next few days and make sure I teach everyone a lesson."
"That's great. It's so hot here. Why don't you go to the office and rest for a while and drink some water?"
"No need. I'll just watch everyone operate from here so I can see what's wrong."
"Thank you for your hard work."
Shen Annian walked around the workshop several times, pointing out everyone's improper operations one by one.
Because everyone knew that it was she who improved instant noodles, no one was dissatisfied with her anymore, and she corrected all the problems pointed out to her.
She soaked the noodles made by the workers in water. The noodles did not fall apart or break, the soup was very clear, and the noodles were elastic. It was considered a success.
Until she felt hungry, she looked at the time and saw that it was almost twelve o'clock. She said goodbye to Director Zhou and left work with Secretary Li.
"Director Li, I'd like to invite you to dinner at the state-owned restaurant today."
When Director Li heard that she wanted to treat him to a state-owned restaurant, he refused repeatedly, saying, "There's no need to spend so much money. We can just eat in the cafeteria."
"You're welcome. When you went to the hospital to deliver the banner for me, I promised to treat you to a meal.
Now that I have some free time, I'll take this opportunity to treat you to a meal so that I don't miss the chance later."
Secretary Li was very puzzled. "What do you mean by no chance?"
"I'm going to the commune office to resign tomorrow."
Director Li was so frightened that his voice almost split. "What? You want to resign? Why?"
Shen Annian didn't expect him to be so surprised. Didn't Secretary Chen tell him that he had offended the Zhao family and they hired someone to deal with his affairs?
"There's no particular reason. I'm going to join the army, so I can't do the work here anymore, so I have no choice but to resign."
Li Ganshi still felt it was a little unbelievable and a little reluctant.
Although he and Shen Annian had not worked together for a long time, who doesn't like to work with capable people?
What's more, she is not only capable, but she can also read people's expressions. Working with such a person will reduce a lot of trouble.
"Did Secretary Chen agree?"
"I agreed. I guess Secretary Chen has already asked the finance department to calculate my salary."
"So how's the factory here? How's the instant noodles? Will you come over to guide the work again?"
"Of course, I have to get this food factory up and running first. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease even if I leave."
When Director Li heard her words, he felt even more emotional.
