Chapter 217: Eating Melon in the Contemporary Literature (Twenty-nine)
Isn't it magical! These guys claim to be apprentices of Master Gu.
At the age of seventeen, eighteen or twenty, he would roll up his sleeves and work busily.
Light the stove, wash the vegetables, coax the children, sweep the floor...
Brother Gu, who was used to the "men work outside and women work inside" situation, felt confused.
The point is, it would be fine if these young men just did women's work, but they actually scrambled to do it! Why, is doing housework for others still a popular thing?
Or is it that these young men just love to work, even at home?
Brother Gu's worldview was shaky. He smiled and said, "You city people are so hardworking!"
Huoshui covered his mouth and said:...He must be a city person, he really knows how to have fun!
Upon hearing this, all the apprentices followed suit and laughed.
diligent?
When they are at home, who among them is not the kind of person who wouldn’t even help if the oil bottle fell over?
With my mother and sister at home, I don’t have to serve my own food or use chopsticks.
But, home is home and outside is outside.
Others are not his parents and will not pamper him.
If you want to learn skills from a master, you need to be sharp-eyed, quick-handed, smart and sensible.
It's just helping the master to pick up the children and do housework. In the old society, those apprentices would massage the master's back and wash his feet.
In fact, even now, there is still a difference between apprentices and apprentices.
Apprentices can regard themselves as workers and do not try to curry favor with or please their masters.
As for the master, due to the factory rules, he cannot refuse to teach the apprentice skills just because the apprentice is disrespectful.
But technology and technique are different.
Teaching you the basics counts as teaching you.
As the saying goes, "A teacher can only lead you to the door, but the practice is up to you."
This "cultivation" is not just about talent and diligence, etc. It also depends on whether the apprentice can behave like a human being!
Isn't it just some work? As long as the master is satisfied and willing to give a few pointers, it will be worth their while.
Just like the female fitter Han Tiexin, her skills improved by leaps and bounds after just a few pointers from her master.
It is estimated that when the factory conducts technical examinations again, she will be assigned a level 6 worker! Level 6, although only one level higher than level 5, is a level that can be respected as a master craftsman.
The key is that wages, benefits, etc. will all be adjusted up.
And, this is just the beginning.
As long as Han Tiexin continues to curry favor with his master, he can get advice and improve his skills further!
Perhaps in the near future, Han Tiexin will become the first eighth-level female fitter in the machinery factory.
As for Master Gu, haha, he has long since broken away from the restrictions of level.
People, the highest level!
…
In the evening, Gu Qingcheng returned to the courtyard in a small jeep.
When everyone in the room heard the noise, they all ran out.
Brother Gu ran the fastest because he had a lot of questions to ask his sister.
Then, he saw this scene——
The small jeep stopped at the gate of the yard, and a young apprentice jumped out first.
Instead of rushing into the house, he opened the car door.
He kept saying, "Master, slow down!"
This attitude is too attentive.
Huoshui: ...What do you know? This is called licking your ass!
If you want to learn technology, you must learn to humble yourself.
Then, a woman with a big belly slowly got out of the car.
"Xiao Ni!"
Brother Gu was very excited to finally see that familiar yet unfamiliar beautiful face.
"Brother? Why are you in town? Is there something wrong at home?"
Gu Qingcheng showed an appropriate expression of surprise and asked with concern.
"No! It's just that your sister-in-law was worried about you, so she asked me to come and see you and bring you some food!"
Brother Gu chuckled.
When he said "delivering food", there was a bit of pride in it.
Not all of a daughter’s family can be so generous to her married daughter.
Delivering food?
It’s good enough if we don’t let married women pay for their husbands.
Brother Gu also knew that even though these vegetables and dried mushrooms were not valuable in their rural area, they were just a matter of a handful of seeds and a lot of effort.
But in the city, even drinking water costs money.
Sometimes you can’t buy fresh vegetables even if you have money.
His gift is not shabby at all.
"Just come, why bring all this? It's so tiring!"
Gu Qingcheng said to Brother Gu with a smile.
She didn't dislike it, she just simply felt it was unnecessary.
Brother Gu was about to say something, but when he saw the actions of several apprentices, he couldn't help but open his mouth wide.
The young man who helped Gu Qingcheng open the car door, helped Gu Qingcheng get out of the car, and then went around to the other side of the car.
He opened the car door skillfully and started moving things out.
The other guys also ran over to help out as usual.
Bags of vegetables, baskets of eggs, and fresh game such as plucked pheasants and wild ducks.
This, this——
Noticing Brother Gu's gaze, Gu Qingcheng glanced at those things and said with a smile, "The 28th Factory I went to this time is in the mountains. Their unit grows its own vegetables, and the soldiers also go hunting in the mountains."
"I helped solve a technical problem and was in a hurry to return to the city. I didn't stay for dinner. Their leader felt bad for me and packed some things for me."
Brother Gu gurgled his lips, and suddenly felt that the "gift" he brought was really nothing.
The apprentice who helped open the car door did not forget to speak up for his master, "Master, I don't want it! But he is too enthusiastic."
"No matter what you do, you can't stop them. They have to stuff them into the carriage!"
"If it weren't too full, there would probably be even more stuff!"
Alas, people with excellent technical skills are respected wherever they go.
No wonder the ancients said, "Craftsmen will never starve to death in a famine."
From now on, I will work hard to learn skills from my master! The apprentices swore secretly while moving things.
Brother Gu: ...
He didn't know what to say.
It seems that the daughter-in-law's plan will not succeed.
Brother Gu is just honest, not stupid.
Besides, they have been married for more than ten years, doesn’t he understand his wife well?
Unfortunately, Xiaoni is too capable and doesn’t need any care from her family.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
On the contrary, they are very eager to rely on Xiaoni's support!
"Master, would you like to stew a chicken tonight?"
A young apprentice who was pretty good at cooking asked tentatively while holding a piece of slaughtered game in one hand.
"Forget it, it's a little late today, so I won't fire!"
Gu Qingcheng looked at the sky, then looked at Brother Gu, "My brother just happened to be here, let's go have a good meal!"
"Let's go to the restaurant at West Street. I haven't eaten braised pork in a while!"
Gu Qingcheng now has a considerable status in the machinery factory, so a certain plan can be implemented.
"It's my treat! Just eat as much as you want!"
Gu Qingcheng looks like a local tycoon.
Although during this period of time, she has become accustomed to the service and respect from her apprentices.
But as a qualified "superior", it is still necessary to show appropriate favors.
What she wants is a reliable apprentice, not a slave who endures humiliation.
"good!"
“That’s great!”
Several young men cheered happily.
Their master is not only skilled in technology, but also generous.
He will not blindly exploit or extort his apprentices.
When it’s time to teach the technology, people will teach.
If he gets benefits himself, he will also let his apprentices benefit from it.
Such a master can definitely be described as "good".
The disciples were more sincere when they "served" him.
Brother Gu originally wanted to persuade them, thinking that going out to a restaurant was a waste.
But seeing how excited the guys were, he didn't want to pour cold water on them.
At most, we can find a place where no one is around later. He reminded the girl: spend less money! Don't waste even if you make a lot of money! The group came to the West Street Hotel and found that there were not many customers when they entered the door.
Yes, it’s almost time for dinner at this time.
If it was half an hour later, the chef would probably have gone off work.
Even so, the waiter grumbled in a bad mood: "What time is it? Why are you still coming to eat?"
"They're off work, so why shouldn't we be off work too?"
But the waiter didn't dare to speak loudly.
It wasn't that her attitude had improved, but that she recognized that among the crowd surrounding Gu Qingcheng, there was a nephew of the hotel manager.
Although he is a nephew, the leader's family has only three daughters, and the leader raises his nephew as a son.
Find a job for him and find a master for him.
Just half a month ago, the leader specially invited Master Gu to dinner at a restaurant.
During the meal, the waiters standing by saw the leader's eager attitude.
So, at this moment, even if she was angry about the arrival of Gu Qingcheng and his group, which delayed her from getting off work, she only dared to complain a few words behind their backs.
"Alright, alright! There's still an hour until the end of the workday!"
Although the hotel manager doesn't like to leave work late, he doesn't indulge the waiters under him.
After reprimanding the waiter, he also reminded, "Tell the chef to pay more attention and don't mess around just because you're in a hurry to get off work!"
Xijiekou Hotel and the Five Star Machinery Factory are not part of the same system, and have no subordinate relationship with each other.
However, Gu Qingcheng's skills were so impressive that the news spread to all major steel manufacturers.
It is always better to make a good relationship than to offend someone to death.
Who doesn’t have children or relatives and doesn’t want to work in a factory?
This person, you never know when he will come to someone for help.
Hotel managers are very scheming and will not make stupid mistakes easily.
"Um!"
The waiter pursed his lips, but still helped order the dishes according to Gu Qingcheng's request.
She was about to take the list to the kitchen when Gu Qingcheng shouted, "Wait a minute!"
The waitress gritted her teeth: Is this the end? I didn't scold you, but you're getting ahead of me? She was indeed concerned about her boss, but she wasn't really afraid of him.
She is a regular employee, so even if she offends her boss, she will not be fired! "I heard that there is a Meng Yao in your restaurant, who has inherited the skills from her ancestors and is an expert at making braised pork!"
“I want her to be the chef!”
The waiter couldn't help feeling a little dazed. Hey, this word seems strangely familiar.
Why is there another idiot who wants to order a chef? Do you really think this is the old society, where you can not only order dishes, but also order chefs and banquets?
"She is an apprentice and has not yet graduated. According to the rules, she cannot cook!"
"What's the rule? Why don't I know about it?"
Waiter: ...There is indeed no explicit rule, but this is the custom of the hotel.
Besides, if you are not a master yet, your cooking skills will not be good and the customers will not be satisfied with the food.
"I just want Master Meng to cook. Whether it tastes good or not, I don't care!"
Gu Qingcheng said it so capriciously.
Her uncle, who was the apprentice of the hotel manager, stepped forward and said, "Yes! Listen to my master!"
The waitress gritted her teeth, unwilling to give in, so she called Meng Yao out.
When Gu Qingcheng saw Meng Yao, she couldn't help but be a little surprised: I haven't seen her for more than 20 days, how could she become like this? PS: Old saying: Please give me a monthly ticket!
