Jia Dongsheng, who always pays attention to the situation in the cafeteria, found that all the people who came to eat were very satisfied with the practice of not shaking the spoon, and he was very happy.
At this time, Jia Dongsheng suddenly saw an acquaintance, Xu Damao.
It has been half a month since I returned to the courtyard. During these days, the people who have the most contact with Jia Dongsheng are the people in the middle courtyard. Xu Damao, who lives in the back courtyard, goes out early and comes back late almost every day. Sometimes he is not seen for several days, so there is not much contact with him.
But after all, the two of them are about the same age, and they played together when they were young, so they became familiar with each other after chatting for a few sentences.
Jia Dongsheng discovered that Xu Damao was also very enthusiastic towards him and even invited him to have a drink once.
Having watched the drama, Jia Dongsheng knew that Xu Damao was an egoist. He was rarely so enthusiastic towards people who were of no use to him.
Although this is reality, not a drama, the inherent impression still makes Jia Dongsheng somewhat wary.
But after so many days, Jia Dongsheng still didn't find out what Xu Damao wanted to use him for, so he didn't care anymore.
At this time, he saw Xu Damao holding a lunch box and staggering to the window where Sha Zhu was getting food. Yes, Jia Dongsheng could see that Xu Damao deliberately chose the window where Sha Zhu was getting food, which made him a little curious.
It was really interesting that the two of them didn't get along, but they kept trying to get together. He took two steps forward to listen to their conversation.
"Silly Zhu, hurry up and serve me some food."
Xu Damao shouted at Sha Zhu in a careless manner.
"What are you yelling about? Who are you calling yourselves masters? Are you being mean and wanting to be punished?"
Sha Zhu would not tolerate him and angrily retorted with a cold brow.
"Shazhu, look at where we are. If you cause trouble in the factory, I'll get the security department to arrest you."
Xu Damao, who was almost psychologically traumatized by Sha Zhu's beating, took a step back unconsciously when he heard that Sha Zhu was going to use violence. However, he thought that he was too cowardly, so he quickly retracted his foot and started shouting loudly.
"Humph, coward."
Sha Zhu snorted coldly and said, "Hurry up and eat something. I don't have the time to waste here with you."
"Give me a portion of tofu and cabbage."
Xu Damao pointed at the Mapo Tofu and another dish of cabbage and black fungus and said.
Then, Sha Zhu began his performance.
Although Jia Dongsheng ordered him not to shake the spoon, Sha Zhu naturally forgot Jia Dongsheng's order when facing Xu Damao.
Sha Zhu's hands were shaking like he had Parkinson's disease. The spoonful of food that was originally full was reduced to just the bottom of the spoon.
Jia Dongsheng knew that the two of them didn't get along, and it would be fun to see them together, so he walked closer to watch their fun. This also allowed him to clearly see that there were only three pieces of tofu left at the bottom of the spoon.
Anyone who has eaten Mapo Tofu knows that the tofu pieces are not very big. To put it bluntly, three pieces of tofu can be eaten in one bite.
Seeing this scene, Jia Dongsheng smiled secretly, while Xu Damao's face became completely gloomy.
"Silly Zhu, I bought a portion of tofu for only three pieces. Do you believe I'll go to the factory manager and sue you?"
"Humph, if you want to sue me, go ahead. Am I afraid of you?"
Sha Zhu gave him a sidelong glance and said, "If you want me to make you food, then I can only make this much. Eat it if you want."
Sha Zhu's indifference calmed Xu Damao's anger, and he laughed instead: "You're right, I don't care how much I eat, I just want to see you serve me food. Your only life in this world is to serve me food."
"Hehe, not only that, when I get married and have kids, you'll have to serve food to my wife and kids, haha."
At the end of his speech, Xu Damao burst into laughter.
Normally, he can't get any advantage against Sha Zhu.
Unlike other people, Xu Damao can rely on his cleverness to plot against others, but when he meets Sha Zhu, no matter how he plots, Sha Zhu will take action.
The two of them have been at odds since they were young, and even now that they are old, Xu Damao has always wanted to plot against Sha Zhu, but every time he does so, Sha Zhu finds out and he gets beaten up by him. That's what they call being evenly matched.
After getting the dishes, Xu Damao took the few dishes and two steamed buns made of two-grain flour, sat not far from Sha Zhu, and started eating with big mouthfuls.
While eating, he muttered: "This is the dish that Shazhu served me."
That's right, he was deliberately trying to piss off Sha Zhu. Xu Damao always did this whenever he ate at the factory, but what about Sha Zhu?
It is normal for a chef to serve food to people, but for Xu Damao, it is very annoying. But there is nothing he can do. As the saying goes, this is his job.
After watching a big show, Jia Dongsheng returned to the kitchen happily, thinking in his heart that with these two enemies in the courtyard, there will definitely be many interesting things.
In the afternoon, after lunch, the workers returned to their posts one after another, and the news that the No. 1 canteen did not shake the spoons spread throughout the factory.
For a time, Canteen No. 1 became famous, especially the dish Mapo Tofu, which was praised by many people. People who had originally planned to eat in other canteens tomorrow now planned to come to Canteen No. 1 to try it out and experience the feeling of not shaking the spoon.
"Dongsheng, I tried the mapo tofu you made. It's absolutely delicious."
Fang Zhuo came to the kitchen, called Jia Dongsheng outside, and gave him a thumbs up.
"Hey, Director Fang, this is just normal."
When it comes to cooking, Jia Dongsheng is not one to be polite. On the contrary, he is extremely confident: "This is a big pot dish. If it is a stir-fry, I am even more proficient."
"Okay, then I really want to try it today."
Fang Zhuo clapped his hands and laughed loudly, "I have a treat this afternoon. How about you cook the dishes?"
The reason I ask this is because there is a science to making entertaining dishes.
The level of the reception dishes should be arranged according to the type of leader.
The dishes for the factory leaders are of course prepared by the best chef. The dishes for the directors of a lower rank are prepared by the chef of a lower rank. The dishes for the section chiefs are prepared by the chef of a lower rank.
Of course, there are only three levels in the factory because there are three chefs in Canteen No. 1.
Before Jia Dongsheng came, Liu Ran made the highest-level hospitality dishes, and Sha Zhu was second. However, their cooking skills were comparable, but Sha Zhu's status in the kitchen was lower than Liu Ran's.
"Of course, no problem, Director Fang. How many dishes would you like for this afternoon's reception?"
"Three meat dishes and three vegetable dishes are enough, but your mapo tofu must be included. I just tried it and it wasn't enough."
"That's absolutely fine. I'll come up with a combination later. Six dishes and one soup."
"Okay, okay, then I'll be waiting for your treat."
Fang Zhuo left with anticipation, while Jia Dongsheng went to take a look at the warehouse. Three meat dishes and three vegetable dishes were really a bit of a luxury in that era.
