“Sizzle…”
"Bring me the cabbage and fungus."
"Move aside, you're blocking the road."
"Should we put this meat in the pot now?"
Ever since Jia Dongsheng arrived in the kitchen, everyone has been busy with their duties.
Throughout the morning, the kitchen was filled with the sounds of cooking, busyness, and talking, and it was extremely noisy.
No matter what era the kitchen is in, it always looks like this when it gets busy.
Although the kitchen was messy, it was far less noisy than the cafeteria in front.
Simply because Canteen No. 1 was already full of people early on.
Today is National Day, and there is no need to go to the workshop to work. When the workers come, they go straight to the canteen.
Among them, the largest number of people come to Canteen No. 1 to occupy space.
There was no way. Jia Dongsheng had been in the factory for so long, and the workers in the factory knew that the best chef was in canteen No. 1.
Although the food in Canteen No. 1 is the same, it is one or two levels higher than that in other canteens.
Therefore, Canteen No. 1 was the first of the eight canteens in the factory to be filled up. It was full before nine o'clock.
The dinner won't start until at least 11 o'clock.
Arriving two hours early to reserve a spot shows how popular Jia Dongsheng is in the steel rolling mill.
As time passed, the aroma from the kitchen would drift into the dining room from time to time.
In the cafeteria, the workers naturally sniffed and inhaled all the fragrance that drifted in front of them.
"What kind of dish is this? Why does it smell so good?"
"That's right, I've never smelled anything like this before. It smells so good!"
"Hiss, I didn't eat anything this morning just for this lunch. My stomach is growling at the smell of this. I'm starving."
"You haven't eaten yet, and neither have I. I'm starving. When will dinner be served?"
"I guess it's time for dinner. No, I need to get some water. My hands are shaking from hunger."
"Haha, don't shake. If your hand shakes after you finish cooking, everything will fall to the ground."
"I can get two servings of food soon. The factory is really good to us. I was thinking of going home to eat after getting the food. My wife and kids haven't eaten meat for a long time."
"Who says it isn't?"
“…”
“…”
The cafeteria was bustling with chatter, discussion, hungry howling, and rumbling stomachs. At this moment, a group of people walked in from outside and went straight to the second floor.
Yang Weimin, Li Huaide and several other deputy factory directors were all there. Leading them was a man in his fifties with a simple but somewhat serious face.
This is the senior leader who came to inspect today.
After going up to the second floor, he didn't go inside, but stood at the stairs and started talking.
"Comrade Weimin, I just heard the workers discussing why you can get two meals at your dinner today. What's the meaning of that?"
The superior turned to look at Yang Weimin and asked curiously.
“This, this…”
Yang Weimin stuttered nervously. Since the dinner involved the canteen, he handed it all over to Li Huaide.
Who made Li Huaide only take care of logistics?
So, when Li Huaide told him about this situation before, he just listened roughly and then forgot about it. Who would have thought that when his superior asked him about it at this moment, he only had an impression but didn't know how to respond.
Facing Yang Weimin's hesitation, Li Huaide laughed inwardly: "I made you absent-minded when I was reporting. Did this leave a bad impression on the new leader?"
"You've been neglecting logistics work. Humph, the leaders all take it seriously, but you don't. With your ideological awareness, you'll have to give me your seat sooner or later."
Although he was grumbling in his heart, Li Huaide still stood up and spoke. Only in this way could he give his superiors the impression that he and his team were very united.
What's more, Li Huaide believes that he has always been a very united person.
"Leader, this is what happened."
Li Huaide stepped forward, looked at his superiors, and reported: "The factory has been preparing for the National Day banquet for a long time, just to let the workers have a meal of meat."
"However, considering the situation in the past two years, it must be difficult for the workers' families to eat meat. So, the factory thought, although we can't invite the workers' families to the factory for a meal, we can let the workers take a meal back home."
"Although our factory is in a difficult situation, it is better than our fellow workers. We can provide them and their families with meat. Although the consumption is a bit high, it is still within the range that the factory can afford."
Of course, this statement was embellished. Li Huaide couldn't just say that he was afraid that the workers would take the food home, so when the superiors came to inspect, they would find an empty canteen?
Therefore, he could only pick out the good things to say, and show that the factory was considering the workers and their families.
And in fact...
These words made the newly transferred superior very pleased.
"Yes, very good!"
The senior leader's originally serious expression finally thawed, revealing a smile: "As cadres of the people, we should empathize with our fellow workers and think more about them."
"Our country has faced quite a few difficulties in recent years, but no matter how great the difficulties are, as long as we unite as one, we will definitely be able to overcome them."
