Jia Dongsheng didn't care who came to get the meal. When someone handed him a lunch box, he would put a lion's head and two spoonfuls of chicken, rabbit and mushroom stew in it.
Rabbit meat itself does not have a particularly strong aroma, but it can be stewed with chicken, duck, or goose, and the flavor will take on whatever it is stewed with.
Therefore, if you are not a very advanced chef, you will not be able to tell the difference between the rabbit and chicken in the stewed chicken and rabbit with mushrooms. The only word that can describe it is that it is delicious.
He saw Yang Weimin and Li Huaide following a somewhat majestic man to get their meals, but they were not treated specially and not even a word was said.
Finish the dish quietly and then move on to the next one.
This behavior made Li Huaide smile slightly. He knew that Jia Dongsheng was a person who was indifferent to fame and fortune, otherwise he would not stay in the kitchen as a chef.
He knew that in addition to being a chef, Jia Dongsheng was also a disciple of an imperial physician. If he wanted to develop, wouldn't being a doctor have more room for improvement?
The superior finished two full boxes of food and took two steamed buns made of two-grain flour. He looked around and found that there was no place to sit.
The tables in the dining hall were all occupied by workers. He smiled slightly and said to Yang Weimin, "Let's eat upstairs."
"Okay, leader, I'll lead the way."
Yang Weimin walked in front and soon entered a private room on the second floor.
After taking their seats, the senior leaders picked up their chopsticks and started eating.
He just watched other people eating downstairs and felt hungry too. He just didn’t know if the food was delicious.
With some anticipation, he picked up a mushroom and put it in his mouth. The taste instantly conquered him.
The two main meat dishes at today's dinner were both made by Jia Dongsheng, while the semi-meat dish was made by Nan Yi. Qin Huairu only made two vegetarian dishes.
"Mmm, this tastes delicious!"
He muttered to himself, then picked up a piece of chicken and took a bite. His mouth was filled with fragrance. He couldn't help nodding while eating, and then looked at the lion's head.
He never expected that this dish would appear in the factory cafeteria.
At his level, although he didn't care much about food and drink, he still ate a lot of delicious food. He knew how much meat was needed to make a lion's head.
That's why he was curious why the workers in the steel mill would make lion's head at their dinner party!
With anticipation, he ate a small piece of lion's head. Hmm, the fresh and fragrant taste filled his taste buds. This taste was the most delicious lion's head he had ever eaten.
At the same time, he could also feel that there was not as much meat in the lion's head as he had imagined.
But this is even more difficult.
The amount of meat used is less than that of other chefs, but the taste is better, which is simply against common sense.
"The steel mill's banquet was excellent."
The food tasted so good that the superior leader had no time to speak and started eating with big mouthfuls.
Judging from the way he eats, he must have come from the lower class and is not the kind of person who is high and mighty.
After finishing all the dishes and two steamed buns made with two layers of flour, the superior wiped his mouth and said, "This lion's head is really delicious."
"It's a blessing for the factory workers to be able to eat meals made with such skill every day!"
Such emotional words made Yang Weimin, Li Huaide and others feel a little happy. As long as the leader ate well, he would definitely have a better impression of their factory.
When it comes to planning tasks for next year, the steel mill will be able to get more and more important tasks.
"As long as the boss likes it, there's not much meat in this lion's head. The factory doesn't have much meat, so this is the only way."
Li Huaide spoke up: "But, leader, can you come to our factory for an inspection during the Mid-Autumn Festival? Then I can ask the chef to make you another lion's head dish, a more authentic one."
"No."
Waving his hand, the superior said, "I'm going to visit Shougang during the Mid-Autumn Festival and won't come to your place. I'm very satisfied with the way the steel mill treats its workers. I don't need to come again."
"As for the Lion's Head..."
Having said that, he paused. There was nothing he could do. The taste just now was so good that he would want it again after having tasted it once!
"Maybe next time when there's a chance. The country is in trouble right now, and our factory isn't well off either. Let's wait for a couple of years when things are going well across the country, and then we can give it a try."
"Okay, I'll listen to the leader." Yang Weimin responded with a smile.
The superior leader was in a good mood after the meal, and he was also very satisfied with the attitude of the steel rolling mill towards the workers. After the meal, he continued to inspect the factory under the leadership of Yang Weimin and others and then left.
At the same time, Jia Dongsheng and Qin Huairu, each carrying three lunch boxes, left the steel mill and returned to the courtyard.
At this moment, the three-day National Day holiday officially began for Jia Dongsheng.
At the same time, today is also a very happy day for most families in the courtyard.
This is because there are more than ten households in the courtyard who have people working in the steel rolling mill, such as Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Yan Fugui, Sha Zhu, Nan Yi and so on.
As long as you work in the steel mill, you can bring back at least one box of food. Some people even can't bear to eat too much at the steel mill and can bring back two boxes.
However, some people take care of their families and bring back more, while others do not and bring back less.
For example, Yi Zhonghai, who had a wife and children at home, ate shredded potatoes and steamed buns at the steel rolling mill, and left all the meat and semi-meat dishes untouched.
The purpose is to improve the food for the two children.
