"Master, you are here."
Entering the kitchen, the young apprentice Liu Hongchang immediately offered Jia Dongsheng his courtesy: "The tea is ready. It has just cooled down a little and is just right for drinking."
This boy is very sensible. He is very grateful to Jia Dongsheng for taking him in and teaching him. He is always trying to do something to help Jia Dongsheng.
So he took over Liu Lan's job of making tea for Jia Dongsheng every day.
Jia Dongsheng also admired Liu Hongchang's character. Although he was still young, he was clever and well-behaved, and he also had a high talent for cooking. He was very satisfied with this little apprentice.
"Yeah, okay."
After patting Liu Hongchang's little head, Jia Dongsheng came to the seat and sat down. Liu Hongchang immediately handed the big teapot with brewed tea to Jia Dongsheng's hand.
"Xiao Hongchang, ever since you came here, you've been doing all my work. What do you want me, your senior sister, to do?"
Liu Lan looked at Liu Hongchang with a smile and said jokingly.
Liu Lan and Liu Hongchang both have the surname Liu. After a period of contact, Liu Lan has regarded Liu Hongchang as his own brother and likes to joke with him whenever he has time.
"Sister, I'm your junior, so of course I do all the work. You should just take a rest."
Liu Hongchang, a smart little boy, stuck out his tongue and tried to please Liu Lan.
Liu Hongchang had been in the kitchen for quite some time and was already familiar with almost all the staff there. They talked and laughed all day long and he no longer looked like the worried guy he had when he first arrived.
"Hmph, Master, my junior fellow apprentice is such a sly fellow. I think you should expel him from the sect."
After giving Liu Hongchang a blank look, Liu Lan immediately offered some advice to Jia Dongsheng. However, the smile on her lips while she was speaking made it clear that she was just joking.
Nowadays, teasing Liu Hongchang every day can almost be said to be a little game for the kitchen staff.
There's no way around it, Liu Hongchang has a tough personality and is really fun to tease.
For example, now, after hearing Liu Lan say that the master had expelled him from the sect, he immediately ran to Liu Lan, took off his clothes, hugged Liu Lan's thighs, and said loudly; "Senior sister, I can't leave you and the master, you can't let the master leave me!"
This scene made everyone in the kitchen burst into laughter.
In fact, Liu Hongchang also understood that Liu Lan was joking, and he was just following Liu Lan's words and making jokes.
Jia Dongsheng drank tea and watched Liu Lan and Liu Hongchang playing around. He felt very relaxed. Xu Damao's appearance did not affect his good mood.
"Dongsheng, Xu Damao came to see you just now. What's going on?"
Qin Huairu quietly walked to Jia Dongsheng and asked in a low voice.
"Nothing, he just got another jar of good wine from his father-in-law and wanted to give it to me."
"Send you some wine?"
Qin Huairu was puzzled. "It's not a festival, why would I send you wine?"
"Sister-in-law, that's not right. I'm so popular in our hospital, isn't it normal for someone to give me wine?"
Jia Dongsheng happened to show a smug expression: "Not only did Damao give me wine, but He Daqing also treated me to a drink tonight."
"Dongsheng, I think they are just like weasels paying New Year's greetings to chickens. They have no good intentions. You have to be more careful."
Qin Huairu rolled her eyes and said unhappily.
As soon as these words were spoken, Jia Dongsheng laughed. If we talk about intelligence, Qin Huairu is still smart!
As the saying goes, there are not so many good things falling from the sky in this world. There are calculations behind the love and hate without reason.
However, Qin Huairu's metaphor left Jia Dongsheng speechless. What's the point of a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken? Who is the chicken?
Talking, laughing and making noise, the whole morning passed by.
In the afternoon, when Jia Dongsheng was looking for a place to lie down for a while, rest and recharge his energy, Fang Zhuo came to him.
"Dongsheng, hurry up and get busy, you have a mission."
"What's the matter, Director Fang? You look quite anxious."
"This afternoon, steel mills in the three northeastern provinces of Heilongjiang, Jilin and Liaoning each sent a group of workers to our factory for exchanges and learning."
Fang Zhuo said anxiously, "Look, I just got the news that the person has already gotten off the train and is heading to our factory. I estimate that they will be here in about an hour."
"Dongsheng, you have to hurry and get some food. They haven't eaten since they got on the train, and they're all starving."
"The leader said that we can't let the comrades from the sister factories come to our factory hungry, so you have to prepare the food before they arrive so that they can have a hot meal as soon as they enter the factory."
Jia Dongsheng was unmoved by Fang Zhuo's impatience. As a chef, no matter how anxious the food is, he cannot be impatient when cooking.
The more anxious you are, the easier it is to make mistakes, especially for chefs.
If you add a little bit of extra seasoning when cooking because you are in a hurry, you may end up ruining the dish.
Therefore, Jia Dongsheng still asked calmly: "How many workers are there? You have to tell me this, otherwise there will not be enough to eat if you make too little, and it will be wasted if you make too much."
"Each factory manager leads 15 workers, which adds up to 45 people. See what you can produce in an hour. Hurry up."
Looking at Jia Dongsheng's unhurried pace, Fang Zhuo became extremely anxious.
"Forty-five people?"
Jia Dongsheng pondered for a moment and began to give orders: "Liu Lan, mix corn flour and white flour in a ratio of ten to one to make corn noodles. Hong Chang, boil a pot of water. Nan Yi, go to the warehouse and get some meat to cut."
