After boiling a pot of Chinese medicine for several people at home, Jia Dongsheng did not stay at home for long, but immediately went to the steel rolling mill.
Just because several people in his family had colds, coughs, and even fevers, he felt a little worried.
Just as Yan Jiecheng said before, as the end of the year approaches, the steel rolling mill is now under time pressure and has heavy tasks. If the workers in the factory catch colds one after another at this moment, it will definitely affect the progress of the factory's production tasks.
Of course, even if the mission was really delayed, it would have little to do with Jia Dongsheng, as he was just a cook.
But, as I said before, he doesn't have any great ambitions and cannot help this rising country, but he is still willing to contribute a little bit within his ability.
For example, helping factory workers prevent colds and saving the production of various steels needed by the country can also be considered contributing to the country, right?
What's more, if he does this job well, he might even be counted as one of the outstanding workers at the end of the year.
When he arrived at the factory, Jia Dongsheng did not rush to tell Fang Zhuo about this matter, but went to the kitchen first.
"Master, you are here."
It was Liu Hongchang again. This guy was very perceptive. When he saw Jia Dongsheng coming in, he immediately came to greet him.
"Yeah, here I come."
Nodding, Jia Dongsheng went to the chopping board, picked up a spoon, and knocked on the board, making a dull sound of "dong dong dong", which attracted everyone in the kitchen.
Facing everyone's gaze, Jia Dongsheng asked a question: "Is anyone among us suffering from a cold, cough, or fever?"
This question made everyone look at each other in confusion, not understanding why Jia Dongsheng asked this question so calmly.
However, a few people still spoke up: "Lao Jia, I have had a cold in recent days, but I don't cough, just have a runny nose."
"I have a cold too. I have a cough and a fever. It's been two or three days now."
"And me, I cough too."
It’s not a small number, at least they account for one-fifth of the people in the kitchen.
"Um."
Jia Dongsheng nodded, then said, "I have something to tell you, and everyone should go and do it now."
"What's the matter, Master?" asked Liu Lan, who was also one of the people with a cold.
"Go to each workshop and other departments and take a look and listen to see if there are many people with colds and coughs."
"Why are you looking at this?"
Everyone was puzzled, but Jia Dongsheng didn't give them any explanation. Instead, he said, "Just do what I say. Go now. I'll wait for news."
Since Jia Dongsheng had given the order, no one else dared to disobey. Besides, it was not a big deal, just running errands. After nodding, the people in the kitchen set off.
Jia Dongsheng leisurely returned to his seat and sat down. He picked up the tea that had been brewed long ago, took a sip, and waited.
The steel rolling mill is a large factory with tens of thousands of employees, and each workshop has only two to three hundred people. There are as many as thirty or forty workshops, plus other departments, so the area occupied is very large.
There are only more than 20 people in the kitchen now, and it takes a lot of time to run around the entire factory.
So, Jia Dongsheng waited for an hour, and the people gradually came back.
Jia Dongsheng would ask every worker who came back whether there were many workers with colds or fevers. Although the answers he got were different, he silently calculated in his mind and found that the number was still within a controllable range.
But colds are contagious.
Otherwise, later generations would not have added the prefix "epidemic" to the word "cold".
If there is one person catching a cold in a workshop, everyone might catch a cold eventually, especially in this day and age when people are generally unwilling to take medicine.
Just rely on your body to be strong. If you can't hold on any longer, just take some painkillers. But you should only take them when you can't hold on any longer. Normally, whether you have a cough or a fever, you rely on your body to heal itself.
It’s not like in later generations, where if you have the slightest health problem, you will immediately go to the hospital and queue up. This is why there are so many hospitals in later generations, but they are still overcrowded.
"Okay, let's get ready for lunch."
After getting the answer he wanted, he waved his hand and signaled everyone to get busy. After sitting on the stool and thinking for a while, he immediately stood up, went upstairs and came to Fang Zhuo's office.
"Knock, knock, knock."
After knocking on the door a few times, Jia Dongsheng discovered something strange: Fang Zhuo, who seldom left the cafeteria, was not there today.
"Where have you been?" Jia Dongsheng muttered, and without waiting any longer, he turned around and left, heading to the administrative building to find Li Huaide.
"Knock, knock, knock."
I knocked on the door again, and fortunately, Li Huaide was still there.
"Come in."
Following the response from inside the room, Jia Dongsheng pushed the door and walked in. To his surprise, Fang Zhuo was also in the office.
"Dongsheng, come and sit down."
Every time Jia Dongsheng came to see him, Li Huaide would show great enthusiasm, which made Fang Zhuo a little envious.
He could be considered a die-hard supporter of Li Huaide in the factory, but every time he came, he would only get a smile from Li Huaide, and then he would sit down and talk about business.
But when Jia Dongsheng came in, Li Huaide would stand up and warmly invite Jia Dongsheng to sit down and talk. How could he not be jealous of such unequal treatment?
Even Fang Zhuo knew very well that the reason he was promoted to deputy factory director was entirely to make room for Jia Dongsheng. If it weren't for Jia Dongsheng, the position of deputy factory director would not have been his.
Although the deputy director of the branch factory is also at the section chief level, and the canteen director is also at the section chief level, it is unrealistic and impossible for the canteen director to be promoted to factory director in one step.
