Canteen No. 1, kitchen.
After teaching Nan Yi how to make vegetarian meat, Jia Dongsheng became relaxed again. While others were busy, he drank tea and read books.
As the kitchen team leader, of course I can't do everything myself, otherwise what's the point of striving for progress?
Unfortunately, the leisurely life did not last long, or rather, it lasted less than three days.
Starting from the afternoon of the third day, he took part in the battle himself.
The arms of the staff led by Liu Lan were all swollen one after another, and then, no one in the kitchen knew how to roll out the noodles.
There's no way around it. Canteen No. 1 has the fewest people among all the canteens.
Correspondingly, there are even fewer people who know how to roll out dough.
Faced with such a situation, Jia Dongsheng, the chef team leader of the No. 1 canteen, had no choice but to take over.
There’s no other way. Five days and 700,000 dumplings. Yes, 700,000 dumplings.
After discussing with Jia Dongsheng, Fang Zhuo felt that the original amount of 500,000 was not enough, so he increased it to 700,000.
Seventy per person, this number is definitely enough.
There are eight canteens, with an average of 90,000 dumplings in each canteen. Of course, this is the average number.
There are fewer people in Canteen No. 1, so they were only allocated the task quota of making 50,000 dumplings.
However, to make 50,000 dumplings, 10,000 have to be made in a day. This large number of tasks is also very stressful for the kitchen staff.
Especially since Liu Lan and other noodle chefs had been busy for two consecutive days and their arms were already slightly swollen, the pressure was even greater.
What can Jia Dongsheng do when faced with heavy tasks and workers being injured?
I can only do it myself.
Then......
For the first time, Jia Dongsheng hated his physical condition a little bit. It prevented him from lying down, being lazy, and living a leisurely life.
For two consecutive days, he rolled out the dumpling wrappers and didn't feel any arm pain at all. And then, nothing happened.
Since you don't feel uncomfortable, there is no need to rest. Just keep rolling.
However, precisely because Jia Dongsheng demonstrated extraordinary abilities, the progress of making dumplings in Canteen No. 1 accelerated.
Of the 50,000 dumplings, 7,000 were made on the first day, 10,000 on the second day, and with Jia Dongsheng's participation on the third day, the number soared to 12,000. On the fourth day, after Jia Dongsheng fully participated, the number suddenly increased to 17,000.
Rolling the dumpling wrappers is the most tiring job. Many people need to take a break after rolling them for a while, but Jia Dongsheng doesn't need to rest.
Therefore, the more dumpling wrappers you roll out, the faster you can make them.
After the last morning, when I got off work yesterday, there were only 4,000 left to reach 50,000, and it was completely completed at 10:30.
"Oh, it's finally over."
Jia Dongsheng threw the rolling pin on the table, stretched himself hard, and looked relaxed.
But, deep down, he was thinking.
Stuffing machine, dough pressing machine, dough mixer, noodle machine. If we had these machines, would it still take four or five days to make 50,000 dumplings?
Is it really necessary to make your arms swollen from exhaustion?
However, these machines are not available in China or even abroad!
Therefore, he couldn't help but think that if the steel mill could manufacture these machines, then not only would the steel mill be able to achieve noodle freedom and dumpling freedom, but it could also use the machines to deliver goods abroad and earn some foreign exchange. How great would that be.
However, he only knew about these machines but not the principles behind them.
Of course, it doesn’t matter if you don’t know. Many things are developed bit by bit from a concept.
Thinking of this, he felt that it was time to study with Suzuki Kayo. This woman had profound knowledge in steel machinery.
If I can communicate with her properly, I should be able to make the machine with the help of Suzuki Kayo.
Just as he was thinking about it, Fang Zhuo ran in hurriedly: "Dongsheng, Dongsheng, come quickly, follow me."
No, I just wanted to drink some water. What are you doing?
Looking at Fang Zhuo who was pulling his arm and walking out, Jia Dongsheng was stunned. What was the matter?
"I say, Lao Fang, take it easy, don't be in a hurry."
"No hurry?"
Fang Zhuo was about to get furious, but he didn't expect Jia Dongsheng to be so slow. He immediately said anxiously, "Dongsheng, the factory is in such a mess, can you please move faster?"
"What's going on?"
Jia Dongsheng had been busy making dumplings these days, so he only heard that the workers in the factory were a little dissatisfied, but he didn't know anything else.
Or, I'm too busy to know.
So, he looked at Fang Zhuo with some confusion: "What's the matter? It's just making dumplings. Our cafeteria has already made them. There's no need to rush."
"Have you finished making dumplings in the cafeteria?"
Fang Zhuo, who was originally in a hurry to pull Jia Dongsheng upstairs, suddenly paused, his face full of joy: "Are you really done packing?"
"I've finished packing." Jia Dongsheng smiled and said, "No need to rush this time, right?"
"What's the point of you packing it all by yourself? Not only have other cafeterias not packed it all, they're still a lot short of it."
Originally, Fang Zhuo had a happy expression on his face, but Jia Dongsheng's words of "don't worry" made Fang Zhuo anxious again. He just heard him say, "Dongsheng, did you know that the workers in our factory have gone on strike?"
"strike?"
When these words came out, Jia Dongsheng blinked and asked in confusion: "Just because you haven't eaten dumplings yet?"
"Not really!"
"Not really?" Fang Zhuo originally thought that it would not be so, but the fact was that the workers had already gone on strike, and he still didn't understand how things had come to this point without even having a meal of dumplings.
