There was actually five dollars in the envelope.
This made Zhou Zheng even more confused.
"It's like this, last time you went to the county party committee compound to cook, County Chief Zhang thought highly of you.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and every household has to prepare New Year’s Eve dinner.
So County Magistrate Zhang specifically kept me that day and asked me to convey a message to you, hoping that you could go and help County Magistrate Zhang and go to his house to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner.
What do you think?
As for him, he might go to the city in a while.
You also know that he is still very talkative in the county.
If you want, you can also be a temporary worker in the county.
When you have a regular job, it won’t be impossible for you to become a regular employee.”
Zhou is considering the feasibility of this statement.
In fact, it is not impossible, it just depends on whether he is willing.
His cooking skills are heavenly.
Even the most ordinary ingredients can become delicious in his hands. This is his specialty.
Village chief Hu gave him five dollars as a deposit.
"I hope you will try not to refuse. After all, your father-in-law is still a soldier under him."
What Mayor Hu meant by this was that if Zhou Zheng did not know what was good for him, it would affect many people.
Zhou Zheng naturally understood this truth.
He looked up at Mayor Hu and said:
“It’s just cooking, there’s nothing to refuse.
I'll go."
"That's right, Xiao Zhou, you are a promising talent, I am very optimistic about you.
You will definitely be better than your father-in-law in the future."
Zhou Zheng did not comment, stood up and took the five yuan from Village Chief Hu.
There just so happens to be a supply and marketing cooperative nearby, I'll go buy some things there later.
Liu Yu, Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba were also waiting for him to come.
Zhou Zheng agreed to cook New Year's Eve dinner for County Magistrate Zhang's family.
But not on New Year’s Eve.
Instead, it is brought forward to the 27th or 28th of the twelfth lunar month.
After all, on New Year's Eve, Zhou Zheng still had to come to the Fu family to celebrate the New Year.
What’s even more exciting is that during the Chinese New Year, Liu Yu’s two older brothers in the army will also come.
Then the family can be reunited.
After Zhou Zheng left the office of Mayor Hu, Liu Qi came over with a nervous look on his face:
"Is Mayor Hu not giving you any trouble?"
The reason for asking this was mainly because of Zhou Zheng’s background, and he was afraid that the local officials would use it to make a fuss.
In fact, Zhou Zheng was not embarrassed, but was invited to be the chef.
He shook the five dollars and said to Liu Qiyu:
"Dad, this is the reward that County Magistrate Zhang gave me to cook the New Year's Eve dinner for him.
What do you think? "
"Five dollars? That's so much?"
"I heard that this is only half. I can take the other half after I finish cooking."
In other words, County Magistrate Zhang paid him ten yuan to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner.
In any case, this is also a recognition of Zhou Zheng's craftsmanship.
Liu Qi also patted Zhou Zheng's shoulder excitedly:
"I've always said you'd be great, kid."
But Zhou Zheng disagrees:
"Dad, I'm just helping with the cooking. There's nothing much to do."
"That's not necessarily true, anyway, Dad is optimistic about you.
Go talk to Xiaoyu and let her be happy for you too."
"Well, Dad, I want to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things to bring back to you."
"Go ahead, it's what you should do."
Liu Qi planned to wait for him on the tractor.
But Zhou Zheng pulled him along.
Liu Qi couldn't stop him, so he really followed him.
This supply and marketing cooperative has a wide variety of goods, and there is also a section that specializes in collecting agricultural and sideline products.
