"Little He, how is it? There's no problem with these dishes, right? You must bring out your best craftsmanship.”
In the bright kitchen, Factory Manager Yang was seriously reminding them.
He Yuzhu didn't reply and just looked at the dishes in the kitchen.
There was nothing special about them. They were all very ordinary.
Cabbage, white radish, carrot, potato, eggplant, all gone.
"Are there no other ingredients?"
He Yuzhu felt strange and asked for confirmation.
To be honest, it was not as good as the canteen in the factory. There was a lot of chicken, duck, and fish in the freezer there.
There wasn't any meat here.
It wasn't that there wasn't any, but there was a little bit of meat oil and oil residue.
"No, that's all." Manager Yang shook his head.
The middle-aged auntie, who was watching silently from the side, interrupted,"Little Master, I'll have to trouble you to make it as delicious as possible.”
"Alright."
He Yuzhu nodded and didn't say much. He pondered over what to cook and began to prepare the dishes.
With just a few vegetables, no matter how good his culinary skills were, he could not make a Manchu Han Imperial Feast.
However, the simpler it was, the more it tested the control of the fire.
For a chef, condiments and ingredients were very important, but even more important was the heat control.
This was what He Yuzhu, who had maxed out his culinary skills, was best at.
However, he didn't use his maximum level cooking skills. He used level 4, 99 experience, and the dishes he made were very simple.
He cut the carrots into shreds and mixed them into a salad. This was a dish.
He cut the radish into pieces, heated the meat oil in the pot, and cooked a radish soup.
Stewed cabbage with oil dregs, just make do.
The last dish was slightly more troublesome. After the potatoes and eggplants were greased, the eggplants were stewed with potatoes.
Three dishes and one soup were done in one go. The auntie at the side was dazzled by the scene and smiled.
"I don't know if the dishes you cook are delicious or not, but when I see you cook, I think it's very, very, very beautiful! I was at a loss for words and didn't know how to describe it. In any case, it felt especially natural. It looked very comfortable and relaxed.”
"Sister-in-law, you're talking about art, right?”
Manager Yang continued," The ancients said that one must choose one thing to be good at. I've eaten Xiao He's dishes many times, but this is the first time I've seen him cook. His every move is extremely natural and coherent, as if every step has been practiced thousands of times. It's just right. There's an incomparable harmony and naturalness that makes people enjoy it more and more the more they watch.”
“……”
He Yuzhu was a little stunned. This was the first time he had heard that cooking could be said to be so simple.
Forget it, it was all praise anyway. If he knew how to say it, he would say more.
"Hehe, I don't know how to say it like you do, but it's more or less what you mean.”
The auntie smiled and said," The dishes are ready. Let's go over first. It's time to eat."”
"Sister-in-law, I won't go over."
Manager Yang looked a little guilty. The auntie smiled and shook her head. She did not force him. She called a young man in a Chinese tunic suit over and brought the dishes out together.
After the dishes were done, they were taken away.
Manager Yang paced back and forth in the kitchen. He Yuzhu found it strange and asked,
"Manager, aren't we leaving now?”
"Wait a moment."
Manager Yang shook his head and said solemnly,"Little He, do you remember what I told you before?”
"Got it."
"I went to your house to cook today." He Yuzhu blinked.”
"Alright, it's good that you remember."
Manager Yang smiled and nodded." Xiao He, how many years have you been working? What's your salary now?" he asked.”
"I started working when I was 18. It's been six years now.”
He Yuzhu said truthfully.
Since he had asked, he felt that Factory Manager Yang would most likely help him raise his salary.
Different from the production workshop, the cooks were part of the logistics and another salary system.
From the first to the eighth grade in the production workshop, the salary of the eighth grade workers was the highest, even higher than the factory manager. Every one of them was a big shot, and there were at most one or two in each factory. Some places didn't even have one.
Cooks were different. The first to tenth grades were the opposite. The first grade had the highest salary, and the tenth grade had the lowest salary.
"After working for six years and three years as an apprentice, you can get a seventh-tier salary.”
Manager Yang thought for a moment and said.
You can make the arrangements.
He Yuzhu nodded. The salary of a seventh-grader wasn't bad either. It was 41.5 yuan per month. With the two-yuan class monitor allowance, it was 43.5 yuan.
His identity as a tall, rich, and handsome man was even more well-deserved.
As the two of them were talking, the auntie came back.
"How is it?" Manager Yang asked with anticipation.”
"I was busy with work and didn't want to eat. After taking a bite, my appetite was greatly increased. I've already eaten two cornbread.”
The auntie's eyes were red. She looked at He Yuzhu and said seriously,"Little Master, thank you. I don't know how to thank you.”
As the auntie spoke, she stepped forward and stuffed a ticket into He Yuzhu's hand.
He Yuzhu took a look and saw that it was a half catty of meat. Although he was envious, he still declined,
"No need, I don't need it."
"Take it. I'll have to trouble you to come twice a week in the future.”
"Do you think it's too little?" The auntie pretended to blame her.”
"No, no."
He Yuzhu quickly shook his head and told the truth," I really don't need it. I'm a little lazy. I have to queue early in the morning to buy meat, and I can't get up every time. Even if you give it to me, it'll be expired."”
"You really don't eat well.”
The auntie shook her head in amusement. She held He Yuzhu's hand that was holding the ticket tightly and reminded him,"You can buy it if you wake up earlier.”
At the side, Manager Yang couldn't stand it anymore and winked at He Yuzhu.
He Yuzhu saw the look in Manager Yang's eyes, but he didn't know if he wanted to accept it or reject it.
However, he had already declined several times and it was indeed not good to decline again. He Yuzhu accepted the ticket.
On the way back,
He Yuzhu was silent.
Factory Manager Yang was also very silent as he drove.
After a long time, he said,"It's not bad for you to take the ticket. If you don't take it, it'll be expired."”
He Yuzhu didn't know what to say for a moment. She looked at the ticket silently.
For some reason, he wanted to collect it.
