On Sunday, He Yuzhu was ready to go shopping again. This time, he was mainly buying tea leaves, sugar, high-end ingredients, and miscellaneous goods.
After he was done with his makeup, he prepared a set of work permits and a letter of recommendation from the government affairs bureau. Then, he found a high-end hotel in Dazhalan and booked a suite.
After he was ready, he first went to a sizable tea shop next to Zhengyang Gate. He picked out the best Longjing tea, Dahongpao tea, Puer tea, Zhengshan tea, Keqi tea, and Dianhong tea and bought a total of 200 catties. He also bought 20 catties of ordinary Longjing tea and jasmine tea.
It was said that half a catty of the Nine Dragon's Nest Da Hong Pao had cost him 200 yuan. However, 20 grams of the Nine Dragon's Nest Da Hong Pao in the future had been auctioned for 156,800 yuan. It was worth it for him to buy half a catty. These high-end tea leaves were all beautifully packaged. There were porcelain cans, tin cans, and even silver cans.
Then, he went to the department store to buy a few thermos bottles, aluminum kettles, a coal stove, and a few large and small iron pots.
Then, he found a commercial house that sold a wide range of goods and bought a lot of high-end ingredients, such as net abalone and gold coin fish jelly. He also bought a lot of ordinary abalone, fish jelly, sea cucumber, and shark's fin. He bought 100 catties of white sugar, rock sugar, and brown sugar each. He asked the shop assistant to send it to his room.
At this time, there were also private businesses, so it was relatively convenient to buy these things. Moreover, top-notch ingredients such as authentic Wei Nation net abalone and money fish glue could also be bought. In fact, during this period, many capitalists still enjoyed an extremely luxurious life.
Especially before the arrival of the ticket era, there were businessmen who even spent 16,000 yuan (the relevant reports stated that it was the old currency, which was 160 million yuan for the first set) to treat people to a meal. Therefore, some high-end luxury goods and ingredients were relatively easy to buy, unlike in the future, where top-notch ingredients were basically auctioned.
He was busy until four in the afternoon. He Yuzhu returned to the hotel and put all the things sent by the shop assistant into the system backpack. He carried two thermos bottles and a bag of vegetables and pork back to the courtyard house.
Rainwater was reading at home. She was very happy to see her brother come back with two thermos bottles. She reached out and took the thermos bottles."Brother, this red peony thermos bottle belongs to me, in case I get thirsty from reading at night and can't drink hot water.”
He Yuzhu laughed and teased," Hehe, you can't even drink hot water. You make it sound like I'm treating you badly. Take it. As long as you like it." I'll make your favorite braised pork tonight. Later, you can help the old lady over for dinner.”
Ever since He Yuzhu had transmigrated, she had bought all three meals for the Deaf Old Lady. However, her relationship with Yi Zhonghai was not as close as in the original drama. She felt that Yi Zhonghai was too sentimental and liked to kidnap people. He Yuzhu did not want to get involved with them over some family matters, so she decided to stay away from them.
At night, He Yuzhu lay in bed and thought about it carefully. This big purchase did not reveal any flaws, so it should not attract the attention of others. At the same time, he felt that this big purchase could basically guarantee the quality of life for the next few years. He roughly calculated that he spent a total of 5,000 yuan.
He looked at the money column in his Backpack and saw that he still had 15,650 yuan. He wanted to exchange for a few more sets of good quality first sets of yuan and save them for when the price increased by 400,000 times. That was really not a problem of money. He just liked the feeling of being able to increase his items by hundreds of thousands of times.
The first set of RMB was the first set of RMB issued by the People's Bank of China on December 1st, 1948. The whole set had 62 versions and 12 kinds of face value. The smallest face value was one yuan, and the largest face value was 50,000 yuan. The total face value was 176552 yuan.
In the future, the first set of the big set had risen to more than seven million yuan, and the quality of the set was even higher.
He remembered that he had helped a bank leader's child cook a wedding banquet before the new year. He Yuzhu wanted to ask him to help change into twenty sets one day. In March, he would exchange them for the second set of RMB. He had to hurry up.
Early the next morning, He Yuzhu finished cooking and knocked on the door next door."Rainwater, wake up soon."
After a while, He Yushui came out of the house yawning. He Yuzhu said to her,""Didn't you say that you would get up by yourself if you put the clock in your room? Why do I have to wake you up every day?"
" It's not an alarm clock." He Yushui rolled her eyes." If you buy me an alarm clock, I can wake up by myself every day."”
He Yuzhu chuckled." Alright, I'll buy you an alarm clock tomorrow. Then you can be self-aware." Remember to send breakfast to the old lady later.”
" I know," Rainwater said impatiently." He's been nagging like an old man."”
He Yuzhu patted her head." What are you talking about? Why do you have so many weird things to say?"”
When they arrived at the canteen of the rolling mill, He Yuzhu checked the menu for the day and checked the ingredients. Then, he began to make steamed buns with his family.
There were nearly ten thousand workers in the Red Star Rolling Mill. If an average person ate three steamed buns, a meal would cost thirty thousand steamed buns.
The people in the canteen were really working hard. Every morning was like a war. Of course, the small canteen didn't cook dinner, so there wasn't much to do in the afternoon.
He remembered that there were machines for kneading dough and making steamed buns in the future. He wanted to see if he could make it later.
The dough kneader was very simple. It was similar to a cement kneader. It only had a motor and a stainless steel bucket. If these two could be solved, there would be no problem. The steamed bun maker had to think carefully.
After making the steamed buns, He Yuzhu rested. During this period of time, he had been instructing other chefs to cook big pot dishes. Now, he could basically get rid of them.
He made a cup of tea and sat on his special chair. He took out a notebook and began to draw the sketch of the dough kneader.
After lunch, He Yuzhu saw that there was nothing else to do, so he went to the maintenance workshop. When they arrived at the machine repair workshop, He Yuzhu found an old worker in his forties. He was the first to ask him to cook for the wedding banquet. He was a senior fitter in the machine repair workshop.
When Master Liu saw He Yuzhu, he greeted her with a smile,"Yo, Chef He, what brings you here today?”
"Master Liu, I'm here to ask you for a favor. Are you free now?" He Yuzhu asked.”
When Master Liu heard this, he said directly,"I'm free now. If there's anything, just say it."”
He Yuzhu took out his notebook and showed it to Master Liu. He had never learned mechanical drawing, so he only drew it according to the general three-dimensional perspective drawing.
He Yuzhu pointed at the picture on the notebook and explained the principle and general structure of the dough kneader to Master Liu. Then, he asked Master Liu if he could make it.
Master Liu looked at He Yuzhu's sketch and pondered for a while before saying,"It's not difficult to make this. It's just that the stainless steel tank can't be made. Right now, stainless steel materials can't be obtained. Our country has only been able to produce it in the past two years, and the output is very small.”
"Then can you make it with jujube wood? This shaft is also made of jujube wood." He Yuzhu asked him again.
Master Liu thought for a moment and said," That's not a problem. We can combine them together. However, you'll have to find a carpenter master to do it."”
"Alright then, I'll let our director know first. This is business.”
He Yuzhu continued," I'll ask if you can do it first. If you can, I'll go to the director and ask him to get approval from the leader."”
He Yuzhu then went back to the cafeteria to look for Director Lin. When they arrived at the canteen director's office, He Yuzhu looked for Director Lin.""Director, I have something to tell you.”
Director Lin looked at He Yuzhu in surprise. He did not know why He Yuzhu was looking for him at this time, so he asked,"You're still in the cafeteria at this time today. Why are you looking for me?”
He Yuzhu pursed her lips and thought to herself, I didn't even get paid for working overtime at the reception. I usually leave early for nothing and I don't like it.
But on the surface, he still said in a good tone,"I see that the time for kneading dough in the kitchen is very tight every day, and there are only so many people, especially those big canteens.
"I've developed a dough kneader and want to see if I can make it and try it. I might need to use some materials and manpower for experiments. Can you ask the factory leader for support? This is also to improve the work efficiency of our canteen.”
Director Lin took He Yuzhu's notebook and looked at it for a long time, but he still could not understand it. He said,"Why don't you write a report? If I can't understand it, the factory leader won't understand it either.”
"Alright, then I'll go back and write it up for you tomorrow.”
