February 2nd, 2059.

It was a new day.

Ma Hua woke up from the space and looked at the time on the panel. It was six o'clock in the morning.

It wasn't time to go to work yet, so Ma Hua didn't go out immediately! The temperature outside was too low, so he planned to get up at seven.

Ma Hua looked around. The wheat field in the space had not sprouted yet, so it looked a little barren.

Not far away was the vegetable field. There were all kinds of colorful vegetables, and the lush leaves looked so lively.

The dozen or so common fruit trees did not change much, but the leaves became much denser.

There were no other livestock in the half mu of pasture that had been reserved.

The furniture that Ma Hua bought last night had already cost him a few months of his salary.

He was only an apprentice before, and he received an apprentice's salary.

Ma Hua didn't ask for money from his parents because he had already separated from them.

Although he couldn't fall asleep, he still lay quietly on the ground. Smelling the fragrance from the surrounding soil, he appeared to be somewhat satisfied.

Ma Hua did not plan to make breakfast. As a cook, his breakfast was prepared in the canteen and was free of charge. This was why cooks were called the Eight Great Members!

Ma Hua hummed a light melody,"

"Playing the concertinas happily, now we will perform the Eight Great Members. The eight members are not simple, cooks…"

This was a song that was specially written to describe and praise the Eight Great Members of this era.

Ma Hua, who had been lying on the ground for a long time, estimated the time and suddenly got up. His clothes were not stained with much mud.

He left the small space without any reluctance.

As soon as he came out, Ma Hua shivered and jumped on the ground a few times to relieve the discomfort caused by the temperature difference.

"Looks like I have to put on more clothes when I leave the space. I'll put on my work clothes after I get used to it.”

Ma Hua immediately summarized his experience.

Most of the people in the courtyard had not gotten up yet. It was not time for the workshop workers to go out.

Ma Hua woke up so early because as a canteen cook, he had to arrive early.

She took the toiletries on the table and walked towards the faucet in the middle of the courtyard.

"Yes, Qin Huairu isn't here! Right, before Jia Dongxu hung up, she didn't seem to have so many clothes to wash!”

Ma Hua put down the basin, threw the towel behind him, and placed it on his right shoulder. He then began to brush his teeth.

At this moment, the courtyard house was a little cold, without the slightest bit of smoke.

As a boy, Ma Hua's washing speed was unimaginable to a lady.

"Less than three minutes!" Looking at the panel, Ma Hua wasn't very satisfied with the change in timing.

"The water is still a little cold, affecting my performance.”

Because he had nothing to do, Ma Hua was bored and was competing with him.

"However, you can't do everything in the space, especially washing up. If you take too long, it will cause misunderstandings!”

Although Ma Hua had a cheat, he was not invincible. He still had to pay attention to the details of life.

After washing up, Ma Hua went out to get ready for work. When he passed by the breakfast stall, he found a group of people arguing around the small vendor.

Ma Hua did not join in the fun. Combining the current time and future memories, he could vaguely guess the difference!

"What should come will come! The rest of the people would probably have a hard time in these three years!”

Ma Hua shook his head and stopped worrying about this.

"I'm just an ordinary chef. Why do I have to think so much? As long as your loved ones are safe!"

Ma Hua didn't hesitate at all and strode towards the rolling mill.

Ma Hua went to the fifth canteen after entering the factory.

As soon as she walked into the kitchen, she realized that some of the employees had already arrived.

Ma Hua was not anxious at all. He was not late, so what was there to be afraid of?

Moreover, Ma Hua was not an apprentice who could be fired easily.

Thinking back to when he was under He Daqing's hands, he chose to do whatever he wanted. Wasn't it just that he didn't have enough confidence!

Now that he had become an official worker, as long as he did not break the law and did his job well, the factory manager could not touch him!

The class monitor of the canteen, Master Li, was a level-eight cook. He had no inheritance and was from an unorthodox background.

However, after many years of cooking, he still reached the eighth grade. He earned about 39.5 yuan a month, of which two were the class monitor's allowance.

Seeing Ma Hua, Master Li was a little excited. He walked over and extended his hand to Ma Hua.

"Are you Comrade Ma Hua? I'm Li Guozhong, the person-in-charge of the fifth canteen. Everyone calls me Old Li. You can call me Old Li too!

I've talked to Chief Wang many times, hoping that we can transfer some people over. Look, we've been waiting for a long time, and there's finally a result!”

Ma Hua didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Master Li's enthusiasm.

Before he came, he was worried that Squad Leader Li would show his authority. Wasn't the original He Daqing like this?

However, Hua Ma hadn't expected this.

The other party's attitude was so friendly. What else could he say?

"Master Li is too polite! We are all comrades on the united front. I will do my job well. Don't worry!”

Squad Leader Li patted the table, attracting everyone's attention. He pulled Ma Hua's arm and introduced,"

"This is Master Ma, a level ten cook! From today onwards, you're all members of the Fifth Cafeteria.”

Ma Hua then introduced himself to the other employees.

Master Li began to assign tasks.

"You're an official chef. Normally, you don't have to worry about cutting vegetables. However, we don't have enough manpower now, so you have to work hard!”

As he spoke, he led Ma Hua to an empty stove.

"This will be your exclusive position from now on. Apprentices will not come here without permission! You can arrange the items here yourself!”

Ma Hua nodded and said,"

"Don't worry, Squad Leader Li. We are all serving the people. It is my responsibility to do my job well!”

Li Guozhong patted Ma Hua's left arm and turned to cut the cabbage himself.

The number of employees who came to the fifth canteen for lunch was about 500 to 600, so the processing of the ingredients for lunch took almost an entire morning!

Everyone worked until almost eleven o'clock in the afternoon, and there was still a portion that was not finished.

Squad Leader Li was not surprised. He shouted at the staff,

"Now, the apprentices will continue to process the ingredients. The waiters will start to check the hygiene of the table. The chef will prepare to stir-fry the dishes. Hurry up and move!"

Ma Hua and the other chefs washed their hands, dried them, and went up to the stove.

The waiter began to check the hygiene and turned on the insulation facilities for the food. He boiled water and heated it.

After a while, the kitchen was filled with smoke. Cabbage and potatoes were rolling in the pot, and the white and fat steamed buns were emitting the fragrance of hawthorn.

As big pots of stir-fried vegetables were brought out, Squad Leader Li tasted them one by one.

When it came to Ma Hua's work, Squad Leader Li secretly gave a thumbs up in his heart.

He was surprised by the cooking skills of this newcomer in the culinary world. He felt that Ma Hua's cooking seemed to be better than his!

Ma Hua didn't mind.

What a joke. How could a cooking skill that was close to the middle stage of Level 3 be ordinary?

When he reached the fourth level, he would be equivalent to a master.

Level 3 Big Pot Dish was considered the best in the factory!

At 11:30, they could see the workers walking towards the canteen from afar. After a while, there were long lines at the windows. One by one, four or five people gathered together to eat!

"Hey, there must be a new chef in the fifth canteen. The taste of this dish is not bad!”

Someone discovered Ma Hua's cooking skills.

"Yes, it's even better than Master Li's craftsmanship!”

Another worker also commented.

"Hey! Let me try it. No, this taste is almost the same as before? You make it sound so evil!"

Someone started to refute.

"You didn't get your food from window number two. Come, try mine!”

The workers who had just expressed their opinions were unhappy.

After tasting the dish, the man gave a thumbs up.

After lunch, it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon. The workers left the canteen one after another, leaving behind a mess!

Only then did the canteen staff rest and eat. They could not even raise their hands.

After the meal, the waiter began to clean up, and the apprentice took care of all the aftermath of the kitchen.

Cooks like Ma Hua started smoking, drinking tea, and chatting.

It was physical work for a chef to swing a big spoon!

……

The golden crow falls to the west,

Ma Hua was ready to go home. After greeting each other, he left.

After a day of work, Ma Hua was also a little tired.

The work of an official employee was not easy. He had to rest...
