Chapter 17: Being With You Makes Me Feel Secure

ht, you could just put a sack over this guy's head. With his current strength, if he didn't hold back, a few punches would send him straight to meet his grandmother.For the better part of this aftern...Liu Limin's face was turning ugly on the side. Liu Ran seized the opportunity and spoke to the guest, "You have a discerning eye indeed. This pig's trotter is specially prepared by our Master He. Knowing you folks came from Yuecheng, he got up early this morning to buy it at Chaoyang Market. By the time I got to the kitchen, the soup was already simmering."

"In his words, your side emphasizes drinking old fire soup. There's also a saying, something like 'it's better to eat without vegetables than...' "

The one leading spoke, and a man behind him with spectacles took over, saying: "It's better to eat without vegetables than without soup. This master chef is truly thoughtful!"

Each of the four people in a row expressed their emotions deeply.

"Mr. Yang, Mr. Li, if I may be so bold, let's invite this master chef to join us for a toast!"

"Yeah! Look, this pig's trotters soup even has goji berries in it, what a treat! It's rare!"

General Yang laughed heartily and said, "Honored guests have traveled far and wide. This is all that our factory's logistics personnel should do!"

The leading guest shook his head and said, "You are too modest. This is the first time I've seen such authentic Cantonese cuisine outside of Guangdong. This table alone shows your company's sincerity!"

Can you not feel touched Last month, when I went to Jiangxi province, they immediately gave us a double-spicy treat. Don't even talk about the investigation, those days my buddies and I were all huddled in the squat toilet next to the guesthouse, our legs turned to jelly after what we had been through. We didn't dare to eat outside, so we could only munch on steamed buns with boiled water. Compared to this, the difference in treatment is too damn huge!

Originally, some people were still worried that something unexpected might happen when they returned to Sijiucheng this time. Unexpectedly, they are back home!

Mr. Yang, the factory director, and Mr. Sun, the secretary, were delighted to hear this. They never expected that before even leading anyone on a tour of the workshop, this table of dishes would have already earned the steel rolling mill a good impression!

He Yuzhu in the canteen is truly skilled!

I only knew this person was good at Sichuan cuisine, but I didn't expect them to be so knowledgeable about Cantonese cuisine!

Although Factory Director Li had a smile on his face, in his heart he was already paying respects to Liu Limin's eight generations of ancestors.

Several customers said the dishes cooked at this table were very well-prepared. Liu Ran also said that even He Yuzhu went to the market early this morning to buy pig trotters for this pot of soup at his own expense. He really put all his heart into cooking, but when it comes out of your mouth, Liu Limin, it becomes a lack of seriousness and diligence at work, and you were just flirting with Liu Ran instead, weren't you You say he's flirting with pig trotters; how much do you believe that yourself!

He couldn't figure out why Liu Limin, that son of a bitch, had run over to him earlier. It must have been something they had between them, and this Liu Limin was planning on using him to get rid of He Yuzhu!

Fortunately, I held back from speaking earlier, otherwise I would be the laughingstock right now.

You, Liu Limin, are such a bastard! You think you can use yourself as a gun If I don't settle this score with you, then my position as factory manager is for nothing!

Looking at Deputy Factory Manager Li's expression that was more fake than real, Liu Limin's heart sank. However, he didn't dare to pick any faults with the dishes anymore this time around.

The guest said yes, the factory director said yes, what does this head chef's opinion even matter

My goodness, when did this Silly Zhu become so good at cooking Cantonese cuisine

........

Liu Yan walked with the wind, jogging all the way back to the kitchen. She lifted the white curtain and shouted at He Yuzhu: "Master He, it's amazing! Several guests specifically asked to see you, they all praised your cooking!"

At this, He Yuzhu grinned and said, "Well then, according to what you're saying, I should be exempt from being ordered around by that Liu fellow to clean the toilets this time, right"

Liu Lan rolled her eyes and said, “He wouldn't dare even if he had ten times the courage! The guest even wants to toast you! Go quickly, they're waiting for you there!”

He Yuzhu nodded and winked at Liu Lan, then leaned in and whispered: "I left half a scoop of braised pork and half a scoop of marinated duck gizzards in your lunchbox. Don't make a fuss about it, from now on, whenever there's a special meal, you'll get this treatment."

Liu Lan exclaimed in surprise, “Oh my, Master He, this isn’t right, is it I’m not the one in charge of cooking, so how could I possibly do that”

Such good things have never happened to her before, let alone her, Liu Ran. Even Sha Zhu's apprentices haven't been treated this well!

Tsk tsk tsk, what a silly Zhu! Master He is so capable, those customers even worship him before tasting his dishes. This isn't something an ordinary person can do, right

He Yuzhu waved his hand: "There's nothing inappropriate about it. I have the final say in this canteen, just take it with peace of mind. When I take private jobs in the second half of the year, if you're willing to come along, I'll give you five cents per job, plus two packed meals!"

This job is a good one! Liu Ran nodded with delight: “There’s nothing to be unhappy about, working with you makes me feel at ease!”

Okay then, that's settled!

Liu Ran nodded vigorously, like pounding garlic: "Definitely, definitely! Don't worry, from now on if anyone with the surname Liu tries to make things difficult for you again, I and Ma Hua will report it to the deputy factory manager. I really don't believe that our factory doesn't have a place to reason!"

He Yuzhu greeted Liu Lan with a happy smile and then rushed into the private room.

.......

"Factory Manager, are you looking for me"

He Yuzhu kept talking while glancing at the table. Good fellow, his movements were fast enough! Just a few moments ago, several plates had already been cleared!

"Factory Director Yang beamed with pride and said, 'Master He, please don't be so reserved! Today you are a great hero of our factory! Come on, let me introduce you. These guests came all the way from Yuecheng. They want to discuss these recipes with Master He!'"

Without waiting for him to give an order, Xiao Wang, the secretary standing nearby, had already poured a glass of wine.

Several guests stood up one after another.

"Master He, I raise this glass to you. This white-cut chicken is simply superb! The chicken meat is tender and refreshing, juicy and plump. The sauce is also first-rate, a truly authentic Cantonese flavor, even better than the famous old establishments in our area!"

“The steamed perch is also delicious, the fish meat is so tender, the heat control is really skillful, and the black bean sauce is well-balanced. I haven't eaten such authentic Cantonese cuisine outside for a long time. Just now, your factory manager Yang told me that your specialty is Sichuan cuisine, I wouldn't believe it even if you killed me!”

He Yuzhu was "surprised and delighted": "Praise from esteemed guests! This is all part of my job, you don't have to praise me so much. The two factory directors and the secretary usually teach us to put the needs of our customers first, especially our Deputy Factory Manager Li, who even specially instructed the colleagues in the logistics department to send the ingredients to our kitchen ahead of time, otherwise I wouldn't have had so much time to prepare!". Wasn't this wasting good foodHe Yuzhu burst into laughter and shoved the popsicle back into her hand, saying with a smile, "You keep it for yourself! I don't fancy something so sweet!"Liu Yan stared...
