Chapter 146 Canteen Reorganization
The new deputy director took office, and Uncle Zhou started packing things after handing over the work. Not long after, Zhou Jianye brought the news that Uncle Zhou had left Sijiucheng to take up a post in the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
The new deputy director, Director Li, had been peacefully for a month, and everyone thought that Director Li would not make trouble, but he began to make big moves.
First, Director Wang of the Logistics Department was transferred, then the Purchasing Department was reorganized, and finally the canteen did not escape this disaster.
As soon as he got to work early in the morning, Director Zhao announced that he would have a meeting in the restaurant in 5 minutes.
He Yuzhu had something to go home after lunch yesterday. He thought something happened yesterday afternoon, so he asked Master Song: "What's going on? There was a meeting suddenly. Did something happen yesterday afternoon?"
Master Song didn't know either: "No. It's the same as usual."
He Yuzhu: "Then let's hurry over and have a meeting."
Everyone had to put down their work and go to the restaurant to prepare for the meeting.
When they came to the restaurant, everyone gathered together in twos and threes to chat. Discussing what Director Zhao will talk about this meeting?
Master Yang from the big kitchen saw Master Song and He Yuzhu approaching and came over.
Master Yang knew that Master Song had the best information, so he asked: "Master Song, do you know what the director is going to do in the meeting?"
Master Song really didn't know anything this time, so he replied without any hesitation: "I don't know."
When Master Yang saw Master Song, he answered without any hesitation. It was different from his usual reaction. In the past, Master Song would gossip if he didn't know. This time, he didn't hesitate at all. He just thought that Master Song must know something. That's not good. Speaking out, he quickly took out a cigarette and lit it for Master Song: "Master Song, you must know something. Tell me about it. I will definitely not tell anyone."
Master Song said helplessly: "I really don't know this time. If you don't believe me, ask Master He. Master He asked me just now. I also said I don't know."
He Yuzhu: "Yes. That's what Master Song told me just now."
At this time, Director Zhao walked in, and He Yuzhu said quickly: "Director Zhao is here. You will know in a moment."
When Master Yang saw this, there was no need to ask. He would know after the meeting.
When Director Zhao saw that everyone was here, he prepared for the meeting: "Everyone is here, let's have a meeting now."
Director Zhao simply conveyed what the leaders meant, roughly speaking: Many comrades responded that the quality of the food was poor, the spoons shook when cooking, and people in the canteen ate more and occupied more. After cooking, pick the dishes first. Set aside. Some are brought home.
Director Zhao: "Everyone knows that the Procurement Department has been rectified before. Now it is our canteen's turn. Next, Deputy Director Li will rectify the canteen. I hope everyone will cooperate."
After saying that, he left in a hurry regardless of everyone's reaction.
It seemed that he had misunderstood Deputy Director Li. Before, He Yuzhu subconsciously thought that he was not a good person because he had some relationship with the Gao family. I didn't expect him to be very serious and responsible about his work.
Although He Yuzhu is also a member of the canteen and one of the people who benefited. But He Yuzhu did not object to Deputy Director Li's rectification of canteen discipline. After all, some people really go too far. It's just that it doesn't matter to him, the little cook, there is no need to offend anyone.
Back in the kitchen, everyone didn't take it seriously. After all, if you don't straighten it out, it will work for a while, and then it won't take long for it to return to its original state. Everyone is used to it. And this is a small kitchen for cooking for the bureau leaders. Whoever has nothing to do to shake a spoon for the leader will offend others. Then there is only one last problem left, the problem of bringing food home.
He Yuzhu has no shortage of leftovers at all, but everyone is bringing them home. If you don't bring them, you just don't fit in with the group. Maybe someone will report you and check the situation at your home. So when the food is good, He Yuzhu will save some and take it back.
Master Song has a large family to support, and he brings a lot of food home every day.
Master Song returned to the kitchen and said to He Yuzhu with a sigh: "Alas. The family is going to have another few days of hard life."
He Yuzhu: "Isn't that serious? Master Song. With your salary level, we have to live a hard life. What will the other people in the kitchen do?"
Master Song: "Master He, you have a high salary and a small family, so your life is certainly easy. Although my salary is high, but there are so many people in the family, it is not enough."
How to continue with this?
He Yuzhu: "Be patient. It will get better after a while. Don't hit the gun now. Otherwise, you will lose your job and your life will be even more difficult."
During this period, Director Zhao also came to the kitchen to check on the work and emphasized shaking the spoon and bringing food home.
Master Song approached Director Zhao: "Director, how long will it take this time?"
Director Zhao: "Who knows this? Master Song, please emphasize to the others that it is okay to leave it alone during normal times. Don't make any mistakes during this period. After all, Deputy Director Li also comes to this small canteen to eat."
Master Song: "Don't worry, Director."
The day passed like this under Director Zhao's repeated instructions.
When it was time to get off work, He Yuzhu immediately picked up his backpack and went to the carport to push his bicycle. Pushing the cart, I walked to the gate of the Municipal Bureau and saw Director Zhao and Deputy Director Li standing at the door, wondering what they were doing.
When He Yuzhu arrived at the gate, Director Zhao called out: "Zhuzhu. Come here."
He Yuzhu approached and saw Director Zhao's ugly face, so he asked: "Director, what's wrong with Director Zhao?"
Director Zhao said awkwardly: "It's nothing. I just want to ask what you have in your backpack?"
As soon as he heard this, He Yuzhu understood that this was Deputy Director Li dragging Director Zhao here to conduct a surprise inspection on the people in the cafeteria?
Faced with this situation, He Yuzhu certainly did not feel guilty. He had the space to stay close to him, and it was not up to him to decide what was in the bag. What's more, there is nothing shameful in his backpack.
He Yuzhu took off the backpack and handed it to Director Zhao: "Hey. There is nothing, just the apron I wear for work. Take it back and wash it, and some of my personal belongings."
The person next to him, who was from the security department, reached out to take it, opened his backpack, and poured the contents of the backpack onto the table for inspection. In addition to the apron, there are two boxes of tea and a set of knives belonging to He Yuzhu.
The guard pointed at the knife: "Explain it."
He Yuzhu looked confused: "Explain what? What happened to my cook carrying a kitchen knife?"
Guard: "I'm asking you why you brought the knives from the kitchen back? Did you want to keep them for yourself?"
He Yuzhu was angry: "Why do you want to keep it for yourself? This is my own sword. Look carefully to see if there is my name on the sword, He Yuzhu."
At this time, Director Zhao spoke: "Director, Master He thinks that the knives in our cafeteria are not easy to use, so he always uses his own knives. Everyone else in the kitchen knows this."
Deputy Director Li picked up the knife and looked at it. He Yuzhu's name was indeed on the knife, so he put it down and nodded to the guard. Although I misunderstood Master He, he was a small cook and did not deserve his apology.
Now that it was clarified, the guard put He Yuzhu's things back into the bag and returned them to He Yuzhu.
He Yuzhu grabbed the backpack and said, "Can I go?"
Seeing that Deputy Director Li was silent, Director Zhao smiled awkwardly at He Yuzhu and said, "That's all."
Without saying a word, He Yuzhu got on his bicycle and left.
