Chapter 43 The Second Contact with Mr. Li

Clerk Li is now sorting out the logistics, with his main focus on the canteen.

If everything is just mentioned in passing, then it would be that Clerk Li has made a great contribution in this matter, as he has made very good arrangements for the expansion of the steel mill canteen and the supply of materials.

But in reality, you really can't do these things without some ability.

For example, at the current steel rolling mill, the canteen is managed by Manager Hu from Lou Bancheng.

In fact, Clerk Li is just a figurehead commander. For example, if Officer Yang, who is in charge of the production of the workshop, really wants to reorganize a workshop, he can just stop the production and gather all the workers together for study and training.

But the canteen cannot stop for a single day.

If it stops, what will the workers eat?
What's more, there are all kinds of bad people hiding in the dark, so Clerk Li has not found a way out of the situation yet.

This was quite tormenting for Li, an ambitious clerk.

Now that He Yuzhu has come in, he is considered the first soldier in Li Banshi's hands, so it is normal to pay a little more attention to him.

He Yuzhu asked, "Comrade Li, have you eaten yet? Otherwise, you can try it for the guards first. Although it is a simple meal, it is still very clean."

Clerk Li smiled and said, "I came here just for this. Comrade Xiao He, to be honest, I was in meetings all morning and I'm really hungry."

He Yuzhu heard this, and without saying much, he took the big spoon and dug a spoonful of lard and potato cubes into the lunch box brought by Li. It was visible to the naked eye that there were several more pieces of lard.

Lard residue is originally a fatty substance, and with the addition of soy sauce for coloring and potato starch for texture, it looks shiny and particularly appetizing.

As for the amount of lard residue, that is what He Yuzhu has in his hands.

The decades of experience he had in flipping the wok in his previous life were not in vain. If he didn't want to give him a piece of meat, he could just use his spoon to eat it and there would not be even a piece left.

If you want to give more, you can naturally give more.

The kind of job that involves shaking the meat off the spoon after the dish is cooked can only be described as a job that is too rough and easy to get beaten.

He Yuzhu used that trick on Xu Damao in his previous life just to deliberately anger him.

There is definitely a shortage of meat these days.

Who to call and who not to call is all up to the server.

In fact, every server has his own skills.

That is to say, when taking the food out of the pot and putting it into the bowl, you can already observe where the meat has fallen.

If the relationship is not good, then we will just dig into places where there is no meat.

On the surface, each person gets one spoon, and it all depends on luck.

But in fact, in his previous life, the neighbors in the yard benefited a lot from He Yuzhu in this regard.

Although Clerk Li will have great success in the future and will be tired of all kinds of delicacies, he is still a nobody now, and even a piece of lard in his bowl can make him smile.

Clerk Li picked up two steamed buns, and this time the rain did not stop him from eating.

While eating, Clerk Li asked, "Comrade Xiao He, today is your first day at work. Did you encounter any problems?"

He Yuzhu said, "It's nothing else, it's just that the meal time for our guards over there, can we set a time?"
For example, today, I prepared according to the workers' meal time, and you saw the result. Also, the number of people eating must be determined. For example, today, I prepared according to the share of 50 people, and I don't know if it is enough, or if it is too much. '
When He Yuzhu was preparing, it was Supervisor Hu who arranged it.

Supervisor Hu was probably not very familiar with security, so he asked He Yuzhu to take charge of the preparations for thirty or forty people.

In fact, He Yuzhu also knew this. At this time, the security sent to the steel mill was probably a platoon plus a few civilian staff. So thirty or forty people was about the same number. He Yuzhu prepared fifty people, which was a little more than normal.

After all, security guards are not like the workers. The workers in the steel mill are only provided with one lunch and go home for dinner, but the security guards live and eat in the factory.

Even if you can’t finish it at noon, you can eat more at night.

In other words, even if He Yuzhu didn't ask, he would be able to know the exact number by dinner time.

But this is how things are. Since the leader asked He Yuzhui if he had any difficulties, even if he had no difficulties, he would have to find some difficulties to report. Otherwise, how would the importance of the leader be reflected?
Clerk Li nodded and said, "I'll go to the security department later to see what they need. Is there anything else?"

This is a matter of routine. Now, Clerk Li can report that there are 42 security guards, but there are also workplace rules.

For example, he needs to communicate with the comrades on night shift to see if they need midnight snacks.

He Yuzhu pointed to the back door and said, "And the kitchen. Comrade Li, did anyone notice you coming in just now?"

"No, I don't think so!" Clerk Li couldn't be sure.

He Yuzhu frowned and said: "Comrade Li, I don't know if what I said is right. You said that I am the only one in our kitchen, and Manager Hu arranged a kitchen assistant to help me prepare the ingredients, and he left after he was done.

If someone sneaks in and sabotages something while I'm serving food at the front window, I can't take the responsibility."

Mr. Li naturally understood what He Yuzhu meant, and his expression became serious.

He said to He Yuzhu: "Comrade Xiao He, your suggestion is very important, and we have neglected this.

Today it’s because of this young comrade. Otherwise, if I had sabotaged something, you would never have known about it.

Now that the new country has just been established, those guys are still determined to destroy us, so we must pay attention to this.

We also neglected the purchase and storage of food. I will bring this up with Secretary Yang.

Comrade Xiao He, if you find anything in the future, you can always come to me."

"Yeah," He Yuzhu smiled.

He Yuzhu was not sure whether the enemy spies would target this place, but he knew that if this side was not prepared, Yi Zhonghai and his men would definitely target this place.

There is no need to do anything else, just get some croton seeds to add some flavor to the food, and He Yuzhu will be in trouble.

Now that the relationship has fallen out, He Yuzhu will no longer give those people any trust.

To put it bluntly, the path He Yuzhu is taking now is completely different from that in his previous life. If he wants to live a good life, he has to be more vigilant than in his previous life.

He Yuzhu now has a separate kitchen. This was the small canteen where Lou Bancheng used to serve banquets, and it was also where He Daqing worked.

Now that we have a work group in the factory, we cannot allow excessive eating and drinking.

So this place is empty.

In order to avoid suspicion, Lou Bancheng deliberately arranged He Yuzhu here.

As long as you guard the back door, most of the risks can be avoided.

This is definitely a good thing. After all, human hearts are more terrifying than swords and guns.
