From selling box lunches to becoming a famous Chinese chef

Chapter 60: Recruitment issues (please vote for me, please read)
  After cleaning up the inside and outside of the canteen, Li Huidong also stewed the soup needed for tomorrow.

Li Huidong and the Lin family exchanged a few words with Zhang Lei and Yang Peng and left together.

After their master and Lin Jiacheng left, Zhang Lei and Yang Peng discussed it privately and found Feng Zhengming who was guarding the soup pot in the kitchen.

The two came to Feng Zhengming's side and were a little embarrassed to speak for a moment.

Feng Zhengming noticed the two of them, but when they didn't speak, he didn't take the initiative to speak, but continued to focus on the soup in the pot.

Seeing Feng Zhengming staring at Tang, he remained silent.

Zhang Lei and Yang Peng looked at each other, but they couldn't hold back and spoke first.

Yang Peng said: "Uncle, can you please help me? I have a sister in the countryside who has always wanted to find a job in the city."

When Feng Zhengming heard this, he almost immediately understood what Yang Peng meant.

He first put the lid on the soup pot and at the same time turned down the stove fire.

Then he turned around and looked at Zhang Lei and Yang Peng.

"Sister? Girlfriend? Does Zhang Lei also want to recommend someone to the cafeteria?"

Yang Peng and Zhang Lei were shocked when they heard this.

Looking at the junior uncle in front of them, who was obviously younger and greener than them, the two of them felt as if their little thoughts were completely seen through by the other.

So for a moment, Yang Peng and Zhang Lei didn't know how to continue?

When Feng Zhengming saw the two people fell into silence, he said calmly: "If you ask me to tell the truth, I don't want you to call your girlfriend, relatives and friends to the cafeteria to have sex together."

After hearing this, Yang Peng and Zhang Lei immediately shrugged their heads, as if they felt there was no hope.

Feng Zhengming added: "The arrival of your girlfriends, relatives and friends will have an impact on you two and may hinder you."

Yang Peng couldn't help but said: "No, Junior Master, my girlfriend was agreed to by my family. She is a very nice person and an honest and responsible girl. But we have been separated for a long time, and the family is worried that our relationship will weaken over time. She also wants to come to the city to find something to do and join me."

Feng Zhengming did not refuse directly, but looked at Zhang Lei: "The person you want to introduce is also your girlfriend?"

Zhang Lei said: "No, no, it's my sister-in-law. My brother and sister-in-law are also in Quancheng. My brother has a job, but my sister-in-law has been idle and wants to find a job."

Feng Zhengming said: "You told me because you wanted me to help you put in a good word."

Yang Peng and Zhang Lei looked at each other and nodded.

Feng Zhengming said directly: "I'm sorry, I can't help you. Your relatives and friends will come to the cafeteria to work. Let them apply for the job. If it suits them, my brother-in-law and your master will stay."

Yang Peng and Zhang Lei understood that Feng Zhengming would not help speak, and they were somewhat disappointed.

At the same time, Yang Peng and Zhang Lei wanted their relatives and friends to come to the cafeteria.

When Li Huidong returned home in the evening, he told his wife that the cafeteria was recruiting people.

When Hu Yan heard what her husband said, she immediately hugged him and said, "You are short of someone to make buns in your cafeteria. Why don't you let my cousin do it? My cousin does the job very well. You have seen it during the Chinese New Year, and her buns are also very good."

Li Huidong heard this and said, "Isn't that good? Is your cousin going to be willing to let your brother-in-law go?"

Hu Yan said: "What are you not happy about? You two contract the canteen together, and it mainly depends on your skills. My cousin doesn't just get paid for nothing, but works for you."

Li Huidong did not say a word, but fell into deep thought for a while.

Seeing that her husband remained silent, Hu Yan immediately displayed her wife's charm.

"Oh, aren't I thinking about you? Zhengming is right. We can't use family members in the factory. Those people are outsiders and may collude with those in the factory. I recommend my cousin, who is my own family. I will help my family.”

Li Huidong showed his charm to his wife, but couldn't help but hug her.

But he said: "I'm afraid that if it's too hard, my cousin will complain, and then you will be complained too?" Hu Yan asked: "Isn't it just a bag?"

Li Huidong said: "It's not just making buns, but also washing vegetables and cleaning."

Hu Yan asked: "Aren't your two apprentices washing vegetables and cleaning?"

Li Huidong said: "We are too busy, but if we are busy, we don't need to recruit people."

Hu Yan continued to ask: "Tell me, what exactly are you going to do?"

Li Huidong was pestered by his wife, so he had no choice but to talk about the general work.

"That is, in the morning, Zhang Lei and Yang Peng will do the washing. Zhengming and I will do the cooking at noon. After lunch in the cafeteria, we will clean the cafeteria and the kitchen. We will make buns in the afternoon. In the evening, we will clean the cafeteria and the kitchen and then get off work."

After hearing this, Hu Yan asked: "Is it that simple?"

Li Huidong nodded: "What do you mean it's that simple? Washing vegetables and cleaning are not easy, and you also have to make buns."

Hu Yan said with certainty: "My cousin is fine."

When Li Huidong saw that his wife was determined, especially when he was about to enter a critical moment, he could only say: "Okay, let my cousin give it a try. Let's see if she can do it first."

When Hu Yan received her husband's answer, she was so satisfied that she hugged her husband.

In the Lin Jiacheng family, Li Huidong's eldest sister Li Fenzhen also listened to her husband's explanation about recruiting people in the canteen.

Li Fenzhen said: "Zhengming is really smart. Someone in the factory came to me before and said that he wanted his family members to work in the cafeteria. He asked me to talk to you and Dongzi."

Lin Jiacheng said: "You didn't agree, right?"

Li Fenzhen shook her head and said, "Don't worry, how could I agree so casually?"

Lin Jiacheng said: "Zheng Ming reminded me tonight that there are many jealous people behind the contracting of the canteen. From now on, we need to keep a low profile and try to be as quiet as possible about recruiting people."

Li Fenzhen said: "How about looking for someone from home?"

Lin Jiacheng said: "Looking for it from my home? Are you willing?"

Li Fenzhen immediately patted her husband: "What am I unhappy about? Don't let me bear this kind of infamy among your family. If you want to find someone, just go to the cafeteria and do it."

Lin Jiacheng quickly hugged his wife to comfort him: "Don't be angry, I'm just kidding. How can I find someone from my family? Looking for them? I might as well let the family members of the factory work in the cafeteria."

Li Fenzhen said: "Apart from Dongzi, I'm afraid there is no one in our family who is willing to suffer the hardships of the canteen. Why don't we ask Hu Yan's family?"

Lin Jiacheng thought for a while and said, "Sister-in-law, will you ask your younger siblings later?"

Li Fenzhen said, "Okay, I'll take the time to ask Hu Yan."

Lin Jiacheng emphasized: "You should make it clear to Hu Yanke that when you introduce her relatives to the canteen, they must be the kind of down-to-earth people. Don't hold us back in the canteen."

Li Fenzhen promised: "I know, I will make it clear to Yanzi."

The next day, they talked about recruiting workers in the cafeteria again. Feng Zhengming heard that his senior brother and brother-in-law seemed to be still planning candidates? He told him what Zhang Lei and Yang Peng had mentioned to him.

Zhang Lei and Yang Peng were somewhat off guard.

However, Feng Zhengming didn't directly recommend him. He just said that if the elder brother and brother-in-law didn't think of a suitable candidate, they could all come to the cafeteria and give it a try.

Li Huidong and Lin Jiacheng discussed it for a while and agreed to let Zhang Lei's sister-in-law and Yang Peng's girlfriend come to try out the job, as well as Hu Yan's cousin.

Zhang Lei and Yang Peng did not thank Feng Zhengming in person, but they made a mental note of Feng Zhengming's help.
