The boss cooks, and the bankrupt company opens a state banquet restaurant

Chapter 14 The chicken thief Li Mingtao is about to receive the subsidy!
  Li Mingtao followed the deputy director to the canteen of the new company.

The layout of the buildings here in the High-tech Development Zone is basically the same, and the structure of the new company canteen is no different from the delicious food there.

There are fixed tables and chairs for groups of four in the dining room, and further inside is the kitchen.

There was a row of glass windows against the wall of the restaurant. It was already past twelve o'clock, but there were only a few people eating in the restaurant, no more than twenty people.

"Aren't there more than [-] registered employees in the company?"

The deputy director helped Li Mingtao get a dinner plate, "Yes, many people would rather not eat at noon now than come to the cafeteria to eat."

Li Mingtao took the dinner plate and came to the window.

"New here? What do you want to eat?" A middle-aged bald man smoking a cigarette asked in the window holding a big spoon.

Li Mingtao frowned.

Not to mention how good the food is, a waiter smoking directly in front of the food?
  Just this alone made Li Mingtao almost lose his appetite.

When he lowered his head and looked into the window, his frown deepened.

There are a total of four dishes in the warming cabinet.

Braised eggplant, scrambled egg with tomato, stir-fried cauliflower, braised meatballs.

Just hearing the name of the dish is pretty good.

But look at these dishes carefully.

Braised eggplant, you can tell at a glance that the eggplant is cooked in water and then drizzled with a layer of oil.

Not to mention the scrambled eggs with tomatoes, a bowl of bright red tomatoes, not even an egg can be seen.

There’s nothing much to say about the fried cauliflower. The braised meatballs are basically meatballs bought from the market for eight yuan a pound and cooked.

‘No wonder employees don’t want to come to dinner. ’

At this level of food, Li Mingtao didn't even want to eat it just by looking at it, not to mention that he had to pay ten yuan to get such a portion.

"Hey, who wants to eat quickly? Didn't you see there are so many people in line behind you?" Seeing that Li Mingtao hadn't decided for a long time, the man who served the meal was also a little unhappy.

"Forget it." Li Mingtao turned and walked out of the queue.

The deputy director hurriedly followed, "Director Li, the current situation is like this. Most employees would rather eat dry food in the office than come to the cafeteria to eat."

"It really can't go on like this." Li Mingtao walked out of the cafeteria slowly, "How can we work if we can't even eat well?"

Maybe quitting because of bad food is a ridiculous-sounding reason.

But for most people, the simplest idea is to work hard for half a day and then have a delicious lunch.

Not to mention that these are still a group of white-collar workers in the development zone.

In some very poor rural areas, if neighbors help with harvesting fields and doing other chores, they must be rewarded with some good food at noon.

"Let's go back to the office first. I still have some biscuits in the drawer." The deputy director sighed.

Li Mingtao shook his head, "I'm not going back, I'm going out to eat."

"Outside?" The deputy director suddenly became more energetic, "Is there a restaurant downstairs in the company?"

Li Mingtao's CPU almost burned out when he solved this problem.

"Hey! I've been here for almost a year and I haven't seen any restaurants nearby. The nearest small restaurant is only ten minutes away by bicycle." The deputy director rubbed his hands and said, "Let's go, Director Li. I’ll go and treat you to dinner!”

Li Mingtao's brain was running rapidly.

You must not let your colleagues in the new company know that you are still working at Delicious.

I must not let my colleagues at Yumi Lai know that I have found a new company! ! !
  ‘What am I talking about?’ Standing at the door of the elevator, Li Mingtao took out his mobile phone and pretended to look at it, while his mind was thinking frantically about how to refuse the deputy director’s kindness.

After playing around with his phone for a few times, Li Mingtao found several new messages in the [Meishi Lai Company Work Group].

[Su Chen: Since everyone has no objections, the new system of the company canteen has been finalized. 】

Li Mingtao:? ? ?

I'm not even here, so you're going to create a new system?

[Su Chen: From now on, three meals a day, canteen meals will no longer have fixed prices. The specific price will be sold by portion according to the quality of the food. The price standard will be reviewed and approved by the Foodie Committee at a meeting every day and will be officially released ten minutes before the meal. 】

A committee was also formed?
  Li Mingtao became increasingly confused. What is a foodie committee? This name sounds very inappropriate!

But he can understand the previous content.

It probably means that there will no longer be a good thing about five or eight yuan a meal in the future, and the price will be what you eat.

It costs ten yuan to eat one portion, and it costs twenty yuan to eat two portions.

The witty Li Mingtao quickly thought of one thing. According to this statement, wouldn't his current situation be equivalent to having a membership card in the delicious company?
  The balance on the card: 1161 yuan.

He didn't want Su Chen to know that he was working in another company, wasn't it because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to get this subsidy by then?

That if.
  Li Mingtao had a plan in mind.

"Deputy Director Zhou, I do know a place where you can eat, but..."

Deputy Director Zhou Kai's eyes lit up, "Is it really there? Let's go, hurry up! Let's go try it out today. If this place is good, our company's employees will have a place to eat in the future. By then our canteen will not be able to open, he Why don’t you make the food better?”

The more he talked, the more Zhou Kai felt that it was feasible, and a big storm began to blow up in his mind, "Don't say that he is in charge of the canteen. Even if the big boss comes, he can't prohibit employees from eating out, right? Hey! This matter We don’t have to rely on our office, which not only solves the problem of food, but also solves the company’s problems!”

Li Mingtao looked at Zhou Kai who was very interested.

I haven’t finished speaking yet, and you’ve thought of so much?
  Then why aren't you the office director?
  Li Mingtao said patiently, "Director Zhou, please listen to me first."

"This place to eat is not a restaurant. It is a company run by a friend of mine. It will be no problem for me to eat in their company cafeteria. It will be no problem for you to bring one with me. At most, I will pay for it. But the problem is..."

Zhou Kai's bright eyes dimmed, "That's it. Then it seems unrealistic to ask everyone to go to dinner."

Li Mingtao nodded, "Anyway, let's go over for lunch today. Let's just say that you are a good friend who is working with me today and happened to pass by. Otherwise."

"I understand! I understand!" Zhou Kai nodded crazily.

The two walked into the elevator.

Li Mingtao continued to think about his little Jiujiu.

Let's have a meal first at noon. Zhou Kai will definitely be embarrassed to eat for nothing, so why don't he just give himself the money for the meal?

Calculate it like this.
  Li Mingtao breathed a sigh of relief.

Before the company goes bankrupt, he can basically get the subsidy back. Not only that, but some of the subsidy will be taken back in cash.

Comfortable!

Delicious food company, canteen.

The employees who were supposed to be knitting sweaters, playing King of Kings, and putting on makeup in the office area were now gathered in the cafeteria.

Su Chen, who was supposed to be busy in the kitchen preparing lunch, was rushed to the restaurant.

At this moment, Su Chen fell into deep thought as he looked at the excited employees.
