The booming era begins with the director of the Propaganda Department!

Chapter 319 A big pot of chicken soup!!!

After three rounds of wine and five kinds of dishes, the brothers smoked and talked about the mountains.

We stayed there until about two o'clock before getting up and leaving Fengze Garden.

After leaving the door, the fat man immediately spat on the ground: "Brothers, do you feel that the dishes made in Fengze Garden are a little bit worse nowadays..."

Back when Sha Zhu was an apprentice at Fengze Garden, he and his brothers often ate the leftovers that guy brought back.

Wow, the food at Fengze Garden was so delicious back then!!!
Siyan nodded in agreement: "Before the public-private partnership, these restaurants had very high requirements for raw materials, and the dishes were also controlled by special shopkeepers.

What about now??? What kind of stuff are these..."

Li Youbing also said: "Isn't it the same at Dong Lai Shun? The mutton hotpot tastes totally different from before.

If the boss hadn’t asked, “Why is the hot pot at Donglaishun not so delicious?” I guess he would still be using that damn thing to get by with his job!!!”

Seeing that the gate of the transport company was already in sight, Zhang Shenfei said, "In the past, Donglaishun used small rams from Inner Mongolia, and only selected Shangqiu, Dasancha, Xiaosancha..."

After bringing the mutton back, you need to first put ice in a large basin, then put a layer of mutton on it, cover it with a layer of tung oil cloth, and stack it up layer by layer. Then you need to let it sit for the blood in the mutton to completely seep out.

The mutton processed in this way will taste more delicious.

But what about now???
After the public-private partnership, the supplier managers did not understand that a slight mistake could lead to a huge error.

The private manager did not dare to argue with them. The origin of the sheep changed, the location of the mutton changed, and the way the mutton was processed also changed...

There's a little difference here, a little difference there, and when you add them all up, the difference is not just a little, but a lot.

Even if you are not a gourmet, as long as you have eaten Donglaishun mutton hotpot a few times, you will be able to taste the difference immediately when eating the new cooking method.

But, who cares???
If the top leader had not questioned the issue, the quality of mutton would probably still not be good.

Looking across the country,

It's not just Donglaishun that's been like this, all the good stuff has been ruined!!!
Although the quality of Donglaishun has been restored, other century-old stores are still doing a shabby job. Who cares?
A few people were complaining casually, and when they arrived at the gate of the transportation company, they tacitly stopped discussing this topic and started talking about other trivial matters instead.

Zhang Shenfei knew the secretary and the top boss of the transportation company and had been here several times before.

When he returned to the transportation company after dinner, many drivers greeted him.

"Director Zhang is here? I heard you're going to college now?"

"Hello, Director Zhang. Is your old lady doing well recently?"

"Director Zhang, let me give you some of this. I brought it back from outside the Great Wall during my last business trip..."

"Long time no see, Director Zhang. Let's have a drink together next time when we have time..."

"Director Zhang, my sister said he is in the steel mill. Thanks to your help... This is the White Rabbit I brought back from Shanghai..."

A group of drivers surrounded Zhang Shenfei, asking him for cigarettes and giving him gifts.

Seeing this, the college students who were working and studying at the scene were immediately envious.

This is a driver that even a county magistrate wouldn't change! ! !
How big would this face be to get them to gather together and fawn on him? ! ! !
While shocked,

Everyone has more confidence in Zhang Shenfei's abilities and believes that he will be able to bring more part-time jobs to everyone in the future.

It was almost time for the trucks to set off.

Director Ma suddenly came out, pointed at a diesel generator in the corner and said, "Well, come and help transport this machine to the Iveco truck that's going to Fengtai."

Zhang Shenfei strode over and kicked the generator: "This machine looks quite heavy."

Director Ma: "Of course it is. It weighs about 400 kilograms. Originally, this was our transportation company's own backup generator, but we just received a call from Fengtai Hongxing Commune saying that they needed water for irrigation, so they insisted on borrowing it."

"Director Zhang, the drought is so severe now. If the farmers are in need, we can't just hold them back, right?"

At this point, seeing Zhang Shenfei's half-smile, he seemed to remember something, slapped his forehead and said, "Director Zhang, don't worry, I won't let the students work for nothing.

Students who help to load and unload the engine will be given 20 cents each. "

Two cents? ?

The students present were immediately excited, knowing that in recent years a bowl of noodles with soybean paste on the street only costs two cents.

Helping to install and uninstall a machine, 40 cents in hand, where can I find such a good thing? ? ? ?

At that moment, several male students were eager to try and prepared to step forward.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Shenfei suddenly rolled up his sleeves and said, "I haven't done any hard work for a long time. Come on, let me try..."

Director Ma hastily refused: "Don't joke, Director Zhang, you can't do that..."

Zhang Shenfei is a good friend of the manager of their transportation company. Let him be a laborer to move things? Unless he doesn't want to be a warehouse manager anymore.

Zhang Shenfei curled his lips and smiled: "Director Ma, a man can't say no."

After saying that, he walked forward and directly embraced the engine. With a little force, the engine weighing more than 300 pounds was actually lifted up by him.

Hiss! Everyone present, including Director Ma and the drivers, were stunned.

This, this is a diesel generator weighing nearly 400 kilograms! ! ! !

In the past, when the transportation company needed an engine, they had to find four strong drivers and co-pilots to lift it together.

But now Zhang Shenfei actually picked it up by himself.

"Zhang, Director Zhang, you are so awesome, you are like Li Yuanba reincarnated!!!" Director Ma gave a thumbs up and praised.

"I didn't expect that Director Zhang, who looks so gentle, actually has so much strength..."

"Director Zhang is good. He's even better than us drivers who travel all over the country!"

"I've seen that the people working in the grain stores are very strong, but they can only carry 200 kilograms of grain at a time. Director Zhang is twice as strong as them!!!"

"What did I say? Director Zhang is the best at everything he does! Even when it comes to carrying things, he can carry more than anyone else."

Amid the discussions of the crowd, Zhang Shenfei walked towards the truck step by step, holding the generator.

The generator was too heavy, and every step Zhang Shenfei took felt heavy. After walking a few meters, his face began to turn red and sweat beads appeared on his forehead.

But he knew he could still hold on.

Seeing Zhang Shuifei approaching step by step the large truck where the engine was to be installed, everyone held their breath. Apart from Zhang Shenfei's footsteps, there was no other sound at the scene.

I don’t know how long it took, but Zhang Shenfei placed the generator next to the truck, and there was a muffled thud.

The two students standing next to the truck only felt that the ground seemed to be shaking slightly.

Chen Yizhi’s eyes widened: “Two cents for a bag of building materials, and a bag of building materials weighs fifty kilograms. So, Zhang Shenfei, you can earn eight cents for one trip!!!” What the hell, eight cents!!! Could this guy be the legendary god who has mastered the skill of flying on grass and is going to deliver food???
Zhang Shenfei wiped the sweat from his forehead, glanced at him, and said nothing.

Director Ma came over with a large enamel cup and asked Zhang Shenfei to drink some water and rest for a while. He then pointed at a few students and asked them to lift the engine onto the truck.

"Director Zhang, I didn't expect you to be born with supernatural powers." Looking at Zhang Shenfei gulping down water, Director Ma said, "To be honest, I have been running a warehouse in a transportation company for five years. How many people have I seen who claim to have great strength? But compared to you, they are not even as strong as your little finger nail."

"Well, I learned this through practice." Zhang Shenfei lied.

Director Ma became even more curious: "Why are you practicing this?"

He heard that Zhang Shenfei was appointed as the Propaganda Officer as soon as he entered the steel rolling mill, and he also published articles in newspapers from time to time.

After all, he is a real intellectual, so why is he still in love with the job of a back-sitter?

Zhang Shenfei still saw the doubts in their eyes, so he just continued to talk nonsense:

"You may not know this, but a person's endurance and willpower in the face of setbacks are not developed through intelligence, but through physical strength.

To put it simply, a person can only become more resilient if he or she engages in long-term physical exercise, such as loading and unloading cargo, long-distance running, and weightlifting.

And this resilience, endurance and willpower can make people stronger in the face of difficulties in life and study."

At this point, he looked at the students who were working part-time again: "So I brought you to the transportation company to load and unload goods, not just to let you earn a little living expenses.

Everyone present here is a college student of the new era and a pillar of the country.
After graduation, you will all be cadres, and the worst that can happen to you will not be reduced to being a neck-deep in the office or carrying heavy responsibilities.

Today I want you to do this here.

I hope that everyone will remember how they felt today and hone their resilience. No matter what difficulties they encounter in the future, they can remember how we gritted our teeth and persevered today!!!"

After finishing his speech,

It immediately drew warm applause from the crowd.

"That's great. President Zhang said it very well."

"Listening to your words is worth ten years of reading."

"Don't mention that when I gritted my teeth and insisted on loading the goods just now, I was really deeply touched..."

"Me too, I suddenly understood that some things may seem difficult, but as long as you stick to it, you can always see hope."

"President Zhang has good intentions, we will definitely not let you down!!!"

Zhang Shenfei poured a large pot of hot chicken soup, and the college students in the ivory tower were deeply touched and expressed their feelings one after another.

The fat man, Four Eyes and Li Youbing standing by were stunned.

"Brother Dafei, this is too much of a boast..."

"To be honest, Dafei's eloquence would be enough to fool rich women in the old society..."

"Damn it, if I had his eloquence, would I still be unable to find a partner???"

After receiving everyone's admiring looks, Zhang Shenfei couldn't help but feel proud.

"Okay, I don't want my 80 cents anymore. I'll buy three colors and share them with everyone."

Director Ma just mentioned that he would find four people to lift the generator, and each person would get 20 cents. He did the work of four people, so isn’t that 80 cents? ? ? ?

There are candies? ? ! ! The students were excited again after hearing this.

He kept saying that there was really candy to be had by following President Zhang, and that President Zhang was awesome.

"Alright, alright, there's no need to flatter me, it's getting late, just get in the car!!!
As for the candy, you can eat it after you come back. Comrades, I will always be here, waiting for your triumphant return!!!"

Zhang Shenfei waved his hand, and the students immediately found the cars they had been assigned and climbed on.

Seeing the large trucks leaving the transportation company's gate, Zhang Shenfei also prepared to leave.

Director Ma was puzzled when he saw this: "Director Zhang, aren't you going to wait here for those students to return victoriously???"

Why does it look like he's ready to leave? ? ?
Zhang Shenfei curled his lips and smiled faintly: "It's only half past two now, they will be back around six in the afternoon... Am I crazy? Waiting for them here???

Now, I have to go home and take a nap."

After saying that, he stretched and walked out of the transportation company without paying any attention to Director Ma's shocked look.

The transportation company is also near Daqianmen. It is too far to go back to the Siheyuan from here. After thinking for a while, Zhang Shenfei decided to go to Yunju Hutong.

There are more than 800 businesses on Qianmen Street, but only a few of them are occupied.

Xu Huizhen and Chen Xueru are the best among them. They are like friends and enemies, competing with each other in the business world.

The courtyard house that Chen Xueru got from the painter before was opposite to Xu Huizhen's yard. After the two discussed it, they simply opened a door directly on the back wall.

This made it convenient for Zhang Shenfei. After he went to Chen Xueru's yard, he passed through the small door and entered Xu Huizhen's house.

"Hey, Brother Zhang, why are you here?" Xu Huizhen was washing clothes for Xu Jingli in the yard. When she saw him coming, she immediately asked with a smile.

"I came to Qianmen Street to do some business. After finishing the work, I felt a little sleepy, so I came to your place to take a nap." Zhang Shenfei said as he picked up Xu Jingli who was playing with a porcelain doll nearby.

It was hot and the little girl had two buns on her head, which made her look like a New Year picture doll and extremely cute.

"Okay, then I'll make the bed for you." Xu Huizhen quickly hung up the clothes in her hands, turned around and walked towards the master bedroom.

This courtyard house was bought by Zhang Shenfei before. At that time, Zhang Shenfei asked her to choose any bedroom she wanted and said it didn't matter even if she lived in the master bedroom.

But how could she be so ignorant? She only chose the wing room, and the master bedroom was always reserved for Zhang Shenfei.

So even though Zhang Shenfei had only slept here two or three times in the past five or six years, she would help clean the house from time to time.

In winter, there are mattresses, and in summer, there are mats. Everything is always prepared very well.

At this moment, Xu Huizhen quickly took a nearly clean wet cloth and wiped the bamboo mat on the bed: "Brother Zhang, you can sleep peacefully here. I will take Li'er to the tavern later to prevent her from disturbing you."

Hearing her mother's words, Xu Jingli immediately became unhappy, pouting and yelling, "Li'er won't bother Uncle Zhang, Li'er wants to take a nap with Uncle Zhang."

"What nonsense are you talking about? When have you ever had a nap? Uncle Zhang is tired and needs to rest. Don't mess with him here." Xu Huizhen said and was about to report Xu Jingli over.

Who would have thought that the little girl would hold Zhang Shenfei's neck and refuse to let go: "No, no, I want to take a nap with Uncle Zhang..."

"You kid..."

"Forget it, Huizhen, this girl and I get along well. Li'er wants to rest in my room, so let her come with me." Zhang Shenfei acted as a peacemaker.
