The Grandmother in the Siheyuan

Chapter 25 Kidnapping
"Don't play tricks on me." The leader of the Yellow River Factory said with a smile: "What I mean is, if you only want one car, then we can give it to you as a gift. After all, you have contributed a lot. If you want two cars, you have to buy them. We don't have many unplanned products."

"How can you do anything big if you keep searching?" Li Huaide laughed. "Just now your technician said that our colleagues gave you a lot of good suggestions. Is it too much to ask for three cars?"

"It's not too much. Do you know how many factory representatives have stayed in our factory's guesthouse for a month just for an unplanned car? And they still can't get this share."

Li Huaide shook his head: "I don't care. They didn't help you solve the problem, but we did. Return a favor, three cars is fair."

"No, absolutely not."

Li Huaide smiled and said, "I won't live in your Yellow River Factory guesthouse for a month just for this car, but I can invite you to live in our Steel Rolling Mill guesthouse for a month, and I'll cover your food and drink."

"Then isn't this kidnapping?"

"Whatever you say, I want three cars."

The leader of the Yellow River Factory thought for a moment and said, "How about this? We can give you two cars within three months, and you can pick up another car after a year."

"Sure." Li Huaide said simply, "Two cars are enough to solve our urgent needs. Of course, the more cars the better."

"I have entered a den of bandits."

Li Huaide laughed and said, "That's just the beginning. Don't bother two people with one thing. How about selling us more spare parts? We can't repair many of our cars just by relying on planned allocation."

"At most I'll give you fifty tires. Nothing else."

Li Huaide nodded: "Okay, I won't be picky, everything in the bowl is vegetables."

Everyone was very happy with the dinner, and the leaders of the Yellow River Factory praised Sha Zhu's cooking skills, but Liu Hua was probably just being polite.

The Yellow River Factory is one of the few factories in the country that can produce trucks. Its status is much higher than that of a steel rolling mill, so it is not easy to find a good cook.

But you can't scold the chef right after the meal, and besides, Sha Zhu's cooking skills are indeed quite good, so just praise him a little, so that both the host and the guests will be happy.

Li Huaide is really proud of himself this time. When the factory leaders hold a meeting tomorrow, he will slam the list of three cars on the table, and even Director Yang will have to obey.

Liu Hua was in great pain. He didn't know much about cars to begin with, and after the technician's repeated questioning, he learned nothing about them.

After dinner, the technician even wanted to pull Liu Hua aside for a long talk all night long. This gave Liu Hua, who had been exposed to modern Internet thinking, goose bumps all over his body. Which good person would talk with a man all night long?

At the factory gate, Liu Hua met Sha Zhu again. He was holding a lunch box and dangling his bird. Liu Hua called him, "Sha Zhu, get in the car. I'll take you back."

Sha Zhu was not polite either. He took two steps forward, jumped into the back seat, and said with a smile, "I'll enjoy myself today, too."

"Virtue."

After getting in the car, Sha Zhu immediately started boasting: "I didn't expect that Li Huaide would treat you today."

"It wasn't me who was invited. It was someone from the Yellow River Factory who was invited."

"For what?"

"Their factory produces large trucks, but our factory is short of trucks. Director Li, can you please see if you can buy one for us?"

Sha Zhu said in disbelief: "This Li Huaide is capable of this?"

"Of course, he does the most entertaining in a month."

"He wants to connect with his own connections. He can't just talk nonsense. He has to eat and drink. You only see him eating and drinking, but don't you see how much benefit he has brought to the factory?"

Sha Zhu thought for a moment and said, "That's true. Even in the most difficult times in the past few years, our factory's supply did not drop much."

“That’s what people are capable of.”

"How do you like the dishes I made today?"

"Not bad, not bad. The leaders of the Yellow River Factory also praised you."

Sha Zhu immediately became ecstatic and said with a big smile: "If you want to talk about other things, I dare not brag, but when it comes to cooking, I am definitely good at it."

"Since you have such good skills, why don't you take the chef grade test?"

Sha Zhu said disapprovingly: "It's useless to take the exam. This is a factory, not a restaurant."

"No wonder everyone calls you a fool. Now that your level has been raised, the factory has to pay you for the processing."

"is it?"

"Of course, this is clearly stipulated. We give corresponding work grades and wages. Of course, there are restrictions on chefs in the factory, and there is a cap on their wages."

"That's great, I'll take the exam and come back when I have time." Sha Zhu smiled and said, "You know what? I've also been looking for a matchmaker these past two days, but I've lowered my standards this time."

"That's great, but it's best not to do it in the yard." Liu Hua quickly warned him: "The water is too deep in the yard, you can't control it."

"If I'm not at home, I won't be able to cook, and my style won't show."

"If the truth comes out, there will be plenty of time for her to eat your food. She won't marry you just for a meal." Liu Hua smiled and said, "This is a lifelong thing. It's best not to tell anyone before you get married."

"Why, I am too ashamed to see a wife like you."

"You know better than me what kind of people are in our hospital. They are all a bunch of people who don't like to see others do well." Liu Hua thought for a while and said, "No matter who you tell, if the news leaks out, someone will sabotage you."

This sentence immediately made Sha Zhu fall into deep thought. After a while, he said, "That's true. Then I'll tell the matchmaker that I must make sure it's foolproof this time."

"I won't say anything about you finding a wife, but I will say one thing, it's better to be kind and treat Yu Shui well. She has never had a father or mother to love her since she was a child. If your wife doesn't like her in the future, her life will be difficult."

"That's for sure." Sha Zhu said as a matter of course: "She is my only relative. If you don't treat her well, you will definitely not be able to marry her."

After arriving at the compound, Sha Zhu used his jokes to avoid being molested by the third uncle, and finally called Liu Hua: "I brought some food back, how about we have a drink?"

"No." Liu Hua shook his head. "I don't like drinking much anyway. You, as a cook, should also drink less. Drinking too much will affect your taste. Be careful not to know how salty the food should be when cooking."

Sha Zhu shook his head: "You don't understand this. A good chef cooks by the feeling of his hands, not the taste of his mouth."

Sha Zhu raised his hand and said, "Look at my hand. It's accurate and never wrong."
