Chapter 489 Chen Jun, you must bring honor to the factory!

Listening to the excited discussions of the people in the kitchen, Chen Jun calmly picked up the porcelain teacup and slowly drank a sip of tea.

Chen Jun had the idea of ​​baking bread and selling it before, but due to production capacity and time constraints, he had never implemented it.

I did a little experiment today and it worked pretty well.

If nothing unexpected happens, the factory director should agree to our canteen application.

After all, the workers in the steel mill work very hard, and no matter how full their lunch is, it is difficult for them to last until the end of the get off work day.

So it’s nice to sell some bread in the afternoon.

It can not only help the canteen make more money, but also provide employees with more options.

The process and precautions of making bread have been taught to Sha Zhu, Master Li and Master Liu, but not to the other apprentices and handymen.

It’s not that Chen Jun is stingy, but doing so can improve the status of Master Li and the other two in the cafeteria, and enable them to better manage the corresponding cafeteria for him.

On the other hand, the level of these apprentices and handymen is not good enough. They have not mastered some basic things. If they devote their time to learning how to make bread, it will affect their grade in the exam.

Just as I was thinking about it, Director Yang's secretary walked into the kitchen with a smile on his face, holding half a piece of unfinished bread in his hand.

"Director Chen, Director Yang wants to see you."

As soon as these words were spoken, the people in the kitchen immediately became nervous and excited.

"Here we go. Whether this can be accomplished depends on whether Director Yang gives his approval."

"Of course you can. You know Director Chen's level."

"That's great, we can make more money every month."

When they arrived at the factory director's office, Director Yang looked up and warmly invited Chen Jun to sit down.

"Oh, if everyone had your enthusiasm, our factory would have no problem developing!"

“I tasted the bread, and it’s a little softer than before, but I think it’s tastier,” Director Yang commented.

Chen Jun smiled and nodded. He had made the bread harder before to suit the tastes of Yuri and others, as the bread there was naturally hard.

But people here like to eat soft food, so we improved the recipe.

"What is the reaction of our factory employees? Whether we can open a window to sell bread also depends on whether they are willing to pay for it," asked Director Yang.

Chen Jun then told about the sales situation at noon.

Upon hearing that they were sold out in a short time, Director Yang grinned.

"Okay, okay, then you can do this. The rewards for the kitchen staff will be as you said. A portion of the profits will be used as overtime pay."

Selling bread is beneficial to the steel mill and has no harm. Director Yang will definitely support it.

After saying that, Director Yang was not in a hurry to let Chen Jun leave, but took out a newspaper and handed it to him.

Chen Jun took it and glanced at it, and found that it was a newspaper that had just been delivered this morning. The most conspicuous part wrote about something like revenue generation. As he read on, Chen Jun noticed a piece of content.

Cooking competition?

ha? ?

Chen Jun looked at Director Yang in confusion, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Director, you don't want me to participate in the cooking competition, do you?"

"That's right, I just want you to participate in the competition on behalf of our factory."

"Now that the engineers from Mao Xiong have left, you are not so busy on weekdays, so just think of it as bringing honor to the factory."

"In addition to some restaurant chefs, there are also textile factories, machinery factories, maintenance factories, and metallurgical factories. There are a total of fifty vacancies."

After that, Director Yang said in a negotiating tone: "If you think it's okay, then I will help you sign up."

Chen Jun did not reply after hearing this, but patiently lowered his head and read the contents of the newspaper.

Some of the rewards for the winners are listed above.

Well, not bad.

It's not just some material rewards, but also some titles and honors.

There seems to be no harm in attending it, as it allows me to exchange ideas with experts in the same field.

"If you can win a place in this cooking competition, the factory will also prepare a reward for you," Director Yang added.

"Okay, then I will participate in the competition on behalf of our steel rolling mill and strive to win a championship!" Chen Jun nodded seriously.

Bringing glory to the factory is everyone’s responsibility!

The cooking competition is in a few days, so there are still a few days to prepare.

Although Chen Jun is very confident in his cooking skills, he does not have mysterious self-confidence. You have to know that this is the Forbidden City. Although there are not many masters, there is definitely no shortage of them.

So after leaving the factory director's office, Chen Jun began to think about what dishes to take to the competition.

Firstly, the dishes used in the competition should have a wide audience, and secondly, they should be able to stand out among many dishes.

After returning to the kitchen, Chen Jun told Sha Zhu about his participation in the cooking competition and asked him to get ready to compete together.

Sha Zhu originally thought that he was allowed to participate and was a little panicked for a moment.

Him? Cooking competition?

Sha Zhu would never dare to think like this in his dreams. Although his cooking is okay, he is just barely on the same level as Master Li and Master Liu.

"No, no, I know my own weight. Asking me to participate in the competition would bring shame to the factory."

Chen Jun glanced at Sha Zhu with a strange look, and after a while he explained: "I'm taking you there to be your assistant..."

Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu scratched his head embarrassedly, smiled foolishly twice, and ran to work.

This is the busiest time in the kitchen. All the factory workers come to the cafeteria to eat. After lunch, the people in the kitchen begin cleaning.

Today is even busier. After cleaning, I will start making cakes.

Because it concerns their bonuses, the people in the kitchen work extra hard and help with odd jobs.

Chen Jun no longer needed to make bread by himself. He just stood aside and watched Sha Zhu, Master Li and Master Liu work, pointing out any shortcomings from time to time.

Fortunately, the three of them had good skills and the bread they made did not go wrong.

As the workday nears the end, a rich aroma wafts from the cafeteria.

The employees, who were already starving, felt instantly energized when they smelled the aroma.

"Hiss, am I hallucinating because of hunger? Why do I smell the fragrance of bread?"

"Hey, don't tell me, I feel the same way."

"What a bullshit hallucination, it's clearly the cafeteria making bread."

"What's going on? Isn't bread only available at noon? Why is the aroma wafting out now? Could it be that they want to make it today and sell it tomorrow?"

"Use your pig brain to think about it. Is it necessary for the people in the cafeteria to do this? I think Director Chen must have felt that we didn't have any lunch, so he made some for us. Let's go to the cafeteria after work and see if there's any bread for sale."

"Stop talking, stop talking. The more you talk, the hungrier I get. I'm almost dying of hunger."

"Gulu gulu~~"

"Gulu~~"

For a moment, the workers in the steel rolling mill had no intention of working. They smelled the fragrance wafting in and counted the time in their minds.
