Chapter 492 I have long heard of Director Chen's name
Judging from the current situation, only a small number of participating chefs have arrived, and it will take some time before the competition begins.
Even if everyone is present, those leaders will have to give a short speech first, which will take at least half an hour. It would be better to sit down and chat first to save some energy.
"Hey, where did you get the stool?"
Sha Zhu took the stool that was handed to him and soon realized that something was wrong.
They clearly came here together by car and didn't notice the stool at all during the whole journey.
"It was there from the beginning, you just didn't notice it." Chen Jun said casually, then raised his hand and pointed to the empty space in the north: "See, there are chairs being arranged there, do you know what they are for?"
Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu looked in the direction he pointed and scratched his head in confusion: "Audience seats?"
"What audience? That's for the leaders. When everyone is here, it will be their turn to speak. Each person will take at least ten minutes. If three or five leaders take turns speaking, it will take at least half an hour."
"Wow, what a waste of time! No wonder you prepared a small stool in advance, otherwise how long would we have to stand?"
Sha Zhu nodded in approval, then looked around the playground and asked in confusion, "We are supposed to be playing on the playground, so why aren't the women workers from the textile factory here to watch the fun?"
He had heard from others that there were a lot of female workers in the textile factory. Before he met Liu Lan, he thought that if he couldn't find a partner in the future, he would wait for someone at the entrance of the textile factory.
There are many female workers here, there must be one or two who will be interested in him, right?
But unfortunately, before he could implement this plan, he had already got married with Liu Lan.
Although it can't be said to be a regret, Sha Zhu still wants to take a look at the demeanor of the female workers in the textile factory.
Chen Jun glanced at Sha Zhu and said with a smile, "At this time, he is working in the workshop. If you really want to see him, I will take you to the workshop after the competition!"
"Really?" Sha Zhu was shocked and looked at Chen Jun in surprise.
Taking him for a walk around the workshop, it turns out that Chen Jun is so awesome that he even has acquaintances in the textile factory?
"Do you really want to go?" Chen Jun gave him a contemptuous look, reached into his pocket, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started eating them.
He already has a wife but still wants to look at girls. This guy, Shazhu, is quite carefree.
If Liu Lan knew about this, she would have to kneel on the washboard.
"Hey, that's just what I said." Sha Zhu smiled guiltily, then asked Chen Jun for a handful of melon seeds and started to eat them leisurely.
The weather is nice today, but the sun is shining and it's a bit hot.
It would be better if there was a sunshade.
Shazhu took off his coat carelessly and happily started talking to Chen Jun about bread. He had a new idea about bread recently and planned to come up with some different flavors.
The two of them were eating melon seeds and chatting, looking a little too comfortable. If you didn't know them, you would have thought they were on vacation.
The two of them were comfortable, but the other chefs participating in the competition seemed a little unhappy.
No, what's going on? Why can they just stand there stupidly while those two people over there can sit on the bench and eat melon seeds?
Wow, that’s outrageous, they even have soda to drink!
Why? We are all here to participate in the competition, why do they have special privileges?
Sha Zhu, who was talking in a lively manner, suddenly felt something was wrong. He turned his head and met more than a dozen gazes.
Whoops!
What's going on with this overwhelming resentment?
Sha Zhu couldn't help shrinking his neck and lowered his voice to Chen Jun: "How about we not sit on the small bench? I always feel that there is murderous aura nearby."
He was worried that if he continued to be so carefree, someone would be unable to resist and come over to beat him up!
Although Sha Zhu thought he was good at fighting, he couldn't stand up to the crowd. Two punches from each of them could send him back to the steel mill.
"What are you afraid of? Can they beat you?" Chen Jun waved his hand casually, looking indifferent.
"It's their problem not to prepare in advance for the competition, so there's no need for us to change our situation because of them."
As he spoke, Chen Jun took two sips of the soda, then reached out and patted Sha Zhu on the shoulder: "Besides, there are several factory managers watching over there, and there are people from the security department behind. If anyone dares to hit you, you lie down, and I will extort fifty yuan from each person."
Today is a cooking competition, not a boxing match, and everyone here is a respectable person!
When Sha Zhu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Yes, whoever dares to hit me will be laid down. Fifty yuan per person is almost two months’ salary.
Thinking of this, Sha Zhu suddenly became confident. He ignored the dozen or so resentful gazes and proudly took two sips of the soda.
“Ah~~ It feels so good!”
Just as he finished speaking, a figure suddenly came over and happened to block the sun above Shazhu's head.
Sha Zhu's heart tightened and he looked back suddenly, and found a tall and thin man walking towards him.
"What do you want to do?"
"Can you give me some of those melon seeds? They're so boring." said the tall and thin man.
ha?
Aren't you here to fight yourself?
Sha Zhu glanced at the work clothes of the tall and thin man, who was from the Northern Second Steel Plant. He reached out his hand with some disappointment and gave a handful of melon seeds to the tall and thin man.
The tall and thin man didn't expect that Sha Zhu could be so straightforward. He happily squatted beside the two of them and started cracking melon seeds.
Chen Jun looked at him curiously and felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
The Second Northern Steel Plant?
It’s quite far from the steel mill, so the two people should not have met each other.
The man seemed to notice Chen Jun's gaze and nodded with a smile.
Chen Jun smiled and asked, "Are you tired of squatting?"
"A little bit." The tall and thin man was quite honest: "Where did you get the stool? I'll go get one too."
"I brought it from the factory when I came here." Chen Jun replied.
The tall and thin man thought for a moment and continued, "I'll give you one dollar and let me sit for a while. I twisted my waist while moving things a while ago."
One dollar? ?
After these words were spoken, Shazhu on the side lost his composure.
If you lend him a bench to sit on for a while, you can get one dollar. It's like pie falling from the sky.
But Chen Jun shook his head and rejected the tall and thin man's suggestion.
Sha Zhu, who was standing by, stood up quickly and was about to speak when the noise of a loud speaker suddenly came from the open space in the north.
"Okay, then I'll go back first."
The tall and thin man stood up and took two steps, then turned back to look at Chen Jun and said, "I am Nan Yi from the Northern Second Steel Plant. I have long heard of Director Chen from the Steel Rolling Mill. I hope we can still eat melon seeds together during the finals."
After saying that, the tall and thin man turned and left.
"Hey, what the hell is this broken horn? Can't it sound a little later? I was ready to give my stool to him." Sha Zhu said swearingly.
