Chapter 18: Touched
This plate of "salt and pepper shrimp" touched Hong Yanwu far beyond the reasonable range.
After eating, he was immersed in it for several days, not knowing the taste of the meat, and could not extricate himself.
Of course, this is not to say that "Zhang Dascoo" is the god of cooking, this dish has been so mysterious that people can taste it and eat anything else.
In fact, the real reason is because of the persistence and enthusiasm embodied by "Zhang Dascoo" from this dish, which unexpectedly brought Hong Yanwu an unexpected but extremely strong spiritual shock.
It was like a thunderbolt, a sharp flash, that made him suddenly connect everything in front of him with the future he had experienced.
He suddenly thought of what society would look like decades from now.
At that time, it will be too different from now, and there will be no more people like "Zhang Dascoo".
People's lives are becoming more and more modern, but they have lost patience and confidence.
Everyone is superstitious about science and technology, superstitious academic qualifications, superstitious nepotism, superstitious unspoken rules, and even superstitious zodiac signs and constellations, but they dare not believe in others and themselves.
People are insecure and become suspicious of everything and deny everything.
The more orthodox things are, the more empirical things are, the more they will be resisted and ridiculed.
"Honest", "down-to-earth", and "willing to work" have completely become synonymous with wastefulness and foolishness.
At that time, people only called things that could be realized in an instant as dreams.
People have become opportunistic, worshipping getting rich once and thinking about how to pay the least price in exchange for the highest return.
Everyone wastes a lot of time on boring things, but they always like to say that they are too busy to have time.
The capital is gone, although it still exists nominally, but it is only the capital.
It has become a sprawling modern metropolis of concrete, electronic networks, traffic jams, and dazzling advertisements and lights.
The commercial streets are all stupid, the snacks in Beijing are all fabricated, and foreign fast food can be seen everywhere, accounting for the largest share of the catering market in Beijing.
And the dishes in our local restaurants are all about the same taste, and the profession of chef is essentially engaged in chemical work.
The "polar bear" is gone, the peony smoke is gone, and the "five-star" beer is gone.
The big bowl of tea that cost a few cents a bowl under the front door building is gone, and the time-honored brands that used to attract customers by taste have become flashy and dominating tourists.
Brands from all over the world have gathered in Beijing to get a piece of the pie, although these goods are still made by ourselves, but only by hanging foreign labels, can we win the trust of people.
But that's not the worst of it. Even the people of the capital are only left with bragging X and Beijing scolding as synonyms.
The humility, politeness, tolerance, sincerity, humor, optimism, and politeness of the past have almost completely been erased by time.
It is in such a future that people want and chase only fancy tickets, and they are willing to exchange everything they can for money.
Ancestral home, old things, time, body, feelings, self-esteem, conscience, face...... Everything can be sold at a price tag.
Don't hesitate, don't hesitate.
Just like him, just like himself, did it in the first place!
But is it worth it? Even if you get the price you want, can what you lose and what you gain really equal? Which is more valuable?
Hong Yanwu was confused, he was afraid.
Because as a person who has come before, even if he understands it now, it will not help.
The materialistic environment will not change because of him as a small individual, and he has no way to let others experience his feelings.
He was also stupidly happy and excited about copying the bottom printing stones, calligraphy and paintings, jade, and antiques.
But he forgot one thing, although he could put those tangible treasures into his pocket, how could he keep more intangible treasures?
It wasn't something that could be bought for a few dollars, and many things he was reluctant to do without were destined to be lost.
The capital is also destined to become a city that is no longer livable.
So he found that the happiness that was hard to come by now was actually in jeopardy, and it was actually in a short-lived and fleeting state.
He can't be alone and create a safe paradise. No matter how much wealth he has, he can't do it.
Because the happiness he wants requires a specific environment and atmosphere, and "home" is also shrouded in the concept of "Beijing".
If you can't even find a place to eat bowls of authentic fried noodles and lo mein, can this also be called Beijing?
If you can't see the sun and blue sky for most of the year, and you can only live in a gray cloud created by the smog exhaust, can it also be called life?
It is even more unlikely that his parents will tolerate an environment where there are no neighbors to talk to and no acquaintances to greet them, otherwise they would not have moved into the old house long ago?
Therefore, for Hong Yanwu, this feeling is like being defenseless, and suddenly someone patted him from behind.
Shocking!
Or maybe one day you got up late, put on your clothes and rushed to work, only to remember that you forgot to lock the door halfway.
Suddenly, the back of the spine is cold!
So what should he do? What can he do?
Maybe life is too simple for oneself, even if he is a reborn, many things are still beyond his reach, and regrets are inevitable.
It's like...... It's like the thing about him and "Sugar Heart"......
But this thought really made him indignant and depressed.
And does he have the ability to change some of them? How useful would it be if he was a mantis arm blocker?
I'm afraid it will take him a lot of time to figure it out.
However, it was precisely because of the problems in his heart that after that, he suddenly became much quieter and more serious in his work.
It seems that he has obsessive-compulsive disorder, or he can work hard to make his heart feel steady, and he "sighs" and "sighs" every day to compete with work.
But I didn't expect this to be crooked, and it fell in the eyes of "Zhang Dascoo", but I thought that the children were teachable.
Anyway, after this incident, this stubborn old man's attitude towards Hong Yanwu has improved significantly.
At least when it's okay, I'm willing to talk to him for a few words.
What's even more unexpected is that the old guy is funny because he always likes to play cymbals with food.
For example, when it comes to fritters, he told Hong Yanwu that he told you that if you are not tormented, you will not mature. Always suffered, will become an old fritter.
What about steamed buns? After greatness, it becomes empty.
If you want to succeed, you have to rely on someone to pull it.
Dumplings are not a good thing if they are too thick-skinned.
Soda? It's a lot of towns, and when it's time, there's always a time for you to bubble.
The day of the big red is the time of great sorrow.
Tofu is a critical stage that needs to be lit.
It's better to be a man and keep an eye on it.
Not to mention, not only listening to Coke, but pondering it carefully, it is quite in line with the world.
Of course, Hong Yanwu is also a joker, and in the same way, he gives back with jokes about the "Food Fight Series".
As a result, "Zhang Dascoop" was also amused by the baggage of those whimsical ideas.
In this way, the more you get along, the more you get along. As soon as "Zhang Dascoop" was happy, he made another "salt and pepper shrimp".
According to this path, Hong Yanwu probably doesn't have to worry about satisfying his cravings.
Therefore, at this time, the real passive one was the deputy secretary who got Hong Yanwu here.
Because he originally wanted Hong Yanwu to suffer hardship, but he didn't expect this kid to be quite adaptable here.
And because Chen Liquan had to accompany him to "serve his sentence", the fried liver of "Tianxingju" was lost in the big canteen.
Not to mention that the employees have big opinions, many people put forward opinions with the administrative department, and the factory leaders also want to. Even Secretary Guo has asked about this.
What should I do? In order to avoid a lot of criticism, we can only transfer people back.
Hey, there's a saying that it's easier to please God than to send God. Since people are coming, it's not so easy to let people go.
Master Pang and the section chief both came to persuade him, but Hong Yanwu didn't give face this time, and he also let go, saying that he would use this place as "Shajiabang" and go down far away.
Well, the colleagues in the big cafeteria are all supportive, because no one wants to replace it.
Master Pang discussed with the section chief, and the two of them didn't want to be splinted, so they reported directly to the deputy secretary.
It is said that people are not willing to engage in specialization, but also to carry forward the spirit of hardship and hard work. If it is forcibly transferred, it is not reasonable, and the employees of the big canteen also have opinions, and it is difficult to convince the public, and the work will not be able to be done.
Well, now the deputy secretary has finally tasted the dilemma.
In the end, the deputy secretary came forward to talk to Hong Yanwu once, and then he promised that every Wednesday, he and Chen Liquan would squeeze out one person to go to work in the big canteen and cook a meal of fried liver for the workers.
But the deputy secretary was not happy because of this, because Hong Yanwu, this kid, would never do his dedication in vain.
He could only agree to raise the salaries of Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan by half a level in advance.
In this way, the basic salary of each of these two boys has become sixty yuan.
Hey, I didn't think about it, but I didn't make it happen, but I gave my parents a salary, and I dug a hole for myself.
How?
The touch of this thing is not a taste at all.
If you want to think about it deeply, it is definitely enough for the deputy secretary to be aggrieved for half a year.
