Chapter 89: Seats for Entertaining VIPs
The next morning.
Jiang Xiaobai bought an old hen at his parents' house and brought more than a dozen crucian carp into the city.
After marinating all the braised vegetables in the store, I specially marinated the chicken and fish.
20 catties of chicken legs, enoki mushrooms and kelp are set by the Municipal Agricultural Machinery Manufacturing Factory for workers, and the braised whole chicken and braised crucian carp are prepared by Wang Lei for entertaining Vice Mayor Zhang.
Jiang Xiaobai thought about it, and then filled a pound of braised pig's head meat and braised pig's ears, and then scooped a small can of brine and sent it to the Municipal Agricultural Machinery Manufacturing Factory.
"Boss Jiang, thank you so much."
Seeing the braised whole chicken and braised crucian carp sent by Jiang Xiaobai, Wang Lei said with a smile.
It's just that I originally talked about a braised fish yesterday, but how did it become a dozen small crucian carp, and it doesn't look good on the plate like this.
"Director Wang, when you arrange for the waiter to serve the food, don't put the braised crucian carp on the plate.
It was served directly on a small plate and served in front of every guest.
It's called Position!
It means that this dish is different from other dishes, and generally only rare dishes are made into place.
Only when entertaining distinguished guests will he be on the throne. ”
As if seeing Wang Lei's doubts, Jiang Xiaobai said with a smile.
"Positional?"
It's the first time Wang Lei has heard of this new word, but it sounds quite lofty.
Well, just when the time comes, I will also say this to Vice Mayor Zhang, so that he will be happy and happy, and feel the courtesy of the distinguished guests.
"Boss Jiang, I have written down this favor."
"Here's the money for today's dishes."
20 pounds of braised chicken thighs, 4 pieces a pound, 80 pieces.
40 catties of vegetarian halogen, 6 cents a catty of 24 pieces.
Braised crucian carp costs 5 cents a piece, 12 pieces and 6 yuan.
The whole braised chicken is also 6 pieces.
Braised pig's head meat 1 catty, 2 pieces and 2 cents, braised pig ears 1 catty, 3 pieces and 5 cents.
Together it should be 121 pieces of 7 cents.
Wang Lei gave 13 pieces of unity.
"Director Wang, you have given too much."
Jiang Xiaobai took out a big unity card and handed it to Wang Lei.
Wang Lei waved his hand again and again, and said, "Not much, Boss Jiang, you specially cooked two dishes for our factory, and brought a jar of brine, you should charge so much money." ”
couldn't shirk it, Jiang Xiaobai had no choice but to accept the money.
The time soon came to noon, and Vice Mayor Zhang and his entourage entered the staff canteen to eat after the investigation of the city's agricultural machinery manufacturing plant.
"I heard that the workers of your agricultural machinery factory have good food, and today I am fighting for my teeth."
Vice Mayor Zhang said with a smile.
Zhou Changsong, the director of the factory, said: "Under your guidance and care, the factory has achieved good results this year, and the workers can improve their food, and I have to thank you." ”
As he spoke, he invited Vice Mayor Zhang into an independent small single room.
"How can you eat alone on the side, not with your comrades?"
Vice Mayor Zhang saw that there was only one table in the small room and asked in a deep voice.
In recent years, although the meals of the reception leaders have begun to be exquisite, they are basically still eaten in the canteen hall, such as the agricultural machinery factory, which supports a table in a single room, and Vice Mayor Zhang has encountered it for the first time.
Zhou Changsong said with a smile: "There are many new employees who have entered the factory this year, and the hall outside is more crowded, so the aggrieved leader dined in this small room." ”
Vice Mayor Zhang nodded with satisfaction, "Well, you can't disturb the majority of staff comrades for lunch." ”
"Yes, yes, please take a seat."
Zhou Changsong smiled and invited Vice Mayor Zhang to sit down.
In 1983, when the round table was not popular, when eating at home, in restaurants, and in the canteen, almost all of them used the Eight Immortals table, and naturally there were upper and lower seats.
Generally speaking, the upper seat is the upper seat against the wall door and the lower seat is opposite the door.
Regarding the seat, Vice Mayor Zhang did not refuse, and Shi Shiran sat down.
He sat down, and the rest of the staff took their seats one by one.
Wang Dekun, director of the Industrial Bureau, and Qian Fangyi, director of the Finance Bureau, sat on the left, Zhou Changsong and Ding Junjie, secretary to Vice Mayor Zhang, were on the right, and Wang Lei was on the bottom.
A table of six people, served quickly.
Eight dishes and one soup, of which the braised whole chicken is the main dish, and the braised pig's head meat and pig ears, and the rest have two meat and three vegetables, and the soup is egg drop soup.
And in front of each of them were placed bull's-eye wine glasses.
The wine is two bottles of Moutai.
"Director Zhou, you guys are over the mark."
Vice Mayor Zhang looked at the sumptuous lunch and said lightly.
When he went to the following units to investigate, most of the units received four dishes and one soup, and some of the good conditions were six dishes and one soup.
But eight dishes and one soup, Vice Mayor Zhang has encountered it for the first time.
Moreover, the dishes of the agricultural machinery factory seem to be a little special, several dishes are shiny and shiny, and they look like cold dishes, but they exude a particularly attractive aroma that makes his index finger move.
"Mayor Zhang, don't worry, it is definitely not exceeded."
"It looks like there are a few more dishes, most of which are braised vegetables, and our employees eat them every day."
"It's rare for you to come back, but you can eat the same as our factory workers, it's really sorry."
Zhou Changsong said with a guilty face.
"Pickled vegetables?"
Vice Mayor Zhang was slightly stunned, he really hadn't eaten it.
smiled and said, "Director Zhou, what you said is wrong, what's wrong with eating the same as the employees?" Our work is to go deep among the masses, to the masses, to the masses, and to mingle with the masses in order to carry out our work better. ”
"Yes, yes, you're right."
Zhou Changsong hurriedly admitted his mistake and said, "Then please ask Mayor Zhang to taste the braised vegetables that the employees like to eat." ”
"Good!"
Vice Mayor Zhang agreed, took the lead in using chopsticks, and took a piece of pig's head meat and sent it to his mouth.
The moment he entered, he froze.
This smell is fragrant! Extra spicy!
Just to his taste.
"Delicious!"
Vice Mayor Zhang did not hesitate to praise and tasted several other braised dishes in a row.
The other accompanying Wang Dekun, Qian Fangyi and Ding Junjie had long been attracted by the fragrance of the braised vegetables, and everyone praised them after tasting them.
"I didn't expect braised vegetables to be so delicious."
"yes, spicy and refreshing."
"When it comes to spicy food, none of us can compare to Mayor Zhang."
"Come, on behalf of all the employees of the agricultural machinery manufacturing plant, I would like to give Mayor Zhang a glass and welcome you to come and guide the work."
“……”
In the admiration, the banquet officially began, and it was staggered for a while, so it was not lively.
"Leader, this is your place!"
Halfway through the meal, the waiter in the staff canteen sent a small plate of two braised crucian carp to the table in front of Vice Mayor Zhang first, and said softly.
Bits?
A fresh word.
Wang Dekun, Qian Fangyi and Ding Junjie have never heard of it.
Vice Mayor Zhang raised his eyebrows slightly, with a look of surprise on his face, and said, "Director Zhou, you still have vegetables here." ”
Zhou Changsong didn't know about this, and looked at Wang Lei.
Wang Lei said with a smile: "This is a specially marinated small crucian carp, one for each person." ”
Vice Mayor Zhang nodded and said to Wang Lei with a smile: "You are a good director of the office, and even the position of the Huadu Hotel in the provincial capital is used in the staff canteen." ”
Wang Lei couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, the leader is worthy of being a leader, that is, he is well-informed, he only felt tall when he heard about the position, but he didn't expect Vice Mayor Zhang to have heard of it.
However, seeing Vice Mayor Zhang's happy face, he was relieved.
"Mayor Zhang, leaders, try this braised crucian carp, I specially invited someone to catch it in the Qingjiang River, it's fresh."
"Good!"
Vice Mayor Zhang laughed heartily and said to Wang Dekun and the others: "You all have to taste it, the seat specially prepared by Director Wang is the highest courtesy for entertaining VIPs." ”
Wang Dekun and the others all had smiles on their faces, and they couldn't wait to taste the braised crucian carp.
A meal for the guests of honor.
After eating, Vice Mayor Zhang was still unsatisfied, and kept saying that the braised crucian carp was delicious.
