Chapter 220: The Steel Mill

Chapter 220: The Steel Mill
While Li Shengli's family was living a peaceful life, Banggeng was learning how to project movies from Xu Damao, and now he was able to project movies independently.

Banggeng was also an unstable person. He totally ignored what Xu Damao had agreed with him. After going to the countryside, he moved all the things he brought back from the countryside back to his home.

Xu Damao saw Banggeng coming back from the countryside without bringing anything, and asked him with narrowed eyes where the things he brought back were. Banggeng said calmly that no one had given him anything.

Either Banggeng has some ulterior motives, but he is not very smart. Xu Damao is an old projectionist, so he knows that the public society will not give anything.

After the fight between Banggeng and Liu Guangfu, Qin Jingru and Qin Huairu had a falling out, and Banggeng was fired by Xu Damao.

Xu Damao is such a smart man that he didn't even bother to hire Banggeng. He was just a temporary worker in the factory and could be fired at any time.

After Banggeng was fired from the factory, Qin Huairu found him a job as a street cleaner. This job was not very decent, so every time Banggeng would wear a mask and slack off on the street. Finally one day he was reported and could no longer bear it, so he quit.

Now Banggeng is back to being idle.

"Shazhu, this won't work. If Banggeng continues to stay like this, he'll be ruined." Qin Huairu was very anxious. Banggeng had no work and the weather was always bad. This would affect their marriage. What if Banggeng disagreed again?

"I don't have any good solution for this." Sha Zhu was also a little anxious. He couldn't wait any longer. He was already 40 years old. If he didn't get married, he would not even have children in the future.

"Sha Zhu, do you want to go ask Director Yang?" Sha Zhu didn't have a senior leader this time, so Qin Huairu could only ask Sha Zhu to ask Director Yang, who had a good relationship with him.

"I can ask Director Yang, but the key problem lies with Bang Geng. This guy looks down on ordinary jobs." Sha Zhu didn't have any good solution either. The main reason was that Bang Geng looked down on cooks and workers. Qin Huairu had been receiving that little salary for more than ten years. If he entered the factory and wanted to get a high salary, how long would he have to wait?

"Why don't you go and ask him if he wants to go with me to the kitchen of the steel rolling mill." Sha Zhu thought about it and felt that he was quite familiar with Director Yang. So it would be okay to ask Director Yang to help arrange someone to go into the kitchen when the time comes.

"Okay, I'll go ask." Qin Huairu thought about it and decided that Banggeng couldn't be delayed like this. Besides, if Banggeng also learned cooking from Shazhu, then there would be two people bringing lunch boxes home in the future.

Qin Huairu returned home and found Banggeng lying on the bed idle: "Banggeng, it's a problem if you sit idle like this. I'll let Shazhu send you to the kitchen of the steel mill."

"I won't go. How long will it take for a stinky cook to learn how to cook?" Bang Geng turned over and answered sullenly, "Besides, I don't want to work with Sha Zhu."

"Hey, you kid." Qin Huairu frowned anxiously.

"Banggeng, if you ask me, there's nothing wrong with being a cook. Look at the lunch boxes you ate when you were a child. Aren't they all taken away by Shazhu from the canteen?" Jia Zhang felt that Banggeng was a little ungrateful. What a good cook! A cook would never starve to death even in years of famine.

"Yes, brother, have you forgotten that you were the one who enjoyed eating the most delicious food from Uncle Sha's lunch box when you were a child?" Huaihua was also persuading Banggeng. The most urgent task now was to send him to the steel mill.

The four people took turns to persuade him, and Banggeng finally agreed to work in the steel mill's kitchen. However, he also put forward a condition, which was that he did not want to work with Shazhu.

"Oh, you finally agreed. It doesn't matter if you don't work with Sha Zhu. He is now the canteen director of the steel mill. Let him arrange a comfortable position for you." Jia Zhang was relieved. In their eyes, positions in the steel mill are very popular.

Qin Huairu was also relieved. To be honest, she was not in a hurry to get married to Shazhu. Shazhu was completely under her control. The main thing was that she couldn't let Banggeng become decadent. "Banggeng agreed." Qin Huairu came to Shazhu's room and said to him with a surprised look on her face.

"I agree." Sha Zhu was very happy, as this proved that he was very close to getting married.

"But Banggeng said he doesn't want to work with you." Qin Huairu stated Banggeng's conditions.

"Hey, it seems this kid is still angry. I'll go ask Li Shengli in the front yard if he still accepts apprentices." Sha Zhu thought about it and realized that besides himself, the only chef in the factory was Li Shengli.

"Go find him." Qin Huairu was a little embarrassed. Li Shengli's family had not dealt with her family for such a long time. It was too difficult to ask Banggeng to be his disciple.

"Then you go and talk to him and see if he will give you the face. I will go find Bang Geng." Qin Huairu didn't have any good ideas. Li Shengli was really something. He said that the two families would not have any dealings for such a long time but he didn't even say a word.

The two separated, Qin Huairu went home and started working on the stick, while Sha Zhu went straight to the front yard.

"He Yuzhu, what's the matter this time?" Li Shengli asked curiously as he looked at Shazhu who knocked on his door again.

It's very strange, why does Shazhu always come to see me recently?

"Li Shengli, this is what's going on. Are you still accepting disciples?" Sha Zhu first exchanged a few words with Li Shengli, and then asked with an embarrassed smile.

"No." Li Shengli didn't expect that Sha Zhu came here this time to make Bang Geng worship him as his master.

"No, you're a good cook and you only have two apprentices. Why don't you take one more?" Sha Zhu winked at Li Shengli.

"Oh, why take in apprentices? One is enough. Among my two apprentices, only one is successful, and the other is useless." Li Shengli sighed. Liu Xikui hasn't practiced for several years and now he can't even cook a big pot of food.

Thanks to the stable job at the steel rolling mill, he was able to keep his job.

"He Yuzhu, do you have anything else to say?" Li Shengli had a rough idea of ​​Shazhu's plan, but Li Shengli had no intention of accepting a disciple. Even if he wanted to accept another disciple, he would not accept a child from the Jia family.

"It's nothing, you can continue to rest." After saying this, Sha Zhu turned around and went back to the central courtyard without saying the purpose of his visit.

Sha Zhu returned home and found Qin Huairu and Bang Geng, and told them about his conversation with Li Shengli.

After hearing what Sha Zhu said, Jia Zhang started to curse. She didn't expect Li Shengli to be so stubborn and just say no to contact with her.

"Forget it, I won't accept you as a disciple. Banggeng, just follow your silly uncle and work hard." Qin Huairu sighed. This was something she had expected. She had just convinced Banggeng.
