Siheyuan: the beginning is a sick child

When everyone saw it, there was another burst of envy and hatred in their hearts.

Needless to say, he came to pick up Lin Mancang again.

Sure enough, when Secretary Ma saw so many people and Lin Mancang was there, he was taken aback for a moment, and then waved to Lin Mancang.

Lin Mancang knew that Secretary Ma had a special status, so he walked out immediately.

"Mancang, today the big boss wants you to come and cook, are you free?" Secretary Ma said politely.

"I'm free, as long as the big leader calls me, I'm free at any time." Lin Mancang said with a smile.

"Then can we go now?"

"Of course, but the material?"

"Don't worry, we have enough preparations, all of which are Sichuan cuisine ingredients."

Lin Mancang got into the car and drove away amidst the sound of the engine.

"The leader called a few people today to discuss things together. You go, talk less and do more, understand? Comrade Lin Mancang." Secretary Ma reminded.

"Don't worry, I'm cooking when I go. When I hear it, it goes in my left ear and out of my right ear. If I see it, I forget it when I go out." Lin Mancang said.

"clever."

Soon, the car arrived at the leader's house.

Lin Mancang followed Secretary Ma in. When he reached the living room, Secretary Ma knocked on the door first.

"Come in."

Secretary Ma pushed the door open.

Lin Mancang saw that besides the big leader, there were five people sitting inside, all of them were wearing Chinese tunic suits, and each of them looked imposing, and they should all be in important leadership positions.

"Leader, Comrade Lin Mancang is here." Secretary Ma reported.

"Uh, Mancang is here, let him in."

Lin Mancang went inside and smiled: "Hi, great leader, it's been a long time since you've seen you, and you look more energetic. This is the blessing of our people."

"Haha." The big leader pointed to Lin Mancang, and said to the others: "How is it? Let me just say, this cook is unusual, at least he is not stage fright."

Everyone else looked at Lin Mancang, smiled and nodded.

"That shows that the big leader is approachable, let us little people see you like a spring breeze, and forget what stage fright is." Lin Mancang said.

"Look, they even talked about idioms."

The big leader was even happier: "It's full, I'm going to trouble you again today, do you think I'm worthless?"

"How come, as the saying goes, people are iron and rice is steel. If you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry. Only when you are full and full can you have more energy to contribute to the country. The leader likes the dishes I cook, which means that I indirectly give The country has made a contribution." Lin Mancang said.

"Okay, okay, well said, no matter what, I owe you a favor for letting you put down your job and come to my place to cook. If you have anything to do in the future, feel free to talk about it. As long as it doesn't violate the principle, I can help as much as I can." said the big leader.

"Then I would like to thank the leader first."

"Okay, you go."

"Alright, just wait a moment, it will be ready soon."

Cooking is Lin Mancang's forte. When he went to the kitchen, he saw that all kinds of ingredients were prepared.

The leader's wife was also very happy to see Lin Mancang coming: "Mancang, the leader actually wanted you to cook for a long time, but I'm embarrassed, I always think it's a fake public service, but in fact the leader eats and drinks well, and is in good health Now, can't you make more contributions?"

What he said had the same meaning as Lin Mancang.

"You are so right, so don't be polite in the future, just say hello if you have something to do." Lin Mancang said with a smile.

"Hehe, full warehouse, what the leader likes is your cleverness." The leader's wife said.

Soon, a table of delicious Sichuan dishes was ready.

When the dishes were put on the table, everyone's appetites were whetted just by looking at the dishes and smelling them, and some even swallowed involuntarily.

"Come on, Mancang, you can sit today too." The leader said to Lin Mancang who was about to leave.

"I sit too? This status is not suitable." Lin Mancang said with a smile.

In fact, he comes from modern times and has no such concept at all.

But in this era, you have to do as the Romans do, otherwise, it is easy to be unwelcome.

Especially in the face of big leaders, he still needs to be more cautious.

"There is no right or wrong. Everyone is equal, but the division of labor is different. Today you are a hero, and everyone is honored by you. You just sit." The big leader said.

"Then I'd rather be respectful than obedient." Hearing what the big leader said, Lin Mancang sat in the starting position without being humble.

"Look, does this sound like what a cook said? Respect is worse than obedience, this kid has a set routine." The big leader laughed.

Everyone also nodded yes, and they all thought Lin Mancang was an interesting cook.

Although Lin Mancang has the lowest status here, he is a foreigner after all, so the task of pouring wine still falls on Secretary Ma.

I drank Moutai.

The leader first had a drink with everyone, and then sighed: "Nowadays there is a lot of waste to be done, but everyone is crossing the river by feeling the stones and has no experience. Therefore, our task has a long way to go."

Everyone nodded in agreement, and the atmosphere became tense for a moment.

The big leader looked at Lin Mancang: "Mancang, we study and study every day. Sometimes, we really work behind closed doors. We don't understand the situation at the grassroots level, and we don't know the needs of the masses. Can you look at it from the perspective of the masses? Let's go, tell me what you need most?"

Lin Mancang nodded: "The most important thing is to eat enough before eating well."

Ok?
Everyone looked at Lin Mancang.

"Keep talking." The big leader encouraged.

"Food is the most important thing for the people. For ordinary people, eating is the first priority. They can't get enough to eat. Everything else is out of the question. Painting cakes can't satisfy their hunger."

Everyone's eyes lit up.

"Eat enough, this is the first step, wait until you are full, then think about how to eat well." Lin Mancang continued.

"Comrade Mancang, why do I think you are too materialistic?" One of them said.

"The economic base determines the superstructure, and the material determines the consciousness. This is the basic point of view of philosophy." Lin Mancang said with a slight smile.

boom!
Everyone's brains were shocked.

Instead of studying recipes, this cook actually studied philosophy.

It is really impossible to refute.

"Our ancients also said that Canglan knows etiquette in real life. I think everyone should know the meaning of this sentence."

"So, what we ordinary people want most is to eat enough first, and then we can have the strength to do better construction."

"It's like the leaders, it's a truth that you can serve the public better if you eat well."

In the room, quiet down.

Even, the silence is a little scary.

Secretary Ma sighed and kept winking at Lin Mancang.

Lin Mancang was also a little worried, whether he had talked too much, after all, the times are different, and the consciousness is also different.

Just when Lin Mancang was about to smooth things over with a smile, the big leader raised his hands and clapped his hands.

Then, the others also looked at Lin Mancang and began to applaud enthusiastically.

"Comrade Lin Mancang, you are not simple. You shouldn't be a cook. You don't look like you have no schooling. Instead, you seem to be well-fed and highly educated." The leader said sincerely, looking at Lin Mancang's eyes were full of appreciation.
