Chapter 1224: The Cook
Zhu Muyun's new routines have not been tested in practice, and it is unknown whether they can produce results and how much effect they can have. Of course, this kind of routine, the speed of money is not fast, and the amount will not be very large. But as long as a few people are willing to "be superior to others", the living conditions of these dozen or so people in the detention center can be upgraded by one level.
In fact, Zhu Muyun has a deeper meaning, but Watson didn't realize it at this time. In the future, if their comrades are imprisoned in the detention center, they can use this way to make them feel a little better.
"Brother Yun, those who have no money want to live better, what should I do?" Watson asked, he had been a beggar and knew what it was like to starve. For the lower classes, there is an innate protection.
Since Watson accepted culture and had his own thoughts, he was already destined to go down this path. The down-to-earth guard Zhu Muyun is just to repay his kindness. But more importantly, it is necessary to fight for the country and the nation. He wants to change the world and change the fate of the people, this is the tide of history, and no one can stop the torrent.
"It's very easy to do, as long as they want to live a good life, there is a way. We were poor at the beginning, but as long as we had the heart to serve the imperial army, we would soon be able to live a good life. Zhu Muyun said with a smile.
"Ah, will they be willing?" Watson said worriedly that he didn't dare to listen to Zhu Muyun. Such co-optation and enticing is simply a real traitorous behavior.
"You've tasted hunger, you know it's uncomfortable, right? And so they are. In the future, if you don't pay the money, you can just give some porridge, and a handful of rice can be boiled in a pot. Those who pay the money will depend on the amount of money to provide food. As for those who have no money and want to eat well, as long as they are willing to do things for us, they can also eat good. Zhu Muyun said with a smile.
"I'll think about it again." Watson said with a smile.
It was because he knew that starvation was too unpleasant that he didn't want to see others starving. The administrator of the detention center was already in a semi-starved state. As for the prisoners in the detention center, they eat moldy rice and rotten vegetables. Now Zhu Muyun actually said that a handful of rice is going to cook a pot of porridge, is this still porridge? It's not even as good as rice soup.
"You are the director of the detention center, and how you manage it is your business. How you can generate a profit is also your business. To be an extraordinary person, you must do extraordinary things. Zhu Muyun said meaningfully.
"Thank you, Brother Yun." Watson said. This kind of thing can't be done by beating him to death, and letting the prisoner drink rice soup will starve to death.
However, it is possible to provide special meals to prisoners. A plate of tofu outside costs a dime, and it costs a dollar to go to the detention center. At first, Watson was worried about the price, but then he thought that as long as it was ten times the price outside, it would be fine. Since they want to improve their lives, they need to be prepared to pay more.
Watson was born with a bias towards the bottom, and he had a heartfelt resistance to the rich. If you give rice soup to a rich man, he won't care. However, those who drink rice soup are always those who have no money.
Zhu Muyun ate here at noon, and of course Watson had to do his best. Zhu Muyun invited Yu Guohui and Cheng Jilu at the same time, and Rong Houhua of the Intelligence Department was also in Liushuizhou, but Zhu Muyun did not invite him, but just asked Watson to send two dishes to the brother of the Intelligence Department. With the level of Deputy Section Chief Rong Houhua, it is not enough to share the table with him.
"Section Chief Liu, your skills as a cook are very good, no worse than Chef Guo at the dock." After Yu Guohui finished eating, he lit a cigarette and said with a smile.
"Yes, although it is a home-cooked meal, it has a different flavor." Zhu Muyun nodded, the dishes are all simple, tofu, fish, pork ribs, chicken, duck and other dishes, there are not many patterns, but the taste is indeed different. Guo Chuanru's food, if it is said that everyone is beautiful, then Watson's food here is a small jasper.
"Where did you get such a good cook?" Cheng Jilu said with a smile that the life of the three departments was very difficult, although after he became the director, the situation improved, but he could only let the brothers of the three departments have enough to eat. There is still a long way to go before "eating well".
"Speaking of this cook, it was introduced by Director Chen." Watson said proudly that now if you want to find someone to do something, as long as you open your mouth and shout, if you have food to eat, hundreds of people will come immediately. As long as there is a stutter, they will not be paid at all.
However, it is not easy to find a good craft. Watson himself found a number of people, but none of them were satisfied. In the end, after Chen Wangjin heard about it, he introduced him to this woman named "Ju'e". At first glance, Watson saw that this woman was not ugly, she could even be said to be very good-looking, in her thirties, diligent and kind, and most importantly, her life experience was miserable.
came from the north, there was originally a family, but after arriving at Guxing, she was the only one left. The family was ruined and her identity was miserable, and as soon as Watson heard it, he decided to ask for her at that time. No matter how bad her craftsmanship is, she must be kept.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please have tea."
While she was talking, Ju'e held a few cups of tea on a plate and brought them over. She has a beautiful face and a beautiful demeanor, and although she dresses very plainly, she has the charm of a mature woman. Yu Guohui looked at her in a daze, and forgot to serve tea.
"Sir Yu, please have tea." Ju'e was blushing when Yu Guohui saw it, and her eyes didn't dare to look directly at Yu Guohui.
"Okay, okay." Yu Guohui said busily, but when he went to serve tea, he was so hot that he shrank his hand. Ju'e looked at it and sneered, originally Yu Guohui looked at Ju'e intently and put his hand into the tea.
After finishing the tea, Ju'e quickly retreated. The eyes of several men were all staring at her tightly, even if she was a married woman, she couldn't stand it.
"Lao Yu, you have never married, and now the opportunity has come." Cheng Jilu suddenly smiled and said, he is from the past, and he knows that Yu Guohui is tempted at a glance.
To be honest, although Ju'e is passable, she is a countryman after all, and she is also in her thirties. His gaze is very high, and it is okay to tease a few words, but Ju'e can't enter his eyes yet. A martial artist like Yu Guohui has never seen much of the world, and it is rare to have a woman on Liushui Continent, even if it is a sow, he will be tempted when he sees it.
"I'm a soldier, so there's no need to hurt others." Yu Guohui smiled, his current military rank is lieutenant colonel, from the second lieutenant platoon commander who just arrived in the economic department, to the current lieutenant colonel, he has been promoted to four levels in a row.
If he weren't in the Political Security Bureau, this lieutenant colonel would be nothing in Guxing. Some lieutenant colonels, if they have a military rank and no official position, even eating is a problem. In fact, when he was a platoon commander, his life was already worry-free. followed Zhu Muyun at the dock, ate well, and had money. originally planned to buy a property in Guxing, but later transferred to Liushuizhou, and simply lived in Liushuizhou.
This is the original British Consulate, Gu Xing's house, which is not comparable at all. Everything was fine except that there was no entertainment in the evening. Yu Guohui also doesn't go out much, and his only activity is playing cards. Some of his subordinates prefer to live in the city, and as a result, the money they send is spent indiscriminately.
"You're not a soldier now." Zhu Muyun said that he had no say in this regard, after all, he and Yu Xinyu were not successful in holding hands.
"Besides, even if I have a heart, I don't know what people think." Yu Guohui smirked and said that since Zhu Muyun had spoken, he would naturally no longer hide his true thoughts.
"Who are you? Being able to take a fancy to her is a blessing she cultivated in her previous life. Be small first, and then marry the main house when you meet a suitable one. Cheng Jilu said immediately.
"That's not good, our Lao Yu family has never had a precedent for taking a second room." Yu Guohui shook his head, even if he is an official now, he has money, but he has never even thought about marrying his aunt's wife.
"Has your old Yu family ever been a lieutenant colonel?" Cheng Jilu said with a smile, pushing up three generations, everyone is a farmer. Now Yu Guohui's concept is still deep-rooted, but once his status is improved, he will naturally have three wives and four concubines.
"That's not yet." Yu Guohui thought about it and said solemnly. He is the biggest official in their Yu family. If he hadn't entered the Political Security Bureau, he would have been a company commander until now.
"Don't be wishful thinking, Watson, is Ju'e married?" Zhu Muyun suddenly thought of a question, looking at Ju'e's appearance, she should have been married.
"I was married, but the whole family died." Watson said that this bastard has caused many tragedies in the world.
Everyone was silent, they were all Chinese, and Zhu Muyun and Watson were communists, Cheng Jilu was the central unification, and only Yu Guohui was a real "non-party person." In fact, Yu Guohui's position is not firm, he followed Zhu Muyun and did a lot of meaningful things.
"That's fine." Cheng Jilu said.
When the food in the detention center began to appear graded, Watson quickly discovered a problem: some people in the same cell would have better food, while others would have poor food. Therefore, he began to adjust the cells, and the well-fed people lived together.
From the food, Watson touched the bypass, and he thought of living. Eating and living have always been together, and people who eat well certainly want to live well. The weather is starting to get cooler, should I add a quilt at night? Want to sleep on the board? Instead of sleeping on the straw pile now. If you want to sleep well, you naturally have to pay a price.
The detention center was artificially divided into levels, and soon, some people began to want to improve their food. Although the price is ridiculously expensive, anyone can understand that they want to eat better in the detention center. In order to ease their burden, all of them are paid for in "meals".
During the day, you can choose to eat only one good meal. However, even if you eat only one meal, you will be locked up with those who eat three good meals. Drinking rice soup by yourself and watching others have food and vegetables, even if it is just a few pickles, is a great enjoyment.
Of course, for those whose families were really poor and couldn't afford to pay, Watson instead proposed their food standards. His methods are only aimed at the rich.
