Chapter 319: two cooks

 At the pier.

All the village cadres stood with Li Duoyu, and even the women's director Liu Xiuzhu came.

 Zhang Jinsha looked at his watch:

 “It’s already ten o’clock, and the leaders haven’t come yet.”

 “What’s the rush? If the leader can arrive on time, is he still called a leader?”

"makes sense."

There was a man named Chen Youcai from Chenjia Village who made a special trip to Xiasha Village to sell fish.

 After the relationship between the two villages was restored, the fishermen in Chenjia Village liked to bring the fish to Xiasha Village to sell them, because the purchase price in Xiasha Village would be a little higher than the purchase price in their village.

 After selling the fish.

 Chen Youcai couldn't help but ask:

“Lao Mi, all the village cadres from your village are here at the dock. Are they waiting for someone?”

 Old man Mi replied:

"That should be the case. If they come together, there is a high probability that a leader will come to the island."

 Chen Youcai sighed:

“I really envy your village. Leaders come to inspect our village every three days, and it’s often published in newspapers. Unlike our village, where we go to the fair and say we are from Chenjia Village, others think we are from which town.”

 Old man Mi took a puff of cigarette and said:

“Your village is run by a bunch of old men who are relatively conservative in their thinking and don’t know how to do publicity. If you find some young people who are good at getting things done and have more flexible minds, maybe the leaders will go to your side.”

“Forget it, according to our rules, you can’t be elected as a village cadre until you are fifty years old.”

"Then there's no way."

 At this moment, a big ship appeared in everyone's field of vision.

 Zhang Jinsha stared at it with wide eyes.

"finally come."

 An iron ship with a fishery policy printed on it slowly docked.

 After the ship has stopped.

 A middle-aged man in formal attire who looked like a leader walked at the front.

 Behind him were Secretary Chen and Mayor Gao from Shangfeng Town, followed by Director Zhang and Chen Dongqing from the Fisheries Research Institute. At the end of the team, there was a middle-aged man dressed as a "chef".

Chen Youcai asked curiously: "Who is the leader at the front? Why does our town secretary and mayor seem to be just like his younger brothers?"

 Old man Mi frowned slightly. He was really impressed by the person walking at the front, because he was the head of the anti-smuggling law enforcement team during the mass arrests of smugglers.

His identity is not simple, he is the secretary of the big leader, Huang Qingfeng.

When he went to sell goods at Rongcheng Wharf, he would occasionally hear local fishmongers talking about him.

After Huang Qingfeng got off the boat, he greeted Li Duoyu and said, "Director Li, I'm sorry, I'm a little late."

 “Director Huang, you’re welcome, we’ve just arrived a while ago.”

Huang Qingfeng glanced at it: "You should know what we came to the island this time."

Li Duoyu nodded and said:

“I know, Secretary Chen, Mayor Gao, and Director Zhang already informed us two months ago.”

“Then let’s cut the story short and go through the process, what do you think?”

Li Duoyu scratched his head and said, "You're in such a hurry and you've been on the boat for so long. Why don't you go to the village committee to have tea first and take a rest?"

Secretary Huang frowned and said, "In your office, is there a table for making tea?"

"No."

Secretary Huang said disgustedly: "No, why did you ask me to drink tea? You clearly don't want to entertain me."

"Director Huang, you really misunderstood. I just don't stay in the office very often. If I really buy a tea table, it will just grow dust there."

 “Not stingy yet.”

Mayor Gao laughed: "Duoyu, Director Huang said so, and quickly bought a table that can make tea."

Secretary Huang looked around, and then walked to the public toilet near the pier to take a look.

Li Duoyu thought he would just take a look outside, but unexpectedly he actually went in to visit.

 After such a large group of people entered, Zhao Dahai, who was squatting in the pit, was completely confused. He was a little constipated originally, and after squatting for more than half an hour, he finally felt something.

 But after being watched by everyone, that feeling was suddenly frightened away.

 After Secretary Huang came out.

 He nodded with great satisfaction.

“Duoyu, your public toilets are pretty good. They are no worse than those in the city.”

Li Duoyu replied: "They are all Secretary Chen, Mayor Gao, and Director Zhang. They provide good guidance. I am just an errand boy."

 When Li Duoyu said this.

Secretary Chen and the others were stunned for a moment. They were almost not involved in this matter. How could it be directed by them?

Secretary Huang glanced at Secretary Chen and the others, and then looked meaningfully at Li Duoyu.

This guy knows how to sell favors very well.

“By the way, your garbage station is quite interesting. It also separates dry garbage and wet garbage. Your concept is very advanced. Where did you learn it?”

“This is what I learned when Chief Chen and I went to the island country. The sanitation improvement plan for Xiasha Village was also discussed by Chief Chen and me.”

 See Li Duoyu mention himself.

Although Chen Dongqing acted calm and relaxed, she was happy in her heart: My sister did not raise this son in vain.

Zhang Qingyun looked at Li Duoyu with admiration. He was indeed right. Although this guy is young, he is not the kind of person who likes to take credit.

 Secretary Huang smiled.

"It seems that you have gained quite a lot from your trip to the island country. How about I apply for a lecture for you and let you tell us what you saw and heard during the inspection in the island country."

Li Duoyu quickly waved his hand and said:

“Leader, please don’t. I’m just a little smart. Once I stand on the podium, my legs may become weak and I’ll stutter to the point where I can’t speak.”

Huang Qingfeng smiled and said: "This is not like you. I didn't know who it was at the beginning. When we first met, I had a lot of chats with the leader and promised to promote coastal kelp farming."

Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly.

To be honest, if he were to go on stage to talk about what he saw and heard in the island country, Li Duoyu could talk for a whole day about "environmental sanitation" alone.

Having stayed in the island country for more than 20 years, in addition to learning some Japanese and cooking skills, what he learned the most was probably garbage sorting.

In that weird country, the classification and disposal of garbage have reached an unreasonable level.

 The disposal of a beverage bottle can really drive Chinese people crazy.

 A beverage bottle should be divided into three types of garbage, namely the bottle body, bottle cap and label, and thrown into different trash cans respectively.

 But Li Duoyu doesn’t have much hope for domestic health at all.

 The main reason is that given the general environment here, some habits cannot be changed by shouting slogans.

This time Li Duoyu built a lot of fixed garbage points in the village, but after smoking, everyone is still used to throwing away the cigarette butts, and few people will take the initiative to throw them to the garbage points.

 And there are more people smoking.

There is no shortage of phlegm. Here at the pier, you can often see a mouthful of phlegm after just a few steps.

Li Duoyu feels that the reason why island countries look clean is not because of the high quality of their citizens, but because it is illegal to litter there.

 It’s not just a fine.

 In serious cases, you may have to go to jail.

 Speak harshly.

Li Duoyu's move is only temporary. It won't be long before Dandan Island will return to its original appearance.

Li Duoyu has a deep understanding of this. In his previous life, after Dandan Island became a tourist attraction, many advanced public toilets were built.

 But as long as no one cleans that public toilet, even dogs won't want to go in within two days. During this period, garbage classification was carried out for a period of time, but it only lasted for a while. Once the above policies were relaxed, everyone returned to the original state.

To be honest, if you really want to get rid of this bad habit, unless a law is introduced, it is almost impossible to rely solely on self-consciousness.

After Secretary Huang walked around the village, he said with great satisfaction:

“Yes, it’s done very well. The money is spent wisely. In terms of hygiene, there’s not much problem.”

Secretary Huang continued:

“By the way, Duoyu, let me introduce you formally. This is Chef Liu Gengsheng of our compound.”

“At that time, the inspection group may have a light meal on the island. You can take Chef Liu to see what kind of seafood is available on the island. At that time, we will also treat the inspection group to a local seafood feast.”

"ah!"

Li Duoyu was suddenly stunned. The inspection team was going to have a casual meal on the island, which somewhat broke his plan.

Li Duoyu originally planned to arrange eel rice for the delegation members when they visited the eel factory.

 Further,

Promote his eel, but if there is a banquet, he can't promote his grilled eel.

“But in our village, there is no place to entertain distinguished guests.”

Mayor Gao said with a smile:

"This is simple. If there is no space, we will be responsible for it. As long as you are given an open space, I will guarantee to build a venue for you."

 Li Duoyu’s mouth twitched.

When Chef Liu arrived at the pier, he just glanced at the seafood and revealed the names of the seafood one after another.

 “Salt and pepper shrimp.”

 “Cold jellyfish head.”

 “Steamed large yellow croaker.”

 “Chicken juice and sea clam soup.”

 “Red sturgeon eight-treasure rice.”

Secretary Huang said: "Chef Liu, tell Director Li how much seafood you need directly. When the time comes, he will arrange the ingredients for you."

Li Duoyu said: "Chef Liu is really good. He can tell what to cook just by looking at the seafood. But Chef Liu probably hasn't been to the island country yet."

 “I’ve definitely never been there.”

“That’s right, I suggest adding a few more special dishes from our Dandan Island.”

Secretary Huang asked curiously: "Tell us what special dishes you have."

Li Duoyu said: “The first dish is the pen holder.”

After hearing the name, everyone was stunned for a moment and were not very optimistic about this dish because it was too ugly.

Mayor Gao said: "The penholder tastes okay, but this dish can't be put on the table."

Li Duoyu shook his head:

“Although people here don’t like to eat Bijia very much, it is indeed a very precious ingredient in the island country.”

Chen Dongqing said: "I can testify to this. People there really like to eat this stuff."

Chef Liu asked: “Besides the pen holder, is there anything else?”

Li Duoyu continued: "Also, the second dish is grilled eel."

 “Kabayaki eel?”

 Rao is the well-informed Chef Liu, and when he heard the name of this dish, he also frowned.

Chen Dongqing, who had been to the island country with him, was surprised: "Duoyu, is your kabayaki eel the kind of grilled eel we eat in the island country?"

 “That’s right, it’s that kind of eel.”

“Don’t you need a recipe? When did you learn to make this dish?”

Huang Mi said: "Director Li, do you have any ready-made kabayaki eel here?"

 “Not yet.”

Li Duoyu scratched his head and said: "If you are not in a hurry to leave, I can make it for you now."

“I’m not in a hurry. We came to the island today just to finalize the details of the reception.”

　　"Okay, I'll make it for you freshly. It only takes about an hour."

Li Duoyu took the people directly to the eel factory, then caught four eels from the breeding pond, and grilled the eels for everyone on the spot.

 Let laymen watch the fun.

  Chef Liu, an expert, frowned immediately after seeing Li Duoyu’s knife skills.

“Secretary Huang, I want to ask you something. Has Director Li ever been a chef before?”

“I really don’t know this, but he used to be a smuggler, so I do know.”

Chef Liu frowned. Although Li Duoyu showed a few simple moves, his knife skills would not have been possible without four or five years of practice.

 More than an hour later.

Li Duoyu shared the grilled eel with everyone.

Secretary Huang didn’t have high expectations at first. He had traveled extensively with his boss over the years and had eaten a lot of foie gras and bear paws.

I thought that rarely had ingredients that could make him feel delicious, but didn't think of this simple eel, but made him have an impulse to come to a bowl of white rice.

Secretary Huang took the initiative to ask Chen Dongqing: "Chief Chen, you have also been to the island country. How does Director Li's grilled eel compare with what you eat in the island country?"

Chen Dongqing replied: "The flavor is slightly different, but I think Director Li's grilled eel is even more delicious than what we eat in the island country."

 “Your comment is a bit unexpected.”

 Huang Mi looked at Chef Liu: "Old Liu, what do you think of this dish?"

 Chef Liu, who had already eaten several bites, was really surprised.

This dish looks very simple, just like barbecue, but in fact, it is not that simple.

Director Li has a few brushes.

“There is no problem with this dish. The eel is full of color, aroma and taste, and the overall taste is very good. It is just like pork belly, it is easy to get tired. It needs to be paired with white rice and something refreshing.”

 After ordering all the dishes.

 Finally, drinks.

Tentatively, it was Maotai and Rongcheng beer, but Li Duoyu felt that it would be a waste to give them such good wine.

Moutai liquor is so popular in China that overseas markets are severely hampered, and it can’t even open up sales.

“I don’t think it’s necessary to use Moutai, just use local green and red wine.”

Secretary Huang asked curiously: "Tell me the reason?"

Li Duoyu thought about it and said:

“We established diplomatic relations with Nagasaki, isn’t it just because there are many of our expatriates there?”

"In the early years, they brought a lot of culture with them, so the wine there is not much different from the local wine here. Using our local wine can make the other party feel at home, and even trace their origins. In this way It can invisibly bring the distance between the two parties closer.”

 After hearing this, Secretary Huang was also very surprised. He frowned and looked at Li Duoyu. The more he got in touch with this kid, the more he realized that it was not simple.

 Looking very rough and unambitious, I just want to guard this small island all day long, but in fact, it is very stable.

Last time, the leader said that bringing such a person into their circle would harm him.

 He finally understands now.

When leaving, Huang Qingfeng said: "By the way, it seems you haven't submitted a work report for a long time."

"ah."

Li Duoyu looked confused. This could not be submitted to the town committee. How could Secretary Huang know about it?

Secretary Huang smiled: "Don't look at me, I don't have time to read your report."

Although it was not stated clearly who was watching, everyone already knew it.

Zhang Qingyun sighed with emotion and whispered: "Holly, why don't you advise your nephew to stop engaging in breeding and just pursue an official career? If he can go up, we will have an extra supporter." (End of this chapter.) )
