I'm really just the village head

Chapter 553: Difficult Town Leaders

"The master, really want to change the recipe for tomorrow? This banquet is nothing else, and there are so many people in the old Liu family, more than 100 tables..."

While helping to wash the dishes, Xu Huaihua asked Liu Zefu who was sitting next to him smoking.

There are several other daughters-in-laws of the Liu family to help wash the dishes.

Although some ingredients are processed in the afternoon, other banquets with hundreds of seats, especially for steaming or deep-frying, or blanching or other, must be prepared first.

The dam seats in rural areas are not very particular.

As the master chef, but not careless.

Especially in the era of scarcity of materials, the host of the banquet is exhausting everything and trying his best to display all the good ingredients that can be found, so as to leave a good impression in front of friends and family.

Under normal circumstances, it is not a happy event, and no one will specially invite a chef to the table.

The last time the ancestor worshipped, the old Liu family held a clan assembly, but there was no meeting.

The three sacrifices used to sacrifice to the ancestors are divided by each family according to their heads. Although there are not many, they are better than nothing.

This time, it was the first big scene in the old Liu family in ten years!

Naturally sloppy.

Liu Zefu is going to change the menu at this time. If it is to make some big dishes, it will be too late.

Xu Huaihua is not a chef. She has followed Liu Zefu to help the chef since she was young. She naturally understands these things.

For more than a hundred seats, any dish requires more than one hundred servings.

Just this afternoon, the pigs killed five!

The five pigs were fat pigs of nearly two hundred catties, and they were all transported from Wangshan Commune Food Station.

It takes a long time to process these hundreds of catties of meat.

"It’s too late. There are some dishes, it’s not necessary to make all the tables! Just make those for the main table." Liu Zefu gritted his teeth and said, "This is considered a clan convention. As usual, the main table has a few more final dishes than other tables. , That's normal."

Xu Huaihua could not refute.

Convention, she knew it.

Liu Baye entrusted all these matters to Liu Zefu, naturally, it depends on whether he can afford to get on the table.

"This is Brother Chunlai praised us. If this matter is broken, who will invite us to dinner in the future? Even the cafeteria does not have ours! We are originally unfortunate people, and we must be lucky for celebrations... …Brother Chunlai praised us and gave us a chance, so we have to make a profit for him!"

Liu Zefu let out a sigh of relief.

Several of his daughters were not brought out, only one was left, who was still sickly.

Liu Chunlai didn't dislike it, and let his family take charge of the canteen. This time, the hundreds of banquets were handed over to him, and Liu Baye didn't even object.

If he doesn't win honor to the captain, he will be embarrassed to cook again in the future.

Xu Huaihua's face was sad, and no longer objected, "What are you going to add?"

"Boiled cabbage and peony fish fillet, plus another elegant and popular appreciation! These three are enough for the finale. Those few foreigners don't mean that our Sichuan cuisine has no light taste..."

Liu Zefu had a certain number in his mind.

When Yang Dingtian said that tonight, he was ready to let this ignorant person have a good experience.

The boiled cabbage and peony fish fillet are in the Man Han Banquet!

At the same time, it is also the finale of the state banquet!

"Elegant and popular!"

Xu Huaihua exclaimed, "The master, this dish, back then..."

"The environment was different before. This craft was handed down by our ancestors. Even if no one learns it, at least, it must be tasted again!"

Liu Zefu said with a serious face.

Some crafts have been lost.

In fact, it is not lost.

It takes too much time and waste of ingredients.

Soon, Liu Zefu called over a dozen people who were helping the kitchen and began to assign them various tasks. Even if the rooster crowed from a distance, it did not affect everyone's enthusiasm for work.

sleepy?

That doesn't exist.

Starting tomorrow, the entire Liu family will be a brand new beginning.

If some basic projects are completed, development will be faster.

Liu Chunlai was sleepy.

In this era, the biological clock has been developed, and there is no entertainment. Every day I go to bed before ten o'clock in the evening and get up at about four in the morning.

I drank a bit too much tonight, making me sleepier.

However, I can't sleep at all.

Liu Fuwang and others dragged him to continue discussing tomorrow's arrangements.

"Father, it's very late. It has been discussed before. Everyone has a clear division of labor. What else is discussed?"

Liu Chun came to hit a Hatche.

Liu Jiuwa and Liu Qianshan had returned and told him that the others had already arranged.

Baye Liu went to bed earlier.

"It's not about the arrangement, hiccups~ Hongshan Town is our superior unit in charge. We have always crossed the town. This time we did not invite the leaders of the town... Tomorrow the county leaders will come, and they will definitely follow... …"

Yan Jinsong hiccups while talking.

He did not drink less.

The leading cadre of Hongshan Town?

Liu Chunlai has been the captain for such a long time, and he hasn't seen him yet.

For a while, I was stunned, "This is indeed our mistake, especially when we are going to annex a brigade of Qingshan Commune. It is not a good thing if the town does not pass, and it is directly skipped to the county."

The magistrate is better off now.

If the town leaders are dissatisfied because of this, many things will be difficult to handle later.

Although there was support from county leaders, the immediate superiors were dissatisfied, so they would not sign any letters there, and they would have to make many trips.

Liu Chunlai was too busy all day to consider this issue.

He thought that Yan Jinsong and others had already passed through the town.

"We can't be blamed for this. I went to them before, knowing that we were going to build the road, thinking it was looking for money and food in the town..." Yan Jinsong sighed.

"In other words, the town leaders actually don't want to see us!" Ma Wenhao also sighed.

Liu Chunlai did not expect this to be the reason.

It's not that the commune cadres haven't visited them, but the town is also poor at the moment, afraid that they will support it.

"This is the case now, but I still have to remedy it, Secretary Yan, or let Qianshan drive two cars tomorrow to pick up the town leaders." Liu Chunlai pondered for a while, and it might not be too late.

Don’t let the town’s leaders stumble on all kinds of small things.

"Go to pick them up? The county leaders are all coming by themselves..." Yan Jinsong was a little unhappy.

"A lot of our things have to be signed and stamped by the town. Although it is said that the town can be pressured through the county, it will not last long after all."

Liu Chunlai knows better than them.

It's not that Yan Jinsong and Ma Wenhao didn't understand this.

Everyone was poor, and the town's jurisdiction over the county was relatively strong.

Yan Jinsong asked County Mayor Lu and Secretary Xu to stay away. They couldn't possibly be welcomed in the town leader's office.

There would be no benefits.

Now, the commune has become stronger, and the town is still like that.

Naturally, Yan Jinsong and others didn't wait to see the town to share their benefits.

But this matter, at this stage, there is no way.

"I have to be busy tomorrow morning..."

Yan Jinsong and Ma Wenhao exchanged their eyes for a while, and they knew this clearly.

"Starting at five o'clock, it's almost the time. They should come over. I arranged for Qianshan to take people to drive there. Just in time, the upstart Jin Defu drove two cars over..." Liu Chun said.

The two no longer objected.

Liu Fuwang didn't say a word during the whole process.

Things were discussed almost, it was already past 12 o'clock in the evening.

"Father, please accompany Secretary Yan and Chief Ma to the guest house on the top of the mountain. I won't go back tonight. I will ask Qianshan to send you up..."

"No, let's just walk up. Qianshan will have to drive to town again early tomorrow morning..." Liu Fuwang did not consider the feelings of the two commune cadres, and directly refused.

Liu Chunlai was really too sleepy, so he stopped insisting.

After sending a few people out, I went back and fell asleep.

It was late at night.

In the early 1980s, even at the forefront of reform and opening up, not many people were still active at this time.

Of course, except for some nightclubs.

In the remote areas of the west, there are no nightclubs.

By this time, there were not even many lights.

Hongshan Town.

In the small meeting room of the town government.

Several leading cadres all had serious faces and kept smoking, making the small conference room full of smoke.

No one spoke.

The cause of all this lies in their subordinate Happiness Commune.

They all knew what Yan Jinsong was.

During this period of time, there has been a lot of movement in the Happy Commune, and the leaders of Hongshan Town did not know it.

But there is no way to provide any support.

Although Happiness Commune is poor, it is definitely not the poorest commune in Hongshan Town.

The leader of the poor town is also not easy to be a leader.

The entire town has a population of tens of thousands.

There are more than ten communes under them, and the roads of all the communes have not even been completely repaired!

It is all about money to build roads.

"Let’s talk about it. It’s not realistic to turn a blind eye. County Mayor Lu and Secretary Xu will definitely go tomorrow. If we don’t go..." A 50-year-old cadre with a Chinese character face wiped out the cigarette he had smoked in his hand I scanned the ashtray on the table and finally spoke.

When everyone else heard this, they just sighed.

"Mayor Liao, the old man Yan Jinsong is a problem for us. Go, what can we do? If we don't go, the county leaders will know... If they go, they will ask for money and food in front of the county leaders. What can we give?"

Another cadre who was about the same age asked Mayor Liao Zhigao with a wry smile.

He is the town secretary, Qi Heping.

The others are the main leaders of the town.

Hearing this, Liao Zhigao also looked bitter.

In the past, they avoided the Happy Commune because they were afraid that they would want money, food, and tax relief.

The town government does not have much initiative in these matters. The communes below ask for money and grain, so they can only spend what the town can spend.

More than a dozen communes.

Once the opening is opened, the leaders of the town will stop working every day and avoid the commune cadres below.
