Chapter 85 Food Improvement Team

Chapter 85 Food Improvement Team
"I discovered this place by accident. This restaurant is run by the village here. It is in the name of a collective canteen, but it actually serves students from Peking University."

"So here, you don't need a ticket, you just need money. If you want to have a bite to eat in the future, you can come here."

After Li Changhe entered the room, he explained to everyone.

Then, a group of people looked at the blackboard on the wall, on which were written today's dishes.

“Stir-fried liver tips 6 cents”

"Two things for 7 cents"

"Slippery tenderloin, 8 cents"

“Pork dumplings, 9 cents/plate”

There are not many dishes, and the prices are slightly higher than those in the school cafeteria, but cheaper than those in state-owned restaurants.

"I want one portion of each of the dishes above, and a plate of pork dumplings for each person."

Li Changhe was not stingy and ordered one portion of all the dishes listed above without hesitation.

The appetite of these five young men of that era is incomparable to that of young people in later generations.

“There are too many points on this long river”

Although he said he wanted to fight the rich and eat at the wealthy's houses, after seeing Li Changhe ordering dishes, Tao Haisu still felt that he ordered too much.

Li Changhe smiled and shook his head: "That's nothing. Do you know what Haiwen treated me to when I went to the Northeast?"

"Haven spent more than 40 yuan on a meal!"

"Hey man, Haiwen, what did you treat Changhe to?"

Yi Gang on the side asked in surprise at this time.

Haiwen adjusted his glasses and said with a smile, "Nothing much. It just so happened that a brown bear died on the mountain, and the restaurant over there got two bear paws. I treated Changhe to one."

"It's not just bear paws, there's also tiger meat!"

"This is the first time I've eaten those two things in my life."

Li Changhe then told everyone the gossip about the fight between the bear and the tiger, and everyone was stunned.

"Don't say any more. Changhe discussed with me about going into the mountains to hunt. I was stunned at the time."

"Quickly stop his crazy idea"

Haiwen followed up at this time, and seeing that everyone was a little confused, he explained in detail the risks of hunting over there.

"Hey, it sounds like it's more interesting for you to go to the countryside. Unlike me, I was just a cook in Shunyi."

Yi Gang sighed at this time and said that when he went to the countryside in Shunyi, he was the manager of the canteen for the educated youth and his daily task was to cook.

"You, don't be ungrateful for what you have. Just be responsible for cooking every day and you don't have to work. The team will give you ten work points. What a great treatment."

"When we were in the team, we dug the soil in the spring. The ground was as hard as rock. Every time we swung the pickaxe, our arms would go numb. At that time, I thought, if I could stay next to a stove, it would be so wonderful."

Haiwen retorted to Yi Gang that turning the soil in the cold weather in Northeast China is definitely a tough job.

Li Changhe looked at Tao Haisu at this moment: "Old Tao, what happened to you guys just now?"

"Did Zhang Wenxiang take your berth?"

Li Changhe finally asked the question in his mind.

Tao Haisu shook his head: "They didn't steal mine, they stole Yi Gang's."

"When you two went downstairs, Zhang Wenxiang happened to come to the dormitory. He was probably used to being domineering in the local area. When he saw that there was no lower bunk, he threw Yi Gang's things on the upper bunk and directly occupied Yi Gang's lower bunk."

"I told him but he didn't listen. He just said he was too old to climb up to the upper bunk."

"Yi Gang came back and definitely wouldn't let us go. The two of them almost got into a fight."

"So I gave my lower bunk to Zhang Wenxiang, and then I moved to your upper bunk, and we slept on the same bunk bed."

Tao Haisu told what had just happened.

Yi Gang said angrily at this time: "If he had waited for me to come back and discuss it with me, I would have given it to him. It's just a lower bunk."

"But he threw my things on the upper bunk without saying a word. Why should I give them to him?" "We are all here to study. I won't indulge his bad habits."

"Okay, buddy, we'll all be roommates from now on, and we'll all be in the same class. We'll see each other every day, and it's like we're enemies."

They were all students from Class 2, and Tao Haisu acted as a peacemaker.

"We are just meeting for the first time, so we don't know each other very well. We will gradually get to know each other. We are all classmates, and we will have to get along for several more years."

Yi Gang nodded and said nothing more.

At the same time, the restaurant chef began to serve the dishes ordered by Li Changhe and his friends.

Li Changhe glanced at Tao Haisu. This guy is very magnanimous and has high emotional intelligence.

No wonder he could become the director of the county Youth League Committee in the place where the educated youth went to the countryside. The most important thing is that there is a big Buddha standing behind him.

"Come on, let's eat first!"

When the few people saw the dishes coming, they stopped talking and started eating.

They are all young men with big appetites.

There was not a single drop of the dishes and dumplings that Li Changhe ordered at the end.

"It's comfortable, Changhe. I suddenly realize that living in the same dormitory with you is such a blessing."

Yi Gang was full at this time, so he patted his belly and said happily.

"What you said makes me, a person who doesn't live in the same dormitory with Changhe, feel helpless. In this way, everyone can count me as a non-staff member in the future. I must participate in such activities of eating the rich."

Haven said humorously at this time.

This caused the people sitting there to burst into laughter again.

"Well, let's go out and have a good meal together in a few days. Let's make it clear in advance that I'll treat you then."

Tao Haisu spoke at this time.

"Then next time, it will be my turn!"

Kou Kuige also spoke up.

Li Changhe shook his head when he saw this: "If we continue like this, there will be no end to it!"

"Today is the Lantern Festival, this meal is mine."

Today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, which happens to be the Lantern Festival, which is one of the reasons why Li Changhe invited us.

"Next time we go out to eat, we can all chip in together. People like Tao Haiwen and Kou who are paid can each contribute 2 yuan, and people like me and Yi Gang who are unemployed can each contribute yuan."

"If there are new guys joining us in the future, we should also follow this standard, how about that?"

"Of course, you can't have this kind of dinner party too often. If you go out for dinner once a week, it will cost you ten dollars. My suggestion is not to go out more than twice a month. Just have a snack."

Li Changhe smiled and said that it didn't matter whether he contributed two or one dollar, but everyone present except Yi Gang had a salary. If Li Changhe also contributed two dollars, Yi Gang would be completely speechless.

For this kind of dinner, it is easy to ask for the treat at the beginning, but if it happens too many times, conflicts are likely to arise. Those who have more money don’t want to treat all the time, and those who have less money can’t afford it.

If we really treat everyone in turns like Tao Haisu did, a meal would cost at least three or four yuan, and at most five or six yuan, which would be a burden for some people.

For example, Yi Gang was an educated youth and did not receive any salary. Although he did not know how much living expenses his family gave him, it was not a big deal for him to eat like this all the time.

"This method of raising money is good. What Changhe said makes sense. Let's follow this standard in the future. Those who have a salary will contribute 2 yuan, and those who don't will contribute 1 yuan. Those who have time can participate, and those who don't can just focus on their own things first."

"Changhe treated us to a good meal this time, so we'll let him go. Since he doesn't get paid, let him set a standard of 1 yuan as well."

Tao Haisu supported Li Changhe's suggestion with a smile and helped him smooth things over.

"Okay, that's settled. From now on, I think we should call it the Food Improvement Team. Lao Tao is the oldest, so he will be the team leader and coordinate everyone's schedule."

At this time, Haven smiled and gave the organization a name.

Thus, the "Food Improvement Group" which later became famous in Peking University was established on the first day of school at Peking University.
