Chapter 37
The Eldest Uncle worried that Shazhu's future would be damaged and that he wouldn't have the ability to support him in his old age.
The Second Uncle gloated: "Let's see if Shazhu is still arrogant in the future."
After lunch, the cafeteria director held a meeting for everyone in the cafeteria.
First, he sternly criticized Shazhu's stir-frying behavior, work attitude, and ideological style.
Then, he praised Cao Weiguo for his serious work, dedication to duty, and unity with fellow workers.
Finally, he promoted Cao Weiguo to replace Shazhu in managing the daily work of the cafeteria.
In just a few days, the situation in the cafeteria had changed drastically.
Cao Weiguo had caught up from behind, and Shazhu had left in disgrace.
After the meeting, Ma Hua, Fatty, and the others became quails, trembling with fear.
Li Dong, Ma Liang, and Liu Limin were jubilant.
Liu Lan and the group of neutralists enthusiastically offered congratulations, following the direction of the wind.
After work, Cao Weiguo lent his bike to Liu Limin and then privately invited the cafeteria director to eat at Donglaishun.
A meal of mutton hotpot and a round of drinks.
The cafeteria director ate until his mouth was oily and drank until he was overjoyed.
He praised and courted Cao Weiguo, patting his chest to guarantee promotion and heavy use.
Cao Weiguo naturally climbed up the pole, expressing his loyalty to the cafeteria director.
One more friend means one more path.
Having a good relationship with one's direct superior definitely has no downsides.
Moreover, he also wanted to use the cafeteria director to handle the ingredients he had accumulated.
Cao Weiguo said: "Director, a friend of mine has dozens of chickens on hand and entrusted me to ask if the factory would accept them."
"Dozens of chickens?"
The cafeteria director's eyes lit up: "Accepting them is possible, but the price won't be too high."
Cao Weiguo said with a smile: "5% lower than the market price."
The cafeteria director licked his lips greedily: "10%, you can bring them to the cafeteria at any time."
Cao Weiguo remained silent, looking troubled, and the cafeteria director didn't urge him.
A moment later, Cao Weiguo said: "Settled on the spot."
The cafeteria director said happily: "Can do."
Eating a meal of mutton hotpot and making money on top of it, the cafeteria director was very happy.
Cao Weiguo, who had thrown out a feeler, was also happy.
Although the price was lower than the pigeon market, it was a new path to wealth.
Moreover, this was a business with no capital; whatever he sold was pure profit.
The meal was enjoyed by both host and guest.
Cao Weiguo packed up the leftovers and returned to the Sihe Academy, smelling of alcohol.
"Weiguo is back."
As soon as he entered the Sihe Academy, the Third Uncle approached him with a smile.
Cao Weiguo said: "Third Uncle, you haven't slept yet?"
The Third Uncle said with a smile: "I'm getting old, I don't sleep much, unlike you young people who eat well and sleep soundly."
Cao Weiguo said: "Third Uncle, you aren't old at all; you're in your prime, and you will definitely cultivate more pillars of talent for the motherland."
The Third Uncle said happily: "Hey, I like hearing Weiguo say that."
Having said that, the Third Uncle stared greedily at the leftovers in Cao Weiguo's hand: "Weiguo, where did you go to drink again? Can you give these leftovers to your Third Uncle?"
Cao Weiguo held up the packed leftovers: "These are frozen tofu, meatball soup, mushrooms, cabbage, radishes, and a few heads of sugar-garlic that I packed from Donglaishun; I'm saving them for tomorrow."
After hearing this, the Third Uncle's eyes lit up even more; these were all good things.
The Third Uncle rubbed his hands, itching with desire: "Weiguo, you know my family has many mouths to feed; we don't even have enough steamed buns and pickled vegetables to eat. Help your uncle out."
Cao Weiguo suddenly asked: "Third Uncle, didn't you say you would help me introduce a partner? How is that going?"
The Third Uncle's eyes darted, and he smiled: "If you give this food to your uncle, your Third Uncle will put in more effort for you."
Cao Weiguo said irritably: "Third Uncle, are you treating me like a fish? Fishing for me?"
The Third Uncle sighed: "Hey, it's not that your uncle won't help you, it's just that Yu Haitang that girl has too high standards; she didn't agree."
Cao Weiguo said unhappily: "She looks down on me, then let's end this matter here."
The Third Uncle comforted him: "Weiguo, don't be discouraged. Missing out on an outstanding young man like you is Yu Haitang's misfortune. Later, your uncle will introduce you to someone better; we have many female teachers in our school."
Cao Weiguo stuffed the packed food into the Third Uncle's hand: "Fine, just for your kind intentions, I'll thank you first."
The Third Uncle was pleasantly surprised and beamed: "Thank you, Weiguo. Don't worry, your uncle will definitely not let you suffer a loss." ===== CHAPTER 39 =====
