Ten years of film queen, finally became a top star

Chapter 243 Expensive Porcelain

At dinner time, Auntie took Yu Jiang and Ran Feng to the cafeteria to eat.

Since this is a catering industry, some employees will eat at staggered times.

For example, front-of-house service staff will take turns eating before mealtime, and kitchen staff will eat after mealtime.

Yu Jiang, with his fragile stomach, was lucky enough to have a job that allowed him to eat on time. He would happily pick up the vegetable leaves to eat while holding his plate.

Finding low-fat dishes in a big pot of delicious food should be a very difficult and painful task.

But I didn't expect that the dishes in the cafeteria today would be: spinach chicken breast, fried celery with shrimp, steamed sea bass, milk-flavored scrambled eggs, and kelp and tofu soup.

It's really strange that there is a time when she can eat all the dishes in the cafeteria, and they don't even seem to have much oil in them.

Yu Jiang and Ran Feng were even happier when they saw the dishes, and ordered a little of each without hesitation.

As soon as he put it in his mouth, Yu Jiang's happiness came to an abrupt end. The taste was not at the level of the cafeteria chef's cooking, but was more like that of a real chef.

I've been working in the kitchen for a long time and almost forgot whose territory this is. It turns out that the slug-nosed little follower is always haunting.

Yu Jiang, who knew the other person's character well, glanced at the camera in the cafeteria. Ke Xingzhe, who was sitting in the office staring at the surveillance screen like a voyeur, was so scared that his hair stood on end.

Sometimes it’s a scary thing when someone knows you too well. It seems that it’s hard to do little things or have little secrets in front of them.

Seeing Yu Jiang's mood change, Ran Feng asked with concern: "Why are you unhappy? Is the food not delicious?"

"It's delicious. It's so delicious. I should really thank the chef for his cooking skills."

She said so, but her back teeth were clattering so loudly that it was creepy just to hear. Ran Feng was so frightened that he didn't dare to ask further questions.

Ke Xingzhe has never been good at, nor has he ever needed to, deal with interpersonal relationships.

When he was in the group, he was an iron-faced and impartial character. The roles of leniency, mercy, and flattery were all reserved for Yu Jiang.

The same is true when he left the group to manage Yuyan. The clients and partners were all reserved by Yu Jiang before he left, and he only needs to do what he is good at.

He doesn't understand interpersonal relationships, but he knows everything about how to make money and how to manage things. He is also a workaholic, so he can handle any business.

Although he didn't know how to make Yu Jiang forgive him, Ke Xingzhe knew what to do to make her angry.

For example, if he went there now, Yu Jiang would definitely be angry. If he used his identity to make her work easier, she would definitely be angry.

But apart from this he didn't know what else he could do. All his assurances in front of Davis were fake. In reality he could only secretly watch her in the office like a quail.

In fact, what he asked for was not necessarily Yu Jiang's forgiveness, he just wanted a chance to explain himself, but she never gave him such an opportunity.

Yu Jiang was still eating angrily. She knew that there must be a pair of eyes watching her behind the surveillance camera.

When she thought of this, she didn't even want to eat, and she wished she could finish the recording and leave as soon as possible.

He had lost his appetite, but all the food was on his plate. It was a shameful waste, so Yu Jiang passed the food from his plate to Ran Feng while eating.

Ran Feng was also in the weight loss period. After finishing his own meal, he had to eat the leftovers. He hadn’t eaten so full for a long time.

After the meal, Yu Jiang calmed down and continued to work, no longer thinking about those unimportant people.

Seeing that they did not make any mistakes at work, the aunt decided to teach them some real skills.

The tableware for the imperial banquet was custom-made at the Xue Family Ceramic Kiln. All tableware is made of porcelain. The tables in the antique area and even each private room have fixed themed tableware.

The Xue family's magnetic kiln is not yet a formal industry. They have only researched some lost kiln firing techniques and are not capable of mass production, so it is still in the exploratory stage.

The first thing the aunt taught them was how to wash the tableware in the main building. Relatively speaking, the porcelain in the main building was not as valuable as those in the antique area.

But that is only relatively speaking. The tableware for the imperial banquet was ordered by Yu Jiang. In order to ensure the dining atmosphere, each piece was of the highest quality.

Although a long time has passed, Ke Xingzhe has continued her philosophy, and now it will only be more valuable than before, not worse.

The tableware used in the main building is a modern imitation of Ru kiln. The body and glaze are extremely similar. People who don’t understand might really think it is an antique.

The modern technique of imitating Ru kiln has become relatively mature. If it is produced by a master, the only difference is in the shape, and the quality of the porcelain can be said to be extremely similar.

The shape of the tableware is relatively simple, and it was produced by a research institute funded by the Xue family, so it looks very exquisite and precious.

Several generations of the Xue family have had a special fondness for traditional Chinese skills, and have funded research institutes that restore kiln firing techniques for some time.

But industries like these are purely handmade, and their funding focuses on subsidizing inheritors, so mass production is difficult.

Before teaching, the aunt first picked up an unbroken azure plate and said solemnly: "If you break a plate like this, it will cost four hundred."

Four hundred was just a friendly price for employee compensation. Yu Jiang and Ran Feng nodded seriously.

After all, their daily wage today was only 350 yuan, and if they broke one, they would only lose 50 yuan.

After the warning, the auntie began to really teach, "The first step is to soak and rinse with clean water, the second step is to use a bristle brush with detergent, the third step is to rinse and finally disinfect."

In order not to damage the glaze, the cleaner is also a specially formulated alkaline cleaner.

Before they started working, the aunt repeatedly emphasized the need to handle the work with care before she dared to let them start.

When choosing tableware, Yu Jiang never thought that his decision would cause so much trouble to the real grassroots employees.

I didn't even dare to squeeze the thin plate in my hands, for I was worried that if I was not careful, all my work would be in vain.

The last three hours of work were more tiring than what I did all afternoon.

It was not physical tiredness, but mental tension. Even Ran Feng, who was severely sleep deprived, did not feel sleepy.

The auntie smiled and comforted them, "Don't be afraid, I just made it and it took a lot of effort. As long as you are careful, it won't break."

The two of them were very careful with the whole process. They couldn't afford the risk of breaking one, and it took them three hours to clean a box.

Take them to the tableware disinfection room and place them neatly into the ultraviolet disinfection cabinet to start disinfection, just like opening a safe and counting gold bars.

It was not until the door closed that the two of them finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This is the end of their contact with these "expensive" tableware today. It is the job of the next shift's employees to take these treasures out of the sterilizer.

After each shift finished work, the company also provided a midnight snack. As usual, the guests gathered in the cafeteria to prepare a summary of the day's work.
