Chapter 540 The Conscience Cafeteria

It was already noon when the opening ceremony of Jiangcheng Shenlan University ended. Tang Xiaochuan and Guan Jingwen, accompanied by Principal Cen and a cadre of school leaders, visited the first canteen of the school that had just been put into use a few days ago.

The students came to eat in groups of three or four. It has just entered October at this time, and the temperature is still relatively high at noon. Stove, it's cool inside.

At each window, students lined up to buy food with sterilized chopsticks and plates, and everyone held a meal card in their hand.

Seeing Tang Xiaochuan and his group approaching, several of the students in line greeted, "Hello, Captain!"

Tang Xiaochuan nodded with a smile and raised his hand in response, and someone greeted Guan Jingwen and Principal Cen.

A student finished packing his meal, turned around with a plate in his hand, and was about to look for a table. Tang Xiaochuan raised his hand and asked, "This classmate!"

"Oh, hello, captain!" The student immediately responded with a smile.

Tang Xiaochuan looked at your meal on his plate, a stewed pork with potatoes, a stir-fried chicken offal with peppers, a stir-fried water spinach, a stir-fried beans, and a bowl of soup, and asked, "Are these enough to fill you up?"

"Okay, I don't eat much!"

Tang Xiaochuan asked again: "What do you think of the quality of the food in the cafeteria? I mean the taste and portion!"

The student said with a smile: "I think it tastes very good, it's not worse than restaurants and hotels outside, it's full of color, fragrance, and the portion is very large. Look at the stewed pork with potatoes, so many braised pork, and this Stir-fry green peppers with chicken giblets, you can see chicken giblets, and there are few green peppers!"

"How much is this one?"

"Six dollars in total!"

Tang Xiaochuan said again: "What do you think of this price?"

"With this amount, the price is too close to the people. It is an absolute canteen of conscience. If labor is included, I guess the school will lose money!"

After dismissing the student, Tang Xiaochuan walked to the window and asked the aunt who was ordering food: "Hello, auntie, how are these meals sold, and how much is a piece?"

The middle-aged woman who was cooking didn't know Tang Xiaochuan, but seeing that the principal was following behind, she thought that this young man might not be an ordinary person, so she quickly said, "One five servings of meat dishes, one serving of vegetarian dishes, and one serving of rice. But you can add more rice, eat as much as you can, and the soup is free!"

Tang Xiaochuan asked, "What do you sell for breakfast?"

"There are rice porridge, millet porridge, buns, steamed buns, flower rolls, fried dough sticks, hot dry noodles, soup noodles, rice noodles, thick and thin rice noodles, soy milk, white fungus, eight-treasure porridge, etc.!"

Afterwards, Tang Xiaochuan carefully asked about the prices of various breakfasts. The prices were relatively close to the people. It seemed that even if the school cafeteria did not lose money, it probably did not make money, and there were many types of breakfast and lunch and dinner dishes.

Tang Xiaochuan turned his head and asked Cen Kejian: "Principal Cen, will the school cafeteria lose money if it continues to operate like this?"

"Let's let the director of logistics discuss this issue!"

The director of the logistics department hurried to the front and said: "Mr. Tang, it is absolutely impossible to make money based on the quality and quantity of the food in our cafeteria, as well as the fixed price, because all the ingredients are purchased fresh, even the rice. Never buy old rice, it is all new rice this year. Meat, fish, other meat dishes and vegetables are all fresh ingredients, and we do not buy frozen ones in the cold storage. Our aim is to try not to lose too much money, but in any case, the school has This part must be subsidized, otherwise the current food quality and price cannot be guaranteed!"

Tang Xiaochuan nodded. Young people nowadays are full of energy. They have a lot of activities, consume a lot of food, and eat a lot. If the portion is not enough, they will definitely not be full.

"I heard from the students that the taste of the food is not bad. Do any faculty members eat in the cafeteria?"

Principal Cen said with a smile: "Of course, single faculty and staff eat in the cafeteria. Some faculty and staff have only two or three people in their families. They often buy food in the cafeteria to save trouble and don't want to cook! The school also often offers some special delicacies. For example, braised prawns in oil, fish maw, Wuchang fish, lotus root clips, etc., but they are all limited. The cost of these dishes is too high. Special delicacies such as crayfish, Wuchang fish, fish maw, head dish, braised soft-shelled turtle, etc. have been launched!"

Tang Xiaochuan felt that it would be a good point to make the school cafeteria a distinctive one and gain fame. He asked the director of logistics, "Can people outside the school eat in our school cafeteria?"

"Generally, it is not allowed. Our school uses its own dining card. People outside the school don't have a dining card if they want to eat in. The faculty and students can recharge as much as they want. There is no need to go to the cafeteria to recharge the money, just use it directly. Alipay or WeChat can be transferred to the dining card, and if students have family and friends coming, they can use the student’s dining card to eat in the cafeteria!"

Tang Xiaochuan asked: "Apart from the student cafeteria, are there any higher-grade restaurants in the school? For example, on weekends and holidays, students have dinner together, teachers have dinner together, etc. The grade of the cafeteria is too low!"

"Yes, there are two restaurants on campus. Those who don't use their dining cards can pay in cash or by mobile phone. The grade is higher than that of the cafeteria. One is on the second floor of the cafeteria, and the other is in the school hostel. The decoration, waiters and back kitchen are all excellent. Follow the specifications of mid-range restaurants outside!"

Tang Xiaochuan and Guan Jingwen visited the second floor again. The restaurant on the second floor is indeed much more upscale. There are round tables, square tables, and large and small private rooms in the lobby. The air conditioner is fully turned on. He asked the waiter to take a menu and read it. , a plate of fried vegetables is 12 yuan, a plate of braised pork is 48 yuan, fish-flavored shredded pork is 38 yuan, beef pot is 128 yuan, and a three catties of braised crayfish is 138 yuan...

Later, a group of people visited the school's guest house. The guest rooms in the guest house are divided into VIP rooms and double rooms. The customers who can live here are mainly people who come to study, parents and relatives of students, and leaders who come to the school for meetings. The price is also relatively high. Offer, double room 68 a day, VIP room 88 a day.

After visiting the restaurant in the hostel, Tang Xiaochuan found that the restaurant was of a higher standard than the restaurant on the second floor of the student cafeteria, and it was already at the star level.

Even so, when Tang Xiaochuan and his team visited, they found that the business here was pretty good, and the seats were full, and the waiters and chefs in the back kitchen were busy all the time.

Tang Xiaochuan was very puzzled, and asked the director of logistics: "The business of this restaurant is so good. Is the taste very good? Now that the semester has passed, the military training is over, and the parents of the students have almost left, right?"

Principal Cen took over the topic and explained: "Our school has set up four in-service undergraduate classes since the beginning of the school year, and there are also directional trainees. These people are all in-service personnel who come here to study. There are more than 300 people, not all of them eat here, there are also some people from off-campus enterprises and units eating here, such as nearby village committees, streets, and leaders of some companies. The environment here is good and clean! Of course , the taste is still very good, otherwise they would not come here to eat!"

At this time, the director of logistics said: "Mr. Tang, Ms. Guan, and the principal, I think it's time for lunch now. We can't let Mr. Tang and Ms. Guan go back on an empty stomach. Why don't we just eat here!"

Principal Cen turned his head to look at Tang Xiaochuan: "Mr. Tang, what do you think?"

"Okay, I invite you all for this meal! Director Cao, tell the manager of the restaurant to find a larger private room and serve the food according to the highest standard!"

The accompanying school leaders all said that Tang Xiaochuan could not treat guests, but Tang Xiaochuan insisted that the school is not a profit-making unit, and it is still necessary to save expenses as much as possible in official entertainment.

After lunch, I visited the school hospital again. The doctors, nurses, outpatient department, inpatient department and all kinds of instruments and equipment in the hospital are all complete, and some people are already hospitalized in the inpatient department.

Afterwards, Tang Xiaochuan and Guan Jingwen bid farewell to Principal Cen and others, and they took a special car to Nanhu Villa.

In the car, Tang Xiaochuan asked, "How do you think Deep Blue University is doing now?"

Guan Jingwen said: "It may be that the school has just been established and lacks some cultural atmosphere, but the construction has been done well, and the area is large enough. Now it is full of trees, but there are still no birdsong and no leaves under the trees. Everything is too new, without the precipitation of time and the influence of cultural atmosphere, scientific research and academic atmosphere!"

Tang Xiaochuan nodded, "Yes, other things can be solved with money, which cannot be solved with money, but as long as the class starts, the environment and atmosphere will change a lot in a few years, and if you come back at that time, you will definitely feel different of!"

The next day, Guan Jingwen went to Jinding Garden Community to visit her nephew, and Tang Xiaochuan went to Lantu Automobile Manufacturing Company to inspect the work and production.

When inspecting the work of the administrative department, he and the accompanying company executives had just walked out of the tea room when they heard two female employees in white shirts and short skirts discussing.

"I said, this Geng Zhiming is really miserable. Just before the National Day, he was kicked by his girlfriend. He was found to have kidney failure after the National Day. It is said that he has been hospitalized now, but he needs a kidney transplant. If he can find The matching kidney source is okay, if you can’t find it, it’s probably over. Even if you find a kidney source, the medical expenses will be a lot of money. I heard that his family is in a remote mountain village and he just graduated. How can he have money for medical treatment? "

Another female employee was about to speak, when she suddenly found a group of people standing outside, she immediately recognized Tang Xiaochuan, and said quickly, "Hi, boss!"

The female employee who just spoke was also taken aback, and quickly turned around to say hello: "Hi, boss!"

Tang Xiaochuan took a look at them, "Hello!"

The two female employees hurried back to their workstations with their coffee cups in their hands.

Tang Xiaochuan inspected the office building, sat down in the chairman's office, and asked Tang Hanmin: "Who did the female employee in the tea room say had kidney failure?"

Tang Hanmin said: "A fresh graduate who joined the job at the end of August has only been in the job for more than a month and is still in the probationary period. I also heard the report from the following people this morning. This employee is called Geng Zhiming. Zhou Zhou broke up with his girlfriend and was in a bad mood. After the National Day holiday, I went back to my hometown to rest for a few days. I didn’t know that on October 2, I felt very uncomfortable. I went to the county hospital for an examination and found out that I had kidney failure. I don't know if the result is accurate, and then sent to the city hospital, where the diagnosis was confirmed, and now it has been transferred to Tongji!"

Tang Xiaochuan asked: "Does the company have a plan to help?"

"Because he is still in the probationary period and has not officially joined the job. According to regulations, the company has no obligation in this regard, but in the spirit of humanitarianism, he should show some kind of consolation money or something!"
