Chapter 44: Carry out the Qin Family special poverty alleviation initiative
The task of washing and cutting was still done by the six of them, while the parents were responsible for making the syrup.
The local villagers would teach them during the process, but they would only demonstrate once, and they needed to remember the techniques and content themselves.
The task of washing and cutting was quite simple; just wash with clean water, then place in the date pressing machine to cut slits in the dates so that the syrup could permeate during cooking.
The difficult part was making the syrup, as any deviation in ingredients or heat control could affect the taste of the candied dates.
The director team never missed a chance to stir things up. After announcing the task, they said:
"Today’s task isn’t about speed or quantity, but the candied dates cooked at the end will be judged by five villagers chosen by the production team. After tasting, they will score each family’s product, and the scores will determine each family’s dinner tonight.
So, the syrup-making step is crucial, and parents need to pay extra attention. Now, you can start."
Sun Chaohua couldn’t help but want to curse when he heard this messy task. He had never seen such a stingy production team.
Want people to work but won’t let them have a full meal; capitalists are indeed heartless!
He spoke up, "I suggest the production team also receive punishment; whoever’s candied dates taste the worst today should be rewarded to the directors as dinner, how about it?"
Han Liheng immediately raised his hand, "I agree. We can’t always be the ones not having enough to eat while the production team freeloads every day!"
