The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were waiting for the good news at home and were ready to buy meat to make dumplings, but the news they received was a basin of cold water poured on them, and their enthusiasm was instantly gone.
"Damn little beast, so many people have failed, why should he pass?"
"There is no justice, there is no justice."
Jia Zhang did not dare to talk about her son, so she had no choice but to target Yang Xiaotao.
The originally dull eyes of Jia Dongxu on the side also began to shine, as if he had found a reason for failure.
On the other hand, Qin Huairu was already numb. Although Jia Dongxu had sworn in when the assessment was first discussed, Qin Huairu had already been mentally prepared. After all, Jia Dongxu's performance at home on weekdays did not look like a hard-working person in comparison.
.
Xu Damao's family.
Looking at Xu Damao who had just drunk and fallen asleep, Lou Xiaoe thought about what her mother had warned her two days ago, that a man should not be spoiled and should be pressured to let him focus on his family.
And the best way is to have a child.
Lou Xiao'e touched her belly, looked at Xu Damao, and sighed secretly.
I heard from people in the yard today that the workers in the steel rolling mill have been assessed again.
I also heard that neither the Jia family nor the He family in the middle courtyard had passed. Instead, Yang Xiaotao, who was usually disliked by others, had passed. Now he is a third-level fitter. She doesn't know what the future will bring, but now
It seems that he can live comfortably in this courtyard.
Thinking of the past scene and looking at the long face lying on the bed, Lou Xiao'e suddenly felt a sense of sadness in her heart.
"Life is like a mirror. If you smile at it, it will smile back."
Thinking of a book she had read, Lou Xiao'e smiled energetically, lay next to Xu Damao, and fell asleep slowly.
"Aha~~~"
Yang Xiaotao closed the book, stretched and blew out the lamp.
"I'm going to Aunt Wang's house in two days. I need to arrange the lights."
Rubbing his eyes and smelling the burnt smell in the air, Yang Xiaotao made up his mind.
The room was dark, and soon after, steady breathing was heard.
Day and night rotate, and the sky in Sijiu City welcomes the rising sun again, which also heralds the beginning of a new day.
A happy atmosphere spread throughout Sijiu City and even the entire land of China. Groups of students held small flags and shouted hymns. People were full of energy, and everyone was filled with the joy of being the masters of their own country.
Today's steel rolling mill workers' faces are brighter than usual.
Because today is the day when wages are paid, many people are thinking in their hearts that when wages are paid, they can buy some meat and vegetables and go home to celebrate the National Day together.
Those who passed the test yesterday experienced three times the happiness.
Because, you can send more money today.
In this happy atmosphere, Yang Xiaotao got up early and glanced at the exchange column out of habit.
Today is the day of refreshment.
Looking inside the four frames, one's eyes widened immediately.
"What is this?"
I saw that the first three redemption boxes contained spicy strips, canned fish and beef jerky. They were all edible, but the last one turned out to be a talisman, which looked a bit like the yellow talisman in the zombie movie of the previous life.
As soon as I saw the introduction, I immediately understood what it was.
Soul Reaper Talisman
Capture other people's souls and control them for yourself.
Lasts for one hour!
50 credits required.
There is also a countdown following, with less than 10 minutes left at this time.
Simple, mysterious, and most importantly, the credits are very expensive!
Now he only has 5 credits for all his wealth, what can he do in ten minutes?
Not surprisingly, this talisman has no fate with him.
After cleaning up, Yang Xiaotao walked towards the steel rolling mill.
Tomorrow is the National Day, and the steel rolling mill has also prepared celebration activities.
The whole factory will go to Shili Long Street tomorrow to watch the military parade and celebrate the National Day.
Of course, it's impossible to get to the front, but being able to participate from the back also makes everyone in the steel rolling mill excited.
So this afternoon, each factory area will organize and rehearse in advance to save you from being in a hurry when the time comes.
When Yang Xiaotao came to the factory, the scene was the same as before when wages were paid. The long queue showed people's desire.
Go to the back of the line and wait together.
Just when the workers were about to receive their wages, the leaders of the steel rolling mill were holding a serious meeting under the chairmanship of the secretary.
Sitting at the front was the secretary of the steel rolling mill, Liu Huaimin, and next to him was the factory director Yang Youning.
Below are the three deputy factory directors, Xu Yuanshan, Chen Gong and Li Huaide.
Outside, there was a circle of people sitting, including the director of the qualified workshop, the director of the department, the director of the logistics department, and the people from the security department.
Dozens of people filled the entire conference room.
"I received a notice from my superiors yesterday and faced with the current situation..."
The speaker was a capable middle-aged man, energetic and with a righteous look on his face.
This man is Liu Huaimin, the secretary of the steel rolling mill.
He rarely comes to the steel rolling mill because he is also responsible for other things and is not as familiar with the operation of the steel rolling mill as Director Yang, so he does not do the work of a layman guiding an expert.
But in this era, the party commands the gun. As the secretary of the steel rolling mill, if something happens, it will be a big deal.
At this time, everyone became nervous after hearing Secretary Liu's words.
After all, they are all people who have come out of the chaotic era and know the severity of the current situation.
Speaking of which, a lot of things happened this year.
The most important thing is to withdraw troops from North Korea. That unprecedented battle made the Chinese people straighten their backs and made the national consciousness rise again.
It also lets the countries around the world know that the Eastern dragon has begun to roar, and anyone who wants to continue to oppress this nation must be prepared to be defeated.
Some people here know about these things, and some people don't, but they can also feel that the situation in the country is not optimistic.
Secretary Liu simply stated the contents of the meeting and then began to arrange tasks.
"Our superiors asked us to launch a people's war..."
"Our steel rolling mill, as a key domestic construction unit, shoulders the important task of building the motherland. Naturally, we must respond to the call to defend the motherland and China."
"So, after the unanimous decision of the party committee and factory leaders, Section Chief Zhao will be led by the security department as the backbone, and elite personnel from the factory will be transferred to form a steel rolling mill guard team."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The personnel size is set as a battalion, which is usually responsible for patrolling and protecting people's property. Its jurisdiction includes workshops and workers' living areas."
Before everyone could digest it, Director Yang on the side also spoke up after hearing this, "This matter must be taken seriously, and no one can be careless."
"Everyone has experienced war, and we all know the cunningness of the enemy, especially those hidden in our hearts, which are vicious daggers that are more destructive than on the battlefield."
"So, we must be vigilant, unite the people, find these knives and get rid of them."
After Director Yang finished speaking, Secretary Liu nodded and moved on to the next topic.
"As for domestic economic construction, you need to be strong yourself. It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others."
"The current situation is severe and the test for our steel rolling mill is even more severe. You sitting here must have this heart and shoulder this heavy burden."
"The superiors have already said hello. After the holiday, our factory will have to take on more tasks, and we must maintain quality and quantity to meet the needs of the construction of the motherland, and we cannot delay."
"At this time, everything must give way to production."
"I propose that we should establish new trends in the workshop, establish excellence, improve the enthusiasm of workers, and give full play to the spirit of workers who are not afraid of hardships and difficulties, so as to complete tasks faster and better."
After Secretary Liu finished speaking, Xu Yuanshan on the side was moved and spoke.
"Talk about being advanced. This assessment of the third workshop is very good."
With that said, Xu Yuanshan told what happened in the third workshop, and Wang Guodong behind him also had a bright face.
Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning looked at each other. They were dozing off, so the pillows were delivered.
Wang Guodong also stood up and explained everything in the workshop in detail.
"So, this little comrade is really amazing."
"To lead a disciple and pass the test 100%, this ability is not small."
Liu Huaimin smiled, especially when he heard that Yang Xiaotao was a high school student and had been studying after taking over his father's position, which made him feel good about him.
In his position, there are some things that he sees more. If a person is uneducated and does not know how to study, what is the difference between him and a salted fish?
Aren't they studying when they are marching and fighting?
"This advanced person can be stood up and set an example. We can also let other workshops learn from it. This kind of person can lead a whole group."
Factory Director Yang was also sure, and several workshop directors also knew about the situation, and began to think about whether there were such talents in their own workshops.
Li Huaide, who was in charge of logistics, also expressed his opinion at this time, "In order for the workers in the workshop to eat well, I suggest improving the quality of food. It is best to allow the workers to eat meat every day and have the strength to complete their tasks."
"I think this is okay. After contacting the meat factory, we can also organize manpower to go to the countryside to purchase items."
Director Yang nodded, and Liu Huaimin thought about it for a while. Although he knew that the countryside was also very poor, he had no other choice, so he nodded in agreement.
A gleam flashed in Li Huaide's eyes.
Everyone continued to hold meetings, solve problems one by one, and then quickly implement them.
In the factory area, Yang Xiaotao followed the crowd and finally walked outside the window to give his job number.
The financial staff took a look and saw that everyone was familiar with it, and quickly sorted out a stack of money checks.
"Comrade Yang Xiaotao, a third-level fitter, the salary is 42.5 yuan!"
"We receive 28 kilograms of food stamps every month, 0.7 kilograms each of salt and oil, 1 kilogram of meat, and half a kilogram of sugar."
The accountant placed a stack of money and tickets at the window. Yang Xiaotao counted them as he counted them. If there were no questions, he put them in his pocket.
A first-level worker behind him looked at him. Although he was mentally prepared, he still felt hot after seeing so much money.
Yang Xiaotao did not stay, but walked into the third workshop and came to Wang Fa and others.
Several people were eager. After all, everyone was unhappy after their wages were paid, and those who were paid more were even happier.
Just as a few people were talking, the loudspeaker suddenly sounded, and then the sound came, and everyone hurriedly listened.
"Comrade workers of the steel rolling mill, please pay attention to contribute to the construction of the motherland and ensure the safety in the steel rolling mill. From now on, the steel rolling mill will form a factory protection team. All young men in the steel rolling mill can sign up and can enter after passing the review.
"
"In addition, a reward is announced. Comrade Yang Xiaotao, the fitter of the third workshop, works hard, unites and camaraderie to help workers improve their skills. In this assessment, the third workshop's assessment results ranked first."
"After the factory leadership decided, Yang Xiaotao was awarded the title of Advanced Worker. He will continue to work hard and create greater glory. At the same time, he encouraged outstanding personnel in each workshop to learn from Comrade Yang Xiaotao, not to hide anything, not to be selfish, to use their initiative, and to contribute to the construction of the steel rolling mill.
."
The broadcast finished quickly, and after a moment of silence, the workshop became heated again.
The people in the third workshop were even more happy. They were praised by the factory leaders, especially Wang Fa and others, who surrounded Yang Xiaotao and congratulated them constantly.
Although there is only a reputation for advancement and no substantial reward, with this honor, the road ahead will definitely become wider and wider.
Wang Guodong also came over and looked at Yang Xiaotao with great relief.
"Xiao Tao, this is a reward given to you by the factory. Your monthly salary will be increased by 5 yuan."
"I hope you will continue to work hard and bring out more outstanding fitters."
Yang Xiaotao took the 5 yuan, not expecting such a good thing, and immediately promised, "Don't worry, director, I will never be vague as long as necessary."
"Okay, don't think that Factory Director Xu and I think too much of you, just perform well and I'll wait for you to achieve results."
Wang Guodong encouraged him again and left immediately.
Then, the news that Yang Xiaotao was rewarded 5 yuan quickly spread throughout the factory, and those who were watching quickly made up their minds and prepared to learn from Yang Xiaotao.
