Siheyuan: He Yuzhu’s Sunshine Farm

Chapter 26 The majesty of the eighth-level fitter

The next morning was Monday. Today I had to go to work, and He Yuzhu also had to go to school. He Yuzhu got up early in the morning and prepared He Yuzhu's lunch box, which included two stick bones and some vegetarian dishes.

In addition to selling rice, He Yuyu's 33 also has a large steamer that can steam hundreds of lunch boxes at a time.

Speaking of lunch boxes, everyone has a ranking of the best lunch boxes, and the author has also brought a lunch box.

For me, my favorite lunch box that I never tire of eating is tomatoes and scrambled eggs with white rice.

Half of the lunch box is filled with white rice, and the other half is filled with scrambled eggs with tomatoes. When the rice is cooked, the white rice and the soup with scrambled tomatoes and eggs are mixed together. Stir them with a spoon. It is so enjoyable to mix and eat.

This is also the only rice I never throw away. Every time my mother brings me tomatoes and scrambled eggs, I can definitely finish the white rice.

The second-ranked bento is stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts and white rice.

For dishes like garlic sprouts, it’s not easy to get the flavor the first time you stir-fry them. After they’re cooked, the garlic sprouts become a little softer and all the flavor is absorbed into them. Not to mention how delicious they are.And the combination of green fried garlic sprouts and white rice is very attractive from a visual perspective.

However, garlic sprouts are a relatively expensive vegetable. During my many years of cooking, my family rarely cooked this kind of dish. When I occasionally cooked it, I always deliberately ate less at night and kept it in my lunch box.

The third-ranked dish is a bit more ordinary, it is shredded potatoes with white rice. Shredded potatoes are one of the dishes I have served most often. They are cheap, delicious and easy to make.

If my mother can put two fried wing roots on top of the shredded potatoes, it would be a delicacy on earth, and I would be very happy at noon.

The lunch boxes at that time were all aluminum lunch boxes, small and rectangular, with a raised red panda gnawing bamboo on the lunch box lid.

On the first day of school, my mother bought me a red schoolbag and an aluminum lunch box. The red schoolbag broke after one year of use, but the small aluminum lunch box accompanied me through six years of elementary school and three years of primary school. Junior high school, and part of high school.

At that time, at least half of the children in the class had to bring lunch boxes. Large and small aluminum lunch boxes were packed in small cloth bags sewn by their mothers. In the morning, they entered the classroom, took out the lunch boxes, and placed them in the iron cage on the class podium. After the morning reading, the two students in charge of the class that day carried the iron cage containing the lunch box to the kitchen and put it into the large steamer. Remember the location of your class, otherwise the students in each class will be confused with hundreds of people at noon. I sprinted to carry the food basket for my class, but I couldn't remember the location. It would be embarrassing if I couldn't find the food basket. Dozens of people in the class were starving and waiting for food.

The large steamer used to make glutinous rice is extremely tall and large. For those of us who were in elementary school, it was simply a huge machine full of majesty.

The students in the lower grades are not tall enough, so they need to deliver the rice basket to the kitchen earlier so that they can choose a better location. Otherwise, they will have to step on the ladder to lift the heavy rice when it is ready and steaming. Cages are really dangerous things.

If it were now, I think many parents would be worried and object to letting their children carry lunch boxes into the kitchen. But in those days, every school did this, and everyone brought lunch boxes, so this was just a matter of course. It's not a big deal, and when we were young, we never thought it was dangerous. We just thought it was something we should do, just like studying hard and listening to lectures in class, so there was no need to question it at all.

As for me, I was the Chinese class representative and monitor at that time. In addition to watching my classmates carry the rice baskets to the kitchen and put them into the steamer every day, I also had another task, which was to help the Chinese teacher make rice.

There is a bag of rice in the Chinese teacher's office. Every morning I go to her office to take out her lunch box, grab two handfuls of rice, wash it in the water room, and then fill it with water. The water is placed one level higher than the rice. The height of a finger, and then place the lunch box on top of the large steamer.

At noon, I took the rag to insulate the lunch box from the big steamer and sent it to the office. The Chinese teacher's rice was ready.

I never felt that the Chinese teacher was annoying. Instead, I regarded it as a task with a sense of mission. I felt that I was trusted for the first time in my life, and the person who trusted me was still the Chinese teacher. This made me feel happy every morning when I was making rice. I am particularly cheerful and have a kind of complacency that is different from other students.

Later, I entered the broadcasting room, and I did morning exercises every morning, so I was the only student in the school who couldn't do radio gymnastics, and I was also the host of our school's Red Scarf Radio Station.

Every day we promote good people and good deeds, such and such a classmate pushes a cart for the elderly. Such good thoughts and morals are worthy of our learning. Also, such and such classmate picked up money and handed it to the teacher. Such good thoughts and morals are worthy of our learning.

That era was really simple. Boys and girls were embarrassed to be close together. It seemed that being close to each other was a form of shyness, haha!

Enough to say, let’s continue telling the story of this book.

After He Yuzhu prepared a lunch box for He Yuyu, He Yuzhu rode to school. He Yuzhu also looked at the time and walked out of the courtyard alone.

After He Yuzhu left first, Yi Zhonghai came out slowly. Today Yi Zhonghai is going to give He Yuzhu a blow and give He Yuzhu a good beating.

You must know that Yi Zhonghai has a very high status in the Hongxing Steel Rolling Plant. He is an eighth-level fitter, which is an incredible technical job. Even the factory director will give him a bit of a thumbs-down when he sees him.
The eight-grade wage system has been implemented since the 50s.The salary promotion system at that time was still relatively formal.Some large state-owned factories have eight-level workers in almost every section. They are the backbone of the section and play an important role in solving process problems, so they are very respected by people.

There was a wage adjustment in the 70s.It was not until 79 that normal wage adjustments resumed.

Therefore, from the late 60s and throughout the 70s, wages could only be increased by one level.That is to say, if you are an apprentice during this period, when the apprenticeship expires, you will be classified as a first-level worker, and at most, you will be transferred to a second-level worker.When you transfer from the army, you will be a fourth-level worker, and you will be transferred to a fifth-level worker at most.

When you graduate from a technical school, you will be classified as a second-level worker, and at most you will be transferred to a third-level worker.Generally, it is impossible for an older worker with more than ten years of service to be classified as an eighth-level worker.

So there are no eighth-level workers in the factory?Yes, there were a very small number of old workers. The old workers who were classified as seventh-level workers before the early 60s were transferred to eighth-level workers in the 70s.

These people are few in number, and there are almost no young or middle-aged workers.Fortunately, at that time, prices were not high and very stable.People participated in the construction wholeheartedly and were very satisfied to be able to work in factories as workers.

Some types of work do not have level eight.Some types of work with low technical content can reach the top level at level five, the top level at level six, and the top level at level seven.The top level eight jobs have high technical content. It is not easy for workers to be promoted to level eight. They are rare, and there are only a few in medium and large enterprises.

I honestly don’t know very well how the fitter exam is taken, but for blacksmiths, I know very well how to take the exam. I heard this from a seventh-level blacksmith master. In the past, when they tested the practical operations of the sixth-level worker, the exam content was: Examine the manual operation of the steam hammer.

An egg is placed on the chopping board of the steam hammer and is painted with red paint.During operation, the steam hammer needs to be raised and lowered, and the hammer must be stained with red paint without breaking the egg!

This is just a level six worker!How difficult is it to be a seventh-level or eighth-level worker?Some old workers have worked in the factory all their lives, but they have not been able to pass the eighth-level worker examination!
You can imagine how powerful Yi Zhonghai, an eighth-level worker, must be. Yi Zhonghai has no less than a hundred apprentices and grandchildren in the Red Star Steel Rolling Plant. Many of the section leaders, squad leaders, and even workshop directors are his apprentices or People with better relationships,
When Yi Zhonghai arrived at his work station, someone had already made tea on the table, and the work station had been cleaned early. Those young apprentices who had just entered were trying their best to fawn over Yi Zhonghai, because As long as Yi Zhonghai nods, they will pass the exam smoothly.

You must know that the exam is very difficult.

And if you get graded early, you can not only get rid of your apprentice status, but your salary will also increase by one level. Who do you think would not try to curry favor with Yi Zhonghai?

"Xiao Liu.!"

I saw a fat apprentice worker approaching. Yi Zhonghai asked with a smile on his face: "How long have you been in the factory?"

"Master Yi, I have been in the factory for a year." Xiao Liu replied with a smile.

"Then why are you still an apprentice? You failed the last exam?" Yi Zhonghai asked again.

Xiao Liu showed a bitter look on his face at this time: "Master Yi, this test is too difficult. I have worked very hard, and the angle is just a little bit wrong. The master who took the test just brushed me off.

If I were asked to cut another right angle this year, I'd probably end up with another bad dish. "

The basic work of a fitter is to use a saw. The apprenticeship test is to saw a ninety-degree right angle. This thing is not simple.

"Haha!" At this time, Yi Zhonghai showed a smile and laughed loudly: "You just don't have to work. Of course, it is understandable that the right angle of the saw is slightly off.

Who is the master who took your exam? "

"It's Master Zhao." Xiao Liu said quickly.

"Oh, it's Xiao Zhao." Yi Zhonghai nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, the exam is about to take place this time. When you are about to take the exam, I will tell you. It's not easy for you either. You should It’s time to get rid of the apprenticeship.”

"Really, Master Yi, thank you so much." Xiao Liu became excited and happy.

But at this time, Yi Zhonghai smiled faintly and said, "Xiao Liu, I helped you, so do you want to help me again?"

"Master Yi, is there something wrong?" Xiao Liu hurriedly walked to Yi Zhonghai and said, "Master Yi, if you have something to ask, don't worry, I will definitely do it if I can do it. If I can't, I will find a way to help you do it. "

After Xiao Liu finished speaking, Yi Zhonghai smiled slightly: "Xiao Liu, you are very good."

　Thanks for the recommendation, thanks for collecting!
