Siheyuan: Start with a Truck Driver

Chapter 781 Huang San is in action

Zhao Fangde felt bad when he thought of these things, but he had no idea what to do.

He once had the idea of ​​falling out with Liu Haizhong, but in the steel rolling mill, as long as he quits a master, not only will no other master accept him as an apprentice, but he will also be ostracized by other workers. If he does that, maybe Not even a small worker.

So Zhao Fangde could only grit his teeth and swallow the bitter water into his stomach. At the same time, he secretly cursed Liu Haizhong in his heart. It would be better if this old guy was captured as soon as possible!

As long as he is captured, he will be free and can choose a new master.

As a master craftsman, Liu Haizhong didn’t have to work on weekdays, so he didn’t even break a sweat throughout the whole day. When it was time to get off work, Liu Haizhong didn’t leave the workshop immediately as usual, but lingered at the back. , waited until the last worker in the workshop left, then tied up the legs of his long johns, put the waste copper scraps into his long johns, and then walked slowly outside.

To say that Liu Haizhong is also doing an incredible job, his legs are now carrying seven or eight kilograms of weight, and there is no abnormality in the way he walks.

When he came out of the workshop, Liu Haizhong saw that there were not many workers on the road anymore, and he felt secretly happy. He knew that the security department only set up card checks at the gate when the workers just got off work. When there were fewer people, the security officers They all hid in the gate to rest.In the past, he had used this method to help others, and he succeeded every time, so Liu Haizhong was very confident this time.

Unexpectedly, after taking just two steps, he saw someone he didn't want to see in his bangs.

This person is Liu Hongfei from the welding workshop.

Liu Hongfei is a seventh-level welder. Because there are no eighth-level workers in the welding workshop, he is the largest master in the welding workshop.

The grudge between the two started when they were promoted to level [-] workers. Liu Haizhong and Liu Hongfei were both level [-] workers and took the exam to advance from level [-] to level [-] at the same time.

Although the two types of work are different, and the superiors have not stipulated the number of workers promoted to the seventh level each time, everyone knows that in a large factory with [-] people like the steel rolling mill, there are less than five sixth-level workers promoted to the seventh level every year. There are only two places for promotion from level [-] to level [-].

The promotion exam is not so much about showing one's strength to the examiner as it is about these workers competing against each other.Liu Haizhong knew his own strength. Although he had been a Level [-] worker for four or five years and could be considered an old Level [-] worker, he had slacked off a bit since he became a Level [-] worker. He would not do most of his tasks on weekdays. When it was left to the apprentice to complete, the blacksmith's skills, instead of improving, actually receded a lot.

But Liu Hongfei is different. Although he only became a welder the year before, he is obsessed with studying welding technology every day. His skills are deeply appreciated by those eighth-level veteran welders.Many people have predicted that Liu Hongfei will get a spot in this promotion to the seventh level.

Liu Haizhong knew that his own strength was insufficient, so he thought of using some off-market tricks. It happened that the deaf old lady in the courtyard had a good relationship with Director Yang and Deputy Director Li of the steel rolling mill.So Liu Haizhong gritted his teeth and bought a century-old wild ginseng and sent it to the deaf old lady's house.

The deaf old lady actually has a rich family, and she doesn't like the ginseng that Liu Haizhong spent a full 50 yuan on. However, she considered that Liu Haizhong is the second uncle of the courtyard, and if she can win over Liu Haizhong, it will be good for her in the future. It is of great help to manage the courtyard. After all, it is difficult to achieve full coverage of the courtyard with just one Yi Zhonghai.

So the deaf old lady agreed in one breath and went to the steel rolling mill in person the next day. Speaking of which, the reason why the deaf old lady was influential in the steel rolling mill was because she persuaded the people at the time of the public-private partnership. Lou Bancheng, the owner of the steel rolling mill, also actively proposed to her superiors to let Director Yang and Deputy Director Li manage the steel rolling mill. She can be said to be the benefactor of Director Yang and Deputy Director Li.

Factory Director Yang and Deputy Factory Director Li both felt a little embarrassed after learning about this matter. After all, worker promotion in these days is a very serious matter. Even if they are factory leaders, they cannot interfere at will. , and finally the deaf old lady slapped the table, and the two factory leaders agreed.

Although the promotion exam is serious, people still need to arrange it and score the workers and masters who participate in promotion. No matter what era, as long as there are people, some shady things can be done.

What's more, Director Yang and Deputy Director Li are the first and second leaders of the steel rolling mill. If they come forward together, who dares to stand in their way.

There was no suspense in the result. Liu Haizhong, who was supposed to be eliminated in the exam, eventually became the tenth worker to be promoted to level seven, while Liu Hongfei, who was supposed to get the last indicator, was unexpectedly eliminated.

The workers' eyes were sharp. Although there was no way to change the result, they pointed fingers at the matter behind their backs. Liu Hongfei also knew that he was eliminated because of Liu Haizhong.

Although during the promotion exam in the second year, Liu Hongfei became a seventh-level worker with his impeccable skills, this incident became a thorn in his heart. From then on, he and Liu Haizhong became life and death enemies. .Liu Hongfei has the kind of character that hates evil as much as hatred. Every time he sees Liu Haizhong, he will get mad at him, and today is no exception.

Seeing Liu Haizhong walking out of the workshop, he immediately walked over, with a cold face and a hint of joking at the corner of his mouth: "Hey, isn't this Liu Haizhong? Why are you getting off work so late today? I must be working overtime in the workshop, and why are you working overtime in the workshop?" It’s really rare, I didn’t expect you, Liu Haizhong, to work overtime one day.”

These sarcastic words reached Liu Haizhong's ears, and he was immediately filled with anger. If it had been in the past, he would have rushed up to fight Liu Hongfei. After all, the two of them had fought many times before, and Liu Haizhong relied on He is relatively powerful and can beat Liu Hongfei to a pulp every time.

But today he still has something on him. If there is a fight, Liu Hongfei, a boy who is relatively short, will hug the thigh in the bangs every time. In this way, all the things hidden in the trouser legs will be shaken out. .

Liu Haizhong has a hot temper and is not a person who can tolerate others, but now he can only grit his teeth and squeeze out a smile: "It's Master Liu, what's wrong? I just got off work!"

Liu Hongfei was anxious to come back today. He had no intention of arguing with Liu Haizhong, but when he saw Liu Haizhong giving in, he suddenly became curious.

Liu Hongfei walked up to stop Liu Haizhong, circled around Liu Haizhong, and said with a smile: "Liu Haizhong, did you take the wrong medicine?"

"No, Lao Liu, you may have misunderstood. There was no deep hatred between the two of us. What happened in the past was just a misunderstanding. There is no need to act like a worried person when we meet." Liu Haizhong licked his face and smiled.

"Misunderstanding, huh, Liu Haizhong, you said it too lightly. You took my place as a seventh-level worker. Have you forgotten?" When Liu Hongfei heard this, he became very angry and shouted at Liu Haizhong. road.

Seeing the strange looks from the people around him, Liu Haizhong quickly reminded Liu Hongfei: "Hongfei, don't be excited, please listen to my explanation."

"I'll listen to your excuse." Liu Hongfei also became interested and wanted to see how his bangs confuse right and wrong.Liu Haizhong had no reason. It was just to prevent Liu Hongfei from having an attack. In Liu Hongfei's eyes, he could only bite the bullet and said: "Liu Hongfei, didn't you succeed in being promoted to level seven worker in the second year? A grade-level worker only gets five yuan more per month than a sixth-grade worker, and it only costs 60 yuan a year. It’s hard for you, a grown man, to care about these six yuan!"

Liu Haizhong's words almost made Liu Hongfei laugh out loud: "Liu Haizhong, are you pretending to be confused or pretending to be confused? You are also a senior master. Don't you know that the promotion examination for eighth-level workers in the third year has been reformed? ?”

As soon as these words came out, Liu Haizhong was immediately speechless.

In the past, the examination for Level [-] workers was held inside the steel rolling mill, and the ministries and commissions only sent relevant personnel to supervise. Because Level [-] workers were the highest level of workers, every factory wanted to have a few more Level [-] workers in its factory, so in During the exam, both the equipment preparation and the examiner were biased towards the factory workers.Don't underestimate the slightest bias. You must know that the eighth-level worker examination requires very high precision. Any bias can affect the final exam result.

In particular, the ministry also placed the eighth-level worker examination within the ministry. Most of the examiners who presided over the examination were from other factories. This would have a negative impact on the masters of the steel rolling mill. Since then, After the reform of the promotion examination, none of the seventh-level workers in the steel rolling mill have been promoted to eighth-level workers, which shows that its impact is still quite large.

During the several years that Liu Hongfei was serving, he signed up to take the exam every year, but each time he fell just a little short and failed to pass the promotion exam. Seeing that he was getting older and older, his hope of being promoted to the eighth-level worker was almost gone. He could not pass the exam. Angry?

After Liu Haizhong understood this, he felt a little guilty. He shrank his neck and said, "Can you blame me? It's not that you are unlucky."

Hearing this, Liu Hongfei's eyes widened suddenly. He had long known that Liu Haizhong was shameless, but he didn't expect that he could be so shameless.

He took a deep breath: "Liu Haizhong, do you want to fight with me today?!"

When Liu Haizhong heard this, his expression changed drastically. He quickly waved his hands and said, "Master Liu, I'm just kidding."

As he spoke, Liu Haizhong saw Liu Hongfei's face turning red little by little, and felt that something was not good. He rolled his eyes and quickly covered his stomach and said: "Master Liu, I'm sorry, I seem to have eaten something bad at noon. I can’t chat with you anymore.”

Although Liu Hongfei wanted to beat Liu Haizhong violently, he also had a bottom line. Seeing Liu Haizhong like this, he could only take a deep breath, suppress his anger in his heart, turn around and leave.

Seeing this scene, Liu Haizhong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, he said with disdain in his heart: "Stupid guy, if the labor and management didn't have something to do today, I would definitely punish you. But just wait for me. When I get off work tomorrow, I will guard you at the intersection!"

Cursing Liu Hongfei in the center of his bangs, he pretended to be nonchalant and walked slowly towards the entrance of the steel rolling mill.

Along the way, I greeted my co-workers from time to time, just like after get off work.

The door was getting closer and closer. Although Liu Haizhong didn't behave abnormally, he couldn't help but feel excited. As long as he walked out of the door, he could get three to forty yuan. This time he got more copper scraps, and maybe even more money. I can make two appetizers!
Thinking of the food to go with the wine, Liu Haizhong was hesitant. He bought some peanuts and fried them at home!He'd better go to the tavern and ask the pretty proprietress to help him get some!
The landlady's place is more expensive, but she's pretty.
Just when Liu Hai was thinking about it, a figure came from the side: "Stop!"

A chill ran from the soles of his feet in his bangs to the back of his head. He shivered all over and turned his head, only to see a young man wearing a security officer's uniform walking towards him.

After Liu Haizhong recognized the other party's appearance, he breathed out: "Yes, it's Comrade Huang San. You haven't gotten off work yet!"

"What Huang San, you called me by my name, Huangshan!" Huang San said with a straight face.His original name was Huangshan, but the pronunciations of Shan and San were similar, and Huangshan was the third eldest child in the family, so people called him Huang San.

Liu Haizhong also realized that Huang San's tone was a bit wrong, but he felt a little disapproving of it.

The reason is very simple. Huang San was also an apprentice in the steel rolling mill before, and he was the kind who could not afford to pay and had no master. He was bullied by others in the workshop. Liu Haizhong usually liked to boss Huang San around. There was no other reason. , just because this guy’s name is easy to call.

At that time, Huang San was respectful to the master and allowed him to do whatever he wanted. Even when he went to the hut, he would wait outside.

After thinking about it, Liu Haizhong raised his head, glared at Huang San and said: "Huang San, have you grown up? When you forgot in the workshop, what did you say? You want to recognize me as your master, and why?" You said you would honor me for the rest of your life, so what, now that you have left the workshop, you have forgotten all these things?"

It was a good thing that Liu Haizhong didn't mention this matter, but when he mentioned it, Huang San was immediately filled with anger.

At first, because his family was poor and could not afford to pay the apprenticeship fee, he was often bullied by others in the workshop. Not only could he not learn skills, but he was also as tired as a dead dog every day, so Huang San wanted to find a master through his own efforts. .

He fell in love with Liu Haizhong for no other reason than that he felt that Liu Haizhong looked more down-to-earth and not the kind of person who only had money in his eyes.

In order to become Liu Haizhong's apprentice, Huang San put in a lot of effort. The first thing he did when he came to the workshop every morning was to help Liu Haizhong clean the work station, and then he had to bring tea and water. Liu Haizhong didn't even eat after eating. There is no need to suck the dishes, Huang San is always the first to rush up, take his aluminum lunch box, and help him clean it.

Including buying briquettes for Liu Haizhong's family, it was Huang San who drove a flatbed truck from the briquettes factory outside the city for more than 30 miles to help Liu Haizhong.

Huang San thought he had accomplished everything he could, and he thought he was more filial to Liu Haizhong than Liu Haizhong's apprentice, so he made a request to Liu Haizhong to become his disciple.

But Liu Haizhong refused without hesitation.
