Restarting life in Siheyuan

Chapter 122 Lunch at the Steel Rolling Mill

Zhu Xuefeng didn't dare to laugh. Factory elder Yang wanted to fight one another. This was not good, as it would delay subsequent production.

"Director, to be honest, it's not impossible. Think about it, if the bicycle modification is too slow, it's meaningless, if it's too fast, it's unsafe. The most important thing is that it will be eliminated."

"Instead of wasting energy, it is better to make the motorcycle stronger, and then we can design bigger ones later, such as big motorcycles, cars, and trucks. You can't always build small engines."

"I think Xiao Zhu is right. Don't turn around and make bicycles. Just follow what he said. In the future, we will also build cars and change bicycles."

Secretary Chen also looks down upon the modification of bicycles. There are many bicycles, but the constraints are also great. People are reluctant to modify them. All agencies will definitely prefer better scooters.

Factory Director Yang also woke up. Yes, the more you build, the better it will be. Why is he always struggling with bicycle modifications, and his eyelids are a bit shallow.

"What happens next is still unclear. The two leaders must not tell anyone."

Zhu Xuefeng was so quick to speak that he couldn't control himself and expressed his thoughts, which he regretted endlessly.

Secretary Chen made a serious statement.

"We suffered a big loss a few years ago. This matter has never been raised. We won't mention a word about it. It will cause trouble for everyone!"

"Here, Lao Yang, take one, and Xiao Zhu will have one too. I saw you and Lao Zhang smoked it together, don't tell me you can't."

Secretary Chen threw a cigarette to Director Yang, and also handed one to Zhu Xuefeng. He had no choice but to smoke with him after being told the truth.

Zhu Xuefeng quickly made the two leaders angry, then picked it up, took a look, and lit it, Huazi, the leader's cigarette is good.

Secretary Chen suggested.

"Call Lao Xia over this afternoon to discuss it. This matter shouldn't be difficult. They can't even complete their own tasks. Some things are completely negotiable."

"Well, I'll look for him soon. They were a big help. Without them, Xiao Zhu's idea would still be just a drawing."

After setting the phased plan, the two of them felt much more relaxed. Director Yang looked at Secretary Chen with a smile.

"I heard that his car is very easy to ride. Lao Chen, how about we go down and give it a try?"

The three of them came downstairs together. Zhu Xuefeng pushed the car out of the carport and set it on fire. He gave a simple demonstration and said that the accelerator and brake were enough.

"It's so easy to get on the car? I saw the side-wheel tricycle at the police station. Every time you get on the car, you have to kick it hard. Is this little thing so easy?"

"Two leaders, when the electric start is ready, you can press the button and start the car. No need to kick."

"Hahaha, that's a good feeling, I can't wait."

Director Yang laughed loudly. He didn't know whether he was laughing at Zhu Xuefeng's bragging or whether he was actually in a good mood.

Director Yang tried it out for two times with great interest. He was a little overjoyed and said happily to Secretary Chen.

"Old Chen, come and try it too, it's very simple!"

Not long after, the scene that happened in the motorcycle factory was also played out in the steel rolling mill. The director of the factory was riding something unknown and actually took the secretary around the factory area.

"It's such a good thing. It's simpler than riding a bicycle. You don't even have to change gears. You can just accelerate when you put in the gas. It's really hassle-free."

"Old Chen, I think it's not too late. I'll hold a meeting in the afternoon to discuss whether it's feasible and the cost..."

...I returned to the workshop and said hello to the master, received a few more parts, and continued to process them according to the drawings. It was really easy for me to be a first-level worker, but I can't just change my job to a second-level worker on the first day of work. I have to be slow. Take your time and keep improving.

When there was work to do, time passed very quickly. Zhu Xuefeng did not hesitate to work hard. In more than an hour after returning home, he actually produced seven or eight quality products without any waste.

"Xiao Zhu, let's go, let's go, dinner is ready, go to the cafeteria to get food."

The co-workers started shouting at each other, and Master Lu also reminded Zhu Xuefeng that it was time to start dinner. This guy went out for a trip, and when he came back, it was as if he was rushing for time. He kept competing with the parts. This was really efficient. He had checked everything himself and everything was qualified. .

Thanks to Director Sun, I also found a treasure. There are many fitters taking over in the factory, and there must be many who have been taught by my family in advance, but there is absolutely no one who failed to meet the standards on the first morning and completed so much.

Master Niu and some workers came over to say hello cordially. Everyone was very busy during working hours, so they came over during the break to drink water, but Zhu Xuefeng was called away.

"Boy, if you have anything to do, just tell us. Your master, Lao Lu, doesn't care about you, but we do, haha."

A few of Lao Zhu's friends, who must have a good relationship with Master Lu, started joking in front of Master Lu.

"Thank you uncles, uncles, and uncles. Master is very kind to me. I will trouble you if anything happens. Thank you."

"Okay, let's go. I'm here, Lao Lu. Anyone who finds trouble with him should get out."

Lao Lu had this confidence, and the workshop was most likely to become an eighth-level existence. He didn't care about this little coworker at all, and rushed away with a smile.

"Let's go, Xiao Zhu, if your master bullies you, we will help you settle the score with him, hahaha."

The workers in this workshop are really cheerful. Now is the era of big pots. Everyone’s income is based on their level. There are no conflicts of interest. A few advanced workers basically rotate in a small area, and ordinary people can’t count on it, so the atmosphere is very good.

Zhu Xuefeng followed everyone to the cafeteria carrying lunch boxes. This was really his first time to eat here. He had been here several times with Director Zhang. Every time he mentioned eating in a small cafeteria, Zhu Xuefeng had something to do. Today, it can only be a big cafeteria.

There are many seats in the canteen, but there are more people. Many people carry their meals outside after finishing their meals. A few people stand and squat in a circle, chatting and eating.

The conditions of the canteen of the steel rolling mill are pretty good. There is a row of dishwashing faucets outside the canteen, and there are simple tables and chairs inside. However, there are a few windows and the queue is a bit long. There is also free vegetable soup outside.

After waiting in line for almost 10 minutes, we finally arrived. Master Lu looked at the dishes and ordered a meat dish for [-] cents. He also asked for multi-grain rice for [-] taels. No wonder Master Lu’s bowl was bigger than the young man’s. I was so emotional. It's really edible, but the wages are high and the food supply is high.

The cafeteria is also very user-friendly. You don't have to serve food in portions. You can take as much or as little as you like. The chef who prepares the food doesn't have the legendary spoon shaking, but actually puts a spoonful into Master Lu's rice bowl.

From a distance, Shazhu saw Zhu Xuefeng in the kitchen and said hello. Zhu Xuefeng responded. He knew that Zhu Xuefeng was naughty and Chef He would have stopped cooking before he came over.

It was Zhu Xuefeng's turn, and he didn't ask for meat. Silly Zhu said last night that the meat supply in the cafeteria couldn't keep up, and today he had to kill a wild boar. In order to mourn the wild boar that he sent to the slaughterhouse, Zhu Xuefeng decided to eat fast for a few days. , I asked for a green vegetable, which was also full.

"Why are they all vegetarian? What we fitters do is strenuous work. If we don't have enough food and money, we won't be able to do this work well."

Master Lu turned around and saw his apprentice's bowl of green oil. He thought that Zhu Xuefeng wanted to save some money because of poor family conditions, so he found two pieces of meat from his bowl and put them into Zhu Xuefeng's bowl.

Zhu Xuefeng quickly refused. "Master, I have a bad stomach these days and I don't dare to eat greasy food. You can do it yourself."

Master Lu took it back doubtfully, and then glanced at Zhu Xuefeng suspiciously. He was full of energy and didn't seem to have any gastrointestinal discomfort. This kid must be thin-skinned.

"Xue Feng, your internship period, plus the various subsidies, should be 20 yuan a month, and your father's pension is 17 yuan, which is not a lot for a month. Eat a meat dish in the cafeteria It’s suitable, it’s cheap and you don’t need to pay for it.”

"Take good care of your health, otherwise, this fitter won't be able to persist. This is a strenuous job. If your hands shake, it will be scrapped. Listen to the master. This knife sharpener is as good as the woodcutter. You must eat better next time. Money is not something that can be saved, the right way is to get classified as a full-time employee as soon as possible and get a salary increase."
