Siheyuan: Steel Mill Engineer

Chapter 56 Miniature
"you……"

Yan Bugui was very angry and thought to himself, "That's it. Who is willing to help you get this position?"

"Okay, everyone, let's go." Yi Zhonghai said and stood up.

In the past, he would help the Jia family find solutions, after all, he planned to provide for Jia Dongxu in his old age.

Now that he has this outstanding nephew, Jia Dongxu is no longer an outsider.

In Yi Zhonghai's opinion, although Yang Zhenyu has no blood relationship with him, he is related to his wife by blood.

This kind of family affection is always stronger than the informal master-disciple relationship. The most important thing is that my eldest nephew is really filial. He gives me some fruits and other things from time to time. Although it is not much, it is much better than others.

In the past few months, Yi Zhonghai has seen things more and more clearly. To the Jia family, they are just normal neighbors. He will help them to the best of his ability, but nothing else will be discussed.

All of this is for my eldest nephew.

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai left first, the others had no desire to stay and packed up their things to go home.

...............

Only the Jia family and Liu Haizhong's family were filled with indignation.

"Boss, come here." Yan Bugui called Yan Jiecheng over.

After saying that, Liu Haizhong also went home. He now wanted to know which link had gone wrong, as there was clearly a quota.

"Second Uncle, you know the situation of my family. Life is really hard. Can you think of a solution?" Jia Zhang said, pulling Liu Haizhong.

Liu Haizhong is different from the Jia family. He used his own quota to send his son to the factory.

"It's no use telling me. I can't be the boss of the factory. If I could be the boss, then how could my second son not be able to get in?" Liu Haizhong said impatiently.

"Dad, what's the matter?" Yan Jiecheng's face was full of excitement.

However, there has been no movement until now, which is very strange.

"Second uncle, please think of a solution. After all, you are a level six worker in the factory, and you will soon be a level seven worker." Jia Zhang said.

"Solution? What solution can I have? My second son hasn't even entered the factory, and you want me to find a solution?" Liu Haizhong was also annoyed at this time. It was agreed that there was only one quota for level six workers, so why couldn't his own son enter the factory?

"When you enter the factory, work hard and learn the skills. I will talk to the uncle later to see if you can be transferred to be his apprentice. You just need to learn from him then. I don't care about your future. I just hope you can be rated as level three after you get married. That way your life will be easier. Don't embarrass Zhenyu, otherwise, what will happen to your brother and sister's jobs in the future?" Yan Bugui said earnestly.

"Boss, our eldest son finally has a job. We can add some dishes next month." The third aunt said to Yan Bugui excitedly.

"Well, the boss has a job. It is indeed worth celebrating." Yan Bugui nodded and said.

"Dad, I know I will work hard after entering the factory. But, Dad, now that I can officially work, can you give me a little more salary every month?" Yan Jiecheng said, rubbing his hands.

"Well, now that you have a formal job, I should give you more. So, I'll give you two dollars, two dollars and fifty cents. But you can't treat your younger brothers and sisters unfairly. Do you hear me?" Yan Bugui said after thinking for a while.

"Hey!" Yan Jiecheng laughed.

"Hey, I thought you were reluctant to give more." Yan Jiecheng said with a smile.

"Our family has a hard life. In the past, you and Jie Kuang could only earn a few dollars a month by doing odd jobs. However, we have so many people to support at home, and we have to spend every penny carefully, otherwise we would starve. But now it's different. You have a formal job, and you will have a second child in the future. We have hope for the future." Yan Bugui glared at Yan Jiefang and said.

"I, your father, don't have much ability, but I am contented to see you brothers and sisters all working in the factory." Yan Bugui said with emotion.

If conditions allow, no family would be willing to eat pickles and steamed bread every day. It's just because of the circumstances.

"Dad, don't worry, I will work hard." Yan Jiecheng said very firmly.

"Okay, go back and rest." Yan Bugui waved his hand and said.

Yan Jiecheng was deeply touched by today's conversation. He used to think that his father was too stingy, unwilling to give him anything to eat and always calculating.

But now think about it, it doesn’t seem easy. Didn’t you see that I generously gave two dollars and fifty cents today?

………………

What was different from the Yan family was that sounds of ghosts howling and wolves howling could be heard from the backyard.

Obviously, Liu Haizhong was beating the child.

The neighbors in the compound have become accustomed to this.

"The people in this compound are really interesting." Zhou Qianqian said while washing her feet while sitting on the bed.

"Yeah, everyone in this compound is talented, all kinds of people, and they just do mischief all day long." Yang Zhenyu said with a smile.

"Indeed, that guy from the Jia family is just like what you said. He wants to get his hands on any good thing he can get. And, it seems to me that he wants to take advantage of it for free." Zhou Qianqian said.

"That's right. Their family is different from the Yan family. Teacher Yan is a calculating person, but he can often stand up and speak for his neighbors. His family's conditions are there, and it's unrealistic to ask him to give money to help. This is the same as most families in the compound."

"But the Jia family is different. They always want to get things for free. Moreover, when you are in trouble, let alone help you and say good things, it's good enough if they don't bite you. So, your attitude towards them must be different." Yang Zhenyu said.

"Yeah, that's true. But I just think it's fun and don't want to have too much interaction with them." Zhou Qianqian nodded.

"That's right. I just don't want to have too much interaction with them. I asked for the factory quota this time just for the sake of our neighbor. Otherwise, I wouldn't bother to arrange it. Now, everyone's life is hard. Who are you going to help and who not?" Yang Zhenyu said with a smile.

Yang Zhenyu has already seen clearly the essence of this courtyard house. There is still a gap between it and what is shown in the TV series. Some things in the TV series are too scripted, while the reality is the same. Everyone has their own characteristics.

This compound is just a microcosm of the times, and it is like this everywhere in the country.

In more serious cases, when two villages fight for water, they use weapons and cannons, and that is a real fight.
