Chapter 32 The father of the second generation of factory digger

  Huating No. 1 Steel Plant.

 At six o'clock in the afternoon, it was already time to get off work, but there were still some workers busy at their jobs.

In the hot rolling workshop, old master Zhang Jinxi was standing on the huge hot rolling equipment, watching the hot steel ingot enter from one end and being rolled forward by two huge rollers. The steel ingot was immediately squeezed flat, and then, again After entering the second row and the third row of rollers, when they come out from the other end of the hot rolling equipment, they have turned into a standard steel plate with a width of three meters and a length of eight meters.

Looking at the color of the steel plate, Zhang Jinxi was very satisfied. The yield of hot rolling has a great relationship with the temperature of the steel plate. For a skilled master, he can know whether the heat is suitable just by looking at the color.

“Master Zhang, aren’t you getting off work yet?” At this moment, a voice came from beside him.

"Another furnace has just come out, and more than a dozen pieces have to be hot-rolled. I will get off work after finishing this furnace." After Zhang Jinxi finished speaking, he felt something was wrong. He turned around and saw that the person greeting him was not from their workshop. The worker is Wang Jun, a clerk in the laboratory department.

After the steel is manufactured, random inspections will be carried out, so the two of them are familiar with each other. Zhang Jinxi turned his head and glanced at Wang Jun: "Xiao Wang, what brought you here? Do you want to inspect this batch of steel?" "

“Yes, Master Zhang, after the inspection is over, how about we go out for a drink together?”

 Zhang Jinxi nodded.

 Half an hour later.

 Outside the factory, Zhao Ji Restaurant.

The workers at Huating No. 1 Steel Plant still earn a good income. Although there is a canteen that provides meals, they occasionally go out for a meal. Especially people who get off work late will come out for a drink when the food in the canteen is cold.

Zhao Ji Restaurant is quite large, with an area of ​​more than 200 square meters. In addition to a dozen tables outside, there are also three private rooms in a row next to the wall.

The private room was very simple, without even a door, so it was covered with a curtain. When Zhang Jinxi and Wang Jun walked in, the tables outside were already full of people, and the air was filled with the aroma of wine and food. .

"There is no room." Wang Jun frowned. Almost at the same time, the curtain of a private room over there was lifted up, and a human head was exposed inside. Their eyes met, and both sides were happy.

 “Brother Jun?”

 “Ming Gang?”

"Come on, come in and eat together! I originally invited a few people, but they didn't arrive because they had something to do. It's really too much!" Liu Minggang said hello.

“Xiao Wang, we are friends, let’s eat together, I...”

“Master, since you are Brother Jun’s friend, you are my friend. Come and eat together. If you don’t come, you are not giving me face! Boss, please bring two more bottles of Baiyunbian!”

Hearing the white clouds, Zhang Jinxi really couldn't walk. This wine is the best wine in Zhao Ji Restaurant. When you drink it, it tastes great.

 “Come on, Master Zhang, come on.” Under Wang Jun’s pull, Zhang Jinxi walked into the box. The table full of dishes made his index fingers move.

“Master Zhang, sit here.” Liu Minggang pulled Zhang Jinxi and sat on the upper seat. Zhang Jinxi wanted to refuse, but Liu Minggang pushed him up.

“Master Zhang, come on, let’s have a drink. Regardless of status, it depends on your age.” After saying that, he poured Bai Yunbian into the wine glass.

 The aroma of wine overflows.

Zhang Jinxi sniffed greedily, then couldn't help but pick it up and take a sip.

The mouth is mellow and full of aroma, not bad at all. I just feel warm in the whole stomach.

 “What a wine!” Zhang Jinxi picked up two bites of food and put them in his mouth.

“Master Zhang, looking at your age, you are over thirty, right?” Liu Minggang started to get closer.

"Ming Gang, did you make a mistake? Master Zhang is already over forty."

“Really? It doesn’t look like him at all. Master Zhang looks so young.”

 The two of them sang together and flattered Zhang Jinxi, making Zhang Jinxi feel elated.

“Master Zhang’s child is almost twenty, right?” Liu Minggang started to get to the point.

“Well, by the way, Master Zhang, how are the procedures for your child Zhang Feng to enter the factory?” Wang Jun asked.

"Alas." Speaking of this, Zhang Jinxi felt depressed for a while. He picked up the wine glass, poured the wine into his stomach, and then let out a long belch, and then said: "This stinky boy , I didn’t study hard since I was a child, and I stayed in two grades. If I had graduated two years earlier and caught up with the factory recruitment, I would have definitely joined the factory. Now, there is no shortage of people in the factory!"

In 1986, the steelmaking equipment imported from the island country was officially put into production. The steel plant needed a large number of workers. They were first selected from the second generation of the factory. Those second generation of the factory at that time were really lucky. They were recruited from the employee technical school in the factory. After graduation, he directly entered the factory and became a formal worker.

This prosperous scene lasted for a year or two, and then the steel plant was already saturated with personnel. If you want to let the second generation of the factory enter the factory, you can do it as temporary workers. Regular workers are already a carrot and a pit.

The treatment of temporary workers is very different from that of regular workers. Needless to say, the various benefits during holidays and festivals are not as good as those of temporary workers. Even the regular wages are quite different. Even though they are doing the same work, the results are lower than others. Who is willing?

Zhang Jinxi has been running for who knows how long about his son's matter and has not solved it. This has become a problem for him.

"I heard that there are a lot of things to do with early retirement and let your son take over the job." Liu Minggang said: "Master Zhang, if you want to pave the way for your children, then you have to retire, right?"

"Alas." Zhang Jinxi poured a glass of wine by himself, drank it into his stomach again, and then said: "Who says it's not the case? However, I am still young and can still contribute to the factory. If I retire now, Then I..."

Zhang Jinxi is a principled and ideal person. He wants to pave a way for his son, but he feels that doing so is too disrespectful to his conscience. Moreover, if he has no job in the future, he will have to die idle?

 Having worked for half a lifetime, you will never be idle.

"If that's the case, I have a way." Liu Minggang said: "Master Zhang, what are you willing to do in my factory? The salary is twice your current salary, and you still do the same job. The steel plates in my place are hot." The rolling equipment is the same as the one here. Once you go there, it’s easy to get started.”

 “What did you say?” Zhang Jinxi was stunned.

"Master Zhang, on behalf of Mingzhou Iron and Steel Plant, I sincerely invite you to be our technical backbone." Liu Minggang said, "In this way, the position you free up for Zhang Feng can be used for him to become a regular worker, and you can also make more money. , and doing your favorite job of steelmaking, it’s the best of both worlds.”

This is Qin Tao's idea for Liu Minggang, to poach the second-generation factory dads who have no job arrangements!
