Chapter 370: The faces of the neighbors after learning that Wang Hongtao was promoted
"Brother Damao, I'm not sure how to raise the administrative level, but we can think of a way to raise the projectionist's level first. If this is raised, it will be convenient to upgrade the administrative level."
"You are a level 6 projectionist? I thought that with your skills, you wouldn't be the lowest level, right?"
Speaking of this, we have to mention the work grade system at that time.
At that time, almost all jobs were graded, and workers were paid according to their job grades. Workers of the same level in different places might have different wages, but the gap was not large, and the general framework was there.
The division of work levels can be roughly divided into two systems, service system and production system.
Sha Zhu and Xu Damao are from the same system and are service workers, divided into grades 1-10. The larger the number of the work grade, the lower the grade. The same goes for Wang Hongtao's driver and Wang Hongbin's security guard.
Xu Damao was the lowest level 6 projectionist, while Sha Zhu was a level 8 chef. Their monthly salary was 32.5 yuan, plus a yuan squad leader allowance, which added up to the yuan he talked about every day.
The first uncle's eighth-level fitter, the second uncle's seventh-level blacksmith, and the riveters and electricians and other people with the "I" character in their names belong to the production system, which is divided into levels 1-8, and the higher the level, the better.
Simply put, the wages of production workers at that time were based on one system, with level one being the lowest; and the wages of service staff were based on another system, with level one being the highest.
……
After hearing Wang Hongtao's doubts, Xu Damao was also distressed: "Not bad at all! I signed up for the projectionist level assessment two years ago, but the factory refused to approve it. I was level 6 when I joined the company, and I'm still level 6 now. I'm so worried!"
"Okay, I'll ask you when I have time." Wang Hongtao replied casually.
"Oh, thank you so much, brother. No matter what the result is, I owe you a favor!"
"Say all this! I tell you so much because I treat you as a brother. Why should I make such a distinction?" Wang Hongtao put his arm around Xu Damao's shoulder.
Xu Damao scratched his head: "Yes, I am a stranger to you, brother."
……
While we were chatting, we arrived at Nanluoguxiang.
"Brother, when are you free to come to my house for a meal? You've been taking a lot of trouble with my family's meals these past few days, and now that Ezi's family is back, I have to treat you back a few times!"
"Don't refuse so quickly. I'm not being polite. Let's just say that everyone is having a hard time these days, and I can't be the only one taking advantage of you, right?" Xu Damao said honestly.
Did you take advantage of me? Wang Hongtao's mouth twitched.
"Okay, since Brother Damao is so polite, I won't be pretentious. Let's see the arrangements. I'll call you when I'm free."
"I just got back from a long business trip, and there are a lot of things to deal with."
"Ah."
……
"Is Xiao Wang back?"
"Why call me Xiao Wang? Call me Section Chief Wang!"
"Good afternoon, Chief Wang."
"I'm Zhang Dacheng from the courtyard next door, working in the forging workshop of the steel rolling mill. You can just call me Dachengzi. I hope Chief Wang will take care of me in the future!"
...
Before entering the courtyard, Wang Hongtao was overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of the neighbors in the next courtyard. In just a few dozen meters, countless people filled Wang Hongtao's head, but after thinking carefully, it seemed as if he didn't recognize anyone.
But what is certain is that when you have power, the neighbors will suddenly become enthusiastic and will compete to show themselves in front of you.
This was even more evident after he entered the courtyard. Needless to say, the third uncle at the door was very caring and told him that Wang Hongtao was very busy with work after becoming a leader, and that if there was any housework at home, he only needed to give Yu Li a call and she would be there at his beck and call. He never mentioned any kickbacks, and only said that it was an honor for the courtyard to have a big leader after great difficulty, and that as the uncle in charge of the courtyard, he was also proud of it.
When he arrived at the Intermediate Courtyard, the old man also praised Wang Hongtao for his promising future, saying that he was a role model for the younger generation in the courtyard and brought honor to Courtyard No. 95. He also asked him to walk around more often when he had nothing to do.
Even Jia Zhang came over with a few pairs of cloth shoes as if she had taken some crazy medicine, and asked Wang Hongtao if he needed any shoes to wear. She said that she had no other skills, but the cloth shoes she made were pretty good, so he could come to her if he needed any shoes.
Wang Hongtao was not polite and took away two pairs of shoes immediately. Jia Zhang smiled happily and turned around and left happily.
Only Sha Zhu's house still had its door closed, and he was drinking alone in the house.
When she got home, Qin Jingru immediately came to greet her with a smile. After the period of Wang Hongtao's business trip, the residents in the yard had become accustomed to Qin Jingru staying at the Wang family.
Not to mention during the day, even if Qin Jingru stayed at night, no one dared to say anything.
After Liu Haizhong's last mistake, who in the hospital doesn't know about Wang Hongtao's relationship with Director Li and the Security Department? Who dares to offend Wang Hongtao?
"Hehe, Brother Tao, you're back?"
"What do you want to eat tonight? I'll make it for you. In the afternoon, Sister Xiao'e brought over a lot of dishes, saying that you must have been tired after being out for so long, so she asked me to prepare a delicious meal for you!"
"You are wrong. It has been hard working outside for the past six months, but I have eaten a lot of delicious food!" Wang Hongtao said, pinching Qin Jingru's nose.
That's because he has been working in the Air Force Training Department for the past six months, and he has the same meals as the pilots. How could it be bad?
"By the way, Jingru, what have you been eating during the days I was away from home? How was your food?" Wang Hongtao asked with concern.
"The food is delicious! Director Li came to our factory right after you left and gave me your food and salary. He said it was your order and told me to eat as much as I want."
"By the way, I'll give you the grain book and the remaining money." Qin Jingru handed over the grain book and the remaining money.
Wang Hongtao took it, put it away, and handed Qin Jingru another dollar: "This money is for your pocket money. Buy whatever you want. Ask me for more when you're done."
The reason why Wang Hongtao took back the grain book and money from Qin Jingru was not because he was reluctant to pay it back.
It was mainly due to his New Age perspective. He believed that if you truly loved someone, it did not mean you indulged her or trusted her 100%, but rather you helped her avoid all possible crises and mistakes.
Men who try to please their girlfriends with unconditional trust will basically not have a good ending, just like some fools who have male best friends or male agents.
There are two lines in Jeff Chang’s song “Over the Top” that he sang particularly well.
……
Qin Jingru took it, put it away carefully, and said thank you sweetly.
She is a carefree person and doesn't think too much. She just thinks that since Brother Tao gave it to her, she will accept it.
In the middle courtyard, He Yushui came back from outside with light steps.
As soon as she entered the alley, she heard the neighbors talking about Wang Hongtao, saying that not only did he return safely, but he was also promoted to level 18 cadre and is now a section chief in the steel rolling mill. He Yushui was so excited after hearing this that she ran into the backyard without even going home.
"Brother Tao?"
He Yushui was also filled with excitement when she saw the person she had been thinking about day and night coming back. Tears welled up in her eyes and were about to fall.
Because of the lack of security, He Yushui regarded Wang Hongtao as his support and emotional sustenance early on.
Wang Hongtao disappeared for such a long time this time, and she was no less worried than Qin Jingru. She was worried that something might happen to Wang Hongtao, and then no one would love her again.
"Good boy, don't cry, Rain, I'm back, right?"
Wang Hongtao hugged He Yushui and comforted her quietly regardless of Qin Jingru's presence. He knew that although the girl in front of him seemed to be indifferent, she was actually more sensitive than anyone else, but she just kept it to herself.
Moreover, if Qin Jingru lives in his own home in the future, she will know about his women sooner or later, at least the ones in the yard will let her know.
“Ouch…”
"I thought you were like my dad, you left and never came back, you didn't want me anymore..."
“Ouch…”
“I’m so scared these days…”
....
“Sister Yushui, you…” Qin Jingru stared at all this in a daze.
