Red Star Rolling Mill.
When it was almost time to get off work, the factory's broadcast sounded.
" Mr. Xu Weijun, the original Level Five Welder, has been promoted to Level Six Welder after studying hard and pursuing progress. He has passed the Level Assessment..."
"Everyone should learn from Comrade Xu Weijun, work hard, study hard, and contribute to the country's construction.”
"I hereby announce this as an encouragement!"
……
The factory's publicity department announced that Xu Weijun had been promoted to a level six welder and even praised him.
For a moment, the entire Red Star Rolling Mill was in an uproar.
"What is it? Xu Weijun was promoted to a level six welder? How was this possible? How many years has he been a welder?"
"About eight years."
"Eight years? Xu Weijun had a bright future ahead of him for being promoted to a Level 6 Welder at such a young age!”
"If you are promoted to a level six welder, your salary will also increase, and Xu Weijun's life will be better.”
……
Many people were shocked when they heard the news.
A level six welder could not be promoted easily. It required superb welding skills.
Moreover, he had to pass the corresponding work-level assessment before he could be promoted to a level-six welder.
Many old welders who had worked in the rolling mill for most of their lives could not reach this height in their entire lives.
Xu Weijun was promoted to a level six welder at the age of 25. In most people's eyes, his future was boundless.
He would definitely be promoted to an engineer in the future.
This was the consensus of many people.
"Wei Jun, congratulations! Congratulations on your promotion to Level 6 Welder!"
"Xiao Xu is young and has a promising future. Congratulations!”
"We have to set up two tables to celebrate.”
“……”
As soon as the broadcast in the factory stopped, Xu Weijun's colleagues also congratulated him.
"Thank you! Thank you!"
"I was lucky!"
Xu Weijun replied politely.
As for setting up two tables to celebrate, it was just a small matter.
After he packed up the tools, he put them in the toolbox.
In the Red Star Rolling Mill, the bell rang for the end of work.
Xu Weijun took his lunch box and walked out of the gate of the rolling mill.
On both sides of the street were old buildings.
On the wall, there were slogans with the characteristics of the times.
Looking at everything in front of him, Xu Weijun suddenly felt as if a lifetime had passed.
In the blink of an eye, it had been eight years since he came to this world.
Xu Weijun was not wearing it, but his soul had transmigrated into a person with the same name in this era.
When he first transmigrated, Xu Weijun thought that there would be a system or something.
However, he had waited for eight years, but the system had not come.
Therefore, Xu Weijun gradually stopped thinking about it.
It was now the early sixties, and many people were living on a tight budget.
Without the system, Xu Weijun had to rely on his own hard work if he wanted to live a good life.
His father was a hero, and his mother was a worker at a steel mill.
After his father left, his mother also died of a sudden illness.
Therefore, not long after Xu Weijun transmigrated, he took over his mother's job at the rolling mill and became a welding apprentice.
When he first became a welding apprentice, Xu Weijun's monthly salary was only 18.50 yuan.
Although he looked like a small family, he was the only one at home.
Therefore, his days were passable and he could eat meat a few times a month.
However, Xu Weijun was not satisfied with this. He was also a person with aspirations.
In this era, doing business was speculation.
Xu Weijun did not want to be shot.
However, he was a welder in the rolling mill. If he wanted to live a better life, the only way was to raise his grade.
Only by raising his work level could he get a higher income.
Therefore, ever since he entered the rolling mill and became a welding apprentice, Xu Weijun had been working hard to improve and study the welding skills.
Finally, at the age of 25, he became the youngest Level 6 Welder in the Red Star Rolling Mill.
The monthly salary of a level-five welder was fifty-seven yuan and fifty cents.
Now, Xu Weijun had been promoted to a level-six welder.
Starting from next month, he would be able to earn 67 yuan and 50 cents a month.
In addition, if he was promoted to a level six welder, he would have to be a workshop leader and receive corresponding subsidies.
Starting from next month, his monthly income would be 70 yuan.
Therefore, people were in high spirits when it came to happy events.
After coming out of the rolling mill, Xu Weijun went to buy a pound of pork. He planned to have a few drinks at home tonight, and then call his good friends after work tomorrow to set up two tables in the restaurant.
After buying the meat, they walked home. In about ten minutes, they arrived at a courtyard house.
This courtyard house was a large three-door house with more than a dozen households living inside.
Xu Weijun was one of them. He had two houses here.
Oh right, there were also three uncles in charge of this courtyard house.
Yi Zhonghai lived in the middle courtyard, Liu Haizhong lived in the backyard, and Third Uncle lived in the front courtyard.
Xu Weijun also lived in the backyard and was neighbors with Second Uncle Liu Haizhong.
Other than that, there was also the Deaf Old Lady and Xu Damao in the backyard.
That's right, the world that Xu Weijun was in now was the world of Love Courtyard.
"Wei Jun, congratulations. I heard that you've been promoted to a level-six welder? This is a joyous occasion for you. Shouldn't you celebrate it properly?”
As soon as he walked into the front yard, Xu Weijun bumped into the third uncle, Yan Bugui.
After Xu Weijun got off work, he went to the market to buy pork.
Therefore, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong, who had returned to the courtyard house first, had already spread the news that Xu Weijun had been promoted to a level six welder throughout the courtyard house.
Now, when Yan Bugui saw Xu Weijun return with a pound of pork in his hand, he naturally had to scheme.
Because they had been neighbors for so many years, Yan Bugui knew that Xu Weijun would not mistreat his people.
When he was still a welding apprentice, he ate meat every few days.
Later on, as Xu Weijun's work level rose and his income increased, he ate meat more frequently.
In the entire courtyard house, there were more than ten families, but none of them lived as arrogantly as Xu Weijun.
If Xu Weijun really celebrated in the courtyard and set up a few tables, they could also improve their lives.
However, Yan Bugui had miscalculated.
Xu Weijun had never thought of setting up a table in the courtyard to celebrate.
When he first transmigrated, his mother had not passed away yet, so she arranged a blind date for him.
And the blind date was Qin Huiru.
Everyone said that it was great to have Qin Huiru at first blood. Therefore, when the matchmaker introduced Qin Huiru to him, Xu Weijun also wanted to get Qin Huiru's first blood.
However, the good times did not last long. Not long after the blind date, his mother died of a sudden illness, and the Xu family was penniless.
As for Qin Huairu, she immediately got close to Jia Dongxu, the first-class fitter in the courtyard house.
Although Jia Dongxu was not as tall and handsome as Xu Weijun, Jia Dongxu was a first-class fitter at that time. He had a monthly salary of 27.5 yuan and a mother at home.
Xu Weijun's family was poor. Even if he took over his mother's work in the rolling mill, he could only start as an apprentice with a monthly salary of 18.5 yuan.
Therefore, Qin Huairu naturally felt that marrying Jia Dongxu was better than marrying Xu Weijun.
After Qin Huairu married Jia Dongxu, the mother and son of the Jia family mocked Xu Weijun for being a toad lusting after swan meat.
Then, both parties started arguing.
At this time, the neighbors all said that love was free, and Xu Weijun should not be unreasonable.
Anyway, no matter what the truth was, it was Xu Weijun's fault.
It was at the rolling mill that Jia Dongxu often spoke ill of him.
And the scheming Yan Bugui had advised Xu Weijun to be magnanimous.
From then on, Xu Weijun stopped interacting with his neighbors in the courtyard house.
Now, when Yan Bugui saw that he had advanced to the sixth grade, he wanted to scheme against him and make him lose money.
Bah!
No way!
