"What's your name?"
The workshop director left happily. Xu Weijun also started to communicate with his first disciple.
But then again, he still didn't know the name of this young man!
"Guo Yuanchao."
the young man said honestly.
His uncle had already told him that Master Xu was the youngest Level 6 Welder in the entire rolling mill with a population of 10,000. He had a bright future.
He could learn a lot of skills from him as a welder and an apprentice.
"How old are you?"
Xu Weijun asked again.
Master, I'm eighteen this year."
Guo Yuanchao said.
"I also entered the rolling mill at the age of 18 as a welding apprentice. Learn well from me and don't play tricks. In the future, you can also have a craft to support your family.”
Although Guo Yuanchao looked honest, Xu Weijun had to beat him up in advance to establish the dignity of a master.
If Guo Yuanchao really respected his teacher and learned well from him in the future, he would definitely teach him wholeheartedly.
If he tried to cheat, he could only ask the workshop director to find another master for him.
"Alright, Master, I understand.”
Guo Yuanchao nodded happily.
"Then let's begin."
As Xu Weijun spoke, he began to work while teaching his disciples.
The work in the workshop was quite hard, especially the fitter, blacksmith, and welder…
Xu Weijun also worked very hard every day, but he ate and drank well every day, so it was fine for him to work a little harder.
In addition, he now had a disciple to help out, so he was a little more relaxed.
"It seems that there are still benefits to having an apprentice. At least there is someone to help out, and the work will be easier.”
"If I had known earlier, I would have taken care of my apprentice when I was a Level 4 Welder. It wouldn't have been so hard.”
Xu Weijun thought to himself.
However, in the past, he had been focused on studying welding skills and had never thought of taking an apprentice.
……
After a day of work, when the bell rang in the rolling mill, Xu Weijun and a group of workers were ready to go to the restaurant.
Guo Yuanchao packed his things and was about to go home when he was stopped by Xu Weijun.
"Yuanchao, let's go together."
Guo Yuanchao was now his disciple. As a master, when he went to a restaurant, if there was good food, he had to call his disciple along.
"Alright, Master."
Guo Yuanchao was also very happy when he heard that.
Originally, he wanted to go home after work, but he didn't expect his master to take him to a restaurant.
He had never been to a restaurant before.
Thus, a group of about twenty people came to a small restaurant near the rolling mill and sat at three full tables.
Next, Xu Weijun ordered.
Pork, chicken, duck, fish, a few vegetables, and wine were served at every table.
Enough!
His colleagues were also very happy.
Following Xu Weijun, they simply went to a restaurant. There was only such a big table of dishes. It was more sumptuous than their family's New Year.
When the dishes were served, everyone toasted Xu Weijun.
"Wei Jun, let me toast to you. I hope you can continue to work hard and advance to the seventh and eighth grade welders.”
" I'll be promoted to an engineer in the future."
"Haha, when the time comes, it's time to hit the rich again!”
At the table, everyone was talking and laughing. The atmosphere was very lively.
"Alright, no problem!"
People are in high spirits at happy events.
Xu Weijun was also happy to have a group of coworkers who had worked in the same workshop for seven years gathered together.
He raised his head and the glass of wine was emptied.
At this moment, someone came into the small restaurant.
He was also a worker in the steel rolling mill and the fitter workshop.
However, there were not as many people as Xu Weijun's side. There were only seven or eight people.
The leader was Yi Zhonghai.
Yi Zhonghai used to be a seventh-grade fitter, but he passed the work-grade assessment and was promoted to a eighth-grade fitter.
From next month onwards, his salary would be the highest among the technical workers.
Therefore, after work, he went to a restaurant with his old friends in the workshop.
However, he did not expect to meet Xu Weijun.
"Grandpa Yi, let's go to a restaurant!"
Xu Weijun greeted Yi Zhonghai when he saw him.
Although he was not on good terms with the neighbors in the courtyard house, he still had to greet them.
"Yes!"
Yi Zhonghai nodded and said a few words to Xu Weijun before sitting down.
However, Yi Zhonghai was also very surprised to see the big fish and meat on Xu Weijun's table.
This Xu Weijun was only treating his colleagues to a meal, but there was actually pork, chicken, duck, and fish…
A table full of dishes was too extravagant!
People have comparisons. If I treat my coworkers to a meal that's too shabby, I'm afraid it won't be good if word gets out.
Therefore, Yi Zhonghai also braced himself and ordered a few meat dishes and a few vegetarian dishes.
Even the workers who came with Yi Zhonghai were secretly surprised. Old Yi was actually so generous?
However, when they saw the dishes on Xu Weijun's table, they all understood!
Old Yi did this out of respect for his reputation. He did not want to lose to Xu Weijun.
However, Xu Weijun was also young and promising!
A twenty-five-year-old Level 6 Welder had a limitless future.
……
After the meal, everyone dispersed.
Xu Weijun drank a lot of wine and was a little drunk. He walked lightly towards the courtyard house.
"If only I had a bicycle.”
He already had the money to buy a bicycle.
In the past, when his salary was low, he didn't dare to think about bicycles.
Ever since he was promoted to a Level 4 Welder, his monthly salary was 47.50 yuan.
Every month, other than spending 20 yuan on food and drinks, he saved everything else.
Up until now, he had saved more than 400 yuan.
It was enough to buy a bicycle.
However, in this era, even buying a bicycle required a bicycle ticket.
Money was not a problem, but bicycle tickets were hard to get!
"Tomorrow, I'll ask the workshop director if he can help me get a bicycle ticket.”
Xu Weijun thought to himself.
"Guards, wait!"
Yi Zhonghai caught up from behind, holding a lunchbox filled with leftovers.
Yi Zhonghai was not as generous as Xu Weijun. He did not want the leftovers and gave them all to his coworkers.
"Grandpa Yi, what's wrong?"
Xu Weijun stopped in his tracks and waited for Yi Zhonghai to catch up.
" That…Wei Jun, it was my fault in the past…"
"You won't blame me, right?"
Yi Zhonghai looked apologetic and awkward.
Xu Weijun was also very surprised. What was Yi Zhonghai doing?
You want to build a good relationship with me?
"Master Yi, what can I blame you for?”
Xu Weijun waved his hand.”
Yi Zhonghai stopped in his tracks. He was worried.
Xu Weijun did not blame him. That was the biggest problem.
This meant that Xu Weijun could not be bothered with him at all.
In fact, Xu Weijun thought so too.
He didn't want to bother with First Master.
