Return To 1977 Chapter 609: Level 24

lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!

This afternoon, Hong Yanwu and the others’ study mission was to visit various workshops.

Letting employees understand the hard work of each position is also a beneficial part of the factory's cohesion.

After Hong Yanwu and the others saw the soda filling process and the production process of various cans with great interest, the day basically passed.

The next step is to collect various labor insurance items. Before leaving, of course no one forgot to take a bath in the bathhouse.

After taking a day off and returning to work, the training content for the six of them changed to practical operations, and they went to various workshops to help.

Winter is the off-season for cold drinks, so the assembly lines in the cold food and cold drink workshops are not busy. But that doesn’t mean things are easy in the factory.

Because there is another very important task in winter, which is to make concentrated orange jam in advance to ensure production volume next year, and use orange peels to squeeze orange oil.

The oranges used by "Polar Bear" are not ordinary oranges. It is a kind of red orange called "Dahongpao", which only grows along the 100-kilometer coast of the Three Gorges Basin.

The meat of that thing is hard and rarely eaten raw. It is mostly used in cans. However, compared with ordinary oranges, its fragrance is particularly refreshing and neither **** nor greasy.

Oranges begin to mature in October every year, and the total output is roughly seven to eight thousand tons. Then they are picked as they ripen. After harvesting, these oranges have to be taken by train from Wanzhou, Sichuan to the capital.

At this time, the "Polar Bear" workers need to peel the oranges by hand first, use a crusher to crush the orange flesh and mature it into orange jam, and then use a high-speed centrifuge to shake off the orange oil in the orange peel. come out.

Orange oil is the most precious part. One ton of oranges can only produce six kilograms of oil. And the remaining orange peel won’t go to waste. It will then be purchased by major pharmaceutical factories in the capital and made into "orange red pills" for sale to the people of the capital.

The orange peels peeled off by the "polar bears" every year can meet about 50% of the raw material needs of major pharmaceutical factories in Beijing, and the remaining shortfalls are purchased and collected from the public.

From this perspective, "Polar Bear" has also made a great contribution to the health of Beijing citizens.

Of course, such a large amount of peeling work cannot be completed by the hundreds of people in the "Second Workshop" that produces soda drinks. Therefore, "polar bears" often have to hire hundreds of "seasonal workers" to help them.

This was what "temporary workers" were called at that time. Similarly, in summer and autumn, we have to do the same for peaches and grapes.

There is no doubt that for Hong Yanwu and the others, peeling oranges will undoubtedly become the main content of the nine-day labor test.

This time Chen Liquan is really suitable. Didn’t he say that he likes to ask about the smell of oranges?

As the oranges were delivered in batches one after another, and as the guys peeled more and more, the entire "Polar Bear" factory area was filled with the fragrant smell of oranges. It smells better than an orange grove.

Moreover, Chen Liquan has a lot of skills and has developed the "splitting tendons and bones". He does not need tools, and one person can peel as many oranges as three people. It is simply a human-shaped peeling machine.

Don't let the temporary workers misunderstand that they are veteran workers. Even the senior workers are praised by everyone and feel inferior to themselves.

The workshop director even had the idea of ​​asking for someone from Zhao Honglin, and kept trying to persuade Chen Liquan that it would be better to be a technical worker than to work in the canteen, but how could Chen Liquan be separated from Hong Yanwu? Hehe smiled and declined many times before giving up.

But compared to him, others suffered. The weather in November is quite cold. Even though everyone has a small knife, their fingers are still cold and painful after wearing it all day. After a few days, my fingers felt uncomfortable whenever I saw oranges.

In the end, even Hong Yanwu couldn't stand it anymore. Who told him not to practice Kung Fu, but then he showed off his talents beyond his own capabilities and got a lot of clear oranges from him? Then he deserved it?

But no matter what, their treatment is much better than that of "seasonal workers". That's what people call real hardship. The work is tiring, the income is little, the management is strict, and the requirements are high.

In turn, because they will be divided into various important departments in the future. And there are two attractive girls here, Shui Qing and Lan Zhaodi. The workers in the "Second Workshop" are willing to have a good relationship with them.

Don’t say that it won’t be difficult no matter what you do. He also took the initiative to get soda drinks from his lunch box for them to drink.

It's just such a cold weather. Not only is it bright, it's also freezing. That taste is truly bitter and joyful at the same time.

Shui Qing and Lan Zhaodi are girls, and they are afraid of harming their bodies, so they will definitely not drink. Hong Yanwu, Chen Liquan, and Xiao Heping can also just taste it. Only Yin Guangming is a little tasteless.

Hey, let's drink it cold on the spot. When he got off work, he couldn't forget to ask someone to fill it up and take it back to drink. While peeling the orange, I didn’t forget to stuff it into my mouth.

This made the workers in the second workshop a little disdainful.

Some people say, "You can eat it but not dry it. If you can't peel it, you won't eat enough."

Some people said, "It's such a shame that I still work as a security guard. I can take advantage of this. If I don't do it, I will just be a thief in the future."

This made Hong Yanwu and the others lose face, but fortunately, they would be on duty soon, and they would be able to stay away from him.

It's really fast. Time passed in a flash. Shuiqing organizes labor records every day and reports to Zhao Honglin.

While Chen Liquan and Hong Yanwu bravely shouldered heavy responsibilities, the fruits of their labor were fully recognized by the Second Workshop.

At the end of the training, Shui Qing wrote another summary. Zhao Honglin read it and handed it to the factory office without changing a word. The old director was also surprised when he saw it. He said it was well organized, comprehensive, and his writing was beautiful, and he praised Shui Qing as a talent. It was decided not only to leave the propaganda to her, but also to let her participate in the management of the Communist Youth League.

When the salary was set like this, the director made the decision to move up a level. He made an exception and directly set the level for Shui Qing to level 24. The salary was 43 yuan. Adding the non-staple food subsidy and the factory bonus, the total was more than 70 yuan. . It is enough to prove the respect and recognition for her.

When Shui Qing’s family heard about this, of course they were happy.

Aunt Shui exclaimed, "Hey, as soon as you start working in an office, your salary exceeds your dad's salary. Your dad is a level six businessman. Is it so good to be a cadre? No, you earn more than a section chief." It’s a lot, and it’s more than the average worker’s income in two months. Girl, are you right? Don’t let your mother’s joy go to waste..."

Shui Gengsheng quickly showed off. "Tch, what do you know! This is an enterprise with good profits. Besides, Qing'er has a cadre level of 24 as soon as he starts work. Who can compare with this? Do you think being an apprentice will only earn 170 cents and four bowls of porridge? It must be said that our Qing'er has the ability to be valued so much. What's wrong with being out of school? It's really a blessing in disguise. Everything is paid in other units. , it’s not the right time yet…”

(Note: At that time, the price of porridge in the canteen was one cent, a bowl. One hundred and seventy cents for a bowl of porridge was seventeen yuan and eight cents.)

But none of them expected that Shui Qing would say it.

"Dad, Mom, you are really serious. If you ask me to remember the well diggers when drinking water, it is better to remember Xiaowu and Quanzi."

After hearing this, Shui Gengsheng and Aunt Shui were still happy, but their faces turned a little red.
