60s: I have a store

Chapter 30 Rewards and Praise
After Zhou Zhiming and his men had gathered enough stones, they moved the mud bricks over and piled them next to them.

Today we are preparing the materials and tomorrow we will officially break ground.

Mr. Zhou looked at the almanac and decided that tomorrow would be a good day to start construction.

Zhou Yimin originally wanted to have everyone eat in the evening, but was stopped by the old man. It was against the rules, they could have a better meal and let them eat more, but two meals a day was not appropriate.

Normally when people hire someone to work for them, they provide one meal. If you provide two meals, you are breaking the rules.

Will other people's families provide one meal or two meals in the future?
If you only provide one meal, the people working there will say that your family is stingy. If you only provide two meals, who will have an easy time now?

When Zhou Yimin heard it, he felt it made sense.

learned.

It is true that having an old person in the family is like a treasure, and the old man sees everything.

Zhou Yimin didn't know that in the afternoon, a document from above was sent to his steel plant and handed over to Director Hu.

After reading it, Director Hu was overjoyed. He didn't expect that his factory had such a talent. He immediately called Director Ding, who was in charge of logistics, to come over to find out more about the situation.

"Zhou Yimin? He is a good comrade. He just joined the company not long ago, but he has purchased meat for our factory many times recently..." Director Ding praised him generously.

He is very protective of the people in his department, especially those who are capable.

"Then do you know that he improved a water pressure well? The components were made in our factory. It has been proven that it is very useful and has a huge effect on alleviating drought in rural areas of our country.

The ministry has issued a notice requiring our factory to set up a workshop to fully produce the parts needed for water pressure wells.

At the same time, we must commend Comrade Zhou Yimin and let our factory announce his praise. Where is Comrade Zhou Yimin?" Director Hu said happily.

This time, their steel plant got a lot of publicity.

Director Ding: “…”

Is there such a thing?

Zhou Yimin gave him a big surprise! This made him proud. This little Zhou didn't even inform him of such an important matter in advance.

"Director, I'll go ask."

It is impossible for him to keep an eye on the whereabouts of every logistics staff member at all times.

Director Hu was thinking about how to reward Zhou Yimin. Although he was given a bonus of 500 yuan, their steel plant could not remain silent!

After thinking for a moment, he decided to raise Zhou Yimin's work grade by two levels, and give him an additional reward of 100 yuan and a number of various tickets.

Also notify the Propaganda Office to prepare for commendation, publicity and other matters.

Afterwards, Director Hu called other senior executives of the factory to a meeting to discuss the opening of a production workshop.

After listening to what Section Chief Zheng said, Section Chief Wang was stunned.

A buyer invented something? What he invented was actually valued by the higher-ups, who were preparing to start mass production in their factory.

Is this outrageous? Are you sure you're not kidding?

"Director Ding just told me, where is Xiao Zhou now?" asked Section Chief Zheng.

Section Chief Wang: "He should have gone to the countryside to purchase goods."

You can't say that Zhou Yimin was absent from work and went home early, right?

"Okay! When he gets back, come to my office and let me know."

Since Zhou Yimin was not there, Section Chief Zheng would not stay any longer.

Section Chief Wang couldn't calm down for a long time.

If this continues, he might lose Zhou Yimin, his capable general! He might even lose him.

Thinking of this, he thought that he should also work harder and strive for progress.

Master Chen in the workshop was also confused, thinking that something had happened to him.

Originally, he used the factory's machines to do private work, which was against regulations. It would be fine if no one checked, but once he was caught, he would have no way to explain.

However, the workshop director told him that the steel plant would set up a special workshop and promote him to team leader, responsible for the production of parts for water pressure wells.

Master Chen never expected that he would be promoted to team leader because of this. As for the matter of making parts for Zhou Yimin, the factory did not pursue it and no one mentioned it.

He also knew that this opportunity was brought to him by Zhou Yimin.

So, Old Chen found Yang Zhenhua, the third uncle of Zhou Yimin's courtyard, who wanted to help him with something.

"Old Yang, thanks to you this time, I'll treat you to a drink some other day. Please tell Xiao Zhou that I don't want the reward later, thank him for me.

By the way, the four sets of parts he wants can be made tomorrow." said Master Chen.

Yang Zhenhua was extremely envious when he learned that his friend had become a team leader.

He had just heard the broadcast and was happy for Yimin. He was promising! He had only been employed for less than a month and not only had he been promoted to a full-time employee, he had also been promoted by two levels.

"Okay, I'll talk to him." Yang Zhenhua nodded.

……

The next morning, the first thing Zhou Yimin did after waking up was to check the store’s 1 yuan flash sale area.

Today's is 100 kilograms of millet and 100 kilograms of apples.

Zhou Yimin bought it for another 2 yuan. There is nothing much to say about millet. Some people like to eat millet and say that it is more nutritious, but Zhou Yimin can't get used to it.

Apples are good things! Although they are grown in northern my country, it is still a little difficult for ordinary people to eat apples.

Many people don’t know that there were no apples in China originally. They were introduced to my country from Europe in the mid-19th century and first settled in Luochuan County, Ya City, SX Province.

Breakfast is still white flour buns and eggs.

"Grandma, I'm going back to the city. Don't wait for me for lunch at noon," Zhou Yimin said to his grandmother.

"Okay! Ride slowly." Grandma reminded.

My eldest grandson has a job in a steel factory in the city. How can he stay in the village every day?
Zhou Yimin took the two deer antlers and went outside. He saw Zhou Zhiming and his men digging the foundation. They were working hard, so he went up to them and fired a round of cigarettes before leaving.

He first went back to the courtyard to see Master Gu's construction progress.

Just after returning to the courtyard, he met an old lady from the front yard. As soon as they met, she praised him for his abilities, saying that he had been promoted two levels in less than a month after joining the steel factory.

and many more!

"Auntie, who told you that?" Zhou Yimin was a little confused. When did I get promoted?

"Don't you know yet? Your whole factory has praised him. I heard from your uncle that..."

The aunt began to explain it to Zhou Yimin in detail.

After hearing this, Zhou Yimin finally understood what was going on.

Is that leader in the Zhongshan suit so efficient?

"Auntie, I have two deer antlers here, and I would like to ask an uncle to help me process them so that I can make wine with them.

Oh, and there are two apples as gifts. You can take them back and try them." After Zhou Yimin took out the deer antlers, he took out two apples from the shopping basket.

He knew that the old man also understood Chinese medicine and had often seen him drying Chinese medicine in the yard, so he brought the antlers back.

When the old lady saw the two big apples, her eyes widened.

I have seen apples before, but this is the first time I have seen such good apples.

"You are so polite, kid. All right, I'll talk to your uncle when he comes back."

The old lady quickly took the deer antlers and apples.

When Zhou Yimin passed by Xu's house, he waved to Dongdong and other children in the yard who were playing, and gave each of them a handful of melon seeds.

"Thank you, Brother Yimin!"

The women in the courtyard watched this scene with smiles on their faces and praised it one after another.

I have made progress again and am now ranked 24th. Thank you very much!
