Siheyuan: Survival Guide for Courtyard No. 95

Yang Liming's face changed when he heard what the old lady said. The judges for the senior worker assessment were all sent by the higher-ups. Although he, as a factory secretary, could do a little bit of manipulation, it was too dangerous. If he was discovered, he would no longer be able to do his job as secretary.

"Old lady, you don't know that this time the department sent people to participate in the assessment. I heard that the leader is Li Huaide's father-in-law. They have been trying to find something to hold against me to get me out. If I make trouble in the assessment, I would be throwing a knife into their hands.

Even if you have a big shot in the district behind you, you can't let me go and seek my own death, right?"

Before the deaf old lady came, she had considered that Yang Liming would refuse, but she was convinced that as long as she was willing to pay the price, the other party would not be able to refuse. She took out two large yellow croakers from her arms and put them on the table and said.

"Secretary Yang, I won't let you do this for nothing. This is just a deposit. As long as Zhonghai passes the 8th level, I will give you three more. How do you think about this?"

One yellow croaker weighs 312.5 grams, which is equivalent to several thousand RMB in those days, and two would be more than ten thousand yuan. The deaf old lady agreed to give him five at once, which shows that she was determined to help Yi Zhonghai get promoted to level 8 worker.

Yang Liming was also a little confused. These five large yellow croakers were worth tens of thousands of RMB. Even if Yi Zhonghai was promoted to a level 8 worker and did not eat or drink, it would take him several decades to save up the money. What did this old lady want?

But greed took over instantly. The other party gave him too much. He liked to eat and drink, and although his salary was high, it was still not enough for him to spend.

"Old lady, you have invested so much money, are there other things you are hiding from me?"

Yang Limin asked worriedly, some things are better to be made clear.

“Secretary Yang, my life has basically been like this, so there is no point in saving the money. I just hope that Zhonghai can pass the 8th-level worker exam, so that no matter what happens in the future, it won’t be a big deal for him.

Besides, please help me take care of this child, Shazhu. This child is kind-hearted and honest, but he is a little bit stupid. I really don’t ask for anything else, old lady.”

Yang Liming reached out and picked up the big yellow croaker. The two croakers collided with each other and made a crisp sound. He felt that this was the most beautiful sound in the world, much better than the sound of counting money.

After hesitating for a while, he finally collected the yellow croaker. This was a huge sum of money for anyone, and he also wanted to make progress. With this thing as a ladder, it should be much easier.

When the deaf old lady saw Yang Liming took the money, a faint smile appeared on her face and she left without any further greetings.

As soon as he walked out of the steel mill, he started singing.

"Look ahead, it's dark, that must be the thief's lair. When I catch up, I'll kill him cleanly."

In April 61, the 4th World Table Tennis Championships was held in Beijing. This was also the first world competition held after the founding of New China.

At the same time, the assessment of senior workers in the steel rolling mill is also in full swing.

Although Yang Limin said that it was difficult to operate, the reality was that there were many places where cheating could be done.

Because he is the head of the factory, he can know the parts requirements for the assessment one day in advance. He can ask Lao Yi to make a few first, and then use a trick to replace the original one when the assessment comes.

Even if there is no chance to replace parts, you can ask Lao Yi to make a few overnight. It is better to sharpen the tool before the battle.

There are too many methods like this. As long as there are "people" supervising, there will definitely be a way to operate it. It’s just a matter of what kind of effort is required.

Lao Yi did not waste this rare opportunity and passed the 8th level fitter test in one go. He is also the only 8th level fitter who passed the test in the factory. This means that in the future, when it comes to fitters in the steel rolling mill, Lao Yi’s words will be more effective than those of the workshop director.

Zhao Shanhe watched Yi Zhonghai's operation throughout the whole process and memorized the opponent's cheating methods one by one. Others might not be able to do it, but in the face of enhanced five senses, everything seems so ridiculous.

Here, Yang Liming and Yi Zhonghai were still having lunch with their leaders in the steel rolling mill's canteen, and he made a phone call to a certain investigation department.

"Leader, Yi Zhonghai is taking an assessment for level 8 workers today. I have written down all the cheating methods. Can we arrest him?"

Old Z was also hesitating. He had always wanted to use Old Yi to fish, but unfortunately the other party didn't take the bait. If he really let the other party pass level 8 this time, he would not be able to deal with him for ordinary crimes in the future.

"Shanhe, you don't have to worry about anything in this matter, we will handle everything, you just need to hide yourself.

Since Yi Zhonghai dared to cheat in the assessment, there must be someone behind him supporting him. It may be related to the leaders of your factory. We will definitely investigate it thoroughly. "

Zhao Shanhe hung up the phone and went to the cafeteria to eat. Before Yang Liming and others put down their chopsticks, the Investigation Department came directly to their door.

The team leader, Old Z, looked at Yang Liming, whose face was flushed, then looked at Yi Zhonghai, who was slightly tipsy, clapped his hands and said.

"You two are really in a good mood. Why are you so happy after passing level 8?

Yi Zhonghai, someone reported you for cheating in the assessment, what do you say about this?"

Old Z's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, instantly waking Old Yi up.

"Leader, I completed this assessment in front of everyone. It's completely nonsense to say that I cheated."

Old Z smiled and pointed at a master craftsman beside him and said.

“This is the chief fitter of the Sijiucheng Steel Plant. He should have been transferred out long ago, but he never did because he was recovering from illness.

I specially invited him here today just to see Master Yi's craftsmanship.

Is it cheating or genuine? You will know the truth after trying it. Master Yi, please come."

Some things can be falsified at will, such as speaking.

Some things simply cannot be faked, like locksmithing skills.

Yi Zhonghai was escorted to the third workshop. He was sweating profusely as he held the parts in his hands, but he did not dare to start working. Finally, he dared to start working only after being urged by the chief fitter.

After a set of operations, the chief didn't even look at the parts, he just touched them and knew whether they were level 8 or not.

“This part is well made, level 7 is good enough, but level 8 is a little short.

But this is just the simplest part in level 8, and you can make it like this. It seems that your level 8 skills are not good enough.

Come, let’s try a more difficult one.”

There was no way Yi Zhonghai could handle it this time. Even the simplest parts lacked precision, let alone the higher levels of difficulty?

He sat down on the ground and started to mess things up.

"I confessed that it was Secretary Yang who helped me cheat so that I could pass the 8th-level worker exam. It was all because there were no technical experts in the factory and someone had to fill in the gaps, so I was forced to take the exam.

I was forced to do this, I feel wronged."

The cunning Yi Zhonghai sold out Old Yang completely with a series of punches and reduced his own guilt to the lowest level, leaving Yang Liming, who was standing nearby, dumbfounded.
