Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

Chapter 120 I work overtime, I am happy (1200 monthly ticket plus more)

On the notice board of the garment factory, a notice about overtime was posted. The uneducated Auntie Wang came over again. "Xiao Zhang, what is written on this notice?" Aunt Wang asked. "It's Sister Wang. Today's post is an overtime notice." Xiao Zhang said cheerfully. "Working overtime?" Aunt Wang frowned in disgust. She hated working overtime the most. "Why are you working overtime again! The children at home are still waiting for me to go back to cook! I have to ask for a leave." Aunt Wang has already started to wonder what reason should she use to ask for a leave to avoid working overtime. Xiao Zhang said with a smile: "Sister Wang, you don't need to ask for leave, this overtime work is voluntary, the factory doesn't force it!" "It's voluntary overtime, that's great, at my age, if you work overtime, your body will also bear the burden. If you can't stay, go home early, do the laundry, and do the housework!" Aunt Wang said. "Sister Wang, this notice also said that if you work overtime at night, you can go to the cafeteria for dinner. The company subsidizes the cafeteria 3,000 yuan every month. It is estimated that you can eat meat every day." Xiao Zhang said. "I bought you a piece of meat!" Aunt Wang secretly said in her heart, he pouted his lips, and said, "Then you have to eat enough at night, so that you can work overtime, add a few more. An hour can be considered a contribution to the factory!" "Why don't you add a few more hours!" Xiao Zhang nodded seriously: "One hour is one dollar!" Aunt Wang was slightly taken aback: "What? One dollar per hour?" "Overtime pay! It's written on the notice that if you work overtime for one hour, you will be paid one yuan for overtime. I thought that if I worked three hours of overtime a day, it would be ninety hours for thirty days a month. Ninety dollars for overtime!" Xiao Zhang replied. "Overtime and overtime pay?" As an old comrade in the garment factory, Auntie Wang felt that her three views were challenged, thinking that Auntie Wang also often worked overtime back then, but at that time she always shouted "Work hard for a hundred days and fight hard." slogans like "three months", and then a large group of people started generating electricity for love, and there is no such thing as overtime pay. In the next second, Aunt Wang quickly began to count. One hour of overtime pay, three hours of overtime a day, 90 yuan a month, plus the subsidy for dinner, how can you get back 10 yuan a month! In this way, it is equivalent to earning an extra 100 yuan per month. Aunt Wang's monthly income is only 100 yuan, so it is equivalent to double salary! Thinking of this, Aunt Wang came out with a sentence: "It's good to work overtime, I like to work overtime the most!"... At nine o'clock in the evening, the workshop of the garment factory was still brightly lit, and the workers were working overtime. Xiao Zhang stood up, stretched, twisted his neck, and looked at the clock on the wall. "It's already nine o'clock, the children at home should have gone to bed!" Xiao Zhang let out a long sigh, but there was a look of relief on his face. If you work overtime for three hours, you can get overtime pay of three yuan, and the money to buy white shoes for the child can be counted. After working for three hours in a row, I was actually a little tired. Fortunately, at dinner, the cafeteria added a fried egg to everyone and supplemented with protein. Even after working hard for three hours, I didn’t feel hungry. Next to Comrade Xiao Zhang, Aunt Wang was still sitting there, working overtime full of energy. "Sister Wang, it's already nine o'clock in the evening, let's go back!" Xiao Zhang said. "You go first, I'll add another hour to the shift." Aunt Wang replied without raising her head. Xiao Zhang was suddenly a little surprised. He didn't expect that Aunt Wang, who would be fifty years old in a few years, would be so energetic, much stronger than himself, a man in his thirties. "Sister Wang, you've been working for three hours in a row, aren't you tired?" Xiao Zhang asked involuntarily. "I'm not tired, what is this? It's only three hours! I think I can work for another three hours!" Auntie Wang said proudly. Xiao Zhang looked at Aunt Wang in front of her. She suddenly realized that this old colleague who had worked with her for more than ten years seemed a little strange. Is this still the Auntie Wang who is number one after get off work! ...China has no shortage of hardworking workers,

The only thing missing is money. As long as the money is in place, working overtime to death is definitely not a slogan. The 996 work system of later generations of Chinese Internet companies is considered to be inhumane overtime, but compared with their fathers and grandparents, what is the 996 work system? Workers in the 1950s and 1960s are really crazy overtime! What is the weekend? What is the eight-hour workday? What is spare time? None of these things need to exist. At that time, the employees of state-owned enterprises really used the factory as their home. In the days when there was no overtime pay, the workers could make the factory their home just by generating electricity with love. Now, with overtime pay of one yuan per hour, workers can't wait to stay in the factory 24 hours a day to work overtime. I used to work overtime to generate electricity for love, but now I don't love it anymore and talk about money directly. Although it hurts my feelings, I am really happy. The workers of the garment factory are very enthusiastic about working overtime, and Li Weidong is also a little relieved. According to this production progress, there is no problem in delivering on time. Another problem was solved. Li Weidong was in a good mood. After get off work, he bought a roast chicken and planned to go home and have a drink with Mr. Li Dengke. As soon as I entered the house, I saw the second sister Li Chunyan was busy in front of the stove, the second brother-in-law Yao Guangzhi accompanied Li Dengke, sitting in the living room drinking tea, and the scumbag younger brother Li Weimin also took a pony and sat aside. "Brother-in-law is here! Just in time, I bought a roast chicken. I said it was an old rooster that had only been raised for several years. The meat is definitely chewy!" Li Weidong said and put the roast chicken on the table. "Weidong, it's just time for me to come back. Dad and I are talking about Weimin!" Yao Guangzhi leaned to the side and made room for Li Weidong. "What's wrong with Weimin?" Li Weidong asked subconsciously. "Brother, can you think of me to order it!" Li Weimin complained aggrievedly. Yao Guangzhi continued to say, "Weimin is about to graduate from junior high school. This is not a discussion. After Weimin graduates, what kind of job should he find for him." With the grades of Li Weimin, who is a scumbag, he will definitely not be able to get into high school. Don't expect to go to secondary school. After graduating from junior high school, it is the best way for Li Weimin to join the job quickly. The old man Li Dengke said: "I was thinking, after Weimin graduates, he will go to the transportation company to work as a temporary worker, and then slowly consider the matter of becoming a regular. But your brother-in-law said that he can find a relationship there. Go to other units." "Other units are good, better than the transportation company. Don't look at the efficiency of the transportation company now, but in the past few years, there have been more individual transportation companies, and the transportation company is not as good as it is now. Li Weidong looked at Yao Guangzhi and asked, "Brother-in-law, what kind of connections do you have over there?" "There are also several good units in our Xijiao Sub-district Office. I'll find a relationship, but I can help Weidong." The people are recruited to work." Yao Guangzhi replied. Yao Guangzhi is now a deputy section-level cadre in the Xijiao Sub-district Office. Although he is a grass-roots sesame and mung bean officer, he is still somewhat related to the sub-district office. It should be no problem to arrange a formal job for Li Weimin. "Brother-in-law, there are quite a few decent companies in your Xijiao Sub-district Office. Which company are you looking for for Weimin?" Li Weidong asked. "The construction company in our area, now renamed the Municipal Construction Company, is expanding recently. If Weimin goes there, he will definitely be able to get a formal worker establishment." Yao Guangzhi replied. "The city construction company is good. Now all units are building family buildings. The benefits of the construction company must be good. I think Weimin can go!" Li Weidong nodded in agreement. "I'm not going to move bricks anymore. It's hard and tiring. I can't do that work." Li Weimin immediately shook his head. Li Weidong had no choice but to persuade: "Weimin, listen to me, although going to a construction company will be very hard, but it will not last long. After two or three years, a large number of farmers will come to the city to work. Regular workers are all foremen. In a few years, there is still a chance to become a cadre, at least for a lifetime." In the late 1980s, although many migrant workers had left their hometowns and came to work in cities, most It is still concentrated in the developed areas along the southern coast. In the northern region, it was only after the 1990s that migrant workers flooded into cities on a large scale. Therefore, in 1987, the workers of the construction company were all officially working workers. Unlike the construction workers of later generations, they were all temporary workers. In Li Weidong's memory, after the number of migrant workers gradually increased in the 1990s, the front-line brick-moving work was handed over to migrant workers, and all the formal workers in the construction company became managers, so there was no need to laboriously move bricks and cement. In the late 1990s, the construction company was restructured and became a joint-stock cooperative enterprise, and those old workers got some shares more or less. After 2008, China's infrastructure has been developing frantically, and the construction industry has been very prosperous. It is normal for those shares in the hands of old workers to pay 50,000 to 600,000 yuan in dividends a year. Obviously, from a long-term perspective, a construction company is a good place to go. Although it will be hard for a few years at the beginning, it will be able to eat and drink in the future. The dividends of 50,000 to 600,000 yuan a year, although it is not a big wealth, You can also be a little rich in a prefecture-level city like Qinghe. However, Li Weimin shook his head resolutely: "The construction site is too tiring, I would rather go to a transportation company as a temporary worker than to go to the construction site!" "Weimin, you have to endure hardships to be a superior person, how can there be in this world? An easy and lucrative job." Li Weidong said. "In short, I just don't go to a construction company!" Li Weimin said stubbornly.

The old man Li Dengke was also reluctant for his younger son to go to the construction site to move bricks, so he asked, "Guangzhi, besides construction companies, are there any other good companies?" "Then let's go to the power plant, which is also expanding recently. The production capacity is said to be another unit, so a group of workers must be recruited." Yao Guangzhi said. "The power plant is not bad either. The drought and flood are guaranteed! And the power consumption will only increase in the future, and the scale of the power plant will also increase." Li Weidong agreed. The power plant in Qinghe City was also restructured in the late 1990s and became a state-owned limited company. In addition to generating electricity, it also undertakes urban heating and waste incineration. Although the development potential of the power plant is not as good as that of the construction company, it is an iron job for a lifetime. Li Weimin asked, "What are you going to do in a power plant?" "You didn't graduate from an electric power school, and you definitely don't have a technical position. I guess it's either to shovel coal or shovel coal ash." Yao Guangzhi replied. . "Don't go! It's better to go to the construction site to move bricks than to shovel coal ash, at least not to panic!" Li Weimin shook his head. "Weimin, this coal shoveling is only temporary. In the future, technology will become more and more developed. When the time comes, press a button and the coal will be transmitted through the crawler." Li Weidong persuaded. "In the future, it will be the year of the monkey and the month of the horse! In short, I won't go to the power plant." Li Weimin said firmly. Yao Guangzhi had long expected Li Weimin's reaction, he said, "There is another unit, which is our western suburbs department store. If you go, you can help move the goods and deliver them to the counter. There are no heavy objects in the department store. It won’t be too tiring to deliver the goods.” When he heard the Xijiao Department Store, Li Weidong immediately rejected it: “No, you can’t go to the department store!” However, Li Weimin nodded frantically: “The department store is fine, I’ll go to the department store. !"
