The booming era begins with the director of the Propaganda Department!

Chapter 121 Gizmo! !

The broadcast at the steel rolling mill today was very confusing, and no one could understand it very well.

So when they saw Zhang Chenfei appear, they immediately surrounded him.

Amid everyone's flurry of questions, Zhang Chenfei walked slowly to the stone table and sat down.

Xu Damao immediately brought a large enamel vat over in a clumsy manner: "Brother Da Fei, tea!!"

"Thank you." Zhang Chenfei took the tea, took a sip, and then said leisurely: "Everyone wants to know what the eight-level salary system is about?"

Everyone nodded.

Zhang Chenfei deliberately betrayed him:
  "Speaking of the eight-level wage system, we must talk about the wage points system after the last wage reform. Does anyone know what the wage points are??"

"As you said, most of the people living in our yard are old people from the steel rolling mill. Who wouldn't know that?
  Let alone adults, even an eight-year-old child can explain it to you! ! ! "Si Zhu felt that Zhang Chenfei was talking nonsense.

Xu Damao couldn't help but rolled his eyes at him: "That's stupid."

"Xu Damao, what the hell are you farting on?" Silly Zhu rolled up his sleeves.

Seeing this, everyone in the courtyard quickly came to persuade him. They didn't care whether Xu Damao was beaten or not, but it was a critical moment and they didn't want them to waste time.

After Zhang Chenfei heard what Sha Zhu said, he really asked the third child, Zhang Fenfeng, to answer.

Six-year-old Zhang Fendou stood up and said in a sweet voice: "The salary is composed of three parts: food, clothing, and allowances.
  And the quantities of these five physical items are converted into 0.8 city catties of grain, 0.2 city catties of cloth, 0.05 city catties of oil, 0.02 city catties of salt, and 2.0 city catties of coal.

Wage scores across the country are not uniform, but are announced monthly by local authorities.

When an enterprise pays wages, it converts the wage points into the total price of purchasable materials and issues them to employees. The system is cumbersome and wages fluctuate every month. "

At this point, I hesitated and couldn't continue.

All he knew was what his second uncle had mentioned before when he was lighting a fire for him, but he didn't know what his second uncle didn't say.

Zhang Chenfei took over the words: "The wage system has been greatly improved compared to the previous supply system.

However, it has the biggest drawback, that is, regardless of skill level, only seniority is counted.

Many bastards with poor skills will end up with the same salary as those with top skills. "

As soon as he said this, Yi Zhonghai, Zhang Chenliang, and Yi Zhonghai nodded.

However, Mrs. Jia Zhang was unconvinced: "That's not fair at all!!"

In this case, how can she get a raise in salary while fishing? ? ! !
  If you fish for fifteen years, your salary will be the same as if you fish for five years, then wouldn’t the next ten years of fishing be in vain? ?

"Aunt Zhang, don't interrupt!!" Zhang Chenfei said one word, and Mrs. Jia Zhang immediately became as obedient as a kitten.

When other people in the courtyard saw this, they were immediately amazed. How could the old godly woman understand people's words? ?

Zhang Chenfei then said:

“The eight-level wage system refers to the Big Brother Bear Bear model, which refers to dividing workers into eight levels according to their skill level.

In fact, at the end of 1950, the eight-level wage system had been implemented in the three eastern provinces outside Guanhai.

Starting from this document, the country was divided into eleven categories of regions. Most enterprises in the industry, construction, and transportation departments of each major administrative region also began to implement it.

If the trial results are suitable, it will be rolled out nationwide within five years. "

After Zhang Chenfei finished speaking, he picked up the teapot and drank tea for a while. Yi Zhonghai became anxious when he saw that he hadn't gotten to the point yet.

Not caring about the holiday between himself and Zhang Chenfei, he hurriedly asked:

"Da Fei, I heard that this is a technical assessment?? People with good skills will most likely have a greatly increased salary, right??"

Zhang Chenfei nodded: "Our Forty-Nine City is divided into six types of areas. The salary of first-level mechanics is 33 yuan, and the salary of second-level workers is 33 yuan. The highest salary for level 8 workers is 99 yuan per month."

Ninety-nine yuan? ? Everyone in the courtyard opened their mouths in surprise.

We must know that Yi Zhonghai, who has the longest working experience and the best skills in the entire courtyard, only earns between fifty and fifty-five per month.

And this salary is already considered top-notch among mechanics in steel rolling mills.

Who would have thought that there is such a thing as ninety-nine! ! !
  Yi Zhonghai's face turned red with excitement. He felt that if he performed well during the technical assessment, even if he was not an eighth-level worker, he would still be a sixth-level worker! !
  Level 6 worker, that’s seventy-two! ! ! That’s half as much as every month now! !
  The per capita living standard in Sijiucheng is eight yuan per person per month, which means that his monthly salary can support nine people! !

A family of nine, that is, we can afford to raise seven children! ! !

Yi Zhonghai's eyes wandered to the gourd babies of the Zhang family, but suddenly dimmed again.

Hey, what's the use of making more money? ? No one spent it.
  Compared with Yi Zhonghai, who has ups and downs of mood, Liu Haizhong's mood is obviously much more exciting.

His forging skills have always been top-notch in the steel rolling mill, but because of insufficient service experience, he has been receiving a salary of forty per month.

This wave of wages based on technology is the most beneficial to people like him.

Even if you get a level 4 job, you can still make a lot more money in a month.

Once you become a seventh-level worker or an eighth-level worker, no matter how well you perform, won't you be able to become a cadre? ?

Thinking of this, he raised his right foot and stamped the ground violently.

When he raised his head and looked around at everyone, his eyes were full of emotions that he had never seen before, and his hands were quietly clasped behind his back.

Some people are happy and some are worried. There are skilled people like Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong in the courtyard, and naturally some of them can make ends meet by relying on their seniority.

After listening to Zhang Chenfei’s explanation, Uncle Chen’s son Chen Laowu suddenly looked sad:

"It's not Da Fei. According to what you said, my salary shouldn't be reduced a lot?"

Zhang Chenfei put down the teapot in his hand and looked at him: "Brother Chen Wu, don't worry. According to the documents issued by the state, the premise of this salary reform is that everyone's salary after the reform will not be lower than the original salary. But if you want to raise your salary in the future, you can only rely on technology."

"By the way, the Publicity Department will post the detailed eight-level work system on the publicity board tomorrow. Everyone should go and take a look."

As soon as he said this, the others immediately felt relieved and began to discuss what level their own skills could be.

Some gangsters are also thinking that they can no longer hang out in the future, otherwise it will be miserable if they don't level up for the rest of their lives.

Seeing this, Shazhu also approached Zhang Chenfei and handed him a cigarette: "Brother Da Fei, are our chefs also rated?"

Although he is just helping the cook in the cafeteria now, he has followed his father He Daqing since he was a child. He picked up a knife at the age of five and a shovel at the age of seven. Later, he went to Fengze Garden to learn skills for three years.

When it comes to technology, he is not afraid of anyone! ! All he lacks is seniority.

Zhang Chenfei obviously knew what he was thinking. After lighting up the cigarette, he blew out a smoke ring and said leisurely:

"The chef grading standard is from level 10 to level 1, with level 10 being the lowest and level 1 being the highest. With your kid's level, setting it to level 9 is not a big problem."

After all, the steel rolling mill is just a factory. The cook's main job is to cook a big pot of rice, and the level requirements are not high.

As long as he can successfully level up, Shazhu can break away from his role as a cook and truly start taking charge.

After hearing this, Shazhu suddenly felt happy. If he could cook a spoon, he would no longer have to look at the chef's face in the kitchen, nor would he have to pour swill or clean up.

The most important thing is that I can always bring leftovers back to Sister Qin. How nice! ! !

In the following week, the steel rolling mill was busier than ever in order to grade the workers.

In this era, the country had not yet established a special grading agency. The grades of technical personnel were assessed and appointed by the administrative leaders and organizational departments of each unit.

The steel rolling mill has specially set up an assessment team for this purpose. Members include Director Wen of the Ministry of Metallurgy, Director Yang and Deputy Director Li of the steel rolling mill, leaders of the party committee and labor union, as well as several retired workers.

Because all workers had to take part in the assessment, the scene was very chaotic.

Zhang Chenfei, Xu Damao and others were also transferred to maintain order.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the fifth day of the assessment.

During the lunch break, the workers went to eat. Zhang Chenfei sat in front of various assessment machines, planning to make himself a paring knife.

When I peeled sweet potatoes before, one cut of the knife removed the skin and flesh by two centimeters. What a waste! !

Following the image of a commonly used paring knife in his memory, he worked hard and asked his eldest brother Zhang Chenliang for help in areas with higher technical content.

In this way, by the afternoon working time, an all-steel paring knife that was very common in later generations was completed.

This paring knife has teeth on the front for peeling and scraping on the back.

Zhang Chenfei couldn't put it down after holding it in his hand. After talking to Xu Damao, who worked with him, he went to the cafeteria and asked Sha Zhu for potatoes, radishes and apples.

Returning to the assessment site, he first peeled the potatoes and radishes, and then used the other side to peel them all into thin shreds of even thickness.

The apple was peeled in circles, and finally the whole apple was peeled, and the skin was not broken at all.

"Hey, is this gadget so powerful? Brother Da Fei, what's its name?" Xu Damao looked on curiously.

This thing looks small, but the peeled skin is thin and long. Moreover, the threads cut out are the same thickness and neater than those cut by Shazhu.

"I invented this myself, and I named it the peeling grater." After Zhang Chenfei introduced it, he took the apple and ate it.

He also asked Xu Damao to find a lunch box and pack shredded potatoes and radish.

"Don't waste it, take it home and stir-fry it at night."

"Hey!!" Xu Damao responded happily.

The work in the afternoon was as boring as the previous few days. Zhang Chenfei and Xu Damao suppressed their drowsiness to maintain order.

I don’t know how long it took,

Suddenly I heard a burst of thunderous applause coming from the assessment site.

"Seventh level worker, Yi Zhonghai actually passed the seventh level fitter assessment!!"

"Hiss!! This is the first level seven worker in our factory so far, right?!!!"

"A seventh-level worker earns a monthly salary of eighty-four!!"

“Oh my god, how do you spend such a high salary??”

"I have long heard that Yi Zhonghai has good skills, but I didn't expect him to be so powerful??"

The praises around him made Yi Zhonghai feel a little carried away.

Director Wen of the Ministry of Metallurgy was ordered to be responsible for the grading work in the steel rolling mill. At this time, he saw that a seventh-level worker had finally emerged, and his face showed a look of satisfaction.

He walked down the examination platform, walked to Yi Zhonghai and shook hands with him: "Comrade Yi Zhonghai, your skills are very good. Work hard and you will be able to achieve your goals in the future."

"Thank you, leader. I will work hard in the future and work hard to be promoted!! Contribute to the country!!" Yi Zhonghai's face turned red with excitement.

Today can be said to be his peak since entering the steel rolling mill! !

Director Wen patted Yi Zhonghai on the shoulder and prepared to leave after being polite.

Turning his head, he saw something on the console next to Yi Zhonghai, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
