Siheyuan: Traveling through three years to gain the power of a palm

"Secondly, the factory has decided to appoint Comrade Jiang Daniu as the workshop director of the Forging Workshop 1 of the Steel Rolling Mill.

Also, after the New Year, the new workshop at the steel mill will officially open, and they'll be recruiting workers. The factory plans to offer you a job. Here's the letter of introduction; just fill in your personal information."

Jiang Fan looked at Director Chen and didn't dare to take it.

“This quota is taken from me, and it can be regarded as a personal subsidy for you.

Don't refuse yet. I'm going to retire next year anyway, and I don't really care about factory matters right now. It doesn't matter who gets this position, just take it.

"Being able to do something good for the factory before retirement means that the factory director's work has not been in vain."

Director Chen took a sip of tea and said, "Besides, if I don't give you something good, Old Wei might tear down the door of my house."

At this point, Jiang Fan didn't say anything more and put the things away.

"buckle"

"Enter."

A middle-aged man, nearly 1.80 meters tall and with a scar on his face, came in. Jiang Fan remembered his name as Li Weiguo, the head of the steel mill's security department.

"Director, it's done."

"Give it to him."

"Comrade Jiang Fan, this is the certificate the factory director asked me to issue you."

Li Weiguo took out a document and handed it to Jiang Fan. Jiang Fan took it and saw that it was a gun certificate. With it, Jiang Fan could truly and legally own a gun.

"Director Chen, Section Chief Li..."

"Here, stop dithering. If you really want to thank me, bring me two bottles of the wine you gave to that old Russian. I don't know where you got such a good thing, but you just gave it away like that. It's such a waste."

Director Chen smacked his lips, as if reminiscing about something. Li Weiguo also looked at Jiang Fan with shining eyes. What soldier doesn't like wine?

"Okay, I'll send a few bottles over to you and Section Chief Li tomorrow."

Jiang Fan did not hesitate. In the past six months, the system gave him dozens of boxes of wine.

"As long as you have the intention, Chief Li, take him to practice shooting. Don't be embarrassed if you don't know how to use a gun."

"Yes, Director. Come with me, Comrade Jiang Fan."

Chapter 32: Gun Practice

Security Department Training Office.

"Come on, Brother Jiang, you already understand insurance. Now I will teach you how to use a gun."

Li Weiguo took Jiang Fan back to the security department and took out an identical Makarov pistol and hundreds of rounds of ammunition from the warehouse.

As an important unit in the city of Sijiu, the steel rolling mill had extremely strong firepower to defend it, and even pulling out two cannons would not be a problem.

"Makarov pistol, eight-round capacity. While ensuring accuracy, the effective range is fifteen to twenty meters."

While he was speaking, Li Weiguo had already disassembled and reassembled the pistol.

"Brother Jiang, have you ever heard of the three-point line?"

"Well, eyes, crosshairs, and targets."

Jiang Fan nodded, he knew this.

"That's all, Brother Jiang. My marksmanship isn't perfect, but I have a hit rate of about 70 to 80 percent.

Unless you are a natural sharpshooter, other people's high hit rates are all achieved by relying on bullets.

We didn’t have these conditions when we fought before, but we do now.

Watch my stance and grip, breathe steadily, and don't pull the trigger hard, be gentle, and be careful of the recoil."

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang"

Eight shots rang out, and the magazine was empty.

I took the target paper and looked at it. All of them were on target. Five shots hit the ten rings, and one shot each hit the seventh, eighth and ninth rings.

"Not bad, my marksmanship hasn't deteriorated. Brother Jiang, you come and try it."

"it is good."

Li Weiguo stood aside, looking at Jiang Fan, ready to speak when Jiang Fan made a mistake.

Jiang Fan held the gun in his right hand, closed his eyes and recalled Li Weiguo's posture in his mind.

"Relax, take a deep breath, and don't stress."

Li Weiguo was giving instructions from the side.

Five seconds later, Jiang Fan opened his eyes, raised his hand, aimed at the target, and pulled the trigger.

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang"

A wisp of green smoke came out of the muzzle, and another eight bullets were used up.

"All of them are on the list, nine rings, ten rings, half and half. Good fellow, Brother Jiang, you are really surprising! Is this really your first time touching a gun?"

"It was indeed my first time touching a gun, and I was quite excited just now."

Li Weiguo couldn't hide his surprise. He had never expected that Jiang Fan could achieve such a result in his first attempt at a gun.

"Brother Jiang, are you a natural-born sharpshooter?"

Li Weiguo couldn't help but ask.

"How would I know? I've never touched a gun before."

"Brother Jiang, come on, try again. We still have hundreds of bullets. Just shoot as much as you can. You'll be fine after you finish shooting. I'll reload for you."

Next, the sound of gunfire "bang bang bang" could be heard continuously in the training ground.

In the end, Jiang Fan almost hit the target every time he shot. Li Weiguo then took out other long guns and short guns in the warehouse and gave them to Jiang Fan, letting him shoot as hard as he could!

"Oh my God, I finally know what talent is!" Li Weiguo was stunned. He was shocked by Jiang Fan's talent for marksmanship.

In just one morning, Jiang Fan's shooting skills were already among the best in the army. However, it was only shooting skills, after all, not on the battlefield.

There are too many influencing factors on the battlefield. Unless you are a veteran, it is difficult for a recruit to perform well even if he has a high level of shooting skills.

"Brother Li, let's stop here for today. We've been fighting all morning and it's really tiring."

Jiang Fan shook his arms, pretending to be tired.

"Yeah, I was confused too. Seeing that you were so talented, I wanted to try more. I forgot about this. This time it's my fault. I apologize to you."

Li Weiguo slapped his forehead. He was so busy testing Jiang Fan's talent that he forgot about Jiang Fan's body.

"Nothing, it's my fault too. I want to fire two shots with each gun."

Jiang Fan was really happy. After living for so many years, he finally fulfilled his childhood dream today.

After confirming again and again that Jiang Fan had no intention of joining the army, Li Weiguo not only felt sorry for Jiang Fan's talent for marksmanship.

When leaving the Security Department, Li Weiguo took out another two hundred rounds of bullets from the warehouse and gave them to Jiang Fan, asking him to take them home to play with.

……

Facing the wind and snow, Jiang Fan returned to the courtyard.

Today is Little New Year, and everyone is busy cleaning and preparing New Year's goods.

There are not so many options for preparing New Year's goods at this time. Just buy some meat, candy, peanuts, melon seeds, etc. As for vegetables, don't even think about it, just radish and cabbage.

When Jiang Fan entered the yard, the third uncle rarely came over to ask him a question, even though he saw Jiang Fan carrying a bag.

Jiang Fan was still a little puzzled when he heard Xu Damao calling him.

"Brother Jiang Fan, you're back. I've been waiting for you for so long."

Xu Damao ran to Jiang Fan impatiently and seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

"Brother Damao, do you have something to talk to me about?"

"It's nothing serious, I just wanted to treat you to a meal?"

"Eat? Why did you think of treating me to a meal?"

Jiang Fan looked at Xu Damao, trying to see something from his expression.

"Of course I want to thank you, brother. You asked me to deliver something this morning, but it really made me lose face.

With that lineup this morning, even our head of the publicity department wasn't even qualified enough. But my brother was able to go. You know, I have to thank you very much, brother."

Xu Damao smiled with his eyes narrowed, and there was a hint of sincerity in his expression.

"Okay, what shall we eat?"

"Roast duck, Quanjude."

"I'll drop off my stuff when I get home and tell me."

Jiang Fan agreed and went home, leaving Xu Damao alone there laughing foolishly.

At this time, the third uncle Yan Bugui came over and said, "Da Mao, from what you said, you want to treat Jiang Fan to a meal?"

"Yes, Third Uncle, didn't you hear everything just now?"

"I didn't hear it, let's confirm it."

Yan Bugui didn't feel embarrassed. It was just a little ridicule and it couldn't hurt him.

"Da Mao, has Jiang Fan really been working as an interpreter for those old Russians at the factory these days?"

"How could this be false? My brother not only served as a translator, but also accompanied our factory leaders for dinner and drinks! This morning, those old Russians even gave Jiang Fan a gift."

"what gift?"

"Uncle San, you're asking too many questions."

Xu Damao rolled his eyes at Yan Bugui and said nothing more.

Seeing that he couldn't get any information out of Xu Damao, Yan Bugui returned. However, he was thinking that the steel mill might be hiring employees to buy new machinery, so this might be a good opportunity to solve the problem.

Jiang Fan returned to the house, put down his things, and told Shen Yue that he wanted to go out for dinner with Xu Damao.

"Second brother, on your way back, stop by the supply and marketing cooperative and buy some candy and melon seeds. I bought them two days ago and I've finished them."

"Okay, I see."

Jiang Fan agreed. In winter, melon seeds and dried fruits are always consumed the fastest. Once he sat down and ate a handful, he couldn't help but eat a second handful.

Jiang Fan and Xu Damao left the courtyard together. Because it was snowing, they did not ride bicycles, but just walked on the street.

……

At the steel mill, workers who had just finished lunch heard a broadcast.

"Dear fellow workers, please pay attention. I have an announcement to make. Comrade Jiang Daniu from Forging Workshop 1 of our factory has made outstanding contributions to the rolling mill due to his hard work, superb skills, and uncomplaining dedication. The factory leadership has decided to appoint Comrade Jiang Daniu as the workshop director of Forging Workshop 1. We hope that all workers will learn from Comrade Jiang Daniu and continue to contribute to the rolling mill! Over."

Chapter 33: Rising

The news that Jiang Daniu was qualified to be the workshop director was announced three times in a row, and almost everyone in the steel rolling mill heard it.

"Daniu, you're amazing! You were promoted to director without any fanfare!"

"Congratulations, Daniel. Don't forget about us when you become a director."

"Congratulations, Master, on your career!"

This is what Jiang Daniu's apprentice said. Jiang Daniu had the qualifications to accept apprentices before, but he only accepted about ten or so apprentices.

The lowest level is now a third-level blacksmith, and he has already become a master. However, like Jiang Ping'an, he is still learning forging technology from Jiang Daniu. The highest level is sixth level, and he has already become a master.

"What kind of career is that? I'm just a workshop director. It's all about making a greater contribution."

Jiang Daniu responded to everyone with a smile. He knew that he was most likely the workshop director because of his second son, Jiang Fan. But that didn't matter. It was only natural that the son should strive for success while the father enjoyed the happiness.

Forging Workshop 2. After hearing the news, Liu Haizhong was completely stunned.

"Jiang Daniu is the workshop director? How did Jiang Daniu become the workshop director? What makes Jiang Daniu the workshop director?"
