Chapter 314: Yu Family Earthquake

After hearing what Wang Gensheng said, Mr. Xu's face became even more serious.

"You are not a person who likes to joke. If you can say this, it must be a serious matter."

"Yes. After the founding of the country, we became our own masters and our lives became much better, but the population increased dramatically."

"The employment situation this year is very severe. In our neighborhood, there are suddenly more than 100 people waiting for employment arrangements. Even I have to assign 20 people to work."

"I've heard that."

"It's almost halfway through another semester. Next year, there will be even more graduates, but our factory can no longer accommodate so many people."

Old Xu raised his hand and stroked his long beard, closed his eyes, and recalled what Wang Gensheng had just said.

"You mean there might be trouble?"

Wang Gensheng suddenly raised his head, waved his hands and said, "Master, I didn't say anything, you can't put the blame on me."

This actually made Old Xu laugh, and he pointed at Wang Gensheng: "Okay, I feel more relieved that you can do this."

"I'm already an adult, what could possibly worry you? When are you going to move to the countryside? I'll call my family and ask the captain to find you a place to live."

Old Xu nodded slightly: "I know about this, but I still need to make some preparations and say goodbye to my old friends."

Wang Gensheng knew that he couldn't explain it in more detail, nor could he rush it any further.

As a latecomer, Wang Gensheng knows what kind of wave he will face next. As a person at present, being able to sense some changes in the atmosphere is already an extraordinary person.

If the timing and intensity of the incident were to be so precise, people would regard him as a monster, which would scare others even more.

Instead, you will become the target of everyone's attack.

There is still more than half a year left, and Wang Gensheng feels it is still in time.

After dinner, I said goodbye to Mr. Xu and returned to the steel mill to listen to Yu Yimiao's complaints.

"Teacher, my classmates have been saying lately that education is useless, but what can we do if we don't receive education?"

Yu Yimiao is still a student at the Academy of Fine Arts and will be graduating next year.

But the words and views she put forward represent the thoughts of more college students today.

It seems that a strong wind is indeed about to blow, but as a generation that is drifting in the wind, where should we go?

"Miaomiao, I heard that some places have college students with zero points. I wonder if there is such a situation in your college?"

"A college student with a score of 0, what did he study?"

"I don't even know what I'm learning, so there are so many people saying that learning is useless."

"However, knowledge changes destiny. Without sufficient knowledge accumulation, there are many things that you want to get started with, which is just a pipe dream."

"But I also think what they say makes sense. It's just like me now. As a student of an art academy, I don't know what use these things I have learned will be in my future work after graduation."

"There are many places where it can be used. For example, when I first came to the steel mill, I first wrote big blackboard newspapers, did ideological propaganda work for the workers, and created entertainment works."

"But,"

"No, but. There are still many places you haven't seen yet. For example, the gift boxes made in our bakery this year, with the Chang'e flying to the moon on them, didn't they come from your hands?"

"There is still a lot of room for development in advertising and film and television works. You can also draw some comic books to support your family. If your drawings are good, you can even publish them and sell them all over the country. How can you say that it is useless?"

The winter of that year was very cold, and work in the steel mill became much quieter.

Wang Gensheng was able to keep busy by running back and forth between the two.

He still had the industrial ticket that Deputy Director Li had given him last year when he was making things difficult for him, and he used it to buy some coal.

Industrial tickets are valid for one year in the long term, half a year in the short term, and any shorter period will be redeemed to Brother Yu.

Even if it has expired, Wang Gensheng is not afraid. His painting skills are more solid now, even without using Ma Liang's magic brush.

Even without the help of the system's painting aid, Wang Gensheng can still draw a decent industrial ticket.

(Most industrial vouchers are simple to make)

As long as he could solve the paper problem, the money he earned from drawing and reselling the bills would be enough to support his family.

Unfortunately, as a student of the Academy of Fine Arts, Wang Gensheng could not tell Yu Yimiao about this skill.

If the news leaks out and a large number of imitation bills are issued, causing a flood of bills on the market, it might really affect the national economy.

The 60s was the planned economy period, and there were too many bills, which flooded the market all at once, which definitely led to a shortage of material supplies.

By then, the social situation will become even worse.

The point is, there aren't many people who can achieve the skill of making the fake look real.

A big demonstration broke out after the Chinese New Year. Yu Yimiao was so scared that he didn't dare to go to school. He ran to Wang Gensheng's office and trembled.

He no longer had the heart to paint, and Wang Gensheng said to Yi Miao with a smile.

"The more this happens, the more you should stick to your own creations and not give up your skills."

“When others are not making progress, or are even going downhill, you are able to rise to the challenge and stand out more easily.”

The most direct result of this large-scale demonstration was that Yu Yimiao's father was dismissed from his post and exiled.

As a senior leader of the Ministry of Education, Yu's father must be held responsible for this matter.

He was ordered to stay at home and reflect, waiting for the organization's decision on him.

The work at hand also began to be gradually handed over.

The education sector was plunged into a state of frenzy this year. Yu Yimiao and Yu Ge were deeply shocked and looked depressed.

As the leader's secretary, Senior Brother Liu Hualin naturally suffered a greater blow than the other two.

Not only do they have to stay at home and reflect, they are also dragged out to march on the streets.

Even having food at home became a problem, and Wang Gensheng often relied on his cousin, Deputy Director Liu, for help. He also asked Brother Liu to bring him condolences.

It’s not that he didn’t want to visit, but Sister Xu heard that Wang Gensheng was going to visit, so she rode her bicycle on the road to block him back.

Wang Gensheng couldn't bear it any longer and finally went to his teacher Xu's house to complain.

With the experience of my senior brother as a lesson, I didn’t give the teacher a chance to explain this time.

He took Sister Xu's urgently needed things at home and stuffed them into Wang Gensheng's tractor.

Let Ergang drive the tractor to take the master and his wife to Wangjia Village to stay temporarily at Wang Gensheng's home.

After thinking about it, to be on the safe side, I copied my master's handwriting and wrote a letter to Sister Xu to sever ties with her, just in case.

The handwriting was so authentic that it was hard to tell, and Sister Xu was stunned.

After finishing all this, they returned to the small canteen in the steel rolling mill to eat at noon. Yu Ge and Yu Yimiao were sighing while eating.

He cried out for justice for the injustice his father had suffered and even wanted to appeal to his higher-ups.

"Oh my god, are you delivering the goods yourself?"

Wang Gensheng pulled him over and slapped Yu Ge twice in the face in a hurry.

"Brother Yu, face the reality. Your family is counting on you now. If you don't calm down now, your family will really be in trouble!"

"If you dare to come and argue, they will find an excuse to attack you, implicate you, and make you lose your job at the supply and marketing cooperative. What will your family eat and drink in the future?"
