Siheyuan: Starting from 1952

After solving Chen Xingyao's problem, Lu Juemin went to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill with his letter of introduction.

2 As they got closer to the Red Star Steel Mill, Lu Juemin became more and more uneasy.

After walking for about an hour, he finally stood at the gate of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.

The scale of the factory seemed particularly large, which reminded Lu Juemin of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill described in the book, which was also particularly large, with about 10,000 employees alone.

This is the end.

Lu Juemin has basically confirmed that the world he has traveled to is the world in the play "Love in the Courtyard".

He couldn't help but feel a headache.

Just thinking about those beasts made him feel sick...

But then I thought, I am just living in the same world as them, not under the same roof.

No matter how beastly they are, they can't be beastly to me, right?

Just don't get the house in that yard when you get one.

After confirming his idea, Lu Juemin walked towards the guard and explained his purpose to him.

The guard glanced at Lu Juemin and said lazily, "Young comrade, you came at a bad time. The head of the personnel department is on a business trip and is not in the factory. Please come back another day!"

On business trip?

Lu Juemin frowned and asked, "Then do you know when the section chief will be back?"

"How can I, a small security guard, know what the section chief is doing? But..."

At this point, the guard stopped, raised his hand, rubbed his index finger and thumb together, and then continued, "But I can ask for you, I think I can find out."

Hey!

Lu Juemin immediately understood the guard's expression.

I’m afraid the news that the HR chief is on a business trip is false, and it’s true that he wants money.

It's really disgusting.

Even a gatekeeper has to use the little power he has to do these dirty things.

"Then I'll come back in a few days!"

After Lu Juemin said this, he turned around and left.

He didn't want to pamper such a person. Not to mention that he had no money, even if he did, he would not give the money to such a person.

Of course, he didn't leave rashly.

For such a big factory, he must not be the only security guard.

Wait until the security guard changes shift, then come and report to the HR department.

It's impossible that all the guards in this steel rolling mill are the same as this one?

Just right.

He could use the time when he was not staying in the city to go to the mountains and forests on the outskirts of the city, catch some game and earn some money.

Money can make a hero fail. There will be many places where you need to spend money in the future, so you must work hard to make more money.

Moreover, he now has a letter of recommendation in his hand, so he is not afraid of being questioned by the officers' association.

that's it.

Lu Juemin left the city and came to a nice-looking forest. Based on his experience as an "old hunter", he set some traps.

Next, all you have to do is wait for the prey to take the bait.

The night passed quickly.

The harvest was pretty good, we caught two wild rabbits and a pheasant in total.

After daybreak, he set up some more traps, then returned to Sijiu City and sold the prey he had obtained this time.

I took the money and went to find a small stall, ordered a bowl of plain noodles, and solved my stomach problem.

Afterwards, he went to the steel mill again to see if the same guard from yesterday was guarding the gate today.

Unfortunately, it’s still the same doorman today.

So he turned around and left the city again.

He lived like this for three days in a row.

Finally, on the fourth day, the steel mill's security guard was replaced by someone else.

People are different. This security guard is much better than the previous one.

When he heard that Lu Juemin was here to report to the Personnel Department, he was worried that he didn't know the direction of the Personnel Department, so he took the initiative to lead the way and brought Lu Juemin to the downstairs of the Personnel Department.

After thanking the security guard, Lu Juemin walked into the personnel department building.

The personnel department is not big, just a three-story building, so Lu Juemin easily found the section chief's office.

After knocking on the door, a loud voice immediately came from the room, "Come in."

When Lu Juemin heard the voice, he pushed the door and walked in.

In the office, he saw a middle-aged man who looked very elegant writing at his desk.

I guess this person is the personnel manager of the steel rolling mill.

Lu Juemin walked to the desk and said softly, "Hello, Section Chief. I'm here to report in."

Upon hearing this, Chen Tianhua put down the pen in his hand, slowly raised his head, and looked at him. "The young man looks quite energetic. Do you have a letter of introduction?"

"Yes." Lu Juemin took out the letter of introduction given to him by Zhao Guangtou from his pocket.

Chen Tianhua took the letter of introduction, glanced at it for a few seconds, and then smiled helplessly, "Why did this damn bald Zhao send people to my factory again..."

Hearing Chen Tianhua say this, Lu Juemin's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he couldn't get the job?

Fortunately, his worries were unnecessary.

Chen Tianhua put the letter of introduction aside, looked at Lu Juemin and asked, "Lu Juemin, right? We have fitters, welders, lathe operators, forgers, etc. in our factory... Which type of work do you want to do?"

"Well..."

Lu Juemin has never really thought about this issue.

A welder is responsible for welding, and this job hurts the eyes, so it is not very practical.

Lathe operators are like the assembly line workers in later generations. They are highly mechanized and not very good.

The blacksmith is the one swinging a sledgehammer, and with my physique, it is obviously not suitable for it.

As for fitter, it should be considered a highly skilled job.

There are rumors that a senior fitter can even rub a nuclear bomb with his hands.

Of course this is just a joke, but it is enough to show that the status of the fitter in the factory should be not low.

Just like the "old man" Yi Zhonghai in the Siheyuan, when he appeared in the TV series, he was an eighth-level fitter.

That guy is as majestic as he can be.

After thinking about it, Lu Juemin made a decisive decision: "Chief, I want to be a fitter!"

"Well, you have a good eye, young man!" Chen Tianhua nodded slightly, "Now that you have chosen the job, I will arrange for you to go through the entry procedures!"

"After successfully joining the company, in addition to the corresponding salary, the factory will also provide accommodation and meals."

"Chief, how can we get a housing allocation?" This is the issue that Lu Juemin is most concerned about.

Chen Tianhua replied: "According to the regulations of our factory, there are two ways to get a housing unit."

"First, if you work in our factory for two years, you will be eligible for housing!"

"Secondly, those who have made significant contributions to the factory can also be allocated housing after the factory has studied and decided."
