Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

After the fitter assessment was over, the forging assessment began, with two people participating, namely Liu Haizhong and Master Chen.

In the first round of theoretical examination, both of them had no problem, and in the second round of practical assessment, the drawing of lots began again.

Liu Haizhong seemed to be very lucky today as he drew a part that was not difficult to obtain. It was really enviable.

"Haha! Luck, luck."

Liu Haizhong said proudly, as if he had already passed the 8th-level worker exam.

The parts that Master Chen drew continued Master Ma's luck from the previous round and were directly of the highest difficulty level, which was not bad.

"Master Liu, I'm not as good as you. How about you show us your style and let's switch?" Master Chen also made a rare joke to ease the tense atmosphere.

“Ah~! No no no…! I can’t break the rules.”

"Hahaha………!"

Liu Haizhong's answer immediately caused laughter from the audience.

When Director Yang saw the result of the draw, he was so happy that he shouted "good" three times.

Isn't this a remake of the last round? Is there going to be another double-barreled success this time?

If successful, the Red Star Steel Mill will become the steel mill with the most level 8 workers, even far surpassing the First Steel Mill.

However, it seemed as if God was playing a joke on Master Chen. The difficulty was high, so it would be fine if he failed.

Your bangs are the easiest, so why can’t you succeed?

Seeing Director Yang’s gloomy face, Liu Haizhong felt very annoyed. It was just one step away, why was it always me who got hurt?

At this moment, he seemed so decadent, which was in stark contrast to his smug look when he was drawing the lots just now.

You know, if you fail today, you don’t know if you will have such an opportunity next time. After all, the probability of drawing low-difficulty parts is very low, and they are basically above intermediate level.

With the failure of the assessment for the two of them, it seemed that all the good luck for the day had run out. In the assessments for other types of work, they all ended in failure.

Director Yang had no choice but to accept this reality. Fortunately, two of them were successful, which was a blessing in disguise.

Among these two people, the most promising one is of course Master Ma. He completed the difficult intermediate parts so well that he is a well-deserved pillar of the steel rolling mill.

As for Yi Zhonghai?

Although there was a little bit of water in it, it was successful in the end and it was also good for the factory's reputation.

Therefore, after the assessment was over, the factory radio began to broadcast a series of announcements.

Now Yi Zhonghai and Master Ma became completely famous. In an instant, even the toilet cleaners knew their names.

At lunchtime, when Yi Zhonghai came to the cafeteria to get his meal, the workers who knew him all praised him and congratulated him.

"Master Yi, congratulations! You have become one of the few level 8 workers in our factory."

"Old Yi, you passed the 8th-level fitter exam today. How's that going? The brothers will go celebrate with you tonight."

"Yes, yes! Let's celebrate for Master Yi tonight."

"..."

Hearing a few people making a fuss behind him, Yi Zhonghai smiled.

These gentlemen are the big shots in their respective workshops, so it doesn't matter if I invite them to dinner. It's a good opportunity to improve his reputation. Why not do it?

"Thank you! Thank you everyone! I'm so grateful for your appreciation, Master. I'm sure it's too late today, how about coming to my house tomorrow night? That's just so I can get my wife ready."

"You are serious, Lao Yi. It's difficult everywhere now. I'm just joking. Don't take it seriously."

Master Yao, who was the first to propose the celebration, said this a little embarrassedly.

"It's okay, Master Yao. Even if it's difficult now, we still don't need this meal. Don't you think this makes sense? Unless... unless you don't give me face and look down on me, Yi Zhonghai."

Yi Zhonghai said pretending to be angry.

Master Yao feels a little regretful now. If he had known earlier, he would not have been so mean. Now he has no choice but to agree.

"Okay! Since Master Yi is so hospitable, I will definitely be there tomorrow night."

"Master Yi, I will go there tomorrow night too."

"Master Yi is indeed a real man in our old city of Sijiu. He is open and honest in his actions. ..."

"..."

This scene of everyone praising the moon was seen by Liu Haizhong who had just come in.

At this moment, he was neither in a position to advance nor retreat, and could only curse in his heart, "Damn it, you came at the wrong time, why are you everywhere?"

Yi Zhonghai also saw Liu Haizhong, and for some reason, he took the initiative to say hello.

"Lao Liu, I was just about to look for you! I'll host you tomorrow night, how about having dinner at my place? It just so happens that you know all these chefs, so you're not strangers."

"Yes, yes! Master Liu, there are only a few of us, and we are all acquaintances. There is nothing to worry about. You won't be rude to us, right?" Master Yao quickly chimed in.

Anyway, we should cheat as many people as possible now. If we get scolded later, we can bear it together with more people.

Although Liu Haizhong disliked Yi Zhonghai, the hypocrite, he couldn't refuse in the face of so many people present, so he had to say it against his will.

"Old Yi, first of all, I want to congratulate you on passing the 8th-level worker exam and winning honor for our factory. As for eating?"

Liu Haizhong thought about it for a while, and finally said helplessly: "I will definitely go tomorrow night."

"Okay! Thank you, Lao Liu, for your support." Yi Zhonghai said with satisfaction.

After the few people made the appointment, they didn’t chat much, but started queuing up for food.

After finishing their meal, they chatted for a while before returning to their workshops.

Liu Haizhong was wondering on his way back to the workshop.

Ever since Yi Zhonghai stopped being a big shot, the two have had little interaction.

But what did Yi Zhonghai want to do today? Was he trying to mock him? But it didn't seem like that. How could he mock someone and then call them to eat?

After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Haizhong was almost at the workshop, but he still couldn't figure it out.

Since you can’t figure it out, just don’t think about it. Just deal with it as the time comes!

In the evening, it was time for the workers to get off work, and many people had already gathered at the entrance of the courtyard.

The news that Yi Zhonghai had passed the examination for Grade 8 worker had already reached Siheyuan by noon.

At this time, Aunt Yi also took Yi Xiaofang and Yi Xiaobao to the door to welcome Yi Zhonghai's return.

As for the other people in the courtyard, while they were envious, they were also chatting with Aunt Yi, hoping to follow behind and get some benefits.

You know, a level 8 worker has a very important position in the factory. Sometimes, even the factory director has to give him some face just because he says a few words.

After a while, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong returned to the courtyard together.

"Old Yi! Congratulations! This time, the clouds have finally cleared and the moon has appeared. You have finally got what you wanted. Haha!"

Yan Bugui, who loved to take advantage of others, was the first to step forward and congratulate in order to seize the opportunity.

"thanks, thanks!"

"Uncle Yi, congratulations! In the future at the factory, I hope you will take care of me since we live in the same courtyard."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

"Uncle Yi, congratulations on passing the 8th-level worker exam. You have to help take care of our wife in the future."

"Good good."

"..."

"..."

Liu Haizhong, who came back with them, was already numb at this time. This Yi Zhonghai passed the exam and passed the 8th grade worker exam. Why did he feel more awesome than him, the second uncle?

Is this a mistake?
