Siheyuan: From Being Called Shazhu

At noon, a meal was eaten in the canteen of the compound. Ostensibly it was a "welcome banquet" for He Yuzhu returning from a business trip, but in fact, it was a "welcome banquet" to celebrate He Yuzhu's discharge from the hospital.

Looking at the children that He Yushui had taken care of in the compound for the past month who were eagerly waiting for their king to return and ascend the throne, He Yuzhu happily waved his hand and let He Yushui go play.

"Let's go too, so we can finish this and stand at attention sooner rather than later."

After dinner, Master Sun took He Yuzhu to their factory.

Watching the car heading east, He Yuzhu didn't care.

After all, the east side of Beijing has always been a gathering place for factories.

Even after leaving Dongzhimen, He Yuzhu didn't care.

However, the car drove directly into Lou's Steel Rolling Mill, and He Yuzhu was stunned.

"Master, didn't you say that a new factory was established? How come Lou's Steel Rolling Mill is here?"

"Yes, that's it. Our factory is built inside the steel rolling mill."

Master Sun seemed very calm, but He Yuzhu was not.

"Master, is it appropriate for our factory to build a new factory inside the Lou's Steel Rolling Mill?"

"Hey, what's wrong with this? There is no hot rolling in their factory, all cold rolling, and our factory is responsible for hot rolling. Isn't this a perfect complement? Besides, this place is suitable."

As he spoke, Master Sun pointed outside the factory.

"The place we just walked through is the main entrance of the factory. There is a railway track at the entrance. Isn't it convenient to transport goods? Besides, there is a bus station opposite the back door of the factory. It is also fast to assemble small items by bus, isn't it?"

"No, Master, I'm not talking about the location. I'm talking about the nature. Lou's Steel Rolling Mill is a private enterprise, and our factory is directly under the military. Is it appropriate to put them together?"

He Yuzhu also knew that in a few years, the steel mill would become a state-owned enterprise through public-private partnership.

However, He Yuzhu now subconsciously rejects Lou’s Steel Rolling Mill, and no one knows why.

"You said this."

Master Sun didn't care even more now.

"Although Lou's Steel Rolling Mill is a private enterprise now, it won't be long before it becomes a public-private partnership. Now, the higher-ups have sent an audit team to move in. Otherwise, I wouldn't have chosen to build a factory here."

"So early?"

He Yuzhu muttered subconsciously.

After all, the play begins in the year 65.

Whether Lou’s Steel Rolling Mill is private or public has long been determined.

According to the speculation of many netizens, it was only after the official public-private partnership in 55 that Lou became a state-owned enterprise.

Otherwise, we couldn't talk about Lou Bancheng in the play and say that he enjoyed dividends from the steel mill.

But now, only 53 years later, the audit team has already entered.

Even if the review was slower, the steel mill would have become a state-owned enterprise through public-private partnership in 54.

This. . .

He Yuzhu couldn't figure it out for a moment, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

After all, those are TV dramas and novels.

And now, it’s reality.

"Come on, I'll take you to the file so you can get your labor protection supplies."

The car stopped in front of a newly built office building.

Master Sun pushed open the car door and took He Yuzhu into the director's office of the Labor and Personnel Department on the second floor.

"Hello, Chief."

As soon as he entered the door, the director of the Labor and Personnel Department saw that it was Master Sun and immediately stood up and saluted.

After Master Sun returned the greeting, he pushed He Yuzhu over.

"Xiao Song, this is He Yuzhu, my apprentice. I brought him here to create a file."

"Hello, Director Song. I'm He Yuzhu."

He Yuzhu also bowed as a greeting to Director Song.

"Hello, Comrade Yuzhu."

Director Song may have greeted He Yuzhu with a smile for the sake of Master Sun.

Then, he asked the two to sit on the reception stool next to him and poured some water for them. Director Song then acted in a businesslike manner, took out the factory employee registration book from the filing cabinet next to him, and took out a new file bag, and then returned to his seat.

As soon as Master Sun saw Director Song's expression, he knew that Director Song had misunderstood.

"Oh, Xiao Song, I forgot to tell you that Zhuzi is the second-class hero who transferred to our unit a while ago. He has been recuperating in the hospital for a while and didn't have time to report here. Look, he was just discharged from the hospital this morning, and he hasn't even packed up yet, but he's here to report."

"Ok?"

Director Song was stunned for a moment after listening to what Master Sun said.

Then he looked He Yuzhu up and down in disbelief.

But the businesslike look on his face no longer existed.

"Seeing is believing. No wonder there's an old saying that a good teacher produces good students. Comrade Yuzhu looks so handsome, and I know he must be good."

As Director Song spoke, he pushed aside the new file bag on the table and took out a somewhat old file from the drawer.

"Look, Comrade Yuzhu, we have already received your file and are just waiting for you to come and register."

"Haha, haha, thank you Director Song."

For a moment, He Yuzhu didn't know what to say about Director Song's change of expression and could only respond with a smile.

"Okay, Xiao Song, you register Zhuzi first, I'll be out first."

Master Sun saw that the process was about to begin, so he prepared to go out and avoid it for a while.

But Director Song stopped Master Sun.

"No, Commander. There are still a few issues in Comrade Yuzhu's file that require your proof."

"Then you ask first. After you're done, I'll leave."

When Master Sun heard that he was needed to provide proof, he was no longer in a hurry to leave.

Director Song opened He Yuzhu's file, took out the files inside, and asked Master Sun about his personal experience.

"Commander, in Comrade He Yuzhu's file, it is written that in October 50, he was transferred from the Public Security Committee where you were at the time to the District Committee for his meritorious service in uncovering a spy case. Is that true?"

"Yes, in September of 50, Zhuzi and his colleagues from the Public Security Committee and the Public Security Bureau cracked the case. Many people knew about it at the time."

Master Sun thought about it and nodded affirmatively.

Director Song wrote and drew for a while, then started asking questions again.

"Then, when did Comrade He Yuzhu start working under you? There is no record in the files. There is no record even of when he went to the Public Security Committee."

"Well, it seems that Zhuzi has been with me for about 4 or 5 years. Was it 48 or 49?"

Now, Master Sun was in a dilemma.

It's been 4 or 5 years now, and I can't tell for sure.

"Zhu Zi, when did you start following me?"

"It seems that I started following you before the Chinese New Year in 49. Later, the Public Security Committee was established, and I followed you into the Committee."

Although He Yuzhu was very sure that he started following Master Sun on the afternoon of January 49, 1.

However, He Yuzhu was cautious and did not say the exact time.

Even the time periods are being confused, with the lunar New Year being used to confuse the solar calendar.

Mainly, he wanted to see if he could move the start time of work forward, preferably to 48 years.

The main reason is that He Yuzhu wants to retire in the future and have a better reputation - retired.

Although He Yuzhu is sure that according to the familiar policy, those who started working and enjoyed cadre treatment before September 49, 9 can enjoy leave and recuperation at retirement age, which is referred to as retirement.

Even if we go by the actual situation, he, He Yuzhu, started working in the Public Security Committee on February 2, which can be considered as retirement.

However, He Yuzhu had to be on guard against the retirement line in some areas being stuck at liberation.

Just like the Northeast.

As we all know, Northeast China was liberated early, and almost all of it was liberated in 48.

This resulted in many veterans and cadres being unable to enjoy retirement benefits despite being eligible for them, according to the implementation standards of January 49, 1. (Note 1)

He Yuzhu had encountered this kind of situation when he ran a restaurant.

Now that there is a chance to defend, why not try it?

Anyway, there are two dates, January 1nd and February 22rd, as the final guarantee, so what is there to be afraid of?

Here, Master Sun also remembered it when he heard He Yuzhu say "before the New Year".

"Yes, I remember now. Zhuzi started helping me with this and that before the Chinese New Year in 49."

"Wow, I didn't expect Comrade He Yuzhu to have such a long career. He has been following the leader since he was 13 or 4 years old."

Director Song was taking notes while speaking with a smile.

"Can you still remember the exact date?"

"this...."

All of a sudden, Master Sun and He Yuzhu looked at each other, and no one could remember.

Of course, Master Sun really couldn’t remember.

As for He Yuzhu, he must be pretending.

After pretending for a long time, He Yuzhu raised his head "hesitantly".

"I'm sorry, Director Song, I really can't remember it. How about this, just write December 48, 12, it's easier to remember."

"Yeah, we don't need those few days."

Master Sun also nodded in agreement, then looked at Director Song.

"Just follow what Zhuzi said, record it on December 48, 12."

"Okay, Chief."

Director Song nodded in agreement, then wrote a few words and looked up at Master Sun.

"Commander, you still need to sign and press your hand in the witness column." (Note 2)

"it is good."

Master Sun stood up happily and signed his name on the file.

"Okay, Comrade He Yuzhu, your file has been processed and I have now officially filed it."

While Director Song was sorting out He Yuzhu's file, he began to introduce the job to He Yuzhu.

"Comrade He Yuzhu, due to the special nature of our factory, after you were transferred from the district committee and district office, you will no longer be subject to the 52th grade and 3th level of local cadres that was implemented in March 10, and will instead be subject to the 24th grade and 10st level of the military. Now, you will be classified as the eighth grade and second level, with a monthly allowance of 21 yuan."

"Ok?"

He Yuzhu was puzzled.

Although, he was lower in rank than Master Sun in the district committee.

However, at least according to the 24th level, he is also a 22nd level clerk, and he still gets 27 per month. (Note 5000)

Now, wow, listening to the level, yes, it has increased, it has increased to level eight, level two, almost level 20.

But the salary has dropped, only 7 yuan a month.

What is this enough for?

He Yuzhu was just about to ask if Director Song was wrong and that the monthly amount should be 76 when Master Sun slapped him on the thigh.

"What's the matter, Comrade He Yuzhu, do you have any questions?"

Hearing He Yuzhu's question, Director Song stopped and looked up at He Yuzhu.

Although He Yuzhu didn't understand, seeing Master Sun slightly shaking his head at him, He Yuzhu also shook his head.

"No, Director Song, please continue."

"Oh, okay, I'll continue then. If you don't understand anything, you can interrupt me at any time."

As he spoke, Director Song opened the employee registration book and continued to speak to He Yuzhu while recording.

"After Comrade He Yuzhu was transferred here, he was assigned to the Security Department. Due to the policy on "Financial Security" in May this year, Comrade He Yuzhu, please tell the public that he is the economic police of our factory. As for the specific position..."

Director Song said this, looked up at Master Sun, and then continued:

"The specific position is a firearms manager. The specific working hours are long day shifts, with Sundays and holidays off. There are one or two night shifts per week, and the specific night shift hours depend on the team division."

"Okay, Song, I'll talk to Zhuzi about the rest."

Master Sun stood up and interrupted Director Song's introduction.

Although He Yuzhu didn't know why, he still stood up.

"Well, with you as the factory director, I, a half-baked HR manager, won't make mistakes."

Director Song also stood up with a smile.

"As for Comrade He Yuzhu's allotted personal belongings, I'll have my men prepare them and send them to you later."

"Okay, have someone send it to my office later. If I'm not here, just give it to Xiao Li."

As he spoke, Master Sun brought He Yuzhu out of the office.

After leaving the office building, He Yuzhu couldn't help but speak when there was no one around.

"Master, what's going on with my level and my salary? I can't really only get 7 a month, right?"

"Silly boy, you can get 7, so just be happy about it."

Master Sun patted He Yuzhu's shoulder with a smile.

"That's not salary, that's allowance."

"What do you mean?"

He Yuzhu probably understood it, but he still asked.

"It means that your food, clothing, and even housing will all be provided for you. You don't have to spend a penny. You are like me, on a supply system, not a lump sum system anymore."

When Master Sun said this, He Yuzhu was stunned.

He was originally a district administrator of the district committee and knew a lot about policies.

Since 50, no, to be exact, as Director Song just said, starting from March 52, there was no supply system at all, not to mention those who joined the job later, and it was all fixed-price contract system.

Even the original supply system is slowly being transformed into a lump-sum contract system.

But now, He Yuzhu has become a supply system?

This. . .

For a moment, He Yuzhu didn't know whether it was because of Master Sun's great power or the special nature of this factory.

(Note 1: This is not absolute, it depends on the region. In some cities in the Northeast, in the 80s and 90s, the date of December 48, 12 was implemented for a while. Later, after 31, September 08, 49 began to be uniformly implemented.)

(Note 2: At that time, if a person had a certain level (above company commander), it would require 3-5 people to prove and authenticate each other. Here, I will simplify it.)

(Note 3: The salary system actually has many stages. For example, from 50 to 54, especially after March 52, the local government established a system of 3 grades and 22 levels. At that time, the 28nd level was a clerk, and the monthly salary was equivalent to 55 yuan. The military was divided into grades and levels, which was also the standard for awarding ranks in .

In 54, with the reform of the wage system, the local level was changed from 14 to 17, namely "big contract responsibility system" and "earning work points in the city". In this level, 17-22 is the chief and deputy section chief, 22-26 is the chief and deputy section chief, 28-29 is the section clerk, and and are the handyman. This is also the first time that handyman is included in the administrative level.

As for the official administrative level of level 56 that came into effect on June 6, 16, it is the real administrative level known to everyone.

The wages for this period were not determined at the beginning, but were determined after three stages of adjustment: 58, 63, and 66, and were used until 76-78.
