Siheyuan: I live next door to Xu Damao, my last name is Cao

"Of course, there are rewards and punishments. Yi Zhonghai is fully responsible for this accident. We also need to severely criticize such workers."

Director Yang changed the subject and looked at Yi Zhonghai, questioning him very seriously.

"Yi Zhonghai, do you have anything to explain about this accident? Why did you hide the parts? Why did you install the machine so randomly?"

Yi Zhonghai was dumbfounded, not knowing what to do. Could he say that he did not listen carefully to the engineer's explanation? Or was it that Cao Wei was slandering him?

No, no, Cao Wei had just repaired the machine and was the most popular person in the workshop, and was appreciated by so many leaders. He could not bite back now, otherwise, based on Wang Jianguo's temper, he would definitely criticize him harshly, so he could only bow his head and admit his mistake.

"I'm sorry, Director Yang, Director Wang, I didn't listen carefully to the engineer's explanation this morning because of my personal reasons. I also trusted my own judgment too much, which led to the machine failure. I'm really sorry."

Yi Zhonghai's apology was very sincere, but what was the use?

"Apologize now, what the hell were you doing before? You gave me so many chances and you didn't admit it, and now you're saying this bullshit again."

Wang Jianguo was very angry. He said, "Apologies are useless, so what do we need the police for?"

It’s all because of Yi Zhonghai that their new machine broke down. What’s the point of doing all these unnecessary things now?

Wang Jianguo knew very clearly that Yi Zhonghai didn’t know he was wrong, but he was afraid.

People around were talking about it.

"I didn't expect that Yi Zhonghai, a level 7 fitter, would be so poor. He knew it was necessary but didn't listen. He still insisted on installing it. He is really more of a hindrance than a help."

"Yes, yes. If it weren't for Cao Wei's serious listening and strong learning ability, our workshop would have been embarrassed this time."

Each workshop has its own production tasks, and during the period there are various competitions. Although they are not openly displayed, they are secretly competing with each other in private.

It would be really embarrassing if Yi Zhonghai really messed up this matter.

"I think this Yi Zhonghai is not a good guy. He must have been sent here to deliberately disrupt the production in our factory."

"I think this Yi Zhonghai is an enemy spy who deliberately damaged our machines."

"That's not entirely true. Yi Zhonghai has been working in our factory for quite a while. He's a level 7 fitter, so he's been here much longer than us."

"That's no use. We didn't cause such a big mess."

"Be careful or he'll make things difficult for you later."

"Whoever is afraid of him, come if you have the guts."

When Yi Zhonghai heard people in the workshop say this about him, his face turned blue and purple, looking extremely ugly.

Some people are indignant and outraged at what Yi Zhonghai did. Some people can't stand Yi Zhonghai and want to add insult to injury. Only a few people speak up for Yi Zhonghai.

Qin Huairu was among them, just watching silently. Now Yi Zhonghai was like a fox covered in smell, and anyone who came in contact with him would get smelly.

Yi Zhonghai was being attacked by so many people, and it was useless for her to say anything, so she just watched silently.

But Cao Wei is really powerful. Qin Huairu looked at Cao Wei with admiration.

He was just a fourth-level fitter, but he was able to repair machines that no one in the entire workshop could repair.

Director Yang looked at Yi Zhonghai. This guy was really a bad apple that spoiled the whole barrel. It was because of him that the machine was damaged. How should he be punished?

"Yi Zhonghai, you have been working in our steel mill for quite some time."

"Almost thirty years." Yi Zhonghai said with his head down.

"Thirty years, that's longer than the time I've been at the steel mill." Director Yang sighed, "For the mistake you made this time, I can just fire you from the steel mill, do you know that?"

Yi Zhonghai stopped talking. He couldn't really fire himself.

If I really get fired, it will be a waste of time.

However, Director Yang changed the subject and said, "How many thirty years can a person have in his life? Seeing that you have worked hard in the steel mill for so many years, even if you have no merit, I will not fire you this time."

The mistake Yi Zhonghai made this time was very serious. If Director Yang was willing, he could fire him. However, he felt that there was no need for that for the time being. Yi Zhonghai was so old and had no family left. If he lost his job, it would be like pushing him into a desperate situation, which would be too inhumane.

"You are a level seven fitter now, right? You have made such a big mistake, so the punishment must be heavier. So I will demote you by one level, fine you one year's salary, and you will not be able to take the exam again in the future. Are you satisfied with this punishment?" asked Director Yang.

Yi Zhonghai quickly said: "I made such a big mistake, I am willing to accept the punishment."

He still had some lingering fears, luckily he was not fired directly, otherwise he would have been ruined.

What followed was heartache. I had finally become a level 7 fitter, and was even preparing to take the level 8 exam next year. Then, all of a sudden, I was demoted to a level 6 fitter, and was never allowed to take the exam again. How could such a punishment not make people heartbroken?

However, seeing the angry faces of the people around him, Yi Zhonghai stopped talking. Many people around him were indignant that he was not fired.

Forget it, just be content. It’s good enough that you didn’t get fired.

Yi Zhonghai could only comfort himself in this way.

Cao Wei looked at Yi Zhonghai with gloating eyes. This guy really lost more than he gained. He deserved this fate.

This punishment will really make Yi Zhonghai feel sad for a long time.

Directly demote his work grade, fine him one year's salary, and never be able to take the grade test again. This means Yi Zhonghai will have to work as a level 6 fitter until retirement.

It's a pity. It would be better if two more levels were deducted. After all, a level six fitter can earn about 70 yuan a month.

"Then there is the reward for Comrade Cao Wei. His contribution in repairing the machine this time is very great. The one-year salary of Yi Zhonghai that was fined will be directly compensated to you. This one-year salary is based on the seventh-level fitter. And there are other rewards, but I won't tell you about them for now." Director Yang patted Cao Wei's shoulder happily. This kid is really good. Fortunately, he let him have a try.

"This is not good."

Cao Wei pretended to be a little embarrassed, but he was actually very happy.

Yi Zhonghai's annual salary is 84.5 yuan a month, which means more than 1,000 yuan in twelve months. This is a windfall, and it takes a long time for him to sign in to the system.

"What's wrong with it? Just take it. This is a reward from the factory director. Our factory has always been clear about rewards and punishments." Li Huaide said with a smile.

"Thank you, Director, and thank you, Director."

Cao Wei said with a smile.

I'm so happy, earning more than a thousand a day. I wish I could be like this every day in the future.

Of course, Cao Wei knew that this was impossible.

After all, earning more than a thousand yuan a day was already an extremely impressive income even before he traveled through time, let alone in this era.

"Let's go check out the progress of other workshops. There should be quite a few that have been installed. If not, I'll have to trouble you to work harder."

Director Yang said to Cao Wei beside him with a smile.

He was planning to make important use of Cao Wei, and such a talent could not be buried.
