Zhang Zhiqiang went to the operating table, looked at the drawings and objects on the table, and started after he was ready.

The fifth-level fitter test assesses more sophisticated fitter skills, and the test will not end so quickly.

After half an hour.

Zhang Zhiqiang breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his head. Although the process was relatively smooth, it was his first practice after all, so he was still nervous.

Director Li and Zhang Qiang watched Zhang Zhiqiang's operation and nodded. Of course, Director Li certainly didn't understand it. He just saw Zhang Qiang nodding, so he nodded along so that he could look more sociable.

The two of them did not communicate. If Zhang Zhiqiang was distracted by their talking during the assessment, it would be a waste of time.

After Zhang Zhiqiang finished, Master Zhang came forward to inspect the finished product.

"Okay, okay, there is nothing wrong with this technique. It is true that heroes emerge young."

Master Zhang looked at Zhang Zhiqiang's finished product and praised it repeatedly.

However, Master Zhang, who strives for perfection, still found some flaws and deducted five points from Zhang Guoqiang, allowing him to pass the assessment with a score of 95.

"Okay, good. Congratulations, Zhiqiang. You are now a level 5 fitter. You are the youngest level 5 fitter in our factory."

Director Li exclaimed on the way back.

The Red Star Steel Rolling Mill is a large factory with tens of thousands of employees, and the youngest worker is a level five fitter, which shows its value.

Director Li became excited. Now he is a level 5 fitter. In the future, Zhang Zhiqiang might become the youngest level 6, level 7, or level 8 fitter.

Thinking of this, Director Li said to Zhang Zhiqiang: "Zhiqiang, go back and prepare well. With great ability comes great responsibility. It's time to give you more responsibilities."

Director Li’s words were very clear. Zhang Zhiqiang might not have understood them before, but now Zhang Zhiqiang certainly knew what was going on. It seemed that he would soon be the deputy team leader.

"Yes, I will definitely learn more from you, Director Li, stay true to my original aspiration, work hard, and contribute to the construction of our country."

Zhang Zhiqiang quickly said that this was not the time to be modest, and by the way, he secretly stuffed a pack of unopened Daqianmen cigarettes he had taken this morning into Director Li's pocket.

"You kid, you are still so young, don't do this again in the future."

Director Li scolded with a smile. Zhang Zhiqiang's words of thanks were also very obscure, but it was still pleasant to hear. He went back with his hands behind his back.

"Qiangzi, how is it?"

"Yeah, how's it going, Qiangzi?"

As soon as Zhang Zhiqiang returned, he was surrounded and asked about his assessment results.

As for Wan Heng, there are many people who have taken the assessment for level three fitter, but they have not returned yet.

Zhang Zhiqiang smiled and nodded, "Ninety-five points."

"Wow, Qiangzi is amazing. He passed the level 5 fitter test just like that."

"Congratulations, Qiangzi. Your salary will be fifty-eight yuan from now on."

"I'm going to treat you after I get my salary. You can't avoid it this time."

The atmosphere in Workshop 11 was lively and everyone congratulated Zhang Zhiqiang.

Zhang Zhiqiang also agreed to treat the guests, as the workers could not afford much food.

After a while, Wan Heng came back. He also passed the assessment and became a third-level fitter, with a monthly salary of 38 yuan. Everyone congratulated him again.

On the other side is workshop nine.

"How is it, Huairu?"

Yi Zhonghai looked at Qin Huairu expectantly.

Since Jia Dongxu's death, Qin Huairu took over and entered the steel rolling mill, and was taught personally by Yi Zhonghai.

But Qin Huairu was not interested in this at all. She felt that locksmith work was too tiring. Doing it too much would make her arms thicker and she would age faster, so she just slacked off every day.

The female workers in Workshop Nine all have short hair to make it easier for them to work, but Qin Huairu is different. She is a married widow, but she still has long braids like a girl of eighteen or nineteen, and she moves around among several men.

"Oh! From the looks of it, it's obvious that he failed the exam. What other possibilities are there?"

"That's right. It's been so long and the defective rate is so bad. If it could pass, I would have wanted to report it."

Before Qin Huairu could answer, two female workers from workshop nine started to mock her.

Before Qin Huairu came, Workshop 9 was not particularly good, but it was definitely not bad. However, after Qin Huairu came, the defective rate became frighteningly high, and the ranking of Workshop 9 dropped immediately. Yi Zhonghai still had to maintain it every day.

It can be said that everyone in Workshop Nine has suffered for a long time.

Qin Huairu didn't say anything either, just shook her head silently.

She is still an apprentice now. After another half year of work experience, she can become a first-class worker, so she doesn't want to work hard anymore.

"Haha, it's okay, just try harder in the next assessment."

Yi Zhonghai said this with a forced smile, but he was speechless in his heart.

The first-level worker assessment is as simple as a rock. As long as you put in your effort, you can pass it. Yi Zhonghai even began to doubt his own teaching level.

When teaching Jia Dongxu, he just couldn't get promoted to the second-level worker level. When teaching Qin Huairu, it was even worse, she couldn't even pass the assessment for the first-level worker level.

But seeing Qin Huairu's depressed face, Yi Zhonghai couldn't say anything harsh, after all, Qin Huairu was so beautiful.

The other workers were not so kind. They whispered to each other and glanced at Qin Huairu from time to time.

After a while.

"Dear comrades, please note that this level assessment has been successfully completed. The ones who have passed the assessment are: Level 1 Worker Wang Jianshe...

Second-level worker Peng Chen…………

Third-level worker Wan Heng…………

Level 4 worker Zhao Aiguo…………

Level 5 worker Zhang Zhiqiang…………

…………

Let us give warm applause to those who have passed the assessment and express our heartfelt wishes.”

The announcement was made three times in a row, and everyone heard the factory broadcast, including Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu felt even worse. She was still an apprentice, but others were level 5 fitters, earning around 60 yuan a month, right? How could one person spend all that?

Qin Huairu sighed and her mind became active. Zhang Zhiqiang became a fifth-level fitter at the age of 20. His future achievements are limitless. Maybe he can become an eighth-level fitter like the old man, with a salary of 99 yuan a month.

If I marry him, my three children will definitely not have to worry about food and drink, and they will be able to grow up smoothly. I also won’t have to worry about finding a job and getting married in the future.

What Qin Huairu is thinking about now is how to get in touch with Zhang Zhiqiang, because the relationship between the two families was not very good after the last incident.

My mother-in-law is also a problem. When I went back yesterday, I heard Jia Zhang cursing Zhang Zhiqiang madly for not buying things for her and making her embarrassed in front of the neighbors.

After hearing that Zhang Zhiqiang bought furniture, he cursed wildly at home, thinking that Zhang Zhiqiang should send the furniture to their Jia family.

I have to say that Qin Huairu has a novel imagination, because she can think of so many things about Zhang Zhiqiang's promotion.
