After Gao Yan arrived at the fitter's workshop, he walked up to Wang Jiangang with a grin, grabbed a handful of candy, and stuffed it into his hand: "Master, I got married yesterday, this is wedding candy!"
Wang Jiangang was stunned, thinking to himself that this kid was too fast.
He said he wanted to find a wife just the day before yesterday, and got married yesterday.
Gao Yan lowered his voice and said, "Our neighborhood was assigned a group of people who had fled famine. There happened to be a young and beautiful girl among them. I took a liking to her, and then we got our marriage certificate."
“Are you out of your mind, kid? With your looks and qualifications, you could easily find a girl from the city. Why are you going to find someone who’s fled famine? What will happen to the food?” Wang Jiangang said with a stern face.
"Master, don't worry, I have a way to get the food!"
"You're not talking about getting food from the black market, are you?"
"Of course not!"
Gao Yan immediately denied it: "I have a classmate who works as a purchasing agent in a textile factory. He can get grain that is not part of the planned grain supply."
"real?"
"Of course it's true!"
"That's good. If you run out of food, come to me and I'll think of something to help you!"
"Then thank you, Master!"
In fact, Gao Yan knew that his master, Wang Jiangang, was not having an easy time either. Although he was a level six worker, he had three daughters and a son, and his wife was not working.
Therefore, he has to support six people by himself.
Afterwards, Gao Yan distributed wedding candies to the workers in the workshop again, and they all received their blessings.
Time flies, and it's lunchtime again.
Gao Yan walked leisurely toward the second canteen with his lunchbox in hand, wanting to see if that old bachelor Ma Weimin would still be able to cook for him.
To Gao Yan's disappointment...
He didn't see Ma Weimin at any of the food service windows.
After thinking about it, Ma Weimin probably realized something too.
He dared not serve food to others anymore, lest he act foolishly again. After all, he had already been fined three months' salary and demoted. If he acted foolishly again, he probably wouldn't even be able to keep his job as a chef.
Another day has passed.
Gao Yan deliberately went to the vegetable market, and when he came out, he had half a pound of pork in his hand.
When we got home.
Li Mengyao had already prepared the meal.
"Mengyao, cook this half-pound of pork too!"
Gao Yan handed the pork to Li Mengyao.
"How about we save it for tomorrow?"
"No need, we'll eat it today!"
Seeing that Gao Yan insisted, Li Mengyao had no choice but to give in. Fortunately, all three stewards were eating meat that night, so although the meat at Gao Yan's house smelled a bit too good, it didn't seem out of place!
After the meal.
Gao Yan went to find the three managers, and then called Yang Haijun.
In front of the three managers, the two signed a voluntary house exchange agreement. The 400 yuan was not written on it, but the three managers also signed it.
After signing the agreement, Gao Yan didn't hesitate and took out 400 yuan and gave it to Yang Haijun in front of the three managers. They agreed to go to the street office to exchange the house deeds the next morning.
That night.
Gao Yan held Li Mengyao's soft body and fell into a sweet sleep.
The next morning.
He first went to the factory and asked for two hours off.
Then they went back to the courtyard house and called Yang Haijun to exchange the house deeds.
At first, the neighborhood committee thought that Gao Yan had pressured Yang Haijun, so they called Yang Haijun aside for a private talk.
It was known that both parties were acting voluntarily, and there were also the signatures of three senior officials in charge.
The neighborhood committee then issued new property deeds for the two of them.
Then we returned to the courtyard house.
The two parties then began moving.
Gao Yan's family didn't have many things, and neither did Yang Haijun's family.
However, Yang Haijun was still a teenager, so his home was inevitably a bit dirty and messy.
Gao Yan didn't pay attention and went to the factory after moving.
As for the house cleaning, Li Mengyao and her sister took care of it.
After arriving at the factory.
Gao Yan hurriedly finished his morning tasks.
Even though he slowed down his work, he finished the job just after 11 o'clock.
"Wei Guo, it seems you have fully mastered the work of a first-level worker. Now I will teach you the work of a second-level worker!"
"Thank you, Master!"
"Don't thank me, it's because you're talented and you've worked hard!"
Gao Yan is not the same Gao Weiguo as before. Under Wang Jiangang's tutelage, his learning progress is very fast.
Wang Jiangang was stunned, thinking to himself, "This kid was hiding his true abilities!"
In fact, let alone a level 2 worker, even a level 8 worker's work can be completely mastered by Gao Yan after just two viewings.
If it weren't for the restrictions on the grading system, he would guarantee to pass one grade per day and become the youngest level eight fitter in the country.
Because of resource shortages.
The factory also has strict requirements for certification exams.
For example, his mentor, Wang Jiangang, had already reached the level of a seventh-grade worker, but the factory kept holding him back from taking the exam.
Because a level 6 worker is only considered an intermediate worker, while a level 7 worker is a senior worker.
Once you reach the senior technician level, your salary will improve significantly!
"Master, I'd like to renovate my house. Do you know anyone who does renovations?"
During a break, Gao Yan asked Wang Jiangang a question.
“I do know him. Come with me after get off work this afternoon, and I'll take you there!”
"Thank you very much, Master!"
After getting off work in the afternoon, Gao Yan followed Wang Jiangang to a small courtyard house.
Several families also live in this small courtyard house.
The person Wang Jiangang introduced to him was named Niu Dajun, a carpenter.
Gao Yan plans to convert the house into a bedroom, living room, kitchen, and bathroom.
After hearing his request, Niu Dajun also started to think about it and told him that building a bathroom inside the house was probably not feasible and would be quite expensive.
Gao Yan disagreed with this.
We are determined to build toilets, mainly because the compound uses public toilets.
