This is the technical fee our factory is giving you. Last time, the factory manager felt it was a bit too little, but the factory wasn't doing very well at the time, and we couldn't come up with that much money. So, this time we're not giving it to you at all. It's a total of one thousand yuan, plus fifty industrial vouchers. Oh, and there's also the banner our factory is awarding you.
"Also, this is the saw you invented; the factory manager said we should send you one."
At this moment, a large crowd had gathered outside Lin Ying's house. Upon hearing what this person was saying, everyone couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
"My God, a thousand dollars? That's a lot?"
"There are still fifty industrial vouchers left, wow, that's incredible. We can buy so much stuff with that."
"Who is this woman? How does she manage to make so much money?"
The people around them chatted amongst themselves, their words filled with envy.
Lin Ying took the items and thanked them with a smile: "Thank you for making this special trip."
"You're welcome, it's what we should do."
Another cadre in plainclothes said, "There's another matter. After a meeting at our factory, we unanimously decided to hire Comrade Lin Ying as an external engineer. She will be paid a salary according to the standard for a level 8 technical engineer. In our factory, the salary for a level 8 technical engineer is 115 yuan a month, plus other benefits."
However, you'll need to provide the factory with at least one design drawing each year. Of course, the factory will also offer an extra bonus for the designs you provide. Is that acceptable to you?
These words caused an uproar among the others outside, as it amounted to 115 yuan.
"Does that mean if I can't provide the design drawings, I won't be able to continue receiving my salary starting from the second year?"
The person was quite straightforward and nodded directly: "That's true. However, if you're busy, as long as you provide the factory with the drawings, your salary will continue to be paid. There's no such thing as a contract expiration."
Lin Ying nodded; that was indeed a good idea. After all, they had two children to raise, so there were definitely more expenses involved.
"Will my food ration be transferred to the factory, or will it remain here?"
Zhang Shanlin quickly replied, "This can only be considered a side job. Comrade Lin Ying's food ration is still with our military region. Aren't you still our unit's medicinal herb planting instructor? The unit continues to pay you a salary, so it hasn't affected anything else."
Lin Ying glanced at Zhang Shanlin. After she no longer needed Zhang Shanlin's help, she never sent her the so-called technical guidance fee again.
Although I don't know what Zhang Shanlin is up to, I'm still living in the compound, so there's no need to make things unpleasant over this.
"That's settled then." After saying that, Lin Ying turned to the two officers in work clothes and asked, "Do we need to sign an agreement?"
One of the officers took out a briefcase, opened a folder inside, and took out a few sheets of paper: "Take a look, the factory has already stamped it with their official seal. If you think it's okay, just sign it."
Lin Ying nodded, carefully read the contents, and signed her name after confirming that there were no problems.
The clerk was quite efficient; after Lin Ying signed the document, he immediately took out an envelope: "This is your October salary and receipts. Please keep it safe."
Lin Ying took the envelope without reading its contents: "Okay, thank you."
"You're welcome. It's what we should do. With you signing this contract, our mission can be considered successfully completed."
As they spoke, the two took a step back and handed the area over to the forestry worker.
The two forestry workers were sweating profusely. They hadn't expected the factory to be so supportive, offering a thousand yuan, a job opportunity, and a monthly salary.
Ultimately, it was Lin Ying who started this whole thing, and the design drawings were only produced to help the forest farm. Compared to the factory, the gifts they gave as thanks are somewhat inadequate now.
If you knew they were going to pull this stunt, saying that they should have refused when they were told to call the factory and come together, they would have been wrong.
What can we do now that things have come to this?
"Well, Comrade Lin Ying, as you know, the forest farm has limited resources. It's quite difficult."
"Cough, cough cough."
"Pfft~"
The two forestry workers couldn't continue, but they still had to bite the bullet and say, "Your drawings have been a great help to the forestry farm. This is the highest honor certificate the forestry farm has awarded you, along with 200 yuan and 50 jin of grain coupons."
After saying that, both officers wanted to disappear into the ground. When they came, they thought it was quite a lot, but now, compared to others, it was really not impressive.
