Chapter 184 Contradiction
Seeing that everyone had said almost the same thing, he raised his own opinion: "Secretary, team leader, accountant, director, you just mentioned only three sewing workers, have you forgotten the people who cut bags?"
"Haha, didn't Ziyi say that you were a technician? Then it must be you who did the cutting. Ten work points a day, and that's just some cutting. Besides, others don't know how to do it, right?" said the secretary.
"If she doesn't know how, just learn. I will teach her every style, and then she will be responsible for cutting them out and sewing them on the sewing machine." Yike explained.
"Then what do you do? Everyone gets the same work points. If you teach people how to cut and then stop doing it yourself, and your work points are the same as everyone else's, people won't say you are fleecing socialism. Don't learn to behave like that capitalist lady." The secretary frowned.
"How can I behave like a capitalist lady? How have I ever taken advantage of socialism? Secretary, I cannot accept your hat."
The brigade cadres looked at each other in bewilderment. They had never expected that the secretary would make things difficult for Ziyi's wife.
Ziyi got angry and said coldly, "Haha, I didn't know my wife was acting like a capitalist lady, and she was also fleecing the socialists. It's ridiculous. As the saying goes, 'Hold the bowl to eat meat, put the bowl down to curse your mother.' My wife just found a job to help everyone make money and have food to eat, and now she turns around and says that she is fleecing the socialists. Then please ask the secretary to take the wool from those members, and we will return it. My wife didn't take a penny, but she still has the reputation of fleecing the socialists. It's just like crossing the river and destroying the bridge. You really think that there are only two styles of bags. It's too beautiful. If you want to make money, you have to have different styles of bags in the future. Only Yi Ke can design this, I don’t know how to do it, and not just anyone can do it. If you think she is a dispensable technician, then don’t look for us if you regret it in the future. I can support my wife, so there is no need to suffer this. Don’t worry about whether it is capitalist. I just know that if you can’t support your wife, why get married? Neither of us will occupy positions in the factory anymore. When the factory is well organized, we will find someone else to replace me. In fact, Yi Ke and I don’t have time to do these things. We just want to help the village make some money to buy some food. Now that everyone has food to eat, let’s do it this way.”
The secretary looked at the other cadres, no one spoke, so he said: "This bag is an idea that Ziyi's wife came up with. I don't mean to stop Ziyi's wife from being a technician, but I just want her to do the same amount of work as everyone else. If Ziyi's wife finds it too hard, then someone else can do it. There are still members in the village who have good cutting skills. Ziyi's wife is a great contributor, I know, so do you think this is okay? What do you want to do? Ziyi's wife, you tell me, as long as our team has it, you can choose it. Even if you want to be the director of women's affairs, our director of women's affairs can let you do it."
When the director of the women's department heard this, her face changed color. Ziyi and Yike's eyes narrowed instantly. The secretary was trying to attract hatred from Yike.
Yi Ke stood up and said, "Secretary, team leader, accountant, director, first of all, I declare that I have no interest in being a cadre. Secondly, my husband can support me, and I don't need to earn work points. As for this technician, the factory doesn't need it. The production section chief can arrange for everyone to do it. Don't take care of me. Arrange such an idle position for me and let me receive a white-collar salary. Thank you all. I don't need to do this anymore. Thank you!"
After he finished speaking, he stood up and walked out the door without waiting for the secretary to say anything else. The captain hurriedly stood up to stop him, but Ziyi stopped him and said, "Captain, my wife is right. It's not like I can't afford to support her. There's no need to take advantage of socialism, and I don't want to be accused of fleecing socialism."
Seeing that Ziyi and Yike didn't give him face, the secretary's face darkened.
Seeing that things had gotten awkward, the captain said in annoyance, "This is all my fault. I didn't explain it clearly to everyone. This bag was really a way for Yike to make money for everyone. She is really a hero. It's not an exaggeration to say so. She is the only one who knows how to make a bag. The last time everyone made it, my wife helped to cut it, and it was all taught by Yike. My wife said the same thing when she came back, saying that Ziyi didn't know how to do it, and he was just helping Yike. She also praised Yike, saying that Yike drew several drawings, all of which were the styles of backpacks to be made in the future. She was just a technical instructor, and she really didn't take advantage of us. It's really not that we are taking care of her. On the contrary, without her technical guidance, this factory would only be able to make this kind of backpack, because everyone only learned this kind of backpack."
"The captain is wrong. There are two types, and there is also a waist bag. A factory with three people is enough to make it. There is no need to make more styles. Once these two styles are mentioned, she will teach everyone how to make them." Ziyi said with a cold face. After saying that, he asked the captain to write him a letter of introduction so that he could enter the city.
The team leader wrote two letters of introduction, one from Ziyi and one from Yike. Ziyi returned the card that Yike had given him, and Ziyi said that Yike would probably not go into the city today.
After Ziyi left, the people in the office became even more silent. First, I won’t go into the city, which means I won’t borrow money. The director of the women's department was very angry. She was doing a good job, but the secretary told her to move out, so she did. If she made a mistake, it would be understandable. She was innocent and speechless. But just to win over Ziyi, she was asked to quit her position as the women's director. No one would be satisfied.
The director of women's affairs sneered and said loudly, "Secretary, I want to ask you, what mistake did I make? You just fired me with just one sentence."
The secretary was still angry that Ziyi and the other man did not give him face, and immediately confronted the women's director: "You did nothing wrong, wasn't that to make Ziyi's wife happy? Don't we have to rely on her man to make money? That always has to satisfy people. What do you think about sacrificing your position for the benefit of the whole village? As long as it is for the whole village to have food to eat, I can give up my position as secretary if they like. ”
"Haha! I'm afraid you are reluctant to give up your position, but some people are jealous of Ziyi's wife's position..." The women's director said sarcastically. She was not afraid of the secretary today. The secretary's position was about to be eliminated, so what was there for her to be afraid of?
The secretary's face turned even darker. The team leader tried to smooth things over and said, "Forget it, forget it. The secretary just said one thing. Don't take it seriously. Now I want to ask everyone, do you still want to open this backpack factory?"
"Open, why not open it? Didn't Ziyi go to the city to borrow money to buy a sewing machine?" said the accountant.
The women's director sneered, "Haha! Didn't Ziyi say that he could only borrow money for two sewing machines? The rest had to be borrowed by Yike. Now, Yike doesn't even go to the city, which means she doesn't want to borrow money. You think giving her a technician job is a big benefit. Does she need your work points? She never thought about earning work points before. She doesn't want a technician. She is willing to be a technician to teach everyone how to do things. She also saw that the team was poor and wanted to help everyone make some money to buy food. If it weren't for the sale of bags this time, how could every household have money to buy grains? What an ungrateful person."
