Chapter 58 My sister-in-law is here!
"Xiao Shen, Xiao Wang, you two come here for a moment!"
In the fitter's workshop, Zhou Wangjia, the workshop director, suddenly appeared at the workshop door and shouted at Shen Zhishou and Wang Mingliang.
The two busy workers exchanged a glance, then hurried toward the workshop entrance.
"Director, what's the matter?"
Wang Mingliang casually asked Zhou Wangjia a question.
Zhou Wangjia smiled and said, "A batch of steel billets arrived at the factory, and we need help unloading them. You two go and lend a hand!"
"no problem!"
Shen Zhishou calmly replied.
Wang Mingliang, however, wore a bitter expression and said in a pitiful tone, "Director, why is it always me?"
"You little brat, don't act innocent after getting the benefit!"
"In our workshop, you're capable of making even level one or two workpieces, so why aren't we assigning you any parts? Don't you have any self-awareness?"
"Yes, yes, you're absolutely right!"
After being scolded, Wang Mingliang instantly changed into a fawning, sycophantic demeanor.
"Stop causing trouble!"
"Get to work properly, or I'll tell your dad!"
"Uncle, don't worry, I definitely won't let you down!"
Wang Mingliang instantly stood at attention, looking sharp and energetic.
Zhou Wangjia said nothing more and turned to leave.
After he left, Shen Zhishou glanced at Wang Mingliang, clicked his tongue, and said, "I didn't realize you were like this. Tell me honestly, what's your relationship with Director Zhou?"
Originally, Shen Zhishou was also wondering why Wang Mingliang, whose skills were clearly quite good, hadn't been assigned production tasks by the workshop. Now he realized that this kid had connections!
"Hey, Brother Shen, Uncle Zhou is my dad's comrade-in-arms!"
"I really didn't mean to hide it from you, it's just that I was afraid you'd think I was bragging if you found out!"
"Alright, I forgive you!"
How could Shen Zhishou possibly have any dissatisfaction with Wang Mingliang over such a trivial matter?
No matter when, it is always a society based on human relationships.
Besides, why should they say whatever they want?
"By the way, from what you're saying, these steel billets aren't very easy to move?"
"I'm lucky, but it's just so tiring!"
When Wang Mingliang talked about this, he was full of resentment.
When Shen Zhishou heard Wang Mingliang say this, he just smiled. He was the least afraid of getting tired.
Soon, the two arrived at the loading and unloading area.
Seeing the three large trucks full of various steel materials, Shen Zhishou finally understood why Wang Mingliang said this job was tiring.
Fortunately, they weren't the only ones responsible for moving things.
Surprisingly, Shen Zhishou spotted Jia Dongxu in the moving team.
Jia Dongxu is a level three fitter, so why was he pulled in to do this job?
"That's just for show!"
Wang Mingliang gave the answer directly.
"Jia Dongxu's skill level is nowhere near that of a third-grade worker, but his master, Yi Zhonghai, is an eighth-grade fitter, so the factory workers just turn a blind eye!"
"There will be an extra two dollars for this moving job!"
"We came here to really work, he's just putting on an act and slacking off!"
When it comes to Jia Dongxu, Wang Mingliang has absolutely no respect for him.
Shen Zhishou didn't know much about Jia Dongxu either. After all, he had never officially appeared in the drama "Siheyuan". There was only a photo of him hanging on the wall. He was a very sharp prop when Jia Zhangshi was manipulating Qin Huairu.
"Wow, Brother Shen, you're really strong!"
Wang Mingliang soon discovered that Shen Zhishou's strength was somewhat terrifyingly excessive.
Shen Zhishou smiled and said, "I don't have any other merits, except that I'm very strong!"
"hehe……"
Wang Mingliang clearly didn't believe a single word of it.
Just because he's strong?
He learned the fitter's skills so quickly and skillfully; he witnessed it with his own eyes.
There were quite a few workers carrying the loads, about twenty people.
Jia Dongxu mingled in the crowd, carrying only one or two items at a time. He looked busy, but in reality, he was just slacking off, taking advantage of the situation to earn a meager two yuan as a supplement.
Such behavior is naturally looked down upon by many.
Shen Zhishou didn't greet Jia Dongxu either, as he also felt that Jia Dongxu was no good.
This is an era for striving.
If you want to live a good life, how can you do it without hard work?
Either you endure the hardship of studying, or you find work easier and are placed in a cadre system, where promotions are slow but the starting point and potential are high.
Alternatively, one can work hard in their daily work, hone their skills, and improve their job level.
Jia Dongxu is not highly educated and works as a fitter, but he doesn't hone his skills and just drifts along day after day. No wonder the Jia family is struggling.
Come to think of it, this is all Yi Zhonghai's fault!
If it weren't for Yi Zhonghai's constant support, Jia Dongxu would have never truly suffered, and he might have already risen to prominence long ago.
Every sip and every bite is preordained!
With the monster Shen Zhishou involved, today's moving work was completed quickly.
The workers involved in the transport all knew that Shen Zhishou was incredibly strong, and with Wang Mingliang's promotion, it wouldn't be long before Shen Zhishou's reputation as a strongman spread throughout the entire factory.
After moving the steel billets, everyone returned to their respective workshops.
Only then did Jia Dongxu sidle up to Shen Zhishou and whisper, "Little Shen, I have something to tell you!"
"What's the matter, Master Jia?"
Shen Zhishou stopped and looked at Jia Dongxu.
Jia Dongxu gave an awkward smile and whispered, "Exactly, there's a subsidy for our moving business, couldn't you have mentioned it in the yard?"
Shen Zhishou frowned slightly and said, "Master Jia is joking. Why would I be talking about this in the courtyard for no reason?"
"I only told my wife!"
"If there's nothing else, Master Jia, then see you later!"
Shen Zhishou had figured it out: Jia Dongxu was keeping a secret stash of money!
What's the point of keeping this little gold in stock?
Shen Zhishou doesn't care, nor does he want to care!
……
At the end of the workday, Shen Zhishou quickly left work and went home.
My wife got a job, so we definitely have to celebrate today.
Although we stewed chicken for lunch, there are still some activities to do in the evening.
Shen Zhishou strode around the courtyard house and saw Yan Bugui guarding the entrance. After a brief greeting, Shen Zhishou entered the courtyard house.
However, when Shen Zhishou entered the room, he found that there was another person besides Yu Li!
With two braids, she really looked quite pretty!
This is my sister-in-law, Yu Haitang!
Shen Zhishou truly did not expect that Yu Haitang would actually appear at his home.
"Master, this is my younger sister, Yu Haitang!"
When Yu Li saw Shen Zhishou return, she quickly got up to greet him and introduced him to Yu Haitang.
Yu Haitang greeted him with a smile, calling him "brother-in-law".
"You're my sister-in-law, right? Please sit down!"
"Yu Li, you take care of things first. I'm going out to buy some things. I'll cook a couple of dishes tonight to properly treat your sister!"
"No need, we still have leftover chicken soup and chicken from lunch, we can just stew a dish!"
Yu Li didn't expect Shen Zhishou to spend money.
She knows her younger sister all too well; she's the type who takes advantage of kindness. If she thinks that coming to her house means she'll get good food, she might come over several times a week!
