"Do you want to help or not?"
Can Liu Guangqi help with this? Definitely. After what happened last time, the old man's trust in Liu Guangqi has reached an all-out level. As long as he opens his mouth, the old man will definitely agree. After all, he is his grandson inside and outside. Whoever he allows to be adopted is not an adoptive child.
But who to speak for is a question. Bai Zhanan definitely doesn't have to think about it. If he has to choose, he can only choose from the two brothers-in-law, Bai Zhanguang and Bai Zhanbang. After all, they are both Bai Mei's biological brothers.
Thinking about it, Liu Guangqi looked at Bai Mei aside, but Bai Mei turned around and poured tea for Bai Jingye.
"Okay, I agreed. I'll go talk to the old man after a while."
After thinking for a long time, Liu Guangqi finally decided to speak up for Bai Zhanbang in front of the old man. On the one hand, he had finally led Bai Zhanguang to the right path, and he didn't want to ruin him again because of this little money.
On the other hand, I pity Bai Zhanbang. In the TV series, Zhou Yulian committed suicide by throwing herself into a well because she failed to make Bai Zhanbang the heir of Bai Yuting. Not long after, Bai Jingye was frightened to death by Bai Jingqi for stealing things, and Bai Zhanbang became an orphan with no father, no mother, no one to care for and no one to love him.
Even though he might not appreciate it if he helped him, at least it was a good deed.
"Come on, with your words, this matter will be settled."
Hearing Liu Guangqi's words, Bai Jingye was so happy that he slapped his thigh. Although Zhou Yulian on the side didn't understand, she kept smiling.
"Dad, aunt, what do you want to eat? I'll ask Huairu to cook it for you."
Bai Mei said looking at the family of three in front of her.
"No, we're not hungry. It's still early. Let's go to the old man's place first. When this is over, I'll treat you to a good meal. You can choose the place."
Bai Jingye couldn't wait to say, this kind of thing should be done sooner rather than later. Who knows if anything will happen during the delay in eating.
"Fine"
Seeing Bai Jingye so anxious, Liu Guangqi could only shake his head helplessly, and followed Bai Jingye's family of three to the Bai family's old house again.
"Hey, didn't you just leave? Why are you back again? It's dinner time, so you came here to enjoy the meal."
Bai Jingqi, who was leaning on the recliner and smoking, asked in surprise when he saw Liu Guangqi visiting again.
"You guessed it wrong, I'm not here to get you a favor. I'm here to scold you."
Liu Guangqi pulled a stool and sat next to Bai Jingqi and smiled bitterly.
"Who asked you to come over to intercede?"
Hearing Liu Guangqi's words, Bai Jingqi was stunned for a moment, sat up and took a look outside. Sure enough, he saw a few sneaky figures at the door.
"Who else could it be? My father-in-law. As soon as I got home, he was following behind me. What can I do? He is my father-in-law after all. In front of so many people, I can't refute it. To save his face.”
Liu Guangqi spread his hands and said.
"He is quite smart and knows who to look for, unlike Jing Gong who only works blindly. Okay, I understand, you go back and let him bring his wife and children in."
After hearing this, Bai Jingqi snorted and smiled.
"Okay"
Upon hearing this, Liu Guangqi felt as if he had been granted amnesty, and immediately ran out to call the people out. As for him, he left this place of right and wrong in a flash. This time, he didn't even return home, and ran directly to Chen Xueru.
With Liu Guangqi's recommendation, Bai Jingqi finally took a serious look at his little grandson. After a test and found that there was nothing wrong with him, he took Bai Zhanbang to Bai Yuting's residence the next day. In the afternoon, news came out from Bai Yuting's side. , decided to adopt Bai Zhanbang.
Naturally, some people were happy and some were worried when they heard the news. Bai Jingye and Zhou Yulian must be happy because they got their wish. The unhappy ones are naturally those who failed to succeed, especially Bai Zhanguang and Bai Zhanan.
After knowing that Bai Jingye had hired Liu Guangqi as a lobbyist to get the opportunity to Bai Zhanbang, Bai Zhanguang stomped his feet and asked who in the family had the closest relationship with Liu Guangqi.
Well, besides Bai Mei, it was him. If he had thought of going to Liu Guangqi earlier, he would have been the adoptive one. Because of negligence, such a good opportunity was missed. However, it was useless to be angry anymore. Bai Zhanguang, who was in a depressed mood, packed up his things and went back to HLJ.
As for Bai Zhanan, he was stunned when he heard the news. It was obvious that he was the one who found Liu Guangqi first, but Liu Guangqi helped someone else. The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. Bai Zhanan was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot and then fainted. When I woke up, I went crazy.
After receiving this news, Liu Guangqi was also filled with tears. Although he had changed the fate of many people, the inertia of history still guided most people towards their destined destination. It is true that everything is fate and no one can control it at all.
One autumn rain and another cold, the weather in Old BJ became cold in just one rain. A single piece of clothing could no longer block the chill of the morning. Many people began to rummage through boxes and cabinets to find last year's sweaters and pants.
Although the weather is getting colder day by day, the motivation of the workers in the steel rolling mill is getting hotter day by day, and it was directly ignited with the arrival of a piece of news.
"Why are you so happy today? Dad, the factory gave you a salary increase?"
That night, Liu Guangqi and his family were sitting together having dinner happily. Looking at Old Liu, who was humming a little tune and drinking wine, almost laughing out loud with joy, Liu Guangqi couldn't help but ask.
"No"
"No, why are you so happy?"
"Hehe, although it's not a salary increase, it's not much different. Aren't you always very smart? Guess what it is."
Liu Haizhong leaned back on the Grand Master's chair, looked at Liu Guangqi and smiled.
"There's not even a single clue or hint. How do you want me to guess what's going on? Just tell me."
Liu Guangqi thought for a while and found that nothing big seemed to have happened recently.
"I know you can't guess it. The factory is planning to implement an eight-level worker system. Do you know what the eight-level worker system is? Do you need me to explain it to you?"
He exhaled a puff of smoke from his bangs, which were already a little tipsy.
"It's so fast. Didn't the meeting just finish in September? We are ready to implement it now."
After hearing this, Liu Guangqi asked in reply, Liu Guangqi was naturally familiar with the eight-level labor system. The Northeastern region has been implementing the eight-level labor system since liberation. This system is not only a technical hierarchy, but also a wage hierarchy. The higher the level, the better the worker. The higher the technical level, the higher the salary.
The BJ area has always implemented a mixture of wage system and supply system. There is no detailed classification of the levels of skilled workers like Liu Haizhong, so the salary level is much lower than that of workers with the same technical level in the Northeast.
Now I suddenly heard that the eight-level worker system was going to be implemented in the factory, so I would be so happy. After all, after the implementation of this system, not only can wages be increased, but it will also be more face-saving to speak out once the level is determined. At the very least, Liu Haizhong felt that his skills would be no problem for an eighth-level blacksmith.
In September, a nationwide discussion on the wage system was held in BJ. The focus of the discussion was the eight-level worker system. Unexpectedly, not long after this, the steel rolling mill followed the current situation and implemented the eight-level worker system.
"That's quick. Where is our steel factory? This is the one in the factory owned by old BJ. What good thing can't happen to us?"
Liu Haizhong gestured to Liu Guangqi with a thumbs up, obviously very proud of being able to work at the Red Star Steel Factory.
"Well, it's really impressive. I remember that these eighth-level workers need to be assessed. When will the factory prepare for the assessment and rating?"
"Speaking of this, it's interesting. For this rating, the factory is planning to hold a martial arts competition. All workers will participate, and the remaining ones will compete in front of everyone in the factory. , whoever wins by then will be the top pick of our steel mill.
Let me tell you, you all have to go there when the time comes and see how your dad brings you the number one pick. They say I am a hero and a good man. You are the number one pick and your dad can’t embarrass you. You will definitely go there when the time comes. . "
"Okay, stop talking, go back to bed quickly, you drink too much, and you don't know how to weigh yourself."
Seeing Liu Haizhong, who was drunk and speaking awkwardly, Liu's mother directly helped him to Liu Guangtian's room next door. As for Liu Guangtian, he was forced to live in the attic, which was Liu Guangyi's room before.
