Rebirth in 1960, My Industrial Age

Chapter 28 Mission Completed, New Year's End

More than a month later, a few days before the Spring Festival, cheers suddenly broke out in the new workshop.

"It's done!"

"Hooray, it's finally done!"

In the workshop, cheers of celebration were heard everywhere, and all the workers cheered with joy.

After more than two months of rushing to complete the task, with half of every month spent working overtime, we finally completed this batch of tasks before the New Year.

Although there will be another batch after the New Year, the skilled workers are sure to complete the task.

The cheers and celebrations were very loud, but Bai Kang and Zhou Fengnian didn't care. The workers had been working overtime for such a long time, so it was good for them to vent a little.

Moreover, Zhou Fengnian is still checking the product quality, otherwise if the Russians find problems with it, there will definitely be a lot of trouble.

After the workshop celebrated for a while, Bai Kang shouted to comfort them: "Okay, okay, fellow workers, you have worked hard recently.

But don't worry, the factory will hold a dinner tomorrow, and everyone can get two meal tickets. This is approved by the factory leaders!"

When the workers below heard this, they cheered with joy again.

"Long live!"

“The factory manager is so nice!”

"Director Bai, when can I pick it up? What dishes are available?"

Bai Kang shouted loudly: "Don't worry, we have done a great job. This time the factory director and secretary ran around for a long time and brought three pigs to our factory. I promise you will have good food!"

"You guys, just wait to get your meal coupons. You all have made contributions this year!"

Zhou Fengnian, who was standing by, also heard it, and he already knew how much New Year's goods he could receive.

Two meal coupons, five kilograms of pork, and other New Year's goods were already a lot in a year when supplies were slowly being restored.

Zhou Fengnian also heard a piece of news that the higher-ups were considering building a new factory, because he had already handed over the induction cooker to them through Luo Cheng, and there was also a finished product.

The induction cooker is definitely much more convenient than a coal stove, and the induction cooker Zhou Fengnian is not the crude first-generation induction cooker.

It has many functions such as simplicity, safety and temperature control. After Zhou Fengnian pointed out the disadvantage of high electricity consumption, the people above knew what to do without him continuing to explain.

The country is not completely closed off from the outside world. The Canton Fair was held a few years ago, and the three products of induction cookers, electric blankets and hot water heaters could be used to generate foreign exchange.

It was Luo Cheng who hinted at the matter of building a new factory and asked him whether he wanted to stay in the technical department of the machinery factory or go to a new place.

If a new factory is really built, Zhou Fengnian, who has developed three products, will definitely be the first choice in terms of technology.

He is performing so well now, the machinery factory is probably unwilling to let him go, so Luo Cheng asked about it.

Zhou Fengnian hasn't thought about it yet. He told Luo Cheng that he would wait and see after completing the workshop task at the end of March. At present, he is only thinking about completing the task.

"Almost done, Brother Bai. The workers have nothing to do now. This batch of products will be sent to the warehouse next."

Zhou Fengnian said, "Go and report to the factory director."

Bai Kang nodded and said, "Okay, Brother Zhou, let's go together."

After saying that, the two of them set off towards the factory office building.

After arriving at the factory director's office, Bai Kang knocked on the door, and after hearing the shouting from inside, he walked in.

"Director, Deputy Director Zhou and I are here to tell you the good news. The task has been completed and has been sent to the warehouse for storage."

After listening to this, Director Li said with a smile: "Well, you did a good job. Now we can have a relaxing New Year." Bai Kang and Zhou Fengnian felt relieved, but the next second Director Li continued: "But you will still have to work hard after the New Year.

And Director Bai, Director Zhou, you have to come back a day earlier after the New Year."

"Before you start working, you need to be well prepared, especially Director Zhou. You need to get over the problem with the machine."

Director Li knew that the machines in the new workshop often had problems, but they couldn't get better ones in a short time, so he could only let Zhou Fengnian overcome the problem.

"I understand, Director."

"Well, the New Year's goods are ready for you, but Director Bai, you have to wait until the goods in the warehouse are delivered before you can leave. It's hard work."

"Yes, factory director."

After that, they talked about some work matters before Bai Kang and Zhou Fengnian left.

Zhou Fengnian was busy from November to the end of January and had no good rest for nearly three months. He also studied integrated circuits and CNC machine tools privately.

Now I can finally have a good rest.

After saying hello to Bai Kang, Zhou Fengnian went to the logistics department to collect his benefits.

But when Zhou Fengnian arrived at the logistics department, he found it was full of people.

The factory will be closed for holiday in two days, so all the workers here are here to collect their wages and benefits. After a while, more than ten people came out of the house carrying the benefits issued by the factory.

One pound of pork, two pounds of flour, and two ounces of oil.

The factory leaders have made great efforts this year, but I don’t know how many favors they have lost in getting these benefits.

However, the Second Machinery Plant had made remarkable achievements. For example, if the 10,000 hot pots and 10,000 electric blankets were sold to the Russians to pay off debts, the value would be at least nearly a million yuan.

Zhou Fengnian still knew the cost and selling price of electric blankets. Even if the Russians tried to bargain hard, this batch before the New Year should be able to offset the foreign debt of about 700,000 yuan.

Including the batch from the beginning of the New Year to March, the total is almost 1.4 million.

The new workshop of the Second Machinery Factory, which was built less than six months ago, has created an output value of 1.4 million. No wonder Director Li and Secretary Wang have put so much effort into improving Guanchang’s welfare.

Ordinary workers get one pound of meat, while those in the new workshop can get two pounds of meat.

When it was Zhou Fengnian's turn, he received five kilograms of meat, ten kilograms of flour, one kilogram of oil, and some bills in an envelope.

These bills are rewards from the factory to him. The two products have brought so many benefits to the factory, and it is very likely that a new factory will be built. Such a contribution should certainly be rewarded.

After Zhou Fengnian came out of the logistics department, Zhou Chunhua, who was waiting in the distance, came over and shouted, "Third brother."

"Chunhua, have you also finished your lunch?"

Zhou Chunhua nodded happily and said, "Well, I just received it. Third brother, are you going back?"

"You can ride my bike back first and take the piece I got back. Oh, and tell Mr. Luo that I will cook tonight.
The factory will have a holiday the day after tomorrow, but you will be free tomorrow. When I have a holiday the day after tomorrow, we can go home together."

Zhou Chunhua nodded and said, "Okay, Third Brother, I'll go back and talk to Aunt Li first."

After taking the car keys, meat and noodle oil, etc. from Zhou Fengnian, Zhou Chunhua left first; but Zhou Fengnian had to inspect the workshop before leaving, after all, he was the acting deputy director.

After renting Mr. Luo's front yard for more than two months, Zhou Fengnian and his sister often ate together with Mr. Luo and his wife.

However, Zhou Fengnian did not take advantage of Luo Gong. He had already collected very little rent, so he often treated Luo Gong to meals to make up for it.

Moreover, after cooking for two months, Zhou Fengnian's cooking skills have also risen to level three, but this is the skill level determined by the [Proficiency Simulation] system.

If we go by the cook level, his current skill should be around level seven, after all, the cook levels are ranked in reverse order.
