Siheyuan: I just like to stir up trouble

Upon hearing this, Jia Zhang cast her gaze towards everyone present. Everyone present shook their heads like rattles. You must be kidding. Who would want to have anything to do with Jia Zhang?

"Lin Fan didn't shake his head, so it's him!" Jia Zhang thought quickly and pointed at Lin Fan and said.

"Lin Fan is only a third-level fitter, not qualified to take an apprentice. Besides, are you qualified? He is Engineer Zhang's apprentice. If you take him as your master and waste his time, you are wasting the time of the young engineers and the future of the factory!"

The workshop director severely criticized Jia Zhang, leaving her stunned.

"Okay, you can make your own arrangements. Let her start with odd jobs. I have to take Lin Fan to participate in the competition. I don't have time to waste with her!"

Director Yang said one last thing and then left with Lin Fan.

"Lin Fan, come on!"

"Get a rank and bring honor to the factory!"

The fellow workers followed Lin Fan and sent him out of the workshop, shouting to cheer him on, while Jia Zhang was forgotten.

Lin Fan followed Director Yang and got into his jeep, which means they were in the Siheyuan world. If they were in the Marvel world, he would definitely not ride in the Happy Little Jeep.

"Lin Fan, do you know what happened to the Jia family? What is Qin Huairu up to?"

Sitting in the car, Director Yang took Lin Fan aside and started chatting.

"Mrs. Jia Zhang needs 3 yuan a month for her pension and 3 yuan for painkillers. The Jia family can't bear the burden. Qin Huairu doesn't want to give it anymore, so Mrs. Jia Zhang wants her son's job back."

"This Jia Zhang is really cruel. She takes six dollars every month without taking into account anything else? Qin Huairu's salary is indeed not enough. No, this painkiller is a prescription drug and cannot be prescribed randomly. Why does she have to take it every month?"

They didn't know yet that Jia Zhang had raised her demands to eight yuan per month.

But even so, Director Yang thought that the extra expense of six dollars per month was still a heavy burden for Qin Huairu, but he was immediately attracted by what Lin Fan said about buying painkillers every month.

"Just give some bribes and ask someone you know to prescribe it. It's not a big deal, and the doctor will just turn a blind eye!"

Lin Fan couldn't help but complain. In the original drama, the doctor in the courtyard did everything. Not only did he prescribe painkillers for Jia Zhang, he also issued a fake pregnancy certificate to Qin Jingru.

"It's just nonsense. Qin Huairu is the same. She gave up her job to Jia Zhang. Don't you think this will only cause trouble for the factory? I think she is not here to work, but to enjoy herself. She wants to relax and not have to use her brain. How shameless!"

Director Yang was also angered by Jia Zhang and couldn't help but complain about Qin Huairu again.

"It's okay. Find some odd jobs for her to do first. If she's lazy, send her to the sand casting workshop and work her to death. If she doesn't listen, deduct all her salary. In less than a month, she will kneel down and beg you to return the job to Qin Huairu!" Lin Fan said lightly.

Director Yang nodded in agreement.

The two of them arrived at the competition venue while talking. Lin Fan was a little surprised that there were quite a lot of people.

However, Lin Fan and his friends arrived really late. They were the last ones to sign up, so they could only be ranked last.

But Lin Fan didn't care. It was a good opportunity to see what level the people in front of him were at, and then decide how much strength he should show.

After waiting for an hour at the venue, the game finally started.

The first person to come on stage is a middle-aged man, huh? A middle-aged man?

Lin Fan turned his head and looked at Director Yang, who saw Lin Fan's confusion.

"His name is Ding Li. He suffers from progeria, so he looks old, just like Sha Zhu. In fact, he is only 21 years old. I heard that he has reached the level of a fourth-level fitter!"

So that's how it is. Lin Fan thought he was being fooled. If someone of such an old age could get the title, then he would have to perform at the level of a senior engineer to compete with him, right?

But progeria? Shazhu? They are a bit similar. Lin Fan laughed secretly in his heart.

It was Lin Fan's turn more than two hours later. He almost fell asleep while waiting. The most capable one among them was a man named Xu Wenqiang, a 23-year-old with thick eyebrows and big eyes, who was actually a level fitter.

Lin Fan came on stage and used his level of a sixth-level fitter to make a part, winning easily and deservedly becoming the first.

"Are you still trying to hide your incompetence? I see that you are doing it with ease and comfort. I'm afraid that level 6 fitter is not your limit, right?"

Director Yang smiled happily and asked about Lin Fan out of curiosity.

"Yes, my level is far beyond level six, so of course it's easy. I'm a level eight fitter, so just assign me the grade of level eight fitter!" Lin Fan replied half-truthfully.

"Go to hell with you. Although I said that I would give you a level based on your performance in the competition, you can't just talk nonsense. You're only a level eight fitter. Why don't you say that you're a senior engineer?" Director Yang couldn't help but scold with laughter.

"I want to, too. Unfortunately, the engineer wants me to take the test myself, so you can't give it to me even if you want to!"

Lin Fan spread his hands, indicating that it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but that you don’t have the ability!

Chapter 193 Cause a sensation

After the competition, Director Yang took Lin Fan to a restaurant for a good meal to reward him.

Then the two men returned to the steel mill. Director Yang went to the office to rejoice secretly, while Lin Fan returned to the workshop.

"Lin Fan, you're back? Did you get a rank?"

Lin Fan walked to his workstation and Fang Dahai immediately came over and asked.

"That will definitely be easy!" Lin Fan replied with a smile.

"You got first place?" Fang Dahai asked excitedly.

“You must be number one!”

"Great, great! I was right about you!" Fang Dahai was proud to hear that Lin Fan won the first place. His vision was right.

Fang Meng, a prospective college student, married Lin Fan, a small fitter. Although others did not say it, they still felt that they were not a good match and thought Fang Dahai was stupid.

But Lin Fan is capable. He was first promoted to a third-level fitter, then became an engineer's apprentice, and now he has won first place in the National Youth Fitter Competition. It really makes him proud!

"Has Jia Zhang been moving things there?" Lin Fan did not get proud. Instead, he pointed at Jia Zhang who was moving steel in the corner and asked.

"Yes, she is not smart, and she still wants to be the workshop director. The director will definitely make things difficult for her. After you left, Jia Zhang was arranged to do odd jobs. She was not convinced at first, but then the director said that if she refused to do it, he would deduct three yuan from her salary. So she immediately went to do it obediently!" Fang Dahai said with some gloating.

"This is just the beginning. She will suffer in the future!" Lin Fan said with a smile.

"Did you ask Director Yang to discipline her?"

"Yeah, give her some strength!"

Just at this moment, Jia Zhang looked over and found that Lin Fan was looking at her and laughing happily, and she couldn't help but get furious.

"Damn you Lin Fan, laugh, laugh, laugh your mother's head, why don't you laugh to death!"

"Zhang Cuihua, move it quickly! Our co-workers are waiting for it!"

The workshop director interrupted Jia Zhang's cursing and asked her to continue working.

"Director, I'm so tired, can you let me rest for a while?" Jia Zhang pleaded.

Normally she is lazy and eats a lot at home, living a life of luxury, just mending shoe soles every day and waiting for food. Now she is asked to move steel, and she really can't handle it.

"Stop talking nonsense. It's been two or three hours, and you haven't even finished one-third of the work assigned to you. You ran the fastest during lunch, like a wild horse. Why didn't you complain about being tired then?" said the workshop director dissatisfiedly.

During lunch, Jia Zhang ran very fast and bumped into him. He held a grudge against her!

"You are just using public power to take revenge on your personal grudge. Do you believe that I will report you to the factory director?" Jia Zhang couldn't help it anymore.

"You go and sue, but you have no basic skills and can't do any work. But the factory can't just pay you for nothing, right? You have to work. Since you can't do technical work, you can only do some manual labor!"

The workshop director was not worried at all. What he did did not violate any rules at all, and it would be useless even if Jia Zhang sued him.

"Can't you arrange some easy work for me? Just like Lin Fan, I see he is always so leisurely and even has time to laugh at me!" Jia Zhang said, pointing at Lin Fan.

"He is only doing the work of a third-level fitter. Can you do it? He is so relaxed because he works fast. Can you do it so fast? You don't even know the tools, right?"

The workshop director asked Jia Zhang a series of questions, which confused her. It was the first time that she felt like a waste, although she had always been one.

Jia Zhang curled her lips and had to continue working under the supervision of the workshop director.

In the broadcasting room, Yu Haitang was chatting with Fang Meng, "Xiao Meng, your Lin Fan is going to participate in the competition. Is he confident?"

"He didn't tell me about this, but I have confidence in him!" Fang Meng said with a smile.

"He didn't tell you? Then he didn't take it to heart. I don't know if he is confident or arrogant!"

Yu Haitang was a little surprised that Lin Fan had never mentioned the machinist competition to Fang Meng.

"I think he is confident. Even though we have been married for so long, I still don't see through him. I always feel that he is very capable and has many talents that he has not yet shown!"

"He is hiding something from you, aren't you angry?" Yu Haitang asked curiously.

"Why should I be angry? Lin Fan is like a treasure, waiting for me to explore and discover. This kind of unknown is even more fascinating. Besides, he didn't hide it from me on purpose, it's just that there's no need to tell me!"

Fang Meng shook his head, organized his words, and then began to explain.

"I see you, have you been conquered by him? Doing that in broad daylight, you are done for, you will be eaten to death by him!"

Yu Haitang looked at Fang Meng, whose face was filled with a happy smile when she mentioned Lin Fan, and couldn't help but say something sourly.

"Don't mention that. This is a private matter between us as husband and wife. It's ok for you to eavesdrop, but why do you keep talking about it?" Fang Meng couldn't help but complain.

"You did it and you don't want people to tell you?"

"Hmph, I think you are envious?" Fang Meng asked, staring at Yu Haitang.

"No way!" Yu Haitang certainly couldn't admit it.

"Fang Meng, Yu Haitang, this is the notice from the factory director, broadcast it!"

Just as the two were playing and joking, the factory director's secretary came in and the two women quickly sat up straight.

The factory director's secretary didn't say much. He just handed them a notice and left.

"Wow, Lin Fan won first place, that's amazing. Fang Meng, give me half of Lin Fan!"

"Dream on! I won't give it to you!" Fang Meng refused directly.

"Stingy!" Yu Haitang tickled Fang Meng.

"Stop it, I'm going to start broadcasting!" Fang Meng quickly stopped her.

"Good afternoon, fellow workers. I am Fang Meng, the announcer. I am going to announce a notice: Comrade Lin Fan, a third-level fitter in our factory, has fully carried forward the spirit of hard work, practicality and capability, worked seriously and studied hard. In the National Youth Fitter Competition held today, he showed his skilled sixth-level fitter skills and won the first place, winning great honor for our factory! After research and decision by the factory leaders, Comrade Lin Fan will be issued a sixth-level fitter certificate and promoted to a sixth-level fitter. In addition, he will be awarded 300 yuan in cash, a bicycle ticket and a radio ticket. I hope everyone can learn from him, carry forward the spirit of hard work and study, and make contributions to the factory! The broadcast ends here, everyone encourage each other!"

Fang Meng hung up the radio and looked at the notice in her hand, feeling a little happy. Brother Lin Fan was so awesome!

"Fang Meng, why didn't you let me speak? You just finished speaking by yourself!" Yu Haitang said to Fang Meng angrily.

"Sorry, I forgot. I'll broadcast it to you next time!"

Fang Meng finally came to his senses and said a little embarrassedly.

"Hmph, the next report won't be about Lin Fan!" Yu Haitang said gloomily.

"That's my husband, why are you so excited!" Fang Meng couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard that.
