Chapter 406 This is Nanyang (first update, please subscribe)
What big people in this world are always worried about are military affairs, and most of the time these things have nothing to do with ordinary people.
Ordinary people often live their own ordinary lives. In fact, compared to big shots, the happiness of ordinary people is often the most unpretentious kind.
The whole day, Zhao Deliang's mouth was grinning, and anyone could notice the corners of his mouth rising 66.6 degrees.
In many cases, people’s happiness cannot be concealed.
"Ryoko, are you happy?"
The master asked, looking at his apprentice who was still smiling in front of the burning stove.
"No, it's nothing."
Because he was not sure yet, Zhao Deliang said it anyway, what if it wasn't?
Nothing is wrong.
It must be now!
After having a chat, Zhao Deliang immediately started working with his master. After getting married, in order to make life easier, he applied for a job adjustment. With the coordination of the company, he came to Futian Machinery Company to work as a furnace front worker. .
Compared with the reclamation area, the income here is higher - the basic salary is 12 yuan. Counting furnace subsidies, bonuses, full attendance, etc., it is a full 18 yuan a month, but Because he is an apprentice, his salary is directly discounted by 30%. But unlike ordinary apprentices, because he is married, there is no discount on bonuses or full attendance. In this way, he can still get a salary of more than 16 yuan a month.
However, even so, he was still a little dissatisfied. After all, Mary could earn more than forty yuan a month - no way, as we all know that medical staff have high wages.
It’s a bit embarrassing that men’s income is not as good as that of women.
"Master, if you learn machining, you can earn twenty or thirty yuan a month!"
The apprentice's words prompted the master who was lifting the workpiece to the heating furnace to say something.
“If you want to learn that, you must first go to a work apprenticeship school for one year, and then study with the master for two years. You will get no salary in the first year.”
“Ah!”
< br>Zhao Deliang was stunned when he heard the master say again.
"Besides, you can't do it either. There is an age limit for those who learn mechanical processing. If you are under 18 years old, just work here honestly. Don't underestimate our process. Quenching is a very important process. If you put this Once you learn enough, there is still hope of doubling your salary in the future. No matter what you do, you must be down-to-earth, you know? "
The master's words made Zhao Deliang chuckle and said.
"I understand, master."
In the next few hours, Zhao Deliang has been busy with the master, quenching the heat emitted by the heating furnace and workpieces in the workshop, making the workshop The mercury in the thermometer went straight up to forty degrees, and even so, it had no intention of stopping.
This is also the reason why the wages of furnace workers are relatively high. With such a high temperature, if they don’t pay a few dollars more, I’m afraid no one will do this job. After all, it’s too hot. It's hot.
Because he was sweating so much, by the time he took his lunch break, Zhao Deliang had already drank three large bottles of water without even going to the bathroom. He was sweating out all the water.
On the way to the canteen to eat, he still felt a little thirsty. When he was filling the kettle with water, he saw a lot of people crowded in the water room, looking at the notice.
“It’s a recruitment notice in the Zhongxing Special Zone. The salary will be increased by 20% directly!”
Zhao Deliang, who originally wanted to squeeze in and join in the fun, suddenly lost interest when he heard this. Our wife and children It would be great if we all live together happily, so why go to work in some Zhongxing Special Zone?
However, he still asked with some doubts.
"Um, where is the Zhongxing Special Zone? I've never heard of it."
"That's right, isn't Borneo one country, one region and three provinces? When did another Zhongxing Special Zone appear?"< br>
“One country, one region, three provinces” refers to the Kingdom of Sarawak, the North Borneo Special Region and the three provinces of Taiping, Yongan and Yongning. The ZTE Special Zone that has popped up now naturally makes everyone a little curious.
“I told you not to read the newspaper all of you!”
A worker next to me explained leisurely. "A few days ago, the North Borneo Company signed the Treaty of Amsterdam with the Dutch and bought Sulawesi, the Maluku Islands and West Irian. The three places were renamed Zhongxing, Yongding and Dongning. A special company zone, and by the way, there is also the Natuna Islands, now called Yongping Islands.”
It wasn’t until this time that everyone in the congregation realized that although most people still didn’t know where Zhongxing, Yongding, and Dongning were, looking at the wages mentioned on the notice, many workers who were not yet married would inevitably wonder. Think about it, after all, that is a 20% salary increase.
In Borneo, in addition to the official minimum wage, large companies also have a complex salary grade system. However complicated it is, one thing is for sure, the salary in Chang'an will not be higher than that in Yongning. Basically, the entire Borneo has equal pay for equal work, and because of this, basically no one will change jobs, and the company also advocates a "lifetime employment system", which is also directly related to the surge in labor demand and the scarcity of skilled workers. Under such circumstances, companies take the initiative to provide more protection to employees in order to obtain scarce labor and maintain employment stability.
In order to stabilize the employment relationship, the Ministry of Labor has formulated a basic salary system to ensure that the salary gap between large companies and small companies is controlled within 15%. Because there is no need to worry about personnel changes, companies can safely make long-term investments in human resources to cultivate more and more professional talents for themselves, and workers do not have to worry about changes in the working environment and can focus more on their jobs, and through polishing Use your own skills to get a higher salary, rather than changing jobs to increase your salary.
In this case, being able to increase your salary by 20% is definitely a tempting thing.
But it didn't appeal to Zhao Deliang at all.
Family is the most important thing. For Zhao Deliang, who finally had a family, the life he wanted was for his wife and children to live together.
Finally it’s my turn!
Three days later in the afternoon, while queuing up in front of the public housing application office, Zhao Deliang was so excited that he even counted how many people were queuing in front of him from time to time. There are only a few houses in Nanyang that can be bought with money, and they are expensive. Most of them are public housing. As long as you meet the qualifications, you can apply for public housing.
In the past four years, applying for public housing has long become a part of Nanyang people’s life.
This is his second time here. The last time was after registering his marriage. That was when he came here to register and apply - he applied with his marriage registration certificate. The waiting period was posted on the wall - 397 days, and the time was extended again.
The waiting period changes every day, sometimes earlier, sometimes extended, but most of the time it is extended. After all, immigrants come in every day and people get married every day.
397!
This means that people who apply today will have to wait 397 days!
However, today Zhao Deliang is focusing on another number - "186 days."
That is half a year, which is the waiting time for pregnant couples. In Nanyang, the allocation of public housing follows a principle - couples are given priority and families are given priority.
There is no need to buy a house in Nanyang. For ordinary people, they can solve the housing problem by applying for public housing. Although they need to pay rent every month, the rent is extremely cheap. The expenditure is only equivalent to about 10% of the income of ordinary people.
And it is the income of one spouse. It is this kind of welfare public housing and rent that allows all Nanyang people to not have to worry about housing.
They only need to get married and have children, and they will definitely be able to solve the housing problem. This is the core of Nanyang-style life, and it is also the fundamental reason why there is no real estate industry here - houses have long become an integral part of people's lives here. Basic welfare, not a lucrative business.
Finally, after waiting for half an hour, it was Zhao Deliang's turn.
"Hello, this is my application form, and this is the hospital certification letter."
The application form contains his previous application information, and the hospital certification letter proves that his wife is pregnant. This is all that is needed If you write a letter, you can move in half a year in advance, but no one dares to issue a false certificate, not only because the doctor who issues the false certificate will have his license revoked and be held criminally responsible, but also the buyer will also pay the price - not only will he lose the application for publicity for life, not only lose the qualifications for low-rent apartments, but also need to bear criminal responsibility.
In short, the cost is so heavy that no one will dare to try it. But even so, the auditor still carefully checked the watermark, number and other anti-counterfeiting information of the certification letter, and took out Zhao Deliang's previous application form. After checking one by one, he accepted the information, replaced the application form for him, and stamped it again. Finally, he said.
"Congratulations, Mr. Zhao! I wish you and your wife a baby and a new home as soon as possible!"
"Thank you, thank you..."
Zhao Deliang received the application form with a smile on his face. Well...he has a family!
After 186 days, he can take Mary to move to their new home. At that time, not only will Maotou and the others be able to sit at home often, but his children will also be born and grow up in their new home. Study, go to school, get married, have children... By then, they will also have their own families.
After walking out of the public housing application office, Zhao Deliang looked up at the sky with a spring breeze on his face. The sun was shining brightly, the sky was blue and white clouds, and the warm wind was blowing on his body, which made him feel very comfortable.
In an instant, he smiled.
......This is Nanyang!
This is his home!
