Niu Chunxiang is now very self-motivated and wants to improve his cultural level and position. She didn't go to school much as a child, and in order to support her younger siblings, she dropped out of school early to work as a family farmer.

Seeing that the general environment of Aoshan Town has changed, and several factories have been established, Niu Chunxiang germinated the idea of pursuing progress. It's not that she doesn't dislike being a worker, but she doesn't want to be too far behind among her sisters.

Among the four sisters, Niu Dongxiang is the most promising. She is currently studying at Tsinghua University, and once she graduates, she will have to start at a level that is many times higher than her three older sisters.

In addition, Niu Qiuxiang is the most promising. She is now the head of the quality department of the Asia Machinery Factory, Niu Xiaoqiang originally just wanted to seconded her to the Asia Machinery Factory for emergency, and by the way, let her pass on the rigorous work style to the Asia Machinery Factory.

Unexpectedly, Niu Qiuxiang became more and more energetic, and learned a lot of mechanical processing knowledge in private, and she was more handy at work, so Niu Xiaoqiang was not willing to transfer her back to the cave factory, but let her continue to work in the Asian Machinery Factory.

The second Niu Xia Xiang used to be an ordinary textile worker, and because of her excellent performance in recent months, she has been promoted to team leader in the factory. Looking at it this way, Niu Chunxiang is the most backward of the four sisters.

Niu Chunxiang didn't care about anything before, and that's because she didn't have that condition. Now with this condition, the self-motivation buried in her heart naturally bursts out.

Now she goes to the literacy class of the cave factory every day, and has gone from an illiterate person to an excellent student in the literacy class. It is estimated that in a while, she will be able to get her diploma from the literacy class.

This certificate is not recognized by the education department and can only be used within the factory. With this diploma recognized by the factory, you can have a great advantage in terms of promotion. Niu Chunxiang's usual work attitude is extremely good, as long as the graduation certificate is in hand, it is basically a sure thing that she will be promoted to a cadre.

Niu Xiuying often goes to Niu Xiaoqiang's house for dinner, if the rent hadn't expired, she would have moved to Niu Xiaoqiang's house a long time ago. Although Niu Chunxiang is married, her wedding house is built in Aoshan Town, which is very close to Niujia Village, and she often goes home to reunite with her family. The two can often see that with Niu Chunxiang's encouragement, Niu Xiuying also came up with the idea of pursuing progress.

However, she still has some concerns, and the main concern comes from Niu Xiaoqiang.

Niu Xiaoqiang told her the formula of super carbon steel, Niu Xiuying knew that her work was very important to Niu Xiaoqiang, otherwise there were so many people, why did Niu Xiaoqiang choose to let himself be an ingredient?

If she goes to a literacy class, it may make Niu Xiaoqiang feel that he doesn't want to be an ingredient. Niu Xiaoqiang trusts himself so much, and cares so much about himself, how can he let him down?

Thinking of this, Niu Xiuying hurriedly added, "Brother Xiaoqiang, if you don't agree, I won't go." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang laughed and waved his hand, "This is a good thing, how can I disagree? If you want to go to the literacy class to study, just go, I won't have any opinion, what I'm worried about is your body, you have to do such heavy work every day, and you have to go to the literacy class during the break, will this exhaust you?"

Literacy classes were set up in cave factories, where most of the workers were peasants and had little education. There are no literacy classes in the Asian Machinery Factory, and all the workers here have received formal education and have studied in technical schools, so there is no need for literacy classes here.

Niu Xiuying smiled, "As long as you agree, my health is very good, I can bear the heavy farm work before, and there is no problem at all in going to the literacy class." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang snorted, "Yingzi, I know you want to pursue progress, but your job position is a bit special, even if you get the graduation certificate issued by the literacy class, you can't be promoted like others, of course, I will never let you suffer, although I can't promote you as a cadre, but I can help you improve in terms of salary, I hope you don't mind." ”

The main reason why Niu Xiuying wants to pursue progress is to get a higher salary. She is not very interested in being a cadre, she just wants to earn more money through the promotion of her position.

Her father's old wounds had fallen to the root of the disease and needed to be treated with medicine. My mother was frail and sickly and couldn't do too much work. As for the grandparents, they are too old to bear the heavy farm work at home. As a result, the whole family can only rely on Niu Xiuying's salary to live.

When she heard that Niu Xiaoqiang was going to give her a salary increase, Niu Xiuying was very happy, but on the surface, she was still a little embarrassed, "Brother Xiaoqiang, my salary is about the same as that of many senior technicians, will it be inappropriate to add more?"

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled slightly, "Your job position is the most special in the whole factory, you don't need to compare with others, of course, if others have opinions on you, it will inevitably affect your daily work, so let's do it, in the future, your salary will be paid by the financial section chief Wang personally, I will explain to him, to ensure that you will not let others know the number of your salary, as for the amount of salary increase......"

Niu Xiaoqiang said this, pondered for a moment, and then made a decision: "After you get the graduation certificate of the literacy class, I will increase your salary level by 20% on the existing basis, and at the end of the year, I will also give you a post allowance of 100 yuan, are you satisfied?"

Niu Xiuying nodded happily, "Such a good treatment, of course I am very satisfied, thank you Brother Xiaoqiang for your care!"

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled and reminded, "I'll increase your salary, but don't forget our original agreement, about the secret of the material formula, except for my master, you must not tell anyone else, without my permission, even if it is my family, you can't leak secrets, do you understand?"

Niu Xiuying immediately nodded, "Don't worry, Brother Xiaoqiang, I will definitely not leak secrets." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang hummed with satisfaction: "I'm relieved." ”

Next, the two sat and chatted, and after chatting for a long time, Huang Li's voice sounded outside the door, "Secretary Niu, are you inside?"

Niu Xiaoqiang got up and opened the door, "Here, Sister Huang, what's the matter with you?"

Huang Li smiled and said, "Director Fang asked me to come to you, saying that a high-level meeting was going to be held, and everyone else had arrived, and everyone was waiting for you." ”
