Chapter 362 I'm only 14 years old, do I have to go to work?
66年年初，政府发行了第三套钱币的1965版10元及1962版1角纸币。
The exchange rate with the second set of coins is 1:1, that is, the face value of the third set of coins and the second set of coins are equal, and they are circulated mixed in the market.
1960版1角纸币已在62年发行；1960版2元及1962版2角纸币，则在64年发行；1元及5元纸币将在69年发行；5角纸币将在74年发行。
The third set of coins was based on the second set of coins. The 3 yuan note in the second set of coins was cancelled and the "Big Black Ten" was recalled.
增加了1角、2角、5角和1元四种金属币（80年发行），全套面值合计18.80元。
The 1962 edition of the 1-cent banknote issued this year has a brown pattern in the middle and green at both ends on the back, which is called "back green". A small number of them are printed on hollow five-star watermark banknote paper, called "back green watermark", which is a treasure among the third set of coins.
Zhou Rong checked the information and put the coins into the space for valuation. The price of a single brand new 1962 edition "One-cent green watermark note" banknote is about 3 yuan.
According to data, the market price of a complete set of coins is between 4 and 5 yuan.
Zhou Rong went to the bank and exchanged 200 brand new "green watermark" notes. She also exchanged some new notes of other denominations and deposited them into the space...
On April 66, 4, the Central Committee issued the "Opinions on the Issue of Putting Politics in Command".
The "Opinion" proposes: Now many factories rely on bonuses as the main incentive, and rural areas rely on work points as the main incentive, which are actually material incentives.
From now on, we will only provide spiritual encouragement and not material incentives.
We should praise those who do a good job and criticize those who do a bad job, without resorting to either material incentives or material punishments, and only then can we truly put politics in command.
The Central Committee’s instruction: Some of the bonus systems currently in place are not in line with the spirit of putting politics in command. Mobilizing the enthusiasm of the masses does not rely on rewards such as wages or work points, but on the continuous improvement of people’s political awareness.
After the "Opinion" was issued, various units cancelled the bonus system and implemented spiritual encouragement...
In recent years, Shengli Brigade has exchanged materials with textile factories, towel factories, thermos bottle factories, farm tool factories, etc. many times. The villagers are happy and the factories are also happy.
After the new policy came out, they had to stop "cooperation".
Some villagers felt that the organization's new policies harmed their interests, so they complained to the team leader in private, and were reported to Zhou Chuanyi.
After so many years of working in official circles, Zhou Chuanyi has long understood one thing: the organization's policies cannot be wrong, and one must not discuss them privately, otherwise one will bring disaster upon oneself.
The letter Zhou Rong wrote back also hinted at this.
Zhou Chuanyi wanted to sound a wake-up call for everyone, so he immediately brought those people with negative thoughts and low political awareness to a criticism meeting.
With this previous experience, the villagers who were dissatisfied with the new policy immediately became obedient...
In the past, the radio factory had set up different levels of bonus rewards for employees’ outstanding performance, and the R&D department was the department most likely to receive bonuses.
Now, in response to organizational policies, the bonus system has to be cancelled.
Some people were dissatisfied but did not want to step forward themselves. They thought Zhou Jiaguang was a new employee and was young, so they complained to him and hinted that he should go to the leadership to give feedback.
Zhou Jiaguang always remembered what his eldest sister said: Trouble comes from the mouth, and no one except his parents wants him to live a good life.
Zhou Jiaguang will have to work with his colleagues day and night in the future, and he doesn't want to make enemies. Anyone who comes to him to complain, he will listen happily, and then do what he should do, just as if his ears were blown by the wind.
Seeing that he was dazed and didn't understand what they said, everyone stopped going to him to "complain" and instead expressed their thoughts in the form of anonymous letters.
Not only did it have no effect, the leader also traced the source of the anonymous letter, and finally found out the writer by comparing the handwriting.
After being criticized, they were sent to the countryside for "training"...
At the end of April, Zhou Rong asked Zhou Qinghong, who came to visit at home, which unit he wanted to work for.
Zhou Qinghong: "We will graduate in July, and the school will make corresponding arrangements next month. If nothing unexpected happens, we will be apprentices in equipment factories, or we may go to other places.
I heard from my classmates that the factory’s employee quota is full now. If you want to stay in the city, you have to give gifts, or you have to go out of town or go directly to the countryside.”
Zhou Rong: "Do your parents have any plans for your work?"
Zhou Qinghong: "My father wants me to work in the steel mill. He said that if I am willing, he will give gifts to the factory director and get a quota. But I am only 14 years old and do not meet the recruitment requirements. My father wants to change my household registration to 16 years old.
But I don’t want to go to the steel mill, I want to go to the radio factory. Although I can’t invent like my uncle, I am happy and motivated to play around with those novel electronic devices! ”
Zhou Rong: "You can't just do your job for a short time. If you work in a radio factory, you'll probably have to work there for the rest of your life. Can you stick with it?"
Zhou Qinghong: “Yes!”
Zhou Rong: "Okay, a real man should keep his word! I will go to your uncle and see if I can get a job for you.
If you can get into the radio factory, work hard there. If you can't get in, go to the steel factory. Having a job is better than going to the countryside."
Zhou Qinghong: "Understood, I'll follow my aunt's arrangements!"
That night, Zhou Rong took Nini to have a long talk and said that she had heard a rumor that the college entrance examination would be cancelled soon, and asked her whether she should get a job while she could still buy one.
Nini asked in astonishment: "Mom, where did you get this gossip?!"
Zhou Rong: "Don't worry about this. Don't tell anyone else about this. Otherwise, if it causes panic or someone tracks you down, I will cut off all ties with you."
Nini: "...I'm only 14 years old. Do I have to go to work? The factory probably won't accept me, right?"
Zhou Rong: "I can go and make sure your age is changed to 16."
Nini: "...Mom, I'm concentrating on preparing for the college entrance exam and I don't think about going to work in the short term. My mind is in a mess now. Can you let me think about it for a while?"
Zhou Rong: "Okay."
Nini was very conflicted and never gave Zhou Rong an answer.
Zhou Rong didn't rush her. The child was indeed still young, and forcing her to go to work would create a rebellious mentality, making it easy for her to be exploited or bullied at work.
During special years, words spoken with an immature mind may very likely bring devastating disaster to the family.
The two sons are not around, the house is lonely, it's nice to have my little girl with me...
At Zhou Rong's request, Zhou Jiaguang bought some cigarettes, alcohol, and cakes for the director of the personnel department, and also stuffed him with a red envelope of 60 yuan, saying that he wanted to help his nephew get a recruitment quota.
The director of the personnel department accepted the cigarettes, alcohol and cakes, but did not take the red envelope.
He had read Zhou Jiaguang's file. His three sisters were all cadres with high positions. His third brother-in-law was an officer. His parents and brother also had jobs. Such a family was very powerful and he might need help in the future.
The factory is hiring anyway, so why not do the Zhou family a favor...
