Year: I planted trees in Saihanba

"Old Qu, Old Chen, this is Xia Tian, ​​a top student who graduated from Beijing Forestry University!"

After introducing the two elderly comrades in the room.

Yu Zhenglai then introduced Xia Tian to the two veteran comrades.

"I can't accept that title, I can't accept that title of a top student. I'm a junior student. I've met Section Chief Qu, Elder Yan, ah no, Engineer Chen!"

Xia Tian was very humble and low-key, and greeted the two veteran comrades.

Section Chief Qu looked at Xia Tian with a hint of curiosity.

"Comrade Xia, right?"

"Section Chief Qu, hello!"

Xia Tian nodded, wondering what the old man was up to.

"You said you graduated from Beijing Forestry University?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"So, what brings you to our Weichang County Forestry Bureau?"

"Hey, Lao Qu!"

Before Xia Tian could speak, Yu Zheng interrupted him.

"That's right, I told the ministry I wanted to go to the grassroots level, and the ministry assigned me here!"

Xia Tian looked at Qu He and still offered an explanation.

"Oh, that's how it is!"

Qu He nodded, picked up the enamel mug, and took a sip of water.

"Well, I did go to the ministry before the New Year!"

Yu Zheng came to see Xia Tian and explained to Qu He, then continued speaking.

"Minister Qin said he would assign me a college student, namely Comrade Xia!"

"At that time, Minister Qin told us to come back together."

"As it turns out, Comrade Xia said she had some things to take care of and didn't come back with me!"

"I thought Comrade Xia wasn't coming!"

"So after I came back, I didn't tell you about this. It's my fault!"

"Comrade Xia, I also need to apologize to you!"

"I shouldn't have judged a gentleman by my own petty standards!"

Yu Zhenglai stood up and bowed deeply to Xia Tian.

Yu Zhenglai has always been a straightforward person; he says whatever comes to mind.

Summer was caught off guard by Yu Zheng's sudden words and actions.

"Director Yu, what are you doing?"

Xia Tian quickly helped Yu Zheng up and helped him sit down in his seat.

Teacher Yan, or rather, Engineer Chen, nodded upon hearing Xia Tian's identity.

"I am a brick in the revolution; I will be moved wherever I am needed!"

"Since the organization sent me here, there must be a reason!"

"All I can do is obey the organization's arrangements!"

Qu He, who was standing to the side, also lit up when he heard Xia Tian's words.

"I am a brick in the revolution; I will be moved wherever I am needed!"

Qu He savored Xia Tian's words, finding them increasingly insightful.

"Director Yu, Xia Tian reporting for duty!"

Just as Qu was pondering what to say in the summer.

Xia Tian took out her file and letter of introduction from the bag she was carrying.

It was handed over very solemnly to Yu Zheng, who was sitting in the chair.

Upon seeing this, Yu Zhenglai quickly took the materials that Xia Tian handed over.

After receiving it, he disregarded the presence of Qu He and Engineer Chen.

He immediately started browsing through them.

Seeing this, Xia Tian wanted to say something, but ultimately said nothing.

"Yeah!"

"What a gem! An outstanding graduate of Beijing Forestry University."

"Afforestation major, all grades are excellent!"

"This is exactly the kind of talent we need!"

Yu Zheng looked at Xia Tian's file, nodded, and continued reading.

When I saw the section on family members, I fell silent.

He never imagined that Xia Tian was actually the orphan of a martyr.

Yu Zheng quickly finished reviewing Xia Tian's file and letter of introduction.

"Okay, Comrade Xia!"

"On behalf of the Weichang County Forestry Bureau, I welcome you!"

Yu Zhenglai put away Xia Tian's file and solemnly extended his hand.

Seeing this, Xia Tian quickly stepped forward and grasped Yu Zhenglai's outstretched right hand.

"It's an honor to join the Weichang County Forestry Bureau!"

"I hope Director Yu will take good care of me in the future!"

"Good good!"

Yu Zheng patted Xia Tian's hand, gesturing for him to sit down first.

"Old Qu, Old Chen, you two go back first!"

"Comrade Xia and I are having a talk!"

"it is good!"

Engineer Chen and Qu He stood up together and walked out of the office.

"Old Chen, what do you think of this Comrade Xia?"

On the way, Qu He and Engineer Chen were talking.

"It's hard to say!"

"Oh?! What do you mean?"

"Judging from what Lao Yu said just now, this Xia Xia works in the Beiping department."

"They volunteered to go to the grassroots level, probably because they didn't know the situation here, and Lao Yu ended up getting the job."

"I reckon if he knew what was going on here, he'd immediately apply to be transferred back to the ministry!"

Engineer Chen analyzed the situation in this way.

Qu He nodded after listening.

However, Qu He still felt a little regretful.

Listening to Xia Tian's speech, he felt that he was cut out for political work!

Pity!

Xia Tian had no idea that the two old men were cricketing at him behind his back.

At this moment, he is chatting with Yu Zheng.

"Xia, is it okay for me to call you that?"

"Of course, no problem, Director Yu!"

"Don't call me Director Yu anymore. If you don't mind, just call me Uncle Yu in private!"

"Alright, Uncle Yu!"

Summer will naturally climb up the pole.

Director Yu can be considered a local bigwig.

The local bully is trying to befriend him; he's not stupid.

"Here's the thing, Xia, I'll tentatively set your level at 22. We'll raise it later based on the specific circumstances. Is that okay with you?"

Xia Tian was somewhat surprised by Yu Zhenglai's speech.

He certainly knew about the system that came into effect this year.

It was precisely because he knew that he was surprised.

He didn't expect that Lao Yu would set him the salary level of a college graduate who had just become a full-time employee.

Who would have thought that Lao Yu, this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, would betray the revolution?

Bah, they'll even pull strings for themselves.

"Director Yu, isn't this against the rules?"

"Forget about rules and regulations, here, I am the biggest rule."

As Yu Zhenglai spoke, what he was thinking was...

"If we don't give Xia a higher salary and benefits, then..."

"His small temple is probably not enough to keep this great Buddha!"

"If he could, he'd even give Xia Tian the salary and benefits of a Level 18 student!"

What Yu Zhenglai is thinking is not important.

What else could Xia Tian do after listening to Lao Yu's advice?

Of course, I gladly accepted.

"Okay, then it's settled!"

"Xia, you should go back and rest first!"

"Okay, Director Yu, but where am I staying?"

"Oh right, look at my brain!"

"Come on, come on, I'll take you to your place!"

Yu Zheng led Xia Tian to the back.

"This is our bureau's dormitory!"

Old Yu led Xia Tian to a row of rooms in the backyard of the Forestry Bureau.

"Xia, you can stay here for now. If you're comfortable, stay; if not, just let me know and I'll make arrangements for you!"

"Thank you so much, Uncle Yu!"

Summer nodded and pushed open the door to the room.

"Uncle Yu, isn't this against the rules?"

In the summer, the small room contained only a double bed and a set of table and chairs.

I knew this was a single room.

"You silly child, you're still being so polite with your Uncle Yu!"

"Hey, forget about rules, just stay here!"

"If you can't get used to living here, then tell your Uncle Yu!"

"Then I'll stay here for now?"

Xia Tian didn't care why Yu Zheng came.

As the saying goes, only a fool wouldn't take advantage of a good deal!

……

As an aside, the 30-level salary system was actually implemented in 1956.

However, this is a fictional world, and everything will proceed according to the author's plan.

Another point is the relationship between Yu Zhenglai and Minister Qin. Here, it's set up that Minister Qin is Yu Zhenglai's former boss!
