Chapter 117 Xu Damao kicks the widow's door (4k)
On Sunday afternoon, Jia Dongxu was buried. What happened on Friday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, counted as three days.
Deputy Director Li has been following this matter all the time. Except for working late at night, he has been there all the time.
According to relevant regulations, the only thing that matters is whether people are dead or alive. It does not matter whose fault it is. The treatment they deserve must not be reduced.
What's more, this was not Jia Dongxu's fault, but a real death on duty caused by aging equipment.
After dinner, Deputy Director Li and his team prepared a meal for the Jia family. The cook was naturally Sha Zhu, who invited some relatives and friends in the yard to have a meal, thus completing the matter from beginning to end.
After taking care of Jia Dongxu's funeral, Deputy Director Li and the Jia family arranged a time to handle the pension matters and left with the factory staff. He was not a relative or friend of the Jia family, so it was impossible for him to stay here forever.
The problem lies in the issue of compensation.
Someone has set their sights on it, but they are not targeting the pension. Everyone knows that pensions exist. Even if they don't know the specific amount and regulations, it is impossible to defraud the money.
Besides, the one-time funeral expenses are not that much. Smart people will not take the risk to make this idea. What they are interested in is something else.
After dinner, Yi Zhonghai called everyone in the courtyard together and held a general meeting to discuss the affairs of the orphans, widows and old mother of the Jia family. This family had old and young people, and the youngest was a pregnant woman. They looked really pitiful.
At the middle table, Yi Zhonghai sat on one side, while Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui sat opposite each other. It was difficult for Liu Haizhong, who had to act as the second uncle with his two broken legs.
Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu were sitting on one side. Banggeng and Xiaodang were there too, but Gao Zhendong felt that this kind of scene was not a good thing for the children, so he gave them some snacks and asked He Yushui to take the two children to He Yushui's place.
Gao Zhendong brought a bench and sat in the crowd. Next to him was Sha Zhu, squatting on the bench like a monkey.
Qin Huairu was dressed in plain white and had mourning clothes on her head, which made many people stare in amazement.
Yi Zhonghai took a sip of water from the teacup to clear his throat, and began to speak: "Dear neighbors, everyone knows about Jia Dongxu's case. It has already happened, and there is nothing we can do about it. But the orphans and widows he left behind still have to live their lives. I invited everyone together today to discuss how to help them."
There was nothing wrong with this statement, and no one said anything.
However, when Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu heard this, they started crying again.
Seeing that no one spoke, Liu Haizhong felt that his chance had come and he could speak, so he also imitated Yi Zhonghai and cleared his throat: "Don't worry, everyone, just speak freely."
This statement is not appropriate here, and it feels even weirder when it comes from Liu Haizhong.
I have to say that Liu Haizhong is really not a decent person. He is useless even when given opportunities.
Yan Bugui kept his mouth shut. He knew that in this situation, if he spoke carelessly, he might lose money.
Someone in the crowd called out, "Uncle, what do you think? Tell us what you think."
Yi Zhonghai put down the teacup and said, "Since everyone thinks highly of us, I will tell you what I think."
"After Dongxu's accident, his mother is the only one in his family who has a food certificate. Seeing that four people in the family have to eat the ration of one person, the affordable food is definitely not enough, and they have to buy a lot of bargain-priced food."
"Dongxu usually has to feed five mouths to feed, three of whom have no food allowance. He didn't save much money to begin with. His family is in even greater trouble now that he's gone. I'm thinking, should we donate some money to help them get through this difficult time?"
In fact, what Yi Zhonghai said was a bit empty. At least in the past few months, the Jia family has not had any difficulties. However, considering that he was raising money for orphans and widows, most people did not have the face to say anything.
Including Gao Zhendong, as long as it is not too excessive, he has no objection to this matter.
Liu Haizhong also agreed with Yi Zhonghai's words. He was obsessed with power, not money. He was a seventh-level blacksmith and his salary of 84 yuan gave him the confidence to not care about this.
But Gao Zhendong knew that someone would definitely tell it.
Yan Bugui opened his mouth and finally made up his mind: "Uncle, these days, it's not easy for everyone. We have all given money as gifts and tried our best to help their family. Do you think this is right?"
Everyone thought that the Third Uncle was smart and wouldn't do anything rash. In fact, he was not smart at all. He had a lot of clever tricks, but no big ones.
Otherwise, in the TV series, he wouldn't have been played like that by Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao after getting rid of Yi Zhonghai.
When someone spoke, there was a whisper below.
"Yes, yes"
"Third Master, what you said makes sense."
"."
This is why Gao Zhendong asked He Yushui to call the two children away. It is not a good thing for children to see neighbors commenting on their family affairs with dissatisfaction.
With Yan Bugui taking the lead, Xu Damao became more motivated.
If the conditions were based on the TV series, Xu Damao would probably not care. He had the Lou family as his foundation and he was in a lucrative position. His performance in the TV series was that he was generous, at least when it came to small sums of money and things.
But he doesn't have the conditions now, and he hasn't cultivated to the level he will reach in a few years. He just followed Yan Bugui's words and fired back, "Third uncle, what you said makes sense. First uncle, don't drag everyone to pay more money just because Dongxu is your disciple. If you want to pay, you pay. I don't have money. Everyone has a family to support."
"Besides, Jia Dongxu just got promoted to a third-level fitter. The funeral expenses are three months' salary. This amount of money is not small. How can their family be in trouble?"
Xu Damao is worthy of being a propaganda man. He is quite familiar with this regulation, but not completely.
The surrounding chatter became louder.
Yi Zhonghai felt a little embarrassed. He looked around, trying to find a helper, and then he saw Gao Zhendong and Sha Zhu.
Logically speaking, given Gao Zhendong's popularity in the yard and his position in the factory, if he asked Gao Zhendong to make the final decision, the matter would basically be settled, but he didn't dare to.
Firstly, he knew that although Gao Zhendong was easy to talk to, he hated being forced to do something. He liked children, and just liked children. He basically didn't interfere with other things in the yard.
Secondly, Gao Zhendong helped Jia Dongxu a lot. Although Jia Dongxu died unexpectedly, it was with the help of Gao Zhendong that he was able to be promoted from a second-level fitter to a third-level fitter. He couldn't be so shameless.
He was afraid that if he didn't grasp Gao Zhendong's temper, Gao Zhendong might say something to him and then this matter would really not be done.
Once Gao Zhendong gets angry, he can really make you feel uncomfortable and you can't find any fault with him. He is not a good guy. You don't need to look at anything else, just look at the two legs in the bangs next to him. But fortunately, Gao Zhendong's conditions are there. If you don't tease him, he will definitely not care and will go with the flow and will not object.
So he pointed to another person: "Shazhu, you speak."
Sha Zhu is not really stupid: "I am a bachelor, I won't starve, everyone knows that I only have 37.5 yuan. Dong Xu and I have a good relationship. Now that he is gone, I am willing to help his family."
This is clearly stated: Dongxu and I are friends, I have good conditions and I am willing, but I only represent myself.
Yan Bugui continued to speak following Sha Zhu's words: "Sha Zhu is right, uncle, how about this matter, just like Sha Zhu did, if everyone feels that they have the ability, they can help each other, if it is really difficult, just show your willingness, and we won't make a unified assessment."
Actually, what Yan Bugui said is quite reasonable. It's not easy for everyone and we have done everything that should be done according to the rules. Yi Zhonghai's move is a bit like kidnapping everyone.
Liu Haizhong also realized that this was a good opportunity to weaken the influence of the first uncle: "Yes, yes, what the third uncle said makes sense. We won't assign responsibilities. We'll just do our best."
Seeing that things were impossible, Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to give up: "Then everyone decide for yourselves. Those who want to help and those who are able to help can hand it over to the Jia family."
Hearing this, Gao Zhendong whispered a few words into Sha Zhu's ear.
When Sha Zhu heard this, he thought it made sense: "Uncle, I won't go. Dongxu just left, and it's not appropriate to run to their house too frequently at this time. I'd better hand it over to you three uncles. With you three uncles as witnesses, no one will suspect that there will be problems with the money."
This made sense and everyone nodded in agreement.
At this time, someone spoke up: "If you ask me, why bother with all this? I have an idea. Qin Huairu, how about you sell me your replacement spot? I'll give you 200 yuan, and half of your salary every month for the next three years. In this way, I'll help you through this difficult time for your family."
This person is none other than Xu Damao.
Speaking of replacement, or in some places it is called taking over, it was a feature of that era.
That is, when a person with a formal job retires or dies on duty, he or she can designate a direct relative to continue his or her employment and directly participate in the work.
Of course, what is replaced is only the establishment, not the same position and level.
This thing is not even so obvious that it is written into the official documents.
For example, in the "Detailed Rules for the Implementation of the Labor Insurance Regulations" promulgated and implemented in 53, Article made relevant provisions.
In actual operations, they may not necessarily be direct relatives, and there are many tricks involved.
Ever since Xu Damao found out about Pang Shuixian's background, he gets angry whenever he sees her, but he can't get rid of her, which makes him feel very aggrieved.
Seeing that Jia Dongxu had died, he came up with the idea of taking her place. Instead of keeping her at home and watching her get angry, it would be better to ask her to go out and make money.
As soon as Xu Damao said this, many people became curious and asked themselves why we didn't think of this. They all rushed towards Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu.
Xu Damao had thought about discussing this matter with the Jia family in private, but in that case, the Jia family would definitely consult Yi Zhonghai. It would be impossible to gain any advantage if he had to negotiate one-on-one with Yi Zhonghai. It would be better for him to try to fish in troubled waters.
Yi Zhonghai saw the chaos and shouted, "Everyone sit down! What are you doing causing trouble?"
These people finally became a little more orderly, but their eyes were still fixed on Qin Huairu. However, this time, the reason for staring at her was different.
Yi Zhonghai then said to Xu Damao: "Xu Damao, you are so ashamed to ask this question? This quota was exchanged for Dongxu's life. Without this job, how will the Jia family live?"
Xu Damao smiled and said, "Uncle, it's not like I don't want to pay. Besides, Qin Huairu is from the countryside, how can she do the work in the factory? According to the regulations, she must have the ability to work before she can be accepted. She doesn't meet the requirements, so why waste this quota? It's better to exchange it for some money."
After saying that, he added proudly, "The funeral expenses for Jia Dongxu are only three months' salary. Even if he is a third-level worker, three months is only 135.6 yuan, which is not enough to sustain his family for long."
What Xu Damao said is both right and wrong. There is such a rule.
However, work ability is actually quite subjective. With so many types of jobs and positions in the Third Steel Rolling Mill, it is actually easy to find one suitable for Qin Huairu.
But Qin Huairu didn't know. She had been doing housework since she got married, so she had no idea about the twists and turns here. She couldn't help but look at Yi Zhonghai and said, "Master, how about me..."
Yi Zhonghai waved his hand and said, "Huai Ru, don't listen to him." But his words were not firm.
Yi Zhonghai was familiar with his part as a fitter, and he didn't know much about administration. Moreover, he was afraid that Xu Damao would use the excuse that Qin Huairu didn't have the ability to do the job to do something bad, which would be troublesome.
But there is one thing he knows: this thing cannot be sold.
Seeing that Qin Huairu was wavering, Xu Damao continued to increase his firepower: "Qin Huairu, let me tell you, if you go to work, you may not be able to get a job, but your family's pension will be reduced."
This frightened Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu. Qin Huairu asked anxiously, "Ah? There is such a thing?"
Xu Damao said proudly: "According to the regulations, if the deceased worker supported two people during his lifetime, he will receive a monthly pension of 40% of his salary. If he supported three or more people, he will receive 50%. This will last until he is no longer eligible to receive it."
Then he pointed at Jia Zhang and said proudly, "According to the regulations, parents are considered supported only when they are over 60, and wives are considered supported only when they are not engaged in paid work. Jia Zhang is not yet , so she definitely cannot be counted. If you go to work again, whether you are selected or not, it will prove that you can engage in paid work, so you cannot be counted."
After saying that, he counted on his fingers and said, "Then only you Banggeng and Xiaodang can count, so you can only get 40% of the pension. Plus you may not be able to get a job, so you can only get 18 yuan a month."
What Xu Damao said was a bit nonsense. I don't know whether he didn't understand or did it on purpose. Anyway, he just wanted to take advantage of the Jia family's confusion and get this thing done.
However, Yi Zhonghai was not clear about these detailed regulations. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it. This made the Jia family even more panicked.
Xu Damao struck while the iron was hot: "Why don't you just not work? You'll have three people to support you, and you can get 200%. Add to that the % I give you every month, and you'll get it all. I'll also give you an extra yuan. Where else can you find such a good thing?"
Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang were terrified. They looked at Yi Zhonghai and said, "Master, how about we sell it?"
At this time, Gao Zhendong couldn't stand it anymore. This Xu Damao was really a piece of shit. He had never seen anyone kick a widow's door like that.
He smiled and said, "Sister-in-law of the Jia family, don't listen to him. Nothing he said is right. You have to take the 50% pension of Dongxu's salary."
Yi Zhonghai, Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu were surprised when they heard what Gao Zhendong said and looked at him.
