Chapter 275: Beating Yan Bugui

So I smiled and tried.

"Hey! Old Yi,

Judging from the way you look at them, do you know that Zhuzi has captured Lin Wenhua and Bai Wenguang?

That’s right, the branch office must publicize the capture of two such important secret service chiefs so that everyone knows the good news.”

But the news he shared only made Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong look at him in bewilderment.
"No, Old Yan, what are you talking about?
Zhuzi has captured Lin Wenhua and Bai Wenguang, how come we don't know? Who told you that?"

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai and the others were not happy about this matter, and that they had a growing feeling that good things had happened to them, Yan Bugui immediately continued to ask,

"It's not that Old Yi didn't know that Zhuzi and his men had captured Bai Wenguang and Lin Wenhua.

So what are you happy about?
Could it be that something good is happening at the steel mill?"

Seeing Yan Bugui asking about the document announced by the steel mill today, Yi Zhonghai and the others all smiled and nodded at the same time.

"It seems that Lao He didn't tell you after he came back.

Old Yan, you also know that before liberation, if we factory workers suffered work-related injuries or deaths, the factory bosses would not ask about it at all.
They just throw the workers out and recruit new ones, without caring about the lives of the workers' families.

For example, Lao Jia, if I hadn't accepted Dongxu as my apprentice, Dongxu would have been kicked out of the steel mill and would have been forced to work odd jobs in the city.
Without a stable income, he and Mrs. Zhang’s lives would be uncertain.”

Yan Bugui certainly knew what Yi Zhonghai said.
If I didn't know that the work of these workers is hard and they can get injured or even die if they are not careful, they are not as safe as teachers.
Yan Bugui would not have such a strong sense of superiority and would not take his identity as a cultural person so seriously.

Now hearing Yi Zhonghai bring this up, he subconsciously said,
"Yeah, I know.

So we all said that Zhang Saozi and Dongxu should thank you, but why are you saying this now? "

Seeing Yan Bugui asking this question with a confused look on his face, Yi Zhonghai said with a smile,

"Hey, of course things are different now than before.

Today, the factory announced the "Labor Insurance Regulations" and the "Draft Implementation Rules of the Labor Insurance Regulations".
There are too many details, so I won't tell you in detail.

All you need to know is that if our workers suffer disability, injury, illness, or death in the future, the state will step in to cover us.

If you get injured or sick at work, you can get free medical treatment.
Even if it is not for work reasons, most expenses can be reimbursed.

As for those who are disabled or dead and cannot continue to work, the state not only gives them money and food every month, but also takes care of the elderly and children at home until they can become self-reliant.

It will also allow immediate family members to take over the job of the deceased worker.

To be more specific, if what happened to Lao Jia happened now, Dongxu could directly replace him and become a formal worker in the steel mill.
There is no need to worry about not having enough food to eat in the future.”

I heard Yi Zhonghai say that the State Council has issued the "Labor Insurance Regulations" and the "Draft Implementation Rules".
Whether these workers are injured, sick or die in the future, the state will be responsible for covering their expenses and even reserve jobs for their families.
Yan Bugui immediately realized that the "Labor Insurance Regulations" and the "Draft Implementation Rules" were many times more important than the news that He Yuzhu had made great contributions and He Daqing had returned to work at Fengzeyuan.

This means that as long as there is a worker in the family, it means they have a stable job and will never have to worry about food and drink for generations.

When Yan Bugui thought about how such good treatment was not available to him as an educated person and a school teacher, he immediately felt very jealous.

But before he could say anything, Jia Dongxu next to him also started to show off.
"That's not all, Uncle Yan.
Before liberation, when we workers got too old to work, the factory would kick us out and not care about our lives at all.

You have to figure out how to provide for your retirement yourself.

But things are different now. The Labor Insurance Regulations now have provisions for pensions.

When our workers retire, the steel mill will pay them a pension subsidy of 30% to 60% of their salary every month based on their length of service.

That is to say, after my master retired, even if he did not work, the steel mill would still pay him a salary every month.
I don’t have to worry about my old age anymore.”

After Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu told each other about the benefits of each other,
Liu Haizhong also stood up timidly at this time.
"Hey, Old Yan, you are a teacher at the school, responsible for teaching students to read and write. You must know how stupid first-grade students are when they first learn to read and write.
After the Labor Insurance Regulations came out, steel mills had to build sanatoriums, homes for the disabled, and nursing homes.

A nursery, or kindergarten, will also be built.

Our children Guangtian and Guangfu will be able to go to kindergarten for preschool education in the future. When they start formal school, their academic performance will definitely be much better than that of your child Jiefang.

Later, your family will liberate this intellectual son.
Their educational level may not even be as high as that of the two workers' sons in our family, Guangtian and Guangfu.
Old Yan, don't show off that you are a cultured person in the yard anymore.
Don't look down on us workers, because we may look down on you in the future."

If today He Yuzhu and his son both performed meritorious service and returned to work at Fengze Garden,

It just made Yan Bugui a little envious.

Then Yan Bugui couldn't stand what Yi Zhonghai and his friends said today about the Labor Insurance Regulations.
Especially Liu Haizhong's last words,

It was like a stab in Yan Bugui's heart.

His identity as a cultural figure, which he was most proud of, was rubbed to the ground over and over again, which dealt a serious blow to Yan Bugui's pride.

When he thought that his son would not be as good as Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu from Liu Haizhong's rough family,
Yan Bugui was so angry that his face flushed.
If Xu Fugui hadn't interrupted him at this time, he would have vomited blood.

"Old Yan, what did you just say about Zhuzi catching Lin Wenhua and Bai Wenguang? What's going on? Did Zhuzi do something great again?"

When Yan Bugui heard Xu Fugui mention He Yuzhu, he immediately thought of He Daqing and felt that he was crazy to give up such a good treatment and resign from the steel mill to go to Fengzeyuan.

After going to Fengzeyuan, he could no longer enjoy the welfare benefits of the steel rolling mill.

Thinking that there was still someone at the bottom, Yan Bugui's face looked a little better, and then he told Xu Fugui about how He Yuzhu and his team arrested the spies of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics in Longxugou today.

After that, he smiled and said,

"By the way, I heard from Lao He that he resigned from the steel mill. Does he not want such good treatment in the factory anymore?"
