Chapter 339 Salary
Gu Yu couldn't help but sigh as he looked at his uncle who was already drunk and unconscious, but still whispered, "I am Ouyang Yi, not Lao Ou."
He used to be a man of great learning and talent. He was a top student at Tsinghua University and a talented man who had studied abroad. He had the noble pride of an intellectual.
As the saying goes, the higher you climb, the harder you fall. The more proud Ouyang Yi was before, the more humiliated he became after being demoted.
He spent the best ten years of his life on this isolated island where even fresh water had to be shipped in from outside.
Going to the sea, fishing, catching the tide, carrying things and undergoing labor reform; being subject to supervision by others at any time, without human dignity, without freedom of thought, walking like zombies.
More importantly, he has to obey the orders of the person he despises the most, and respond to other people's "Old Ou" with a smile.
He would rather get to know the people on the island again with a new identity as Lao Ou, because his past knowledge and experiences were a shame to him at that time.
And his wife An Xin also went through the hardships of life, the difficulties of struggle, and the helpless thoughts in this way.
The torrent of time has swept away An Xin's youth and her years, and the speed at which it is swept away is tens of thousands times faster than that of ordinary people.
All that is left is a scarred body with deep marks of time and a weathered heart.
Life is sometimes really interesting. Ouyang Yi may be looking back on the past decade.
At the dinner table, Ouyang Yi was crying, An Jie and An Xin were also shedding tears, and even Jiang Defu had red eyes.
Anran and Annuo felt sad and distressed when they saw their father like this and shed tears.
"It's all over. Things will get better and better in the future." Gu Yu comforted softly.
But the two sisters still cried sadly. At this time, words were inevitably a little pale. After emotions arise, there must be a process of venting.
While having breakfast the next day, Jiang Defu jokingly asked Ouyang Yi if he wanted to do something else, and also told him about the couple's decision last night.
Jiang Defu and An Jie knew what Ouyang Yi's family had been through over the years.
Although the hat was taken off, Ouyang Yi could still go back to work.
But the employment problem of the two daughters was difficult to solve. After all, they came from poor families, and there were many educated youth waiting for jobs in the city.
In order to help their family live a better life, Jiang Defu decided to send An Ran and An Nuo to the army.
Ouyang Yi's family was naturally grateful and happy upon hearing this. An Xin quickly asked her two daughters to stand up and express her gratitude.
At this point, all of An Jie's nephews, nieces, and nephews were sent to serve in the army by Jiang Defu.
Some are happy and some are sad. Jiang Dehua is not happy, and Jiang Yafei is the same.
But there is a difference between the two. Jiang Dehua simply thinks that the An family has benefited from his third brother's influence.
There are no arrangements for any relatives on the Jiang family side, but there really aren't many relatives on the Jiang family side.
Jiang Yafei was not happy that her father helped An Ran and An Nuo, especially since An Yi was sent to the army.
These two are unhappy, and it is foreseeable that the peaceful life of the Jiang family will be disrupted.
Gu Yu's novel "Drawing Sword" was polished by Ouyang Yi, and the description of some details became more vivid.
Jiang Defu also finished reading it and sent it out. Not long after, he received a call from an old comrade.
The People's Liberation Army Press has decided to publish the book, and the specific details will be discussed after he comes to the island.
At this time, there was no such thing as royalties. The rewards that Gu Yu received for his previous contributions were also given out in the form of consolation or other names.
This is also due to Gu Yu's background and Jiang Defu's relationship, plus the praise from the great man, but in summary, there is not much money.
A few days later, Deputy Editor-in-Chief Zheng of the PLA Publishing House came to Songshan Island.
He was accompanied to the island by Deputy Director Wang of Beijing Film Studio.
Gu Yu's novels and scripts have been recognized by publishers and film studios.
After a meeting and discussion at the publishing house, it was decided to hire Gu Yu as the editor of the publishing house.
After consulting various suggestions, the salary standard was set at administrative level 18, and Gu Yu also became a consultant for the Beijing Film Studio.
"Oh my God, does this mean that Xiaoyu's salary is higher than his father's?"
After seeing off Deputy Editor-in-Chief Zheng and Deputy Factory Director Wang, Jiang Dehua could no longer hold back his surprise, and his excited hometown accent popped up again.
In this era, except for the military, almost all industries implemented two wage systems, namely the political series and the technical series wage system.
The People's Liberation Army Press is a public institution, so it naturally implements administrative-level salary standards.
Gu Yu was exceptionally assigned to administrative level 18, deputy section level, mainly because his father died in the line of duty.
There is also his fame, and of course it also reflects his own writing ability.
Jiang Defu is a division-level cadre, with a monthly salary of 83 yuan, and Gu Yu is at the 18th level of deputy section chief, with a monthly salary of 87.5 yuan, 4.5 yuan more than his adoptive father.
"Brother, I want to eat chocolate! I want imported chocolate!"
"I want it too, I want it too!"
The two sisters Jiang Yafei and Jiang Yaning hugged Gu Yu's arms on the left and right, and kept acting coquettishly. Wei Min also looked at Gu Yu with a flattering smile on his face.
"Okay, buy them all." Gu Yu replied with a smile. He really didn't care about the salary or money.
"What are you buying? Imported goods. Why not buy some domestic chocolate candies? Xiaoyu, don't spoil them.
Your salary may seem high, but you have to be moderate, or you will have nothing left after a month. "Anjie said with great experience.
It was true that with Jiang Defu and her combined salary, they did not have any savings as she managed the household.
"Hmph, this is my brother's salary, he has the right to use it freely. Brother, my mother is just jealous and sees that you are not going to buy anything for her." Jiang Yafei is not so easy to get rid of.
"How dare you talk to your mother?"
An Jie was so angry when he heard that that he wanted to hit Ya Fei, and she was so scared that she quickly hid behind Gu Yu.
"Mom, Yafei is just joking with you. Don't worry, I won't spend it recklessly. Besides, I eat and live at home every day, how can I spend money?"
Gu Yu quickly helped Jiang Yafei pull down An Jie's raised hand and took her to sit on the sofa.
"Don't worry, it's just these greedy guys who probably always ask you to buy snacks for them."
Anjie glared at the children. Yaning and Weimin stood at attention obediently and shook their heads to indicate that they did not know.
When her gaze shifted to Jiang Yafei, she quickly put on a well-behaved smile.
It was just that An Jie's advance warning was not very effective. When Gu Yu received his first month's salary, he bought gifts for everyone in the family.
I bought a box of Hershey chocolate for Yafiya, Ning Weimin, and headpieces for my two sisters, and a white shirt for Weidong.
I bought a dressing mirror for Jiang Dehua, a pair of leather shoes for Jiang Defu, and a box of coffee for An Jie.
These things cannot be bought on the island. Gu Yu asked Deputy Factory Director Wang to buy them at the Friendship Store.
It is relatively easier to exchange foreign exchange vouchers for film studios.
Along with the items was a detailed list, which showed that Gu Yu not only spent all this month's salary, but also took out an advance of 28 yuan for next month.
Looking at Anjie, who was complaining but happily admiring the coffee box, and the others who were just happy, Gu Yu felt that the money was worth it.
