Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

Chapter 923 Son's Dissatisfaction

"Okay, I'll find you a job then. By the way, what are you good at?"

Zhou Tian continued to ask, as for going to work, it was not a difficult thing for him at all. On the contrary, because Wu Yue'e had a background in the Peninsula, it might be more difficult for her to join the organization. As for work, that was just a matter of a word from him.

“Can I teach, then?”

Wu Yue'e asked somewhat nervously.

"Teaching, what did you graduate from, wife?"

After hearing Wu Yue'e's answer, Zhou Tian suddenly became a little uneasy. He then remembered that although he had known Wu Yue'e for such a long time, he actually didn't know much about many things about her.

Just like the academic qualifications.

"I graduated from high school. Before liberation, I went to a girls' middle school. But later on..."

As she spoke, her expression suddenly became lonely: "Because of the war, my family fell into poverty!"

Zhou Tian and Shen Yulin both knew that Wu Yue'e was definitely not telling the truth, but they didn't care much about it. Shen Yulin quickly reached out her jade hand, grabbed Wu Yue'e's hand and comforted her: "Okay, sister Yue'e, don't think about those sad things. Now you are a member of our Zhou family. As long as we live our lives well, that's enough, isn't it?"

"Yes, honey, we will all be with you. Besides, don't you still have me, your husband, your eldest sister, and the children? Don't be sad!"

Zhou Tian also echoed.

"Ok!"

Wu Yue'e looked at the two people who seemed to be concerned about her and nodded gently, with a hint of emotion in her beautiful eyes.

The next day, Zhou Tian had just arrived at the office and had not yet sat down when he heard the phone on the desk suddenly ring.

"Hello, this is the satellite base, I'm Zhou Tian!"

Zhou Tian answered the phone loudly.

"Xiao Zhou, it's me!"

Hearing the familiar voice on the other end of the phone, his face immediately became serious: "Hello, Chief!"

"Well, Xiaotian, the higher-ups have already learned about everything that happened at the base, and they highly appreciate your timely capture of all the pests in the base. So, in order to commend your base for this action, the higher-ups have decided to reward all the people in your base who participated in this operation with second-class individual merit!"

The old leader's words immediately made him unable to hold back the smile on his face, and he couldn't help but ask anxiously.

"Old Chief, is this true?"

You know, this is a second-class merit. As the saying goes, the third-class merit can be received while standing, the second-class merit can be received while lying down, and the first-class merit can only be received by most people after their death. But now all the people involved in their entire base have received second-class merit, which makes him simply unable to believe it.

Moreover, as long as ordinary people have this honor, promotion and salary increase are basically a sure thing.

He could already imagine the surprised looks on Fu Lin and Chang Wen's faces when he told them the news.

"How could this be false? Xiaotian, although you handled the situation in the base in a timely manner, you were inevitably a little impatient. Now the leadership of the entire base has lost one-third after your disturbance. People will be assigned to take over. You must pay attention at all times. Also, you can also give some opinions to the many people who will take over this time, but remember, these people must be people you trust, understand?"

"Understood, Chief!"

Zhou Tian's smile suddenly disappeared and he nodded heavily.

He also understood some of the meaning behind the old leader's words.

"That's good to understand. But no matter what, you are still the priority in the base. And the reason we sent you to the base is to speed up the development of rockets and satellites, as well as the research progress of various projects. You should not put the cart before the horse. You should be aware of the interests involved. So, Xiaotian, work hard. Don't let us down, and don't let the country down!"

"Yes, Commander, Xiaotian understands and promises not to disappoint the higher-ups and the country!"

Zhou Tian assured the leader on the other end of the phone, then hung up the phone and began to ponder in silence. After a long time, he murmured, "Hey, it seems that this is a warning from the higher-ups!"

Although he did clear out all the pests and spies in the base, in the final analysis, the reason why he was sent here was to speed up the progress of various research projects in the base.

Instead of asking him to manage these things, their superiors hope that he can focus all his energy on scientific research rather than these trivial matters.

Although the old chief only said half of his words just now, he also knew that it seemed that many of the people sent by the higher-ups this time might be sent by senior officials who were somewhat dissatisfied with him.

After thinking about it and recalling what he had done during this period, he still had no regrets. After all, if he could not catch these so-called parasites and spies, he estimated that no matter how well he developed the base and how advanced the technology was, leaks would be inevitable.

Instead of being passive like this, he might as well take the initiative. What's more, this also concerns the safety of his family, and he doesn't want his family to live in fear all the time.

As for the old leader's suggestion that he should find some people he trusted to work at the base, he automatically ignored it. It was not that he didn't want to, but that he couldn't.

Although it seems that as long as they are willing to come to the base to work, their rank will definitely be raised by a level, but the conditions here themselves are destined to make them come here to suffer.

What are the conditions in Sijiu City? What are the conditions here? If he didn't really want to stay away from Sijiu City, he might not even be willing to come here.

But after thinking about it, he decided to follow the old leader's instructions and ask. After all, this was also an opportunity, right?

After thinking about it, he first called Song Weiguo and others.

Sure enough, they received Zhou Tian's call. Several people spoke hesitantly, and Zhou Tian couldn't help but feel a lot gloomy.

After he hung up the phone, he sighed helplessly. Although he knew this would be the result, for some reason, he still felt a little upset.

At this moment, another phone call came in. He picked up the phone and immediately heard the voice of his son Zhou Zhiqiu.

"Dad, I heard that a position has appeared in your place. I can upgrade by transferring there, right?"

On the phone, Zhou Zhiqiu asked with a hint of excitement in his voice.

"Zhiqiu, stop messing around, you and your two brothers can't come over!"

Zhou Tian immediately stopped him from saying the next word and directly refused.

"No, Dad. Why? You should know that it will take at least two years for me to be promoted to deputy section chief in the steel mill. Now that I have such a good opportunity, please don't forget about us!"

Zhou Zhiqiu's originally excited voice suddenly stopped, and he said with some dissatisfaction.
