Early morning.
Niu Li yawned as he walked out of the workers' dormitory.
As usual, he went to the communal washing basin to freshen up, then headed to the factory entrance to pick up two steamed buns, planning to eat them on his feet before getting down to work.
Since Niu Li had joined Steel Factory No. 81 and become a glorious worker, two or three months had already passed by.
Having dealt with the crisis of Chewing Bone Tribe's invasion, the steel factory ramped up production, and he quickly got promoted by the factory manager thanks to his hard work, eagerness to learn, and intelligence.
By now, Niu Li had risen from a menial laborer to a foreman in charge of workers five and six, memorizing the operation guidelines and safety handbook issued by the factory. Not only had his monthly salary doubled, but residents of the refuge had also equipped him with a VM.
