"Congratulations, Mr. Jossen, on winning this award for innovation and invention, I heard that the prize money is enough for a down payment on a cottage with a garden." Jossen's desire to buy the villa is no secret in the shipyard.

At the gate of the Manchester City Shipyard, Lao Huang was sweeping the hardened factory road with a broom in his hand, and suddenly it seemed that the man who came out of the factory stopped his work and stepped forward.

"Oh, thank you, Lao Huang, I booked a place at the Shangri-La Hotel tomorrow night, and you can come over then."

Jossen, who won the general, was in good spirits, and it was indeed an accident to win the award this time, and even he himself couldn't believe it was true. Until yesterday, You Nanzhe personally called him into the office.

Jossen, congratulations on winning the Genesis Invention Award, which will soon come down along with this month's salary. The questions you ask and the modification points play a key role in the whole ship. In the office, You Nanzhe politely motioned for the English-born shipbuilder to sit down, and told him the news of his award.

Although the transformation points he proposed were only a small suggestion, and it was not worth the huge prize money in terms of cost or all aspects, in order to encourage invention and innovation, You Nanzhe personally signed his list of winners.

It can be said that Jossen is a lucky one, because the shipyard needs everyone to constantly innovate and break through the inherent shackles of thinking, so he only made a small change and won a large bonus.

This had to be a shock to all the workers in the shipyard, who could never have imagined that such a small change would be able to get the money that the bonus would supposedly cover the down payment on a townhouse.

Even some of them now keep sighing and regretting why they didn't bring it up in the first place, and keep the mast shorter, I also thought of this, but I didn't say it because I felt that it would affect the speed when sailing.

For those shipyard workers who have not yet obtained an Australian green card, if they can win the award, they will be recommended by You Nanzhe, the general manager and chief engineer of the shipyard, and be given priority to join the Australian nationality qualification.

Priority to join the Australian nationality is too heavy for some people who still hold migrant workers' ID cards, not only their wages will be affected, but also their children's school and their housing loans will be affected.

If they become official Australian immigrants, their children will also be able to study for free like the children of those who are full residents, and they can also apply for public rental housing or buy a small villa or commercial house with a bank loan.

Today is the 25th of the end of the month, which is the day when the shipyard pays salaries, in addition to getting a fixed monthly salary, Jossen also has an extra bonus in his bank account, and he went to the bank to check his account at noon, and took out some of the funds to buy some items to go home to celebrate.

"Frances seems to have always wanted a dresser with a big mirror, Gris seems to want a nice little floral dress, and Ron, he wants a toy pistol."

Thinking of the gifts his wife and children hoped for, Jossen's face showed a smile, and then he strode into the Carrefour supermarket, first buying some ingredients and necessary supplies for the family, and then carrying the bags to the furniture store and the children's toys.

He could carry the ingredients, clothes, and toys home with them, but the dresser that was also furniture had to be transported to the house by the store's porter.

All the way into the community where he lives, those who are familiar with him will come over to say hello, "Yossen, you must have made a fortune by buying such a beautiful dresser," those who are not familiar with him will smile at him and cast envious eyes, and secretly swear in their hearts to buy such a beautiful dresser for their daughter-in-law.

In the midst of everyone's appreciation, Jossen knocked on his door and asked the porter to put the dresser into the living room, and then politely said thank you to the two porters, closed the door and looked at his wife Frances in a daze with a smile.

"What's the matter, my darling Frances, isn't it a surprise, look at what this is, and you will be able to sit at the dresser every morning when you comb your hair."

"Oh, Jossen, are you crazy! This dresser costs more than 200 yuan, which is basically your four months' salary, although the children are still young and do not need to spend money to enter the school, but we should save the money, didn't we say that it should be used to pay the down payment of the townhouse we fancied, and then the children will be able to have their own rooms without having to squeeze into one room? ”

Frances complained about her husband's extravagance, and then saw several large bags that Jossen had brought in, and opened them to see that in addition to all kinds of ingredients that he was usually reluctant to buy, there were also several new clothes and toys.

This time, without waiting for her to speak, Jossen gently put one hand on his wife's mouth: "Listen to me, dear Frances, we will soon be able to live in that beautiful little villa, and I have received a large bonus in the factory, enough for us to pay off the down payment, and even pay three more installments." ”

Joseph took a passbook out of his pocket, handed it to his wife, and smiled and motioned for her to open it.

"Ah, oh my God, is this true! Joseph, I'm not dreaming, this is really you getting a bonus, there are so many, we can really live in that townhouse with a garden? ”

Frances held the passbook in one hand and covered her mouth with the other, looked at her husband in surprise and asked, this is like a dream, according to her husband's estimate, it will take at least five years or more to save enough money to pay the down payment, and now it is inevitable to be a little unbelievable when she suddenly sees such a huge amount of money.

"Haha, Frances, I knew you would look like that, and now you still think I'm spending money on these things? We should celebrate, I believe that our days will get better and better, as long as we stay in Australia, all the good luck will come, this is really a land blessed by God. ”

"Yes, Australia is indeed a land blessed by God, and I have never seen a happier person than living here." Then Frances held the passbook in both hands, closed her eyes and prayed reverently.

"Thank the Lord for all that has been given to us, and it is all your arrangement."
