Chapter 406: A Small Matter on Electricity
Chapter 406: The Small Matter of Electricity "Thank you, Comrade Chen Jianye."
"With you speaking up, we finally don't have to do unnecessary work."
"It has to be Comrade Chen Jianye."
The leaders of several fixture production teams were beaming with joy.
When the workshop party started, Chen Jianye reported the situation to Mo Qingyou.
For example, he developed a daily patrol plan.
Spend most of the day every day inspecting the fixture stations in a certain work section.
Observe whether the fixture actually improves the productivity of the operator.
If there are any deficiencies, he points them out and the technical workers make the changes on the spot.
"Some workstations are indeed not suitable for replacement with fixtures. I suggest maintaining the status quo. The specific workstations will be confirmed on site by me and the person in charge of the fixtures in the section."
Chen Jianye said finally.
His report was recognized by Mo Qingyou.
"Jianye, the fixture production in our workshop has entered the final stage."
"After you have checked the use of fixtures in each section, I will consider inviting the factory leaders to come to our workshop to observe."
"You decide the time. I'll wait for your notification."
Mo Qingyou made a request.
"Don't worry, leader. I will definitely urge everyone to complete the final fixture work within ten days."
Chen Jianye said loudly.
"Okay, I know you always do things properly."
Mo Qingyou smiled.
After the meeting, Chen Jianye rode his bike home.
Without Jia Zhang, there was basically no commotion in the courtyard. Chen Jianye and Ran Qiuye were sitting at the door picking vegetables.
Several residents of the courtyard house gathered in Yi Zhonghai's house opposite. Chen Jianye saw it but didn't pay much attention.
He now devotes all his time and energy to work.
Life is about taking care of my daughter-in-law.
Now that You Fengxia and I have broken through the last step, there is an extra woman outside.
Not much to do.
As for what happened in the hospital, Chen Jianye really didn't care much.
Yi Zhonghai brought a few people from the courtyard to the door of Chen's house and said, "Jianye, are you picking vegetables?"
"Yes, Master Yi, what's the matter?"
Chen Jianye asked with a smile.
The way people in Beijing greet each other is very interesting.
When we meet on the road, we usually ask: "Have you eaten?"
Or you can see what others are doing and say, "XX, working on XX."
It's just making conversation.
But no one thought it was wrong.
"Didn't your family buy an electric fan? Several people in the courtyard think that the electricity consumption should be discussed together."
Yi Zhonghai spoke nicely.
"Why do you want to calculate it? Just calculate the power ratio and assign it to me."
Chen Jianye was puzzled.
Although most houses in the city have access to electricity at present, most of the electricity meters are shared.
The so-called public means that there is only one electricity meter in a compound.
The electricity consumption of all residents in the compound is recorded by one meter.
Residents who do not use electricity at home naturally do not have to pay electricity bills.
Electricity users share the electricity bill.
The electricity bill is not shared equally by everyone.
Instead, it is distributed evenly according to the wattage of electrical appliances in the home.
For example, the light bulb in Yi Zhonghai's home is 15 watts, while the light bulb in Chen Jianye's home is 25 watts.
If you use 10 kWh of electricity per month, you need to pay 10 yuan, so the payment ratio between Yi Zhonghai and Chen Jianye should be 3:5.
After conversion, Yi Zhonghai needs to pay 3.75 yuan and Chen Jianye needs to pay 6.25 yuan.
What should I do if other homes also have electric lights?
Share it according to the wattage of the lamp.
As for electric lights, just turn them on when it gets dark, it’s about the same time.
Turn off the lights when you go to bed, and everyone is about the same, so it is more reasonable to distribute the power equally according to the wattage.
Chen Jianye has always paid his electricity bill in this way.
"Light bulbs can be charged according to the power consumption of electrical appliances, but your electric fan cannot."
"You leave it on all night. That thing uses a lot of power."
"Everyone has electric lights at home, which are on for only one or two hours at night at most. Do you think it is reasonable to share the electricity bill with your electric fan?"
Yi Zhonghai said.
The residents standing behind Yi Zhonghai did not say anything, but since they were standing with Yi Zhonghai, they naturally had the same opinion as Yi Zhonghai.
Chen Jianye understood what these people were thinking.
In the past, everyone used electric lights, and they turned on the lights for one or two hours a day, which was pretty much the same.
It is more reasonable to spread the electricity bill according to the wattage of the lamp.
With only one electricity meter in the compound, there is no better solution than this.
But now it’s different, the Chen family bought an electric fan.
It was a hot day, and the electric fan started blowing after get off work and continued until Chen Jianye woke up the next day.
How much electricity does it consume?
Moreover, the electric fan is very powerful and can power three light bulbs.
So everyone feels that they have lost out.
"How about we compare the electricity consumption of the previous months and charge the excess electricity this month to ours."
Ran Qiuye also figured out the reason and whispered some suggestions to Chen Jianye.
She is not a person who likes to take advantage of others, and she doesn't want to be scolded behind her back.
"My wife is really smart. She found the key point right away."
Chen Jianye smiled slightly and turned to look at Yi Zhonghai: "Master Yi, what you said is indeed a problem."
"How about this, you give me the electricity consumption data of our hospital for the past three months, and we can take an average."
"Any amount of electricity consumption in our hospital that exceeds the average this month will be charged to me."
"Next month I will apply for a separate electricity meter to calculate my home's electricity consumption and pay the bill separately."
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Yi Zhonghai didn't expect Chen Jianye to be so straightforward, and he quickly agreed.
"Jianye, we are not stingy people. It's mainly because your electric fan really consumes a lot of electricity."
"Yes, I usually save on light bulbs at home. Every bit counts."
"Jianye, don't worry about it. We don't have any thoughts about you."
Several masters in the courtyards said that they were worried that Chen Jianye had a barrier towards them.
"Everyone is overthinking. Discussing the matter at hand is the fundamental condition for doing things."
"Even if you don't tell me, I still have to pay the electricity bill when it's time."
"I have an electric fan at home and enjoy the coolness. I can't ask you to share the cost. That's not a good thing."
Chen Jianye said frankly.
Everyone said a few more nice words and then went their separate ways.
“Why do I need to apply for a separate electricity meter?”
When the crowd dispersed, Ran Qiuye asked in confusion.
"If we don't apply for an electricity meter, our family will pay for the portion of electricity consumption that exceeds the average. These people in the compound must be using more electricity on purpose."
"Anyway, they don't have to pay for the excess, so if they can take advantage of it, then they can."
Chen Jianye explained with a smile.
Ran Qiuye thought about it in his mind: "That's exactly what happened."
The amount of electricity the Chen family paid for was the total electricity consumption of the compound, minus the average electricity consumption of the compound before the electric fans were installed.
The electricity bill that residents of the compound need to pay remains unchanged, and any excess electricity they use will be charged to the Chen family.
In this way, everyone will definitely use electricity without any worries.
Anyway, the Chen family will pay for any excess electricity used.
