Bai Qin's matter was just a minor incident.
Guan Yuxi just smiled and let it go. She had a lot of things to do and didn't have time to care about her.
"Director Xi, I need to ask for leave this morning, but don't worry, I'm quick and I can finish it in the afternoon."
He Nan asked Guan Yuxi for leave, feeling a little embarrassed.
Because she was very skilled with scissors and worked efficiently, she was assigned to the cutting group.
However, that kind of work wasn't too easy for her, and she figured since she was just idling around anyway, she might as well help out with something else.
Seeing Guan Yuxi frown, she quickly added, "I don't mean to be lazy, I just feel like I'm just idling around anyway, so I might as well help Zhang Yuanli and the others go up the mountain to cut down trees and make pressure boards."
"Pressure plate?"
Guan Yuxi had heard someone mention it, but she didn't take it to heart.
He Nan explained, "Those clothes are prone to wrinkling after going through several processes, but they can be washed in the sun normally."
However, it gets a bit annoying on rainy days; we'd like to use some pressure plates to weigh it down.
Guan Yuxi patted her head; she had forgotten about it!
In the 21st century, garment factories are almost fully equipped with electrical appliances. Before sewing, there are sixteen machines, including fabric inspection machines, fabric rolling machines, fabric spreading machines, roll inspection machines, and fabric cutting machines. During sewing, there are nearly thirty machines, and after sewing, there are more than ten machines.
But now that she's built a factory, all the machines are just a foot-operated sewing machine.
Because the entire Shuanghe Commune still lacks electricity!
Therefore, she neglected the issue of wrinkle removal.
Unexpectedly, everyone thought of what came before.
"The pressure plate can solve the problem, but that's too troublesome. I have a simpler way."
Guan Yuxi smiled and said to her, "Tell them you don't need to make a clothes-pressing board."
Firstly, pressing boards are difficult to operate; if you're not careful, you'll end up with a mess, pressing down on the wrinkles and then making the previously wrinkle-free areas wrinkle again.
Secondly, it takes up a lot of space and requires a lot of manpower, so it's really not cost-effective.
"So what do you plan to do?"
He Nan was very curious.
Guan Yuxi smiled mysteriously, "I won't tell you yet, you'll find out later."
She had a row of small stoves and several large stoves set up in an empty room a little further away.
However, they all adopted the northern style of making kang (heated brick beds), with the pot inside the house and the firebox for burning firewood outside.
He Nan felt she understood what she meant and sighed, "You want to iron clothes directly with the bottom of the kettle? No way."
The bottom of the pot was so blackened with soot; it would be better to just rinse the clothes directly in water.
It's just that when it rains, there's nowhere to dry things.
Guan Yuxi smiled and shook her head.
Washing clothes is not just a matter of drying them; the problems of shrinkage and fabric deformation are also difficult to solve.
After all, they are now taking a more affordable approach, and the quality of the fabrics they import cannot be guaranteed to meet all requirements.
"You guys don't need to worry about this."
Besides the ironing issue, there were also many accessories and supplies that Guan Yuxi had to find herself.
Although Lin Tiandi brought some clothes, it was just something she brought along; she hadn't really researched what would be the best match for those styles of clothing.
The next morning.
Guan Yuxi got up early, planning to go to the city.
Leng Lie called out to her, "I'll go with you!"
"Are you able to leave?"
"They are quite familiar with each other, especially He Nan, who picked it up very quickly. She can guide them in cutting without any problems."
It was his presence, staring at them, that made them feel uneasy.
Seeing this, Guan Yuxi nodded with a smile.
With Leng Lie by her side, she felt more at ease.
"Shall we settle this other debt while we're at it?"
She took a hoe to the backyard and dug out all sorts of rusty bronze vessels.
Leng Lie skillfully wiped away the loose dirt with a dry cloth.
"so much?"
He was slightly surprised.
Throughout history, the principle has been that things are valued for their rarity.
Moreover, antiques are something else entirely!
If they were as plentiful as radishes and cabbages, and could be found everywhere, then they wouldn't be worth anything.
Guan Yuxi smiled and asked, "Brother Lie, how does the quality of this batch compare to the previous one?"
Leng Lie held the item in his hand and examined it over and over for a long time.
But they couldn't figure it out.
Guan Yuxi smiled slyly: "Most of these are crudely made, and their condition varies from new to old."
That way he'll think we're easy to fool and incredibly audacious.
"Isn't this a bit too risky?"
Leng Lie felt somewhat uneasy.
At first glance, Li Nan seemed kind and approachable, with an air of making money through harmony. The two had even shared a drink at the same table.
But it made him feel very uncomfortable.
There's a sense of danger that only those who live on the edge of a knife can feel.
Guan Yuxi packed everything into her bag, glancing at him sideways. "Wouldn't it be better to finish quickly?"
Leng Lie's heart skipped a beat, but he nodded calmly, "Yes, I also don't like old man Dai. It's good to finish the tasks he assigned as soon as possible."
"Really? You really think I don't know what you and Uncle Zhao are up to?"
Guan Yuxi covered his lips with her fair hand. "I know you guys have rules, but when you go out, unless you require absolute secrecy, you have to tell me, otherwise I'll worry so much I can't eat or sleep."
Other military spouses not only enjoy legal protection but also various benefits.
She transferred from the armed forces department to a military post and then became an undercover agent.
Not only did they have nothing to say, but they were also constantly on edge.
I'm afraid that one day he will never come back, and we won't even be able to find his remains!
Leng Lie's throat tightened slightly, and he gently kissed his hand. "When did you find out?"
