Wang Zhixing's identity was still very useful. After registering with the guard, he went directly to the factory director's office.
The factory director’s surname is Tian. He is over 40 years old, has a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and is very energetic.
He politely stood up and shook hands with Wang Zhixing. After a few pleasantries, he got straight to the point, "Reporter Wang, what brings you here?"
Wang Zhixing waved his hand. "Comrade Qin wants to talk to you about something. Let's discuss the details."
Director Tian was puzzled. What could a little girl want from him?
However, he did not show any contempt and turned to look at Qin An Ning.
"Director Tian, take a look and see if our factory can produce this corn thresher." Qin An Ning handed over the drawing directly.
Director Tian didn't take it too seriously. Mechanical design is not that simple. If anyone could design it, then their factory wouldn't have to worry.
The county machinery factory is not very large. It only takes on odd jobs from the city machinery factory and makes some insignificant small things. It is not easy to have to please people.
Director Tian opened the drawing, glanced at it casually, then his eyes widened and he excitedly grabbed the drawing and began to look at it carefully.
Qin Anning sat steadily aside. She was not worried at all that Director Tian would look down on the design.
As long as he knows what he's doing, this will work.
After reviewing the blueprint, Director Tian looked at Qin Anning more affectionately than his own daughter. "Xiao Qin, can you sell this blueprint to our factory?"
The hand-cranked corn thresher was not invented by her. Although no one knew about it, Qin An Ning did not intend to make money from it.
Qin Anning shook his head, "Director Tian, we can't fully popularize mechanization now. Once the hand-cranked corn thresher is manufactured, it can greatly improve productivity and can be considered a contribution to the country.
I can give you the blueprints for free, the only requirement is that after they are produced, our team will be given priority in purchasing them."
When Qin An Ning shook her head at first, Director Tian thought she was going to ask for an exorbitant price, but he didn't expect that she was of such noble character and didn't want any money.
He felt ashamed of his thoughts just now, and when he spoke, his tone was much more sincere.
"Xiao Qin, our factory will also be profitable after this is made. We can't take your things for free."
Qin Anning thought for a moment and said, "Whatever money the machinery factory can give me, please convert it into rice, flour and other supplies and help me send them to the welfare home."
Not wanting to continue arguing about this matter, Qin An Ning directly changed the subject.
"Director Tian, I haven't studied mechanical design, so the drawings may not be very accurate. I need to ask an experienced comrade to check them."
"That's no problem at all. I'll call someone over right now."
After some discussion, the dimensions of each part were quickly determined.
Director Tian found the most skilled craftsman in the forging workshop to make the parts.
Qin Anning also wanted to witness the birth of the first hand-cranked corn thresher with his own eyes.
She stood not far away and watched as the red-hot iron blocks gradually took the shape of parts under the master's tools.
It didn't take long before the parts for the first thresher were ready.
After assembling it, we tried it out with the corn cobs that Director Tian had asked people to buy in advance, and the threshing effect was excellent.
"yeah!"
Everyone cheered in unison.
Wang Zhixing even took photos specially.
Director Tian's eyes were red with excitement. He rubbed his face with his hands and said, "Xiao Qin, on behalf of the machinery factory, I want to thank you."
Now is the time to thresh corn. They are working overtime. After this wave of sales, the factory's efficiency will be greatly improved.
"Director Tian, you're welcome. I've been paid."
Qin An Ning blinked her eyes, and her playful look made Director Tian laugh.
"That's not even a reward. You were so kind-hearted and donated everything. You didn't take anything for yourself. This spirit is really worth learning from!"
Qin Anning was not very good at saying these polite words, so he said a few polite words and turned back to the machine.
She pointed to the location of the wheel and said, "Actually, if conditions permit, we can make a groove here, add a belt, and drive it with a motor. This will make the thresher more efficient."
Director Tian accepted it humbly, took out his work manual and wrote it down carefully.
"Xiao Qin, if you have any good designs in the future, be sure to come to Uncle Tian."
Qin An Ning almost choked on his own saliva. In just a short while, Director Tian became Uncle Tian. He was also a man who took advantage of the situation to strike.
"Director Tian, you're joking. I haven't studied mechanical design, so it was just luck that I was able to draw this hand-cranked corn thresher."
Director Tian doesn't think so. He believes that if he can design one model, he can design another.
He waved his hands, pretending to be unhappy, "Why call me Director Tian? Call me Uncle Tian. From now on, you are my niece."
Qin An Ning inexplicably had an uncle appear at her doorstep.
It’s not a big deal to have a lot of connections. Just call on others when they ask you to. It won’t cost you anything.
"Then Uncle Tian, I won't delay your production. Remember to give our team priority in purchasing."
Director Tian waved his hand and said, "Buy whatever you want, I'll give you five."
The materials used for this thresher are simple and the cost is low, so he paid for it out of his own pocket.
Regardless of whether Qin An Ning can design other products in the future, such a smart and loving girl is worthy of his friendship.
"How can this be so embarrassing!"
Director Tian looked angry and pretended to be displeased, "If you refuse, it will be too rude."
Qin An Ning stopped when she saw that things were going well, and smiled, "Then I would like to thank Uncle Tian."
When I came out of the machinery factory, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
Wang Zhixing had to go back to write a manuscript, so he said goodbye to Qin Anning and left.
Qin An Ning went to the guesthouse to book a room, locked the door and entered the space.
Lu Cheng hasn't come in yet. I wonder if he hasn't finished his work yet.
When she had nothing to do, she went to the study to read.
She had never had time to look through the books in it before, but she took a quick look last night and found many books on traditional Chinese medicine.
There is also a small mahogany carved box, I wonder what treasure is inside.
Qin An Ning opened the mahogany box, and in the middle of the yellow silk cloth was placed an ancient book "Baicao Fang".
The words inside were all in official script. Qin An Ning didn't recognize all of them, but he could roughly tell that the first half was a prescription for medicine, and the second half was a maintenance prescription for beauty and skin care.
These books and prescriptions are priceless treasures to her.
She sat in a chair and read with great interest.
From time to time, he would write something down with a pen.
When Lu Cheng came in, he saw Qin An Ning concentrating on reading.
There was still time, so he was not in a hurry. He just sat there with his legs crossed, staring at Qin An Ning.
He didn't get up and walk over until Qin An Ning noticed him.
Qin An Ning casually picked up a small card as a bookmark, put the book away, and then asked, "When did you come in? Why didn't you call me?"
Lu Cheng smiled and hugged Qin An Ning from behind, "Since we have time, it's not bad to look at a beauty."
