In the afternoon, not long after starting work, in the Mechanical Department, in Minister Li's office.
Secretary Wang hurriedly walked in, holding a report he had just received.
"Boss, the research institute just sent over a report, please take a look."
"Mmm~!"
Minister Li gave a curt reply, took the report, and casually asked, "Has the person who delivered the report left?"
"We haven't left; we're still waiting for your reply!"
Upon hearing Secretary Wang's reply, Minister Li did not ask any further questions, but instead focused on reading the report in his hand.
A few minutes later, Minister Li put down the report in his hand and said something in a calm tone.
"Connect me to Sun Zhengguo, I want to speak to him directly."
Normally, this report could be approved simply by reading it, but Sun Zhengguo made it more difficult this time, so Minister Li had to personally confirm it.
When Secretary Wang saw that the leader wanted to make a call, he picked up the phone without saying a word, connected to the switchboard, and then transferred the call to Sun Zhengguo.
"Boss, the call is connected."
"Yes!" Minister Li said as he picked up the phone.
"Comrade Zhengguo! I have seen the report you submitted. Turbocharging, multi-valve... I don't understand. I just want to ask, will these technologies really have a big impact on future development?"
"Minister Li, let me put it this way! Not all engines need this technology, but high-performance engines will definitely use technologies such as turbocharging, and also..."
After hearing Sun Zhengguo's explanation, Minister Li was more relieved, since this guy had never made a mistake.
"Comrade Zhengguo! Your report has been approved by the ministry. If you need any assistance, just let us know, and the ministry will do everything in its power to help you."
"Thank you, Minister Li."
After finishing the phone call, Minister Li signed the report and handed it to Secretary Wang, asking him to file it and then send it back.
On the other side.
Yi Zhonghai, who works at a steel rolling mill, took advantage of his spare time to make a small gadget by hand, which he plans to use tonight.
Qin Huairu, who was dawdling at work, saw this and asked curiously:
"Hey! Master, what are you going to do with this thing?"
"Oh! Just doing this for fun since you have nothing else to do! You've already finished your work."
Yi Zhonghai's answer was very perfunctory. Was he supposed to tell her that these were tools for thieves at night?
Qin Huairu didn't believe any of this, but she didn't want to ask either. She was too busy figuring out her own work to care about anything else!
"Master, there are too many parts. Could you please help me out? Please!"
As she spoke, Qin Huairu blinked her large, beautiful eyes, revealing a charming and endearing appearance that made it impossible for anyone to refuse her.
"This...? Sigh~!" Yi Zhonghai hesitated for a moment, then sighed deeply, and finally had no choice but to take on all the blame.
In order to help Qin Huairu with her work, he has now offended all his former apprentices, so he has to do it all himself.
After handing the work over to Yi Zhonghai, Qin Huairu was not idle either.
As a qualified female sea queen, there are still so many people in the workshop waiting to be harvested!
"Guo Da Piezi has been saving money for so long, he should have some stock up, right?"
"Yes! Let's find him first, and then find Li Huozui..."
Qin Huairu secretly made a decision in her mind, and then walked straight towards Guo Da Piezi.
As for learning technical skills from Yi Zhonghai? That's impossible.
Never in this lifetime!
In the evening, Yi Zhonghai, exhausted from a long day, walked home with his beloved student and concubine.
At the same time, he secretly brought back the little gadget he had made that afternoon, intending to scout the area tonight.
As they approached their doorstep, to avoid unnecessary trouble, Yi Zhonghai hypocritically said...
"Huai Ru, we're almost at the door. Let's split up so your master's wife won't get suspicious."
"Hmph!"
Qin Huairu was somewhat indignant, so she quickened her pace and walked home alone, only to see two big buttocks swaying back and forth in front of her...
Sure enough, Yi Zhonghai's guess was right. Seeing that he often got up early and overslept, Aunt Yi had become suspicious and was now waiting at the door!
"Old Yi's off work?" Yan Bugui, who was standing at the door, greeted him with a big smile, as if he had seen his father.
"Oh, I'm off work now, busy?"
"What are you busy with? Just wandering around the door."
"..."
"..."
The two exchanged a few formulaic words before Yi Zhonghai pretended to glance at his wife beside him.
"Xiulian, you're waiting for me! Let's go home."
Seeing that her husband behaved reasonably well after get off work, at least knowing to keep his distance from the vixen, and that there was nothing wrong with him, Aunt Yi remained silent and followed him into the yard.
When the two returned home, their two children had just finished their homework. When they saw Yi Zhonghai come back, the two children surrounded him.
The eldest daughter, Yi Xiaofang, being older and more capable, stepped forward, grabbed Yi Zhonghai, and pressed him down onto the stool.
"Dad, you're back. Sit down, let me give you a back massage."
"No, no, I want to massage Dad's back too." The youngest son, Yi Xiaobao, imitated his sister and started gently massaging Dad's back.
Seeing how sensible his children were, Yi Zhonghai was so happy that he simply closed his eyes and let his children show off their talents.
Seeing this harmonious scene, Aunt Yi was also very happy, but it was already lunchtime, so she quickly urged them to hurry up.
"I have to say, you guys are really something. Go wash your hands and get ready to eat. I still need to deliver food to the old lady."
Yi Zhonghai, who was enjoying his family time with his eyes half-closed, suddenly opened his eyes upon hearing this, then stood up and said.
"Xiulian, you take the children to eat first, I'll go deliver the food! Otherwise, the old lady will keep nagging me that I don't come to her place anymore, and we're getting distant."
After hearing this, Aunt Yi thought about it carefully and realized that the old lady had indeed said those things before. So she stopped arguing and asked Yi Zhonghai to go to the kitchen to get the food.
"Alright, you and your children eat first, I'll be right back."
As Yi Zhonghai spoke, he walked towards the kitchen.
When he arrived in the kitchen, he saw a bowl of corn porridge and a bowl of tofu stew with cabbage on the stove, with two steamed buns on top.
So he took two bowls and went to the backyard.
The deaf old lady's house in the backyard.
The deaf old lady, who was waiting to offer sacrifices, was slightly surprised to see Yi Zhonghai come to deliver food.
So she asked, "Zhonghai, what brings you here today? I don't think it's rent collection time yet, is it?"
When Yi Zhonghai heard the old lady's words were laced with barbs, he wasn't annoyed; instead, he gave a simple, honest smile.
"Grandma, don't overthink it. It's been a long time since we last met. I just happened to be passing by and wanted to see you. I didn't mean anything by it."
As he spoke, Yi Zhonghai placed two bowls on the table and then called out.
"Eat up, ma'am. If you need more, just let me know and I'll go back inside and get you some more."
"That's enough, that's enough. I'm so old, how much can I eat? It's just that as people get older, they always crave meat. You tell me... sigh!"
The deaf old lady sighed, sat down, and began to eat.
He ignored her sarcasm and instead took advantage of her mealtime to look around the room.
So what was his purpose in doing this?
It's actually quite simple; he just wanted to keep track of the treasures the deaf old lady had hidden away.
If I could get these treasures, even just half of them, then I could be a king, and make Qin Huairu kneel down and sing "Conquer".
Hehehe!
The thought of that scene made Yi Zhonghai smirk wickedly.
