Qin Huairu's life has been getting better and better over the years.
At least, it's enough to support a family and still have some money to spare.
Once this man became wealthy, Jia Zhangshi had fewer complaints. Besides, he wasn't idle after returning home, treating himself like a king; he was quite diligent. Life was much better than when she married into the family.
She naturally didn't dwell on this and didn't spend her days causing trouble for Qin Huairu.
After all, in her mind, Qin Huairu had already sworn an oath before her portrait, so it wouldn't be appropriate to press her any further.
Qin Huairu has become increasingly plump and radiant. Even when she wears makeup to make herself look less attractive, she still attracts a fair amount of attention on the street.
Someone who's about as pretty as her. Madam Jia thought that was enough.
As long as you establish a connection with Wang Shouren, you'll have a relative in the technical department. Then you won't have to worry about the sticks anymore.
"I'll sound him out first, then ask him." Qin Huairu's feelings were somewhat complicated.
What should we do then?
Wang Shouren would get married sooner or later, and even if she harbored a sliver of hope, she knew she could never marry him. But she couldn't keep him from getting married; it wasn't just a major life event, but also concerned the Wang family's legacy and his career. She couldn't be so selfish.
But……
Qin Huairu didn't get a good night's sleep.
The next day, early in the morning, everyone packed their things and prepared to go to the steel rolling mill.
Wang Shouren also got up and packed his things.
Seeing that Qin Huairu had already come out, he greeted her awkwardly, "Good morning, Sister Qin."
"Good morning, Wang Shouren. Oh, wait a minute." Qin Huairu called out to him.
"What's wrong?" Wang Shouren paused, then gave a perfectly timed look of confusion.
"Well, now that you have a stable job, shouldn't you start thinking about settling down? I have a cousin who's quite pretty. If you're interested, I'll bring her over to meet you."
Qin Huairu's words immediately attracted the attention of the men and women around her.
They were all getting ready for work, and they weren't hiding anything from each other. Suddenly, I knew everything.
Wang Shouren gave Qin Huairu a deep look, and said with a hint of awkwardness, "Sister Qin, this...this isn't appropriate, is it?"
"Is there anything inappropriate? How about this, I'll bring it over later and let you take a look." Qin Huairu felt a little flustered under Wang Shouren's gaze, and his beautiful eyes seemed to carry a hint of grievance when he looked at her. She quickly made the decision and rushed off to work.
"Hey, Qin Huairu, she's really quick."
"Hey, by the way, do you have any suitable ones at home?"
"If my family finds a suitable one, I'll bring it over the next day."
Do you think this can work?
"I think it's unlikely, after all, Qin Huairu's relatives are from the countryside, aren't they?"
"Tsk, you know, Qin Huairu is really shameless. These two have become estranged in the past two years, but she's still sticking to him like this."
"Hey, I'd put one on too."
"That's true."
In just one morning, the news that Wang Shouren was going on a blind date spread at an absurdly fast pace.
"Have you heard? Qin Huairu is going to introduce her relative to Wang Shouren."
"Have you heard? Wang Shouren asked Qin Huairu to introduce him to some beautiful women."
"Have you heard? Wang Shouren is going to Qin Family Village to select a concubine."
Have you heard?
As for how outrageous this "Have you heard?" could become, Wang Shouren had no idea.
He's currently holding an enamel mug, wearing overalls and white gloves, walking into the office of the first technical department.
The entire technical department occupies two floors of a building. The first floor houses various instruments, mainly used for experiments and simulated manufacturing, while the second floor serves as the office space.
There weren't many people in the group, only eight in total, including him. No wonder Engineer Zhao said that fewer and fewer people are willing to do technical work these days.
If we're talking about transferring to administrative positions, it's undoubtedly easier in Group 3. You can directly transfer to an administrative role within the factory; the best you can do is become a workshop director and gradually rise through the ranks.
The office in the group is quite large.
Most of the time, the three groups don't stay here; they're mostly on the factory production line.
Group Two spends most of their time studying machinery on the first floor, occasionally returning to look at books.
The largest group consists of people who research and modify the machinery. Or, if they need to change the production process someday, they need to conduct simulations and planning.
The group contained the most blueprints and documents, and a small dedicated room was set up to serve as a small archive. It was crammed with countless documents.
His main task today was to check the blueprints for the next stage of production with his mentor.
The verification process wasn't complicated. For Wang Shouren, a quick glance was enough to get a general idea, and then he refined the process, completing the verification in about two hours. Shen Yuanliang was quite satisfied with Wang Shouren's efficiency, and he patted Wang Shouren on the shoulder:
"That's about it for today's work. I need to get back to my research. I'm going to go to the workshop and find a furnace to test it out. You don't need to come with me. You can wander around the nearby workshops and find some research topics that interest you. I know you probably have a lot of ideas, but they need to be practical. Once you're ready, come back to me and we'll discuss whether it's feasible."
"Okay!" Wang Shouren happily agreed; this was exactly what he wanted.
After packing my things, I headed to the workshop.
Everyone in the workshop was busy with their own work, so seeing Wang Shouren wasn't surprising. In such a big factory, as long as the director wasn't in charge, you could run around however you wanted, and nobody would pay attention to you.
Wang Shouren glanced at it and scratched his chin.
He glanced at it again and scratched his chin.
"really……"
Just as he had thought.
He saw a welder assembling parts together and starting to weld. During the welding process, the dimensions of the parts seemed to be a bit off, so he took out tools from a toolbox next to him and fiddled with them for a while before continuing to weld. It was clear that this was a perfectly normal situation.
This is considered extremely absurd by later generations.
But in this era, it's a very normal thing.
standardization.
This word became a very common word for later generations.
However, as those who have watched "That Rabbit" probably know, standardization is something that only truly began to be a matter of cooperation between the US and China after the establishment of diplomatic relations in 1979. Wang Shouren had planned from the beginning that he could come here to work on standardization in advance.
