The oil press was brought home a couple of days later, because the machinery factory, under Zhou Qingyun's leadership, had made a new oil press.
Zhou Qingyun had previously purchased the materials himself, and he and his son had only been able to make them using the factory's machines after get off work, which is why it was so slow.
With the full support of the factory leaders, the new oil press was completed very quickly.
Once the factory makes a new one, there's no need for Zhou Qingyun to keep his own; he can take it home.
As for the new unit that the factory made, it was naturally the sample that Qin Geming and his group of leaders used to negotiate business with other factories.
Zhou Qingyun and his son carried the oil press home, attracting a lot of attention along the way, as everyone was curious about what it was.
"Old Zhou, what good stuff did you buy? Did you buy a TV? Or a refrigerator?"
Besides televisions and refrigerators, they couldn't imagine any other machine that was this big.
As for the cabinet?
It doesn't seem like that's the case, does it?
"This is my dad and my older brother making an oil press. You know what an oil press is, right? It's a machine that can extract oil from things like peanuts."
When asked by others, Zhou Cunzong proudly told them about the oil press.
This was made by his dad! That was his dad!
That's how powerful Zhou Cunzong's father is.
"An oil press? Cunzong, you mean this oil press can press peanut oil?"
"It's not just peanut oil; soybeans, rapeseed, and camellia seeds can all be used to extract oil."
"Oh, and olives too, you can also press them for oil."
Zhou Cunzong looked smug, as if he had made the oil press himself. His proud and smug appearance made people grit their teeth.
"Zhou Cunzong, what are you so smug about? That was made by your father, not you." A young man, annoyed by Zhou Cunzong's smug look, couldn't help but retort.
“Yes, that was made by my dad. That’s my dad! Even if you wanted your dad to make it, you couldn’t.” Zhou Cunzong wasn’t angry at all and kept smiling as he retorted.
The man was rendered speechless by what he said.
Because the other party's father was also an employee of the machinery factory, and like Zhou Qingyun, he was a welder, but the other party was only a level six worker.
There is a difference between a level 6 welder and a level 7 welder.
The other party's father was a few years older than Zhou Qingyun, but he was only a sixth-grade worker and had always been jealous of Zhou Qingyun.
The man who got home earlier than Zhou Qingyun and the others after get off work heard Zhou Cunzong compare himself to Zhou Qingyun. Remembering that he could never compare to Zhou Qingyun, he couldn't help but hit his son.
If he hadn't brought it up, why would Zhou Cunzong have compared him to Zhou Qingyun?
That son of mine is so deserving of a beating.
Zhou Qingyun and his group didn't care about anything else and quickly moved all the parts of the oil press into their home.
"Zhou Cunzong, come over and help with the installation."
"Hey, hey, Lao Zhou, do you need Cunzong's help? We'll do it, we'll do it!"
Most of Zhou Qingyun's neighbors on Guangming Road were employees of the machinery factory, some were welders like him, but others had other jobs.
Anyway, they were all workers in a machine factory, so they were very familiar with and interested in these machines.
At this moment, they didn't need Zhou Cunzong to come and help; they stepped forward themselves and offered to help.
Although they don't want to be busy with work after get off work, they still really like all kinds of machinery, and they are really willing to get to touch a new oil press.
Zhou Qingyun did not refuse and directly instructed them on how to install the parts of the oil press.
With the help of the neighbors, the oil press was quickly installed, and it could be used as soon as it was plugged in.
Electricity had been available on Guangming Road in Yangcheng for a long time, and the Zhou family had also had electricity long ago, so they weren't worried about the oil press running out of power.
"Honey, hurry up and get the peanuts. Didn't you say your parents were short of oil? Bring them over and press them into oil so we can send it to them."
Seeing that the oil press was already installed, Zhou Cunzhi quickly called his wife to bring over the peanuts to press the oil.
When Zhou Cunzhi and Xu Huixue learned that they would have an oil press at home, they discussed asking the Xu family to send some peanuts over to help with the oil pressing.
Xu Huixue's maternal grandmother's family lived in the countryside. They didn't have much private land, but they would still grow some peanuts and beans in the corners of the mountains.
They would often send peanuts and beans to the Xu family, so it wasn't difficult for Xu Huixue's family to press oil.
"Okay, coming right away."
Xu Huixue hurriedly dragged out more than ten kilograms of peanuts from the room, along with several kilograms of soybeans and olives.
"You even brought soybeans and olives?" Zhou Cunzhi was surprised to see that there were other things besides peanuts. His wife was very well-prepared.
"Hehe, isn't this to press more oil? I'll send some to my grandma's house too, since they've given us a lot of things."
Some of the things that Xu Huixue's maternal grandparents sent to the Xu family were also sent to her, so she wanted to give back to her maternal grandparents.
"Cunzhi, can soybeans and olives be pressed for oil? Can our machine do that?"
"No problem, don't worry."
Zhou Cunzhi patted his chest and assured her, then plugged in the oil press and poured the shelled peanuts into the machine's hopper.
Press the start button and the oil press will begin to work.
"Hey, Cunzhi, has your oil press started pressing oil yet? Why is it so quiet?"
