"Director! Please don't say that. I don't want any credit. I'll be satisfied as long as the higher-ups pay attention to you and improve your living conditions."
They are suffering so much. What do they eat every day?
The living conditions were also difficult.
"Engineer Zheng! We're fine. The country is facing difficulties right now. We believe that once the country becomes stronger, our conditions will naturally improve."
Hearing this, I felt a pang of sadness for no reason.
Here, they consider eating a chicken a special occasion, like a holiday.
What about those corrupt officials? Their money just sits at home getting moldy, and their fine wines and cigarettes are just thrown away in warehouses without a second thought.
When they arrested him, he was pouring Moutai down the toilet; more than a dozen cases went down the drain.
Not to mention some who gamble away fortunes, keep mistresses, and have lovers.
Their monthly expenses can even exceed the research budget of a research institute for a year.
They live a life of extravagance and debauchery, while those who truly contribute to the country are living such lives.
"Engineer Zheng! Someone's looking for you!" Xiao Song called out as he ran over.
Who's looking for me?
"It's a high-ranking official; you should go and take a look!"
I ran out to take a look and found it was actually Old Sun and Jiang Lan.
"Old Sun! What brings you here?"
"You ran off after doing something good, and I didn't even have a chance to have a drink with you. There was no other way, so Colonel Jiang and I had to come here to find you."

"Old Sun! We have wine here, but no good food."
"It's okay! I brought it."
"ah?"
Not only did they bring it, but they brought a lot of it, enough for five train cars full of supplies.
When Grandpa Sun arrived, they directly arranged for a train to be dispatched.
Is this enough?
"Haha! That's enough. But since Elder Sun is here, let's all watch the test of our new weapon, shall we?"
"Oh? Looks like I've come to the right place."
I had someone call the director over. The director didn't know it was Old Sun. When he arrived and saw it was Old Sun, he was incredibly excited.
"Commander! I didn't expect you to come. I... I wasn't prepared at all. Please tell me what you're doing."
"Haha... No need to prepare. Engineer Zheng asked me to watch you test the weapon, so I'll take a look. After that, we'll drink a celebratory drink with Engineer Zheng."
"Huh?" The director became even more nervous upon hearing this. He must have thought it was a celebration drink for the successful development of the weapon.
The director pulled me aside: "What if things go wrong?"
"Are you that insecure?"
"No! We just assembled it. What if something goes wrong in front of the leaders?"
"Don't worry, I was watching the whole morning, everything should be fine."
"Should?" The director's face was more bitter than a bitter gourd.
"Hurry up!"
"Then... then please come in, esteemed leaders."
