Chapter 333 The Mischievous Young Master 19 As dusk approached, Lu Ran stepped into his home earlier than usual.
He didn't go into the study, but instead clutched a slightly crumpled newspaper tightly in his hand, walking hurriedly with an expression on his face that Zi Xi had never seen before.
"Wife! Wife!"
As soon as he entered the room, he greeted her eagerly, his voice trembling slightly with excitement, without even taking off his coat.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Zi Xi was preparing dinner when she heard the sound and turned around. She saw his strange expression and was slightly taken aback.
Lu Ran did not answer, but instead spread the newspaper on the table.
"Times are changing, honey, look here!"
He pointed to an article marked in bold font above, his tone resolute.
Zi Xi looked in the direction he was pointing.
It was a report about a nationwide debate.
The core message revolves around the statement: "Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth."
Lu Ran's emotions affected her; she read the words carefully, and her heart began to beat faster involuntarily.
"Look here... This sentence means that in the future, making a living with real skills may no longer be a sin."
"Those rules and regulations, those labels that are easily escalated, may be about to be loosened!"
Lu Ran looked at those words repeatedly.
He strode into the inner room, took out the treasured little wooden box containing the improved blueprints that had once been scraps of paper.
"I want to try it."
"Although this improved part of the seeder is just theoretical, it cannot prove its value."
"But before, I could only draw the blueprints secretly, afraid that I would get arrested one day. Now I can finally carry it out openly!"
He looked up at Zi Xi, his eyes filled with confidence.
Zi Xi calmly picked up the newspaper and read it carefully again.
"Indeed, this is an opportunity."
After a while, she put down the newspaper and nodded firmly.
"However, we can no longer operate in a solo manner; that would be too narrow-minded."
But she immediately changed the subject.
“We can try a different approach. We can take the blueprints directly to the commune management committee and submit the improvement plan under the guise of supporting rural socialist construction and helping the commune's agricultural machinery group carry out technological innovation.”
"Apply for a small-scale pilot program, just one or two production teams in our commune. This way, it will be in full compliance with the current policy direction, legitimate, and we can let the actual results speak for themselves."
She walked to the table and gently tapped the blueprints with her finger.
Lu Ran's eyes lit up. He had only thought about doing it openly and honestly before, but he never thought that he could take advantage of the policy so cleverly.
It can also package individual technical activities as collective production activities.
Zixi's strategy was undoubtedly much safer.
"Moreover, Lu Ran, you are talented and shouldn't limit yourself to improving a small agricultural machinery part."
“I’ve seen the notes in your study; your understanding of mechanics goes far beyond that.”
"In the future, as the country develops its economy, it will definitely need more machines and more advanced technologies. This is just our first step."
As Zi Xi watched him continue his in-depth analysis, this was the first time she had so directly affirmed his technical talent.
His wife was practically his confidante.
Lu Ran reached out his large hand and firmly grasped Zi Xi's hand.
"Okay! We'll do it your way!"
"Honey, with you here, I feel so at ease."
Lu Ran looked at Zi Xi, his eyes filled with undisguised dependence and admiration.
The next day, just as dawn was breaking, Lu Ran got up early.
He changed into a Zhongshan suit that he didn't usually wear, carefully rolled up the blueprints, and wrapped them neatly in kraft paper.
"Don't rush, explain slowly and clearly. It doesn't matter whether it works out or not."
