Chapter 100 Qin Xiao: Can I keep these as pocket money?



Now Ji Xia's reputation in several nearby production teams is at its peak. Luo Heng and his four companions, as well as the tractor, were all brought back by Ji Xia. After the people from the G Committee came twice and were driven away by the local people, they dared not come again.

After all, in this era, even if someone is beaten to death in the village, there may not be a way to punish them. The countryside is still a patriarchal society with a large population and strong power, so those people from the G Committee dare not come again.

People from the Bing County Tractor Factory also came forward and said that the tractor was newly developed and produced by them. The army helped them test drive it, and it was Ji Xia who acted as a matchmaker and loaned it to the Seventh Production Team.

Now, Luo Heng and his three companions drive tractors every day to dig lakes and work on water conservancy projects, doing ten jobs a day. This was something Luo Heng had never dared to imagine before.

With just one sentence, Ji Xia labeled Tian Guiying and her two children as enemy spies, and no one dared to say that they were not.

The production team was also very annoyed that these three people dared to come to their door, so they quickly sent a few strong laborers to send them to the police station. They didn't know what they said, but the police station believed it. After an investigation, they actually found some clues and detained the three people.

The main reason was that these three people happened to be in a good time. Just now, a major enemy spy incident occurred in Bing County, which was the "sweeping robot" case last night. The whole city is now in a panic. It just so happened that Tian Guiying had contacts with Chu Hongguang's family. She also became sworn sisters with Chu Hongguang's wife. So she happened to be in the right place.

Ji Xia didn't know the relationship between the two. She just said it casually. She really hoped that the police station would investigate Xie Baitang's bribery. Who knew that he would actually be linked to an enemy spy.

When it comes to the issue of enemy spies, they would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go. It is unlikely that the three will be able to leave the prison in a short period of time.

This was exactly what Ji Xia wanted. He let them stay in there for a while longer so that they wouldn't come out and make trouble every day, which was quite an eyesore.

Qin Xiao waited until the people at the door had left before coming over. The two hadn't seen each other for half the night. When they met again, their eyes met lightly, and their cheeks and ears couldn't help but turn red.

Ji Jianguo was afraid that Ji Xia would leave, so he quickly called Ji Xia and talked about welding.

Ji Xia saw the product Ji Jianguo had brought out: two sections of circular pipe that needed to be welded together to prevent leakage. After a moment's thought, she said, "First, we need to change the material. Currently, this material has very poor corrosion resistance. If it's welded using existing methods and exposed to a humid environment for a long time, it will quickly rust."

When Ji Jianguo heard that his daughter had a good plan, he quickly took out a pen and paper to record it.

Ji Xia wrote a bunch of parameters on it, all of which were the properties of the material. "Dad, go find the people at the steel mill and have them formulate a formula based on the properties of this material. Try to refine some steel and pour it into this metal cylinder. Then find someone to make a solder paste, like an ointment. Squeeze it out and apply it around the area to be welded. Then pass it through high temperature. As long as the amount of solder paste is sufficient and the temperature is maintained, there will basically be no leakage. The process is very stable, and we can produce a lot at a time."

Ji Xia told Ji Jianguo about a very common welding process. Ji Jianguo got a bunch of data, quickly said hello to Xie Sufen, and left the house.

Qin Xiao approached Ji Xia and asked in a low voice, "Can the positioning and tracking method we used yesterday be widely used in the military?"

Ji Xia thought to herself that this man had good taste, but she shook her head and said, "No."

"Why?" Qin Xiao asked purely out of humility. He certainly knew that it was a very extraordinary method. From what Ji Xia and Ji Jianguo had just said, he knew that even a small improvement in welding technology would require a lot of preparation, not to mention that very advanced positioning technology.

"If you give me some money, I will pass on that technology to you." Ji Xia teased him deliberately.

Qin Xiao was not angry, and was even prepared. He took out two passbooks from his pocket and handed them to her, as well as a handful of change. He took out about a dozen yuan and gave the rest to Ji Xia.

"This is all the money we have at home." Qin Xiao opened his palm. There were a dozen yuan in it, one in a large unity banknote, and the rest were one, two, one, and two cents bills, all torn and worn. "Can I keep these for pocket money?"

Ji Xia stared at him with wide eyes, "What do you need so much pocket money for? Buy things for a little girl?"

Qin Xiao's face flushed red. "Don't talk nonsense. I don't even know the girl."

After saying that, he also put the big unity note into Ji Xia's hand and said, "I'll keep the remaining money for future use."

Ji Xia took a look and saw that it was only three dollars and a few cents.

She glanced at the passbook in her hand. One of the passbooks should contain the remaining salary of his many years, and the other one contained the money he had saved sporadically. Each time he saved a lot of money, two or three hundred, and occasionally a large sum of five hundred. The total amount saved was also a considerable amount.

"This is my salary card. This is the money my family sends me every time. I don't have much to spend, so I saved it all. All of this is for you." Qin Xiao explained.

There was also a handful of change, neatly stacked. Ji Xia estimated that there were about two or three hundred yuan.

Ji Xia took half and returned the remaining change to him, "I'll keep the passbook for you. You can keep this half for your spending, and I'll use the rest for living expenses."

Qin Xiao didn't take it, but took the big unity note in his hand and stuffed the rest to Ji Xia, "I don't need so much."

Ji Xia was not polite and put them all away. The main thing was that it was not a bad thing for a man to have a lot of money. She was also helping Qin Xiao so that he would make fewer mistakes.

"However, even if you gave me all your wealth, this technology still cannot be implemented now."

"I know." Qin Xiao's cheeks flushed slightly as he explained, "We're married, and there has to be someone in charge of the family. My mother manages the finances."

This is really a good tradition. Ji Xia had a better impression of her father-in-law whom she had never met.

"This technology is called satellite positioning and navigation technology. The Transit satellite positioning system currently developed by the US military uses a six-satellite star network system. It was developed in 1958 and put into use in 1964. It currently has many flaws. It orbits the Earth at most 13 times a day, cannot provide altitude information, and its positioning accuracy is also very inaccurate."

Ji Xia said it with disgust, while Qin Xiao's heart was in turmoil. Let alone space, although China's technology has launched so many things, in fact, it is still blank in the industrial field.

The national level has arranged many people to go out and explore the technologies that Ji Xia mentioned, but they are top secrets of the United States, and they can only have a general understanding of them. They actually don’t know the details that Ji Xia mentioned.

"A complete star network system requires at least 24 satellites, ensuring that any point on Earth can simultaneously observe four satellites. The U.S. Navy, Air Force, Army, Transportation, and Defense departments, as well as laboratories in Australia and Europe, are all developing this precise positioning system. In the future, the U.S. will also use this positioning system to carry out precise strikes against hostile forces."

Not long after the Iraq War, the United States also successfully carried out a decapitation operation against Iraq using this technology.
