After the autumn harvest, He Yuhan began drawing design plans in the study that Han Yixian had arranged for her.
She has mature design drawings for rice threshing machines and wheat threshing machines; she can just make slight modifications and draw another one.
He Yuhan teaches students during the day, and she draws her plans on weekends and evenings. She completed the drawings for the rice threshing machine and the wheat threshing machine in just two weeks.
After seeing that his wife had finished drawing the blueprints, Han Yi took the blueprints and rode his bicycle to the county town to find Zhou Zhengye.
When Han Yi arrived at Zhou Zhengye's office, Zhou Zhengye was on the phone, throwing a tantrum.
He saw Han Yixian arrive, said a few more words, and then hung up the phone.
Han Yixian sat on the sofa and said, "Why are you so angry? Who upset you?"
Zhou Zhengye calmed himself down, got up to pour Han Yi a glass of water, and sat down on the sofa. He said, "The Wang family actually tried to use their connections to transfer me back to Kyoto without my consent. Luckily, I had someone keeping an eye on Wang Guixiang and the Wang family, so I found out about it beforehand. Otherwise, if the Wang family had actually made it happen, do you think I would have left once the transfer order came?"
Han Yixian asked, "Wang Guixiang went back?"
Zhou Zhengye snorted and said, "No wonder she suddenly said she wanted to go back the other day. Turns out the Wang family wants to transfer me back. Now that I'm going back, she definitely won't stay here anymore."
Han Yixian asked, "So how was it finally resolved?"
Zhou Zhengye said, "I have already made it clear to the Wang family that I will not go back to Kyoto. If they continue to pressure me, then Wang Guixiang and I will end things here."
Han Yixian laughed and said, "You've hit their nail on the head. But you really can't go back to Kyoto. The situation is getting more and more tense, and it looks like things are about to break out in Kyoto. We're trying to hide as fast as we can, how can we go back?"
Although Qianyuan County is somewhat remote, it's much more peaceful, with fewer troublemakers. Even if some people wanted to cause trouble, we have them under control and they wouldn't be able to really get away with it.
Zhou Zhengye said, "That's what I think too. And I really don't want to go back to Kyoto to face Wang Guixiang and the Wang family."
Han Yi patted Zhou Zhengye on the shoulder and said, "So you're just going to keep dragging this on? Won't your whole life be wasted by the Wang family?"
Zhou Zhengye sighed and said, "What can I do? My parents are getting old, and I don't want to cause them any trouble. If I divorce Wang Guixiang, I'll be making an enemy of the Wang family. A family like the Wangs, who have no bottom line, will definitely retaliate."
It's really not wise for the Zhou family to add an enemy like the Wang family now. I have no choice but to sacrifice myself. It's humiliating, but I have to endure it for now.
Let's not talk about that. What brings you to the county town? Is there something you need from me?
Han Yixian took out the drawings drawn by He Yuhan and unfolded them, saying: "During the autumn harvest, Yuhan saw that threshing rice in Beili Village was a waste of time, so she designed a rice threshing machine and a wheat threshing machine."
With these two machines, the efficiency of threshing rice and barley has increased significantly. It saves both labor and time. Could you tell me if your machinery factory can produce them?
Looking at the blueprints, Zhou Zhengye said happily, "Why can't we produce it? Although the textile machinery produced in our factory is selling very well now, the market will become saturated sooner or later. Moreover, many factories no longer have the energy to carry out technological upgrades and develop new equipment."
I was just thinking of talking to Yuhan sometime and asking her to design some suitable new products for us. These rice threshing machines and wheat threshing machines are good; they're agricultural machinery, and they'll always be useful.
Tomorrow I'll hand it over to the technical department and get the production line adjusted as soon as possible. This machinery factory used to produce agricultural machinery parts, so it has a foundation in agricultural machinery production. I think the products will be on the market soon.
Yuhan has provided guidance to this machinery factory several times, and the production efficiency has greatly improved. Yuhan has given excellent advice on the establishment and management of the production line, and the factory management is now quite mature.
The blueprints Yuhan drew this time are really valuable. Yuhan is also our factory's technical consultant, and she receives a salary and various benefits. I'll take you to the finance department in a bit; you can collect Yuhan's salary and other benefits for the next few months there."
Han Yi nodded and said, "Then I won't stand on ceremony. I just got the tickets and I'm going to buy some things. I have quite a few things to buy in the city this time. I also need to go see Qi Shen at noon to bring back the grain supplies for my dad and the others."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhengye said, "Then let's hurry up and not waste any time. After you get your salary and ration coupons, I'll go shopping with you. We'll go find Qi Shen together at noon, and I'll treat you to a meal at the state-run restaurant."
Han Yixian laughed and said, "Then we'll be eating up the big spenders."
The two went to the finance department after leaving the office. He Yuhan was the factory's technical consultant and a technician in the technical department, so her salary was quite high, and she also received some of the factory's benefits.
He Yuhan hadn't received her salary for several months, and this time she received a considerable amount, over three hundred yuan.
Three hundred yuan was a huge sum of money at that time, and with all the various ration coupons and certificates, it was quite a lot.
With Zhou Zhengye's guarantee, the finance department gave He Yuhan's salary and receipts to Han Yixian. Zhou Zhengye also got He Yuhan a set of drawing tools, pens, and paper from the logistics department, hoping that He Yuhan could design more good products in the future.
Han Yixian looked at the tickets he received and made some calculations in his mind. Uncle Gao's two younger sons would soon be looking for partners and getting married, and now was the time to prepare the betrothal gifts.
He gave the coupons he received to Uncle Gao so they could buy things. He and Yu Han at home basically didn't need coupons or money. Having such a wonderful wife truly meant he had nothing to worry about.
Han Yi first took out some tickets he needed and went to the department store with Zhou Zhengye. The two of them bought everything together.
Zhou Zhengye also bought candy and pastries for the Han family's children and several elders.
Zhou Zhengye himself is here, and he doesn't need many of the tickets. Now is the perfect time to use some up, otherwise they will expire.
After buying their things, Zhou Zhengye and Han Yixian returned together to the Han family's small courtyard in the county town.
The courtyard is still in pretty much the same place as when Gu Qishen left, thanks to his care.
Han Yixian said, "This courtyard is just sitting empty anyway, why don't you come and stay? You can keep Qi Shen company and help us look after the house."
Qi Shen often has to go to the countryside, and he can barely take care of himself. He simply doesn't have the energy to look after this house. If you stay here, you can look after each other.
Zhou Zhengye laughed and said, "We're both living alone here now, so it's actually quite nice to live next to each other. Okay, I'll move in as soon as possible. And don't worry, I'm the only one living in this courtyard. Even if Wang Guixiang comes, I won't let her stay."
Han Yi first put the things he bought in the courtyard, and then went to find Gu Qishen with Zhou Zhengye.
