"It's ringing...it's ringing..."
Sister-in-law Ji spoke excitedly.
Ji Sanmei, adhering to the mentality that one should not take advantage of others and that one should reap what one sows, said: "Mom, I helped out, so you have to give me an extra half bowl of porridge tonight."
Aunt Ji slapped her on the back: "All you ever think about is food..."
It was quite lively outside, with occasional chatter coming from all directions. Fan Xiaofan couldn't help but smile, cupping her face in her hands. People are so easily satisfied.
However, this kind of simple happiness is really contagious.
He lowered his head and began drawing improved diagrams of the parts.
This lively scene lasted for more than half a month. Normally, every household would wash their large items at least once every two weeks, but now, people wanted to wash them every day.
Sister-in-law Ji became even more determined to cherish Fan Xiaofan.
This girl is amazing! First, she got her hands on something that could turn water into ice, as cold as ice in winter. Now she's got this magical machine that can clean things just by having them ingested.
Factory Director Fang also came over to take a look out of curiosity...
He swore he had a feeling that Comrade Xiao Fan was about to unleash another big move...
He had heard from President Xu that the refrigerators from the refrigeration plant were selling very well overseas and were now a major part of the export economy, which made R and S countries furious.
Country R was trying to play some tricks, otherwise Zuo Yun wouldn't have appeared. Meanwhile, Country S, as China's creditor, was using the pretense of peaceful debt collection to coerce and entice them to find out who developed the refrigerator.
Unfortunately, ever since Wu Li's incident, Director Xin thoroughly investigated and dealt with the refrigeration plant, and now it seems as if Fan Xiaofan has never appeared, leaving everyone puzzled.
Zuo Yun's mission failed, and she was stripped of her rights for life and sentenced to death. As for the intelligence she sent out, it was a joke to the Japanese. How could a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl be the terrifying enemy they imagined?
It was this kind of misconception that led R country to almost regret it deeply when they finally had the opportunity to meet this influential figure at an exchange conference.
Factory Director Fang strolled over to find Fan Xiaofan, scratching his head as he said, "This refrigerator is somewhat useful; it can keep food fresh and keep people cool. But what's the use of this big thing? All those old and young women are so fascinated by it. It's just for washing clothes; they can do it easily. Is this thing really worth having?"
He expressed deep skepticism.
Fan Xiaofan didn't preach any grand principles to him, but simply said, "Farmers can dig the soil with their hands, so why did they invent hoes?"
Factory Director Fang was deeply immersed in serious reflection on life, society, and himself.
He seemed to understand, yet also seemed not to.
Oh well, since Xiao Fan is going to make this anyway, it must be useful. He's a die-hard fan now.
As for the factory director's wife, she rolled her eyes at her husband: "You're just talking without understanding the situation. Try doing all the housework from now on. I come home from work every day and still have to wash clothes and cook. I wish I had ten hands. Now I just have to throw the dirty clothes in and I can do other things. Do you think that makes any sense?"
Fan Xiaofan was amused by Aunt Fang: "Auntie, you're right. Its purpose is to exchange time and free people's hands from unnecessary labor."
Aunt Fang glanced at Factory Director Fang smugly. "Factory Director, huh? He's not even as far-sighted or as educated as I've imagined..."
Factory Director Fang: "..."
