"What's going on?"
"Brother." Su Qingyun moved closer and asked in a low voice, "Does your factory have those small welding tools?"
"Small welding tools?" Su Congjun was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "We're in a steel factory, so of course we have them. Small welding tools are generally used on some precision instruments in our factory, and only skilled craftsmen can use them."
"But why are you asking this?"
Su Qingyun slowly explained, "Isn't the finals of my competition coming up soon? We need welding tools for the finals. I thought about it and decided to ask you, big brother, to find a way to borrow some of these tools."
"This..." Su Congjun hesitated, "Yunyun, this is public property, and these tools are all in the production logistics department. Even if I want to help, I may not be able to."
He is just a newly hired worker, how can he help with this kind of thing?
"I know." Su Qingyun had never thought that Su Congjun could borrow things from the factory on his own. "I want to meet the person in charge of these things and borrow them myself."
"You go borrow it yourself?" Su Congjun was stunned again, "How do you go borrow it?"
"You'll know this later, but you have to let me see the person first."
"Okay." Su Congjun nodded, "It's okay to meet someone. I'll take you to find someone after dinner."
"Thank you, brother!" Su Qingyun smiled.
"Eat quickly."
After dinner, Su Congjun took Su Qingyun to the production logistics department. The logistics director's surname was An. He had just finished his meal and was resting in his office when he heard a knock on the door.
"Come in."
The door was pushed open, and Director An looked at the man and woman in front of him, puzzled, "Congjun, who is this?" Yes, he knew Su Congjun.
Wen Kaifu is one of the most famous master chefs in the steel plant, and the factory leaders have to give him some face. The logistics director is considered a middle-level leader in the factory, and he has a good relationship with Wen Kaifu, and as a result, he also has a good attitude towards Su Congjun.
"Director An, this is my sister, Su Qingyun. We are here to ask you for a favor." Su Congjun said with a smile on his face.
"What help?" Director An looked at Su Qingyun and didn't care much about her except that he thought she was a pretty girl.
"That's it." Su Congjun rubbed his hands and organized his words. "Director An, don't we have those manual welding tools in the logistics department? I just want to ask if I can borrow this."
"Don't worry, these are borrowed for formal purposes. They will be kept well and will not be lost or damaged." Su Congjun added.
Director An looked stunned. "No, joining the army, do you think that's something to be ashamed of?"
"No matter what tools they are, they belong to the factory and can only be used in production at the factory. Our steel mill's tools are all dangerous. What if something goes wrong if we lend them out? Doesn't the factory have to bear the responsibility if the tools belong to it?"
"Also, your sister isn't from our factory, so this is even more against the rules." Director An had an expression that refused to negotiate. "This is a factory, not a place where you can just drop by and borrow things."
His words made sense, and Su Congjun didn't know what to say for a moment. To be honest, he didn't have much hope that the factory could lend him anything.
"Brother, let me tell you." Su Qingyun spoke.
"Director An, it's like this." Su Qingyun said with a generous smile on his face.
She was just a young girl, so Director An didn't have any bad feelings towards her. He patiently let her speak, but he didn't agree with her in his heart.
"I'm a student at Luoshui Town Middle School. I'm currently participating in the National Middle School Student Innovation and Invention Competition and have already made it to the finals. I came here today because our final project requires this small welding tool, so I wanted to ask the factory to lend me some."
National Middle School Student Innovation and Invention Competition? Director An sat up straighter when he heard this, and finally became interested. After all, adding the word "national" to something is a bit intimidating.
"Innovative invention? What invention do you want to make?"
"Well, isn't spring plowing underway right now? We were thinking about whether we could make an agricultural tool to reduce the pressure on farmers during sowing, so we decided to invent a small seeder to improve sowing efficiency."
"planter?"
"Yes, this seed drill is small, easy to operate, and low-cost. I believe that once it is manufactured, it will benefit farmers and agricultural production to a certain extent."
"However, because we lack professional equipment and tools, our invention has not yet been realized. Now we just need the right tools. I hope the factory can help."
Director An thought for a moment and said, "Student Su, although I heard you say this seed drill is really good, this has nothing to do with our factory. The factory rules cannot be broken. We don't lend things out. Sorry, please go back."
Su Congjun looked at Su Qingyun with embarrassment.
Su Qingyun didn't move. She continued, "Director An, who said this seed drill has nothing to do with the factory? It's also good for the factory."
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
"This competition is highly valued by the higher-ups. The finals will be held in the capital, and many reporters will be reporting on it. If our seed drill is successful, I can mention the steel mill's help in our invention and research in my research report at the finals. If we win the competition, our Luoshui County Steel Mill's name will appear in newspapers in the capital, and even across the country."
