night.
Zhang Hanyuan stood outside waiting for Sheng Qian.
Seeing their car arrive, I walked a few steps forward, and as soon as the car door opened, he started grumbling, "Why do you always choose this time to come back?"
Despite complaining, he was quick to open the car door without hesitation.
Every time Sheng Qian came back and saw Zhang Hanyuan, she had the illusion that he had changed his appearance.
Look at that handsome man in his suit and tie, exuding the charm of a mature man, standing here to greet people, you'd think he was a groom.
"You put on makeup especially to wait for me?"
Zhang Hanyuan's lips twitched. "You wish! I just came back from a business meeting."
"Was it smooth?" Sheng Qian asked casually as she closed the car door.
"It's alright," Zhang Hanyuan nodded slightly to Zhang Weiguo and the others who came down behind him, and then walked ahead with Sheng Qian.
Sheng Qian seemed to remember something and turned to Zhang Weiguo and the others, saying, "It's rare for you to come back. If you can go home now, go now. If you live further away, drive back tomorrow. I'll be staying here for a few more days."
Zhang Weiguo and the others hesitated upon hearing this.
“I’m safe here. If someone were to come in, they’d be seen through completely. Go back and check on your homes. I want to talk to Dalin for a bit.”
Hearing the name "Dalin," Zhang Hanyuan felt a little annoyed.
Sheng Qian watched them leave before entering the shed in front with Zhang Hanyuan.
"I haven't been back for a while, are there any major problems with the machine?"
"No, I learned how to repair it myself, and the others aren't stupid either," he said, having learned everything he could.
It's like having another skill.
Even women are willing to learn it, let alone men.
Upon hearing this, Sheng Qian nodded and then took out a brand new box from her pocket.
"This is?"
“This is a gift for you,” Sheng Qian said, placing it in his hand.
"Gift?"
Zhang Hanyuan found it strange.
When he opened it and saw what was inside, he was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, "Is this the phone that's been all the rage?"
"Yes, the card has already been provided to you."
Now you don't need an ID card to register your identity; you can just get any card and use it.
Zhang Hanyuan fiddled with his new phone, feeling a little happy.
We always saw it on TV, and we could only admire it from afar. We never thought we could actually own such a phone.
A cordless phone!
"The signal here is weak, which may affect usage."
“There’s a telephone line installed here, so it shouldn’t be too weak,” Zhang Hanyuan fiddled with it for a moment, then stopped. “By the way, what about Zhao Niangen’s?”
“I asked Madam Ju to help send them over, a dozen or so, so that he could do her a favor.”
"You're quite good at this."
"Don't you know who my boss is?" Sheng Qian smiled.
Zhang Hanyuan raised an eyebrow. "You're really arrogant."
"This is confidence."
Zhang Hanyuan stared at her: "I've noticed that you've changed since you came back this time."
"Yeah?"
Isn't it still her?
"You want money again?" Zhang Hanyuan's scalp tingled as he stared at her.
"I'll let you know in advance if I need the money."
Zhang Hanyuan, who felt like he was an ATM: "..."
You really shouldn't ask that kind of question.
“I’ve read a lot of news. Zhao Niangen’s research lab has come up with a lot of good things. I heard Zhao Niangen say that he independently designed a large machine, which has been approved for trial use. If it works, it can be put into mass production and benefit the local people,” Zhang Hanyuan said, his heart filled with complicated feelings.
Who would have thought that their fates would take such a turn?
Sheng Qian nodded: "He's more capable than we imagined."
“Shagen isn’t stupid at all, he’s just a little slow to react,” Zhang Hanyuan said, taking out a cigarette from his pocket and lighting it. “The branch mine I told you about before has already started operating. Once the permits are approved, we can start working on a large scale, and then you’ll have another place to make money.”
Sheng Qian: "..."
How was she supposed to respond to that?
"I wonder how that kid Shagen is doing now. I feel like I can't catch up with him anymore."
Why did you chase after him?
“Let’s set a goal,” Zhang Hanyuan said. “I made an agreement with him before, to see who takes the first step.”
“You’re both pretty good. Everyone has their own area of expertise. You’re better than him at business. He’s the type to just bury himself in research. Staying there is the best place for him,” Sheng Qian patted him on the shoulder like a good friend, only to be shaken off by him in a disdainful manner.
"I know."
That's why he said he wouldn't make it.
Zhao Niangen has already achieved his own success, but what about him?
It seems like we've stopped in the same place.
“Once we open a few more mines, we’ll form a group, and you’ll be the president.”
Zhang Hanyuan glanced at her. "Want to keep working for you?"
"Don't say that."
"Actually, it's pretty good," which is the life he wants and his goal.
Sheng Qian looked at him speechlessly.
"Have you eaten?" Zhang Hanyuan asked.
"No."
"Oh, then you can do it yourself. I've been running around all day, so I won't take care of your food and drink," Zhang Hanyuan said, a cigarette dangling from his lips, holding his phone. "Thanks for the gift!"
Watching Zhang Hanyuan disappear into the darkness, Sheng Qian came out and stood in front of the mine, looking at the mine that had been almost completely mined.
In the blink of an eye, the two mountains in front had been leveled, leaving dark road tracks on the ground.
What I smelled was either the smell of machine oil or coal.
Sheng Qian knew that she couldn't over-exploit the resources.
