So this group of people were not happy with it and started pointing and talking in the crowd. After hearing what they said, many customers gathered around the porcelain counter to watch the fun.
The people queuing in front of the porcelain counter also heard the discussions around them. They puffed out their chests and felt very proud. The customers crowded in front of other counters were unhappy and asked the salesperson why they didn't queue up. Was the porcelain counter the demonstration counter of the supply and marketing cooperative, or was the salesperson at the porcelain counter the model pacesetter of the supply and marketing cooperative?
So, under the leadership of Qiao Qinglu, the sales clerks of the supply and marketing cooperative were forced to fight back, especially those colleagues who had just looked down on her. They all followed her example, as they didn't want to be outdone by Qiao Qinglu.
When Deputy Director Qin came to inspect the counters in the afternoon, he saw that the entire first-floor counters were full of people queuing to buy things. Every salesperson had a brand new spirit. Not only were there no lazy people, but they all had smiles on their faces and served customers politely.
This was totally unexpected (far from the mark). This effect had already occurred before the morning meeting even started. It was completely beyond her expectations.
Qiao Qinglu is really a character.
Although she asked around and still couldn't figure out why they were so competitive, Deputy Director Qin Baisibudeshe still went upstairs in high spirits.
Qiao Qinglu said that it’s a habit, there’s nothing you can do if someone is too outstanding┓( ´∀` )┏
The day's work finally ended. After rubbing her sore calves, Qiao Qinglu dressed warmly and rode her bike home.
Xiao Qinyun arrived home before her and had already started cooking in the kitchen.
After Qiao Qinglu found out that Xiao Qinyun knew how to kill fish, the two decided to divide the work. Qiao Qinglu made pepper and salt shrimps and vegetables, while Xiao Qinyun made braised fish and steamed mantis shrimps.
Although their cooking skills were just so-so, the fish, shrimp and vegetables were all produced in the space. Just like what the first episode of the first season of "A Bite of China" said, "High-end ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods", so the mantis shrimp and green vegetables tasted delicious, and they were very satisfied with the dinner.
Xiao Qinyun drank a bottle of beer, and Qiao Qinglu drank a glass of coconut milk. Although she also wanted to have some red wine, as a pregnant woman she still had to pay attention to her diet.
After dinner, Xiao Qinyun held Qiao Qinglu in his arms and stood in front of the main hall. He asked Qiao Qinglu, "Are you tired from working all day today? Has my Qinglu been bullied?"
Qiao Qinglu rolled her eyes at him and said, "Do I look so easy to bully? Work went smoothly today."
Xiao Qinyun smiled. "I don't think Tu Lili has the guts to do anything anymore. Otherwise, I don't know if she can keep her temporary job. Have I ever told you that I don't like tube-shaped buildings either? I prefer these old courtyards. There's an old saying, 'ceiling, fish tank, pomegranate tree, husband, fat dog, and chubby girl.' This kind of life is very comfortable, and I like it very much."
Qiao Qinglu nuzzled his chest. "I like it too. This kind of yard is so spacious and comfortable. Living in a tube-shaped building is not only inconvenient, but most importantly, there's no privacy. You have to be cautious about what you say, do, or eat. It's not very friendly to someone as secretive as me. We can build a ceiling, but we probably can't put a fish tank in our house right now."
Xiao Qinyun couldn't help but stroke her hair. "Yes, we can't put up a fish tank for now, and I don't have any ideas about the pomegranate tree. The ancients loved pomegranates so much because they symbolized fertility and happiness. We already have a son and a daughter, so why do we need a pomegranate tree? After the yard is completely renovated, we can build a canopy in the inner courtyard and plant some grapes."
Qiao Qinglu turned her head and looked at him: "Hey, I really like eating grapes. I can go to the space and pick out the ones that are growing strong, and then move them out."
Xiao Qinyun tapped her nose and said, "Just listen to my wife."
Qiao Qinglu jokingly said, "Really? You'll listen to me in everything?"
Xiao Qinyun said with a doting look, "Really, it's more real than pearls."
The two of them snuggled together under the corridor, with a gentle breeze and picturesque scenery.
The next day at work, during the morning meeting, Deputy Director Qin praised the sales clerks at all the counters. Of course, he especially praised Comrade Qiao Qinglu for her active work, seriousness and responsibility, and called her a good comrade, and asked everyone to learn from her.
After she finished speaking, Deputy Director Qin took the lead in applauding her. Some sales assistants, such as Zhang Mudan, sincerely applauded her; some sales assistants, such as Tu Lili, were still disdainful, thinking that she was just playing tricks. However, none of this could affect Qiao Qinglu's mood.
Of course I am happy to be praised in public by my leader.
A few days later, people from the Supply and Marketing Cooperative came to inspect their work and found that their sales staff were in high spirits, had a good service attitude, there were long queues, and customers praised them.
So the people from the headquarters praised Wang Yuren highly and said that they would report to the leaders. When the supply and marketing system commendation conference was held later, they would let Wang Yuren make a typical speech and let all the supply and marketing cooperatives in Yanjing learn from their advanced experience.
Wang Qiren was so happy that he was at a loss as to what to do. After discussing with Deputy Qiren Qin, he praised Qiao Qinglu at a morning meeting and gave her 10 yuan in cash, two 1-jin grain coupons, and two 3-foot cloth coupons as encouragement. The other sales staff also received 2 yuan in cash and one 1-jin grain coupon as rewards.
Everyone was very happy to receive this surprise. Some people were a little unwilling to be squeezed out these days, but now they put their little thoughts aside. They didn't dare to offend Wang Yiren, so they just went back to work.
In the past two weeks, Qiao Qinglu's work has become more and more handy. The black goods were delivered as usual, and the renovation of the yard was also completed. After Xiao Qinyun and Qiao Qinglu carefully inspected the yard, they happily settled the balance with Master Wang and others.
At the same time, they placed another order with Master Wang. Considering the size of the room, they customized a large bookcase on one wall, a large bed, a set of four-door cabinets with top boxes, a dressing table, a dressing stool, two sets of eight-immortal tables (with four armchairs outside), a sideboard, three chests of drawers, four large wooden boxes, a large baby bed, two small cradles, three coat racks, a set of cupboards, wall cabinets and a bathroom cabinet. The materials were elm, beech or Manchurian ash.
This time, I requested that cabinets, wall cabinets, bathroom cabinets, sideboards and the two sets of eight-immortal tables and chairs be made first. I paid a deposit of 400 yuan, and Master Wang wrote me a receipt. He instructed me to make this batch in about half a month, and the rest would be delivered in about a month.
In addition to these, Xiao Qinyun's research has also made major breakthroughs.
Some time ago, he had already solved the problems of the electric pressure cooker's safety device, insulation switch, and lever switch. During this period, he has been studying the material issues of the pot body and lid.
In order to find suitable materials, Xiao Qinyun would go to bookstores and libraries to look up relevant books whenever he had time. He also asked his master, Jiang Tierong, chief engineer of the machinery factory, for some materials for experiments.
Finally, he found a suitable aluminum alloy to be used as the inner pot, and iron and plastic products to be used as the pot body and lid.
Now the only thing missing is the inner pot coating. This problem was discovered during his research. Modern pots basically do not stick to the bottom when cooking, which is very different from traditional pressure cookers.
This question touched upon his blind spot, and he planned to ask the master again to see if he knew of any items that could make the metal surface particularly smooth and corrosion-resistant.
Qiao Qinglu thought Xiao Qinyun was amazing, smart and hardworking. He had figured out everything about an electric pressure cooker that was technologically ahead of its time by disassembling it and looking up information in just over a month.
Once he actually makes this electric pressure cooker, it will surely amaze the whole country.
