Chapter 262 Guests Come to the House
"Click!" The machine started to run slowly and returned to its original use.
Zhang Yuan also found some materials and tested the running functions in the machine to confirm that there were no problems.
Si Tian nodded with satisfaction: "It seems that Mr. Jiang's craftsmanship is really good."
Jiang Wang showed a relieved smile on his face: "Thank you, Second Master, for giving me the opportunity."
"Mr. Jiang, would it be convenient for us to go to another place to chat?" Si Tian reached out and touched the two children's heads.
"Please in, Second Master." Jiang Wang actually had a lot of questions in his mind.
Si Tian asked Hu Zi to push him to the office, and the two children followed him.
Hu Zi wisely went to guard the door.
"Please take a seat." Si Tian asked the three of them to sit on the sofa.
Jiang Wang looked at his clothes. They were stained with a lot of stains when he just repaired the machine.
He was a little hesitant about whether to sit down. If he sat down, he would lose the sofa.
"Grandpa, uncle, aunt, these are for you." Juanjuan ran over holding three raincoats.
"Thank you, Miss." Jiang Wang smiled and put on his raincoat so that he wouldn't have to worry about getting the sofa dirty when sitting on it.
Si Jinchen poured water for the three of them: "Grandpa, uncle, aunt, drink some water."
Jiang Wang's face was full of smiles. How could these two children be so well-behaved?
Si Tian touched the two children's heads and said, "Go draw on the table over there!"
Si Jinchen took Juanjuan's hand and went to the table beside him, took out paper and pen and started drawing.
"Second Master, there are some things you didn't finish saying yesterday." Jiang Wang withdrew his gaze from the two children.
"I haven't finished yet. I hope Mr. Jiang and your children can contribute to Beiyang City." Si Tian looked at him and said.
Jiang Wang looked at him with some doubt, then at his children beside him: "Second Master, we are just ordinary people from the slums. We can't even read a single word. How can we contribute to Beiyang City?"
"Your craftsmanship. I think you also know that the factories and machines in Beiyang City are all foreigners, and the people who can repair these machines are also foreigners."
"And we will be controlled by others in every way. I don't want that, and neither does my brother. So I hope you can help us."
"Your craftsmanship, no matter what kind of machine it is, I think given time you'll be able to figure it out, and maybe even find ways to improve it."
After Si Tian finished speaking, he looked at the three of them.
Jiang Wang did not speak immediately, but fell into silence.
He has loved making these things since he was a child. He started by making small bicycle models and later tried various detachable machines.
But he was illiterate and had no way to record or write it down, so he could only drag his children to do it together.
He hopes that these things can be passed on one day. He doesn't know who they can help, but he thinks they will come in handy one day.
Today was a turning point for them. He had thought that no one would believe that he could repair these things until the day he died.
But some people believed it and were willing to give him a chance to try.
"Second Master, there are many things in the machine that I can't accomplish. I'm using clumsy methods that can't compare to the mass-produced products of foreigners."
Jiang Wang said what he couldn't accomplish.
"I know, but you always have ideas for repairs and improvements. We can try. Just because it doesn't work now doesn't mean it won't work in the future."
"I know you all can't read, so I'll have someone record it and compile it into a book. Maybe one day these things will come in handy."
"I'll hire you to repair the factory's machinery. I'll pay you wages every month, and you can move into the factory to live. The conditions here aren't exactly great, but they'll be better than in the slums."
Si Tian did not expect him to improve everything and increase production efficiency as soon as he arrived.
But you can give it a try. More opportunities to try won’t be a bad thing for him or the entire Beiyang City.
Jiang Wang's family was touched, and other than that, they were all grateful people.
There is a reason why my daughter suddenly got better. Today, Doctor Huai asked them what they had eaten.
Knowing that she had taken a pill given by Miss Juanjuan yesterday, Doctor Huai said that they were lucky because he made the pill.
There are many precious pills in it, the most valuable of which is the hundred-year-old wild ginseng, which was left over from saving the young master.
Finally, he made some life-saving pills and gave them to the Governor's Mansion.
Regardless of whether Si Tian said this to him today, his family accepted the favor and wanted to repay it.
Now that they had the chance, they naturally wouldn't refuse: "We are willing. In the future, as long as Second Master and the Governor can use us, as long as you ask, our family will not hesitate."
"In that case, I'll have someone take you back. You can pack up and move in. There's a small courtyard here that's vacant and suitable for your family of four."
Si Tian handed the rest of the matters to Zhang Yuan.
After Jiang Wang took his children away, the guy who was preparing the ingredients outside the door hurried in.
"Second Master."
Si Tian saw that he was a little confused: "What's wrong?"
"Look at this." The young man handed him the materials he had made.
Si Tian took the material in his hand and looked through it. This material was softer than the previous one, and had better elasticity and toughness.
"Did you make it?"
The young man looked at the two children and said, "It was Miss Juanjuan and Master Achen who helped, but I didn't remember."
"Second uncle, I'll remember it." Si Jinchen said with a smile.
"Then please help your second uncle write it out!" Si Tian didn't have any questions.
After getting it, the guy immediately started to study and equip it. Before, it was only a small amount, but now it has to be accurate.
Si Tian waited until he finished his work here before preparing to take the two children back.
He doesn't have to worry about the rest, others know what to do.
He also went to the Governor's Office.
Siming was a little surprised to see him and the two children: "Why are you here together?"
"I have something to ask you, and by the way, do you want to go home for dinner?" Si Tian looked at him with a smile.
Siming looked at the time. There wasn't much to do today. "Let's go. We'll talk on the way."
The two got in the car. Si Ming held Juan Juan in his arms and looked at the paper Si Tian handed over: "What is this?"
"Dad, this should be an inflatable rubber boat. I saw it in the book Jerry gave me, but it was all in foreign words and I didn't know what it was. I just think it looks a bit like it."
Si Jinchen walked beside him and explained it to him.
"Aren't those books all about military affairs and weapons?" Siming remembered flipping through a few of them at that time.
"Yes, so when I saw this thing, I felt it looked familiar." Si Jinchen nodded.
"When you get home, find it and let me see it." Si Ming said to Si Jinchen while looking at the things on the paper.
As soon as they got home and got out of the car, they saw the housekeeper waiting at the door.
"Commander-in-Chief, Second Master, we have guests at home. The old lady asked me to wait for you here and told you to go to the main living room when you return."
The butler spoke respectfully to several people.
