Restarting life in Siheyuan

Chapter 426: Being fooled accidentally
The one hundred and fifty-three model was produced by Jingcheng itself. It changed some appearance from Zhu Xuefeng's original design. The price of components seems to have dropped a lot, otherwise the cost would have been more than one hundred and sixty.

"If you really want the radio, I can help you ask, but this may not be reliable, so I can only ask."

Silly Zhu knew that Zhu Xuefeng knew people from the radio production unit, and had been in trouble for this at that time. This time, he also played a trick and deliberately expressed his difficulties in front of Zhu Xuefeng, and Brother Zhu accepted the answer.

"It doesn't matter whether you succeed or not. With these three transformations, ninety-nine people in the Four-Nine City will be able to compete with you."

Although Silhu was playing a trick, he didn't take it seriously. It didn't matter whether he did it or not.

"Brother, you are really spending a lot of money on this. Do you have enough money in your pocket? I will help you do the math. Adding furniture and house renovations will cost a lot of money. You also have to prepare some miscellaneous things. Where did you get so much money? You Don’t tell me you earn it from wedding banquets, you can’t earn that much from pre-made dishes.”

On the surface, Sha Zhu’s salary is now 49.5, which has been upgraded by two levels. No matter how much he saves in more than a year, it is impossible to save so much. He Yuyu is a little doubtful, but she clearly remembers that Sha Zhu asked Zhu Xuefeng for her living expenses the year before last. borrowed.

"You don't have to worry about it anymore. Brother You is just a cook. He doesn't steal or rob, and there's no place for corruption. Just put your mind at ease and help your brother start a family in a down-to-earth manner."

Silly Zhu had already calculated that what he had saved, plus what Xiong Lin left behind, was almost three thousand dollars. Spending more than a thousand dollars to do something was nothing. When the pre-made dishes were opened again, these would not be a big deal. , just because he had this money in his pocket, he became more courageous, otherwise, he would not have taken action against Li Huaide at that time.

"You still don't know what kind of person your brother is. Don't worry, your brother is very capable."

He Yuyu stopped talking, lowered his head, took a sip of soup, and put down the bowl.

"I'm full. Brother, tell me how you arranged this matter. Are you still going to Baoding?"

Silly Zhu explained his arrangement clearly while eating.

"This matter has been arranged. When the time comes, the first uncle will come forward to help. If he comes back, I will ask his new wife to serve him tea. If he is willing to stay, I will provide for him in old age. If he does not want to stay, then I will take care of him. No more, go wherever you like.”

"Well, that's it." He Yuyu was probably still a little unhappy that his father had left him and his brother behind, so he didn't object to Silly Zhu's arrangement.

Seeing that her brother and sister were no longer discussing, the younger sister timidly interrupted.

"Brother, Jie Di across the street came to me and said that his brother wanted to borrow my watch when he was working on something. Do you think that's okay?"

Several people were stunned. There is still such an operation, borrowing a watch to do things?

"Then what do you say? Your watch has been worn for a year, so it must be worn out."

"No, I'll show it to you. I haven't replied yet, so I have to ask my brother to nod."

After Zhu Xuemei finished speaking, she hurriedly went in to get her schoolbag, took out a small bag made of velvet, untied the red string, and took it out. It was well kept, without a single scratch.

"What do you think?"

"I don't care, I'm just afraid she'll break it."

This is a prize given by the eldest brother. Most people don't have it. Zhu Xuemei is always very precious. No one has ever seen it in school. Only He Yuyu and Yan Jiedi have seen it in the yard.

"If you are willing, just lend it to him and pay for it if it breaks. It's such a simple matter. The watch is yours and you can make the decision yourself."

"Thank you, brother." Zhu Xuemei smiled. She cherished her friendship with Yan Jiedi. She was the only one in the yard who could play with her.

Looking outside, Banggeng walked back and forth several times pretending to be nonchalant. He understood that this was Qin Huairu's arrangement and saw that everyone had finished eating.

"Second brother, please help me clean this up. I'm going out for a trip, so I can take some time. The same goes for my little sister. There are still more than two months, so time is very tight."

"Ok, I know."

"I'll come, I've been idle for so long, I'll come, I'll come." He Yuyu hurriedly got up to start his business. Zhu Xuefeng and Zhu Xuefeng got up and went to the middle courtyard together like stupid uncles. Qin Huairu had been waiting for a long time, and hurriedly saw Zhu Xuefeng appear. Welcomed out.

"Brother, are you leaving now?"

"Well, if you guys are fine, let's go right now. The time is just right."

"Dele, you guys are busy, I'm going to take a break." Silly Zhu definitely couldn't follow this kind of thing, so he said goodbye and went home.

After a while, Zhu Xuefeng and Qin Huairu came out of the yard with Qin Jingru who looked expectant. The two sisters must have tidied up and looked quite neat.

"Xiao Feng, you're going out now."

"Hey, Uncle Liu, you're here quite late today. It seems you have a lot of work. I have something to do when I go out, so I'll see you later."

After saying hello, Uncle Liu seemed to have a good harvest today, and it was already past dinner time before he happily pulled the cart back.

"We are not sure in this industry. We are busy all the time and have no time at all. You are busy and your stomach is empty. I have to go and make up for it."

"Sister, do you want to make money by pulling a cart in the city? Why don't you let my dad earn some too?"

"Silly sister, this business is very hard. Uncle Liu, I'm busy all day long. It's a lot to have seven or eight cents. When it's windy and rainy, there's nothing to do. I can only rest. Your father is coming." There’s no place to live. Besides, they seem to have a fixed territory in this industry. When your father comes, they won’t let him take over the job. Isn’t this taking away people’s jobs?”

"I know, I know, taking someone's job is like taking someone's life, the old secretary always said."

Qin Huairu asked curiously, "What did the old secretary say this was for? Who is taking away someone's job?"

"In the second half of last year, the third son of the Ding family at the head of the village was downsized and sent back. He had a fight with his father at home. In anger, he went to his original work unit and beat up their leader. As a result, he was sentenced to one year. The old secretary Said, this leader was beaten without complaint and took away Ding Laosan’s job.”

Zhu Xuefeng couldn't hold back his laughter. A unit leader didn't have such great power. This was an unreasonable disaster and he didn't bother to explain it.

"Brother, whose house are we going to? How far away is it? Isn't it inappropriate for me to be empty-handed?"

Qin Huairu woke up only halfway through. She seemed to be asking for help. Is it appropriate to be empty-handed like this?

"There's nothing inappropriate. I choose a nanny to help take care of the children. If this job is successful, it will probably take several years. I think your sister is very suitable. You don't need to look after the child when he is older. Your sister is also older. It doesn’t matter if you want to go back or find another place to work.”

According to Zhu Xuefeng's estimation, if this is possible, he will probably have to look after her for three to five years. The street office does not have a nursery or a nursery, and by then the girl will be old enough to get married. "How many children are there? How old are they now?"

Seeing that Zhu Xuefeng didn't directly answer whose family it was, Qin Huairu changed the subject.

"The two children are not yet one month old, and there is not much going on at home. I will tell you directly to avoid you guessing. Director Wang from the subdistrict office, as you know, Director Wang is confinement at home and needs someone to take care of him at home."

When she heard that it was Director Wang's house, Qin Huairu was a little conflicted. To be honest, she was a little scared of the street director, but she was reluctant to take care of the children, so she said carefully after a while.

"That's a good relationship. Director Wang is very kind to the neighbors. Being able to go to their house to help, sister, is a blessing that you have cultivated for several lifetimes. You have to do your best."

Qin Jingru was also curious. She had only met Director Wang once, when he led people to seal up Xu Damao's house. Although she didn't know what level the subdistrict office was in, this person was a cadre and didn't run away.

"Sister, is this official a big official? Will he look down on us country people?"

"I must have been a county magistrate before, so I won't look down on you. Don't worry, I am very harmonious, and the relationship at home is also very simple. My wife is away on business for a long time, and she and her two children are usually the only ones at home. There is nothing to worry about."

Seeing that Qin Jingru was a little nervous, Zhu Xuefeng comforted him a few words, but then knocked again.

"But if you do things half-heartedly, picky, and have no discernment, don't go there as soon as possible."

"Yes, yes. I work very hard at home, right? Sister, you can help me by saying something."

Qin Huairu forced a smile on her face, "Yes, my sister can do anything at home, and she is eager to do everything. She is not the master of laziness. Don't worry about this. If she is lazy and has no life in her eyes, I will personally send her back. ”

"That's right, if I'm lazy, just send me home."

"I'm just reminding you, whether it works or not depends on whether Director Wang and you are compatible. I can't say. We'll see when the time comes."

Facts have proved that Qin Jingru is a good match for Director Wang, and even Uncle Kong is very satisfied.

"Where did you find this iconic figure? If you don't open your mouth, you won't look like a country girl. Okay, you are moving very fast. I was thinking that I should give you a warning in a few days."

"As long as you two are satisfied. This girl has been in the city for half a year last year. She is quite familiar with this area. She can buy food or do other things without getting lost. You can use it first. If it is not suitable, I will give it to you. You change.”

"When will your kid become a bitch? If you don't want to change it yet, let's go and let them chat by themselves. I'm leaving now. I have something I want to talk to you about."

The two glanced at the three women who were talking in detail and returned to the study.

"If you have anything to say, just tell me. It's still confidential."

Zhu Xuefeng didn't believe that Lao Kong would arrange temporary tasks for himself since he was about to go on a business trip. He also handed over the mobile phone and the paraglider, so what else happened.

"Why are you so anxious? I think you have time to be a human being. Can I find something for you to do?"

Uncle Kong said without smiling, "I know you are a restless kid. It's been almost a year and I haven't seen you bothering with anything anymore. I thought I'd ask you to help me again. Anyway, you were the one who started this matter." , it’s also suitable for you.”

"Is there any progress in the research on nickel-chromium batteries?" Zhu Xuefeng asked tentatively. In his heart, it seemed that this matter was still unresolved. Almost a year had passed, could there be any new progress?

"How can such a good thing happen? Battery research is said to be full of difficulties and is much more troublesome than imagined. For now, let's just make do with it. This is scientific research. We also understand that it is useless no matter how hard we press, let them toss. Bar."

Zhu Xuefeng was greatly disappointed. He still hoped that the research on nickel-chromium batteries would be successful and he would continue to research nickel-metal hydride batteries or even lithium batteries. It seemed that the development of history had great inertia. Although there was a direction, there was still no hope.

For a while, I had the idea of ​​finding someone to research batteries myself. Batteries play an extremely important role in Zhu Xuefeng's subsequent plans. Many ideas must be matched with powerful batteries to be of practical significance.

"Then what else can I do? I've already paid what I have to pay."

Uncle Kong smiled rarely, like an old fox. "This is not what I asked you for. The paraglider you handed over last time is considered by everyone to be of great practical significance, including your small engine. The Air Force has also made it."

"Then what else can you do? Use it if you like. You don't have to be equipped with this thing."

"You kid, um, you're right. First, equip us first. The key is the materials for the paraglider. We haven't researched it ourselves so far. We can only buy it from Lao Maozi. Now you also know the relationship between the two parties. It's a bit It’s subtle, people are not willing to sell this thing right now.”

"Uncle Kong, please don't be difficult. Firstly, I don't have the means to buy this thing. Secondly, don't forget that I majored in materials. I majored in gold materials. This thing belongs to the chemical industry and I don't understand it. ”

"What are you thinking, am I so confused? I don't understand this. I mean, the Air Force has been groping for several months, and they always feel that paragliding is too technical. The operating procedures you wrote are too simple. They always feel that they have not achieved what you said. I want you to demonstrate it in person a few times.”

"That's it. I don't believe it. They are professionals, more proficient than me. Only a few control ropes can stump them."

"You may be right, but all the airborne troops in Beijing have been transferred. Don't ask where they are. I don't know if they have learned it or not, but our people really don't know how. Now they have all got their umbrellas, but there is no one teach."

That's right. Pilots don't know how to do it. Zhu Xuefeng doesn't believe it.

"Let's just say it's over if there's no one to teach me. It has to be related to the Air Force. Well, my time is quite flexible now. I don't have much else to do except for military training soon."

Uncle Kong smiled again, not feeling embarrassed at all, "Military training is simple, we will send a letter, and then you teach them military training, and it just so happens that they can also teach you those basic training subjects. You are not responsible for this." I’ve passed the mission, but I haven’t even participated in basic training, so I can’t justify it.”

Zhu Xuefeng accidentally fell into Uncle Kong's trap. If he really went to participate in special training, his identity would be firmly established. Zhu Xuefeng pointed outside.

"Does the godmother know about this? Will she disagree?"

You knew without asking that Director Wang would never agree. Uncle Kong was really embarrassed this time and asked with a dark face.

"This is our big man's business. You just say whether you are willing or not. If you don't want to, I won't force you."

Okay, that's it for now. If you don't want to, the next step is to take back your ID and gun. Zhu Xuefeng has been using this little book to clear the way for more than a year. It saves a lot of trouble. He can't bear to hand it over immediately. A righteous statement.

"As an aspiring young man, it is my honor to shed blood for my motherland. Of course I am willing."

"Good boy, I saw you right, you are a real man!"
