The Grandmother in the Siheyuan

Chapter 24 Bargaining
The master and the apprentice were busy for a long time and finally went to the bathroom to wash their hands. Because it was almost time for lunch, they still had to pay attention to personal hygiene.

I met Li Huaide on the way. This guy had a smile on his face, as if a spring breeze was blowing on my face. He had his hands behind his back. If he opened them, I was really afraid that he would flap his arms and fly into the sky.

"Director Li, what are you so happy about?"

"Really?" Li Huaide touched his chin: "Am I so obvious?"

Ma Yushan did not answer, but asked Liu Hua: "Hua Zi, do you think it is obvious?"

"I feel like I'm riding high on a spring breeze." Liu Hua said with a smile: "Director Li's good mood is written all over his face."

Li Huaide smiled and said, "That's all thanks to you, the master and the apprentice. The Yellow River Plant is very interested in the water tank. Their technical representatives and relevant leaders will be here tonight. It doesn't matter if they don't take the bait. If they do, I'll have to take a piece of meat from them."

Li Huaide smiled and said, "You two, master and disciple, will be my guests tonight. You have to explain the water tank issue. Only after it is done, I can talk about the car."

"Then don't worry." Ma Yushan patted his chest and said, "In terms of technology, we, the master and the apprentice, will never let you down."

In the afternoon, Liu Hua independently maintained a machine tool, which was actually just applying some oil, tightening the screws and so on, but Ma Yushan was already very satisfied and kept praising his apprentice for his understanding.

How could he not have any insight? In his previous life, Liu Hua fixed all the problems with the machine tools of all sizes in his studio by himself, and he could even modify and optimize them.

So when he passed by the faulty machine tool, he knew just by the sound that the machine tool needed maintenance.

Facts have proved that this is indeed the case. After disassembling it, Ma Yushan said that if it had not been discovered in time, the spindle of this machine tool might have been severely worn out in two days.

Before getting off work in the afternoon, Li Huaide's secretary came to inform them that the people from the Yellow River Factory had arrived and asked the master and apprentice to go to the Transportation Department to help explain.

In fact, there is no need to explain this thing. The people who came here are professional technicians who specialize in brake systems. It's such a simple thing that you can understand it with just a quick look.

But both of them had to be present, and if anyone asked a question, they had to answer it no matter how simple the question was. Otherwise, they would be accused of being too self-righteous.

The technician from the Yellow River Factory was very dedicated. When the two of them arrived at the scene, the technician lay on the ground to observe the spray device near the brake drum.

Liu Hua quickly called out to Ge Lao Pao: "Chief Ge, you are being rude. Hurry and drive the car to the maintenance ditch so that the technicians can see it clearly."

"I wanted to move, but this technician came and just lay there and watched, and we were not allowed to move even if we wanted to."

Liu Hua helped the technician up and said, "Sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. Let's move the car over first so that it will be easier to observe."

Ge Laopao asked someone to drive the car to the ditch, and Liu Hua took the technician down to the ditch and accompanied him to observe the sprinkler device.

The technician asked questions while examining the equipment. Liu Hua did not hold back and told him all his ideas when he designed the water tank.

The technician nodded and said, "This spray device can be modified. Your current device is not reasonable. If it is modified, it can greatly increase the safety of braking."

"We are not a professional car manufacturer after all." Liu Hua explained, "And when designing this water tank and sprinkler, the Transportation Department had an important task, so we were quite anxious." "That makes sense."

While Liu Hua was communicating with the technician about his brake cooling device, he also shared with the technician everything he knew about automobile brakes.

It's very superficial. After all, it's not a related major. In his previous life, Liu Hua had a small truck and a car. This knowledge was the result of communication with the employees of the repair shop and his own online searches.

But this was enough to shock the technician. Occasionally, a sentence would make the technician suddenly realize something, and he would quickly write it down in his notebook.

"This young comrade is really talented."

After climbing out of the maintenance trench, the technician immediately reported to his leader: "If he can be transferred to our factory, our schedule for researching new vehicles may be greatly shortened."

Li Huaide had been chatting with the leader, and when he heard this, he became anxious.

"Why? I invited you here to share our factory's plan with you, not to give you people. If you want to poach our people, no way."

The leader of the Yellow River Factory looked at Liu Hua with interest and said, "Young comrade, are you willing to come to our factory? As long as you nod, I will take care of the rest."

Liu Hua looked at Li Huaide and shook his head. "I'm just a junior apprentice who has just been promoted. I think too much and don't know much about cars. I'd better study hard in the steel mill. I'm more interested in machines than cars."

Li Huaide nodded with satisfaction. This little guy is simply his lucky star. What's more, he has a good background. He should be won over.

"Okay, now that we've finished looking at the water tank, we should go eat." Li Huaide said with a smile, "The chef in our factory is an expert at making Sichuan cuisine. Besides, we should talk about business."

After three rounds of wine and five kinds of dishes, the technician pulled Ma Yushan and Liu Hua aside to talk about the previous topic. What Liu Hua said was so forward-looking. If it was realized, my country's automobile industry would be taken to a higher level.

Li Huaide was not idle over there either. He drank the best Fenjiu and asked the leaders of the Yellow River Factory to pour it into their mouths as if it was free.

"This water tank and safety belt from our factory have been a great help to you." Li Huaide said with a smile: "I know that you have put a lot of effort into solving this problem."

"Director Li, don't be so secretive." The leader of the Yellow River Factory said with a smile, "Just tell me what you want. I can agree to anything as long as it's not excessive. It's because you helped our factory solve such a difficult technical problem."

Li Huaide stretched out his hand and slapped him: "I just like your straightforward attitude. I won't ask for too much, five unplanned trucks."

"You can kill me, five cars, how much do they cost?" The leader of the Yellow River Factory shook his head like a rattle: "I can only give you one at most."

"It's not that I won't pay you. As long as you give me a share of the five trucks," Li Huaide said generously, "It's the right amount. Our steel mill is not short of money."

"If that's what you say, then that's fine, but you don't have five." The Yellow River Factory leader made a V sign and said, "You can only buy two at most."

"Okay." Li Huaide slapped the table and said, "According to what you just said, you give me one and I buy two, a total of three."
