Chapter 593 The abacus beads clattered! (Seeking monthly votes)

As early summer arrived, the temperature in Beijing began to rise noticeably.

People have taken off their spring clothes, and people are already wearing short sleeves on the street.

Amidst a festive atmosphere, the Gulou Repair Shop began to gradually move into the new factory area for work and living.

All the employees at the repair shop were overjoyed and excited.

Not only is the new factory area larger and the environment better, but it also has the employee dormitories they have been longing for.

Every worker who has visited the staff dormitory is amazed by its beauty and exquisite design.

The same applies to Director Chen from the street office who presided over the ceremony, as well as leaders from Beijing's industrial departments.

The tenement buildings under construction in Beijing and other major cities are nothing compared to the staff dormitories of repair shops.

There is no comparison in terms of either layout or space utilization.

Director Chen watched with envy, but could only feel a pang of jealousy.

Wu Aiguo didn't care about any of that; he finally had his own place.

A studio apartment with one bedroom, one living room, and one kitchen, measuring 35 square meters.

Of course, the cadre building next door is where his biological father, Wu Zhi, his stepmother, and his three younger siblings live.

With three bedrooms, a living room, and a kitchen, totaling 75 square meters, the layout and various ingenious designs would definitely be considered a luxury residence in Beijing at that time.

Liu Haizhong, the head of the farm's repair department, was also allocated a 65-square-meter cadre apartment, which thrilled him.

Then, this guy gave Wu Aiguo a huge surprise.

One day in early May, he invited Wu Aiguo to a small factory that had just been put into use.

This is the experimental workshop of the repair shop's technical department.

Currently, it is being used in bangs.

"You finished it so quickly?"

Looking at the all-metal mountain bike in front of him, Wu Aiguo couldn't help but ask curiously.

"The technology isn't difficult, it's just a little complicated!"

Liu Haizhong said confidently, "Of course, it's not enough for just me and the young people in the technical department!"

"I have a few apprentices at the steel rolling mill. I pull them over to help me after get off work, which is why it's so fast!"

"Oh, I see!"

Wu Aiguo nodded to indicate that he understood; in fact, he had known all this for a long time.

He even secretly provided Liu Haizhong's apprentices who came to help with a lot of the usual benefits of the repair shop, otherwise they wouldn't have been so enthusiastic.

They're all in their thirties or forties, and they all have families.

They are all skilled workers at the fifth or sixth level, and are considered the backbone of the steel rolling mill workshop. They can't be used for nothing.

Liu Haizhong felt it was only natural, but the repair shop couldn't do that.

And look, the results are already showing!
According to Wu Aiguo's idea, it would be quite good if the mountain bike could be completed by the beginning of June.

The fact that it was born a month early is clearly largely due to the stimulus of the repair shop relocating to a new factory area and having employee dormitories.

Of course, what Wu Aiguo found most exciting was the rumor he had deliberately spread: that the repair shop was expected to be promoted to a higher level.

In fact, Director Chen of the neighborhood committee had already discussed this with them.

Let's give the repair shop a double celebration during the National Day holiday!

I reckon the irritation the bangs received must have been considerable.

In particular, after spending some time with the younger staff in the technical department, the sense of urgency only intensifies. While their technical skills may not be as advanced as Liu Haizhong's at the moment, their future looks incredibly bright.

Just accidentally revealing a tiny bit of scholarly arrogance was enough to keep Liu Haizhong awake for half the night.

How could he not be worried?

If the higher-ups suddenly send a college student with technical skills and ability to head the technology department, Liu Haizhong worries that he will be marginalized.

Then all I can do is try my best to show off.

Wu Aiguo was aware of all this, but naturally he wouldn't show it on his face.

He got in and awkwardly started the car.

Well, the materials used are incredibly high-quality!
Except for the seat and handlebars, the entire vehicle is made of metal, so you can imagine how heavy it is.

However, the gear shifting was quite smooth while riding, and there was no jerking.

He was quite satisfied with this.

Then, he spoke with his father, Wu Zhi, who specially approved a sum of money so that the security personnel could cooperate with Liu Haizhong's production team to thoroughly test the long-distance riding capabilities of the mountain bikes.

Two days later, the mountain bikes circled the outskirts of Beijing, and the results were quite good; there were no technical problems such as breakdowns.

He then instructed the comrades in the security department and the young people in the technical department to ride their bicycles directly to Shandong and then return from Shandong.

Such rigorous testing alarmed not only Liu Haizhong and the young people in the technical department, but also the senior management of the repair shop.

"If the tests show no problems, this will become our factory's most famous flagship product!"

In front of his biological father, Wu Zhi, and several other leaders and colleagues, Wu Aiguo casually said, "Believe it or not, it's up to you!"

"Then what do you want to do?"

Wu Zhi asked curiously, "Are we going to start production directly from the mold?"

"No, no, no, this thing has just appeared, so naturally we need to make a name for ourselves first!"

Wu Aiguo shook his head and said, "Let's rush to produce twenty of them first, and then we'll have to submit a report to the higher-level industrial department through the factory!"

"Oh, we need to alert the higher-level industrial departments?"

Wu Zhi was taken aback. He examined the multi-speed mountain bike carefully but still couldn't figure out what was so special about it.

Not only him, but also the secretary, the chairman of the trade union, and others were completely baffled.

If it weren't for knowing Wu Aiguo's capabilities and understanding that he wouldn't joke around, anyone else would have been drowned in angry words long ago.

Liu Haizhong was naturally confused as well, but he had one advantage: he resolutely carried out the tasks assigned by his superiors and always made sure to do them well.

So, he finally managed to return to the courtyard house at No. 95, but he seemed rather distracted.

We'll have to wait a while before we can move into the new house at the repair shop.

Liu Haizhong and his family had been eagerly anticipating it for a long time.

Ever since we saw the new house, my wife and three sons have been talking about it all the time.

This attracted the attention of those who coveted it.

An elderly man named Yi Zhonghai came to the door and asked directly what would happen to Liu Haizhong's family's house in courtyard number 95 after they moved out.

How else to deal with it?

Liu Haizhong was quite puzzled and looked at Yi Zhonghai curiously, "The house was arranged by the steel mill and the street together. If you move out, you naturally have to return it to the steel mill and the street. Do you think you can just occupy it?"

"Hey Lao Liu, when you're checking out, could you talk to the steel mill and the neighborhood committee about giving the house to a family in the compound who's having housing difficulties?"

The embarrassment on Yi Zhonghai's face flashed by, and he quickly explained his purpose.
