Pursued by the Heavenly Dao, first level up in the courtyard.

He Yuzhu, who was punished by the factory, was not allowed to bring lunchboxes home, and the quality of the food at the Jia family's house dropped several levels.

Previously, with He Yuzhu's lunchbox, the Jia family could have some meat almost every day, and every one or two days, they would have a big meat meal.

The food at the steel rolling mill is very good now. There's a meat dish every day, even if it doesn't contain much meat, there's still meat in it, right?

When the factory entertained clients or the leaders entertained friends, He Yuzhu would take the opportunity to make a tidy meal, ensuring that each lunchbox contained a generous amount of meat.

At dinner time, the Jia family was eating.

Zhang Cuihua couldn't help but sigh and complain, "What's wrong with that silly Zhu? He can't even bring back a lunchbox! How are we going to live from now on?"

Jia Dongxu's face was gloomy. He was already dissatisfied with Sha Zhu for always putting on airs in front of him because of the lunchbox. Now that there was no benefit for him, he resented Sha Zhu even more.

Jia Dongxu frowned and explained, "Mom, Sha Zhu got caught by the factory because he brought a lunchbox."

Zhang Cuihua said matter-of-factly, "He deserved it. He didn't give us all the lunchboxes he brought back every day. If he had given us all the lunchboxes, he wouldn't have been arrested."

Speechless, Qin Huairu also harbored resentment. Every time Sha Zhu brought back a lunchbox, she could eat some meat and occasionally have a treat. Now that the lunchbox was gone, it was difficult to even eat meat.

In the backyard, Liu Haizhong laughed and said, "Shazhu used to always hang around the Jia family, acting like he was so capable. Now that we're not letting him bring his lunchbox anymore, the Jia family will definitely turn against him."

Chen Rong said, "Sha Zhu isn't revolving around the Jia family, he's revolving around Qin Huairu. I bet if the Jia family didn't have Qin Huairu, Sha Zhu wouldn't have given them even a single steamed bun."

He Yuzhu, lying on his bed in the He family compound of the Intermediate People's Court, felt uneasy.

Ever since he came back without bringing his lunchbox, Sister Qin's attitude has changed drastically. Every time he tries to chat her up, Sister Qin ignores him.

"I used to bring lunchboxes back, and Sister Qin would always smile when she saw me. Now that I don't have lunchboxes anymore, I rarely see Sister Qin."

He Yuzhu, who was tossing and turning and unable to sleep, suddenly realized that Sister Qin was spending much less time washing clothes at the Central Courtyard.

Xu Damao, who went to the countryside to show movies, lived a carefree life. Every time he went to the countryside to show movies, he not only received extra benefits, but also got to eat and drink to his heart's content. Sometimes, if he was lucky, he could even have a secret rendezvous with some beautiful widows.

Xu Damao knew very well that those beautiful widows in the countryside weren't after him as a person, but rather his money.

Some widows with children were struggling financially and wanted Xu Damao to help them.

Xu Damao, who was attracted to the woman at first sight, had no intention of marrying the widow, but he was happy to get what he wanted from her.

Holding the letter of introduction, Qi Bing visited various sects and read through various Taoist books before heading to Yucheng.

His trip to Chongqing was to produce bulldozers and build a coal chemical plant.

Prioritizing the development of Yucheng is for two reasons: firstly, for the sake of our hometown, and secondly, because Yucheng possesses various advantages.

In terms of overall industrial base alone, Chongqing is no worse than the three northeastern prefectures.

With its strategic depth, Chongqing has a significant advantage.

Having lived two lives, Qi Bing disliked seniority-based ranking, outdated customs and bad habits, and even more so, he detested worshipping foreign things.

The technical data for bulldozers and coal chemical plant equipment were all disassembled and transmitted to various factories in Chongqing.

Qi Bing, who was temporarily residing in Chongqing, would sometimes go to the factory to solve problems, and sometimes ponder the cultivation method.

He not only read many books from various schools of thought, but also memorized them.

Even if Taoist texts do not contain cultivation methods or spells, some of their contents still have great research value.

Qi Bing planned to create a martial arts method that suited him and could enhance his strength, based on traditional Chinese martial arts and drawing on the concepts of Taoist and medical texts.

Qi Bing originally wanted to start a car factory, but then he thought about the road problem and temporarily gave up.

With bulldozers now in mass production, road construction efficiency will surely increase dramatically.

Once the highways are repaired and there are more highways, it's not too late to manufacture cars.

After the coal chemical plant goes into operation, it will not only solve the problem of fuel shortage, but also produce a variety of materials.

There are essentially two ways to increase grain production: one is to research high-yield grain seeds, and the other is to produce various fertilizers.

One of the products of the integrated coal chemical plant he developed is fertilizer.

"My master has established the Sanhe Company in the port city. The dock and warehouse are still under construction, and there are no products yet."

"Vegetables and fruits are difficult to transport. By the time they arrive in the port city, they are either spoiled or not fresh."

Before Qin Chu, Sanhetang meant harmony between heaven, earth, and people. Qin Chu, who was in charge of the docks and warehouses, founded Sanhe Company.

The Qi soldiers, who were smoking and puffing out clouds of smoke, were secretly thinking about products that were easy to produce and highly profitable.

After thinking for more than ten minutes, Qi Bing finally decided to produce high-powered liquefied petroleum gas stoves and high-powered natural gas stoves.

Enter the Xuanhuang World at night and use the synthesis skill to create two versions of the Fierce Fire Stove.

Through actual testing, optimization, and further testing and optimization, Qibing developed two high-quality, high-powered stoves.

"The two high-power stoves have simple structures, high combustion efficiency, and low production difficulty, making them easy to mass-produce. We will first manufacture samples in Chongqing, then have Sanhe Company handle the Bluestar patent application, and then mass-produce and sell them."

After finishing the technical documents, I returned to my lodgings and slept until I naturally woke up.

A few days later, a sample of the high-powered stove was delivered to Gangcheng Sanhe Company.

Qin Chu paid someone to register a patent for the "powerful stove" overseas.

Qi Bing, who is temporarily residing in Chongqing, is busy every day with the excavator project, the coal chemical plant project, and his self-created kung fu.

As time passed, the sample bulldozer was assembled.

After filling up the fuel tank, Qi Bing personally drove the bulldozer to test it.

Despite their large size, bulldozers are not very noisy and are highly efficient.

No problems were found during the actual test. After reporting to his superiors, Qi Bing ordered the various factories to produce and assemble the products.

More than half a month later, the installation of machinery and equipment at the coal chemical plant was completed.

After debugging and actual testing, the coal chemical plant began operation.

Matters related to the high-powered stoves, excavators, and coal chemical plants are handled by designated personnel, and Qi Bing is no longer involved.

Qi Bing attended several meetings in Chongqing and offered some suggestions.

Widen the streets and roads to make driving and parking easier in the future. Plan ahead for the installation of water, electricity, gas, and internet infrastructure to save time and effort later.

The day after returning to Beicheng, Qi Bing was summoned to a meeting again.

Some people accused him of favoring Yucheng, but Qi Bing's reasoned and well-founded rebuttal left them speechless.

Xia Kingdom currently does not have an aircraft carrier, and its aircraft are also very outdated. The factory is located too close to the sea, which would expose it to the threat of enemy fighter jets, bombers, naval guns, and missiles.

Chongqing's existing industrial base is no worse than that of the three northeastern prefectures.

Relatively important factories would also face significant risks if located in the three northeastern states.

Ezhou, Xiangzhou... Yuzhou have good geographical conditions, right? But the industrial base of these places is not as good as that of Chongqing.

For some projects at this stage, there are simply no better alternatives in terms of location.

After the meeting, Qi Bing had lunch and then rode his bicycle back to the east courtyard.

"Before we knew it, it was already early August. Let's rest for a few days before continuing to create new techniques."

Upon entering the east courtyard, Qi Bing casually locked the gate and headed towards the Xuanhuang World.

He went to Dongsheng Shenzhou, killed a goat, and took two goat legs back to Xuanhuang Mountain Villa in Nanzhanbuzhou.

One lamb leg for barbecue, and another lamb leg stewed with radish.

After enjoying a comfortable meal, Qi Bing practiced Tai Chi, Bajiquan, Xingyi Five Elements Fist, Xingyi Twelve Forms, Baguazhang, Wing Chun, Ang Quan, Hung Kuen... in the open space.

He only stopped practicing after mastering the Dragon Roar Iron Shirt, Tiger Roar Golden Bell Cover, Yi Jin Jing, Forging Bone Jing, and Washing Marrow Jing.

In the blink of an eye, Qi Bing appeared at Huaguo Mountain in Dongsheng Shenzhou. With a change of heart, he returned to Xuanhuang Manor.

After eating a few spirit peaches for a late-night snack, soaking in the hot springs for a while, changing clothes, and returning to the east courtyard to rest.

Around 7 a.m., Qi Bing packed his gear, rode his bicycle, and headed to the river to fish.
