Chapter 150 Ten Thousand Yuan Household

That afternoon, the thirty artillery shell samples that Xu Qiang had stored in the warehouse had been delivered. The rest was up to the factory. They would send a special car to deliver the samples directly to the Provincial Defense Science and Technology Office.

This means that Xu Qiang’s two military battery research and development projects have come to a temporary end. All he needs to do next is wait for provincial experts to conduct a series of tests on the samples and finally give a corresponding evaluation report.

After completing all this, Xu Qiang felt relieved, but immediately felt bored. However, there was nothing he could do about it because the factory currently had limited chemical equipment and he could not find any new product projects for the time being. He could only take a break for a while.

There is exactly one month left before the TV University examination. During this time, Xu Qiang can devote himself to study and make the final sprint for the exam.

As for what happened in the conference room today, it is estimated that it will spread throughout the factory soon, but Xu Qiang does not care about it, because he is absolutely confident in the military battery he developed. As long as no major problems occur, it will definitely pass the test. After all, this thing has become a very mature technology in later generations.

In the evening, Xu Qiang went to the workers' night school to study as usual, carrying the high school textbooks lent to him by Liu Siying.

As soon as they entered the classroom, Wang Yongsheng and his gang surrounded Xu Qiang, looking at him with admiration in their eyes.

"Qiangzi, you are amazing. You dared to go against the factory director and chief engineer at the factory leadership meeting and insisted on sending the products you developed to the province. This is amazing!" Wang Yongsheng praised.

"Brother Qiang, you will be my role model and example from now on. I wish I could be as strong as you one day." Little Cannon also said.

"You are already fierce enough. If you get any more fierce, you will hit your head against a wall. Don't learn from me." Xu Qiang said, looking at Xiao Gangpao.

Xu Qiang really didn't know what to say about Wang Yongsheng and his gang of rebellious young people. If it were in his previous life, he would definitely ignore such people. However, after his rebirth, various chances and coincidences made Xu Qiang and this group of people become "good friends".

"By the way, I have something serious to tell you." Wang Yongsheng pulled Xu Qiang aside and said, "Brother, I want to buy more goods from you recently. Our business is getting bigger and bigger. Many of my friends in other factories have sold out, and I don't have enough here..."

"So how much goods do you plan to import this time?" Xu Qiang asked.

Xu Qiang knew that this group of people suddenly came to work at the night school tonight, contrary to their usual practice, and they must have something to do with him.

"I want 6000 kilograms of shampoo. The clove-flavored soap sells best. Please give me more of this scent... All in all, I plan to order goods worth yuan this time!" Wang Yongsheng said after doing some calculations.

"Six thousand dollars worth of goods!?"

When Xu Qiang heard the amount Wang Yongsheng quoted, he was shocked.

Six thousand yuan is almost equivalent to the salary of an ordinary worker for more than ten years. When Wang Yongsheng took out all his family savings for gambling, he only took out three thousand yuan. In the factory, a family with savings of more than two thousand yuan was considered a very wealthy family.

From this we can see that Wang Yongsheng has indeed made a lot of money recently by selling daily chemical products.

"How many friends do you have out there? Can they really sell all these goods?" Xu Qiang couldn't help but ask.

"My business has really grown recently." When he said this, Xu Qiang had a bit of pride on his face. He said, "Many of my classmates in junior high school and technical school worked in other factories. We had good relationships at the beginning. Even though I didn't learn anything in school, I have many friends because I am loyal. Besides, they all want to make some extra money. Your products are indeed easy to buy..."

"Uh." Xu Qiang nodded after hearing that.

Xu Qiang absolutely believed that Wang Yongsheng was a loyal man with many friends. Even himself, a reborn doctoral student, could get along well with them. This showed that Wang Yongsheng did have his good points.

Moreover, this guy is really willing to take a gamble when he sees the right opportunity in doing business. This kind of courage is not something that ordinary people can possess.

Xu Qiang actually didn't expect that Wang Yongsheng's business in other factories is so big now. But in fact, within a radius of 100 miles, there are more than 30 small and medium-sized brother units that provide supporting services to Shengli Machinery Factory. Including family members and children, there are at least more than 100,000 people!

In addition, with the household contract responsibility system in rural areas, there will be more and more wealthy farmers. Xu Qiang's soap can be said to be of good quality and low price. Even if he sets up a stall to sell it in the local town or county, the sales volume is expected to be good.

"Then let's go to the bank tomorrow at noon and get this done," said Wang Yongsheng.

"Okay, but the money is too much and I can't take it. I'll just put it in the bank." Xu Qiang said after thinking for a while.

After receiving this payment, Xu Qiang's assets had exceeded 10,000 yuan. Although he did not have that much cash and still needed to supply goods, he had at least stepped into the threshold of a household with an annual income of 10,000 yuan.

It has been more than a month since I was reborn in this era. I have been busy almost every day. Now I have finally completed the initial accumulation of funds and earned my first pot of gold. However, this money is still a long way from Xu Qiang's goal. He wants to open a chemical plant of his own in the future, and this kind of enterprise requires a lot of funds in the early stage, so Xu Qiang can only continue to make money from the peat field business.

"Xu Qiang, are you free? I have something to ask you." Just as Xu Qiang and Wang Yongsheng were talking, Liu Siying also appeared in the classroom.

"Let's talk about it later." Seeing this, Wang Yongsheng immediately turned around and walked away.

Now everyone in the factory knows that the two are in the same project team. Xu Qiang made such a big fuss in the conference room today, and Liu Siying must have asked him about it.

"What's wrong?" Xu Qiang turned and asked Liu Siying.

"You have already developed the sample, why didn't you tell me? You even submitted it directly to the provincial government today..."

"I'm really sorry. I wanted to tell you something, but the situation in the conference room at that time... But don't worry, I have written a statement of responsibility. If there is any problem, I will take full responsibility." Xu Qiang said apologetically.

In fact, Xu Qiang did feel that something was wrong this time. As a member of the project team, although Liu Siying did not play a decisive role, she did help Xu Qiang obtain a lot of relevant information. Moreover, the electronic fuse adapted to the battery developed by Xu Qiang was also developed by Liu Siying.

"That's okay." Liu Siying smiled and continued, "Anyway, the help I can provide you is limited. I just think that since we are a project team, we should share the responsibility."

"That won't do. If the project fails, you will be implicated." Xu Qiang said quickly.

"You are responsible for everything you do in the factory. I just think it's not easy for you, just like when I first came to the factory..." When saying this, Li Siying seemed to fall into a brief contemplation, and then said to Xu Qiang: "By the way, do you think the samples this time can pass the provincial inspection?" "It's hard to say, after all, anything can happen..." Xu Qiang said after hesitating for a moment.

"If you fail in this project, it will be a big problem. My dad has been scolding you since he came back today..."

"You scolded me. What did you say?" Xu Qiang was stunned when he heard that.

In fact, when they were in the conference room, he could already see that Liu Biao intended to let him temporarily give up the project to avoid making things worse.

But Xu Qiang has no turning back, and he is very confident about his new product samples, so it is impossible for him to give up halfway. Besides, only if the project is successful can he gain a firm foothold in the factory. At the same time, he will have a certain say in technology, so no matter what, the samples must be sent to the province.

"She said you were too reckless and didn't know how to advance or retreat. She said she would definitely teach you a lesson this time..."

"Haha." Hearing this, Xu Qiang laughed.

"You can still laugh?" Liu Siying was obviously a little surprised by Xu Qiang's reaction.

"Then what can I do? Should I cry?" Xu Qiang spread his hands and said helplessly.

"That's right, but don't worry, I will persuade my father later and try to get him to exempt you from punishment. How can technological research and development be 100% successful? Accumulating experience is the most important thing. After all, failure is the mother of success." Liu Siying said.

"Thank you then!"

"No need to thank me. We are all in the same project team. But after listening to what my dad said about what happened this afternoon, I feel that this matter is not so easy to handle. You should be mentally prepared..." Liu Siying pondered for a moment, and then said: "Anyway, this project has come to an end for the time being. You should work hard to prepare for the TVU exam. As long as you can pass it, even if this project fails, the factory will still use you in the future."

"Okay." Xu Qiang felt warm in his heart when he heard this.

To be honest, girls as enthusiastic as Liu Siying are indeed very rare. However, the reason why the two have a good relationship is that they both have an extraordinary passion for technological research and development and are like-minded people.

What Xu Qiang didn't understand was that second-generation factory workers like Liu Siying have very deep feelings for the factory. To them, the factory is just a bigger home. In this regard, Wang Yongsheng is actually such a person. Although he has made a lot of money, he is still reluctant to give up his job as a formal worker, because once he loses this job, Wang Yongsheng may lose his sense of security and belonging.

But for Xu Qiang, he did not have such feelings. Although his father died in this factory, he himself was a time traveler. This factory was just a stepping stone for him to start, and he would definitely develop into a wider world in the future.

In the following evening self-study sessions, Xu Qiang devoted himself to studying wholeheartedly.

Just looking at the neat and beautiful handwriting of Liu Siying on the book made Xu Qiang slightly absent-minded, and his eyes would occasionally subconsciously look at Liu Siying sitting in front of him...
