Chapter 36 Submit Proposal
Walking on the mountain road during the night shift, Xu Qiang felt particularly refreshed.

Just this afternoon, Xu Qiang's peat farm completed the production of a new batch of humic acid, and the output increased from 400 kilograms per day to 550 kilograms. This is undoubtedly exciting news for Xu Qiang, which means that the monthly output can be increased by %!

In addition to the extra money that can be earned from increased production, another very important point about this matter is that it allows Xu Qiang to realize the mechanization of the peat field ahead of schedule.

Right now the only mechanical equipment in the peat field is the water pump. According to Xu Qiang's design plan, he also wants to purchase a generator, a temperature-controlled water tank, a water purification device, as well as a crusher, a dryer, etc., so as to achieve the overall mechanization of the peat field.

If possible, Xu Qiang would like to buy another car that can transport goods, but this idea is probably not going to be realized in the short term.

You know, in those days, a Jiefang truck cost about 4 yuan. Perhaps this price may seem cheap in the eyes of future generations, but in fact, a "ten thousand yuan household" was already a very remarkable title in those days. There were several "ten thousand yuan households" in a county town, and a Jiefang truck was equivalent to the total assets of four "ten thousand yuan households". An ordinary worker with a salary of or yuan might not be able to afford half a car even if he worked hard all his life!
So even though the daily output value of Xu Qiang's peat field is equivalent to two or three months' salary of an ordinary worker, he still feels that he is not making money fast enough...

"Hey, why are you here again?"

Gao Bo, who was standing at the door of the workshop at this time, saw Xu Qiang and asked in surprise.

"Where else can I go if I don't come to work?" Xu Qiang said with a sneer.

"Didn't Captain Sun tell you this morning..."

"Yes." Xu Qiang glanced at Gao Bo and said, "He said I could go to the Information Department to check the drawings, and then I went there."

"Nothing else?"

"I didn't say it."

"Then you continue working." Gao Bo said unhappily after hearing this.

It was obvious that Gao Bo's plan to drive Xu Qiang away had failed. Although he was somewhat unwilling, he could do nothing about it.

Gao Bo really couldn't understand why the workshop director didn't listen to his advice and dismissed him when he was clearly just a dispensable temporary worker, but instead asked him to actually go to the document room to check the information.

But no matter what, Gao Bo has always looked down on Xu Qiang in his heart.

"I'm leaving."

Xu Qiang felt that Gao Bo was a little strange, but he was too lazy to think about it and just went about his work today.

Six tons of raw materials still need to be transported today.

However, compared with the previous few days, Xu Qiang's body has obviously adapted to the current night shift work. He didn't even sweat much until he finished all the work at four in the morning.

In fact, compared with the first pot of gold he earned from his current business, the biggest surprise for Xu Qiang after his rebirth is his current body. His abundant physical strength and vigorous energy allow him to handle the work on both the peat field and the factory with ease.

After checking the equipment drawings in the workshop during the day, Xu Qiang's technical improvement plan has reached the final stage.

The entire plan included four equipment layout drawings. As there was no special paper, Xu Qiang used the art book he bought from the supply and marketing cooperative. Although the paper was a bit small, it was basically sufficient.

In addition, Xu Qiang also wrote a technical transformation plan of more than 5,000 words, including some instrument and process parameters. Combined with the drawings, it is a complete set of equipment installation drawings. Although not detailed enough, it is enough for the reviewer to understand the technical principles. Due to the heavy dust in the workshop, Xu Qiang wrapped the materials and drawings tightly with a newspaper and handed them to the workshop director when he got off work in the daytime.

In fact, Xu Qiang did not have high hopes for participating in this military-to-civilian recruitment activity. It was only out of his instinct as a chemical expert in his previous life that he couldn't help but want to give some suggestions to the factory.

Also, Xu Qiang doesn't want to be a porter in the factory forever. His goal is to get an easier job so that he will have more time and energy to start a business and make money.

Time passed minute by minute, the sky outside began to gradually brighten, and in the blink of an eye it was eight o'clock in the morning, and Xu Qiang finally got off work.

"Is this the military-to-civilian recruitment plan you submitted?"

Seeing Xu Qiang handing him a paper package wrapped in newspaper, workshop director Sun Yulin asked in confusion.

Although Sun Yunlin is not a technician, there are still several technicians in the chemical workshop. Usually these technicians are mainly responsible for equipment monitoring and maintenance as well as product testing. The drawings they use are very large, definitely not as wide as letter paper.

"That's right, this is my technical transformation plan. Please, Captain Sun, help me submit it to the factory." Xu Qiang said seriously.

"Okay." Sun Yulin agreed readily, but a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.

The matter is obvious. It sounds like a fantasy that a migrant worker who works on the land wants to carry out technical transformation in a workshop. Even if it were someone else, they would never believe such a thing.

But no matter what, this is a serious public solicitation activity by the factory. Even if it feels obviously unreliable, Sun Yulin still has to submit this technical improvement plan.

"By the way, there is something I want to tell you." Seeing Xu Qiang was about to leave, Sun Yulin suddenly stopped him.

"What else?"

"Our military-to-civilian technology solicitation activity this time is not a child's play. Not only is it an internal evaluation within the factory, but experts from our provincial defense industry office will also participate in the selection of solicited projects. They are all the best experts in the province. If your proposal causes a joke and brings shame to our factory, you may never be able to get a permanent position in the future." Sun Yulin said seriously.

"What do you mean?" Xu Qiang said after a moment of silence.

"What I mean is that you should give up this activity as soon as possible before you make a fool of yourself in front of the provincial experts. It will be beneficial to you in the future," said Sun Yulin.

Sun Yulin’s words were actually very clear, which was to ask Xu Qiang to give up submitting this technical improvement plan.

The reason is very simple. If it is an internal activity within the factory, we can all participate. It will not damage the reputation of the factory anyway.

But if experts from relevant provincial departments participate in this activity, the nature of it will be different.

After all, all the product proposals submitted represent the factory's technology and strength. Anything too outrageous will only make the provincial experts laugh at it, thus affecting the factory's reputation.

From this, it can be seen that Sun Yulin has a strong sense of collective honor.

But he would never have thought that the person standing in front of him was a genuine top expert!
