It's the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye, and the factory is getting busier and busier. Each workshop is rushing to complete the tasks assigned by the superiors before, and the workers are working hard to compete with the previous one.

Wang Zhong took a set of plans and found Section Chief Xu.

"You can do it!" Lao Xu was able to be the chief of the technical section of the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill. He was not just a back-door guy who relied on connections, but he had real abilities, and it was precisely because of his own real abilities.

, that’s why Lao Xu was so shocked.

Wang Zhongdao: "It's just some immature ideas. I have to ask the section chief to help correct them."

"Your idea is very good. I will mention it to Factory Director Yang later. Let's find a workshop to pilot it first. If it is successfully implemented, we can popularize it."

"The section chief is far-sighted!" Wang Zhong gave a thumbs up: "He is very thoughtful."

Lao Xu said: "Okay, stop flattering me. In our technical department, you rely on your ability to speak, not your words!"

Wang Zhong chuckled: "Then I'll go out first. If you need anything, you can always call me!"

Lao Xu impatiently waved his hand to tell Wang Zhong to get out of here, his eyes always focused on the plan in his hand.

What Wang Zhong gave was not a technical change, but some suggestions on workshop layout and machine maintenance. Although they were not big, they were systematic. Lao Xu was a senior technician. When he saw this plan, he immediately

I can see the advantages of this plan.

It's just that there are too many aspects designed in the plan. If the changes are too big all at once, the workers may not be able to adapt, and they still have to be given time to adapt.

After driving Wang Zhong away and studying the plan for a while, Lao Xu couldn't wait to pick up the phone on the table. Not long after, Lao Xu came out of the office in a hurry.

"Wang Zhong!" Lao Xu shouted at the top of his lungs as soon as he went out.

Although Wang Zhong has been promoted to a regular job in advance, he is still just an ordinary technician and naturally does not have his own independent office.

"Arrived!" Wang Zhong immediately stood up from his workstation.

"Come with me!"

"Yes!" Wang Zhong quickly followed Lao Xu.

As soon as he left the office, Wang Zhong couldn't wait to ask: "Section Chief, why are you in such a hurry?"

"What else can I do? Of course I'm going to see Factory Director Yang!" Lao Xu said.

The Director Yang mentioned by Lao Xu is the director of the steel rolling mill, and he is mainly responsible for the production work in the factory.

The main job of the steel rolling mill is to roll steel ingots or billets into various steel products. The steel rolling mill does not make steel, but only further processes the steel.

The steel shipped out from the rolling mill can be officially put into use.

In the original drama, the second uncle Liu Haizhong followed Xu Damao in reselling steel, following the path of being the director of a branch of the steel rolling mill and the apprentice that the second uncle once led.

What they resell is the finished steel produced by the rolling mill.

Follow Lao Xu all the way to the factory director's office.

Factory Director Yang's full name is Yang Jianguo. He is a middle-aged man who is nearly forty years old. He was a soldier. He has a strong military style and is very capable in his actions.

"Old Xu, what's the plan you mentioned on the phone?" Director Yang asked straight to the point.

Lao Xu immediately handed over the plan in his hand: "I have read this plan. If it can be implemented in our factory, it will definitely be effective in enhancing production safety and improving production efficiency."

Factory Director Yang has been in charge of production for several years, so he naturally knows the importance of production safety and production efficiency: "Is it really possible?"

Lao Xu did not answer directly, but turned to look at Wang Zhong and winked at Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong immediately said: "Director, although I have not been in our factory for a long time, I have conducted an investigation on each workshop. The skills of our factory workers are definitely unparalleled. They are all top-notch, especially those who

These senior workers are all very capable."

"The cost of updating and introducing machines is too high, but as long as we make full use of our own advantages, through reasonable planning and staffing, coupled with scientific layout..."

Director Yang couldn't help but nodded. However, although Director Yang was in charge of production, matters in the factory could not be settled with just one word: "Let's have a small meeting tomorrow and discuss this matter at the meeting.

!”

There is no need to spend money to buy machines, and there is no need to ask grandpa and grandma to introduce a large number of high-tech talents. As long as some ordinary changes are made, how can Director Yang be unwilling to try it? It’s just that although he is the director of the factory and is in charge of production, but in the factory

After all, it is not his word, so matters in the factory cannot be settled with just one word.

There is only one month left before the Chinese New Year. After research and decision, the factory decided to wait until the Chinese New Year is over to conduct a pilot project in one workshop. If the effect is significant, it will be rolled out to all workshops.

The New Year's Eve is here in a blink of an eye. This is the first New Year that Wang Zhong has spent in the dungeon world of "Siheyuan". Before the New Year's Eve, Wang Zhong has finally completed the relevant procedures and is just waiting for the construction to start before he can start to renovate the toilets and bathrooms.

And the kitchen.

The wood obtained from the old man and young man from the Manchu Qing Dynasty was turned into a bookshelf and a large solid wood desk by Wang Zhong during this period of time a year ago. The original small desk was moved to the living room as a

The storage table and thermos bottles are placed on it.

Wang Zhong originally wanted to buy two more Taishi chairs and a high table, but unfortunately the space in his house was not big enough. If he really put so much furniture, the space would be small.

"Xiao Wang, why are you bringing so many bricks and cement back for the Chinese New Year?"

Since we went fishing together last time, the third uncle thought he had become more familiar with Wang Zhong. He watched Wang Zhong greet a few porters to move cement into the courtyard, and was waiting for him in the courtyard.

The third uncle, who had several pots of flowers and plants, came over curiously.

Wang Chong said with a smile: "I was in a hurry when I moved in. I didn't even have time to clean up, so I just wanted to take advantage of the New Year to pick up the house and renovate it a little!"

The third uncle nodded in agreement and said, "It's really time to turn your house upside down!"

The original family had lived in the courtyard for many years. Wang Zhong had just moved here, so it was reasonable to renovate it.

"It just so happens that you are not young anymore. It would be easier to find a partner if you renovate the house!" the third uncle joked to Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong kept smiling: "Third uncle, please stop making fun of me. This partner is not so easy to find."

"You are a college student and a cadre. You have high salary and good treatment. Why is it so hard to find someone?" The third uncle put his hands behind his back with a smile on his face.

"Then I accept your good advice!" Wang Zhong cupped his hands and said, "I'm still busy, so I won't chat with you!"

"Go about your business."

They all lived in the same courtyard, so naturally Wang Zhong couldn't hide such a big move from other people in the courtyard. No, when the brothers He Yuzhu and He Yuyu heard the commotion, they rushed over.

"Brother Wang Zhong, what are you going to do with all these bricks and cement?" He Yuyu asked crisply.

He Yuzhu picked up the bricks stacked in the yard, raised one foot and stepped on the bricks, and said, "We brought so many bricks here to separate the house, right?"

Wang Zhong smiled and said: "It is true that we plan to separate them, but I will definitely not be able to do it alone. I need your help, Brother Zhu."

"Brother, don't worry, I have over a hundred kilograms of meat at your disposal." He Yuzhu said, patting his chest.

"Brother Wang Chong, I can also help." He Yuyu, who was standing next to him, volunteered.

"Then I won't be polite to you two brothers." Wang Chong said with a smile.

On that day, with the help of brother and sister He Yuzhu, Wang Zhong officially began to renovate the house.

First, bury the sewer pipe, and then introduce the water from the yard into the house. Fortunately, Wang Zhong himself works in the steel rolling mill, so it is not a problem whether it is the water inlet pipe or the water outlet pipe. He Yuzhu helped dig the hole and adjust the ash, and the rainwater helped clean up the house.

, prepare meals and be responsible for logistics.

After only three days, the toilet and bathroom were separated. It was 3.6 meters long and 2.4 meters wide. The toilet and bathroom were inside, and the sink was outside. There was no need to go outside to wash up in the morning and evening.

The bedpan is made of cement mortar, and the water tank is also installed. It is a convenient water tank designed by Wang Zhong himself. The washbasin is made of red bricks. There is only one faucet in the bathroom for the time being, and there is no shower head. Mainly because there is no shower head.

Hot water cannot be used even after being connected, so we have to boil water for the time being.

The winter in Peiping is cold, which is not suitable for work related to mud and water, because water does not evaporate easily, and once it freezes, it is easy to damage the concrete structure. Fortunately, the stove is burning in the house all day long, and the temperature is always maintained.

, even at night, the briquettes are still continuously heating the house.

However, because there is no septic tank, you can only urinate in the toilet. If you want to defecate, you have to use tools.

We just have to wait until spring to refill the septic tank, and then it can be used normally.

As for the kitchen outside the bathroom, it is also 3.6 meters long and 2.4 meters wide. There is a long square table against the wall. Next to the door is the stove. The white iron pipe extends outside the house. Next to the white iron pipe, there is a solid nail on the wall.

There is a locker above, where all the oil, salt, seasonings, etc. are stored.

On the fourth day, the brother and sister He Yuzhu helped Wang Zhong clean out the house and send the remaining garbage out of the house.

Looking at the clean and tidy kitchen and bathroom, the brother and sister's eyes lit up. He Yuzhu was a little better. After all, he was a rough old man and lived a rough life.

But rain is different. Which girl doesn't want to live a more refined life.

The kitchen is okay. After all, it is only used temporarily in winter. In spring, summer and autumn, cooking is still outside.

But the toilet and bathroom designed by Wang Zhong really made this girl envious.

"Brother Wang Zhong, can I try?"

"Welcome anytime." As soon as Wang Zhong finished speaking, He Yuyu's pretty face turned red, but he still couldn't wait to open the door and enter the toilet, and opened Wang Zhong's new toilet.

Although the concrete still needs watering and maintenance for a few days, it does not affect normal use at present.

After a while, the sound of flushing water came from the toilet.

"Brother, let's build the same one?" He Yuzhu said excitedly as he came out of the toilet.

He Yuzhu's face immediately showed a look of embarrassment.

It was Wang Zhong who explained: "My house is in the front yard, close to the outside, and it is easy to connect the pipes. But your house is in the middle yard, and there are several households and houses separated from the front, back, left, and right. It is difficult to deal with the drainage pipes alone."
