Chapter 1825: Looking at your expression, something is up
After seeing everyone off, the two spent the better part of the night being intimate.
Fu Yancheng managed to charm Chuxue just as she was feeling moved, getting her to agree that as soon as the school term ended, she would pack up and take the children back to the military base.
Having achieved the result he wanted, Fu Yancheng returned to the military base early the next morning, feeling reluctant to leave.
When Chuxue woke up, the sun was already high in the sky. Recalling what Fu Yancheng had whispered in her ear that morning, her face couldn't help but flush red.
After the exams, there wasn't much of importance left at school.
Aside from cleaning the classrooms and dormitories and organizing class records, the most important task was registering the train tickets for out-of-town students to go home.
During this period, the school still booked tickets collectively, so they had to be tallied in advance.
Chuxue rested at home for a day and helped pack some of the things they needed to take back to the military base. Since she didn't need to pick up the three little ones at noon, she went to the First Ministry of Machine Building in the afternoon.
She delivered the translated materials and was assigned a new batch of medical literature to translate. It was a thick stack, enough to keep her busy until the start of the next semester.
Just as she left the ministry and prepared to take the bus, she ran into Jiang Wenyue at the intersection: "Chuxue, why are you here?"
Chuxue pointed to the gate not far away: "I came to deliver some documents."
Jiang Wenyue sighed: "Look at me, I completely forgot about such an important matter."
Chuxue looked at her with a smile: "Why are you here?"
Jiang Wenyue thought about the task she hadn't managed to complete, and a lightbulb suddenly went off in her head: "Chuxue, where are you going next?"
Chuxue looked at her eager expression: "Looking at your expression, something is up?"
Jiang Wenyue felt they were becoming more and more in sync: "There is indeed something, and this matter really requires your help to be resolved."
Chuxue looked suspicious: "Is it really as mysterious as you say?"
Jiang Wenyue explained the ins and outs of the situation.
The daily chemical factory had been moving to the Xinjiekou area over the past few days. They had used their connections to transport several machines phased out by a large factory in Shanghai. Among them was a German vacuum dryer with an aging sealing ring that was also leaking oil, requiring maintenance.
There was also an old Italian soap-pressing machine whose pulley always made a buzzing sound. Of course, the sellers had been clear about this when they bought it; the machine had been acquired through internal waste allocation for only 3,200 yuan. Including hoisting and shipping, the total cost was less than 4,000 yuan, which was still more cost-effective than buying a new domestic machine.
They had gone to the Beijing Daily Chemical Factory to find a master technician in the machine repair workshop. The man was willing to help, but some of the staff had been seconded to the newly established Second Daily Chemical Factory.
The remaining technicians had originally agreed to lend one person to help them repair those two machines, but as luck would have it, a West German vacuum paste-making machine (for toothpaste) in the first factory had aged severely and broken down.
The remaining technicians could only work overtime to repair it, but the original manual, written entirely in German, had stumped them.
Jiang Wenyue smiled at Chuxue: "Sister, let's go. It's our own factory, and every delay is money lost. Regardless of whether you have other plans today, you have to come with me."
Chuxue hadn't expected such a coincidence: "Fine, I'll go with you to take a look, but I can't guarantee I'll be able to help."
As they talked, they walked toward the bus stop. They were lucky today; the bus they needed arrived shortly after.
Jiang Wenyue took this time to tell Chuxue about the recent situation at the factory: "The overall relocation is complete, and production has resumed one after another. If these two second-hand machines can be repaired as soon as possible, our factory can still make a quick profit before the end of the year." ===== CHAPTER 1831 =====
