Siheyuan: My wife is Xu Huizhen

"Limin Machinery Factory? We have this factory in Beijing?"

The man in the Mao suit said, "It's the Limin Machinery Factory that used to sell braised meat and electric fans."

"Oh, now I remember, isn't that a small factory on the street? There are only a few hundred people there."

The man in the Zhongshan suit nodded and said, "It's a newly established factory. We just collected information about them a few days ago. However, since they only accept unemployed young people on the street, there are no people from our factory."

A man with a foul odor said, "Did the intelligence say why we wanted to arrest him?"

The man in the Zhongshan suit wrinkled his nose and said, "Can you wash it next time you come? Intelligence shows that this machinery factory seems to have a new machine tool. We need to arrest Director He and interrogate him."

"What can I do? The job assigned to me is to dig out manure. It's still the same after I wash it. If you get used to the smell, you won't find it smelly anymore."

The man wearing glasses sitting in the corner asked, "Can't we just arrest his family and threaten them? Why do we have to arrest people directly? Or we can just let that slutty fox seduce him."

"These methods are too slow. Our superiors require us to find out the technical parameters and inventor of the new lathe as soon as possible."

"In that case, let's prepare for action."

He Yuzhu never thought that someone had already set their sights on him, and he thought that matters concerning machine tools were very confidential.

In order to continue eating the dishes he cooked in the future, Lu Xiaomi reluctantly acknowledged that He Yuzhu was her friend.

From now on, they will not only have a working relationship as superiors and subordinates, but also be friends in private.

He Yuzhu waited for Lu Xiaomi to go out, only then did he realize that he had not been able to play to his strengths.

Work ability is useless in chasing girls in this era.

After all, I don't have a good appearance. Although I have ability and money, I can't show off too much.

My strength is that the food I cook has already been prepared to perfection by my chefs and it can be said to be first-rate deliciousness.

If you want to capture someone, you must first capture their stomach.

This experience is universal for both women and men.

He Yuzhu doesn’t usually cook, he just eats directly from the cafeteria. Of course, the chef will make a separate portion for him privately, so that it tastes better.

However, around noon on the second day, He Yuzhu broke with his usual behavior and did not entertain anyone. Instead, he cooked two dishes himself.

When I arrived at the office with the lunch box, Lu Xiaomi just opened the door and was about to go to the cafeteria.

"You haven't gone yet. I just happened to have cooked too much today, so I'll give you some."

Lv Xiaomi asked in surprise: "Did you cook this yourself?"

"Of course. I felt that the dishes cooked by the cafeteria chef were not to my liking, so I made two dishes myself today."

Lu Xiaomi said happily: "Okay, just give me some food."

The two of them went into the house together. Lu Xiaomi put some of the dishes into her lunch box, then took it back to her room to eat.

He Yuzhu was very happy that the first day of feeding was successful. As long as he persisted, he would make Lu Xiaomi dependent on him.

Xu Xiaomei was the same at that time. She was still a young girl. If she put in more effort, wouldn't she be able to hold hands and embrace him?

Lu Xiaomi is even more beautiful than Xu Xiaomei, has a good family background, and is well-educated and well-mannered. Although it is a bit difficult to conquer her, as long as she perseveres, there is still great hope of taking over this hill.

Feeding was just a temporary interlude, and He Yuzhu continued to work.

It is still autumn now, but the heat of electric fans has long passed, and winter will soon be here.

He Yuzhu is now thinking about trying to see if he can make an air conditioner.

The most core component of an air conditioner is the compressor. If a qualified compressor can be produced, it can not only be used in air conditioners, but also in refrigerators and freezers.

There are still many application scenarios. He Yuzhu plans to use the autumn time to make a few compressors by hand, so that he can make air conditioners for heating and cooling in winter.

After dinner, I stayed in the small laboratory. Without any drawings, I could only design and make it by myself.

Lu Xiaomi came to the office with documents and did not see He Yuzhu. She turned around and went to the outside of the laboratory without knocking. She opened the door directly and saw the workbench was full of various parts.

He Yuzhu was assembling something there, so he walked over and asked, "Why can't I understand what you are doing?"

"This is something new, you certainly haven't seen it before."

He Yuzhu said without raising his head.

Lu Xiaomi curled her lips. He Yuzhu was really rude in his words.

Putting the documents in my hand in front of him, I said, "These need to be signed, and there is also a notice."

"What notice?" He Yuzhu wiped his hands, then picked up the pen handed to him by Lu Xiaomi and signed the document.

Lü Xiaomi said: "The street office just issued a notice saying that starting from next month, everyone can only receive 80% of their rationed food."

"Ah! It's starting already?"

He Yuzhu quickly signed his name and then saw the notice at the bottom.

There are official seals of the Grain Bureau and the street office on it. The gist of the notice is that due to the reduction in inventory, each person can only receive 80% of the ration starting next month.

He Yuzhu's ration was 32 jin, % of which was rice and flour, and the remaining % was corn flour and other grains.

The cornmeal at that time was pure cornmeal, not the cornmeal mixed with corn stalks in later generations.

The name of corn is different in different places. For example, it is called maize in the Huanghuai region, and it is called cornmeal in the Beijing-Tianjin area and the Northeast.

At this time, the so-called cornmeal refers specifically to flour ground from corn kernels.

"Only 80% of the time, you won't be able to eat enough after that."

Not to mention reducing the ration, even if it wasn't reduced, 32 kilograms of food would not be enough for He Yuzhu to eat.

If he hadn't taken out the energy from space to supplement himself, how could he have enough energy to do so many things?

"Yes, we won't have enough food to eat from now on." Lu Xiaomi was also worried.

Quantification has been implemented since 1955, although the system was not perfect at the time and many people found loopholes.

However, over the years, people in the food system are no longer just sitting there doing nothing and have already patched up various loopholes.

For example, the food stamp system was implemented to ensure that no one could exploit any loopholes.

Not only grain used food coupons, but also eight other common items such as oil, cotton, cloth, etc. all used the ticket system.

"In this case, we can only respond to the request of our superiors and post the notice so that all employees can be mentally prepared."

Lu Xiaomi sighed: "Well, this is the only way."

He Yuzhu said: "By the way, pack up and go somewhere with me."

"Which unit are you going to?"

"It's not another unit, it's another place."

Lu Xiaomi was a little suspicious, but it was still broad daylight, so she didn't ask any more questions.

He Yuzhu packed up, changed his clothes, took the key and came out with Lu Xiaomi.

The two of them went straight into the city and then entered Jiudaowan Hutong. Lu Xiaomi thought they were going to find some leader to use their connections.

Until He Yuzhu stopped in front of a small Western-style building.

There are many courtyard houses in the capital, but small Western-style buildings are very rare.

He Yuzhu took the key, opened the iron gate and entered the yard. There was a garage in the corner. He walked through the brick-paved corridor and opened the door on the first floor.

Lu Xiaomi was very surprised, and then she became extremely nervous. There was actually no one living in this yard. Did He Yuzhu want to force himself on her?

He stood outside, gritting his teeth and hesitating for a long time, before cautiously entering the living room on the first floor.

The furniture in the room is very Western in style, and there is a big fireplace.

It's just that no one has lived here for a long time, and there is dust everywhere.

He Yuzhu checked every room. There was a kitchen, washroom, and storage room on the first floor. There was a staircase leading to the basement at the back, and there was also direct access to the small garden at the back.

Go up the escalator to the second floor where there are several bedrooms, two living rooms and a shared bathroom.

The area on the third floor is much smaller, but it also has two bedrooms and a large open-air balcony.

The entire building is European-style, and the furniture is also European-style, which looks quite Western.

It seems somewhat out of place compared to the surrounding low-rise courtyards.

He Yuzhu checked the second and third floors, returned to the first floor, and asked, "Don't you want to go up and take a look?"

Lu Xiaomi was so nervous that she shook her head and asked, "Why did you bring me here?"

He Yuzhu asked back: "You don't think I'm here to do something bad, do you?"

Lu Xiaomi's face turned red instantly. This was what he thought in his heart, but he didn't expect He Yuzhu to point it out directly.

"No, no, why would I think so!"

He Yuzhu found his red face ridiculous, so he said, "I don't mean anything else. This house was awarded to me by the ministry. Here is the key. You can arrange for someone to clean it up in a few days."

When Lu Xiaomi looked at the key that He Yuzhu handed over, she realized that she had been thinking wrong.

Blushing, she took the key and put it in her pocket: "Well, I'll have someone clean it tomorrow."

"Okay, you can go straight home from work today."

He Yuzhu successfully played a prank on Lu Xiaomi today, making him worried and scared all the way. He did it on purpose, and didn't tell her until the end that he just wanted her to arrange someone to clean the house.

She had no shortage of space, as each of the women had their own courtyard. But she had not yet decided how to use the villa.

The next day, Lu Xiaomi arranged for someone to come and clean up, and then returned the key to He Yuzhu.

In the next few days, He Yuzhu spent time in the laboratory tinkering with his compressor.

Even if the wrong parts are made at the beginning, the system will gain corresponding experience and give subtle reminders, so that the user will instinctively know how to correct the mistake.

The action team targeting He Yuzhu first collected some simple information and found out his life pattern.

Fortunately, He Yuzhu was concentrating all his attention on the compressor during these days. In addition, Xu Xiaomei was pregnant, and the other women were not in a position to take care of them, so they did not notice that he had so many mistresses outside.

I just found out his daily schedule and learned that he often went back to the courtyard to visit his father and sister.

On weekdays, I live in the alleys on Qianmen Street and generally don’t go to other places except these three.

In the same room, the man in Zhongshan suit briefly told the information about He Yuzhu in recent days.

"There are more than 95 residents in No. 20 Siheyuan, with a population of over a hundred. It is not an ideal place to start a fight."

The man with glasses said, "His house is not suitable either. There's a tavern in front of it, and any slight disturbance here will alarm the people in front."

The smelly excrement collector said, "The only place we can do it is inside the machinery factory."

"I recently discovered that Mr. He's working hours were irregular. He would leave the machinery factory only after all other workers had left."

Without the company of a woman these days, He Yuzhu focused his attention on research and development.

I get back from the factory very late every day, and sometimes it is so late that I just sleep in the dormitory.

"Then let's get started right here in the factory."

None of them found out that He Yuzhu had another woman, let alone found out that He Yuzhu practiced martial arts.

But you have to know that He Yuzhu has reached the highest level, and even if they were given 800 courages, they would not dare to attack He Yuzhu.

Just treat him as an ordinary chef, no matter how good his skills are, it will not affect their actions.

After failing several times in a row, He Yuzhu gradually modified the parts. Seeing that it was becoming more and more perfect, he thought that as long as he worked harder, he would soon have made the compressor.

He Yuzhu works overtime every day in the hope of producing the compressor as soon as possible.

The machinery factory previously implemented a two-shift work system, mainly because there were relatively few lathes, but too many workers were trained.

However, the pressure has been relieved these days as the number of lathes has gradually increased.

After the machinery factory was formally established, we adopted an 8-hour work system, with only occasional overtime.

Today's overtime work has ended and the workers have left the factory. Lv Xiaomi saw that the light in the small laboratory was still on, so she came over and asked:

"Aren't you off work yet?"

He Yuzhu said: "I will have to work overtime for a while. We have reached a critical step. There is one problem that has not been solved."

"Then you stay here and do your work. I'm going to get off work first."

He Yuzhu said without even raising his head: "Then be careful on the road and don't run into any bad guys."

"It's okay. There aren't so many bad guys."

Lu Xiaomi said this and walked out, closing the door behind her, leaving He Yuzhu inside to continue working overtime.

I went back to the office to clean up, and when I came out there were only a few workers left.

When I pushed my bicycle out of the factory, I saw several people lying in a ditch beside the road. The man in the Zhongshan suit saw Lv Xiaomi and said, "Go get two people to arrest that woman."

A man dressed as a rickshaw driver said, "Why do you want to disturb others? You don't think the girl is pretty."

"What nonsense are you talking about? This woman is He Yuzhu's secretary. She should have a lot of secrets. If we catch him and use her to threaten He Yuzhu, we might be able to get some information from her."

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

The rickshaw puller didn't say anything more, and then arranged for two people to ride bicycles and follow Lu Xiaomi.

They waited until they reached a remote intersection, and stopped Lu Xiaomi from the front and back, pulling out knives. Lu Xiaomi was frightened and panicked, and then was taken back hostage.

At this time, all the workers in the machinery factory had left. Since they were all unemployed young people from the city who came to work, no one stayed overnight in the factory.

Only two people were left in the gate's duty room guarding the gate.

He Yuzhu was busy making parts in the laboratory when suddenly the door was pushed open and a group of masked bad guys walked in.
