The Beginning of the World: Going to the Countryside as an Educated Youth

Chapter 275 Liu Haizhong’s Invitation

"Haitang... Can you please come outside the courtyard later? I have something to discuss with you..."

Xu Damao rubbed his hands and said with a smile.

Yu Haitang looked Xu Damao up and down, and asked in disbelief, "What's the matter? Is it important?"

"Hehe, you'll know when you come here. Can I still fool you?"

Xu Damao's face turned serious.

"Okay, I'll wash the dishes and come over later..."

…………

"What? You said He Yuzhu has improper thoughts about me?"

"How is it possible... He is already married, and I have seen his wife, Ran Qiuye, a very beautiful and elegant woman... He must be secretly happy to have such a wife..."

Yu Haitang said in surprise.

"Hey... don't take it lightly. Why did Shazhu agree so readily to let you live in Yushui's room? Isn't that just eating from the bowl and looking at the pot..."

Xu Damao lied seriously and earnestly.

"No way... I think He Yuzhu is a pretty decent person..."

"You don't know... He originally had an affair with Qin Huairu, the widow in our courtyard... The two of them often flirted..."

"The food that Sha Zhu brought back from the cafeteria went into the Jia family's stomachs... Widow Qin even washed Sha Zhu's underwear. Tell me... How can this be okay..."

In order to get Yu Haitang, Xu Damao didn't care about anything else and told her everything he knew.

"Oh...really? That's too disgusting...what should I do...I want to stay here for a few days..."

Yu Haitang was startled at first, then felt something was wrong.

"You made this up, right? If that's the case, how can Ran Qiuye be with He Yuzhu? Besides, everyone in the factory knows that you and He Yuzhu are sworn enemies. You must be trying to fool me..."

"Okay, okay, I'll be honest. I can't guarantee whether He Yuzhu is interested in you, but you can go to the hospital to find out about the unclear things between him and Widow Qin. Are the things I said made up..."

Seeing that Yu Haitang was not fooled, Xu Damao quickly retreated.

"Okay, I understand. I will pay attention next time... Thank you..."

Having said that, Yu Haitang wanted to leave.

"Haitang, wait a minute... Now that you and Yang Weimin have broken up... and we are both in the factory's publicity department... you can get closer... and talk more!"

"Tsk... You can't say that nonsense, you..."

The two were chatting.

The second uncle Liu Haizhong rode his bicycle to the gate of the yard.

"Captain Liu, you are so busy that you just came back..."

When Yu Haitang saw Liu Haizhong coming back, she hurriedly greeted him.

"Hey, Haitang..."

"Come and see your sister..."

Liu Haizhong parked his bicycle and ignored Xu Damao's greeting.

Xu Damao put down his hand somewhat embarrassedly.

"Well... I just ran into Xu Damao and was just talking about you..."

Yu Haitang was afraid that Liu Haizhong would misunderstand the relationship between her and Xu Damao, a married man, so she hurriedly "explained" it.

"Okay, okay... By the way, Haitang, when you have time, come to my house. I have something to tell you..."

Liu Haizhong chuckled and glanced at Yu Haitang calmly, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

"Okay... I'll go over there when I'm done with my work..."

Yu Haitang nodded.

Xu Damao was treated as air and felt a little embarrassed, but more angry.

This old man has only been the captain of the workers' patrol team for a short time, but he already looks down on others in such an official manner.

Xu Damao secretly took note of Liu Haizhong in his heart.

Yu Haitang watched Liu Haizhong enter the yard, and turned around to see Xu Damao's face full of indignation.

He quickly reminded her kindly, "Liu Haizhong is now a favorite of Director Li of the Revolutionary Committee. He is very powerful in the factory. You can't afford to offend him..."

"Yeah... I know, I just can't stand him being like that... One day, I'm going to let him know that I, Xu Damao, am not someone who can be bullied..."

"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore... I have to go to Liu Haizhong's house later..."

Yu Haitang made a move to leave, but was stopped by Xu Damao.

"Haitang, go to Liu Haizhong's house first, and then come to my house... I'll treat you to some wine!"

"That's not good. My sister-in-law won't be happy..."

When Yu Haitang heard that there was wine to drink, he was immediately excited, because young people just like these things.

"Ah... To be honest... Lou Xiao'e and I are getting a divorce recently... She went back to her parents' home..."

"Ah? No, why? My sister-in-law is a very nice person..."

"Ah...you...never mind, come to my house later and I'll talk to you slowly..."

Xu Damao deliberately pretended to have a sad expression and spoke miserably.

"Well...well...I'll leave first!"

Yu Haitang hesitated for a moment, her curiosity about gossip was aroused, and the wine Xu Damao mentioned made her heart excited, so she finally agreed.

…………

Steel rolling mill, a workshop.

Zhao Dongchuan looked at the drawings, and after he understood them clearly, he started to work according to the drawings.

First, use a scriber, a ruler and a punch to carve different lines on the workpiece according to the method taught by Master Liu, and then start processing, such as sawing, filing, cutting, and drilling.

It didn't take long for the workpiece required by the drawing to be made.

"Sure! You can do it, kid..."

Master Liu Cheng watched the whole process with a serious face, until he saw Zhao Dongchuan finish the work perfectly, then he smiled and praised him.

"Master Liu, please take a look..."

Zhao Dongchuan handed the finished workpiece to Master Liu.

"Yeah... not bad, no problem... well done..."

Master Liu took the workpiece, looked at it carefully, and said with a smile.

"Although your move looks simple, it actually tests your ability... In my opinion, your level is not worse than those third-level fitters, you just lack some experience..."

"During the assessment, just do your best and it won't be a problem to pass..."

Master Liu encouraged with a smile.

“Thank you Master Liu for your careful teaching!”

Zhao Dongchuan thanked him.

"Hey... that's because I taught you well, and it's because of your own hard work... you're smart and you understand things quickly... to be honest, you're the most talented apprentice I've ever met in my life... you were born to do this..."

Liu Cheng was very happy and praised Zhao Dongchuan generously.

Zhao Dongchuan knew in his heart that he might have some talent, but he mainly relied on the billions of bonuses brought by the treasures released by the system.

But who says this isn't part of his "strength"?

After all, I practiced those skills myself, and the system pen was just a memory aid... So if you count it this way, I can be considered to have "talent", right?

Zhao Dongchuan complained a few words in his heart.
