After the family has breakfast, it’s time to go to work and go out on the street.

Yi Ping'an pushed his bicycle out and wanted to take Yi Zhonghai to work. Yi Zhonghai asked Yi Ping'an to go first and he would go with Jia Dongxu. Yi Ping'an knew what he meant and didn't say much. He believed that his father was definitely not stupid since he could survive the war and famine.

Yi Ping'an rode his bike straight to the steel rolling mill. He did not go to the workshop but to the logistics department. After finding out the office of the Housing Management Section, he went there.

When... when... when...

Someone from the Housing Management Section had already come to work and the door was open, but Yi Ping'an still knocked on the door. A woman in her thirties was wiping the table inside.

When he saw Yi Ping'an, he asked, "Excuse me, who are you looking for?"

"Is this the housing management section? I'm Yi Ping'an from the technical department, and I'm here to see your section chief." Yi Ping'an's current relationship is with the technical department.

"Then please sit down for a while, our section chief will be here soon." After saying that, he poured a glass of water for Yi Ping'an. Yi Ping'an thanked him and waited for the section chief to come in the empty seat.

After a while, a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties arrived. As soon as he entered the room, he heard the woman say, "Chief, someone is here to see you."

Yi Ping'an knew that this was the section chief, and he immediately stood up and greeted him, "Hello, section chief, I'm Yi Ping'an, I have something to talk to you about."

"Hello, Mr. Yi, my last name is Zhang Liming. Sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. Please come to my office." Zhang Liming said as he walked inside. There was a cubicle office. He opened the door and welcomed Yi Ping'an in.

Yi Ping'an explained his purpose and handed the blueprint to Zhang Limin. Zhang Limin took it, looked at it, and said, "Engineer Yi, if we build according to your blueprint, there will be no problem with the construction, but there are two issues I want to clarify with you.

First, I can get you the squat toilet in this toilet, but it’s a bit expensive, costing 15 yuan. This is what’s left over from my purchases when I was doing the renovation for my boss.

Second, we don’t have your boiler, but we can install it for you.

If there is no problem, I will give you an estimate for the part you added according to the drawing."

"No problem. I'll prepare the boiler myself, and you'll need to help me with everything else. Can you help me calculate the total cost?" Yi Ping'an did not hesitate.

Zhang Liming lowered his head and calculated for a while, then looked up and said to Yi Ping'an: "Engineer Yi, I estimated that it will cost about 500 million yuan in total, plus the workers' food and meals, all of which are included. If you provide meals, subtract another 20 yuan." At that time, meals had to be provided when building a house.

Yi Pingan thought about it. He didn't know how much it would cost to build a house at this time, but he knew that the Housing Management Section would not dare to cheat him, so he agreed: "Section Chief Zhang, no problem. It's not convenient for me to cook at home, so I won't take care of the meal. When will I pay you? And how long will the construction take?"

Zhang Limin said: "You just need to pay a deposit of 200 million yuan first, and the rest can be settled when the house is delivered, or it can be deducted from your salary. The main thing is that the radiator must be custom-made first, and I have ready-made blue bricks and tiles. The construction period is about one month."

"Okay." Yi Ping'an said, and took out an envelope from his trouser pocket, which was actually a space. It contained the 500 million that Yi Zhonghai gave him. He counted out 200 million and gave it to Zhang Liming.

Zhang Liming gave him a receipt and took out the house maintenance agreement and asked Yi Ping'an to sign it, and only then was the house matter completed.

Zhang Liming told him that they could start work today. Yi Ping'an left him the key to the corner door and left. He is very busy every day now.

When he returned to the workshop, the technicians and workers had all arrived and were reviewing what they had learned yesterday. Yi Ping'an did not waste any time and continued to work.

At lunch, the father and son ate together at an operating table, and Jia Dongxu was not there. Yi Zhonghai asked him quietly, "Ping An, are you done?" He was referring to the house. In the morning, when he arrived at the workshop and did not see Yi Ping An, he knew that he must have gone to the housing management department.

Yi Pingan nodded and whispered back, "It's all done. They'll start work today."

"Is the money enough?" Yi Zhonghai asked him.

Yi Ping'an was very moved after hearing this. Regardless of whether Yi Zhonghai was a good person or a bad person, as a father, he was very qualified. At least he was much better than Yi Ping'an's father in his previous life.

"That's enough. If it's not enough, I will ask you for it. You are my father, and I won't be polite to you." Yi Ping'an looked at Yi Zhonghai with a smile.

In addition to the 500 million yuan for the house, he now has 300 million yuan left in savings. He doesn't spend much money and he will receive his salary next month, so he doesn't plan to do anything else.

As for furniture, he has good materials in his space, so he can just find a carpenter. If he can't explain the source, he can just make it in his space.

Of course, he didn't want to use too fine materials, mahogany would be enough. In this era, every family has one or two pieces of mahogany furniture. Trust stores have second-hand ones, and they are not eye-catching, so that's good enough.

Yi Zhonghai also smiled: "You are my son, of course you don't have to be polite to me, what's mine is yours."

Yi Ping'an looked at his adopted father and felt that this life was not bad. Except that he was not as wealthy as in his previous life, everything else was good.

"Dad, can I ask you something?" Yi Ping'an remembered that his boiler had not been fixed yet.

"You said."

"Dad, I want to make a home boiler and use the steel from the factory. What is the process?" Yi Ping'an asked.

"Just go find Director Ma and ask him to write you a note. Go to the finance department to pay the money, or have the money deducted from your salary. You must keep the note, otherwise you won't be able to leave the factory." Yi Zhonghai told him the factory rules.

"Then I'll go find him after dinner." Yi Ping'an quickened his eating pace. He still had to draw the blueprints, so the sooner he finished, the more at ease he would be.

After the meal, Yi Zhonghai took the lunch box away to wash it, and Yi Ping'an was at the operating table, drawing the blueprint in just over ten minutes. All the data were clearly marked, which was used to calculate the price.

Then he went to find Ma Weiguo and told him about the household boiler. Ma Weiguo immediately became interested. He was the workshop director and a well-educated and far-sighted person. He felt that this could be a production project in the factory.

You have to know that nowadays, except in high-rise buildings, everyone has a stove, which is not only unsafe, but also dirty.

I remembered what Secretary Wei said this morning, that Yi Ping'an has agreed to stay and is just waiting to get his diploma so that he can transfer his relationship.

This made him feel a little regretful. He had not told Yi Zhonghai yet. Now he had lost the title of advanced. However, with his father Yi Zhonghai by his side, he would definitely get some benefits. Now it had come.

Ma Weiguo took Yi Ping'an away without saying a word and went straight to find Deputy Director Yang, who was his direct supervisor.

Then he reported the matter of the household boiler to Deputy Director Yang. Deputy Director Yang was not stupid. He needed political achievements more than Ma Weiguo, so he immediately took two people to find Secretary Chen.

Secretary Chen was delighted when he heard this. Talent is talent, and this brain is very useful. He said directly to Yi Ping'an: "Engineer Yi, look at this. You should make and install the boiler you designed first. After you install it, write a detailed data report.

After the factory committee approves it, it will be reported to the department as a new project of our factory. As for you, in addition to the rewards that the factory should have, this boiler will also be given to you as a reward. Is that okay with you?"

Is it okay? Of course it is okay! He doesn't have to spend any money to get a boiler. For Yi Pingan, it is like making money. What's more, there is a reward. This is great.

Without hesitation, I said, "Sure, no problem, you can arrange it."

After talking about the boiler, Ma Weiguo and Yi Ping'an returned to the workshop together.

On the way, Yi Ping'an asked Ma Weiguo to go to the materials department in the afternoon to pick up the steel for making the boiler. He planned to work on it with his father after get off work. There was no rush anyway. He could do a little bit every day after get off work and it would be done in no time.

This thing doesn't require any technical skills. With his father, a fitter, and himself, a technical expert, it's easy to handle.

Ma Weiguo agreed and asked to stay after get off work to work together. He was also a fitter and had no problem with the technical skills.

Yi Pingan thought it was good to have someone to help him, so he agreed without refusing. But for Ma Weiguo, it was an opportunity, so he became more enthusiastic about Yi Pingan.

This is his benefactor, Yi Zhonghai is his lucky star, and this father and son duo bring him good luck.

Another busy afternoon, it's time to get off work.

Yi Zhonghai asked Jia Dongxu to go back first and tell Yang Cuiyun that they would work overtime.

Yi Zhonghai and his son and Ma Weiguo were the only three people left in the entire workshop. They worked like tigers, processed some parts and put them in Ma Weiguo's small office. Then the three of them handed over their get off work to the security department and left.

Yi Zhonghai wanted to take Yi Ping'an with him on a bike, but Yi Ping'an saw that it was already dark and he was worried about Yi Zhonghai riding a bike. You know, many people in this era have night blindness, and sitting in a car is uncomfortable, so it is not as comfortable as riding a bike.

He asked to ride a bike with his father, and showed his strength to his father, saying that there was absolutely no problem in carrying his father.

Yi Zhonghai thought that his son had told him that he had practiced martial arts, so he compromised. His son was being filial to him, and he felt warm in his heart, so he just let him do what he wanted.

He would come back when his son couldn't ride anymore. If Yi Ping'an knew his father thought so, he would definitely tell him that there was no such thing as not being able to ride anymore.

The father and son rode their bikes, talking and laughing, back to the courtyard. Neither of them told anyone about what happened to Jia Dongxu in the morning. Yi Ping'an believed that his father could handle it, while Yi Zhonghai thought that it would be better not to involve his son in the affairs of the Jia family, as he was the father of everything.

Although the ideas were different, the results were surprisingly consistent.
