Su Yuzhou went to the technical school the next day to ask. As a result, the teacher in the welding class said that Li Wenjun must be made of stainless steel. If cold-dip galvanized steel is used, the hot water will rust and holes will appear in less than two days. And it will come out.
The water will be full of rust and very dirty.
The welding of stainless steel plates is not something ordinary welders can do.
Su Yuzhou thought for a moment, and since only the welding team in the maintenance shop could do it, let them do it. Li Wenjun also asked them to do it. It was better for him to go directly to the welding team than let Li Wenjun exploit him again.
Then Su Yuzhou went to find the welding team again.
When Zhao Xueliang heard this, he immediately said: "We can do it, and it doesn't cost that much. We can do it for you for five yuan. Just prepare the materials yourself."
Su Universe said: "What materials do you need?"
Zhao Xueliang said: "I only need stainless steel plates here. For other things, you can buy whatever you need."
In fact, when he watched Li Wenjun finish it, he knew very well that he still needed shower heads, faucets, valves, and hired a plasterer to buy cement and red bricks himself. But he was afraid that what he said would scare Su Universe away.
After finally getting the chance to make this money without Li Wenjun, he must win this first order.
There are thousands of households in the entire mining area. If each household makes one, he can open a factory himself.
Li Wenjun thought of this when he asked them to weld for air tightness testing.
That's why when Li Wenjun's house installed the hot water stove that day, he went there in person and watched Li Wenjun finish the whole process to make sure he didn't miss anything.
When the mining area was built, the kitchens of all row houses were built according to a standard, so the stoves in all the houses in the mining area were the same size.
All he had to do was copy Li Wenjun's design drawings and simply enjoy the results. The opportunity came too easily.
When Su Universe heard that it was so simple, he immediately said: "Okay, I'll go to the mine to buy stainless steel plates."
------
Five or six out of ten workers in the mining area have attended technical schools, so they quite respect the teachers in the technical schools.
Su Yuzhou went to the supply and marketing department of the agency and planned to ask how to sell stainless steel plates.
The section chief of the supply and marketing department shook his head immediately when he heard about the stainless steel plate: "We don't have that thin one. Only Li Wenjun has it. He went to the city steel plant to purchase it himself."
Su Universe frowned: "Then can you apply to the mine to purchase a batch?"
The section chief shook his head: "We can't use those specifications for production."
The meaning is obvious: you have to figure out what you need at home. Don’t bother the mining area.
Su Universe was disappointed and could only come back dejectedly.
-----
During dinner, Uncle Su asked Su Yuyu: "How is it?"
Su Universe shook his head: "Only Li Wenjun has thin stainless steel plates, so we really have to ask him to make them."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Cao immediately said: "No wonder, that's why he dared to bid so randomly."
Su Universe said: "There is nothing we can do."
-----
The more Aunt Cao thought about it, the angrier she became. When she was shopping for groceries, she met Aunt Cen, who was doing handicrafts with her.
Aunt Cen asked Aunt Cao: "Hey, I heard that Liu Cuihong made a hot water heater at home, which is quite useful. Do you think we can go to the military commander to help make one?"
Aunt Cao said coldly: "Don't waste your efforts. I went to ask Liu Cuihong, and Liu Cuihong said that the army commander wanted twenty yuan to make a set."
Aunt Cao sneered: "No, they said it was the cost price, the friendship price. If someone else asked him to do it, he wouldn't be able to do it at this price."
Aunt Cen frowned: "This Li Wenjun, do you think that no one can do it except him? Although he is also very capable, he is too arrogant and goes too far."
Aunt Cao took the opportunity to fan the flames: "No, they have money now, how can they still care about us?"
Aunt Cen's lover, Master Zhou, is the master of Zhao Xueliang, the leader of the welding team. Aunt Cao is eager to make Aunt Cen angry, and then Aunt Cen will think of a way, so that she can follow suit.
Sure enough, after Aunt Cen returned, she angrily said to Master Zhou: "I want to make a hot water stove."
Master Zhou was shocked when he heard it: "It's so expensive."
Aunt Cen said: "People say the cost is twenty yuan."
Master Zhou frowned; "Why don't we just have so many stainless steel plates welded together?"
Aunt Cen said: "I said the same thing. It's obviously Li Wenjun who ripped it off. So you go to your apprentice Zhao Xueliang and ask him to help weld one. We don't want him to do it in vain, we just give him wages."
Master Zhou nodded: "Okay, my apprentice should still be able to help me with this."
------
Master Zhou estimated that Zhao Xueliang was at work, so he went to the welding team to find Zhao Xueliang.
When Zhao Xueliang saw the master coming, he hurriedly brought him to the office to make tea for him.
Master Zhou chatted for a while and then said: "I heard that you helped Li Wenjun build a hot water stove for his house?"
Zhao Xueliang said: "Yes."
Master Zhou said: "Your wife is getting older, and it's winter again. The water here is too cold. I discussed with your wife how to make one, so I came to you. Please calculate how much it will cost."
Zhao Xueliang said: "Oh, the master has to do it. I will definitely help you do it, but I don't have the raw materials. The stainless steel plates are all at Li Wenjun's place, and I can't get them."
Master Zhou said: "Who is in charge of this?"
Zhao Xueliang said: "Before, the fitter team was responsible for picking up materials and cutting, and we were only responsible for welding, so we couldn't get the raw materials. And even if there were raw materials, their fitter team had to help cut them before we could weld them." Su Universe said before.
He went to look for stainless steel plates, but he didn’t say anything about it. It must have failed. Zhao Xueliang was still thinking that after all, Su Universe was young and had little energy. As a result, he couldn’t make any money even if he wanted to. Now that Master Zhou has come to talk, he can’t wait to do it.
Master Zhou went to Li Wenjun and others and forced Li Wenjun to bring out stainless steel plates.
Master Zhou nodded: "That's easy to handle. I'll go find Qian Duofu, the fitter team. I don't believe Qian Duofu won't give me this face."
------
Master Zhou went to the fitter group next door with his hands behind his back.
Qian Duofu happened to be explaining the key points of rolling thin-walled stainless steel pipes to those apprentices. When he saw Master Zhou coming, he hurriedly said hello: "Hey? Master Zhou, why are you free to come to my place today?"
Master Zhou said: "I'm here to ask for your help."
Qian Duofu said: "Master Zhou is really polite. Just tell me what you want me to do."
Master Zhou: "I want you to help me get some stainless steel plates. I want to make a hot water stove."
Qian Duofu said: "Ah, this, then I have to ask Commander Jun. The stainless steel plates are the raw materials of the electronics factory. Commander Jun also spent money to buy them from the city's steel factory."
