Chapter 43: Gifting the Country

Shen Sangyu kept thinking about it until the next morning, but she still couldn’t figure it out.

She had to go to the steel plant today, so she got up early.

Wen Qingchuan cooked noodles in the morning, and there was a crispy fried egg in Shen Sangyu’s bowl.

Shen Sangyu pursed her lips, and the big stone that was originally pressing on her heart suddenly fell away for some reason.

She didn’t know how to tell Wen Qingchuan, and she didn’t know if he could accept the truth of time travel and rebirth.

If one day she really couldn’t hide it, she would just tell him everything.

At most, she would be regarded as a psychopath.

Shen Sangyu thought, opened her mouth, and bit off half of the fried egg.

Wen Qingchuan observed silently, and seeing that Shen Sangyu was not affected by yesterday’s events, he felt relieved.

After dinner, he sent Shen Sangyu to the car, and then he went to the training ground.

There were still three days until New Year’s Eve, and there were many more people on the bus than usual.

Shen Sangyu felt a little carsick after getting off, and she took a long time to relax on the side of the road before walking to the steel plant.

The security guards at the steel plant had known Shen Sangyu for a long time and let her in directly without registration.

Shen Sangyu made her way to the agreed office area. As soon as she got downstairs, Xu Weiguo came out to meet her.

“Sangyu, you are finally here. I was just about to look for you.”

Shen Sangyu apologized, “There were so many people on the bus today, and I felt carsick.”

Xu Weiguo asked with concern, “Are you feeling better now? I just don’t have anything to do today. I’ll take you home then.”

Shen Sangyu shook her head, “I have something else to do in the afternoon. I won’t keep you.”

Seeing this, Xu Weiguo had to give up.

He led Shen Sangyu to the office. Before she entered, she noticed four armed guards standing outside.

Walking into the spacious office, Shen Sangyu recognized Gu Linzhang at a glance.

Gu Linzhang was already in his seventies when he was innocently killed in her previous life.

Now he looked younger, with a few fine lines at the corners of his eyes. He was wearing a black Mao suit, and the white hair on his temples could not be suppressed.

As Shen Sangyu was looking at Gu Linzhang, he was also observing her carefully.

Gu Linzhang stood up and introduced himself to Shen Sangyu. Even though he appeared calm, he secretly gave her a few more points in his heart.

It was impossible that Xu Weiguo had not told him about her identity, but he was impressed by how calm Shen Sangyu was, showing no signs of cowardice.

If Shen Sangyu knew what Xu Weiguo was thinking, she would definitely laugh and cry.

Although she was not very old when she died suddenly in her previous life, she had done research with her teacher and met big figures from various industries at seminars.

After seeing so many people, she had naturally become calm.

Shen Sangyu did not waste time. After exchanging pleasantries, she took out the drawings.

When Gu Linzhang saw the thick stack of design drawings, his eyes changed, and he couldn’t wait to take a look.

Shen Sangyu’s design drawings were very detailed. In her previous life, she used computers to draw most of the time, so she was afraid the other party might not understand it.

But Gu Linzhang didn’t say a word for half an hour, and his eyes grew wider with surprise as he continued to examine the drawings.

“Comrade Sangyu, these… are all drawn by yourself?”

Gu Linzhang’s tone was full of uncontrollable excitement.

It was not his fault; Shen Sangyu’s drawings surprised him. At first, he thought she could only provide a rough design draft.

However, when he looked closely, he found that her drawings were so detailed that even the mechanical devices were clearly represented, complete with many professional terms.

At the end of the drawings, Shen Sangyu also wrote a simple report, one of which piqued Gu Linzhang’s interest.

The dust removal device of the steel plant was very poor, but Shen Sangyu claimed that this new equipment could remove dust three times more effectively, greatly reducing harm to human health.

“All the information here is compiled by me, but I have never put it into practice,” Shen Sangyu said honestly.

Although she knew the equipment would definitely succeed, as a scientific researcher, she would never make a positive claim before the experiment was successful.

Gu Linzhang waved his hand indifferently: “It’s okay; there will be a special team to conduct experiments at that time.”

Gu Linzhang then suddenly noticed the last line of Shen Sangyu’s report, and his pupils shrank: “Wait!”

Gu Linzhang’s voice suddenly trembled: “In the end, you said that the cost would be reduced by five times compared to the 49th Steel Plant, but the function would be improved by more than three times?”

The steel plant had spent a total of 350,000 yuan to ship this set of equipment back from overseas, and the whole set of machines cost 300,000 yuan, while the latest steelmaking machines in the United States now cost 100,000 US dollars!

But it was obvious that the design drawings given by Shen Sangyu were more advanced than those of the old Americans, and the cost was much lower, excluding the research costs.

Gu Linzhang’s heart was about to jump out of his chest with excitement. He looked at Shen Sangyu as if he were looking at a treasure: “You have the talent for scientific research! Why do you want to be a translator?”

Shen Sangyu thought to herself that she originally had no talent, but she had it after coming here.

“I just graduated from high school this year.”

Gu Linzhang: “You…”

Shen Sangyu hurriedly added: “Now that the college entrance examination has been resumed, I will go to college and then do scientific research projects.”

Gu Linzhang knew that Shen Sangyu was young, but he didn’t expect her to be that young.

He didn’t expect that someone could draw such a great blueprint at such a young age, and many of the concepts on it were even unheard of by him.

But this blueprint was indeed from a student who had just graduated for half a year.

Hearing that Shen Sangyu did not plan to continue as a translator, Gu Linzhang felt slightly relieved.

He was afraid that such a good talent would be let go by him.

“It would be better to go to college, learn knowledge from the teacher, and then you can study more things.”

After Gu Linzhang finished speaking, he changed the subject: “Sangyu, tell me the key points of these three dust removal methods…”

Shen Sangyu: …

Gu Linzhang was truly eager to learn, and he had taken learning to the extreme.

He didn’t even ask a student how she could design such a design drawing; he was more concerned about the key points of the three dust removal methods.

Shen Sangyu took a deep breath, knowing that she wouldn’t be able to leave until she explained it clearly today, so she began to explain in detail:

“The current steelmaking equipment only filters dust once, but if the dust is removed in batches, multi-filtration technology can be used to filter smoke and harmful substances…”

Once in the working state, no matter how tired Shen Sangyu felt, she would always treat it with the most enthusiastic and full state.

Even now, she found herself explaining this drawing she regarded as child’s play in detail.

Xu Weiguo added water to the two of them several times in the middle and only ended the explanation when Shen Sangyu drank the second glass of water.

Gu Linzhang benefitted greatly. At this moment, he realized the weight of this stack of drawings.

If the research and development were successful, the domestic steel forging technology would likely advance by leaps and bounds, and there would even be a large number of orders.

Thinking of this, Gu Linzhang said excitedly: “Comrade Sangyu, I will take this blueprint back first, and then…”

“Secretary Gu, I want to donate the blueprint to the country.”
