Chapter 72: Unexpected Help
After a brief greeting, Shen Lin sat down and chatted with Zhong Tianyang. While the two were talking, Zhong Qing came out holding Xiaodong.
"Xiaodong, do you recognize this uncle?" Zhong Qing pointed at Shen Lin and said with a chuckle.
Young children's memories are generally very weak, but this time, when Zhong Qing pointed at Shen Lin, Xiaodong excitedly stretched out his hand towards Shen Lin, and his look seemed extremely friendly.
"uncle……"
Hearing the childish voice, Shen Lin couldn't help but stretch out his hands towards Xiaodong. After a slight hesitation, Zhong Qing let Xiaodong fall into Shen Lin's arms.
"You seem to have gained a little weight." Before Shen Lin could finish his words, the chubby Xiaodong had already stretched out his mouth and kissed Shen Lin on the face.
When faced with a baby's approach, Shen Lin hesitated for a moment and let the child kiss him all over the face.
Lu Xiaorong hadn't said much the whole time. She was actually a little nervous following behind Shen Lin, but now looking at Shen Lin, she couldn't help but smile.
If Shen Lin is so close to another person's child, he will probably be even more doting on his own child.
"Shen Lin, wipe it quickly. It seems that this kid really likes you, otherwise he wouldn't kiss you with saliva all over your face." Zhong Tianyang smiled and handed Shen Lin a piece of toilet paper.
Shen Lin didn't hesitate to wipe his face, and then said, "Xiaodong still remembers me after such a long time , he will definitely be great in the future."
After the two of them talked for a few words about the child, Zhong Tianyang felt like he had no topics to talk about. He spent most of his time on work, so when he spoke and did things, he talked more about work.
When there was no topic, he started looking for one.
"Shen Lin, Zhong Qing has been asking me to treat you to a meal, but I never had the time. My main focus has been on the site selection for the second smelting workshop. The location of the second smelting workshop has been debated in the factory for several months."
Zhong Tianyang said this just to find a topic, but when Shen Lin heard it, it made his heart move.
The second smelting workshop!
He suddenly remembered a piece of news he had seen in his previous life, a news about the relocation of the second workshop.
According to the news report, it seems that there were significant flaws in the location of the second workshop, so that after it was built, the second workshop was not used for long before a series of problems such as blast furnace tilting occurred.
He always thought that the second workshop had been under construction for quite some time, but he didn't expect that the construction of the second workshop had just started.
As thoughts flashed through his mind, Shen Lin decided to tell Zhong Tianyang about this situation. After all, this would not only help Zhong Tianyang, but also help recover the losses caused by the relocation of the second workshop.
But just as he was about to speak, he suddenly thought of his academic qualifications, and immediately changed what he was about to say to: "I heard from my father that the second workshop is the top priority of our main factory. I wonder where we should move it to?"
"There are two places in total. One is the east slope of Xiyun Mountain, and the other is a vacant lot behind the main factory."
Zhong Tianyang did not hide it. After all, it was not a secret. He picked up a cigarette and wanted to light it, but when he looked at the child next to Shen Lin, he put the cigarette down again.
"But after these days of debate, it has basically been determined that it is the vacant land behind the main factory."
"After all, no matter from the geographical location or production needs, it is extremely suitable for building the second workshop."
Shen Lin pretended to be thoughtful and said, "I heard from my father that there seems to be some problem with the geology of the land behind the main factory."
"By the way, it seems that the geology there is a bit loose. If we choose that place, will it cause the blast furnace to tilt?"
Shen Lin's words made Zhong Tianyang stunned for a moment.
What he compared these days was mainly the transportation and cost of the two sites, and he didn't care about the geological issues.
After all, when their factory area was being built, they had someone survey it and said that the place was suitable for the construction of the main factory.
Shen Lin's question at this time not only surprised him, but also shocked him.
He looked at Shen Lin in a daze and asked, "Did your father really say that?"
"Yes, my father used to work in our main factory." Shen Lin smiled and said, "I don't know if what he said is right."
Zhong Tianyang suddenly became restless. He pondered for a moment and said, "What you said is a problem. I will find someone to survey it tomorrow."
Having said that, he picked up the phone and dialed.
"Xiao Wang? I'm Zhong Tianyang. Please contact a specialized geological survey agency to conduct a survey on the site of our second workshop."
After hanging up the phone, Zhong Tianyang took a breath. As a technical person, he knew very well what kind of scenario would arise if the problem Shen Lin mentioned really occurred.
That would be a catastrophic disaster for him.
"Shen Lin, what is your father doing now?" Zhong Tianyang took a breath and asked Shen Lin with concern.
After all, this matter was said by Shen Lin through his father, so he had to pay attention to Shen Lin's father.
Shen Lin smiled and said, "My father used to be the director of the hardware machinery factory under our main factory. Some time ago, due to health reasons, he has now retired to the second line."
Zhong Tianyang heard Shen Lin say this and felt that Shen Lin's words were more likely to be reliable. He smiled and said, "An old man in the family is like a treasure. If things are really as your father said, then he has saved a lot of losses for our factory."
While the two were talking, Zhong Qing had already invited them to eat.
The food was very rich, and the cooking skills of the cook were also very good. Zhong Tianyang, who was increasingly impressed by Shen Lin, took out a bottle of wine from his own cupboard.
"Shen Lin, this wine was given to me by my teacher when I graduated. I have been drinking it slowly over the years, but there is only one bottle left."
"Come on, let's kill it."
Looking at the wine bottle that Zhong Tianyang took out, Shen Lin couldn't help but smacking his lips. Looking at this wine bottle, it would be worth a fortune in a few decades.
It would be a shame to drink it now.
"Brother Zhong, I think we should..."
Before Shen Lin finished speaking, Zhong Tianyang unscrewed the bottle of wine. Looking at the opened bottle cap, Shen Lin felt a little regretful that he didn't have a mobile phone now.
If you have one, take a photo. You can definitely use it to worship it in the future.
The meal lasted more than an hour. After both of them were a little drunk, Zhong Tianyang smiled and said to Shen Lin: "Shen Lin, if you encounter any difficulties, just tell me and I will give you some advice."
