Chapter 741 Zheng Wei's Concerns

In the 1990s, some foreign ideas and concepts were introduced into China.

Through absorption, integration and localization, many new concepts have been derived.

Among them is the new concept of "trial marriage".

The so-called "trial marriage" means that a man and a woman start living together without getting a marriage certificate.

Men who are more particular will even hold a wedding.

Unrefined men will rent a house and use it as their bridal chamber.

The "trial marriages" in the 1980s and 1990s were regarded as "common-law marriages" by people at that time.

During the "trial marriage" period, if everyone gets along well, has a compatible personality, or the woman is pregnant, they will get married.

However, if the woman does not become pregnant during the "trial marriage" period, or if there are serious personality conflicts between the two parties, the "trial marriage" will be declared a failure.

In this case, the man will give the woman some 'youth loss compensation'.

The amount of this "youth loss fee" is not certain.

In most cases, payment is based on the local average annual income.

Situations where the money was given were several thousand, or even ten or twenty thousand.

However, people like Su Mingzhe who would use a house worth hundreds of thousands of dollars as "youth loss compensation" are extremely rare. It can even be said that they are very rare.

Faced with the man's "rich" behavior, Tan Xiaojing was somewhat shocked and moved.

Too much is given.

She felt she couldn't bear it.

After all, when the two were together, she was the active one.

In other words, Tan Xiaojing thinks that she is a bad woman who destroys other people's feelings and does not deserve such good treatment.

Tan Xiaojing, who had a strong sense of self-esteem, struggled for a few minutes and finally made a decision:

"Ayong, I can't accept this house, and you don't have to pay any 'youth loss compensation'. Although I can't be open and aboveboard with you, I don't regret it..."

Tan Xiaojing spoke out all her thoughts in one breath, and she felt a lot more relaxed immediately.

For everyone, a house worth hundreds of thousands of dollars is a great temptation.

Fortunately, she resisted the temptation.

Su Mingzhe looked at Tan Xiaojing with surprise. Her eyes were much brighter and clearer than before, and her originally soft and sweet face began to become firm at this moment.

After the woman finished speaking, Su Mingzhe's mouth twitched slightly, and his tone began to become indifferent:
"Jingjing, you have only known me for a short time, so you don't know my personality. I don't blame you. But I'm telling you once now, you can refuse the things I give to my woman just because you don't like them, but you can't refuse them just because you pay more or less. Remember what I said, if you are willing to obey me, we can continue. If you insist, then we can only break up..."

"This bastard!"

Tan Xiaojing never thought that one day she would be forced to accept a house as a gift.

For a moment, she felt so wronged.

Clearly, she just wanted to enjoy the warmth of a man, but now she has to become a mistress for no apparent reason.

She felt that her personality and dignity were being pressed to the ground, rubbed and trampled on by the man.

Su Mingzhe saw that Tan Xiaojing was still trying to be shy, and his face showed impatience:
"Jingjing, are you going to listen to me or not? If you don't want this house, it won't matter once we leave this door!"

"I... want it, is that not okay?"

Tan Xiaojing felt so aggrieved that tears fell down her face, and her voice was as low as a mosquito.

If men did not have sharp hearing, they would not be able to hear what women are saying.

"Don't say any nonsense in front of me anymore, understand?"

Su Mingzhe felt that he had successfully PUA'd the woman in front of him, and he couldn't help feeling proud. He immediately took her hand and comforted her softly:

"Jingjing, I know what you're thinking, but you have to consider my feelings too. I'm a man, you've given me your body, I can't be an irresponsible scumbag, take everything and walk away, can I?"

When Tan Xiaojing heard the man's vulgar words, she couldn't help but pursed her lips and glanced at him.

It was clearly her who took the initiative, but now the man is taking the responsibility on himself.

This made her feel ashamed.

"Okay, let's get the house done quickly. This will be our home for the four years of college."

Su Mingzhe gave Tan Xiaojing a sweet reward with a few sweet words, which made her forget the trampling on her character just now.

There is definitely a long way to go to train Tan Xiaojing.

Anyway, there are still four years left, so Su Mingzhe is not in a hurry.

By the afternoon.

In the Shanghai Machinery Factory, after more than a month of hard research, a new CNC machine tool was finally successfully developed.

A dozen experts and professors were so happy that they decided to work overtime for two more hours tonight to test the functions of the machine tool.

Faced with a group of excited old men, the clone could only keep them busy until midnight and early morning before he was relieved.

It was the next day in a blink of an eye.

Su Mingzhe was having breakfast with Zhuo Xinyao when the chief engineer of the machinery factory called and reported anxiously:

"Boss, the new machine tool we got yesterday was taken away by the machine factory overnight!"

"These old guys are really quick!"

Su Mingzhe was surprised at first, then his expression turned ugly:
"He was taken away overnight, why did you report it only now?"

"I just found out too."

The chief engineer felt very aggrieved: "Now the security guards, workers, and even warehouse managers of our machinery factory are all from the machinery factory. We can't stop them from doing anything."

"Forget it... I know about this. Just tolerate them for another half a year." Su Mingzhe could understand the Shangji Factory's approach.

In several other planes of life, when he founded the Ark New Energy Factory, the same thing happened. From security to warehouse management and finance, everything was controlled by people from state-owned enterprises.

He, the big boss, is only the boss in name only.

Now it was the machine factory that acted quickly and took the machine tool away first.

However, even if the machine factory does not take action, other machine factories in other places will definitely send vehicles over overnight after receiving the news.

Su Mingzhe thought for a few seconds and then issued an order:
"We can assemble three more sets out of the parts from our car. Just keep one for ourselves and sell the remaining two to someone with a higher price."

"Okay, boss."

The chief engineer was relieved to see that the boss was not angry.

The CNC machine tools worth millions were quietly taken away by the people in the machine factory.

This matter can really be a big deal or a small one.

Anyway, as the chief engineer, he cannot bear this responsibility.

"Also, I won't be going to the machinery factory these days. I've been busy for over a month, so I need to take a break and wait until New Year's Day is over before going there again. You guys have all worked hard, so take turns taking a few days off."

Su Mingzhe gave some instructions and then hung up the phone.

"Mingzhe, the equipment in the machinery factory was taken away? Is that okay?"

Zhuo Xinyao had been listening to the man talking on the phone, and at this moment, she became a little worried.

But she knew that the man's two factories had been investing money but had not brought in any profit.

Now that the things have been taken away by force, how can I make money?

"Then...will they pay for the goods?"

"Don't worry, they won't dare not pay."

Su Mingzhe's tone seemed particularly calm and confident: "If the machine factory dares to default on its debt, they won't be able to even think about the remaining machine tools. So, they must not only pay, but also give me a price that satisfies me..."

"That's good."

Zhuo Xinyao knew that the man had strong capital, but she couldn't help but worry about his funding chain.

After all, the man has spent several million on buying cars and houses in recent times, and he really spends money like water.

If you spend money this way, even if you have mountains of gold and silver at home, they won’t be able to keep them.

After dinner, they drove back to school.

Today is Monday.

Zheng Wei arrived at the classroom and was overjoyed to see her boyfriend actually coming to class. She quickly ran to her boyfriend and said coquettishly, "You didn't come to see me on the weekends, why did you think of coming to class today?"

"Didn't I promise to spend New Year's Day with you? I've been working overtime these past few days and finished my work ahead of time..."

Su Mingzhe put his arm around Zheng Wei's waist and squeezed her little hand.

Zheng Wei's little hands are well protected. Her ten fingers are not stained by water. They are white and tender, truly green jade fingers.

"Has the machine tool been built yet?"

Zheng Wei also talked to the man about the machinery factory and knew some of the progress.

"The first set of milling machines has been assembled. We tested it last night and found that its accuracy is almost the same as those of the United States, Germany and Japan."

There are many types of milling machines, and what I made last night was just one of them.

Su Mingzhe told his girlfriend about it, and then he also told her about how the factory had violated the rules of martial law and had taken away the machine tool that had just been tested overnight:
"This is so rude. They took it away overnight without even telling you, their boss."

Zheng Wei raised her little fist and waved it, wanting to stand up for her boyfriend.

"Please be considerate of them. For so many years, the production and manufacturing of many equipment have been inferior to those of foreign countries in terms of mother machines. The pressure on them is too great. Now that there is an opportunity to surpass, they don't care about whether it's polite or not."

Su Mingzhe understands the thoughts of these older generations.

After the morning classes ended, the two did not go to the cafeteria to eat with Ruan Guan, but went straight back to the villa to communicate with each other.

After a vigorous exercise, the two hugged each other and enjoyed a moment of quiet time.

Suddenly, Su Mingzhe felt water droplets sliding on his chest. He reached out to wipe them away and discovered that Zheng Wei had been crying without him noticing.

"Weiwei, why are you crying?"

"It's okay, I just miss you."

Zheng Wei's words were incoherent, which made Su Mingzhe feel a little funny:
"It's just a few days since we last met..."

"Not even for a day."

Zheng Wei's eyes fluttered. She put her hands on the man's chest to prop herself up, so that she and the man looked at each other, and said in a serious tone:

"Hubby, let's never be apart, not even for a day, okay?"

"it is good!"

In this atmosphere, Su Mingzhe could only wipe away the tears from his girlfriend's face with heartache.

He knew that the reason why Zheng Wei was so excited was because she was heartbroken by the sudden departure of her childhood sweetheart Lin Jing.

In the past few days, I haven't gone to see her because my clone is busy with the machinery factory. This not only makes her feel fear and worry about her boyfriend leaving.

At this time, Su Mingzhe could only try his best to comfort her and let her know how much he loved her.

Zheng Wei continued to ask relentlessly:
"Then you promise, promise to never leave me."

Su Mingzhe raised his right hand and swore:
"I promise, I promise Zheng Wei that I won't leave her for even a day!"
