The Legendary Mechanic

Chapter 42: 042 Coveted by the R&D department

After the first action, the next period should be very leisurely.

Han Xiao returned to the repair shop, considering the issue of opening up sales.

The folding knives seemed to have a great market. Han Xiao wanted more agents of the Thirteenth Bureau to know about him as a mechanic. After thinking for a while, he called Li Yalin and asked her to help spread the news in the bureau. , Han Xiao used the condition of giving her a 20% discount in the future, and successfully fooled Li Yalin to help him with Amway, uh, promotion.

But there is a problem, Han Xiao manufactures machinery in the repair shop, but the repair shop has limited lathes and equipment, and with Lu Qian watching, Han Xiao is not convenient for batch production, after thinking about it, he is going to "showdown" with Lu Qian .

"Sister Qian, I have something to look for you."

Lu Qian shuddered and lamented to herself, this day has finally come, and I'm already mentally prepared!

"I want to tell you something, I actually..."

Lu Qian turned around suddenly, with a resolute expression on her face, bowed deeply, and stammered, "Yes, I'm sorry, you are a good person."

The atmosphere is awkward.

The two stared at each other.

Han Xiao’s eyes twitched, although he didn’t want to chase you, but you refused in such a hurry, why am I so upset.

"...You misunderstood. I will remodel the repair shop and build a new independent room next to it. I will work in it in the future. My friend will pay for the renovation, which is equivalent to expanding the repair shop in disguise. What do you think?"

Was it a misunderstanding? Lu Qian's body swayed, her heart almost exploded with embarrassment, she forced her composure and said, "Well, good, very good, I agree."

After saying that, he covered his face and turned around and ran away.

Woohoo, so embarrassing!

Han Xiao looked helpless, he suspected that Lu Qian didn't hear what he said at all.

Han Xiao submitted the application for the construction of the studio to Feng Jun, who transferred it to the top management.

The Thirteenth Bureau attached great importance to him. This reasonable request was quickly approved, and the construction team of the Engineering Department came to the repair shop to expand.

Two days later, a new mechanical workshop was built next to the repair shop, and the 13th Bureau sponsored the basic equipment, which was counted as a loan to Han Xiao. At the request of Han Xiao, the mechanical studio has a basement for secret research and serves as a warehouse.

Li Yalin's promotion was very effective. Within a few days, many agents asked to order folding swords. Han Xiao did not meet the guests in person, and asked Li Yalin to help him transfer the order.

Although the clients are all agents of the Thirteenth Bureau, Han Xiao is still very cautious.

Batches of alloy materials were sent to Han Xiao's studio. In a few days, he built dozens of folding war knives, all of which were sold. The experience gained a lot. Han Xiao upgraded [Elementary Mechanical Affinity] to the full level. Get some potential points again.

The agents were well-informed, and after Li Yalin's promotion, they all knew that Li Yalin's team had recruited a mechanic named Han Xiao to provide private ordering of machinery and maintenance.

The orders came like snowflakes, and Han Xiao was too busy. The daily production capacity was around dozens of knives. The experience of a day was very considerable. More experience was gradually accumulated on the panel, and his personal wallet was gradually enriched.

In the previous life, selling machinery was the way of growth for mechanical players, and the market competition was huge, but now Han Xiao is almost monopolizing the market. He is the only one who wants to buy a folding sword. Monopoly can generate huge profits, allowing him to directly earn the first pot of gold.

Han Xiao only intends to sell two kinds of machines, high-flammability ammunition and folding war knives. Due to favoritism, Han Xiao sold Li Yalin a light power arm.

The sales of folding knives are good, but Han Xiao is not optimistic. Although folding knives are popular in a short period of time, most people just buy them for early adopters, their uses are limited, and their customer potential is limited. And the technical content of the folding sword is too simple. A skilled mechanic can deduce the blueprint with a little fiddling. Even if the confidentiality measures are not good, it is estimated that it will not take long for a copycat product to appear.

Han Xiao only intends to use the folding sword to make a quick buck. In contrast, he pays more attention to the prospect of [high-burning ammunition]. This thing is easy to use and inexpensive, and it is a consumable, which can cultivate a stable source of customers.

High-flammability bullets naturally have a high degree of confidentiality. The core is the flammable gas in the warhead. Once the warhead is disassembled, it will leak and burn, and it cannot be stored stably. It is difficult to do with the current level of technology.

Han Xiao is ready to accumulate a certain amount of inventory and then look for opportunities to launch high-flammability bullets. He used the money earned from the folding sword to buy a lot of bullet materials, and took the time to manufacture them every day. Boxes of high-flammability bullets gradually accumulated in the underground warehouse.

On this day, Old Man Lu and Old Man Gao competed at the door of the repair shop again. Han Xiao had just completed a batch of orders. Seeing this, he came to Old Man Gao and said with a smile, "Is the prosthesis still comfortable?"

"Not bad." Old Man Gao smiled and rolled up his sleeves. At this time, he was wearing a prosthetic limb, which had been covered with a layer of artificial silicone skin, which was almost fake.

"Just like it, if something goes wrong, feel free to ask me to fix it for you."

Old Man Gao nodded and said with a half-smile, "I heard from Old Lu, you joined the thirteenth round?"

"There is such a thing."

"You are young and promising, work hard and contribute to the country." Old Man Gao encouraged him.

Han Xiao laughed secretly, Old Man Gao always thought he didn't know his identity.

The identity of working for the Thirteenth Bureau does not need to be hidden. Although ordinary civilians of Star Dragon cannot reach this level in their daily life, it does not prevent them from knowing the existence of the Thirteenth Bureau, and considers it a promising job.

Han Xiao responded with a few words, secretly guessing when Old Man Gao would showdown with him, should he give Old Man Gao some face and show some consternation

At this time, Feng Jun walked over quickly, with a serious face, and said to Han Xiao: "Take a step to speak."

As Han Xiao's contact person, Feng Jun has been leading a team, constantly monitoring the environment around the repair shop, guarding against suspicious personnel, worried that the Germination Organization will find Han Xiao.

Old Man Gao knew Feng Jun naturally, and couldn't help but wonder what happened when Feng Jun came to Han Xiao in person

Han Xiao followed Feng Jun to the side, and Feng Jun said, "The R&D department is watching you!"

Han Xiao narrowed his eyes, "Tell me carefully."

"The R&D department's authority is to develop various new weapons, and it has the power to conduct risk checks on the new weapons used by the agents. They believe that the folding war knife has a risk problem and ask you to hand in the drawings of the folding war knife and let them check for errors. This is research and development. The authority of the Ministry, and other departments cannot intervene.”

It turned out to be eyeing my drawings!

Check the risk? Just an excuse.

Han Xiao snorted coldly, as long as he submits the blueprint for "checking", tomorrow the R&D department will be able to produce folding war knives and turn his blueprint into their performance.

Han Xiao learned about the internal situation of the Thirteenth Bureau through Feng Jun. The R&D Department, like the Ministry of Internal Affairs, is a hard-line faction and is very unfriendly to him.

The R&D department has serious bureaucratic habits. There have been no new inventions and equipment for many years, and the annual funding is getting smaller and smaller. In the eyes of the agents, its status is not even comparable to that of the logistics department. Folding sword.

As long as the drawings are in hand, the R&D department only needs to write a report to the top management, and they can "turn" them into their inventions and achievements.

"What if I don't meet?"

Feng Jun smiled wryly and said, "You will be blacklisted by the R&D department and recorded on your resume, which will affect your promotion, but you are different from ordinary agents. The bureau values the information you have, so there shouldn't be a big problem. The R&D department can't. force you."

"That's good, I won't hand over the blueprint." Han Xiao shook his head.

Although the market for the folding sword will be saturated in the future, it can still bring benefits to himself, and Han Xiao will not hand it over to others.

Feng Jun was not surprised by this. During this period of time, he had a simple understanding of Han Xiao's temperament, and he belonged to the type who did not eat hard or soft.

Old Man Gao made a phone call, and his face sank after he understood the whole story.

"This group of bastards who eat vegetarian meals are more than successful!"

Old Man Gao attaches great importance to Han Xiao. Under his operation, the Thirteenth Bureau and Han Xiao have a good cooperative relationship. However, for their own performance, the R&D Department acted without regard to the overall situation, bullying Han Xiao and wanting to Stealing his blueprints is simply a robbery act. The most important thing is that it may cause Han Xiao’s disgust and make his painstaking efforts in vain.

The old man was furious at this.

"How dare you!"
