In the early 1980s, there were not a few technicians like Dong Yan who used their spare time to provide services to other units, especially to some township and individual enterprises. These people had a name called "Sunday Engineer".

In this era, talents with some skills were concentrated in state-owned scientific research institutes and industrial and mining enterprises. It was impossible for township enterprises and private enterprises to have such talents. Township enterprises and private enterprises need technology and can also provide considerable salaries to hire technicians. However, the technicians in many state-owned units are not well-fed, have time, and have the desire to go to township enterprises to do some private work and earn some extra money.

It is not a secret in state-owned units to make extra money by using their spare time. When Feng Xiaochen first arrived at the Metallurgical Bureau, he also met cadres like Wang Weilong and Cheng Xiaofeng and others who made money by translating foreign documents for magazines. This kind of thing belongs to the people and officials, and the leaders of any unit will not meddle in other people's business.

Dong Yan had also been invited by some township enterprises to help some small favors and earn some money. This time, he helped Ruan Phucen with this mentality. Who would have thought that Ruan Phucen was so happy to give money that in just a few months, Dong Yan actually earned more than a year of salary, which made him feel a little proud.

As the saying goes, money is the courage of the poor. Because it is easy to make money, Dong Yan's family's expenses have increased. Dong Yan's wife used these extra money to buy several beautiful clothes she had always wanted to buy, which was quite silly in the factory. Dong Yan's son and daughter also owned bicycles, footballs, and travel shoes, respectively. Even Dong Yan himself bought a new watch, which was brightly worn on his hands, and he took out a pack of Chinese cigarettes to share with his colleagues, saying that it was given by his friends who made a fortune.

Everyone is pointing at a few wages when they live, it would be strange if your family is so showy and not jealous. Although everyone has a time to go out to make extra money, they can make more than ten yuan a month, and you can make thousands a month, in the words of the newspaper, this is called "Uncle is tolerant, but Aunt is tolerant."

Soon someone exposed this incident to the factory director Ma Weixiang. When Ma Weixiang heard about this, he was quite dissatisfied with it. He smiled and scolded the reporter for being erythem, saying that anyone with the ability would make money. As long as it was not a corner of the factory, it would not affect the work, and the factory would not interfere. But when he heard that Dong Yan made this money because of working for Ruan Phuc, Ma Weixiang's face suddenly changed.

Ruan Phucen's affairs were a slap to Ma Weixiang. It not only slapped him in the face, but also hurt him in his heart. Due to the Ruan Phucen incident, the heads of the state-owned large factories were ruined and did not dare to compete with Luo Xiangfei anymore, and were forced to sign the Underworld Alliance. At present, the task subcontracted to Haihua has begun to produce, and the progress is still smooth, but Ma Weixiang always felt a thorn in his heart. He felt that the task he received was a bit frustrated, and he was worried that if there was a quality error in some place, he would be punished by the reinstallation office.

Ma Weixiang has always been upset about Ruan Phucang and cursed the man every day, hoping that there would be problems with the business subcontracted by Ruan Phucang. At that time, he could vent his anger and see Luo Xiangfei's joke. According to Ma Weixiang's idea, Quanfu Machinery Factory is just a township enterprise with weak technical strength. If there is a problem with such cutting-edge equipment subcontracting, it is certain that there will be problems. The only thing he is worried about is that Ruan Phucang can find foreign aid from where to solve technical difficulties, so Ma Weixiang's wish will be dashed.

Whatever is scary comes, and Ruan Phucen really went to find foreign players. But this foreign player is still the technical director under his nose. He is almost one of the most awesome chemical equipment technical experts in Haidong Province. Isn’t this intention to disgust himself?

After receiving the report, Ma Weixiang immediately summoned Dong Yan and asked him about helping Ruan Phucen. Dong Yan knew that something was wrong and said vaguely that the reason he frequently went to Hoi'an City these days was that his mother was sick and he went to visit the disease. Of course, during the visit, he also helped a relative to give some technical problems in production and collected some local specialties as compensation, which was inevitable. If the factory thinks that this behavior is inappropriate, he will firmly correct it and will never collect local specialties again.

"Dong Yan, let me tell you that last time you revealed the Economic Commission meeting to Ruan Phucen, I will settle the score with you! If you dare to rush inside and outside, leak the technical secrets in the factory, and harm the public and private, no matter how much you have made to the factory, I will make you lose money!" Ma Weixiang warned.

Because he knew Ma Weixiang's domineeringness, Dong Yan really dared not go against his will. In the following two weeks, Dong Yan made excuses and did not go back to Huian to help Ruan Phucen. But Ruan Phucen was not so easy to fool. He personally went to Jianlu City, the provincial capital, and entered Dong Yan's home with a large bag of gifts. After meeting, Ruan Phucen did not talk about technology, but just talked about family matters, and made a coincidence to send a huge red envelope to Dong Yan's son and daughter each. In this way, Dong Yan could not refuse his request.

The saint said it well, if there is 100% profit, capital will dare to take the risk of being snatched. If there is 300% profit, capital will dare to trample on all the laws in the world. Faced with Ruan Phuc Gen's money offensive, Dong Yan's wife Xie Li was defeated first. She blew a night of pillow wind for Dong Yan, from the good situation of reform and opening up, to the little truths of son marrying a daughter and daughter getting married, it ultimately boils down to one thing: if you have money but don't make money, you are a fool. If anyone in the factory has never done anything like that, why can't we do it?

Dong Yan also fought fiercely. He imagined the various punishments that Ma Weixiang might give him, such as serious criticism, deduction of bonuses, sitting on the bench, etc., and even thought of the most severe means of being removed from his post as director. He also found countless reasons for himself, such as just helping secretly, he would not be discovered, and he should not be too economically scattered in the future. He also remembered what Ma Weixiang said when he warned him. According to these words, it seems that as long as he does not betray the technical secrets in the factory and does not use the resources in the factory, the factory seems to not care about it...

So, Dong Yan's Sunday engineer career began again. He deceived himself and believed that Ma Weixiang was very busy in daily work and would not specifically investigate this matter. He naively believed that the most serious punishment was just dismissal.

It’s all right if I get rid of my position. If I can earn tens of thousands of dollars, what’s the point of being a director who can’t bear to let go?

Dong Yan endured his heartache and said to himself.

But he never expected that Ma Weixiang's hatred for Ruan Phucen was so profound that the punishment for venting his anger on Dong Yan's head also turned into a thunderous thunder. Just once, Dong Yan finished his work in Hoi An and just returned to Jianlu on a long-distance bus, two policemen appeared in front of him and put on handcuffs with stirrups.

At this moment, Xie Li realized that the matter was serious. She ran to Ma Weixiang crying and claimed that she was willing to refund all the "stolen money" and asked the factory to let Dong Yan go. Ma Weixiang gave her a cold answer, claiming that Dong Yan committed the crime of poaching the country's corner and that the factory could do nothing.

Xie Li searched all the leaders in the factory until someone revealed the truth to her that she realized that behind this matter was the grudge between Ma Weixiang and Ruan Phucang. Dong Yan was shot while lying down. She thought that the reason why the bell had to be tied was to untied, so she immediately called Ruan Phucang and asked Ruan Phucang to mediate.

When Ruan Phuket heard about this, he was as shocked as if he was thundering. He was a businessman and had a special sensitivity to the world. As early as when he was used by Luo Xiangfei, Feng Xiaochen and others, he knew that he had already made a grudge with Ma Weixiang and others, and this grudge might not be resolved. Dong Yan was his distant nephew, and he was facing prison for helping him do things, so he could not ignore it.

So, Nguyen Phucang brought expensive gifts and smiled, and came to Haihuashi to see Ma Weixiang. He decided to treat his face as a rag and let Ma Weixiang step on it with his feet, just to exchange for Ma Weixiang to let Dong Yan go. However, Ma Weixiang did not give him a chance to meet at all, and asked the secretary to bring the message that if Nguyen Phucang dared to send these gifts in, he would call the police again and ask the police to bring Nguyen Phucang, an illegal businessman who attempted to "bribe state cadres."

At this point, Ruan Phucang knew that Ma Weixiang was determined, and it was definitely not something that could be touched by his soft words or gifts. Ruan Phucang did not know any powerful people in the province, and could not use the power of others to impress Ma Weixiang. In desperation, he could only rush to the capital overnight to ask for help from the HSBC.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault!" Ruan Phoenix said repeatedly, "Director Feng, Director Leng, please help. If the police must arrest people, let them arrest me. Dong Yan is a state-owned meal. Once he is sentenced, his life will be over. I am a farmer, and it's nothing great to be in prison for a few days. I can't harm Dong Yan. How can I explain this to his parents!"

Speaking of this, Ruan Phucen was full of tears and completely lost the calmness and confidence of an entrepreneur.

"How can these people do this?" Zhou Mengshi said angrily, "Director Dong used his spare time and did not affect his work. Why should the factory punish him? And he also went through judicial channels. Isn't this a big deal?"
