Chapter 975 The school sweetheart’s first love who took a check and went abroad (13)
To her delight, after days of dismantling, assembling, and debugging, when Ila returned to school in Christchurch after her summer vacation, her version 2.0 electric wool pusher was finally successfully produced!
If more advanced alternative materials can be found for the drive shaft and thrust seat, 3.0 will be available soon.
However, the 2.0 version has improved a lot compared to the original electric clipper. If nothing else, it can cut thirty or forty sheep in an hour.
"ha?"
Hearing what she said, the Hunters almost dropped their jaws. They looked at each other and thought there was something wrong with their ears.
Shearing the wool of thirty or forty large sheep in one hour? One per minute on average? real or fake?
Xu Yin nodded: "Really! Because there is no need to stop for cooling and lubrication, the speed is naturally faster. It's a pity that the materials are limited, otherwise it could be faster."
!!”
The Hunters couldn't believe their ears.
No need to cool down?
No need for lubrication?
More than a minute is not the fastest. Can it be faster by changing the material?
The couple felt like they were in a dream.
After regaining consciousness, Mrs. Hunter hugged Xu Yin excitedly: "Sean, you are really amazing! Like an inventor!"
Mr. Hunter nodded in agreement, wondering whether he should give Sean a salary increase?
Shearing thirty or forty sheep an hour is equivalent to hiring two shearers.
Xu Yin didn’t know that she was about to get a salary increase. She was inquiring about what information she needed to submit when applying for a patent.
It would be great if we could find a factory to cooperate with in China, and they would provide their technology and get a share. It would be easy and profitable.
It’s a pity that she is now a Taiwanese. Even if she goes back, she will at best return to the mainland to invest as a Taiwanese compatriot.
For investment, the money she has on hand is not enough.
It would be better to transfer and cash out here, make yourself rich first, and then return to China for development if you have the opportunity.
The Hunters learned that she wanted to find a factory to cooperate with and enthusiastically accepted the task:
“I’ll ask the mayor for you.”
“I can also ask my uncle for help and inquire about the manufacturer of wool clippers.”
The mayor heard that Sean had improved the electric wool clippers that were always getting hot and needed lubrication. When used continuously for an hour, they did not heat up and did not need to be lubricated. This greatly improved the shearing efficiency, so he made a special trip to learn about the situation.
He hasn't been to Hunter's house for a while since he made a mistake. Mainly because he was too embarrassed to face Xu Yin. This time he couldn't bear it anymore.
Xu Yin caught a sheep that was losing its wool and demonstrated it to him on the spot.
“Oh! It’s really not hot at all. You said it can be used for an hour without cooling or lubrication? Can it last longer if you change the material? That’s great!”
The mayor immediately made the decision:
“Sean, if you really want to find a partner, I have someone to recommend! I have an old friend who is a partner of the Oakland Electric Wool Pushing Factory. He must be interested in this new product.”
The mayor's friend Valf is indeed very interested and even wants to recruit Xu Yin to work as a technician in the wool pushing factory.
"I can help you apply for a patent award." Valf flew from Auckland specifically for this matter and came to discuss with Xu Yin, "But can the product technology be transferred to me at once? The cooperation proposal of technology investment may be a bit difficult to operate. Difficulty."
"Because of my identity?" Xu Yin was somewhat mentally prepared for this. To local people, she was a foreigner. How could a local factory be allowed to sell shares to foreigners?
Think about it in his shoes, she can understand it.
There is no need to embarrass Valv: "Then let's transfer it in one go."
“Don’t worry, I will try my best to satisfy you in terms of price.” Valf smiled and extended his hand, “I am impressed by Miss Sean’s talent, and I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation next time.”
Xu Yin shook hands with him, thinking of the 3.0 that could be upgraded at any time, she smiled and agreed.
I don’t know how many patent awards I can apply for, but from what Valf said, there are definitely some. He discussed the technology transfer fee with his partners when he returned home. Within a few days, he came to Xu Yin with the contract and a check of 300,000 New Zealand dollars.
Walf heard a lot about Xu Yin's deeds from the mayor. She was brave, careful, and extremely powerful. She also knew Chinese Kung Fu. She could kill a 200-pound strong man with one move.
Such a capable person, even if he has other ideas, would not dare to make any calculations. What's more, Xu Yin also said that if she was given some time, she could develop an electric wool pusher that was more advanced than 2.0. How could Valf have other ideas? I just want to win over Xu Yin so that we can cooperate a second or third time in the future.
No, she was granted a transfer fee of NZD 300,000.
With this income, Xu Yin felt that she was truly well-off.
Given the right opportunity, it would be more than enough to set up a farm and ranch similar in size to the Hunter family.
She looked at the mountains stretching hundreds of kilometers in the distance and sighed again: It would be great if there was still open space around here.
After autumn, the area of snow covering the mountains is getting bigger and bigger, spreading from the top of the mountain all the way down, leaving only the foot of the mountain with some greenery.
Xu Yin's heart moved and she wanted to go to the foot of the mountain.
Some time ago, all the wool sheared in the spring was dried, sorted, rolled into bundles and sold to buyers. The warehouses were also cleaned, waiting for winter to turn to spring to store the next wave of sheared wool.
She only had the cleaning job left at hand.
In fact, a temporary shearer like her originally only worked for one spring.
Mrs. Hunter liked her so much that she kept her for season after season.
Xu Yin is not short of money now and can leave anytime she wants, but she hasn’t figured out her next plan yet. She quite likes working at Hunter Ranch and plans to continue working.
Small farms are just like small workshops. There are no regular weekly holidays. You can ask for leave if you have something to do and go to work if you have nothing to do.
As soon as Xu Yin said she wanted to take a day off and ride a motorcycle to the foot of the mountain to see the scenery, Mrs. Hunter agreed and even said:
"If it gets dark, don't rush back. The area at the foot of the mountain is Mrs. Haiqiong's property. She is a very kind person. If you need to stay overnight or encounter other troubles when it gets late, you can boldly go to her for help. She will help you."
Xu Yin nodded, and when she went to the kitchen to prepare dry food and water for tomorrow's trip, she heard the cook sigh a few words: "Mrs. Haiqiong is a good person, but it's a pity that she married an inhumane person. Her husband, alas... it's hard to describe her in words."
Xu Yin: “…”
Why can't you say that it's hard to explain in one sentence?
The cook cleared her throat: "Look at your sparkling eyes. Since you want to hear it so much, I'll tell you."
…”
After listening to what the cook said, Xu Yin understood why there was no cattle or sheep in such a large pasture at the foot of the mountain.
During the few days she was grazing, she was wondering: It was such a big pasture, but it was empty. There was not a single cow or sheep in sight. If there was no grazing, would it still be called a pasture?
It can be said that no one lives there. In the row of houses near the foot of the mountain, smoke can sometimes be seen coming from the chimneys, indicating that someone lives there.
