Chapter 607: Small Schemes
As the number of cars on the roads increased, the traffic bureau came up with quite a few policies to prevent accidents.
Xu Mumu observed the situation in the provincial capital improving, and as the amount of money in her bag increased, Xu Mumu felt quite good.
Professor Song returned a week after the school term started and almost didn’t recognize the place. How did so many cars appear here? Are there that many rich people around?
It was Zhou Yunhong who picked up Professor Song. Seeing the professor’s confusion, Zhou Yunhong smiled and explained.
Professor Song widened his eyes in surprise; it hadn’t been long since he left, and yet so much had happened.
After hearing from Zhou Yunhong, he even felt like getting a car to drive around every day for fun.
When Professor Song returned to the villa area, he saw Professor Jian riding an old car back, looking exceptionally dashing.
"Old Jian, you bought a car?" Professor Song clicked his tongue, thinking this car looked quite decent.
Professor Song went over to take a closer look. This car could seat people at the back, store things, and was electric. He was particularly curious about how it was made.
"Of course, but it’s low on battery now. I’ll take you for a tour tomorrow," Professor Jian said generously. This was a special gift from Xu Mumu, and he now drove it to class, finding it convenient to store things.
"I’ll go buy one myself in a few days," said Professor Song, touching the car.
That evening, when Xu Mumu came back with Doudou, Professor Jian immediately pulled her over to chat, asking mostly about the electric vehicle.
Xu Mumu didn’t hide anything from Professor Song and directly explained everything.
Professor Song listened quietly, feeling moved. Such an idea had never occurred to anyone before; Xu Mumu was truly remarkable.
Embarrassed by Professor Song’s praise, Xu Mumu modestly responded, thinking it was only from her experiences in her past life that she knew these things, and she felt undeserving of credit.
Professor Song felt even more impressed by Xu Mumu’s humility.
Seeing Professor Song’s reaction, Xu Mumu decided not to explain further, as she couldn’t articulate it clearly.
The electric vehicle quickly became popular. Du Yu called to say that they were working on expansion, not only expanding the factory but also needing to hire many more people.
In just a few months, Du Yu was incredibly busy and had lost some weight, appearing more energetic.
Whenever he came to discuss matters with Xu Mumu, his excitement was almost foolish.
Knowing that Professor Song also wanted a car, Xu Mumu asked Du Yu to send him one, making Professor Song so happy that he couldn’t stop praising Xu Mumu.
Now that they had cars, the two professors didn’t have many classes each day and would come back early to play with Doudou.
The child didn’t show any unusual behavior, so Xu Mumu felt at ease leaving him at home with the two professors while she rode the electric vehicle back to her hometown, no longer needing Yin Yang to specially send her.
Now that Doudou was a bit older, Xu Mumu felt comfortable leaving him at home.
On her way back with the small electric vehicle, she was quite surprised to see that many people in the countryside had also bought these vehicles, but considering the efforts of Yin Yang and Huo Qingze, it seemed reasonable to Xu Mumu.
There were even people who bought tricycles to shuttle people between the county town and the village team, making money each trip by carrying three or four people, earning quite a bit each day.
The batteries of the electric vehicles had been improved by her, so charging once allowed them to run for more than half a day without a problem.
When Xu Mumu returned, many people greeted her, and she responded with a smile.
Arriving at the laboratory, she had already arranged for someone to clean it in advance, leaving the room spotless and brightening her mood.
Everything inside was still there, and she had taken away the valuable documents.
Xu Mumu placed her things there and began to tinker with the materials using her blueprints.
While Xu Mumu stayed busy, Yin Yang was not idle either. Previously, due to matters with the Meng Family, Meng Tan dared to plot against him in secret. He hadn’t noticed before, but he took a small hit this time.
This was enough to anger Yin Yang, as even random nobodies dared to scheme against him. The Meng Family had been thriving too smoothly, becoming arrogant.
Since some people had no insight, Yin Yang naturally wouldn’t let them off, dealing with them without hesitation. The Meng Family didn’t even pose a challenge to him, and he took care of them with minimal effort.
He simply had someone investigate their products, uncovering numerous issues, enough to bring trouble to the Meng Family.
Besides the Meng Family, the Wang Family was also up to small tricks. Meng Tan’s niece had married that President Wang, with the Wang Family behind the scenes, so Yin Yang dealt with them together.
The rapid decline of these two companies was known to be Yin Yang’s doing.
These two approached Yin Yang multiple times seeking to apologize, but it was too late, and Yin Yang ignored them completely.
They tried various connections but still couldn’t reach Yin Yang, ultimately returning in disgrace and behaving, as they couldn’t afford further mischief with Yin Yang easily handling them.
The most miserable was probably Meng Fanghua, who had contributed significantly to inciting the two from behind the scenes.
After returning previously, Meng Tan quickly married her off to President Wang, who was not a good person either, and she didn’t like him. Naturally, she blamed all of this on Yin Yang and Xu Mumu, which led to her instigating their sly maneuvers.
Now with the Meng and Wang Families in trouble, her life was in dire straits.
The Meng Family didn’t welcome her, and President Wang liked her even less, thinking that because of her, the Wang Family, which was doing quite well, declined so rapidly.
Yin Yang knew all of this and watched coldly, not telling Xu Mumu to avoid dirtying her innocent ears.
With more time now, Xu Mumu practically visited the lab every day. The manor had meals delivered intentionally, and she no longer required Yin Yang to fetch and carry her, making each day busy yet fulfilling.
The nearby elementary school reopened after its construction was completed. The school recruited the best teachers, attracting more students, making the village team quite bustling.
As Xu Mumu spent her days in the lab, she could hear the vibrant sound of students reading aloud from not far away.
