Technological power starts with upgrading lenses

Chapter 58 I want to go back but dare not go back

"Don't worry, it will be soon."

Kang Chi finally gave them a general answer.

"I know this may mean that Daqin Optics may go through a difficult and dark time in the future."

"I hope that by that time, you can stick to your posts and never give up until the last moment. Here, I can also assure you that no matter how effective Daqin Optics is in the future, no one will be laid off or anyone will be reduced. A person’s salary!”

With Kang Chi's guarantee, although everyone's worries have not completely disappeared, they finally feel more at ease.

at least,

Daqin Optics' current income is still good, and it won't go down immediately...

Jiangbei Province,
Dabie Mountains.

The mountains, which stretch for hundreds of kilometers, look particularly peaceful and mysterious under the heavy snow.

Kang Chi's hometown is in this mountain, a small village called Baosheng.

Although there are still more than ten days before the Chinese New Year, some young people who have gone out to work and study have begun to come back one after another, making the usually slightly depressed village begin to feel a bit lively.

"Lao Kang, your Xiaochi hasn't come back yet?"

As usual, the village party secretary Fan Jingui said hello to Kang Daoming who was smoking in the front yard when passing by Kang Chi's house.

"Not so soon, your boy is back?"

"It's early... Do you know when Xiaochi will be back?"

"I asked last time and said I wasn't sure yet. What's wrong?"

"It's okay, it's just that the village needs to register the people returning home. If Xiaochi decides on the time, remember to give me a shout."

"Well, I remember."

Kang Daoming took a puff of cigarette and watched Fan Jingui leave, feeling a little confused.

As the Chinese New Year was getting closer, this old fan came to ask Kang Chi every now and then if he was back and when he would be back.

It's like an old man suffering from amnesia...

Kang Daoming put out his cigarette, walked into the kitchen, and said to Liu Xuemei uneasily: "Just now, Lao Fan came again to ask if Xiaochi had returned... You said, nothing happened to Xiaochi, right?"

"Something happened?" Seeing Kang Daoming's worried look, Liu Xuemei couldn't help but become nervous, "Xiao Chi has been honest and sensible since he was a child, what could happen?"

As she said that, she took out her cell phone, thinking of calling directly to ask about the situation.

So after Kang Chi left Daqin Optics, the phone rang as soon as he got in the car.

He immediately answered the call and called mom with a smile.

Hearing her son's voice, Liu Xuemei felt half at ease.
She glanced at Lao Kang, and then asked Kang Chi: "Xiao Chi, have you had lunch? Where are you now?"

"I'm in Dongyang. I'm getting ready to eat. Have you eaten?"

"Oh... In Dongyang, we are almost ready to eat..."

Hearing that Liu Xuemei seemed to be a little relieved, Kang Chi suddenly felt a little strange.
Usually his mother would only call him at night, and it had only been a few days since the last time she talked to her family.

Why did you call me again suddenly at noon today?
"Mom, is there nothing going on at home? Is dad at home?"

"Your dad was smoking in the yard just now. There's nothing going on at home. Mom just wanted to ask you, when do you plan to come back for the New Year?"

"Oh……"

Kang Chi estimated that the two old men had not seen him for more than half a year, and they might indeed miss him a little.

As the Chinese New Year approaches, I miss you even more.

Dahan Silicon Industry, after Kang Chi's training during this period, has gradually got on the right track, and can start building single crystal furnaces directly after the first phase of the project is completed.

He estimated the time and replied: "I'll wrap things up here. It will probably take another week at most. I'll be back three or four days ago."

"Okay, okay," Liu Xuemei's face immediately showed a smile when she heard that her son could come back three or four days early. "Then you should be careful on the road."

"Well, by the way, have you used up the money I gave you last time? The New Year is coming soon, do you still have enough money to buy new year's goods at home?" "Enough, enough, you sent so much last time, how can we use it all?" ?You don’t have to send so much money home all the time. If you have more money, just save it yourself. You are not young anymore. Although we have saved you some money to marry a wife over the years, if you find a city... …”

"Okay, okay, I get it." Liu Xuemei could talk about this topic for a long time when she mentioned it. Kang Chi felt dizzy when he heard it and quickly interrupted her, "What else is missing at home? Do you want me to bring anything back? "

"I don't need anything. I just need you to come back."

"Well, I understand. If there's nothing else to do, I'll hang up first."

Kang Chi was afraid that his mother would bring the topic back again, so he ended the call in a hurry.

Hey……

These days, I still want to go home.

But sometimes I don’t dare to go back...

The pressure is great.

Regarding the two elders in the family, Kang Chi is actually very helpless.

When he opened a repair shop before, the two elders also came to Dongyang to visit him several times.

Every time Kang Chi proposed to let them stay in Dongyang,

But the two elders were accustomed to rural life and were reluctant to part with the little land at home. They were not willing to stay in the city at all.

Mainly because of the atmosphere in the city, which made them very uncomfortable and depressed.
Even if they are neighbors in the same building, most of them have no friendship at all and are even a little wary...

So this is simply not a problem that Kangchi can solve by making money.

They can only go back.

As for showing more filial piety and giving them more money...

Kang Chi also thought about it, but felt it was unnecessary.
There are not many places to spend money in the countryside. No matter how much money you give them, they will end up saving it.

Scams are so rampant now, what if the two elders were defrauded of their savings...

It's nothing to lose a little money, but I'm afraid that I'll make the old man angry.
He even couldn't think of anything extreme to do.

Seeing Liu Xuemei hang up the phone, Lao Kang quickly asked Kang Chi what he said.

After learning that Kang Chi would be back in the next three or four days, his old face couldn't help but smile.

"This brat doesn't seem to have found a girlfriend yet, so he changes the subject whenever he mentions it." Liu Xuemei said with some worry, "Aunt Li's son brought a girl back this time. I went to see her yesterday. Bai It's white, tender and dewy...but the frame is a little thinner, as if it hasn't eaten."

Regarding this topic, Kang Daoming just hummed lightly and did not answer the question.

But there was also a hint of melancholy in his eyes,
How can their family's situation compare with Aunt Li's family?

Aunt Li's family got rich in the past few years and moved to the city long ago. They only come back to their hometown during the holidays.

Not to mention his son,
Although he is a few years younger than Kang Chi, he was admitted to graduate school last year, and his future can be said to be bright.
It's not surprising at all that he can fall in love with a girl from the city.

Hey,
I blame myself for not having the ability,

Back then, I had no money to hire a tutor for Kang Chi, enroll in a tutoring class, etc...

However, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings.
If you are not this material, even if you hire a tutor or sign up for a tutoring class, you still won't be able to get into college!
Lao Kang only blamed himself a little, but soon let go.

In fact, my son is not bad either.

Although they entered the society early, in the past few years, they had learned the skills of repairing electronic machinery in the city and opened their own shop, so they didn't need to worry at all.

Ok……

Except marrying a wife.

　Some readers may worry about straying off course after reading this chapter.

　　Don’t worry, the main thread of this book is to climb the technological tree. I will try not to write about such daily and emotional content.
　　But if you don’t write at all, the protagonist is like a gear without lubricant, only scientific research and career, spinning constantly like a top.
　　So at more important time points, you still need to bring some.
