As night fell and the stars twinkled, Wang Ze and many other people in the village gathered in front of the machinery factory, anxiously waiting for the power to be turned on.

You know, this area of land has never had any experience of power supply from a power station, and in the past, at most only the generators of government departments provided a little electricity supply.

Wang Ze looked at the villagers sitting and chatting in the open space at the door, and couldn't help feeling emotional.

Just a small thing like having electricity made everyone so excited.

Only he knew that as time went by, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, most counties would have access to electricity, and this era would be different from the past.

The country under the leadership of the organization is ushering in a new beginning, and everything in the future will become better.

Wang Ze thought that he was not seeking to stand out, but only wanted to quietly follow the country's development pace.

After all, even without his personal involvement, the country could still achieve great things.

For example, several aircraft carriers have been successfully launched, and even the first self-built aircraft carrier is named after the province. Other provinces are still slowly lining up.

Seeing that there was no call yet and the temperature was dropping gradually at night, Wang Ze was worried that everyone would catch a cold and get sick, so he enthusiastically called on the villagers to go into the factory room and wait.

These factory buildings have been carefully renovated by Wang Ze, which has enhanced their thermal insulation performance to a certain extent, but his work has not deliberately improved their sturdiness.

He thought to himself that it would be embarrassing if these factories needed to be demolished decades later but there were no machines capable of doing the job.

"Oh, Ji Ze, your place is really great! It's not cold at all in such a big factory. It's even warmer than my home!"

The villagers were amazed, as it was the first time for them to set foot in this place.

Although I had heard that a factory was built here before, I only caught a glimpse of its spectacular exterior when passing by from the outside. Who would have expected that the thermal insulation performance inside was so excellent? I couldn't help but feel envious.

Wang Ze made up an excuse and said

"This factory building adopts a masonry structure, and special consideration was given to the issue of heat preservation when it was first designed. After all, we can't completely shut down the factory in winter, right?"

He secretly thanked himself for his quick reaction, otherwise if he really took it seriously he wouldn't be able to say that everything was due to his superpower.

While everyone was chatting, Wang Ze suddenly felt a strong electric current surge, so he hurried out to check the situation.

He came to the distribution box and gently flipped the switch inside. With a crisp "click", the whole factory was instantly enveloped by bright lights.

The scene before them made everyone excited—the power was finally connected!

The villagers looked up with great interest at the rows of lit lamps on the factory roof and talked about the various benefits brought by electricity.

However, at this moment, some sharp-eyed villagers noticed the neatly arranged machinery and equipment, especially the large ones that were towing plowing structures.

For those who are familiar with farm work, they can guess the purpose of these machines at a glance.

When Wang Ze returned, he was surprised to find that the villagers were gathered around the tiller with great interest, talking about it in a buzzing voice.

"Jize, is this the tillage equipment you mentioned earlier?"

Wang Youli had sharp eyes. When he saw Wang Ze approaching, he quickly asked.

Wang Ze nodded, his eyes sparkling with excitement, and replied

"That's right! Not only did I design this tiller, I also specially equipped it with other replaceable accessories. In this way, whether it is plowing, furrowing or sowing, everything can be easily completed through mechanized operation!"

Hearing this, everyone was amazed, their eyes fixed on this brand new machine.

Some people couldn't help but ask curiously: "How much does such a powerful thing cost?"

Wang Ze hesitated for a moment, then quoted a price.

“It’s 400 yuan per device, and it comes with one basic function. If you need a device with other functions, it will cost an additional 100 yuan each.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the originally lively scene suddenly became silent. The villagers looked at each other, obviously shocked by the price - such an expensive price is definitely not something that ordinary farmers can afford.

Seeing this, Wang Ze also understood where the problem lay.

He looked at the crowd that had suddenly become quiet and sighed inwardly, knowing that at this price, no one would be willing to buy it.

So he quickly added: "But it doesn't matter. I have prepared a few sets for our village to use. When the time comes, anyone who wants to borrow it can do so. It's completely free! You just need to prepare some firewood and water to make it work."

In fact, Wang Ze never thought of making money from this. He just wanted to take this opportunity to enhance his prestige in the village.

Sure enough, when the villagers heard that they could use it for free, they immediately smiled and praised Wang Ze's ability and praised him highly.

If Wang Ze had not had such an extraordinary keen hearing that he had caught the villagers' gossip about his "spendthrift", he would probably have naively believed these people.

In the following days, Wang Ze not only connected electricity to the house where he lived, he even planned to bring the factory's electricity to the village so that the villagers could pay for their own electricity and have access to electricity.

However, this beautiful vision was strongly opposed by his brother.

Even if the villagers were willing to bear the expenses themselves, the eldest brother remained tough and said it was impossible.

The reason is simple. Wangjiatun has produced many talented people in various fields and positions. If the county town has no electricity, but the whole village has electricity,

How would other villages view this? And what would the higher-level organizations think?

Faced with such a situation, Wang Ze had no choice but to quietly dismantle the electrical wires in his home that had just been connected.

So far, only the factory in the entire Wangjiatun can enjoy the convenience brought by electricity.

As for those electrical appliances such as rice cookers, electric baking pans, kettles, etc. that once made life convenient, he once again hid them deep in the warehouse of the underground base, and it is unknown when they will see the light of day again.

When the number of tillage machines accumulated to ten sets, Wang Ze stopped further production.

After all, even if more machines were produced, they would not be able to be sold successfully.

Someone suggested that Wang Ze go to the county town to open a store to sell the products, but he felt that it was too cumbersome and troublesome. He found it troublesome to sell the products himself, but he was afraid of being labeled a "capitalist" by hiring someone to sell them. After much hesitation, the plan was eventually abandoned.

As a result, this factory, which was once full of Wang Ze's hopes and aspirations, gradually became a large-scale handicraft workshop.

It was only for Wang Ze's own entertainment. Even the factory door had not been opened for a long time. During the entire New Year period, Wang Ze did not step into the factory once.
