Inspectors from the Ministry of Agriculture came to Qinghe, led by Li Weidong's old acquaintance Liang Xin.

This inspection has two main purposes. One is to see the production situation of lawn mowers, and also to support Fukang Agricultural Machinery Factory to prevent the local government or other interested people from embarrassing Fukang Agricultural Machinery Factory.

After all, this is the first time that domestic agricultural machinery has been exported to the United States. Of course, the Ministry of Agriculture must do its best to ensure that this order can be completed smoothly.

A visit by a department-level cadre like Liang Xin may not have much influence on supervising the production of Fukang Agricultural Machinery Factory, but it can definitely play a protective role.

The second purpose of the inspection is to see whether the agricultural tricycle mentioned by Li Weidong is eligible for special agricultural machinery subsidies.

Liang Xin and others arrived at the open space of the agricultural machinery factory, where several agricultural tricycles were already placed.

Liang Xin looked at the agricultural tricycle and said, "It is much larger than the Dongfeng 021 tricycle. It looks close to four meters long, right?"

"The overall dimensions of the vehicle are 3.7 meters long and 1.45 meters wide. The dimensions of the cargo box are 2 meters long and 1.45 meters wide. It can be made larger if necessary!" Li Weidong replied.

"That's bigger than a minivan. It's about to catch up with the car!" Liang Xin said.

At that time, the Tianjin Dafa van manufactured by Tianjin Automobile Factory was only 3.2 meters long and 1.4 meters wide, which was one size smaller than the Fukang No. 1 agricultural tricycle.

The old Santana sedan was 4.54 meters long and 1.71 meters wide, which was larger than the Fukang agricultural tricycle. However, the Santana at that time was, after all, regarded as an executive business vehicle.

By the standards of tricycles, the Fukang No. 1 agricultural tricycle is indeed relatively large, and it is much larger than the Dongfeng 021 agricultural tricycle on the market.

Li Weidong explained: "Make it bigger, it will be easier to sell goods, and it will be more practical."

Liang Xin walked around an agricultural tricycle and said, "Director Li, this cargo box of yours is 2 meters by 1.45 meters. Can it really pull two tons of cargo?"

"Actually, the rated load mass is 700 kilograms, and two tons is the overload data." Li Weidong lowered the balance slightly and said: "There is no one who is not overloading these days when transporting goods!"

When buying goods in the 1990s, overloading was normal.

The rated load is 700 kilograms, and overloading to two tons is definitely not a problem, and can even be considered a relatively conservative figure.

Anyone who has driven a large truck knows that in this era of overloading, overloading ten times is not a problem. Those who are brave can overload twenty times! A small truck with a load of 1.5 tons dares to pull 30 tons of cargo on the road.

What Li Weidong said before that it could pull two tons of cargo was also based on overload data.

In an era where everyone is overloaded, if you report an extra load figure, isn’t that crazy?

Of course Liang Xin also knew about this situation. He pondered for a moment and said: "I checked before I came here. The 021 three-wheeled motorcycle on the market has a rated load of 350 kilograms. According to this calculation, the 021 three-wheeled motorcycle is overloaded by friction.

If you do it at once, you can pull a ton of cargo?"

"Boss, the 021 three-wheeler can't pull one ton of cargo. Its rated load is 350 kilograms. If it is overloaded, it can pull 500 kilograms at most." Li Weidong replied with a smile.

"Why can your Fukang No. 1 agricultural tricycle with a rated load of 700 kilograms be able to overload to two tons, and your 021 three-wheeled motorcycle with a rated load of 350 kilograms cannot be overloaded to one ton?" Liang Xin asked.

"Because the 021 three-wheeler lacks a core technology of cargo motorcycles, which is the rear axle assembly."

Li Weidong gave a hint to the people in the technical department, and the young man in the technical department immediately brought a rear axle assembly.

"Leader, please see, this is the rear axle assembly used by our Fukang No. 1 agricultural tricycle. Without this thing, our Fukang No. 1 can only pull 500 kilograms of cargo!"

Li Weidong walked to the rear axle assembly and introduced: "The function of an agricultural tricycle is to transport goods, so the rear axle assembly needs to have a certain load-bearing function, but this is not the most critical. The key is that the agricultural tricycle is rear-wheel drive.

, rear wheel brake.

In other words, the driving and braking of agricultural tricycles are all on the rear axle assembly. If the rear axle assembly is not up to standard, the tricycle will be loaded with cargo and cannot start or stop."

Li Weidong said, then pointed to the cargo box of the agricultural three-way truck, and continued: "The rear axle assembly used by our Fukang No. 1 should be able to carry more cargo, but it is limited by the size of the cargo box, so it is probably

It can only be overloaded to two tons, and currently we are using a motorcycle engine, which has insufficient power and torque to support pulling heavier goods."

"So that's the advantage of core technology!" Liang Xin nodded in realization, and then asked: "Is your rear axle assembly a self-developed technology?"

"Leader, to be honest, this rear axle assembly production line was purchased from Japan." Li Weidong sighed helplessly: "Our domestic enterprises cannot yet produce this kind of rear axle assembly, so we only

You can buy it from developed countries. There is nothing you can do about it..."

"Director Li, you don't have to explain this. It is a fact that domestic agricultural machinery lags behind developed countries in terms of technology. Everyone knows it! We can buy the technology of developed countries and bring progress to the development of agricultural machinery in our country and bring benefits to farmers."

It’s affordable and a good thing worth encouraging!”

Liang Xin nodded with satisfaction. Japanese technology is still trustworthy. Liang Xin even felt that the technology bought from Japan was more reassuring than the domestic technology. This is not to worship foreigners, but that their technology is indeed better.

Some.

The next second, Liang Xin remembered another thing, and he asked: "Director Li, you said that the rear axle assembly of this agricultural tricycle is Japanese technology. At the Hokkaido Agricultural Machinery Exhibition a few days ago, we

We participated together, why didn’t we see Japanese companies exhibiting this thing?”

"It's a bit embarrassing to say that this rear axle assembly of an agricultural tricycle is a Japanese technology from the 1960s and 1970s. Nowadays, Japanese farmers are driving small trucks. Agricultural tricycles have been eliminated in Japan for 20 years.

." Li Weidong paused and then said:

"Not only farmers in Japan, but also in developed countries, all drive cars, and they don't need agricultural tricycles. At exhibitions like the Hokkaido Agricultural Machinery Exhibition, agricultural machinery manufacturers will bring out advanced agricultural machinery, and they will not exhibit it.

Obsolete products.”

These words made Liang Xin feel sad again. The technology that others had eliminated for twenty years was still not available to him.

Li Weidong continued: "Leader, here I can only show you the agricultural tricycle. If you want to see the practicality of the agricultural tricycle, you have to go to the grassroots village! However, the conditions in the village are more difficult, and the leader

If you go, I’m afraid you won’t be well received!”

Li Weidong's words were equivalent to putting Liang Xin on the fire and forcing him to inspect the village.

First let’s talk about the difficult conditions in the village. Now Liang Xin has to go even if he doesn’t want to go. If he doesn’t go, wouldn’t it mean he is afraid of hardship? The leader stopped inspecting because of the poor conditions at the grassroots level. If the word gets out, it won’t sound good.

.

Of course Liang Xin also knew that Li Weidong was forcing him to go to the village. He did not refuse, but said: "It's good to go to the countryside. We are just engaged in agriculture. How can we carry out our work if we don't go to the grassroots rural areas? Director Li

Ah, don’t underestimate me, I also come from a farming background!”

"Okay, boss, let's get in the car first. When we get on the bus, I will introduce you slowly." Li Weidong said.

…

Li Weidong accompanied Liang Xin and sat in the back seat of the car.

"Leader, the place we are going to soon is called Chenguan Township. The reason why it is called this is because there used to be a pass there called Chenguan. It was bombed during the Anti-Japanese War. Now two bricks cannot be found."

Li Weidong opened his mouth and introduced.

"The passes are usually built along mountains. It seems that this Chenguan Township is mountainous, right?" Liang Xin asked.

Li Weidong nodded: "The leaders are really meticulous. From this place name alone, we know that Chenguan Township is full of mountains and there is almost no flat land. The land on the mountains is barren and not suitable for farming. Not much food can be grown, so

Chenguan Township is also a poor township in Qinghe.

There is a saying that the sky is not sunny for three days and the land is not three feet flat. It means that our area in Guizhou is mountainous and rainy. In our Chenguan Township, the land is also not three feet flat, and it does not have as abundant water resources as Guizhou.

, many places are truly barren mountains, and the natural conditions are not as good as Guizhou!

Leader, in front of you is the Chenguan Township camp, which is a rare flat place in the township. Once you leave the township camp, you will enter the mountains!"

As Li Weidong said, the car had already entered Chenguan Township.

I saw many farmers squatting on both sides of the road, with baskets of fresh peaches and other agricultural products in front of them.

Li Weidong went on to introduce: "Most of these are farmers living in the mountains. They carry their own things to the town to sell. Those who live on the outskirts of the mountainous area are better. If they sell out on the same day, they can still go home, but those who live in the mountains can

Yes, it only takes a day or two to get out of the mountains, and another day or two to get back. It is not easy to go out to the mountains.

Liang Xin nodded. The slogan "If you want to get rich, build roads first" was put forward during the "Seventh Five-Year Plan" period. It was only five years ago. The roads in the rural areas of the plains have not yet been repaired. The roads in the rural areas of the mountainous areas have not yet been repaired.

Not even a single horoscope has been written.

The station in Chenguan Township is very small, and there is only one main road. The car quickly drove out of Chenguan Township and entered the mountainous area, and the road quickly became bumpy.

In 1991, China's infrastructure was far less developed than it is now. Apart from national and provincial roads, there were no decent roads. It was difficult to find roads in mountainous and remote areas.

Li Weidong continued: "Leader, we are about to enter the mountains. If we continue to walk forward, we can't take a car because there is no road and the car can't drive in. Then you will feel aggrieved and take a farm tricycle to enter the village!"

"I thought you had to let me walk. It's pretty good to have a tricycle!" Liang Xin said with a smile.

Not long after, the road really disappeared, and cars could not drive into the mountains. However, Li Weidong had already arranged for several Fukang No. 1 tricycles, and the people from the Ministry of Agriculture inspection team directly got on the tricycles and drove towards the mountains.

The road in the mountains is not easy to walk, and the feeling of sitting on an agricultural tricycle is not good. The bumps and vibrations make people's buttocks hurt. Many people simply stop riding in the car and squat on the car instead, which is more comfortable.

Li Weidong continued to introduce: "Leader, look at the road we are taking now. It is said to be a road, but it is actually a flat slope on the hillside. Cars will definitely not be able to get in with this kind of road condition. Not only is it

Cars and tractors are too much!"

"The road conditions are very bad, but the tractor should be able to travel on this road, right?" Liang Xin said.

"If you drive the front of a tractor alone, you can definitely go, but what if you bring a trailer to pull goods? Just the few turns we just passed, the trailer can't turn around!" Li Weidong replied with a smile.

Liang Xin looked back and saw the winding mountain road, and instantly showed an expression of enlightenment.

"I understand, this kind of agricultural tricycle has a smaller turning radius, so it is much more flexible than a tractor or a car in mountainous areas! This thing is really a magical tool for mountainous transportation!"
