Scholars in the courtyard

Ran's father said, remembering the days when he worked in Northwest China. It was really hard at that time.

Because that kind of suffering is not only a lack of material things in life, but also a kind of pressure that cannot be lived up to.

"Yes, Chief, I understand."

The secretary no longer felt anxious or entangled, and turned around to leave.

Ran's father picked up the handed data and continued to look at it.

The night is deep and the cold wind is howling.

Father Ran came out of the office rubbing his sore eyes.

This is his normal off-duty point.

Since coming to the Seventh Machinery Department, he has never been back home at a normal time.

If he hadn't known that there was a home in Sijiu City, he might have set up a bed in the office and treated it as his home.

After leaving the office, the guards around him drove up, but Ran's father stayed in front of the car, looking ahead at the words carved on the stone in the dark night.

Guard Xiao Wang didn't interrupt, just waited quietly.

‘Firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, tea, seven essentials of people’s life’

‘** said that we also have seven elements, which are new materials, electronic components, precision machinery, instrumentation, special equipment, testing technology and measurement standards’

Ran's father's mind echoed the words that Mr. Qian told them when they entered the Seven Machinery Department, and these seven elements were engraved on this stone.

Ran's father watched quietly, and finally turned his attention to the precision machinery.

"Xiao Wang, tell me, what would happen if the precision of all the parts was a little higher?"

Xiao Wang, the driver and guard, rubbed his head, feeling a little unfamiliar with the word precision.

Seeing that Xiao Wang didn't speak, Ran's father knew that he had asked the wrong person.

"walk home."

"Remind me tomorrow to find a few masters to understand the situation."

"yes!"

The rising sun dispels the darkness and brings the warmth of light.

It's just that at this time, the sun's rays are shining directly on the southern hemisphere, so the energy carried by the light hitting Sijiu City is not enough to dispel the severe cold in winter.

As a result, Sijiu City was still in the howling cold wind.

After Yang Xiaotao got up, he took out the briquettes from the stove, replaced them with new coal, then filled the pot with water, then took out a pack of noodles, added eggs, ham, cut some cabbage leaves, and then started cooking.

After washing up, the old man from the backyard came over to eat.

Yang Xiaotao scooped up two bowls of noodles, each holding two cloves of garlic, holding the bowl in front of the pot and eating.

After the two of them finished eating, Yang Xiaotao took out the new coal from the stove and let it go out.

It's not the coldest time yet, so there's no need to keep the fire open all day long.

After leaving the front yard, Yang Xiaotao and Lao Dao went out together.

Similarly, the workers all got up early, had their meals, and prepared to go to the factory to work.

Yang Xiaotao said hello to Zhou Kui and the others, then drove Lao Dao to the machinery factory.

At this time, the safety learning program carried out by the machinery factory was very lively. There were continuous bombardments on the radio. Slogans and slogans were painted everywhere in the factory, and banners could be seen everywhere.

Each department also has its own focus.

Just as Yang Xiaotao returned to the office, he saw Lou Xiao'e packing up documents and placing them in the cabinet, with a lock next to it.

"What are you doing?"

"Mr. Yang, I am identifying risks."

Lou Xiao'e said matter-of-factly, and then pointed to the organized cabinet, "Secretary Liu said this time that the things in our office are of the first level in terms of importance. If these materials are lost, it will cause great damage to the factory." great."

"So, I want to categorize these things and prevent theft at the same time, so I bought a lock."

"When the time comes, you will have a pair of keys, a pair of keys for me, and another one for Secretary Liu, so that everything will be safe."

Lou Xiao'e said, her eyes narrowed as if she were smiling.

Yang Xiaotao glanced at the cabinet. It was just a wooden box, and it needed a lock?

He kicked it open with one kick. If he really wanted to get in here, nothing could be prevented by a lock!

"You're doing a good job of classifying things into different categories."

Lou Xiao'e smiled when she heard Yang Xiaotao's praise.

"That's right. I also organized the information from the R\u0026D Department into categories and put them on the shelves so that they can be easily found in the future."

Lou Xiao'e said, but she didn't expect Yang Xiaotao to say something next.

"Then thieves will be able to see clearly at a glance, which will save them trouble."

Lou Xiao'e was stunned, and then realized that Yang Xiaotao was just being stubborn.

"I'll go to the workshop and have a look, you continue!"

Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao had no intention of staying to help, and immediately walked out of the office door and walked to the workshop.

In the second workshop, Chang Mingjie and Chen Bin and Zhang Guanyu discussed the manufacturing situation of the engine.

When several people saw Yang Xiaotao coming, they quickly stopped talking and came to Yang Xiaotao.

"Mr. Yang!"

"How's the engine doing?"

"Team Leader Liu is leading people to manufacture it, but the drawings are a bit complicated and it will take time to operate the machine tool."

Chang Mingjie opened his mouth to explain, and Yang Xiaotao nodded.

He never thought that after taking out the drawings, the people below would be able to make it immediately.

There has to be an adjustment time.

Later, Yang Xiaotao walked in the processing workshop, checking the progress of the work from time to time.

It has to be said that the structure of a two-cylinder diesel engine is more than twice that of a single-cylinder engine.

Fortunately, we are just taking out samples for testing. I believe that a bunch of eighth-level masters in the machinery factory can make it even by rubbing it.

After reading it, Yang Xiaotao felt that the finished product would be ready in two or three days.

"I heard that you are planning to carry out research on semi-automatic lathes. How is the progress?"

Yang Xiaotao returned to his original place, followed by Chang Mingjie, who looked embarrassed when he heard Yang Xiaotao asked.

"Mr. Yang, we put forward the requirements and the comrades from the R\u0026D Department will be responsible for the design."

Yang Xiaotao glanced at Zhang Guanyu standing aside, "Where have you done?"

Zhang Guanyu explained, "Mr. Yang, we have arranged a temporary team to be responsible for the design of the lathe."

"It won't take long to complete."

"Okay, show me the drawings then."

"yes!"

After leaving the second workshop, Yang Xiaotao went to the third workshop to check the engine production status. Nowadays, with the use of machine tools, the improvement of workers' proficiency, and the continuous supply of steel, the engine output of the third workshop is increasing day by day.

I took a trip to the fourth workshop. Several factory areas were extremely busy. Tractors were being assembled and then specialized personnel conducted quality inspections. After passing the quality inspection, they would be driven to the corresponding place and painted by workers in the lumber factory.

The entire process has a clear division of labor and everyone performs their duties.

While Yang Xiaotao was walking around in the workshop, Wang Huzi, who had come from the northwest after a long journey, walked into the door of the First Machinery Department.

In front of the building, Mr. Huang, Mr. Xia, and Mr. Sun were waiting here.

"Old Huang, I haven't seen you for many years. I've been waiting for a long time."

Wang Huzi came forward enthusiastically, and Mr. Huang also joined in.

"We don't dare wait in the office when the chief comes to inspect and guide the work."

Wang Huzi smiled and shook his head, "You are just trying to make fun of me."

As he spoke, he gave Lao Huang a slap on the chest, which looked particularly intimate to outsiders.

"Here, let me introduce you, this is from our First Machinery Department."

Immediately, Mr. Huang finished introducing everyone, and Wang Huzi also shook hands with everyone.

"Let's go inside quickly. You are here at the wrong time. There is such a strong wind."

Mr. Huang led Wang Huzi into the office.

"How big is this? You haven't gone to the northwest to see what wind is and what strong wind is."

"However, you must be fine with your body, because you weighed the scales."

Hahaha

Several people were amused by Wang Huzi, and even Mr. Huang weighed his belly, then inhaled hard and tucked his belly inward.

Arriving at the conference room, everyone took their seats.

Mr. Huang first welcomed Wang Huzi's arrival on behalf of the entire First Machinery Department. Everyone applauded, and Wang Huzi nodded politely and said some words of honor.

After finishing the polite remarks, he went straight to the topic.

"Old Huang, we are no longer outsiders. How have you considered what I said earlier?"

Wang Huzi said, taking out a box of cigarettes and letting people share them.

Mr. Huang also lit one, and soon the conference room was filled with smoke.

"Old Wang, you said what you said last time was too general."

Mr. Huang first looked at Mr. Xia, and then spoke seriously.

"It's okay, I brought a specific plan this time."

As if he had expected it, Wang Huzi took out a document from the briefcase of the entourage behind him, "This is just our preliminary intention, you can see if it works."

Mr. Huang took the file, opened it, glanced at it twice, and then frowned.

Support the establishment of a large steel plant, requiring the use of new converter technology.

This was obviously heading for the Red Star Steel Plant.

However, if this experiment is successful, this new technology will inevitably be promoted, and agreeing to this is nothing more than a matter of time.

The next one is to set up a machinery maintenance shop.

This is okay, after all, the machine repair shop under the jurisdiction of the Red Star Machinery Factory has already built several maintenance centers in the northwest. The northwest wants to have its own machine shop at home, and these people can also help.

Looking further down, Huang Lao's expression worsened.

There are more and more things to help, and this is simply another cut.

The Seventh Machinery Department had already been stabbed. Could it be that Wang Huzi from the northwest saw that the First Machinery Department was easy to bully, so he came to chop him as well?

"Old Wang, your plan is to move our First Machinery Department factory to the northwest of you."

Mr. Huang said with some displeasure, but Wang Huzi smiled, "That's not possible. I just want to borrow your people and experience, and then allocate some equipment to build a heavy industry system in the northwest."

"You also know that there is such a large area in the northwest, but there are not as many factories as in the Forty-Nine City."

“If we don’t develop now, we don’t know what will happen in the future.”

Wang Huzi explained, and Mr. Huang almost jumped up when he heard it. What do you mean by borrowing a few people? Is that a little?

So if I borrowed it, can I still pay it back?

But because of the status of the other party, and now that he was being polite, he could only endure his anger and continue to turn back.

When I saw the last one, I was speechless again.

"Tricycle? Lao Wang, I remember this thing has been developed a few years ago, right?"

"How about you go directly to the car factory?"

Unexpectedly, after Mr. Huang finished speaking, Wang Huzi removed his hand from his beard and said, "Stop talking, that little car doesn't have as much equipment as the Red Star tractor, and it doesn't run as fast as it does. It still has minor problems, and it needs to be repaired because it doesn't have the necessary supporting equipment." equipment, the comrades in the machinery factory have a headache.”

After speaking, he looked at Mr. Huang and said, "I heard that you are going to build a better engine, so I just added one temporarily."

"Anyway, once the engine is built, it has to be used in the car."

"Instead of using it on a tractor, it's better to use it on a three-wheeler."

"Our northwest region is vast and sparsely populated. Having a tricycle will definitely be a big help."

Wang Huzi became more and more excited as he talked, but Mr. Huang and the others remained silent.

When Wang Huzi stopped smiling, Mr. Xia stepped aside and said, "Leader, this new engine was made to adapt to export."

"That's what you said. It doesn't matter."

Wang Huzi nodded seriously, "I understand their requirements, but they didn't clearly say it has to be a tractor?"

"When the time comes, if you move the tricycle to where it can run and pull more, you will definitely be able to conquer them."

"But, we have now designed it according to the standards of a tractor. As long as the engine is in place, it can be produced."

"Besides, it would be better to hand this kind of tricycle to a car factory. They have produced it before, and they have ready experience and production lines, so it will definitely be fast."

Mr. Xia was still explaining that when they responded to the Ministry of Commerce, they specifically stated that the research and development direction was large tractors, and for this reason they also placed a lot of orders with Quancheng.

"Don't talk about the car factory. Last time I wanted to hand it over to Shanghai, but Shanghai rejected it. They said they were engaged in cars."

"I have no choice, so I came to find you."

Wang Huzi smiled, his mental judgment of Secretary Qian was very accurate.

"As for the export issue you mentioned, I think it's very simple."

"When the time comes, you will separate a workshop, one to make tractors and the other to make tricycles."

"If that doesn't work, we can also set up a branch factory in the northwest to specialize in producing cars for export."

Wang Huzi explained, but Mr. Huang closed the document with a snap, "Old Wang, there's no rush. You can see he came back in a hurry. Let's go eat first."

"The sky is big and the earth is big. The biggest thing is eating. Let's walk around."

Wang Huzi was pulled up by Mr. Huang and looked at the time. It was less than half past ten. You have to eat so early. You guys are really good at it.

Although he knew this was an excuse, he still went out with Mr. Huang.

This time things were important, and he was patient and not in a hurry.

I went back to my hometown today to celebrate my family’s birthday, so the update is a bit late, sorry.
