Scholars in the courtyard

Yang Xiaotao nodded, and then Lou Xiao'e ran in from outside, still holding the slippery soap in her hand, with surprise on her face.

"Leader, factory director, director! This rag is so clean."

Speaking of which, the original rag was placed on the table. This rag has been used by Lou Xiaoe since Yang Xiaotao moved in. Although it is washed every time, the original color has long been lost, but now.

The white mass came out.

"So easy?"

Yang Youning said curiously, but Lou Xiao'e nodded vigorously.

Then, Yang Youning reached out and took two pieces, "I'll take them back and try them."

"I'll take two dollars too!"

Liu Huaimin also went to get it.

Yang Xiaotao put away the remaining three pieces, "Keep these two pieces for Uncle Chen and Uncle Wang. I will go back and promote the rest to the chemical factory."

Xu Yuanshan smiled and said, "I asked everyone to deliver what I made yesterday. Anyway, it hasn't been officially put into production yet. Let everyone share it."

"That's great, I'm finally going to taste the sweetness of a chemical plant!"

Yang Youning smiled on the side, and then left with Liu Huaimin.

Xu Yuanshan was also happy that their chemical plant finally had something to sell, and he was also confident in the petrochemical industry proposed by Yang Xiaotao.

Lou Xiao'e put the soap on the table. Seeing that no one mentioned it, she carefully put it aside. This piece was hers.

Yang Xiaotao asked him to find Chen Bin and Zhang Guanyu, and he discussed with Xu Yuanshan the production of soap in the chemical factory.

"Uncle Xu, go back and ask if there is any way to obtain spices. If you can find them, you can add them to the soap."

"spices?"

"Yes, then the soap we produce will be soap!"

"Soap?"

"Yes, it's scented soap!"

The two were talking in the room, and Chen Bin and Zhang Guanyu walked in at the door.

Yang Xiaotao briefly explained the situation of the chemical plant. The two of them were surprised to hear that the chemical plant actually produced soap.

They also know the market price of soap in China. If a chemical factory produces soap, it will be on a first-come-first-served basis. Their machine factory is always much more convenient.

"Go and take a look at the process flow, what kind of machine is needed for what purpose, come back and design it as soon as possible, and let Chang Mingjie organize people to make it."

"I won't give you these two pieces. When the work is done, ask Director Xu for it."

Yang Xiaotao said, and the two of them smiled.

Later, Xu Yuanshan took the two people to the chemical plant. They wanted to understand the process requirements of the chemical plant and then make machinery.

By the time they got off work, news about the new soap had spread in the machinery factory, but Lou Xiao'e was told not to spread the news. No one could find out the news, but there were many people seen at the edge of the pool at that time.

So, everyone was asking about it, but couldn't get any confirmation.

Yang Xiaotao went home with a piece of soap. Behind her, Lou Xiao'e wrapped the piece for her in paper, put it in her bag, and went home happily.

The next day, Chen Bin and Zhang Guanyu recorded the equipment needed by the chemical plant and came to Yang Xiaotao according to the needs.

Yang Xiaotao took a look and saw a heating mixer, a cooling module, and then a molding equipment. As for other small things, they added up to a lot, but they were not difficult.

The two not only wrote down the requirements, but also made preliminary preparations, such as this heating mixer. The machinery factory has a ready-made mixer. As for heating, just add a stove below.

Yang Xiaotao felt that it was not difficult and could be done by just a few seventh-level workers, so he put the two of them in charge of this matter.

The two of them went home yesterday and brought back a piece of soap. After using it, their family members said it was good, and the neighbors started asking about it.

I also know this is a good thing and take it to heart.

The news of soap spreading in the machinery factory was already confirmed when the two gathered people to make equipment!

The news has spread a lot, and many people are thinking about whether they can give out a piece of soap as a new year gift during the Chinese New Year.

Of course, many people think this way, but not many people really mean it.

These days, everyone is also aware of the scarcity of soap, not only the scarcity of raw materials, but also the limitations of technology.

So, this is just the beautiful expectation of the workers.

Two days later.

The machinery factory makes the machines needed for the chemical industry, and trucks pull them to install them.

In order to make room for these equipment, the chemical plant specially set aside two warehouses, one for storing raw materials and one for producing finished products.

Fortunately, during the previous renovation, in order to prepare for the future petrochemical industry, the chemical plant area was not small.

The place is ready.

Yang Xiaotao didn't go. The team was led by Wang Fa, and most of the people who went with him were people from the R\u0026D department.

In addition, Xu Yuanshan was originally their old leader. With him, problems can be solved.

It took a day to install it, and the next step was machine debugging.

On the other side, at Chen Gong's request, the people from the Logistics Department reached an agreement with two slaughterhouses in Sijiu City.

In fact, the two slaughterhouses are preparing to cooperate with the No. 1 Chemical Factory. However, the No. 1 Chemical Factory is currently affected by production and does not have an urgent need for raw materials.

According to their plan, the first factory will expand production after the year, and by then, the two slaughterhouses will provide them with raw materials.

But now, when the machinery factory proposes cooperation, how can these two slaughterhouses refuse?

In particular, one of the machinery factories was where Wang Dashan was located, and it was the steel rolling mill that installed the radiators for them. There was no reason to refuse, either emotionally or rationally.

Furthermore, with the size of a machinery factory, everyone knows that there are many benefits to cooperating with a machinery factory.

As for those products, any product you take out is doubly valuable.

The problem of oil raw materials has been solved, and the machinery and equipment are in place. As for chemical reagents, they are manufacturers themselves, and all conditions are met. The test run is about to begin, and we are just waiting for approval from the superiors!

Liu Huaimin told Mr. Xia about the soap production in the chemical factory.

Mr. Xia just nodded in understanding.

In his opinion, it is not a big or difficult task for a chemical factory to produce some soap.

I knew in my heart that whatever it was, it was most likely because the machinery factory wanted to digest it internally and provide some New Year benefits to its employees.

This kind of thing happens all the time.

Telling him is nothing more than a report, and it will be easy to argue if someone asks him about it in the future.

Mr. Xia was not in the mood to pay attention to what the machinery factory was doing.

As Yang Youning said, Mr. Xia's thoughts are all on Northwest and Yanzhou.

No wonder Mr. Xia was upset. He thought this matter would be easy to handle, the local comrades would be happy, and things would go on smoothly.

But I didn’t expect that one location would cause so many troubles.

As I mentioned before about people, after some negotiation, the people from the First Machinery Department cooperated with the Northwest, focusing on their people at first, and then gradually cultivated the backbone of local workers.

This can be regarded as solving the difficulty.

But when it came to site selection, the wrangling began again.

This is like investing in future generations, everyone wants to be under his wing.

Mr. Xia didn't know that the chemical plant was not just trying to make a fuss, but really wanted to become bigger and stronger.

The twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month.

Just as the chemical plant was in full swing and working overtime to prepare for the start of work, the fourth workshop of the machinery plant was the first to receive good news.

Tricycle, assembled.

After Yang Xiaotao solved the design problems of the engine and gearbox, the design and development department of other components was also completed.

As for the frame of the tricycle, Yang Xiaotao took the lead, and it was also handed over to the workshop around the time of his death.

In the past two days, Yang Xiaotao was busy with the chemical plant and forgot about this matter.

When he arrived at the workshop, Yang Xiaotao saw a blue tricycle parked in the open space, with a group of people around him busy installing accessories!

In the workshop, Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin came over first and were looking at the busy workers.

"Don't you want to go take a look?"

Yang Xiaotao moved forward, and Yang Youning was a little unsure. His impression of tricycles had always been that they were small. He was still a little worried about the machinery factory producing such a large tricycle.

Moreover, in Yang Youning’s impression, tractors can be pulled by tricycles, and trucks can travel on the same roads as tricycles.

This tricycle is a bit tasteless.

If Yang Xiaotao hadn't tricked him in the first place, it would be hard to say whether this tricycle could be built.

Yang Xiaotao glanced at the person who installed it, it was Zhou Kui and the others.

"No need, just try again if you make a mistake."

Yang Youning curled his lips, "This car has so many accessories!"

Yang Xiaotao also knows what Yang Youning means!

The accessories Yang Youning mentioned refer to the headlights, turn signals, matching generators, batteries, etc. on the car.

These are all purchased from other brother factories, and some are obtained from Quancheng Automobile Factory.

As for generators and batteries, there are not many domestic factories producing them, and demand exceeds supply.

Moreover, the engines and batteries of this era are no smaller than those of the Dragon Boat Festival.

Later generations have seen too many small batteries, and are speechless about such black and thick ones.

Because of this, Yang Xiaotao's design drawings were changed again and again, and in the end he could only make a choice to match the current reality.

There is no other way, you can’t fix the engine and battery by yourself!

Because of this, Yang Youning was very dissatisfied and blamed Yang Xiaotao for designing the tricycle so well.

Look at this length, with a body of four and a half meters, it almost looks like a small truck.

Look at the height. It's two meters tall, which is higher than a small Jeep.

Look at this style. Compared with the small three-wheelers I looked at earlier, it is taller, more powerful, more domineering, and especially comfortable to look at.

This is a fucking tricycle.

Why do you do so well?

If mass production is really going to happen, how will the production capacity be increased?

If it were like a Red Star tractor, how could there be so many things?

Little did he know that Yang Xiaotao still deleted and deleted everything, including radios and air conditioners.

If Yang Xiaotao hadn't felt that soft power was very important and insisted on doing this, it would have been enough to follow Yang Youning's temperament and build a bicycle frame!

"After the new year, it will be after the new year, there is no rush anyway!"

Yang Xiaotao said weakly.

The factory in the northwest is still being selected, and it will probably take another year before the machinery and equipment are ready. At this speed, it is useless for their machinery factory to rush.

"By the way, once it is put into production, can the production keep up?"

He turned to Wang Fa and asked.

"A little difficult!"

Wang Fa hesitated and said, "Let's not talk about other accessories. Let's just talk about the ones we can produce."

"We can produce engines, gearboxes, etc., but the body of this car is welded by workers manually, so it can't be done very quickly!"

"And orders for Red Star tractors remain high right now. If too many manpower are deployed, production will be affected!"

Wang Fa is worried that once the tricycle is put into production, it will inevitably reduce the production capacity of Red Star Tractor.

And there is a large tractor behind it. Depending on the progress, it will only be a year or two ago.

Once these two are put into production, their four workshops, not to mention three workshops, will be really busy.

"Let's take a look at the situation first. These tricycles and large tractors are prepared for export. It depends on the other party's choice."

Yang Xiaotao also knows that workshop production capacity is a big problem, but it is a bit difficult to expand right now.

Yang Youning on the side also knew this and could only take one step at a time.
