Scholars in the courtyard

The next day, the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

Early in the morning, Yang Xiaotao heard the horn sounding from the street office at the door, so he picked up the quilt and covered his head.

After dinner last night, Yang Xiaotao took a bath and then fell asleep with Ran Qiuye in his arms.

The two did not act excessively, but hugged each other and fell asleep calmly.

Ran Qiuye lay in Yang Xiaotao's arms, feeling safe and relaxed.

The two of them finally had a peaceful sleep.

"Get up, still sleeping!"

Ran Qiuye made breakfast and came over to sit and dress for the Dragon Boat Festival. The little guy was lying between the two sisters, touching this one and touching that one.

After a few moments, the third child started crying.

"What's the speaker saying outside?"

Yang Xiaotao opened the quilt and asked.

"The sub-district office said that soap has been distributed in the street, and asked each compound to receive one and be responsible for disinfection!"

Ran Qiuye said and Yang Xiaotao nodded.

It seems that the chemical factory is not idle these days!

After getting up and having breakfast, Yang Xiaotao drove Lao Dao to work in the machinery factory.

We still don’t know what’s going on with Yang Youning and the others. We still have to take care of them here at the machinery factory, and we can’t lose people.

The car was driving on the road, and there were many more pedestrians than yesterday.

Obviously, the machinery factory took the lead in lifting the ban, giving many factories confidence.

When he came to the machinery factory, Yang Xiaotao first went to the ward area to check. Now the remaining people are all in good condition. It is estimated that they can go home with some anti-inflammatory drugs.

As for preventive measures, the machine shop is still spraying soapy water everywhere.

As long as you don't go to high-risk areas and stay home honestly, there won't be any problems.

Then I walked around the various workshops. The four workshop directors, except for Zhan Lei from the third workshop who was still in the hospital and had not returned, the other three were on duty and were now organizing manpower to resume work and production.

As for the steel plant, Guan Zhiyong sent news that the steel plant was resuming work.

Production will be completed soon, and the required raw materials are also being negotiated with the downstream.

For this reason, Guan Zhiyong used the inventory of the steel factory and distributed a lot of soap.

However, the effect is obvious and the supply to steel plants will not be cut off.

In addition, the 100-ton open-hearth furnace renovation plan planned years ago will start today.

Because An Zhongsheng wanted to participate in the establishment of Yanzhou Iron and Steel Plant, Zhang Hongxian and Li Junming were the ones taking the lead this time.

Yang Xiaotao also knows that people need to be tempered, and only in this way can they become talents.

Moreover, he will also need someone to take charge of his role in the future.

Yang Xiaotao did not modify the plan submitted by Guan Zhiyong and directly agreed.

At the machine repair shop, Ding Xiangjun also received news that work would resume today.

However, they are now mainly auto repair shops and repair stations established here and there.

For the safety of personnel, Ding Xiangjun directly distributed five bars of soap to every place, regardless of whether there was influenza in the area. This move made the pit area more popular.

Other branch factories and lumber factories also resumed production under the leadership of Sun Guo and Zhou Shenghong.

Yang Xiaotao didn't bother with the rest of the chemical plant.

Nowadays, the chemical plant is a department under the direct control of the First Machinery Department. With Mr. Xia to worry about and Xu Yuanshan busy at work, he doesn't want to "cause trouble."

Wouldn't it be better to stay in the office, read books, draw pictures, and earn some credits?

So, Yang Xiaotao took out the drawings of the rice cooker from the space and laid them out on the table.

The functions of the rice cooker rewarded by this system have reached the level of the 1970s and 1980s. What Yang Xiaotao has to do now is to change or eliminate the 'technology' that has not yet appeared in it.

Of course, Yang Xiaotao only understood the domestic industrial situation from the production status of Feiying pressure cooker. He was still not sure about some aspects, and the given goals may require downstream factories to overcome difficulties.

This can also be regarded as a disguised way to boost the domestic infrastructure construction industry.

I believe that those factories that have been 'honed' by Feiying pressure cookers will easily accept this task.

I simply looked through the drawings provided by the system, picked and selected, and soon had my goal.

So, Yang Xiaotao leaned on the desk and started drawing.

During this period, Lou Xiaoe came in several times, and then went out to deal with the accumulated things.

Every time she came in and saw Yang Xiaotao's serious look, Lou Xiao'e would lower her steps. She could tell that Yang Xiaotao was designing something again.

Every time this happens, it means a new product is about to be born.

Lou Xiao'e didn't dare to disturb.

snap

The door was pushed open.

Just as Yang Xiaotao was finishing the rice cooker drawings and waiting for the system prompts, he heard the sound of pushing the door open.

At first, Yang Xiaotao thought that Lou Xiao'e didn't take it seriously and used a pencil to modify the parameters on the drawing. But when he heard the footsteps approaching, he felt something was wrong, the voice was wrong, and there were other people.

Put down the drawing and look up.

I saw an old man in a military coat walking in quickly, followed by a short-haired woman wearing glasses, and another person, who was opening the door to welcome the two of them, that was Zhao Chuanjun.

"Yang Xiaotao, right?"

Suddenly, the old man came forward in two or three steps.

Yang Xiaotao stood up quickly. Before he could say anything, the old man spoke again, "You can do it. After all these years, you are still the first to hang up on me in person."

"Have young people forgotten how to respect the elderly and love the young? Huh?"

The old man spoke with great momentum, and the murderous aura in his body was like a sword, spear, axe, and halberd, charging towards Yang Xiaotao.

Faced with the old man's momentum, Yang Xiaotao did not back down and mobilized his own momentum to fight against him.

Although not as energetic as the old man, he can still hold on.

"Okay! Hahaha"

The next moment, seeing Yang Xiaotao not flinching but fighting forward bravely, the old man immediately laughed, but with the laughter, the murderous aura became more intense.

At this time, Yang Xiaotao finally understood the gap between him and the old man.

This is not a level at all.

Just when Yang Xiaotao was about to lose it, the old man's momentum dropped.

"That's right, that's right. No wonder you dare to hang up on me. You have the guts and courage."

As he said that, the old man smiled happily again, which confused Yang Xiaotao.

However, after hearing what the old man said, it seemed that the time when he hung up the phone was probably the call in the middle of the night.

Thinking of this, he looked at the two people behind the old man, and finally settled on Zhao Chuanjun's face.

Logically speaking, Zhao Chuanjun is not needed at all for this kind of pick-up, right?

What's more, someone came from the factory, why didn't you tell him?

There is only one explanation, this old man broke in.

And who did Zhao Chuanjun dare not stop?

There is only one answer.

"Hello, Chief. Thank you for the compliment, Chief."

The old man grinned even more, "Yes, he has a pretty good head. If he doesn't die on the battlefield, he will definitely become an official when he comes down."

Yang Xiaotao could only accept the old man's compliments humbly.

Seeing that the relationship between the two had eased, the woman wearing glasses walked forward slowly and said, "Hello, Comrade Yang Xiaotao."

"I am Ji Xiang, Director Ji, who contacted you earlier."

"Hello, Director Ji. I didn't expect you to come."

Yang Xiaotao had already made a judgment in his heart, and now it was confirmed.

"Yeah, I didn't expect that the comrades from the Machinery Factory who helped us a lot were so young."

"Please sit down, please sit down quickly."

Yang Xiaotao then greeted the two of them to sit down quickly, with Zhao Chuanjun accompanying them.

"Chief, Director Ji, are you two here this time?"

Yang Xiaotao personally made tea and poured water for the two of them, and then started asking.

Faced with the old man's temperament, it is not beautiful to be convoluted, and directness is the most satisfactory.

Sure enough, the old man picked up the jar and took a sip, "Director Ji is here to take a look this time, and I'm accompanying him."

Yang Xiaotao looked at Director Ji.

"That's it. When we come this time, we first come to thank the comrades in the machinery factory. Without your efforts, we would not be able to do this this time."

As he spoke, he glanced at the old man, who nodded silently.

"We, the people of Shibalipo, still haven't been able to complete our mission."

"Director Ji, you are being polite. We are all serving the people, regardless of each other."

Director Ji smiled.

"The second thing is that I heard that your machinery factory performed best during this epidemic and was the first factory to be unblocked. I want to come and take a look, learn from it, summarize some experiences, and make an epidemic prevention report."

Yang Xiaotao slapped his thigh and said, "Director Ji, I have to say that our ideas are very similar this time."

"So, your machinery factory is also summing up experience?"

Yang Xiaotao nodded, and then shouted to the door, "Someone, come and find Station Master Hu."

"Know."

A voice came from the corridor, and Yang Xiaotao didn't know who it was. Anyway, someone just agreed.

Ten minutes later, stationmaster Hu ran in from outside.

"Here, let me introduce you. This is Station Manager Hu from the medical station of our machinery factory."

"This is one of the people in charge of this epidemic, Director Ji."

The two briefly shook hands when they met, and then Yang Xiaotao mentioned the epidemic prevention regulations just mentioned. Stationmaster Hu immediately took out the unfinished 'semi-finished product', put it on the table and began to explain.

Yang Xiaotao handed over the battlefield to the two of them, and then he and Zhao Chuanjun accompanied the old man on a tour of the factory.

"Your machine shop is amazing. You can make this engine."

Several people came to the workshop and looked at the busy workers, and the old man couldn't help but sigh.

"Such a big tractor, if modified, it can pull a cannon."

Looking at the large tractor that had just been made, the old man went up to play with it, touching the steering wheel and slapping the carriage, making a snapping sound.

Zhao Chuanjun next to him explained to Yang Xiaotao at this time.

The old man was Zhao Chuanjun's former superior, and he was under his command before he retired from the army.

This time the old man came directly to the gate and said nothing when he saw him. He came in directly and he didn't dare to stop him.

Yang Xiaotao knew Zhao Chuanjun's difficulties, but it didn't mean that it was over. If everyone broke into the machinery factory based on their identity in the future, it would be fine.

You have to find a chance to talk to Zhao Chuanjun when you get back. The rules are the rules.

In ancient times, emperors would be stopped when they went to the military camp.

Although this is not Xiliu Camp, there are still many secrets in it.

However, this time it is a reminder.

After all, what we have to face next is an era of chaos.

His eyes turned to the old man again. At this moment, the old man was communicating enthusiastically with the workers, asking about the condition of the tractor from time to time.

I also knew that this was just made by a machinery factory. In order to adapt to the export requirements of the northwest franchise countries, I was very satisfied.

Seeing that the old man liked it so much, he explained on the side, "Chief, this tractor uses a two-cylinder diesel engine with a power of fifty horsepower and a several-ton tow gun. It can easily pull it and run."

"You may not think that the speed of this tractor is comparable to that of a truck, but it can climb a hill much better than an ordinary car."

"Especially when the road is difficult to navigate, look at these two big wheels. The smaller ones can go over the potholes directly, and the larger ones can climb up slowly."

"And look at this truck, it's quite spacious. Don't you have any ideas?"

The old man frowned, "What do you think? Don't do charades, kid. Just tell me."

"Bazooka."

Snapped

The old man's hand was very strong and he slapped Yang Xiaotao directly on the shoulder. The sound was so loud that even Zhao Chuanjun shook his shoulders.

But Yang Xiaotao, who took this blow, acted as if nothing was wrong.

"You kid, what are you thinking?"

He jumped on the truck body and said, "Here, this can completely install a set of 107s. The extra space can also be used to store ammunition."

At this moment, the old man imagined driving the tractor on the mountain and stopping, then firing twelve 107 rounds, then running down the mountain, reloading, and attacking again.

"Haha, do you have any extra cars? How about giving us a few?"

The old man jumped out of the car and spoke seriously to Yang Xiaotao.

"Since the chief likes it, we have to send it to you. You can tell us a place later, and we will send it to you as soon as it is produced."

"Okay, I'll contact you later."

"By the way, do you know how to modify it?"

"Are you talking about improper modification?"

"Haha, I just like informal modifications."

The two were chatting and laughing, but Yang Xiaotao shook his head, "We are the First Machinery Department, a civilian machinery, and we do not engage in improper modifications."

"Tsk, when did Huang Daya pass by?"

The old man smiled and then looked at the tricycle again.

"This car is not bad. Your machinery factory should be renamed as an automobile factory in the future."

Yang Xiaotao shook his head, "We are a machinery factory, we only produce tractors part-time."
