Scholars in the courtyard

The old man just glanced at Mr. Wang, then walked aside and pulled up a chair and sat between Mr. Huang and Mr. Zhang.

"Squad leader Zhang, long time no see."

Mr. Zhang smiled and nodded, "Yes, the last time we sat together for a drink was when we were conferring titles. In a blink of an eye, it has been ten years."

"Yes, we haven't seen each other for ten years, but you are still so sharp."

Mr. Zhang shook his head, "I can't do it anymore, I'm getting old."

Mr. Zhang smiled and then greeted Mr. Qin and Mr. Huang.

While talking, Mr. Huang found someone and added a pair of wine chopsticks.

Mr. Wang, who was caught in the act, also came to his senses and put down his wine glass, "Zhang Tietou, we are drinking. What's the big deal if you come here uninvited?"

"What's the matter? Haha."

"Of course I'm looking for people who say bad things about me behind my back."

"Tch, I'm telling the truth."

"Hmph, be stubborn."

The two bickered with each other for a while, then picked up the wine glasses and started drinking.

All said and done, the friendship between the two is still very deep.

"Lao Zhang, you didn't even say hello when you came this time, so we could wait for you."

Mr. Huang said on the side, Mr. Zhang smiled freely after hearing this, "Old Huang, it seems that you haven't got the news yet."

"News? What news?"

Everyone was shocked, and then they saw Mr. Zhang take out a piece of handwritten paper from his pocket, "I copied this, take a look."

Mr. Huang took it and looked at it, then his eyes widened, "Is this true?"

Mr. Qin, who was beside him, leaned over to take a look, and immediately showed an incredible expression.

Mr. Huang handed the note to Mr. Zhang, and Mr. Wang stepped forward to look at it. Both of them looked surprised.

"It's true. All the captives have entered the port."

"I guess you guys were drinking here and didn't get the news."

"Now, many people in Sijiu City know it, you guys."

"This wine is really good."

The four of them looked at each other, who knew that so many things would happen to them just by drinking while it was raining.

"Well done."

"Come, let's have a drink for the sailors."

Mr. Qin reacted quickly and immediately picked up the wine glass.

The four of them nodded after listening, then raised their wine glasses and clinked them together, "For the sailors."

The five of them drank it all in one gulp, and then Mr. Huang also reacted, "Old Zhang, you didn't just come here to talk, did you?"

Mr. Zhang shook his head when he heard this and put down his chopsticks. "Old Huang, I'm an upright person, so let's just say it straight."

"This time I was invited by Old Chen from Shanghai Shipyard."

"Old Chen? Which Old Chen?"

"That's Chen Gouzi who lost an arm while trying to save the old leader."

After speaking, several people fell silent, as if they were lost in memories.

"What did Lao Chen say?"

Zhang Ban spoke, and Mr. Zhang turned around, "He wants a lot of engines like those from your machine factory."

Hearing this, Mr. Huang frowned, "Old Zhang, what's going on?"

Mr. Zhang looked around and then told the specific information about the naval battle.

"In other words, this engine plays a big role?"

"Yes, it's much better than imported alliance goods."

"Also, last time we used the double-star one, it was able to run all over the place. This eight-cylinder one is definitely more powerful."

Mr. Zhang said excitedly, "Old Huang, wouldn't it be convenient if you just say something?"

"Old Chen also knows that this is not easy, but the ships over there are waiting."

"Convenient, it must be convenient."

Huang Lao also knew about the engines of the machinery factory, and also knew that Yang Xiaotao went to Shanghai and the machinery factory sent four engines.

He was the one who approved this matter at the beginning, but he didn't expect the effect to be so good.

As a result, the sales of this engine have increased.

However, the machinery factory also cooperates with the automobile factory to produce trucks and produce and design armored vehicles.

These all use eight-cylinder diesel engines.

Judging from Lao Zhang’s tone, it’s a lot.

Machinery factory, can it be done?

"Give it, I will definitely give it."

"But the exact amount remains to be seen."

Mr. Zhang frowned when he heard this, "What do you mean?"

After hearing this, Mr. Huang opened a new bottle of wine and poured it for several people, "Old Zhang, this engine has many uses. There are several companies waiting to see the effect."

"It is estimated that there will be many people in the photo by then."

"The machinery factory hasn't officially started production yet, so it can't be done. Let's give everything to Shanghai."

After saying this, the three people Wang and Lao beside felt sour in their hearts.

If this was left to them, they would definitely agree to it first.

Shanghai shipyard.

Although it falls under the jurisdiction of the Sixth Ministry of Machinery, its special status is that it is a key national support unit.

It can be said that as long as Lao Huang nods and agrees, the amount of tasks will definitely make the machinery factory full. Even the machine department can inject a wave of powerful injections.

But to hear Lao Huang say this, it’s really

A man who is full does not know that a man who is hungry is hungry.

Showing off nakedly.

Mr. Zhang frowned when he heard this, as if he remembered something, "I said that the production of Type 59 has dropped sharply in recent times. It turns out that everyone is thinking about it."

"Old Huang, you have to help me with this matter."

As he spoke, Mr. Zhang raised his wine glass and said sincerely, "Please do this."

Mr. Huang raised his glass and said, "I know."

"By the way, when will they test drive?"

"Tomorrow, there will be a call from the machinery factory. The armored vehicles and trucks will be sent tomorrow. The location is in the western suburbs. You can go and have a look if you are free."

Mr. Zhang nodded, "Okay, I will definitely go take a look tomorrow."

"Let me tell you, last time I relied on this tractor to pull rockets, which allowed me to give Han Xuanfeng an army to relieve his anger."

Several people became interested and asked about it one after another.

The wine table instantly became lively.

Forty-Nine City, steel factory.

Yang Xiaotao looked at the rain falling continuously outside, and then looked back at the people smoking in the room.

"This rain is not over yet."

He walked to Guan Zhiyong, picked up a pack of cigarettes, smoked one and said helplessly.

"Mr. Yang, it won't be long. Such a heavy thunderstorm cannot last."

Guan Zhiyong smiled and was especially polite to Yang Xiaotao.

It’s not clear to outsiders, but as the director of a steel plant, he certainly knows about the situation at the United Star Research Institute.

As for the aluminum alloy, it was Mr. Yang who advocated its implementation in the beginning, and later he relied on his own efforts to provide the materials for everyone to research it.

At first, people at the institute doubted the accuracy of the information, but now facts have shown that the information given by Yang Xiaotao is obviously correct.

It can be used directly without verification.

If some of the supporting facilities of their steel plant hadn't been hindered, this time could have been advanced.

And these are just the research results of Yang Xiaotao alone.

It can be said that one person can defeat the entire institute.

"Let's rain, it will get even hotter after the rain is over."

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, he looked at everyone.

In the room, Lao Dao and An Zhongsheng also looked over.

"I am here to confirm when the aluminum alloy can be officially put into production."

"Once the research is done, it must be implemented as soon as possible. Now the superiors are watching us."

Several people looked at each other, and then Guan Zhiyong said, "Mr. Yang, the steel factory has adjusted its production structure according to demand."

"Now, we have two separate workshops, one dedicated to the production of tungsten alloys, and the other is used to produce aluminum alloys."

"Will it delay the production of other steel?"

Yang Xiaotao said, aluminum alloy and tungsten alloy are important now, but compared to steel, steel still accounts for the majority.

"No problem. We have now converted all boilers into converters, and our production capacity has increased by 300%. As long as there is no shortage of raw materials, we guarantee that we can complete all tasks."

Guan Zhiyong said with assurance, and his words were full of confidence.

"We have already made a purchase request to the machinery factory for the equipment required for aluminum alloy processing. Most of the machines are ordinary and easy to make."

"Only a few machines are still being prepared."

Yang Xiaotao put out the cigarette butt and then said, "If you have any difficulties, just raise them. The R\u0026D Department of the Machinery Factory will provide machines and the equipment will be produced as soon as possible."

"That's great, Lao An, tell Mr. Yang what equipment we need."

After hearing this, An Zhongsheng immediately took out his notebook and said, "Mr. Yang, this is"

Yang Xiaotao looked at the machine for a while. It was not a particularly difficult machine. After confirming it, he nodded and said, "Well, you can talk to the Pang workers and let them be completed first."

"Also, the workers must be arranged well, and a group of excellent employees must be trained to ensure safety while expanding the scale."

"We must maintain quality, quantity, safety, and produce quickly and efficiently."

As Yang Xiaotao said, Guan Zhiyong and others stood up immediately, "Mr. Yang, don't worry, our steel plant will definitely complete the task with quality and quantity."

"Resolutely implement safe production..."

After some assurance, Guan Zhiyong continued to ensure.

There was no way. When I attended the last meeting, Yang Xiaotao's position in the three locations of the machinery factory was basically determined.

It can be said that in terms of overall strength, Yang Xiaotao has become the number one person in the machinery factory.

Why don't you follow up and wait for more information?

What's more, the fact that he can secure his current position is all due to Yang Xiaotao.

Today's steel plants are no better than before.

How many people are staring at this piece of fat.

Yang Xiaotao nodded with satisfaction, then went to the office of the Joint Research Institute and watched a room full of people studying the production process of aluminum alloys.

"Mr. Yang, what were you thinking at the beginning? It's really amazing that this aluminum alloy can do this."

Li Junming came to Yang Xiaotao with a happy face and asked what all the research institutes thought.

Those who had just joined behind him also had expressions of admiration on their faces.

They didn't know much about Yang Xiaotao, or they were more famous than they had seen. Now that they saw that the aluminum alloy was actually made, they all had an illusion of disbelief.

Even old people like Li Lei were very confident when Yang Xiaotao initiated the aluminum alloy project, but they did not expect it to be completed so quickly.

Yang Xiaotao came to the middle of the crowd, "Actually, it's not difficult. As long as everyone reads more, pays more attention to it and works harder when working."

Everyone smiled knowingly after hearing this, knowing that no matter how polite Yang Xiaotao was, they didn't ask any more questions.

"Mr. Yang, this aluminum alloy is made, what is our next project?"

An Zhongsheng next to him asked.

The eyes of the people around him also became enthusiastic.

The research of aluminum alloy this time has not only made the reputation of the United Star Research Institute, but also has continued to receive honors.

There is even more trivial news: all technical personnel who participate in this research will be rewarded.

The exact amount is unclear, but as long as it is there, it is better than nothing.

Besides, their research institute is a research and development department. As long as the test is successful, other matters of expanding the scale and putting it into production will be left to other factories.

Therefore, they also need to return to their duties and continue research.

"Don't worry yet!"

"Let's get through the aluminum alloy first."

Yang Xiaotao waved his hand, mainly because he didn't think about what to do next.

Furthermore, the credits for the sub-skill Steelmaking Mastery are not enough. We will wait until we get enough credits.

Otherwise, just talking about a new project or new direction will only waste the energy of the institute.

It's not that he doesn't believe in the capabilities of the institute, or the enthusiasm of his comrades, it's just that this is the current situation.

A tungsten alloy has kept everyone busy for more than half a year, but there is still no progress. In the end, if it weren't for a bug in the system, there is no guarantee when it will be solved.

In comparison, he only needs to collect the credits and mention the sub-skills, and he has a high chance of acquiring a skill.

This is much more reliable than research institutes that have no clue and start from scratch!

At least with the technology provided by the system, we can guarantee the bottom line and not get nothing.

Everyone had no objection after hearing this.

After all, there is still research on the technology of this aluminum alloy.

After sitting in the research institute for a while, the rain outside had stopped and the air was uncomfortably hot.

Yang Xiaotao looked at the time and saw that it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. He went to the workshop to take a look before preparing to leave.

Before getting on the car, Guan Zhiyong suddenly came to the car and whispered, "Mr. Yang."

"I have something to tell you alone."

After Yang Xiaotao heard this, the two of them walked aside and said, "Old manager, what's the matter?"

"Mr. Yang, this matter is not big or small, but after much thought, I still want to tell you."

"you say."

"Recently, after this aluminum alloy came out, many people have called to inquire and want to cooperate with steel plants to produce aluminum alloy."

“In fact, many people asked about tungsten alloy at the beginning.”

Yang Xiaotao took out a cigarette and the two of them lit it.

"What are they?"

"There are people from our First Machinery Department, there are people from Forty-Nine City, and there are people from local areas."

Yang Xiaotao was silent for a moment, "Did they find you in private?"

"right!"

"what are you thinking?"

A flash of hesitation flashed across Guan Zhiyong's face, but he quickly replied, "I won't agree to any of them without orders from above."

"However, I am afraid of the comrades in the institute."

Yang Xiaotao patted Guan Zhiyong on the shoulder, "You did a good job in this matter."

"There are experts watching over at the research institute, so nothing will happen."

"Also, if anyone asks again in the future, let them come to me directly."

Guan Zhiyong nodded vigorously after hearing this.
