Scholars in the courtyard

Evening.

Yang Xiaotao drove back to the courtyard.

As for the matter of the second factory, the chief will consider it.

He just needs to wait for the result.

He talked to Director Hong, and the other party had no objection to the arrangement.

Since it was the chief's intention, it should not be difficult for the people who came to cooperate.

They just said so, but the specific details would have to wait until they met and got along.

Back to the courtyard.

Ran Qiuye did not come back, so Yang Xiaotao prepared to eat and rest alone.

As for Duanwu and the others, they are still at Ran's house.

If Yang Xiaotao does not go to pick them up, they probably won't come back tonight.

"Master, when are we going to repair the house?"

After eating two packs of instant noodles, Yang Xiaotao read a book in the study.

Xiaowei popped up from the table next to her, and her voice was actually switched to Lou Xiaoe's.

Yang Xiaotao replied without even looking up, "Wait a minute, let's talk about it after the first month of the lunar year."

"How can you do this in the first month of the lunar year!"

"Oh, oh!"

Xiao Wei shook her head in boredom. Now, in addition to controlling her clone to shuttle around in the greenhouse during the day, she would chat with Yang Xiaotao at night to relieve her boredom.

Of course, most of the time she talked and Yang Xiaotao listened.

"Wait until the first month of the lunar year, buy some paint, wood boards and so on, and the rest will be left to you!"

Yang Xiaotao didn't want to discourage the little guy's enthusiasm, so he gave the answer.

Ever since he took Sha Zhu's house, Yang Xiaotao has been thinking about finding time to repair the house.

If no one lives in it for a long time, the house will inevitably become abandoned.

Although it can barely be lived in after the renovation before the New Year, it still needs to be renovated if people want to live in it in the future.

Otherwise, who will you find if the house collapses?

Among them, the roof, walls, doors and windows, etc., all need to be repaired, and it is Xiao Wei who does this.

As for other tables, beds, cabinets, etc., Yang Xiaotao plans to buy them when he has time.

Anyway, he knows how to do carpentry work and has ready-made tools. As long as he buys wood and boards, he can make it himself.

If he really doesn't have time, he can ask Zhou Shenghong to find a few carpenters to help him.

He will pay for it himself when the time comes.

"Okay, master!"

"Speak properly!"

"How can you speak!"

The voice turned out to be Qin Huairu, and Yang Xiaotao's face changed, "Go away, don't learn from your example!"

Xiaowei flew out pitifully and lay in Wangwang's hair, feeling unhappy.

He family.

Since he went to the street office after the New Year to transfer the house to his name, the original Jia family has now become the He family.

Of course, they say it is the He family to the outside world, but they know their own business.

Sha Zhu and Yi Zhonghai all know that the house was finally signed by Qin Huairu.

At first, Sha Zhu was a little unhappy.

As the head of the family, he earns money to support the whole family, so he must be the owner of the house.

But Qin Huairu said that husband and wife are one, and this is the Jia family's house, which will be left to Xiao Huaihua in the future. Sha Zhu felt embarrassed to snatch the child's things.

Over time, these few days passed, and he got used to it.

Anyway, this family still has to rely on him.

"Huairu, this house needs to be tidied up."

"I see it's the first month of the year, let's find a few people to tidy it up."

Sha Zhu lay on the bed, looking up at the roof, and the spider webs hanging on the straw swayed under the light.

"Why spend that money, we can just clean it up ourselves."

"That's how we got by before, there's no need."

Qin Huairu sat by the sewing machine, sewing fabric.

For this house, she felt that it was good now.

Just like before, there was a sense of familiarity.

"You don't know this, right? This house hasn't seen fire for a long time, who knows what kind of bugs there are in the house."

Sha Zhu still insisted, mainly because he wanted to separate a single room from the house, so that when Xiao Dang Huaihua grows up, she will also have a separate space.

He and Qin Huairu can also sleep together.

"Why should we be afraid of bugs? We live in the countryside, and we have seen all kinds of bugs!"

"If we have that money, we might as well save it."

Qin Huairu raised the needle, cut the silk thread with scissors, and then found a piece of cloth to piece it together.

Sha Zhu sighed in his heart after hearing this. Is it so easy to save money?

Speaking of money, the pressure on him is doubled!

Not to mention the money used by this family, there are two people, an old man and an old woman, and Qin Jingru has to give some every month.

Alas!

I didn't feel pressure before?

I remembered the days in the steel mill. At that time, I spent 37.5 yuan a month, one person spent, and there was a lunch box brought by the kitchen...

I didn't feel tired in those days.

But now, how come it has come to this?

Sha Zhu lay on the bed, listening to the sound of the sewing machine beside his ear, and gradually fell asleep.

Machinery factory, training ground.

Liang Zuoxin got up from the chair and dealt with the training arrangements at hand, so he had time to move his body.

After walking two steps in the office, his eyes fell on the night vision goggles beside him.

Thinking of what Yang Xiaotao said, and looking at the dark night outside the window, he felt something in his heart, and then he picked up the night vision goggles and walked out.

The next day, when Yang Xiaotao came to the office, Liang Zuoxin had been waiting in the room with a pair of panda eyes, which scared Yang Xiaotao.

"I say, Lao Liang, what have you done? Such heavy dark circles under your eyes, is this, overindulgence?"

Yang Xiaotao looked at it for a while and said jokingly.

Liang Zuoxin ignored him and pointed to the night vision goggles on the table beside him.

"Do you still have this thing?"

Yang Xiaotao looked back and immediately understood what was going on.

"This is a small one. I asked them to study a large one that can be placed on armored vehicles and tanks."

"If we have to make the big one, we have to make the small one too."

Liang Zuoxin stood up and pointed outside and said, "I was standing here last night and could actually see the guards at the gate with this."

"You said, with this, wouldn't it be clear what was going on at night?"

In addition to excitement, Liang Zuoxin's face also had an unspeakable bitterness.

He finally understood why the sharpshooters who came back rarely talked about the battlefield.

"This should work!"

Yang Xiaotao nodded in agreement when he saw Liang Zuoxin so determined.

"I'll call the machine repair factory later and ask them to make a few small ones."

"That's good!"

"Our security department still needs to equip this thing. Who knows when it will be used!"

After that, Liang Zuoxin picked up the night vision device on the table and walked towards the training base.

Seeing Liang Zuoxin leave, Yang Xiaotao returned to the helper's desk and started a day's work.

Before lunch, the phone on the table suddenly rang.

"Hello, I'm Yang Xiaotao!"

"Xiaotao, just right, I'm looking for you!"

"Uh..."

Yang Xiaotao knew who it was as soon as he heard the voice on the phone.

"Commander, isn't the number you called mine?"

Wang Lao was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, as if he had been exposed for doing something bad, and he didn't know whether he would blush or not.

However, before Yang Xiaotao could continue to speak, Wang Lao's voice continued to come from the phone.

"Of course I know it's yours!"

"Boy, I'm looking for you this time."

"Commander! Are we okay?"

Yang Xiaotao heard the tone was a bit aggressive, and hurriedly asked in a low voice, but in his heart he was recalling that he had no "grudges" with the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building recently!

"Nothing? Ha, then we have to talk it over!"

On the phone, Wang Lao's voice was a little more serious, which made Yang Xiaotao even more suspicious of what he had done wrong.

"First, did you get my permission to send something to us?"

"Do you know how big of a problem this has caused us? It has caused a very profound negative impact, do you know that?"

"No, chief, we are doing this for revolutionary friendship, and our comrades have helped us, and we are grateful in our hearts!"

When Yang Xiaotao heard this, he immediately refuted.

"Haha, you have become the good guy, how can we live in the future!"

Old Wang insisted on this matter and continued, "Because of this, our people are going to your machinery factory, what do you say we should do!"

"Ah?"

This time Yang Xiaotao was really shocked.

At the beginning, he did have this idea. With so many talents, it would be enough if he could dig one of them.

It's just that his idea was still in its infancy, and he didn't say it.

Could it be that someone really responded positively?

"What?"

"The superior called me today and said that he wanted my people to go to your place. Do you think you dug this person out?"

"No, Chief, I swear to God, how can I dig your people out with my small body?"

"You really wronged me!"

"Don't come on, Yang Xiaotao, I have seen clearly that you are not honest at all, and you are trying to get benefits."

Wang Laojiang raised his voice, as if he was just that kind of person.

"No, I didn't!"

Yang Xiaotao just felt wronged in his heart, he really didn't do anything!

"Not yet, our Director Li Chengjun is going to be the director of your second factory, what do you think is going on?"

"Ah?!!"

Yang Xiaotao was completely shocked.

Then he thought that this must be the arrangement of the chief.

However, he really didn't expect that Uncle Li, who looked ordinary, actually had such a background?

But thinking that he could serve as the director of logistics in such an important department of the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building, he must be an extraordinary person.

Sure enough, no one can look down on people who can sit in a high position.

There may be a big boss behind him.

Thinking of this, Yang Xiaotao laughed immediately.

"Ah, haha, haha."

"Director Li, that, that is indeed embarrassing. Haha."

Yang Xiaotao laughed, and Wang Lao rolled his eyes.

He looked at Li Chengjun in the office, who shook his head helplessly.

He received a secret call last night, and Wang Lao also received the notice.

The reason why he called Yang Xiaotao at this time was purely Wang Lao's personal intention.

Well, he just wanted benefits.

As for whether he could get it, Li Chengjun looked at Ran's father who was holding a cup and drinking water from time to time, and Qian Lao who was calm and composed, and felt that it was a bit unkind.

In front of them, isn't this bullying Yang Xiaotao's youth?

"That's it?"

Yang Xiaotao knew when he heard this that the blood would be drawn today.

"One Shining Morning Star!"

"You are sending away beggars. Besides, Director Li is worth this much when you are here?"

Old Wang said disdainfully. Yang Xiaotao took a breath of cold air. How should he respond to this?

If he said less, what would Director Li think if he knew about it?

"Then how much is Director Li worth?"

"At least..."

Just as Old Wang was about to say it, he immediately realized what Yang Xiaotao meant.

It's not good to say too much or too little!

Little fox!

"I don't know. You can estimate it yourself!"

"What about the two?"

"If you say so, then there is no room for negotiation?"

"Three Shining Morning Stars!"

"Go away, three Morning Stars!"

"No, one Morning Star! I have to do it myself!"

...

In the next ten minutes, the two of them said three things and one thing, but in the end Yang Xiaotao was the better and insisted on his decision, and the result was one Morning Star machine tool and a new director.

Of course, this machine tool was equivalent to free money.
