Scholars in the courtyard

"Oh my, this guy is really looking for food."

While the others were still silent, Mr. Qin shouted out, "When this guy told us, he was very conservative, with a success rate of 70% to 80%, and he pretended to be afraid of failure. It’s like the real thing.”

"When I face you two this time, things suddenly change."

Then he looked at a few people and explained, "I have been watching it at the machine factory during this period. I don't think what this guy said is bragging. This engine is not bad in the league, let alone in China."

"But this guy was still acting for me. Sometimes he was dawdling, and sometimes he said he was taking care of other people's emotions. Now he's fine, and he won't tell me the truth."

After hearing this, Yang Xiaotao immediately retorted, "Chief, you have wronged me. We have an iron-clad revolutionary friendship. Besides, we haven't even started pretending yet."

"It's almost done now, so I'm naturally more confident."

Mr. Qin curled his lips after hearing this, "I believe you are a ghost, you just know how to fool me, an honest person."

"Do you know how much this guy asked for? The wealth I saved so easily was robbed by this guy again."

"Being robbed? That's a big deal."

Mr. Qin nodded immediately after hearing this, but the next second he felt something was wrong with the voice. This was not what a few people said.

Then everyone stood up and saw an old man in a black coat walking in under the escort of Tong Xiaolong, followed by Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning.

"Chief."

"Hello, Chief."

"It's coming!"

Several people got busy to say hello.

The old man walked directly to the stove, looked at a few people and said with a smile, "I saw your car when I came in."

"I didn't expect that you are all waiting here."

The uncle crushed the cigarette and put the rest in his pocket.

"We've been here for a while. I heard something was going to be built here, so we came over to take a look."

The uncle explained on the side, and everyone quickly made room for the old man to sit down.

The old man warmed his hands, chatted with a few people, and finally looked at the big guys assembling not far away, and then asked Yang Xiaotao, "How about this, are you sure about it this time?"

After saying this, several people looked a little strange, but none of them spoke.

Yang Xiaotao opened his mouth and thought of what he just said. Isn't it inappropriate to say it at this time?

But if it is inconsistent, then the impression among the leaders will be greatly reduced.

It's okay to just be clever and make a joke.

If you waver on things and play both sides, it won't be a good impression.

Thinking of this, Yang Xiaotao said what he said before.

"Chief, this engine of ours"

"You mean, it's not worse than those in the Alliance?"

After hearing Yang Xiaotao's words, the old man immediately became serious.

Yang Xiaotao nodded, "At least according to the requirements on the design drawing, it should be like this."

The old man was silent for a moment, then got up and walked towards the engine not far away.

People around him immediately followed.

Yang Xiaotao also followed.

Arriving at the engine, the old man looked at the half-assembled engine and stretched out his hand to touch the cold metal.

He has also seen the engine and knows a little bit about it, but when he looks at the engine in front of him, compared with the one in his impression, it is still much different.

"Is this what you designed?"

Yang Xiaotao nodded aside, "Yes, I designed it myself."

The old man opened his mouth and wanted to ask Yang Xiaotao how he came up with it.

Without someone's guidance and some experience, you can't make this thing just by relying on your imagination.

But when the words came to my lips, I couldn't ask.

Because this guy had no one to teach him about the original steam engine and the original single-cylinder diesel engine.

Everything is self-taught.

Self-study.

Everyone has this ability, but Yang Xiaotao is particularly outstanding.

The old man didn't speak, just looked.

Others also stared at this five-meter-long big guy, and they were all shocked.

"Old Qin, how big was your Luanfeng back then?"

Mr. Huang asked from the side, Mr. Qin shook his head, "No, it's not that big."

"The one we copied is only over four meters long, one size smaller than this one."

Mr. Qin looked at the semi-finished product in front of him and sighed with emotion. He had been in the machinery factory for so long, and this was the first time he saw it like this.

"If it's so big, wouldn't it be more powerful?"

Mr. Huang asked, Mr. Qin nodded.

Then he looked at Yang Xiaotao in front, "What are these basic parameters?"

"The entire engine is 5,000 millimeters long. If it is added, it can be a little longer."

"Maximum diameter 888 mm"

Yang Xiaotao introduced the basic data of the engine, and then introduced the components inside.

"This is the fuel system, where aviation fuel comes in and ignites in the combustion chamber, which is the pressurized combustion chamber."

"This is the starting system, the cooling system and the anti-icing system. When the aircraft flies to an altitude of 10,000 meters, the temperature will drop rapidly, which requires the engine to have a good anti-icing system."

"In addition to these major systems, there are also smaller linkages, such as transmissions that drive engines and aircraft accessories."

Yang Xiaotao was explaining at the side, and everyone fell into deep thought while listening.

Although they don't know much about many things.

But Yang Xiaotao's ability to say this means that he has considered these situations.

It means that what Yang Xiaotao said before was not bragging.

This guy really thought a lot.

After Yang Xiaotao finished his introduction, the old man had a smile on his face.

Regardless of whether what Yang Xiaotao said was true or not, he could be sure that this engine was really good.

As long as the experiment was successful, it would be a good engine.

"When will it be installed?"

The old man walked around, then looked at the parts placed on the ground and asked casually.

Yang Xiaotao looked back at the remaining parts on the ground, and replied, "It can be done in one day tomorrow, and it can be pulled for experiment the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll wait for your good news!"

The old man said seriously, then looked at Liu Daming and other workers in the machinery factory, stepped forward to meet and greet them cordially, and everyone was excited.     After a passionate speech, one by one shook the old man's hand, wishing to immediately promise to make this engine.

After the old man left, the uncle and several others also left.

Yang Xiaotao and everyone saw him off at the door of the warehouse, and then returned to the warehouse.

"Old Yang, did I say too much just now?"

Yang Xiaotao looked at Yang Youning who was still grinning, and asked.

"A lot? Not much."

"As long as you make this thing, no one will dare to say no even if you say more."

Yang Youning said affirmatively, and then looked at the engine behind him.

"By the way, we really have to design the plane ourselves."

Yang Xiaotao nodded, "You don't know the situation in China yet. The plane and the engine are produced together. It's like this when they are designed, matching."

"We have never had a matching plane, so we have to do this ourselves in the end."

Yang Youning nodded after listening, "You make sense."

"Then where is the person I asked you to find?"

Yang Youning showed an embarrassment, "He is still there, he has been snatched away by someone."

"This is a technical talent, an industrial worker, they are all in high demand."

"In other words, you can't find him."

After Yang Xiaotao asked, Yang Youning nodded immediately, and then said, "I will go back and look for it again."

"Also, didn't you say that Mr. Chen also agreed, he will help."

"I just said that he will help, but not necessarily in this way."

Yang Youning suddenly realized that this matter might fall on Mr. Qin.

After all, they are the logistics department, and they have more ways.

"If it doesn't work, I'll go back to Shengjing and recruit a few people from the aircraft factory."

As soon as Yang Youning finished speaking, Yang Xiaotao immediately became energetic and patted Yang Youning on the shoulder, "Old Yang, I think this thing can be done."

The two of them showed a treacherous look.

"Old Chen, do you mean to let them design the aircraft themselves?"

"Is this appropriate?"

The uncle took the cigarette that Yang Xiaotao gave him and put it under his nose to smell it from time to time.

"I do have this plan."

Old Chen hummed, "This is the only way."

"Such a good engine can't be thrown into the warehouse to gather dust."

"There are not many domestic companies that can produce aircraft now, and the existing ones also have their own tasks. If the Third Ministry of Machine Building succeeds, Shengjing Aircraft Factory will have to fully cooperate to improve production."

"Who will cooperate with the machinery factory?"

"So, I plan to give them an aircraft factory and let them do it themselves."

At this point, Old Chen suddenly laughed, "Anyway, this guy can do it, and with the stage of the machinery factory, maybe he can really do it."

Uncle also laughed when he heard it, "This is a good idea."

"Maybe, it will give us an unexpected surprise!"

As the two said, they both smiled knowingly.

Machinery factory.

Yang Xiaotao didn't stay in the warehouse for long after seeing everyone off.

Although there was a stove in it, it was still cold, not as warm as the office.

Of course, he didn't go back to the office to be lazy, but to deal with other things.

Lou Xiao'e has said it more than once, and the documents on the table are piled up like a mountain.

This is the result of Yang Youning sharing most of the work.

"We have to go to the steel plant!"

Looking at the report sent by Guan Zhiyong, Yang Xiaotao was a little scratching his head.

Steel production has reached saturation, but the demand from the machinery plant is increasing.

In the past, we could get some steel from other places, and the First Ministry of Machinery would also share some.

But now, all regions are developing rapidly, the demand for steel has increased sharply, and the machinery plant is also under pressure.

"We have to expand the northwest, and then we should give back!"

Yang Xiaotao muttered to himself, and then put the materials aside.

Then he picked up the documents sent by Liu Xiangdong.

Regarding the aiming system studied by Liu Xiangdong, he did not manage it after finalizing it.

Now that the materials are sent, does it mean that they have been made?

Yang Xiaotao flipped through the information and looked at it, and then frowned.

Sure enough, research has never been an easy thing.

Especially this kind of research with high scientific and technological skills.

As for this report, the main purpose is to ask for money and materials.

Well, this kind of thing really needs his approval.

I guess Yang Youning would be scratching his head after seeing this.

Yang Xiaotao thought to himself, but he didn't hesitate. This matter has been discussed with his superiors. Although he is not sure whether his superiors still remember it, what if?

What if someone remembers this matter one day and asks about it and finds out that it has not been done? What does that mean? It means that the ability is not good enough, and the impression score will be discounted.

As for the reason, people often focus on the results!

Approved immediately.

Then put it aside and read another document.

At the same time, in the workshop of the Third Machine Department, Director Zheng looked at the finished engine with a relieved look on his face.

"Director, it's done!"

An engineer ran over, also excited.

After they heard about the machinery factory, they started working overtime to try to make it one step ahead of the machinery factory.

Although it's only one day earlier, the meaning is different. It means that their Third Machine Department made it first.

Reputation is very important!

"Let the comrades persist, this time it must be successful!"

"I'll apply for everyone, one bicycle per person!"

Zheng Shuangyan gritted his teeth and said, he heard that Mr. Qin painted a big pie for the people in the machinery factory.

In this case, their Third Machine Department can't compete, otherwise what do the workers think?

So, the pie of bicycles was also thrown out by Zheng Shuangyan.

Of course, whether the bicycles can be collected in the end depends on the final result.
