Scholars in the courtyard

After drinking a glass of wine, Mr. Zhou became energetic again.

It was as if the sadness just now was washed away by the wine, and only the sweetness of the wine remained.

Without waiting for everyone to speak, Mr. Zhou picked up the wine bottle and filled it up. Then, under the gaze of everyone, he said to Yang Xiaotao, "Xiao Yang, this glass of wine, I toast you."

As he was about to drink it in one gulp, Yang Xiaotao immediately stood up and stretched out his hand to stop him, "Chief, you are being too polite."

"I'll accompany you."

He picked up the wine glass and clinked it lightly, "I am a junior, I drink first as a respect."

Then he raised his head and drank it.

When Mr. Zhou saw it, he also drank it in one gulp.

"Good, it's great."

Mr. Zhou wiped his mouth and looked at Yang Xiaotao with more appreciation.

"Chief, let's not stand anymore, let's eat quickly, eat."

"Okay, both of you sit down."

But at this time, Jiang Defu stood up and looked at Yang Xiaotao, and everyone knew what was going on.

"Master Jiang, we two shouldn't do this."

Yang Xiaotao smiled bitterly, but Jiang Defu shook his head, "Public is public, private is private, one thing is another."

"This time, on behalf of the comrades, I thank you, thank the comrades in the machinery factory, and thank you everyone."

Yang Xiaotao could only pick up the wine glass and drink it all again.

This way, Zhou Lao and Jiang Defu felt more comfortable.

If they didn't say these words, they would hold it in all night.

"Eat, eat."

"Eating is the most important thing in the world."

"This big bone soup smells delicious, my stomach has been rumbling for a long time."

Mr. Chen called, and everyone laughed.

Then the spoon circulated on the table, Yang Xiaotao picked up the chopsticks and scooped up a rib, and then poured a spoonful of bone soup.

Then he picked up the pancake on the table, broke it open and soaked it in it, and picked up some pickles and put them in front of the plate and ate it in big mouthfuls.

The people around him didn't bother to talk much, they slurped the soup, and sometimes some people added some chili sauce, which made them eat more enthusiastically.

"Xiao Tao, you have made the gas turbine, what are the plans for the next step?"

Old Qin put down the bowl, and then picked up the cake to chew.

Although he had bad teeth, he liked to eat hard rice, biting it bit by bit, and then asked Yang Xiaotao.

"Arrangements? Oh, it has been arranged a long time ago."

Yang Xiaotao put down his chopsticks and picked up the salted duck egg beside him and started to peel it.

"The next time is the plane, which has been arranged."

"I will take you to the R\u0026D department later, they are still designing it there."

Put the salted duck egg on the plate, pick up the chopsticks and pick it up from the middle, pick up half of it, and Old Qin picked up the remaining half.

Old Chen on the side heard it and said, "We must ensure the safety of the plane, and we can't rush for success."

The two nodded.

As for other arrangements, Yang Xiaotao didn't say anything.

The Seventh Ministry of Machine Building is still waiting for the engine. There have been many system bugs during this period. According to my experience, success is not far away.

After that, there is the engine of the helicopter, which should be ranked after the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building.

If there are other plans, there are many.

The titanium-rhenium alloy of the steel plant, the process of this thing has not been fully mastered, and it is just a preliminary attempt at the moment, and the problem of metal rhenium has not been solved.

The research at the pharmaceutical factory is also in the plan. Bovine insulin must be put into production as soon as possible.

The research on anti-inflammatory drugs in the chemical plant is also on the agenda.

And this time, the matter of the Ordnance Research Institute is estimated to be on the agenda for the main battle tank.

And

But these do not need to produce results this year, take your time.

After drinking a few glasses, Mr. Zhou asked about the manufacturing of gas turbines.

"Xiao Yang, how long does it take for your machinery factory to produce one?"

When asked about the gas turbine, Yang Xiaotao put down his chopsticks and said, "Commander, we have no plan for this yet."

"No plan?"

Old Zhou was surprised, "What do you mean? What do you mean by no plan?"

Yang Xiaotao immediately looked at Old Chen beside him.

Old Zhou also looked over, and Old Chen coughed lightly before saying, "The gas turbine is just a separate act of the machinery factory, and there is indeed no production plan."

"What?"

Old Zhou was stunned.

Jiang Defu beside him was also stunned.

It seems that all they said just now is useless.

The Red Star Machinery Factory has no plan to continue production at all.

"What's wrong, are you looking down on our Sixth Machinery Department?"

"You designed the engine for the Seventh, but it's not possible for our Sixth?"

"Old Chen, there's no such thing as you."

Old Zhou's eyes were red, and his breathing was like a bellows with ups and downs in his mood, and his expression was serious.

Jiang Defu widened his eyes and looked incredible.

"Ahem."

"Old Zhou, calm down first and listen to what we have to say."

Seeing that the two people's eyes were red, Old Chen spoke quickly.

Then he looked at Yang Xiaotao, "You are telling the truth."

Yang Xiaotao immediately said, "As long as this gas turbine is useful, we can arrange a plan to manufacture it."

After the two said this, Zhou Lai relaxed and gently put down the cup in his hand.

Yang Xiaotao took a look and secretly said that he was lucky.

These uncles are really true.

"But."

Yang Xiaotao still had something to say. Old Zhou immediately looked up and wanted to hear what Yang Xiaotao said.

"You can also see that the production of this gas turbine is very difficult, even catching up with the turbojet engine."

"Especially because it's so big, the machine tools we use now can't meet the requirements, so we can only rely on a few eighth-level masters to process it."

"According to the current progress, it would be good to be able to make one in a month."

“And this is when other tasks are put on hold.”

There is nothing false about Yang Xiaotao's statement of the current situation, it is just the fact.

There are really not many people who can operate machine tools to manufacture gas turbines.

Zhou Hong, Shen Rong and Chen Chonghan can do it, and he can do it too.

As for others like Liu Daming, Hou Baobao and others, either because of physical reasons or because of their technical skills, they can only be counted as half.

It's difficult to make.

If you want to let workers in a workshop do manufacturing, unless there is a breakthrough in technology, you need to change to better machine tools.

Then there is the improvement of personal skills.

But when it comes to promotion, it doesn't mean that it can be improved by just improving.

More importantly, they are about to develop other projects. How can there be so many people to do it?

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Mr. Zhou immediately frowned.

Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. He knows and understands this.

But I can't accept it.

How could you give up after finally waiting for this opportunity?

No, it’s not to give up, but to seize this opportunity and develop vigorously.

"So I want to give you the design drawing of the gas turbine, and then you can find the relevant factory to produce it."

Yang Xiaotao stated his purpose.

Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning on the side were a little confused at first, but they accepted it calmly when they thought about what their machinery factory was going to do.

Bit off more than you can chew.

They have production capacity.

But it is difficult to complete the task.

After all, that's not a small amount.

Besides, isn’t that the positioning of their Red Star Machinery Factory?

The locomotive takes the lead, rather than treating it as a carriage taking over.

When Yang Xiaotao said these words, Mr. Zhou had not yet responded. A flash of embarrassment flashed across Mr. Qin's face, but he quickly covered it up.

After hearing this, Mr. Zhou originally thought it was feasible. After all, they had many factories under their Sixth Machinery Department.

But seeing the change in Mr. Qin's face, Mr. Zhou immediately became vigilant.

At the same time, I also remembered things from long ago.

At that time, Hongxing Machinery Factory built a machine tool.

Then he handed over the design drawing of the machine tool. What was the result?

How many factories have made it so far?

Once it’s made, it still needs to be assembled.

At that time, Jinling Machine Tool Factory was in great disgrace.

As for the logistics department, I heard that it was also completed with the help of the machinery factory.

And looking at the current production of machine tools, there are indeed a few that can manufacture them across the country, but which one can produce as efficiently as Hongxing Machinery Factory?

And the quality of the production is unmatched.

Their Sixth Machinery Department bought a Venus machine tool from the Jinling Machine Tool Factory. It broke down within half a year of use. They asked the manufacturer to repair it. After more than half a month, they could not find out the cause.

This is a lesson learned from the past and a guide for future events.

It is impossible to go through this road of planning.

Mr. Zhou made his decision after just being silent for a moment.

"In this way, if there are not enough manpower, we will provide it."

Mr. Qin and Mr. Chen looked at Mr. Zhou in surprise. Does this guy know what he is talking about?

Is this still the usual Liu Liu who cries about poverty every day?

When did you become so generous?

Yang Xiaotao was also shocked by Zhou Lai's words.

Is it so easy to talk?

But my original intention was to hand over the drawings to you.

Our machinery factory has only five workshops, so there is really no room.

Moreover, this big thing requires too many resources. The steel plant’s inventory and alloy materials are not enough.

"Chief, you can actually do it yourself."

Yang Xiaotao wanted to persuade him again. After all, he knew what was going on in his factory.

"No, no effort for one thing, two masters for one thing. I believe in the ability of the machinery factory. I'll leave this matter to you."

"Of course, we won't let you suffer."

Mr. Zhou thought for a moment and then said, "In terms of personnel, I will find a way to assign ten eighth-level masters who are good at setting up beds for you."

"I belong to your machine factory. You can use them however you want."

"There are also materials needed for production. We can bear 60% of it, as long as you give me two engines every month."

"We will also issue normal tasks, don't worry about that."

"I will never treat you badly."

Every time Mr. Zhou said something, Liu Huaimin and Liu Huaimin on the side felt relieved.

Yang Xiaotao also didn't expect Mr. Zhou to spend so much money.

Especially the first one, there are ten eighth-level masters. There are not even ten eighth-level masters in their machinery factory.

I had previously asked the Seventh Machinery Department to come to Shen Rong, but I had to pay a huge price.

It's okay now. Mr. Zhou sent ten of them with just one sentence.

In comparison, Mr. Zhou is an honest person.

When it comes to this matter, Yang Xiaotao can't stand it if he doesn't express his position.

So he stood up and said, "Okay, in that case, I will take over this task on behalf of the Red Star Machinery Factory."

"Okay, then we'll wait to receive the gas turbine!"

Mr. Zhou said happily.

As for whether Red Star Machinery Factory can do it, he believes in his own vision.

I also believe in Yang Xiaotao's ability.

Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning looked at each other and smiled.

With such backbone support, we can recruit some people, arrange a few machine tools, and put up the frames, and the sixth workshop can be established.

As for manpower, we can draw some from each workshop, and if that doesn't work, we can find people from the branch factory.

As for machine tools, we can ask the second workshop to work overtime, there will always be some.

The two began to think about the director and organizational structure of the sixth workshop.

After talking about things, everyone continued to eat and drink.

Mr. Zhou even pulled Yang Xiaotao to each table to toast, and Yang Xiaotao introduced Liu Daming and others to him. For a while, the atmosphere in the room was warm.

At the main table, Mr. Chen and Mr. Qin saw Mr. Zhou like this and shook their heads.

"Old Chen, everyone says that this old six is ​​honest, but I don't think so."

Mr. Qin said in a low voice, and Mr. Chen nodded in agreement.

"His move seems to have suffered a loss, but it is the smartest way."

"In the future, we only need to provide some people and materials, and all things will be done by the machinery factory. Tsk, tsk, why did I forget it at the beginning?"

Mr. Qin said in a low voice, and Liu Huaimin beside him was stunned.

After careful consideration, it is really like this.

At this time, looking at Mr. Zhou who was drinking and mingling with Yang Xiaotao, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, as expected, none of those who can sit in this position are simple.
