Scholars in the courtyard

Chapter 318 Knowledge is wealth

Seeing Director Wang frowning and saying nothing, Yang Xiaotao was also a little nervous.

"You kid are stepping on the line!"

"No way, I'm not referring to carpenters and electricians!"

"Don't talk nonsense. You are not the same as others. Electricians have certificates. Do you have one?"

"How many years has this carpentry profession been passed down? How many years has it been?"

"The person is not big, but the tone is not small!"

Director Wang opened his mouth to reprimand, but in Yang Xiaotao's ears it felt different, like an elder criticizing a younger one.

But in the end, it’s not support!

Yang Xiaotao lowered his head and pretended to be pitiful. Director Wang saw this and snorted.

"However, it makes sense for you to use the nest of the steel rolling mill to lay eggs."

Think of Yang Xiaotao’s current job, R\u0026D team?

It really allowed him to take advantage of the loophole. I don't know whether Yang Youning's original arrangement was intentional or unintentional.

"Hey, Aunt Wang, what do you mean?"

"Okay, isn't this why you came to me? I'm not sure, but if this thing is useful, I can report it to the superiors for you. If it can save coal, maybe it can be promoted."

"But if it doesn't work..."

"Okay, it definitely works. I'll have someone press it on for you in a moment. You'd better try it yourself, right?"

"Hmph! You little monkey is so mean-spirited! By the way, your Qiuye is more than a month old. Is there anything going on?"

"That, not yet!"

"You kid, you have to hurry up. I've seen Qiuye. Your body is just in time. You won't be able to do it, right?"

Yang Xiaotao blushed. He couldn't afford to offend an old lady, especially the old lady who was in charge of family planning at the street office.

"With my body, I'll be fine. Next year, I'll let you have your grandson!"

Yang Xiaotao said, turned around and ran out.

"Baby, hehe..."

"Quickly, move in!"

"Here, make a hole! Slow down, don't dig into the wall!"

Yang Xiaotao holds pliers in his hand and is connecting the pipes to the radiator.

On the side, Zhou Kui and Mengzi were drilling through the wall, and many people around were watching.

Yang Xiaotao did not place the radiator in Director Wang's office, as that would have little effect.

Place it in the office hall, facing the door. Anyone who comes in and feels warm will look at it twice and ask a few questions.

Isn’t this advertising effect coming out?

There were many people around asking, and Yang Xiaotao just asked them to do the publicity, so he talked impatiently.

There are stoves in the subdistrict office, but they are only used in a few departments. The number of briquettes purchased every year is a large number. Recently, in order to save coal, many people are crowded into one room to work.

Now I heard that this one stove can drive the entire area. Regardless of whether it is true or not, the people in the street office are full of hope.

Even Director Wang came out to take a look and felt that it was indeed something serious.

After the perforation was completed, Yang Xiaotao directed the two radiators to be connected together, one high and one low, and the iron pipes were completed to form a closed circuit.

By the time the whole set was finished, it was already noon, and Yang Xiaotao and the four of them didn't stop.

Right now, the most important thing is verification!

"Xiao Zhong, go get some water!"

"Why!"

Xiao Zhong quickly ran to the faucet, and people from the street office came to help.

Soon, several buckets of water went down. Zhou Kui, who was deflating at the other end, saw the water coming out and quickly went to the next radiator to continue deflating until both radiators were filled with water. Then he walked away and checked the route. No water leaks.

On the other side, Mengzi had already started a fire and lit the stove. Three pieces of honeycomb briquettes were also put in. The damper was pulled to the maximum, and the flame kept rising.

Yang Xiaotao was explaining the usage and precautions to several people from the street office, and also introduced the benefits of using briquettes in this way.

When the stove was lit, Yang Xiaotao took the three of them out for dinner.

After a whole morning of physical work, several of them were now hungry.

Yang Xiaotao touched his money. In order to build these heating stoves, he spent most of his savings on purchasing materials. Fortunately, there is system support, and with the salary just paid last month, treating three people to a meal can be regarded as joining the family. It’s time to eat!

The four of them came to Yongjun Restaurant, but Yang Xiaotao couldn't help but recognize this area.

After saying a few polite words to the boss, he led a few people to dinner.

Steamed buns, pot-roasted pork, and tofu mixed with green onions, several people ate them up.

Yang Xiaotao looked at the time. It was two o'clock in the afternoon. It was time to go check on the situation!

As soon as I walked to the street office, I saw a bunch of people gathered inside.

When several people came back, they were immediately recognized and shouted to hurry over.

Yang Xiaotao thought something had happened, but when he walked in, he felt that the room was a little hot.

Looking around, the windows were all open, and many people opened their office doors. The surprise on their faces told him that it was probably not a bad thing.

When I walked to the stove, Director Wang was adjusting the damper. When he saw Yang Xiaotao, he got up quickly.

"Your stove is very good, the whole room is much warmer!"

"You burned it too fast. With this method, these three briquettes will be burned out in just one afternoon!"

Yang Xiaotao said, using tongs to take out the briquettes. The bottom piece of briquettes was already white, and even the middle piece was rarely black.

Yang Xiaotao put the top two pieces in, took a new briquette and pressed it on top, and then Director Wang sat an iron kettle on it.

"It's okay, I just wanted to see how the temperature was. It looks good now!"

"Come here, kid!"

After saying that, he called Yang Xiaotao into the office.

"Tell me, how much does this thing cost!"

Director Wang asked directly.

"Hey, it's not good to talk about money!"

"Stop looking at me carelessly and tell me quickly so I can report to my superiors."

"yes!"

Yang Xiaotao understood the meaning, was very satisfied, and was ready to report it.

"The stove and water tank are made of materials from the steel rolling mill and polished by workers..."

"Just tell me the price."

"Well, the stove is 3 yuan, the water tank is 1 yuan, the radiator is 2 yuan, and the pipe is 20 cents per meter!"

"In addition, there is an installation fee of 1 yuan per set, and additional radiators are 5 cents each!"

Director Wang recorded on the paper, and after Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, he listed a row of data next to it.

The stove you are using now only costs 2 yuan if you buy it from the factory.

But the stove can only operate one in a room. Even if the stove is turned on in the living room, the room is still very cold.

When the weather is cold, coal can only be continuously consumed for heating, and this consumption rate is not low.

For five houses, five stoves cost a total of ten yuan in the past, and coal would cost almost ten yuan in one winter.

That adds up to twenty.

If you replace it with a new stove, you only need one stove and four radiators, which costs about twelve in total, but you save half the cost of coal.

There are only seventeen in total.

This is only the first year. In the following years, this will save a lot!

Director Wang is just making a general estimate. There are also people's needs for temperature and environment. Obviously radiators are more suitable than stoves.

At least now it seems that for the seven or eight departments in the subdistrict office, one stove and a few radiators can meet the needs. They don't have to be crowded together like in previous years.

After Director Wang finished the calculation, he took out a slip and wrote it down, "Take it to the accountant to settle the account!"

Yang Xiaotao was stunned, took the order casually, and looked at the number on it, 10 yuan!

His eyes suddenly smiled.

"Aunt Wang, look, if your family needs it, you can contact us in advance and we will provide door-to-door service!"

Aunt Wang chuckled, "This is what your kid is paying attention to!"

"hey-hey"

"Stop hey, get busy!"

"Okay, let's go!"

"By the way, I'm going to have a drink with Uncle Li tonight!"

After that, get out of the way!

Behind her, Aunt Wang rolled her eyes!

Half an hour later, Yang Xiaotao left the subdistrict office with ten yuan more on him.

Zhou Kui next to him had a happy face and held two pieces of white paper with addresses on them.

I just placed an order and will have it installed tomorrow.

Several people were very excited. Yang Xiaotao had just told them that they could earn a dollar by pretending to be the best!

Divided between three people, two households each received two yuan a day, which was nearly one yuan each!

This month...

The three of them were shocked by the incomprehensible numbers!

In my heart, I felt even more grateful and in awe of Yang Xiaotao.

And Yang Xiaotao is also calculating the cost. The specific materials cannot be calculated in detail, but the scraps in the warehouse are not much. A set of stoves only costs about two yuan, but the profit created is six yuan. Excluding labor costs, you can make a net profit of one or two yuan per set.

Even in this day and age, this is an incredible profit!

Even more ruthless, squeezing labor costs and making more money.

Yang Xiaotao kept it in his heart and asked the three excited guys to go home, while he went home and prepared to do some calculations.

When he reached the entrance of the alley, Yang Xiaotao thought of something, took out his packed autumn clothes and trousers from the space, and carried them home.

Returning to the courtyard, as soon as I entered the door, I saw Lou Xiaoe talking to Ran Qiuye at home. Yang Xiaotao nodded and walked into the study. Lou Xiaoe got up and left.

Ran Qiuye sent Lou Xiao'e away and entered the study room, where he saw Yang Xiaotao calculating numbers.

Seeing Ran Qiuye come in and put today's income on the table, Ran Qiuye also covered his mouth in disbelief.

"You made ten yuan in one day?"

"The net profit is just over three yuan!"

"That's not a lot, I..."

Ran Qiuye wants to say that she only earns 20 a month now, which is not as much as Yang Xiaotao earns in a week!

"This money can't be calculated like this, we have to give some to Brother Wang and the others!"

Yang Xiaotao said, telling Ran Qiuye the distribution plan in his mind for reference.

I originally thought about working on a piece-rate wage, but this is the age of collectives. If we really want to do this, the Security Department will probably invite us to drink water!

Therefore, except for Zhou Kui and the others, everyone else who participated earned money equally.

In this way, no one else has anything to say.

As for what will happen in the future, Yang Xiaotao also has a plan in mind, which is to hand it over to the steel rolling mill for mass production. Of course, the premise is that the heating furnace is really popular.

"That's a lot! This, this is incredible!"

Yang Xiaotao held Ran Qiuye's hand, "This is just a small fight, you know, this knowledge is wealth!"

Ran Qiuye nodded silently, others might want to think about this.

But from Yang Xiaotao's mouth, coupled with Yangcun No. 1 and the rolling mill, etc., all this is convincing.

"By the way, I bought you some autumn clothes and autumn trousers. Take care of yourself when it's cold!"

Yang Xiaotao said, pointing to the box on the bed.

Ran Qiuye was attracted by the clothes and hurried over, "This material is really good!"

"Go to Aunt Wang's house for dinner tonight, prepare something!"

Ran Qiuye nodded, while Yang Xiaotao took out the carpenter's tools and started working in the yard with the remaining wooden boards.

Wang Fa brought the door up. He promised to get a bed, so he couldn't break his promise!

The sound of wood kept coming, and people in the courtyard were not surprised when they saw it.

In the evening, the two of them came to Director Wang's house for dinner. They talked about the heating stove, and Uncle Li also gave some advice.

Yang Xiaotao also revealed his follow-up arrangements and found time to come here to install one, making Aunt Wang and the two of them nod in approval.

There is nothing that can be done about Yang Xiaotao's cunning. He can obviously tell the steel rolling mill directly that he must make a wave of "hard-earned money". This kind of thinking must be corrected.

Um

Never again!
