Scholars in the courtyard

After dinner, Zhou Peng took his two sisters back with Zhou's mother. Yang Xiaotao asked them to stay at home for one night, but Zhou's mother did not agree because she was afraid of trouble.

Besides, the road is not far.

Zhou Kui was worried and sent him home together, and then came back.

Yang Xiaotao returned home, washed himself, and then lay down to sleep.

Wangcai was lying on his stomach at the door, his head shaking from time to time.

The next day, Silhu got up early and his eyes were still a little red.

He slept well last night, but he was woken up by a sound in the middle of the night. Then, something terrible happened and he became unresponsive?

The terrifying scene made Silly Zhu sit up directly, stretched out his hand to touch, and still fell asleep like that?

Silly Zhu was panicked, and then thought of various ways to wake it up through his career.

Until the end, I was still thinking about Sister Xiao Qin, and then I reacted.

Then…

Opening the door, Silly Zhu came out to fetch water, wash his face, and put on his clothes.

Then he saw Liu Yuhua collecting water next to the faucet. Silly Zhu stared at it again and again.

I can't understand that such a woman was so capable last night.

Silly Zhu waited for Liu Yuhua to leave before going over to fetch water.

"It must be because it's too dark."

Silly Zhu thought silently in his heart.

After Yang Xiaotao got up, he ate a pack of instant noodles and then rode to the steel rolling mill.

After coming to the office and sitting down, Lou Xiaoe came back after a while to fetch water and asked about today's task. Yang Xiaotao thought for a moment that it was nothing important, just let her do what she was doing.

Lou Xiao'e understood, and then she saw Yang Xiaotao take out a notebook and start writing and drawing with a ruler.

She didn't care, after all, Yang Xiaotao often did this.

The most important thing about a small well drilling rig is the power part.

What Yang Xiaotao wants to solve is also the power system.

Without this, relying on manpower alone is not as good as digging it yourself with a hoe.

"The best power is electric, but that's simply not realistic."

"The second is the diesel engine. He does have a ready-made diesel engine blueprint. If you give him some time to study, he can also build a small single-cylinder engine. But this time is too late. Spring plowing has begun, and the well must be dug as soon as possible. "

"Not enough time."

Yang Xiaotao threw this idea behind him. If he couldn't make it, he could only use ready-made ones.

"You can ask the factory to apply, but the oil is also a problem. You can't bring oil with you every time. The cost will be expensive."

Yang Xiaotao shook his head, "Moreover, it would be best if it could be manufactured in large quantities like a water pressure well. Just one or two well-drilling machines are simply not enough for the entire country."

With the heating furnace and pressurized water well, Yang Xiaotao now thinks about the problem mainly from the perspective of promotion.

Give up the idea again.

Then he fell into deep thought.

Just when Yang Xiaotao was thinking about how to solve the power problem, in the next office, Yang Youning, Liu Huaimin, and Zhao Chuanjun gathered together, and there was also a strange face.

"Secretary Liu, Yang Changzi, this is Yu Hai, team leader Yu, who was specially sent by his superiors to assist."

Zhao Chuanjun introduced the two of them, but Liu Huaimin nodded.

"Comrade Yu Hai, we have received the notice. Thank you for your hard work this time."

"You're welcome, it's all about serving the people."

After the two parties met, Yang Youning was the first to speak, "We have just received instructions from our superiors to send capable personnel to the Quancheng Mechanical Repair Factory to assist in the work."

"Team Leader Yu, since the order is given, I will resolutely obey it, but you must protect this person."

Yang Youning spoke a bit bluntly, but in fact he refused in his heart.

Not to mention the whole country, there are so many engineers in Sijiu City, why do they have to go here?

Why Yang Xiaotao?

If something went wrong, it would be a huge loss to the factory.

And personally, he also has a preference for Yang Xiaotao.

However, the superior leader spoke and could not refuse.

"Director Yang, don't worry this time, I will personally lead the team and follow you."

"Furthermore, this operation is confidential and the time is short. As long as the task is completed quickly, we can return safely."

As Yu Hai spoke, Liu Huaimin frowned on the side.

This time Yang Xiaotao was invited to Quancheng No. 1 Machinery Factory, but the actual situation was to deal with problems at the auto repair shop.

The specific problem is unclear, but as the director of the first domestic factory to produce heavy-duty vehicles, there is no need to question his own strength.

This is a unit that is no worse than a steel rolling mill. If they can't solve the problem and let them go, can they solve it?

Liu Huaimin was worried, not because he was worried that it could not be solved, because it was normal, after all, the background was there.

What he was worried about was Yang Xiaotao's safety.

The last enemy attack on the courtyard had reminded them that Yang Xiaotao was the enemy's target.

But he was lucky that time, but who can say that he will always be lucky?

If anything happens...

I regret it so much!

"Team Leader Yu, what are your plans? I mean, your other actions."

Yu Hai glanced at Liu Huaimin, who was worthy of being an old revolutionary, and discovered the key at a glance.

"Secretary Liu, I will lead people to protect this operation in the dark. I will also need the help of my colleagues in the security department on the surface."

"As for what you said, our priority is to ensure the safety of Comrade Yang Xiaotao."

Liu Huaimin nodded after hearing this. He also knew that Yang Xiaotao was also a bait when he went out this time, a bait to completely eliminate hidden dangers.

There is never a day to guard against thieves.

"Do you need to talk to Yang Xiaotao about this matter?"

Yang Youning spoke at the side, but before Yu Hai could answer, Zhao Chuanjun shook his head, "You can't tell him. Yang Xiaotao has not received professional training. Knowing this, he will reveal his flaws, or make flaws due to nervousness. It is easy to make mistakes."

Yang Youning nodded, he was confused if he cared.

"How to arrange the specific itinerary?"

Zhao Chuanjun took out the schedule, "There are two trains every day from Sijiu City to Quancheng. One is a local train, departing at 8:30 in the evening and arriving at around 5 o'clock the next day. One is an early express train, which arrives at around 9 o'clock in the morning. Set off and arrive around three in the afternoon.”

"After contacting the comrades in Quancheng, we plan to take the express train tomorrow to reduce the time on the road and ensure safety."

"Wang Hao, the security officer here, is following. He is a scout in the army and has rich experience in this field."

After Section Chief Zhao finished speaking, Yu Hai on the side added, "Our Section Chief has also contacted Quancheng, and arrangements will be made around it."

"If the enemy doesn't come, forget about it. If the enemy comes, don't even think about escaping."

Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning looked at each other and nodded immediately.

"Okay, we have no objection to the rest."

…

bang bang bang

Yang Xiaotao was still thinking about the power system in the office when there was a sudden knock on the door.

Lou Xiao'e stood up and opened the door, and a few days later she saw Li Qiang, the factory director's secretary, standing at the door.

"Mr. Yang, the factory director is looking for you."

Li Qiang smiled at Lou Xiao'e, and then said to Yang Xiaotao.

Hearing that Yang Youning was looking for him, Yang Xiaotao immediately stood up and followed him out.

"Director, are you looking for me?"

Yang Youning was the only one in the office, and Yang Xiaotao sat down at the table.

"There's something I need you to go over." After Yang Youning finished speaking, he handed a document to Yang Xiaotao.

When I heard Yang Youning say "take a trip", I knew that there was a mission.

Yang Xiaotao took the document, and the content was simple, asking Yang Xiaotao to go to Quancheng No. 1 Machinery Factory to assist in the work.

The task requirements were clear, just ask him to go.

Yang Xiaotao frowned. He didn't say anything about it, and he didn't know the specific situation. If he had a black eye, he would be blind.

"Director, what's going on?"

"You'll know when you go there, I can't say."

Yang Xiaotao was speechless, "How long will it take? As you know, farming will start soon. I still have a lot of things to do here."

Yang Xiaotao was right. There were many parties involved in the farm affairs. Gao Yufeng had mentioned the importance of Yangcun No. 1 more than once, especially at the beginning, when the furry bears in the north were always watching.

In recent years, they have vigorously developed heavy industry and military industry, which has led to loopholes in the light industry. Of course, it is still in the early stages and has not yet appeared.

But Yang Xiaotao knows that as the cold accounting continues, this partiality will become more and more serious, eventually causing a serious financial burden.

Of course, there are many reasons for this situation, both external and internal. These are not what Yang Xiaotao cares about. He only knows that the fallen bear in the future is in Guo Jia's interests.

Domestic people with lofty ideals have realized this and have even listed it as an imaginary enemy.

Yang Xiaotao didn't expect so much. He just wanted to use these corns in exchange for the machines, materials, weapons, etc. developed by Guo Jia. As for when Mao Xiong fell in the future, if he could, he would take advantage of it.

Yang Youning heard what Yang Xiaotao said, "It shouldn't take long, and the distance is not far. If something happens, I can come back in a day."

Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao knew that he had to go this time.

But as Yang Youning said, Quancheng is indeed not far from here.

And this is his first mission, so he can't refuse.

"Director, when will we set off?"

"Tomorrow, the factory will arrange an entourage. We will gather at the factory tomorrow morning and go to the train station together."

"Okay, then I'll go home and get ready today."

"Well, just go back and tell your family. Please don't tell anyone."

"I see."

Yang Xiaotao nodded, turned and left the office.

When he returned to the house, he greeted Lou Xiao'e and said that he had something to do and left first, and Lou Xiao'e didn't ask.

Riding a car, he rushed directly to Yangjiazhuang.

This time I went to Quancheng and I didn’t know how many days it would take to get back. I had to tell Ran Qiuye to save me from worrying.

Yang Xiaotao rode very fast and ran back to Yangjiazhuang at around one o'clock in the afternoon.

Ran Qiuye was curious, why are you back now?

Yang Xiaotao told Ran Qiuye about the business trip, and he would not invite him to eat when he would come back.

Ran Qiuye was obviously hesitant when he heard about the business trip, but thinking about work, he finally supported it and asked Yang Xiaotao to pay attention to safety on the road, bring more clothes, and prepare the necessary things.

After nagging for a long time, Yang Xiaotao held Ran Qiuye in his arms.

Yang Xiaotao explained the situation, said hello to Mr. Yang, and then got on his bicycle and ran to Sijiu City in a hurry.

When they returned to Sijiucheng, it was already dark. After Yang Xiaotao finished cooking, he told Zhou Kui a few words and asked him to help look after the house in the courtyard. He didn't say where he was going, because it was for Zhou Kui's good.

Zhou Kui didn't ask. Now that the heat of the heater is being reduced, he also has time at home. As for Liu Yulan, she is still working in the workshop.

After returning home, Yang Xiaotao began to pack his things.

You’re away from home and you don’t know how many days you’ll be staying, so you need to bring close-fitting clothes, a water bottle, a water tank, and a towel.

Putting things in your backpack is, of course, for people to see.

There are many things that are really useful in Yang Xiaotao's space.

But it would be too unreasonable to go there empty-handed and then take out something.

After cleaning up, Yang Xiaotao sat on a chair and read for a while to pass the time.

At the hanging flower gate, Silly Zhu was immersed in his own world, with a worried look on his face.

At the door of Jia's house, Mrs. Jia Zhang had been waiting there for a long time. When she saw Silly Zhu coming over and saw that there was no lunch box in her hand, she immediately turned around and walked into the house.

After a while, Qin Huairu clapped her hands and walked out, knocking on Sha Zhu's door.

Silly Zhu was preparing dinner. A two-finger-long piece of pork on the table had been cut into slices, and the cabbage on one side had not been cut yet.

"Zhuzi, we're cooking."

"Sister Qin, here we come." Silly Zhu glanced at it, then lowered his head and put the meat into the bowl. He picked up the cabbage, picked off the rotten cabbage leaves, put them on the chopping board and chopped them twice.

"Zhuzi, you've started cooking now, why don't you bring a lunch box?"

Qin Huairu stared at the small bowl on the side. The meat in it was enough for their family.

"Stop talking, damn Xu Damao, this guy took the wrong medicine and was staring at him all day long." Silly Zhu felt a little helpless when he thought about it.

In the past few days, Xu Damao heard the news from nowhere and kept a close eye on him.

Silly Zhu knows who Xu Damao is best. If he dares to steal something from a lunch box, this guy will dare to report it to the security department.

He would dare to report it even if nothing happened, let alone if something was really going on?

So, these days, Shazhu didn't dare to take the leftovers from the kitchen.

Qin Huairu gritted her teeth when she heard that Xu Damao was causing trouble.

Originally, she felt comfortable after hearing Silly Zhu making things difficult for Xu Damao. Who asked Xu Damao to lead people to blackmail their Jia family?

Losing so much money was like stripping their family's skin.

"This Xu Damao is really nothing." Qin Huairu scolded Xu Damao, which made Sha Zhu feel comfortable, "Zhu Zhu, Sister Qin's family is too..."

…

After a while, Qin Huairu walked out of the room with a smile and walked home with a pot of cabbage and a bowl of meat in her hands.

Silly Zhu in the room put his hand under his nose and smelled it, his face was a little intoxicated, and he was struggling in his heart.
