Scholars in the courtyard

The train whined out of Sijiu City and headed south quickly, facing the rising sun.

The clanging sound is endless, and people in the car gradually get used to it.

At noon, everyone took out the dry food they had prepared from their luggage. The salesperson on the train took a thermos bottle and refilled water for those in need.

Yang Xiaotao took out a bottle of beef sauce from his backpack, sipped it on the steamed buns, and then distributed the rest to everyone.

Liu Jun took it and spread it on the steamed buns in the same manner. In the end, everyone in the carriage tasted the beef sauce. Even the bottle was gone, but they were more kind to this group of steel rolling mill workers.

Some people even asked if the steel rolling mill needed more people, as long as they gave them a mouthful of hot sauce every meal, which made the whole carriage burst into laughter.

The car arrived at Quancheng at five o'clock in the afternoon. When we got off the car, we saw Factory Director Wang and his people waiting on the platform.

Yang Xiaotao took people to meet.

"Director Wang, I've been waiting for a long time."

The two shook hands, but Director Wang shook his hand vigorously and said, "It's nothing. It's just the hard work for you in the car."

"Comrades, help quickly. Let's take the comrades from the steel rolling mill back to the factory."

The workers from the No. 1 Machinery Factory behind him immediately stepped forward to help cordially. They loaded the equipment they had brought with them into the truck, and then got on the truck from the No. 1 Machinery Factory.

The first car was a jeep. This car belonged to Factory Director Wang. It was just fuel-efficient, so it was kept in the warehouse to collect dust. It was only driven out to pick up people when it was important.

"Director Xiao Yang, thank you very much this time."

In the car, Director Wang handed a cigarette to Yang Xiaotao, and the two of them lit it.

"Director Wang, you are out of touch. We don't need to say thank you for this. We are all doing it to better build the revolution."

"Moreover, our steel rolling mill also needs your support. With the help of the No. 1 Machinery Plant, this technology can also be put to full use."

Factory Director Wang smiled and nodded, still convinced that this was Yang Xiaotao's personal behavior.

He already knew that apart from the steel rolling mill in Sijiu City, there were only four other places in the country.

Every choice is a big city, a place with convenient transportation, and even a circle on the map. When developed in the future, it will include important economic areas in the country.

And their Quancheng is within the circle of Sijiucheng, so obviously they have not considered it here.

But this time it was chosen, and it would be strange if Yang Xiaotao didn't have personal feelings.

The car entered a machine factory. Yang Xiaotao had been here last time and was familiar with it.

Soon, everyone checked into the arranged house, and then they were entertained by the comrades of the No. 1 Machinery Factory in the canteen, and then returned to the house to rest.

The next day, Yang Xiaotao and his people started working.

The No. 1 Machinery Factory wanted to establish an auto repair center and cooperate with the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill in Sijiucheng, which quickly attracted the attention of everyone in Quancheng.

Some factories with trucks have been waiting for this day for a long time. Although Quancheng Automobile Factory has obtained the production rights, according to the agreement between the two parties, it cannot be modified privately.

For this reason, many manufacturers approached Quancheng Automobile Factory and asked them to help with modifications. There were even people from government departments who came forward, but they were all rejected by Liu Dehui face to face.

This was rare under the circumstances.

What we have enveloped is something that is useful to the country and we want to share it together and then work together.

With this goal in mind, the refusal of the entire automobile factory caused many people to think that it was deviating from the purpose of the revolution, and some even reacted to their superiors.

But Liu Dehui is really not afraid now. Even if he is justified, even with the military connections behind him, they don't dare to touch him.

Some people don't believe in evil, so what they get is a piece of harsh criticism. Those who deliberately distort the facts go to the local government to resist hoeing.

When he came to the conference room, Yang Xiaotao not only saw Liu Dehui, but also the deputy mayor of Quancheng, a short but energetic middle-aged man.

The other party was very enthusiastic about Yang Xiaotao.

After all, in terms of rank, he, the deputy director of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, is also considered a deputy director, and the two of them are only one level behind.

Besides, he is from Sijiucheng.

The two parties exchanged a few words, and the deputy mayor even delivered a speech on behalf of the leaders of Quancheng, warmly welcoming them and his party, and hoped to have deeper connections and move forward together in the future.

Yang Xiaotao also expressed opinions on behalf of the steel rolling mill, saying that under the leadership of many leaders, Quancheng's achievements are obvious to all, especially the heavy trucks, which are famous throughout the country.

After the two complimented each other, Yang Xiaotao represented the steel rolling mill and Director Wang represented the No. 1 Machinery Plant. Witnessed by many leaders, they signed the agreement together to confirm the cooperative relationship between the two parties.

The agreement clarifies the work functions of both parties. Although it is as fair as possible, the personnel and production system are dominated by the steel rolling mill, so fairness is relative.

Factory Director Wang has no objections to this, and even others have no objections.

In the end, Factory Director Wang found someone to carve the agreement on a stone, trace it with a red pen, and stand it at the door of the auto repair center to let everyone understand their respective responsibilities.

And this stone tablet, decades later, also became a collection of important historical significance in the Quancheng Museum.

After the auto repair center opened, the city leaders left, leaving only a group of workers.

Yang Xiaotao personally took Li Nan to assemble a mechanical hydraulic auxiliary system, and then successfully modified Factory Director Wang's jeep under the watchful eyes of the deputy mayor and other leaders.

The whole process took less than an hour. The workers of the steel rolling mill shocked everyone watching with their superb technology, accurate division of labor and skillful operation.

We are not afraid of not knowing the goods, but we are afraid of comparing goods.

The comrades of the No. 1 Machinery Factory saw this and were surprised in their hearts.

Even people from the auto repair shop would give him a thumbs up when they saw it.

Those skilled disassembly and installation techniques, you can tell at a glance that they have been practiced for a long time.

When the comrades who tested the car came back and reported that the modification was successful, cheers immediately erupted.

What follows is in-depth cooperation between the two parties.

Li Nan and others began to lead the workers of the No. 1 Machinery Factory to become familiar with the hydraulic system, and at the same time began to modify the Shanghai cars used by the No. 1 Machinery Factory.

From simple to complex, teach it bit by bit until you fully understand it and can operate independently.

At that time, the rolling mill will only be responsible for providing technical support and then distributing auxiliary systems.

From this point of view, Yang Xiaotao's mission is more than half completed.

The next step is to go to the automobile factory to receive the truck and bring it back to the rolling mill, and hand over his gadget safety belt to Liu Dehui.

As for whether the other party wants to install it on the car, it depends on the other party's opinion.

"Director Liu! Director Wang!"

Yang Xiaotao found Liu Dehui in the crowd. Next to him, Factory Director Wang was talking enthusiastically, surrounded by a group of people.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao coming over at this time, the others said hello and left to make space.

"Director Xiao Yang, congratulations!"

Liu Dehui smiled and took out a cigarette, while Yang Xiaotao took out a lighter and they lit it.

"Lao Wang has agreed to get the Yellow River carp for you this time, so you have to have a meal this noon."

Director Wang smiled, "Don't blame me, didn't you prepare good wine? I heard that last time you got a few bottles of military supplies from the army, Old Liu, I'm not telling you that you kept such a big thing a secret I?"

Factory Director Wang became excited when he talked about this, and Liu Dehui spoke quickly when he saw it.

"Isn't this a surprise? Look at you. You get anxious when you hear the wine. How can I be like you?"

"Don't make fun of me. It's up to you whether you can bring it or not at noon."

"You don't have to tell me, just leave it in the car and pick it up in a moment."

Liu Dehui was glad that he was prepared, otherwise he would be embarrassed in front of Yang Xiaotao.

The men from Ludong are the most honorable.

"That's fine."

Factory Director Wang said and licked his lips.

In fact, the wine provided by the military is just like that. Compared with ordinary wine, it is stronger, and it is even not as good as some old-brand wines.

But this thing is about feelings.

Yang Xiaotao watched the two bickering from the side, and could see that they had a harmonious relationship. He waited for the two to finish talking before speaking.

"Director Liu, I've made a little gadget these days."

Yang Xiaotao didn't speak, but when he did, Liu Dehui and Liu Dehui's eyes widened.

Yang Xiaotao has come up with many gadgets over the years, but facts have proven that all of them are useful.

"Gadget? What gadget?"

The two asked eagerly. Telling them at this time was obviously giving them a chance.

Yang Xiaotao turned around, and Li Nan, who was following him, quickly took out a seat belt from the back bag.

Yang Xiaotao took it, and the two of them stepped forward to watch.

"This is a seat belt I designed that can be fixed on the driver's seat to protect the driver's safety."

"I'll show you two."

As he spoke, Yang Xiaotao slowly twitched the seat belt, "This smooth twitching can be used to pull it out."

"But if you apply force, it will get stuck!"

card~

As Yang Xiaotao exerted force, the seat belt was locked.

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Liu Dehui stepped forward to take over the seat belt without much concern in his eyes.

Even Factory Director Wang on the side was like this. He originally thought it was a good thing like an auxiliary system, but he didn't expect it to be this thing. It was really a gadget.

These days, there are also people who find a hemp rope to fix it on the car seat, but there are very few.

Because most drivers don't have this habit and prefer to get on and off the bus easily and concisely, jumping up and down is what a member of the Eighth Route Army should look like.

"I'll take it back and try it."

Liu Dehui still gave Yang Xiaotao face and did not refuse.

Yang Xiaotao just tried it and didn't care. "I brought twenty this time, half of them will be loaded on the truck when we go back. You can load the remaining ten on the truck and see the reaction."

"Okay, I'll leave it for you to install when I get back."

Although I didn't care about it in my heart, how useful would such a rope and such a gadget be if an accident really happened?

It's better to be more flexible and make it easier for drivers to jump out of the car.

After the episode, Director Wang entertained everyone in the cafeteria at noon, and then entertained Yang Xiaotao at home in the evening.

It was true that the Yellow River carp army provided wine. Yang Xiaotao tasted it and found that the fish was well cooked and had no earthy smell.

Before the dinner table, Liu Dehui talked about the situation of the Quancheng Automobile Factory. This time, the state's support was very strong. Not only did it provide strong material support, but it also sent many experts to help. Among these people, a group of people had previously studied with alliance experts. , including the designer of the ZIL130 truck.

It's a pity that in the end I only learned half-assedly, otherwise this truck could be produced in China.

The current Huanghe heavy truck refers to the design concept of the alliance and is redesigned according to the requirements put forward by the army. The new truck will be completed in a short time.

Yang Xiaotao also talked about the auxiliary system. After knowing the specific situation, Director Wang made a final decision and promised that the matter will be done beautifully, and if there is anything that needs the help of the first machine factory in the future, he will definitely cooperate.

Yang Xiaotao toasted both of them, and the purpose of coming this time was finally accomplished.

The next day, Yang Xiaotao came to the automobile factory. Looking at the group of soldiers standing at the door, with murderous aura on their bodies, Yang Xiaotao felt a little envious.

When will a steel rolling mill also have such an honor?

After some inspection, Yang Xiaotao led Liu Jun and ten people into the automobile factory.

Compared with the last time we opened, the car factory is now more busy and confident.

When he came to the workshop, Liu Dehui pointed to the truck where seat belts were being installed, "This is the last one, the other nine have been installed at the back and can be driven away at any time."

Yang Xiaotao nodded and gave the cigarette to Liu Dehui.

"Are these trucks used to deliver goods?"

"More than that. The other side requires that it can not only pull people but also cannons. If possible, it should also carry Katyusha."

"I'll go, that's a big killer!"

"Yeah, but the requirements for the car's chassis are very high."

The two chatted for a while, and the seat belts of the last truck were installed.

Seeing that Yang Xiaotao attached great importance to the seat belt, Liu Dehui frowned and said, "This thing may not be useful."

"How to say?"

"You've also driven a car. It's good if our cars can run over sixty. Besides, if something happens, the driver can jump out of the car. So, this thing is really not very useful."
