Scholars in the courtyard

Rolling mill, warehouse.

Today is a holiday, but people here have no rest and are all busy here.

Yang Xiaotao sent the new drawings and helped with the work. The new design uses high-carbon steel, which can be used to handle ordinary steel.

Chang Mingjie and the others were taking the time to modify the work tasks according to the drawings. Due to changes in the design, some previous parts were no longer usable and had to be redone.

Yang Xiaotao watched for a while, then Pang Guo came over, holding the drawing in his hand.

"Team leader, these are the drawings that were replaced earlier. They are all here."

Yang Xiaotao took it and put it away. Maybe it will be used one day in the future.

"Team leader, actually we have made a major breakthrough by making this machine tool."

"Do you think there are a few companies in China that can manufacture machine tools? Isn't it the parts imported from abroad? Are you looking at us? From screws to large parts, which one is not made by us in one go?"

"Based on this alone, our steel rolling mill is worthy of the country's mission."

"When we get familiar with it in the future, this machine tool will be like a tractor, rolling off the production line one by one. By then, our lathes will be available across the country."

Yang Xiaotao could feel Pang Guo's excitement when he spoke, and the workers working in front of him also responded with enthusiastic emotions.

Yang Xiaotao nodded with a smile, and then looked at the thick bed base, feeling that he didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore.

‘Perhaps the goal I set was too high! ’

Quancheng.

Factory Director Wang is also preparing for the Dragon Boat Festival at home, and even makes rice dumplings at home himself.

Zong leaves of different sizes are stacked together to form a round fan. Then, take out the sorghum from the pot and place it in the middle with your hands. Apply it evenly with your hands. Then the surrounding leaves are put together to look like a black turning head. Like, pinch hard.

The youngest son next to him immediately reached out to catch it, then put it together with the rice dumplings in his wife's hand, tied them up with local reeds, and placed them on the table nearby.

There are many ways to make rice dumplings here in Quancheng. Some like to use reeds, some like to use rice dumpling leaves, some eat glutinous rice, and some use rice and sorghum.

There are many varieties and different tastes.

Factory Director Wang has a special liking for sorghum. Not only him, but his family also likes it.

Of course, there are many reasons for this: lack of supplies.

And this year, their No. 1 Machinery Factory has achieved fruitful results.

The factory's efficiency is getting better day by day. It not only provides parts for automobile factories, but also provides bearings for steel rolling mills. More importantly, the newly established auto repair center not only installs hydraulic auxiliary systems, but also installs safety belts.

With this kind of establishment, the First Machinery Factory's income over the past year, plus the daily tasks assigned by superiors, in this spring city, it is also a good unit, an iron rice bowl.

A while ago, many boys and girls who came out of school were thinking about entering the factory.

With the stimulation of these new blood and the rewards obtained, the No. 1 Machinery Factory will only get better and better.

Director Wang smiled proudly, while his wife rolled her eyes. She had already kneaded the rice dumplings in her hand and was waiting.

If this guy hadn't set up a friendship pot when my little sister got married, making her parents' family the limelight, she would have thrown the water over and made him giggle.

"Director, Director!"

Just when Director Wang was stunned, Mavericks' shouting came from outside. Director Wang immediately came to his senses. He came here at this time, either for a meal or because he had something urgent to do.

Moreover, Mavericks was assigned to be on duty at the factory. Could something be wrong?

"calf!"

"Director, Director Liu of the automobile factory is looking for you and says there is something urgent!"

"Old Liu? Let's go!"

Director Wang immediately put down the rice dumpling leaves, put on his slippers, and left immediately.

Soon, the two came to the No. 1 Machinery Factory office. Liu Dehui was sitting at the table. When he saw Factory Director Wang coming in, he quickly stood up.

"Old Liu, if you are not eating rice dumplings at home during the Dragon Boat Festival, come to me. What's the emergency?"

Liu Dehui asked Mavericks to close the door, then walked aside and took out the big front door.

"Lao Wang, do you know about the steel rolling mill?"

"Steel rolling mill? What's going on? You mean you had to do some machine tool work a while ago?"

Factory Director Wang lit a cigarette. When he heard the news from the driver who came back, he sighed with emotion. Look at this guy, he is really capable.

"Yes, but now I seem to be in trouble."

"I heard from my comrades..."

After Liu Dehui finished talking about the matter, Director Wang's cigarette had been burned out.

Moreover, he knew the purpose of his visit without Liu Dehui explaining the situation.

"Old Wang..."

"Old Liu, there's no need to say anything else!"

Factory Director Wang threw the cigarette butt on the ground with a serious expression.

"We men from Shandong Province have nothing but this kind of loyalty that we never lack."

"Don't forget the person who dug the well when drinking water, and when you receive water from others, we will repay you with the spring water."

"Since someone is in trouble, we have to help out!"

Factory Director Wang said it categorically, but Liu Dehui said no more.

He was familiar with Lao Wang's temperament. He seemed casual, but he admired his deep loyalty.

"Lao Wang, since you have decided, I will go back."

Liu Dehui didn't mean to talk nonsense, nor did he mean to show off his merits, nor did he persuade Director Wang to think again.

In his opinion, everything Director Wang did was exactly what he thought.

"Okay, come to my house later to eat rice dumplings, remember to bring wine!"

"Go away, I have rice dumplings at home, you can eat them yourself."

After Liu Dehui finished speaking, he turned around and left. Director Wang curled his lips, didn't he just want a drink?

Factory director Xiao Yang is still happy.

It just so happens that when I go to Sijiucheng this time, I will definitely let him buy me a drink.

With a smile on his face, he called to Mavericks, "Mavericks, call for a meeting. Call the workshop directors."

Mavericks looked outside, it was the Dragon Boat Festival.

But seeing Factory Director Wang's appearance, he didn't dare to ask any more questions and immediately ran out to call someone.

rolling mill

Yang Xiaotao came out of the warehouse and changed the drawings. Except for the critical parts that required his help, Liu Daming could solve the rest by himself.

Besides, it's not time to use him yet.

So Yang Xiaotao acted as a hands-off shopkeeper for a while, stepping on the sun-dried soil and walked to the office.

Halfway through, Yang Xiaotao suddenly remembered that he wanted to make a walker for the Dragon Boat Festival. He was too busy for a while, so he forgot about it.

Looking before and after, Yang Xiaotao walked in right at the door of the third workshop.

There were only three or two people from the security department patrolling the workshop.

It has to be said that the security work of this steel rolling mill is getting better and better. Of course, this is also related to the increasing importance of the steel rolling mill.

When the two clerks saw it was Yang Xiaotao, they stepped forward to ask about the situation. Yang Xiaotao said that there was nothing to do, they were just making something.

The clerk also knew that Yang Xiaotao always had some unique ideas. He was even told by Factory Director Yang that no matter what Yang Xiaotao did, he must be informed in time. It seems now.

Several department staff looked at each other and always glanced at this place casually when making inspections.

After turning on the machine and finding some steel pipes, Yang Xiaotao began to make a walker according to his own ideas.

In fact, it is just a small chair with wheels. The wheels can be removed in the future and can be used by children.

After a while, several parts were processed. When I returned to the courtyard, I found a few wooden boards and found the wheels, and it was done.

Yang Xiaotao took the prepared handles and guardrails and left. Several staff members looked at each other and thought it was better not to talk about it.

When he returned to the office building, he looked around and found that he was the only one here. Yang Youning, Chen Gong and the others had already gone home.

'A bunch of guys who leave early and have no dedication at all. ’

'The true revolutionary warriors must stand at the last post. ’

Mentally despising the two guys, at the same time cheering myself up, it was a spiritual victory.

Then he walked quickly to the office, picked up his backpack and packed it away.

After everything is packed, we are ready to go home.

In the warehouse, with Chen Bin and the others watching, there shouldn't be any problems.

Ring ring ring

Just when Yang Xiaotao was about to open the door, the phone on the table suddenly rang.

Hesitating for three seconds, 'Cheng Yaojin' was most annoyed at this critical moment.

In the end, Yang Xiaotao walked back helplessly, put down his bag, and sat on the table, "Hey, who's there?"

"Brother Xiao Yang?"

The Qilu flavor on the other end of the phone made Yang Xiaotao immediately understand who it was, "Brother Wang, I wish you a happy Dragon Boat Festival."

"Haha, be safe and sound."

"Director Xiao Yang, we have found someone. Isn't your steel rolling mill going to work? I called Lao Yang three times but no one answered. At least we can find someone to keep on duty."

Director Wang started to complain on the phone. Yang Xiaotao listened and felt comfortable every time he chatted with this tall man. He liked this straightforward personality.

"Look at us, we have Mavericks guarding us during the holidays, but don't tell us that we are still useful when something really happens."

Factory Director Wang continued to chatter, while Yang Xiaotao listened with a smile and was not in a hurry to go home.

"Director Wang, if you do this, Mavericks has no objection?"

"Does he have any objection?"

The calf at the door shrank his neck, his eyes filled with opinions.

However, thinking that the factory director was very kind to him on weekdays and always remembering him when eating and drinking, I felt that I shouldn't have had any objections just now.

"Hey, let's not talk about this anymore. I'll call you and tell you something."

"You say."

"Xiao Yang, are you encountering difficulties?"

Yang Xiaotao picked up the kettle and took a sip, then replied, "We did encounter some difficulties."

"I said, Xiao Yang, you guys are being unreasonable. When you encounter difficulties, you ask others for help instead of us?"

"Look down on our No. 1 Machinery Manufacturing Factory? Or do you look down on us Qilu men?"

"Let me tell you, we guys are the most loyal people. When one party is in trouble, we support from thousands of miles away. When the Huaihai War happened, we pushed the cart and rushed there step by step."

Yang Xiaotao showed a wry smile and just said one thing, but he was greeted by a bunch of people.

Although I was speechless after being retorted, how could I not get angry when I heard these words?

It wasn't until someone came to drink water from the other side that he said, "Brother Wang, why are you doing this? We really don't mean to look down on anyone. We don't want to cause trouble to our brothers and comrades."

Unexpectedly, it would have been better not to say this, but the other side directly said that they did not regard them as brothers. Yang Xiaotao quickly explained, "Brother Wang, this is not my brother's. In this way, next time, I will treat you to a drink. No." The kind that won’t come back when you’re drunk.”

"Hahaha, I've been waiting for your words for a long time."

Director Wang's hearty laughter came from the opposite side, and he had obviously been waiting here for a long time.

"Okay, then I'll find you tomorrow. I'll have to prepare some wine then."

Yang Xiaotao didn't react and was still confused when he heard Factory Director Wang continue to say, "I heard from Old Liu what kind of knife are you looking for to cut alloys?"

"You said such a big thing and you didn't tell your brother. Do you have to buy him a drink?"

At this time, Yang Xiaotao finally understood why Factory Director Wang was not at home drinking with his wife and children. Bah, after the Dragon Boat Festival, he was running around chatting with him.

My heart suddenly lifted.

"Brother, you, you mean, you have a knife?"

Yang Xiaotao shouted in disbelief.

Director Wang's proud laughter came from the opposite side.

"Nonsense, you think our name is Quancheng No. 1 Machinery Manufacturing Factory for nothing."

"Come to think of it, our factory has a history no worse than your rolling mill. I won't mention things before liberation. Let's just say that when the alliance had a good relationship with us, our No. 1 Machinery Manufacturing Plant was a key unit that received special support. Ah, what was the scene at that time?”

"This good thing was sent to me back then, but it has always been our factory's treasure."

Yang Xiaotao behind him didn't hear clearly. He only knew one thing. This Lao Wang seemed, probably, to be a reliable person because he liked to drink.
