Scholars in the courtyard

Mr. Xia left, and the meeting was over.

All in all, it's a good thing for the First Machinery Department.

When Mr. Huang returned to the office, Mr. Sun and others also came over, all wanting to chat. Especially Mr. Sun, who was in charge of machine tool manufacturing, was eager to get Yang Xiaotao over.

"Old Huang, you have to take care of Lao Xia. His steel rolling mill can just roll steel well. Such professional talents should be placed in a suitable place."

"We can't let our good seedlings be crushed by Lao Xia's piece of steel."

Mr. Sun was still talking, and the old man on the side nodded, "No, we can't let old Xia Huohuo do it. There happens to be a vacancy in the machinery factory here. This guy was originally the deputy director, and he just got it right this time."

"Hey, Lao Cheng, are you serious?"

"What's wrong, Lao Sun? That's a machine tool of yours. We don't need it for car manufacturing."

"I'm mature, if you want to say this, then we have to discuss it carefully."

"Let's face it, you haven't given us many useful machine tools in recent years. It's true."

"I"

Mr. Huang smiled and saw that several old brothers were blushing and were about to speak, when the phone on the table rang.

Mr. Huang picked up the phone and after only listening for a while, his expression felt a little wrong.

Several people on the side looked serious when they saw him.

"Look, we have a 'traitor' here. As soon as we have some good stuff, the logistics guys come to ask for it."

Mr. Huang said seriously.

The person who called just now was the logistics boss. He heard about the machine tools in the steel rolling mill and wanted to get them from the logistics department.

Mr. Huang knew the difficulties in logistics. The replacement of equipment made the logistics personnel very busy, especially the Type 63 automatic rifle. The design was very good, but it was a pity that there were too many restrictions in production.

The biggest one is the process requirements, and the machine production capacity cannot keep up, so I asked him for machine tools.

Of course, he would not agree.

That is the treasure of the First Machinery Department.

"The people below must have failed to keep it confidential. We have to take care of this matter."

Lao Sun said, and Lao Huang waved his hand, "Whatever, this is what people do. Okay, they have already made demands, what should we do?"

"What should I do? If I don't give it, it's not easy to get it. Why should I give it to them? They also have machine tool factories and produce it themselves."

Lao Cheng had a hot temper and refused directly.

"It's just that they are so stingy. They didn't even give me tungsten steel when I asked for it last time, but they still have the nerve to ask for it. They are really thick-skinned."

Lao Sun said, and everyone else nodded.

No matter how they make trouble, the meat belonging to the First Machinery Department must not be stolen by others.

"Okay, just say that the machine tool is still being tested and won't give it."

Huang Lao opened his mouth and settled down, and everyone nodded in unison.

This matter is not negotiable.

"Don't worry, if it really works, they will have to bring tungsten steel to our door and let us do it."

"Hahaha"

"When the time comes, please stay a little longer."

"Yes, our machinery manufacturing requires a lot of alloys, and their logistics department is extremely rich."

"Oh, I don't know what those guys in the Metallurgical Department did. They haven't made any progress after so many years."

"No, I need to put things in order this time, I heard Li Dayan."

Then several old men lit up cigarettes in the office and started talking about topics one by one. It was more like an elderly tea party.

The entrance of the courtyard.

Yang Xiaotao put Mr. Yang and others on the donkey cart and delivered a bag of things to the cart.

Before leaving, he told Yang Dazhuang to keep an eye on his grandfather and the corn on the farm. He would go back and take a look at it when he had time.

It's been too busy right now. The corn will be earing and pollinated in a few days. I don't know what's going on in the northwest. It's hard to say whether I can leave here.

Yang Dazhuang nodded, and the master on the side reminded Yang Xiaotao, "The students' results will be out soon. You can get some snacks and go and watch."

Yang Xiaotao nodded.

The current examination speed is not as fast as that of later generations, mainly because there are few teachers and many candidates.

Because it is an elementary school entrance examination and a junior high school entrance examination, I have already added my wishes before the examination, so there is no need to apply later. This is different from the university entrance examination later.

Therefore, after the teacher has finished correcting the test paper, a specialized teacher will extract the scores and send them to each examination school. Then, after confirmation by each school, the scores will be sent to the school where you applied.

Basically, when the school knows the test scores, it will know how many students passed the test based on previous years' experience.

The children in Yangjiazhuang are enrolled in Hongxing Elementary School, so when their report books come out in two days, they can just go directly to Hongxing Elementary School and ask.

This matter is related to the future of the children in the village and must be taken seriously.

After seeing off the three masters, Yang Xiaotao returned home. The people in the house had already helped to clean up. Wang Dashan and Zhou Kui sat for a while and then went home to sleep.

A rare weekend break.

After seeing off a few people, Ran's mother and Zhou's mother each carried one to enjoy the shade under the locust tree in the courtyard. Ran Qiuye took a lunch break with the two little ones in their arms, while Yang Xiaotao picked up the previous drawings and revised them in the study.

Ran Qiuye's reminder was timely last time, so Yang Xiaotao decided to revise the original design parameters.

I looked at the drawings one by one carefully, constantly calculating the relationship between the parameters in my mind, and slowly entered the state.

Dinner was the leftovers from lunch.

After eating, Yang Xiaotao continued to work in the study.

I revised the drawings one by one, and finally focused on the remaining drawings.

According to experience, the problem lies in this. Then Yang Xiaotao modified the drawings while paying attention to the sound of the system.

The next time came into the ‘trial and error’ phase.

Every time I make a change, I will stop for a moment and then continue to make changes.

At midnight, Ran Qiuye had fallen asleep, and Yang Xiaotao was still staring at the drawings.

"Ding!"

There was a reminder in my mind.

The sound came so suddenly that Yang Xiaotao didn't react yet, so he thought it was his auditory hallucination.

But then the familiar voice continued to sound, and Yang Xiaotao finally leaned on the chair with a relaxed expression, "It's finally here. I thought the phone was turned off."

"Ding, congratulations to the host, you have successfully designed a mechanical punch. The evaluation level is excellent - down!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host, you have obtained 3000 credits."

The two sounds fell, which also meant that the designed punch was successful.

Of course, this is not a low evaluation.

Yang Xiaotao looked at the drawings and realized that the punch he designed was excellent, at least better than ordinary machine tools.

And the credits were directly given to 3,000. After looking at the panel, it was directly upgraded to 11,000.

This is more money than reading a book.

Yang Xiaotao thought about what grinders, lathes, boring machines, and milling machines there were in the future. If these were reduced one by one, wouldn't the credits keep rising?

He is now an eighth-level engineer. When he accumulates 30,000 credits, he will be promoted to level seven.

"I hope it will be given a useful sub-skill by then."

Thinking in his mind, he put the hard-working drawing into the space, then went to bed, took the little Dragon Boat Festival from Ran Qiuye's arms to the small bed, and then went to sleep.

The next day, after Yang Xiaotao arrived at the steel rolling mill, Officer Huo from Quancheng came to say goodbye.

The machine tools have been produced, and the things borrowed from others should be returned.

Besides, something has to be borrowed and repaid, so it’s not difficult to borrow again.

I personally sent Director Huo to the motorcade, and happened to take the bearing truck from Quancheng back. Of course, I couldn’t leave without gifts and gifts, just a little thoughtfulness.

After Director Huo left, Yang Xiaotao returned to the office and first picked up the phone to call Wang Dahai from Quancheng.

He told Director Huo about his meeting with Quancheng today and asked them to prepare for it.

Then we talked about machine tools.

After just saying the beginning, there was a sound of surprise from the other end of the phone, followed by an unbelievable sound of confirmation.

"What? Is this all used up?"

"How long did it take for this to happen?"

Wang Dahai couldn't believe it and confirmed again and again on the phone.

Yang Xiaotao explained with a smile, "Brother Wang, our steel rolling mill will never forget this kindness."

"By the way, now we are going to make a punch press. Do you need it? If so, I can make one for you by the way?"

"What? Brother Yang, don't be joking, this is a punch press."

Wang Dahai naturally knows the significance of a machine tool. Their Quancheng No. 1 Machinery Factory has not replaced new machines in several years.

"I'm not joking, but this is not for free. You have to make a request to Quancheng and let us be responsible for the production."

What Yang Xiaotao meant when he said this was that this punch machine was not a favor to him, and that favor could not be redeemed by a punch machine.

And their steel rolling mill can use this method to increase the connection between the two parties.

Of course, the closeness here can be seen at a glance.

When the news spreads that the steel rolling mill can manufacture machine tools, there will definitely be a large number of factories looking to do it, and there will be no shortage of orders. When the time comes, which order the steel rolling mill will accept and who will be built first will depend on their mood.

Wang Dahai naturally knows this.

"Are you telling the truth? The punch press I use in the workshop now is a second-hand product from the alliance. It will have to be stopped for repairs after less than a day."

Wang Dahai complained a lot, while Yang Xiaotao smiled.

"Brother, let's get one first. I'll tell the boss. By the way, I also need to ask Lao Liu. He has a lot to do and needs a machine tool."

Wang Dahai has not forgotten his good comrade Liu Dehui, and Yang Xiaotao has no objection. These two people are good friends in their steel rolling mill. They are doing one and two.

"Okay, I'll wait for your call."

"good!"

On the other side, Wang Dahai hung up the phone, picked up the jar on the table and took a big sip of cold water, feeling grateful for his original decision.

What they pay for is the use of a set of cutter heads, but what they gain is great benefits.

Besides the benefits, there is also the camaraderie of the rolling mill.

Today's steel rolling mills are no longer mills that could only roll steel. Looking at what they do, they definitely have endless potential.

Wang Dahai sighed with emotion, and was about to pick up the phone, but walked out of the office with a hat on his side, "Xiao Niu, let's go, I'll take you to have a meal."

Putting down the phone, Yang Xiaotao took the drawings and prepared to talk to Yang Youning. After all, there are a lot of things needed to make a punch machine, and some of them require the cooperation of other factories.

Just when I came to Yang Youning's office, I saw Secretary Xiaoqiang running towards me before I entered, saying that Mr. Xia and Liu Huaimin were here. Yang Youning asked Yang Xiaotao to wait in the warehouse.

Yang Xiaotao quickly rushed to the warehouse with the design drawings in hand.

Arriving at the warehouse, Chen Bin and the others were checking the operation of the machine tool. Liu Daming on the side was processing a component. Yang Xiaotao looked at it and saw that it was the body of the Feiying pressure cooker.

"Haha, it's fast. Look, it was done in three minutes."

Liu Daming was carrying a pot body and a pot lid, feeling excited.

Three minutes. It would take hours to cook such a pressure cooker, at least two people.

No wonder Yang Xiaotao said that it is a world of futuristic machines.

Thinking of this, I feel a little disappointed. These eighth-level masters will eventually be eliminated one day.

"Team leader."

Yang Xiaotao approached and greeted several people.

He glanced at the pot body and lid made by Liu Daming, and then asked, "How is it? It's running normally."

Yang Xiaotao walked to the gear box and listened closely. There was no noise, which showed that the production was made with high precision and the gears were running closely together.

"It seems that there is no problem now. The running-in between the various components is very good, but it still needs maintenance and oiling frequently to avoid wear and tear."

"Also, our factory does not have qualified workers. If we want to run the machine tools, we have to find some masters, otherwise problems will occur."

Chang Mingjie was recording in a notebook while giving Yang Xiaotao advice.

It’s not like just anyone can operate a machine. Even if it can be operated, it may not be able to maintain it.

Yang Xiaotao nodded as he listened. The maintenance of machine tools, especially high-precision machine tools, is particularly important.
