Scholars in the courtyard

Chapter 1032 Gemini Plan

In the early morning, An Zhong woke up and called his youngest son out of bed to prepare to go to the market.

When he heard that he was going to buy meat, his youngest son jumped up immediately and quickly put on his clothes.

The wife was cleaning up in the house and preparing breakfast.

The two men drank some and went out early, while the woman led the child around.

Before noon, the father and son came back, but seeing their hands empty and the unhappy look on the younger son's face, the wife knew that they were late.

Towns and villages are like this, there are not many supplies, and sometimes even if you have money and tickets, you can't buy anything.

The youngest son walked into the house, looking reluctant.

An Zhongsheng could only comfort him and buy it tomorrow, and then gave his wife a wry smile.

"I'll go to the grain store later and get next month's food supply."

When the wife saw that she couldn't buy any meat, she had no choice but to go get food.

An Zhongsheng nodded.

touch.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and the two looked at each other.

The wife looked at the noodle vat at the bottom and shook her head helplessly.

Most of the people who come during this time are looking for food.

But his family didn't have any extra food.

The knocking on the door continued, not loudly, as if he was still hesitating.

An Zhongsheng took a deep breath, finally walked to the door and asked softly, "Who is it?"

At the same time, prepare to open the door.

Just the next second, the person who heard the sound shouted loudly, "Teacher An!"

After hearing this, An Zhongsheng opened the door quickly and was stunned when he saw who was coming.

There were two people standing at the door, one tall and one short, both young people.

The lower one looks familiar.

"Are you Junming?"

An Zhongsheng asked hesitantly.

"Yes, yes, Teacher An, I am Li Junming!"

"Quick, come in."

An Zhongsheng immediately smiled and said, "I received your letter last night and saw you today. It's really..."

An Zhongsheng was a little excited and did not forget to greet his wife in the room, "We have guests, prepare more food."

When the wife came and saw two young men walking in, she was stunned on the spot before she could say anything.

An Zhongsheng also realized something was wrong at this time. He saw the young man behind Li Junming walking in the door, carrying a large piece of pork in one hand and a bag of flour in the other hand. It looked like it weighed more than 30 kilograms, which was quite difficult to carry.

Seeing the two people surprised, Li Junming hurriedly introduced, "Teacher An, this is my classmate Li Lei, who is also a technician at the Red Star Steel Plant."

"Hello, Teacher An!" Li Lei greeted with a smile.

An Zhongsheng reacted and realized the purpose of the two people's coming.

just
“So much meat!”

There was a sound of surprise in the room behind her, and the wife quickly turned around, glared, and drove the two sons back to the room.

An Zhongsheng reacted and hurriedly said, "Hello, hello. Welcome, welcome."

With that said, he invited the two people into the house.

Li Lei winked at Li Junming, and the two of them understood each other tacitly, but secretly gave Li Lei a thumbs up.

Judging from the children's reactions just now, this is almost a done deal.

When the two came to the house, An Zhongsheng asked them to sit down and went to make tea.

"Teacher An, please stop working. We can just drink water."

"Yes, Teacher An, we can't bear this!"

"If you can't bear it, you are a guest. You can just sit down."

After An Zhongsheng finished speaking, he went to wash the cup.

On the other side, my wife was in trouble again. Should I cut this meat?
Seeing the longing and unwillingness of the children makes me feel uncomfortable.

"Dad, why don't you cut it into a small piece and let them take the rest back?"

An Zhongsheng washed the cup, looked at three pairs of longing eyes after hearing this, and finally nodded.

The kids immediately started laughing.

"Teacher An, you don't have to think too much, this is for you."

At some point, Li Junming came over and saw the previous scene.

"Junming, the teacher is very pleased that you came to see me. The things are too valuable, so you can take them back to your family."

"Teacher An, I didn't buy these things."

Li Junming shook his head, and Li Lei stepped forward and said, "Teacher An, we are here on behalf of the Red Star Steel Plant to invite you to guide the work."

An Zhongsheng remained silent.

The wife next to her also nervously grasped the kitchen knife and moved the meat away.

Seeing this, Li Lei began to introduce Hongxing Steel Factory.

"Teacher An, you may not have heard of the Hongxing Steel Factory, but you must have heard of the Hongxing Machinery Factory!"

"Red Star Machinery Factory, the one in the tractor formation a few days ago!"

An Zhongsheng raised his head and asked.

"Yes, let's go to that one. Machinery factory is the general name. There are many factories below, such as chemical factories, machine repair shops, and our steel factory..."

Li Lei gave an overview of the situation, and An Zhongsheng understood the situation and no longer looked down upon him.

Even if it was just a branch of the machinery factory, it would be better than his current workplace.

"Teacher An, now we have started to transform the converter." After Li Lei finished speaking, Li Junming then spoke. The two of them cooperated one from the overall situation and the other from the professional side. This was also a plan that had been arranged long ago.

Sure enough, when talking about the renovated converter, An Zhongsheng didn't care about washing the cups and just found a brick to sit down on, and the two of them did the same.

"Have you started the transformation? What are you going to do?"

"We want to improve a small converter with side-blown air and make a model first..."

"This is a good way!"

"But there are also many problems..."

The three of them communicated at the side. Li Lei added a few words from time to time, talking about the importance of his superiors, especially when it came to Yang Xiaotao. He even explained everything about the organization of the R&D department, so that An Zhongsheng understood that Yang Xiaotao was really Want to change the status quo of steel plants.

"Teacher, we have the biggest problem now."

At the end, Li Junming spoke solemnly.

"You said."

"Mr. Yang said that if the model is successful, it means that this method is feasible, so large-scale open-hearth furnaces need to be modified. We have not been involved in this aspect."

"I remember that you once visited the Alliance for inspection, so I came here to ask for your help."

After hearing this, An Zhongsheng stood up suddenly, with a confident look on his face, "Let's go, follow me."

Walking quickly towards the house, Li Lei looked at each other and smiled, then quickly followed.

In the room, An Zhongsheng opened a wooden box, which contained books wrapped in newspapers.

An Zhongsheng carefully stroked the cover and fell into memories.After a long time, he smiled at the two of them and found a blueprint inside.

"This is the scene I saw when I went to the Alliance many years ago. I later wrote it down. Their furnace can produce 100 tons of steel, and they use this design."

After hearing this, Li Junming immediately opened the drawings. There were many small drawings inside, which were thick. Each one was filled with drawings, and some were filled with numbers.

The two of them watched carefully, while An Zhongsheng explained and supplemented.

"Teacher An."

Li Junming suddenly spoke solemnly, and An Zhongsheng raised his head to look at him.

"Teacher An, you once told us that this is the best opportunity to realize the domestic steel industry and overtake in corners."

"You once said that you would lead us to realize our dream of building a prosperous and powerful motherland."

"Teacher An, now, this opportunity is right in front of you. The opportunity to realize your dream is right in front of you."

"Teacher An, we need you."

Li Junming said sincerely, and Li Lei also stepped forward, "Teacher An, you don't have to worry about job transfers. As long as you are willing, Red Star Machinery Factory will take care of it. Also, your family will also be accommodated. Our steel factory has It’s a family home and children can go to school, all free of charge.”

After the two of them finished speaking, they both looked at An Zhongsheng solemnly.

On the side, the wife put down the kitchen knife and looked at An Zhongsheng nervously.

In her mind, she will support every decision of her husband.

But this time, she also hopes that her husband can go to the steel factory, not only for the sake of the family, but more importantly, to realize her husband's inner ambition.

An Zhongsheng suddenly laughed, looked at his wife and children on the side, and said loudly, "Ahua, cut into large pieces of meat and stir-fry two vegetables."

"Also, brother, use the money to buy wine."

After saying that, he looked at Li Lei and Li Junming and said, "You are right, I am halfway through my life."

"The remaining half will be given to the Red Star Steel Plant."

"Okay, great, Teacher An, you agreed, great."

Li Junming said loudly, almost jumping with excitement.

He knew that the task assigned by Mr. Yang, the steel plant, was expected to be completed.

"okay."

"oh oh…"

Then came the laughter of children.

Several people laughed.

An Zhongsheng looked at Li Junming again, and all three of them laughed.

"Come, tell me, Red Star, Machinery Factory."

"Okay, Teacher An."

"I don't know much about this Hongxing Machinery Factory. It was originally the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill."

In the afternoon of that day, Li Lei ran to the town to get in touch with Hongcheng Steel Factory, and then Guan Zhiyong immediately contacted Yang Xiaotao to explain the situation.

machinery factory.

When Li Lei and the others found An Zhongsheng, Yang Xiaotao and others were having a meeting in the office.

In addition to the senior management of the machinery factory, the meeting participants also included Xu Yuanshan from the chemical factory.

Therefore, the theme of this meeting is to discuss petrochemical issues.

"Uncle Xu, please hurry up on the oil matter. The current production will soon be unsatisfactory."

Yang Xiaotao looked at the plans submitted by the chemical plant. Although the focus began to shift, the petroleum equipment was not large and the output was limited.

Moreover, the number of chemical reagents required is not small. Fortunately, the chemical factory can afford it.

"Yes, I know."

"That's exactly what I'm going to say."

Xu Yuanshan took out a plan from his arms and placed it on the table.

"I'm going to build a new distillation tower next to it."

Yang Xiaotao took it over and looked at it.

"Distillation tower?"

Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning looked on in shock.

"Lao Xu, the distillation tower is not a small thing. Have you thought about it?"

Yang Youning held a cigarette in his mouth, but Chen Gong, who was taking care of his cold, did not light it.

Liu Huaimin also nodded, "The distillation tower is not just a simple matter of building, it also needs to be supplemented with equipment. Can you handle it?"

Xu Yuanshan nodded, "I contacted Northwest about the equipment problem. They have a set that was eliminated by the alliance. Although it is a bit worn, it shouldn't be a problem to repair it."

Having said this, Xu Yuanshan looked at Yang Xiaotao, this was also his confidence.

He believed that as long as Yang Xiaotao took action, these equipment could be repaired.

Several people around him also looked over, and feeling the gaze on them, Yang Xiaotao nodded helplessly, "I'll try my best."

Xu Yuanshan laughed and then explained, "Yes, the original distillation tower was too small, which limited the speed. If the chemical plant wants to keep up with the development speed of the machinery plant, this distillation tower must be built."

Xu Yuanshan affirmed, "With this distillation tower, we can triple the production. If it is saturated, it is not a problem to produce [-] tons per day, which can ensure the consumption of all departments."

Yang Xiaotao pondered silently, building a distillation tower like this is not a small project, it is bigger than building a workshop in a machinery factory.

However, Xu Yuanshan is right. To keep up with the pace of machinery factories, chemical plants must expand their scale and increase production capacity.

Otherwise, the chemical plant will become the wooden board on which the machinery plant will take off in the future.

"can!"

Yang Xiaotao thought about it carefully, finally looked at Liu Huaimin and others, and then gave a positive answer.

Seeing this, Xu Yuanshan breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Yang Xiaotao agrees, as the chief designer, the plan has a [-]% chance of passing.

Sure enough, Liu Huaimin saw that Yang Xiaotao agreed and nodded with Yang Youning.

Soon everyone reached a consensus.

"I will report this matter to Mr. Xia later and treat it as the most important thing in the machinery factory."

As Liu Huaimin said, Yang Xiaotao thought of something, "Old Liu, there happens to be a project at the steel plant, so you can apply for it too."

"Huh? What's going on at the steel plant?"

"By the way, it's you who has been doing that oxygen and converter thing in the past few days?"

Yang Youning asked, and Yang Xiaotao nodded.

"Yes, it's called an oxygen top-blown converter. It improves efficiency and reduces energy consumption by pouring oxygen from above!"

"This thing, like the distillation tower, once built, will be a qualitative leap in terms of steel production."

Liu Huaimin and others did not expect Yang Xiaotao's evaluation to be so high.

For a moment, the room was a little too quiet.

No one expected that Yang Xiaotao would leave quietly and cause a big incident.

Snapped!
Yang Youning suddenly clapped his hands, "Just in time, bring these two plans forward together."

"I think, let's call it Project Gemini."

"The Gemini Project of Red Star Machinery Factory. Haha!"

Yang Xiaotao immediately rolled his eyes, "Damn you, you're really good."
