Scholars in the courtyard

Chapter 1040: Expectations
Zhang Lao thought about the demand from his superiors for the Second Machinery Department after the mushrooms were grown. With bullets, it was natural to have matching guns.

And the oil filled in these guns is all liquid fuel.

The people in the Second Machinery Department were considered 'crazy' at this time, working desperately to the point that the liquid oxygen reserves could not keep up with the other party's experimental progress.

She had complained to him more than once about not having enough fuel, but what could he do?
He is not a god, nor can he conjure it up with nothing.

Therefore, the experimental progress of the Second Machinery Department has been restricted. The superior leaders have come to coordinate, but the factory is now at full capacity, and people can be replaced. But there is only one machine, and it is still an antique. It is the only thing. Whoever uses it wears it out. Sorry, I can't bear this responsibility.

What else can I do?
As he said, with so many factories across the country, why are only 568 factories able to produce liquid oxygen?
Why doesn’t any factory take the initiative to develop compressors?

The office director understood what Mr. Zhang meant, but he became even more confused after he understood it, "Chief, what does this have to do with the request of the First Machinery Department?"

"Chief, you don't want to..."

Mr. Zhang nodded and looked at the names on the report. "Yang Xiaotao. This guy can imitate it with a broken machine tool in the northwest, so why not this time?"

The office director was silent.

I am even more curious about Yang Xiaotao.

Mr. Zhang didn't say anything more. He reached for the pen and signed his name on the report.

At the end of the day, I was still whispering in my mind, just return the favor with the diesel engine drawings at that time!
The office director pressed the file and was about to leave. Mr. Zhang suddenly thought of something and asked, "This time you will follow me to Jinling. Keep an eye on me, but don't interfere, as long as the other party doesn't dismantle the compressor."

The office director nodded and left.

After the director left, Mr. Zhang leaned back on his chair.

After sitting in this position for a long time, some things have been pressing on my heart. Over time, my back has become rickety.

Thinking of the engines being researched in the northeast hangar, the aircraft in the wind tunnel in the west, and the liquid oxygen manufacturing just mentioned, there are many more problems that need to be solved urgently.

All of this requires him to preside over, control, and take the lead.

Now he is a little envious of Xiao Huang from the First Machinery Department, because he has so many capable people under his command that he doesn't need to worry about how to do it himself, but his subordinates will hand over the finished work to him for review.

Just like the Gemini Project proposed by the other party, it is no longer limited to mechanical research, but has expanded to surrounding areas to promote the infrastructure construction of the industry.

This step is a wonderful one.

It's a pity that he doesn't have such people under his command.

Therefore, he looked forward to Yang Xiaotao, hoping that Yang Xiaotao could solve the problem of the liquid oxygen machine and lighten the burden on his shoulders.

Just thinking of Yang Xiaotao, this is the heart of the First Machinery Department, and he has no ability to snatch food from the tiger's mouth.

Thinking of this, Mr. Zhang opened the drawer again and took out a roster.

This is the resettlement plan for personnel in the northwest.

As a meritorious personnel of the country, proper arrangements must be made.

And among these people, they are all capable, so naturally their Third Machinery Department takes a fancy to them.

However, considering the wishes of the personnel, their Third Aircraft Department can only send out invitations, and it is not yet certain whether they can come.

Mr. Zhang flipped through it for a while, and finally stopped at one page.

The protagonist here is very familiar.

"With this, it's all the same!"

He didn't believe that his son-in-law dared not listen to his father-in-law.

machinery factory.

Yang Xiaotao stood in the workshop, looking at the nozzle coming off the semi-automatic milling machine. An Zhongsheng hurriedly stepped forward to check it.

Beside him, Liu Daming and others were also curious about what such a complicated nozzle was used for.

Yang Xiaotao did not explain, but looked at An Zhongsheng's careful inspection.

"Mr. Yang, there's no problem. You can go back and try."

An Zhongsheng said, Yang Xiaotao nodded, took out cigarettes and distributed them to Liu Daming and others, "Thank you for your hard work, go back and rest early!"

Liu Daming and others lit up their cigarettes and were not in a hurry to go home. Instead, they smiled and said, "Mr. Yang, what are these things for?"

"This thing is used for making steel."

"Steelmaking? Mr. Yang, do you also have research on this?"

"What are you talking about? Mr. Yang knows a lot about it. What's wrong with steelmaking? He's from a machinery factory, too."

"Go, go, go, Hou Liangdao, why are you everywhere?"

Several people were chatting and laughing aside. An Zhongsheng saw that everyone was not restrained. The atmosphere was very harmonious.

"What kind of research? It's just a starting point. How to do it specifically requires comrades to work together."

Yang Xiaotao waved his hand. He knew how much he weighed. In steelmaking, without help from the system, he was no better than a skilled worker.

However, Yang Xiaotao's busy work these days is not in vain. When he has time, he reads books related to the steel industry.

Sometimes I would ask for advice when I arrived at the site, and I could get a rough idea of ​​the operation of the steel plant.

"Mr. Yang!"

While everyone was talking, shouts suddenly came from outside the factory.

Everyone looked at the sound and saw Yang Youning's secretary, Xiao Qiang, running towards him outside the workshop. As soon as he got closer, without waiting for Yang Xiaotao to ask, he hurriedly said, "Mr. Yang, Mr. Xia is here and waiting in the office!"

After Yang Xiaotao heard this, he immediately walked to the office.

When he came to the office, he knocked on the door and entered. Yang Youning was talking to Mr. Xia in the room. When he saw Yang Xiaotao coming, he hurriedly waved forward.

"Mr. Xia!" Mr. Xia nodded, looked at Yang Xiaotao for a while and then laughed.

"sit down!"

After Yang Xiaotao sat down, Mr. Xia spoke up, "I heard that you recently built a steel-making furnace? All the calls from the Finance Bureau were made to Lao Huang, saying that you stole someone they liked?"

After hearing this, Yang Xiaotao spread his hands and said, "Boss, it's unfair. This person has been there for many years without anyone looking after him, and they won't look for him."

"Why did we find the person who robbed them? This is obviously unreasonable!"

Mr. Xia laughed after hearing this, and felt relieved by hearing these words.

The people in the Metallurgical Bureau are not good at doing anything, and they are still occupying resources. If they are asked to bleed, they will squeal like a slaughtered pig.

"Okay, if you get an advantage, don't sell it."

"That man was considered a great person at the beginning. If you can drag him into the machine factory, you have merit."

Mr. Xia said, and Yang Xiaotao smiled.

He hurriedly took out a small circle from his bag with a five-pointed star painted on the outside. He placed it in front of the table and handed it to Mr. Xia. Yang Youning looked at it with jealousy. It was said that Yang Xiaotao got this thing from the table at the party.

The cigarettes here are for special use.

He had obviously been hinting at it secretly for a long time, but he hadn't tasted one yet, and now he finally had the chance.Mr. Xia was not polite when he saw it. He pulled out the lid and saw that there was still a lot inside. He took out one and lit it. The room was filled with smoke.

"What do you think on the other side of the steel factory?" Mr. Xia took a few puffs and got to the point.Yang Xiaotao immediately announced the plan for the oxygen top-blown converter, and of course also explained the specific situation.

Yang Youning listened without interrupting. He really didn't understand steelmaking.

"I heard that the Metallurgical Bureau is also making preparations for this matter, and they will take action this time."

"They also want to start blowing and converting mines!"

"Nine times out of ten, otherwise the higher-ups would keep calling for people for several days in a row?"

Yang Xiaotao nodded, "They do a good job. As long as one party succeeds, this project will be successful!"

Mr. Xia shook his head, "This is exactly the purpose of my coming."

"I don't know how the other party can solve the problem, but you have to hurry up here."

Yang Xiaotao didn't understand.

"It's all Lao Huang's fault. He reported your Gemini project, but the superiors didn't know what to think and included it in the observation project. It can be said that they have a competitive relationship with the Metallurgical Bureau."

"What Lao Huang and I are saying is that instead of steaming steamed buns to fight for reputation, now that your plans are out, let's make some achievements and see."

Yang Xiaotao looked at Yang Youning, and he didn't expect that the items he randomly added to make up the numbers would include such things.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao looking over, he quickly turned around.

This is a good thing, but it must be done.

"Chief, are you saying that the Metallurgical Bureau will compete with us? But we just want to increase production and have never thought about it!" Yang Xiaotao felt aggrieved.

"If we had known they were going to do it, what would we be busy with? It would be ready when it is ready!"

Hearing what Yang Xiaotao said, Mr. Xia was also very helpless. Who allowed such a boss to be in the stall? It seems that the achievements of the First Machinery Department this time have made Mr. Huang a little proud.

But now is not the time to talk about this, we still have to argue.

Seeing that Mr. Xia didn't speak, Yang Youning interrupted.

"Things are already like this. It's useless to talk about it."

When it comes to competition, he is quick to compete and wins every time, which makes him confident.

"Besides, why should I give it to you if it's made by others? Don't you always say that it's better to rely on others than to rely on yourself? Only when we make it ourselves can we use it with confidence."

After Yang Ning finished speaking, Mr. Xia was relieved. This was a good realization.

Seeing that Yang Xiaotao didn't refute, he continued, "Xiao Yang is right, it has been like this this time, and there is no way to stop."

"I understand." Yang Xiaotao also adjusted his expression.

Seeing this, Mr. Xia continued to speak.

"I know there are many difficulties involved, and whatever the ministry can solve will be solved, but this aspect mainly depends on you."

"Regarding the issue of liquid oxygen, Lao Huang has already established a relationship. You can go to Jinling tomorrow!"

"tomorrow?"

Yang Xiaotao was not ready yet. He was about to go all of a sudden, too soon.

"The 9 o'clock train tomorrow morning, Tian Haipeng, the office director of the Three Machinery Department, will accompany you."

"Can you bring someone?"

"No, it's just you."

"Attention, this operation is confidential. Don't say much when you get there, and don't ask about anything other than related tasks..."

Mr. Xia warned again.

Yang Xiaotao nodded. He was already used to business trips, but this trip was more about studying. It was completely different from before, and he was a little worried.

"How long?"

"You can only stay there for two days!"

“Two days and two nights!”

"right!"

Yang Xiaotao's heart sank. What could he do in two days and two nights?
I guess it will take half the time just to understand it after reading it!
"This is the maximum time you can buy!"

"For this opportunity, the superiors also took a lot of risks. After all, it is too important."

Yang Xiaotao nodded and understood.

Mr. Xia explained again, then stood up and left.

Yang Xiaotao talked to Yang Youning about the situation. After returning to the office, he picked up the phone and called Yangjiazhuang.

Explain the situation to Ran Qiuye. He is on a business trip this week and cannot go back.

Yang Xiaotao didn't say clearly where Ran Qiuyejian was going. He just said that the factory arranged a trip to Quancheng.

Ran Qiuye was used to it and just asked Yang Xiaotao to go out and take care of himself.

The two talked for a while, and Yang Xiaotao left the office. He first asked the team to send a car to take An Zhongsheng and the finished nozzles back to the steel plant, and then drove back to the courtyard.

The next morning, Yang Xiaotao placed all the important items at home in the system space. He was worried about being away for so long.

And this time Xiaowei also went together.

There are so many 'treasures' in the house and I can't afford to lose any of them.

I took some clothes and put them in my bag, took them to the car, and then left the courtyard.

Only a few or two people in the machinery factory knew about Yang Xiaotao's business trip, so people in the hospital didn't think much about it.

After leaving the courtyard, Yang Xiaotao first went to the machinery factory and met Tian Haipeng, the accompanying director of the Third Machinery Department Office, at the guard office.

The man is about forty years old, of medium height, thin, with slender eyes, short hair and a white long-sleeved shirt, which makes him look particularly energetic.

Perhaps it was a secret trip. Only Zhao Chuanjun was with the guard here, and none of Liu Huaimin came.

"Hello, Director Tian, ​​I am Yang Xiaotao."

Yang Xiaotao came forward to see him. Tian Haipeng looked at Yang Xiaotao in front of him, shook his head and sighed, which made Yang Xiaotao a little confused.

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it."

As he said this, he looked around again. If he hadn't learned about the series of achievements of Yang Xiaotao from the files, he would have thought that he was the child next door.

"I didn't expect you to be so young."

Yang Xiaotao was a little embarrassed, and then said seriously, "Indeed, this troubles me a lot. It would be nice if I could change my date of birth."

"When the time comes, he will be a middle-aged man anyway."

Haha
Tian Haipeng laughed and suddenly felt that this journey would be interesting.
