Scholars in the courtyard

Chapter 1053 That touch of light blue

An Zhongsheng on the side heard the conversation between the two, and in addition to being shocked, he also felt a sense of recognition.

The last time he went to the machinery factory to process oxygen guns, he discovered that Yang Xiaotao had a high status among the workers.

Now it seems that that status is definitely not obtained because of the identity of the chief designer, but earned by one's own strength and ability.

Thinking of this, An Zhongsheng suddenly had full confidence in Yang Xiaotao's air compressor.

Perhaps this is the next step in the plan.

An Zhongsheng thought silently and followed the others to wait in front of the workshop.

Just before noon, a motorcade arrived at the steel plant.

Guan Zhiyong immediately brought people forward to greet him, but when he saw Mr. Xia, he immediately became serious. This was the biggest leader he had ever seen.

"Leader, you are welcome to inspect..."

Guan Zhiyong suppressed his excitement and stepped forward to greet him. Mr. Xia nodded, and then Yang Xiaotao, who was standing aside, introduced everyone in the steel plant to Mr. Xia.

When he was introduced to An Zhongsheng, Mr. Xia knew that this person was a talent that Yang Xiaotao had finally found. "Comrade An Zhongsheng, don't have ideological baggage here. As long as you have the people in your heart and think about revolutionary construction, no one will forget you." contribute."

An Zhongsheng nodded excitedly, then nodded again.

Perhaps after experiencing that bitterness, you can feel how valuable this respect is.

After solving the difficulties in life, he recognized the steel factory and the machinery factory more.

Now, when he returns home, he is greeted by a smile on his wife's face. They no longer need to dip their chopsticks in oil, and they can also eat meat.

Taking a deep breath and looking at Yang Xiaotao walking away, An Zhongsheng felt very calm.

Afterwards, after everyone had met, Yang Xiaotao asked about the situation in the preparation workshop. Guan Zhiyong said that everything was ready, so Yang Xiaotao asked Mr. Xia for instructions.

Mr. Xia shook his head, "You make the decision today, we are just spectators, spectators ready to applaud."

Everyone laughed after hearing this, and the tense atmosphere eased a lot.

Yang Xiaotao then began to direct the operation, asking people to unload the machine parts from the vehicle and then place them in the production workshop.

Then I took someone to prepare for the installation.

This time Yang Xiaotao took action himself, and the only people who entered were Zhang Guanyu, An Zhongsheng and Li Tiejun.

Outside the glass window, Mr. Xia and his party were all watching what was going on inside.

Watching Yang Xiaotao place the parts into categories and then assemble them step by step, especially the process of making something from scratch, is a joy to watch.

Yang Xiaotao moved very quickly, and before long, an air compressor that had never been seen before was quickly formed.

The people on the outside can't see the table and stand on it. The people who can't get in can only listen to what the people in front of them say about the situation.

Many people in front sat on the ground in order to clear their view.

As time goes by, the machines in front of people are becoming more and more stylish, and the general outline has been developed.

Yang Youning and others looked at the time. It was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and they unknowingly forgot to eat.

He wanted to ask Mr. Xia to come back after dinner, but seeing Mr. Xia's appearance, it was probably useless to say so.

"Uncle Li, how about the electrical equipment!"

Yang Xiaotao tightened a screw and then asked Li Tiejun beside him.

"The inspection is complete. There are no problems with the equipment and wiring."

Finally, I added, "It can be installed!"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath, now the only thing missing was the power part.

Looking at the machine in front of him and the people watching closely through the window outside, Yang Xiaotao knew that the matter had come to this and he could no longer hesitate.

"An Gong will let people prepare."

An Zhongsheng nodded and signaled to Li Lei outside, Li Lei went out and asked everyone in all aspects to start getting ready.

"Pack!"

As Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Li Tiejun immediately led people to install it.

After a while, the power equipment was installed, and then the circuit began to be connected.

Around 02:30, everything ended.

In the room, Li Tiejun, An Zhongsheng and others stood aside and watched.

Outside the room, everyone's eyes were focused on Yang Xiaotao.

But Yang Xiaotao was wearing glasses and looked around the machine again and again.

Finally, he took it off and nodded to Mr. Xia outside, and asked Li Tiejun to turn on the power.

Li Tiejun immediately closed the switch and then stepped forward to turn on the engine switch.

In an instant, in front of everyone, the machine that was quiet just now suddenly made a buzzing sound. This sound was completely different from what Yang Xiaotao heard in Jinling, but it was the sound that the machine should have.

It worked!
At this moment, even though he knew in his heart that he would be able to do it, Yang Xiaotao felt a sense of surprise.

popping...

Fierce and loud applause came from outside, covering up the sound of the machine.

It also brought Yang Xiaotao back to his senses.

Looking up, I saw Mr. Xia raising his hands in front of his head, clapping vigorously, looking at Yang Xiaotao with joy.

Yang Youning opened the door excitedly, rushed in and gave Yang Xiaotao a hug. He knew that with this machine, the machinery factory would start new projects in the future.

Yang Xiaotao also patted Yang Youning on the back, and then shook hands with Liu Huaimin and others behind him to celebrate.

It wasn't until Mr. Xia walked in that Yang Xiaotao stepped forward and said, "Boss, the air compressor has been made."

"The next step is to look at the preparation of liquid oxygen!"

"Okay! I'm waiting for your good news here."

Mr. Xia smiled, his eyes filled with anticipation.

"Director, let everyone take action."

After Yang Xiaotao told Guan Zhiyong, Guan Zhiyong, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately ran out and waved to everyone.

Soon, the entire workshop was in action.

Outside the workshop, as the air collector is opened, the air is sucked in like a collector, and then enters the workshop through simple filtration. Then it is continuously worked by the air compressor through the pipeline. The pressure of the compressed air continues to increase, and the temperature is also rising. high.Yang Xiaotao clenched his fists on the side, especially as the pressure and temperature increased, for fear of problems.

If there is a problem with the tightness at this time, the compressor will be in vain.

Fortunately, the compressor withstood the high temperature and pressure. After the workers checked the pressure table and found the effect, they immediately opened the pipeline, and the compressed air then entered the condensation tower, where a series of cooling steps were performed until liquid oxygen appeared.

The compressor works continuously and continues to send compressed air into the condensation tower.

The next step is to wait.

When we were in Jinling, although the compressor only worked for one and a half hours, it would take at least half an hour for the liquid oxygen to come out.

During this period, liquid oxygen is produced using the principle of hot and cold exchange.

Mr. Xia nodded and asked about the status of liquid oxygen production. Most people were not clear about this.

Originally, Yang Youning wanted everyone to go to the cafeteria to eat. After all, it was already past meal time. He and others were okay. Mr. Xia was getting older. He was worried that he would not be able to keep up with his energy. However, he didn't want Mr. Xia to refuse with a smile and said that if not Understand that if you are pretending to be something, you won’t be able to eat it.

There was no other way, Yang Xiaotao had no choice but to ask Guan Zhiyong to ask someone to find some fruits. Guan Zhiyong immediately arranged for them to go, and at the same time, he asked the canteen to be ready to serve food at any time.

Then Yang Xiaotao took everyone to explain in the workshop based on the production techniques he saw and learned during his trip to Jinling.

"Leader, comrades, we are now using the low-temperature air separation method, which is to fractionate the air at low temperature and high pressure, using the different boiling points of the components in the air, and through a series of complex purification processes, we finally get what we want. Liquid oxygen.”

"There are two main problems in this. Of course, they have been overcome now. The ability to produce liquid oxygen in Jinling shows that we have the ability to produce qualified liquid oxygen."

Yang Xiaotao said, Mr. Xia nodded, and Chen Gong on the side asked those two questions. Yang Xiaotao gave Peng Na a thumbs up in his heart.

"The first issue is the production process of each link. Because the entire link needs to be operated in strict accordance with the regulations, in this regard, our comrades in the steel plant have been able to operate the equipment qualifiedly after a series of trainings."

Guan Zhiyong and others puffed up their chests, but put the anxiety of these days behind them.

Of course the effort is worth it for success.

Otherwise, Mr. Xia would come to their place?

The steel factory is finally going to rise.

"The second one is air compression equipment. Not only does it need to meet the requirements for accuracy and tightness, it also needs to be able to withstand high temperatures and high pressures."

After Yang Xiaotao finished explaining, he went straight to the starting point regardless of whether everyone understood or not.

"This gas collection device also has a function of preliminary filtering and removing impurities in the air."

Yang Xiaotao took everyone to understand the process and explained it at the same time.

Mr. Xia and others couldn't help but nod.

Liu Huaimin suddenly thought of something, "Xiao Tao, you said that after separation, different boiling points can be used for separation. Then liquid oxygen can be made, and liquid nitrogen can also be used."

Yang Xiaotao nodded quickly, "Yes, Secretary Liu, but this requires other techniques."

Liu Huaimin smiled and nodded, "As long as we can produce, that's fine."

Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao thought of something and immediately started laughing.

Guan Zhiyong, who was standing next to him, brightened up after hearing this, "Then if it doesn't happen, can we still produce fertilizer in the future?"

The people around laughed, but no one thought that this thing had such additional benefits.

Unexpectedly, Yang Xiaotao shook his head and said, "Director, liquid nitrogen is liquid nitrogen, not chemical fertilizer. The two are different."

Hearing what Yang Xiaotao said, Guan Zhiyong blushed, and everyone including Yang Youning and Chen Gong also stiffened.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao explained, and everyone finally understood what fertilizer was and what liquid nitrogen was.

"Actually, liquid nitrogen can be used in various fields. It is also possible to make chemical fertilizers as the director said, but it requires a chemical plant to do it. It is a little difficult for your steel plant to do it."

Guan Zhiyong smiled and put away the worry about Xiao Jiujiu in his heart.

Liu Huaimin explained, "This thing has other uses."

As the two explained, everyone nodded regardless of whether they understood or not.

Mr. Xia nodded after hearing this, "Yes, it's like opening up a joint, and other parts will also come alive."

Then he looked at Yang Xiaotao, "But it is this seemingly simple joint. If you don't conquer it, it will become a roadblock. If you don't eliminate it, you won't be able to get through."

"So, comrades, if you want to build a strong motherland, there will be more and more obstacles in your way."

"But don't be afraid. Go up and fight bravely. Be a tiger-fighting hero and kill the tigers that stand in your way and break them."

"Only in this way can revolutionary construction progress and the motherland be prosperous and strong!"

popping...

The applause rang out, and everyone had a dream of a tiger-fighting hero.

Afterwards, everyone continued to visit. On the way to the condensation tower, Li Lei ran over quickly, shouting with a smile as he ran, "It's out, it's out. Liquid oxygen is out."

As the voice fell, everyone quickened their pace.

When everyone came to the condensation tower, they could clearly see through the observation hole that a group of light blue liquid was slowly flowing in the pipe, and as the staff operated, the liquid level gauge in the liquid oxygen storage tank at the end slowed down. rise slowly.

"Success!"

Everyone who had been attracted by the light blue liquid suddenly became excited when they heard this sentence, and the voice quickly spread outside, and soon spread throughout the steel plant.

Yang Youning shook hands with Chen Gong, and Liu Huaimin came to Yang Xiaotao even more excitedly, "It's successful. From now on, we can make liquid oxygen ourselves."

"Success!"

Amid the applause, An Zhongsheng and Li Junming hugged each other.

Even though they had been mentally prepared, they couldn't help but feel excited under this mysterious blue.

The problem of liquid oxygen has been solved, and the problem of converter steelmaking is even less problematic.

"Comrade Yang Xiaotao, congratulations!"

Mr. Xia came to Yang Xiaotao and solemnly stretched out his hand.

Surrounded by Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning, Yang Xiaotao immediately extended his hand and said, "Thank you, leader. Without the support of you and our superiors, we wouldn't be able to do it."

Mr. Xia shook his head, "Our support must be in the right direction."

Then he looked at everyone and thanked him from the bottom of his heart, "Thank you to all the workers who have contributed to this, long live it."

"Long live!"

At this moment, the applause never stopped, and cheers filled the sky.
