Scholars in the courtyard

The next day, it was dark.

The old Taoist woke up from his sleep, stretched himself, and got off the kang.

His biological clock has kept him living a very regular life for many years.

"Snowing?"

Through the window, I looked at the white snow outside.

There was even a thick layer of snow on the front row of houses.

"The snow came very early this year."

As he spoke, he counted on his fingers, "It's about time it snowed. It's already past light snow."

Thinking of this, the old man folded the quilt, then took the broom and prepared to go out to clear the snow.

At least, sweep the snow away from the door.

brush
The snow was swept away, and not long after physical activity started, people came out of the yard, said hello and started to sweep away the snow.

I was thinking about going home to heat up a meal and going to the street office later to see if I could be of any help.

"Old way!"

Yang Xiaotao's voice came from behind. The old Taoist turned around and saw Yang Xiaotao walking quickly with a smile on his face.

"Let's go, come with me."

"Uh, where are you going?"

"Where are we going? Of course we are going to report. Let's hurry up and we can still catch up with breakfast."

"Huh? Report, what report."

The old Taoist looked suspicious, always feeling that it was not a good thing.

"Look, you drank too much last night, and you broke out, right? You promised me to go to the machine factory to help."

Yang Xiaotao said seriously, but the old man was even more suspicious.

"Go to the machine shop? What did I promise you to do?"

The old man thought it would be better to go back home, where he felt safer.

However, Yang Xiaotao took two steps forward and pulled the old man out, "Have you forgotten what you promised me?"

"Okay, let me remind you."

"You said that making any alloy is as easy as making an alchemy. I said I didn't believe it, so you told me a lot of alchemy formulas. Especially when you talked about the days of making alchemy with your master, you looked so excited."

Yang Xiaotao said vividly, but his footsteps kept moving, and the old man was half pulled and half pushed by him through the Moon Gate.

"Did I say so?"

"Speaking of which, you also told me that your master has a Taoist name called Danyangzi."

When Yang Xiaotao said this, the old man thought it was true.

After all, not many people know the master's Taoist name. He should have said it last night.

But, why didn't he have any impression of Yang Xiaotao's promise?

In fact, when the old Taoist talked about his previous experience in alchemy, it was more of a kind of regret, a regret that he should not let the master take pills.

It's not like what Yang Xiaotao said at all.

But he had long forgotten these.

"No, please explain clearly, what am I going to do?"

Seeing that he had exited the Weeping Flower Gate, and many people in the courtyard were watching, the old man quickly stopped and stopped moving forward.

His intuition told him that it was all right.

"What for? Of course I'm helping with the alloy! You promised me personally and you won't go back on your word!"

Yang Xiaotao answered firmly, looking businesslike.

The old Taoist was also frightened by Yang Xiaotao's words, "Um, really?"

"Of course it's true. You still don't believe in my character?"

"Old Taoist, our friendship is here, how can I still lie to you?"

Yang Xiaotao said, but the old Taoist nodded affirmatively.

"You kid, you got me drunk on purpose last night. You're holding something bad in your heart."

"Old Taoist, if you think like this, it makes me very sad."

"Tch! I believe you and Tou."

As he was about to walk into the house, Yang Xiaotao quickly stopped him.

"Old Taoist, I knew you would regret it. Now, look at this."

A piece of paper was placed in front of Zhang Laodao, "It is clearly stated on it that you, Comrade Zhang Dedao, will become the deputy leader of the alloy research group of the Red Star Machinery Factory!"

"Look below, here, for your signature."

Yang Xiaotao pointed to the words in the notebook and spoke word by word, and clicked on the bottom. A crooked signature should be his!
"It doesn't count, it doesn't count!"

Zhang Laodao said, and then saw Yang Xiaotao folding the paper and putting it in the bag.

"It doesn't matter whether it counts or not. It's written in black and white. Let's go."

"From now on, you will be from the machine factory!"

"We are all revolutionary comrades. We must have consciousness in the future. Don't you always say that you need to experience the world of mortals? This machinery factory is the world of mortals, and this alloy smelting is your melting pot."

"Come on, let me treat you to breakfast this morning."

With that said, Yang Xiaotao pulled the old man who was still in a daze out of the door and came to the jeep.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao cleaning the snow on the car, Lao Tao finally understood that he had already been tricked when Yang Xiaotao came to find him yesterday.

"I don't regret the beginning!"

The old Taoist touched a handful of snow from the stone lion at the door and rubbed it on his face.

At this point, Yang Xiaotao has used such methods. If the goal is not achieved, there are other despicable methods.

Rather than causing an unpleasant scene in the end, it would be better to agree now.

Anyway, he didn't know how to make alloy.

Refining elixirs, but still remembering the steps.

After the car was cleaned, Yang Xiaotao smiled and pulled Lao Dao into the car. Two long marks were pressed out of the snow, and he went to the machinery factory.

Jia family.

Jia Zhang looked at Qin Huairu, rubbing her head against the door frame.

Qin Huairu went to buy soy sauce last night, but when she came back, she said that the supply and marketing cooperative had closed early and she couldn't buy it.

But this rhetoric made her very suspicious.

Especially the flirtatious smell of the other party, which is definitely not normal.

Now, Mrs. Jia Zhang looks more and more displeased with Qin Huairu.

bang bang
My head hit the door frame twice. It was cold today and the door frame was cold and it hurt when I bumped it.

Only in this way can the pain in the brain be relieved.

'I need to go to the hospital. Why, it's getting more and more painful. '

In the house, BangGeng reluctantly got up and prepared to go out to school.

Qin Huairu is also going to go to the street to get some scraps of cloth and go back to work.

Nowadays, Hongxing Primary School has strict management and pays close attention to students. Those who go to school in the morning must go to early reading in advance, and those who go to school in the afternoon must stay for self-study.

BangGeng goes to school in the morning this week, so he has to get up early.

After Qin Huairu shouted again and again, Banggan got dressed, took a wowotou and went out.

crunch
With his feet on the snow, Banggeng chose the white areas to walk, as if destroying the beauty of snow-white would make him feel better.

"Fantastic!"

Suddenly there was a voice from behind, and Bangge stopped and looked back at the person.

Then he saw Liu Guangqi walking over wrapped in a large scarf.He tilted his head and glanced at Liu Guangqi, "Uncle Liu, are you calling me?"

"Are you going to school?"

"Yes, you have to go so early. If you go late, you will be punished by standing still."

Banggeng said unhappily, Liu Guangqi walked up to him, but took out an egg from his pocket and stretched it out in front of Banggeng.

"Here, eat."

Banggian's eyes were shining. He couldn't feel full after eating steamed buns in the morning, and there was still no taste in his mouth. How could he refuse at this time? He took the still a little hot egg and immediately felt his palms warm.

"Uncle, you are so kind."

At the machinery factory, Yang Xiaotao drove up. The workers who had arrived early were cleaning their respective sanitary areas, and the roads were filled with snow on both sides.

Yang Xiaotao parked the car, took Lao Tao to the cafeteria, finished his meal and then came to the office.

Along the way, Lao Dao's expression kept changing, and Yang Xiaotao could see that Lao Dao was struggling in his heart.

In fact, if I hadn't been helpless, I wouldn't have wanted to find the veteran.

As you get older, it's time to take a rest.

So Yang Xiaotao made up his mind to just let the old man come up with ideas and do the dirty work without him.

"Secretary Liu, this is Comrade Zhang Dedao, who once presided over the Northwest."

In the secretary's office, Yang Xiaotao introduced Zhang Dedao's situation. Zhang Laodao stood quietly aside with a gentle smile on his face, which seemed a bit like a fairy.

"Hello, hello, Comrade Zhang Dedao."

Hearing Yang Xiaotao talk about the northwest, Liu Huaimin quickly stood up and shook hands warmly.

"This comrade has experience in smelting metals, so I want him to join the machinery factory and serve as the deputy leader of the research team to assist in the work."

When Yang Xiaotao told him his purpose, Zhang Laodao was disdainful. He said he had experience in smelting metals, so you could just say that you can make elixirs.

Now Zhang Dedao hopes that Liu Huaimin will feel that he is old and return the goods directly, so that he does not have to worry about Yang Xiaotao's attitude.

"Okay, okay, our machinery factory warmly welcomes comrades who are capable and willing to contribute to the national revolution."

Liu Huaimin was very enthusiastic. This man was probably older than him, but his consciousness was not low.

"Comrade Zhang Dedao, welcome."

Unexpectedly, Liu Huaimin did not care about playing his cards according to the rules, which completely shattered the illusion of the veteran.

We can only make peace with it as it comes.

"Hello, Secretary Liu. Thank you for your affirmation."

The two shook hands cordially and friendly.

Now, Lao Dao's entry into the machinery factory was confirmed.

Then Yang Xiaotao took Lao Dao to go through the personnel procedures.

With Yang Xiaotao accompanying me, the procedures were very smooth and fast.

By mid-morning, everything was done.

Immediately, Zhang Laodao started working in the machinery factory.

Two days later.

On Saturday, Director Tian from the Seventh Machinery Department led four young men and women to the machinery factory.

As the landowner's representative, Yang Xiaotao warmly welcomed the visitors.

These four people are the next interns.

Although it is an internship, the work remuneration is not low, and it has already reached the level of a second-level fitter.

Of course, this is also an effort to retain talent.

"Director Tian, ​​thank you for your visit."

"It's not hard. Apart from being a little cold, everything else is fine."

The two went to Jinling in the south together, and they were quite familiar with each other.

After putting people down, Director Tian refused to enter the factory to eat. Instead, he asked the driver to turn around and leave quickly.

The only people left there who came to greet him were the four people standing there uneasily.

"Hello, I am Yang Xiaotao, and next I will be your team leader."

Yang Xiaotao came forward to say hello. When the four of them heard that the person in front of them was the team leader, and they had also inquired about Yang Xiaotao, he was definitely a big shot in the machinery factory.

Although he is not much older than them.

But knowing Yang Xiaotao's past, few people saw him as a peer.

If you can follow this person, you will definitely achieve something.

"Would you please introduce yourselves?"

"Yes, Captain."

"My name is Wang Lili"

"My name is Zhao Chuan."

"I am Zhan Pusheng"

"My name is Liu Buchan"

The four people were introduced in turn, and Yang Xiaotao also knew the situation of these four people.

Sure enough, the four people's job in the Seventh Machinery Department was to develop aero-engines. However, there were too many people doing this job, and they usually worked part-time on steel materials for ships, so they were sent here.

Of course, there is something about their alloy smelting that Yang Xiaotao values.

That is the tireless spirit of exploration. They themselves said that after receiving the task, they soaked in the library and left only after knowing that today was coming.

Even so, each of them had basic library books on them.

Yang Xiaotao is very satisfied with this.

Those who are willing to learn and endure hardship will always be favored by God.

"This is Comrade Zhang Dedao, the deputy team leader."

Zhang Dedao looked at the four slightly incompetent people in front of him and welcomed them with a smile.

Then everyone returned to Yang Xiaotao's office, and Lou Xiao'e took the four people to the personnel department to go through the accommodation procedures and receive supplies.

Then two Zhuozi were placed in the office, and several people studied them first.

In the next few days, the four of them basically came to the machinery factory to study and read in the office.

In this environment, the old Taoist also dug out some alchemy books from home and began to study them carefully.

During this period, Yang Xiaotao was busy designing the drawings of the two-cylinder engine, and he didn't have many tasks for a few people. Anyway, he was good at reading.

At the end of the month, there was finally news from Mr. Xia.

In the middle of the afternoon, Director Liu sent three students.

Like Wang Lili and the other four, they are all freshly graduated college students, and this time they come here for an internship.

The difference is that the three of them come from the same school, Sijiucheng University of Science and Technology.

Also a common major, metallurgical engineering.

The leader among them is a student named Xu Ning, who has very good grades in school.

There are two people left, one is named Chen Yongsen and the other is named Zang Wei.

The three of them are equally young and full of passion.

At this point, the alloy research team under the leadership of Yang Xiaotao finally gathered together.

So this team, which later developed a series of alloys and achieved results one after another, was officially established.

And when people later talked about the glory, who knew that this was once a patchwork team?A team that people don’t expect?

Even if the person inside now, only Yang Xiaotao knows about it.

Perhaps, many years later, Yang Xiaotao will sigh with regret when talking about this past event.

But now, who knows what the future will bring.
