Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 1817 This model is not good
After Yang Xiaotao and the other two finished speaking, although Old Xia had no expression on his face, he felt warm in his heart, warmer than the midday sun.

On the contrary, Old Sun heard that the three people were apparently asking for help, but in fact they were offering benefits.

He could see that the married girl had returned to her parents' home, and she brought back meat!
That feeling in my heart.

Just now he said that Old Xia suffered a loss after the machinery factory left.

Now it’s all right, the face was slapped loudly.

The three of them were still talking to Lao Xia, and the expressions on their faces looked like they were acting, and each one was better than the other.

At this time, a smile immediately appeared on Old Xia's face, and then he turned to look at Old Sun, "Old Sun, we have some family matters to attend to, so we won't leave today!"

"As for you, go back first and have some rest."

"I'm old now, and I have a lot of things to do, so I don't want to stay up late."

Mr. Xia spoke kindly, but it sounded so harsh to Mr. Sun's ears.

But now, if he leaves, he would be a fool.

What did these three guys say?

Thresher.

Besides, going back to your parents' home late at night is either for urgent matters or for good things.

This is a great thing right now.

The Academy of Agricultural Sciences gave one thousand machines as a contribution to the machinery factory.

But the latter ones must be promoted.

When these three people found Lao Xia, they openly said that they were looking for someone to help, but in fact they were giving him a gift.

Still a great gift.

Hearing Mr. Xia's voice, Mr. Sun forced a smile.

"Old Xia, look at what you said, it's still early."

"Besides, we are both the same age. I am three months younger than you. If you are not sleepy, how can I be sleepy?"

As Mr. Sun spoke, he walked up to Mr. Xia and looked at Yang Xiaotao and the other two.

"You three don't know, after the machinery factory was separated, Old Xia no longer smiles when he talks."

"We were just talking about this a moment ago. You three didn't even bother to come back and take a look."

"Who knew he'd be back now? Speak of the devil and he'll appear."

Old Sun spoke in a familiar manner, and the three of them were able to laugh at first, but in the end, when they looked at Old Xia's face, which looked even older than last time, they could not help but fall silent.

The digger does not forget to dig the well.

Yang Xiaotao and his team have been able to get to where they are today, all thanks to the support of Mr. Xia.

Back then, when the steel mill attracted attention from superiors because of its various inventions, some people wanted to split up the steel mill and hand over the projects belonging to the steel mill to other people.

At that time, it was Old Xia who defended him, and I heard that he had a fight with someone here for this.

Later it became a machinery factory, which was also due to the strong recommendation of Mr. Xia.

For their machinery factory, Mr. Xia is their eternal superior.

"Okay, let's just listen to him talking nonsense here."

Old Xia pulled Old Sun aside. Just now the three of them were so happy, like kids coming back to show off their achievements, but this guy's words made people feel heartbroken. He can't talk.

"Just now he was making sarcastic remarks, but now he is acting like a good boy."

As Old Xia was talking, Old Sun became unhappy, "Old Xia, I wasn't just being sarcastic. I just saw that you were feeling bad, so I was comforting you in disguise. Do you understand?"

"Nonsense, I feel bad? Chess, I won all three games today."

"Speaking of other things, fourteen to eleven, you are no match for him."

"Will I feel bad?"

Old Xia raised his chin as if to say you are overthinking it.

Pooh!
"Fourteen to eleven, you have the nerve to say that. If you hadn't used biochemical weapons, would I have lost?"

"And the last time before that, it was clearly twelve to twelve, and the last time should have been a draw."

Mr. Sun didn't admit it and immediately became familiar with him.

"Okay, okay, okay, whatever you say is what it is. Go back and have a rest. We need to discuss things."

Mr. Xia didn't want to dwell on this matter, so he urged him on.

"I won't go back."

"Old Xia, I thought you were my brother, but now you want to keep all the good things to yourself. Is there any brother like you?"

Mr. Sun immediately shouted, "Anyway, since we met today, we should split the money in half. This is tradition."

"No matter what you say, I won't leave."

After saying this, Mr. Sun sat down on a chair, crossed his hands over his chest, and had a serious expression, but he had the temperament of a gangster.

Yang Xiaotao and the other two stood quietly by. Liu Ruichao pulled Liu Huaimin aside and whispered in his ear.

Seeing this, Mr. Xia showed a helpless expression on his face and sat in his original position, "Okay, who told you to be thick-skinned."

"I'll count you in for this."

Old Xia pretended to be helpless.

In fact, after Liu Huaimin and the others finished speaking, he realized that the cake this time was a bit big.

There are so many benefits that it’s easy for one person to overeat.

This is not a big deal. If he messes up, he will be too embarrassed to face anyone.

This guy is here, so who else should I look for?

After hearing this, Mr. Sun immediately laughed, "You are such a good brother, and you are so nice. It's worth it that I let you win."

"Bah, you're still giving in. I have real skills."

"Yes, yes, you are really capable, you are the great Xia!"

"But this matter."

"Don't worry, I'll do what I say and I'll definitely do it well and I won't hold you back."

"Lao Niu and his friends"

"Oh, they are too busy recently, let's not disturb them."

“Not very good.”

"What's wrong with that? If we work together, even if Old Huang comes, he will just have to stare blankly."

Old Xia and Old Sun spoke one sentence at a time, and the people around them looked at each other in confusion.

This old man Sun is too arrogant.

Don’t even take Mr. Huang seriously?

The three of them exchanged glances with Liu Ruichao, then gently moved back.

"Oh, by the way, what about that steel mill you mentioned earlier? Is it difficult to manage?"

Mr. Xia looked as if he had suddenly realized something, and the people around him immediately understood that this was an exchange of interests.

A bitter smile immediately broke out on Old Sun's face. He blamed himself for having such a bad mouth. Why did he tease this guy for no reason?

The only reason you suffer is because of your mouth. "Yes, that's true. But..."

"Well, I really don't have the ability to do this, and I can't manage your steel plant, but this time the machinery factory will manufacture this machine."

Old Xia stopped there, and Old Sun understood it, so he immediately patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry about this. Not to mention the machinery factory, I will buy all the supplies for you too."

"Don't have any evil ideas, I'm going to use all your money, so it's a credit to you."

"Oops, it was a slip of the tongue. I got excited. I got excited."

The two of them went from bickering with each other to being on the verge of a conflict, then became friendly and united, and now they are cursing and joking with laughter, allowing the people in the room to fully experience what "upper-level game" and "love-hate relationship" mean.

"Okay, let's get down to business!"

When Mr. Xia saw that Yang Xiaotao and the other two were still standing aside, he hurriedly asked them to sit down.

"Director Liu, go get some fruit prepared. Oh, and bring the watermelons and grapes."

Old Xia spoke proudly, and Liu Ruichao nodded. Tonight was the happiest time for him in these days.

Turning and leaving the office, Mr. Xia looked at the three people, with more pride than satisfaction in his eyes.

"I don't understand this, can you explain it in more detail?"

Old Xia leaned back in his chair with great interest, while Old Sun beside him complained in his heart.

This guy must want to show off again.

Forget it, just listen to it as a storyteller.

Since Mr. Xia asked, the three of them naturally had to explain it clearly.

He then told it again, this time in greater detail, even describing the scene of several people in the village threshing ground.

Old Xia listened with great interest, especially when he imagined the scene of several people working. He smiled and nodded, saying that it was good that the three of them responded to the call and accepted the re-education of the farmers.

Yang Youning nodded immediately, saying that the teaching was very profound.

Everyone laughed.

By the time the three of them had eaten watermelon and grapes and explained everything, it was almost eleven o'clock.

Both Old Xia and Old Sun had excited looks on their faces; they had already realized the usefulness of this thresher!
Mr. Sun even held Yang Xiaotao's hand and said, "You said you can produce 1.2 tons per hour?"

Yang Xiaotao nodded seriously, "Yes, this data was calculated in the village today. Of course, this requires quick cooperation and proficiency to achieve."

"Can we still harvest rice?"

"Okay, it's all the same stuff."

Elder Xia clapped his hands and said to Elder Sun, "The rice in the south is almost ripe."

Elder Sun stroked his thigh, "Needless to say, this thing must be very useful!"

"Tell me, if other people knew about this, would their eyes turn red?"

"What did you say?"

"I'm sure he'll be jealous!"

"Hahaha…"

The two of them laughed smugly. Elder Sun suddenly looked at Yang Xiaotao and said, "What on earth are you thinking about? You used to do this and that. I heard you were working on an airplane engine a while ago, and now you suddenly come up with a thresher."

"Sometimes it's machinery, and sometimes it's agricultural machinery. The change is too fast."

After saying this, Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning also came forward and said, "It is indeed unexpected. We were also curious when we heard about it. How did they come up with a thresher?"

"And this thresher is surprisingly good. Especially after we tried it today, didn't you see the farmers in the village? They wanted to keep the machine!"

As they were talking, Yang Xiaotao was eating cold grapes on the side, just smiling.

If others praised him, he would be humble, but the people here were all acquaintances, elders, and leaders.

Being modest seems awkward.

Old Xia nodded frequently and looked at Yang Xiaotao with fondness. People like him who can solve problems for the country are the cornerstone of revolutionary construction.

"By the way, since this thresher can thresh wheat and rice, can it also thresh corn?"

"I heard that the Yangcunyi you made is good, and there are a lot of corns grown in the country!"

Old Sun said this curiously, and the others looked at Yang Xiaotao after hearing it.

It would be amazing if you could even beat corn.

The demand for this thresher will definitely increase dramatically.

Several people were looking forward to it, but found that Yang Xiaotao shook his head, "This can't be done!"

"I've thought about this, but this thresher isn't good for corn."

Mr. Sun was a little disappointed after hearing this, "I thought it would work!"

The people around were a little disappointed, but Old Xia heard the hidden meaning. He sat up straight and looked at Yang Xiaotao, "Your model doesn't work? So you mean there is another one?"

After Mr. Xia finished speaking, Mr. Sun immediately widened his eyes.

Think about Yang Xiaotao's past achievements, think about the single-cylinder, double-cylinder, four-cylinder to eight-cylinder diesel engines, it's like laying eggs, one a day, a nest after another.

Now that we have threshers for wheat, will corn threshers be far behind?
This is entirely possible.

Seeing that no one was talking, Yang Xiaotao put down the grape skins in his hand and spoke out his thoughts, "I had some ideas while working in the countryside today. Maybe they will be useful."

"But I can't say I can make it. After all, corn is different from wheat."

Yang Xiaotao didn't say everything, it would be embarrassing if he couldn't do it.

Old Sun wanted to ask more, but Old Xia at the side said, "You can make the decision about corn yourself."

"Let's talk about the thresher in front of us first."

"Old Sun, now is not the time to ask this. Since the Academy of Agricultural Sciences has confirmed it, it must be correct."

Old General Xia focused on the purpose of the three people's visit.

"You're right, now is not the time to talk about this."

"So, let's start with this number?"

After Mr. Sun finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and showed three fingers.

"Thirty thousand, how about that?"

Yang Xiaotao and his companions were shocked. Thirty thousand units was a lot. Even if they had been producing tractors for all these years, the total number would probably be about this.

Of course, those produced elsewhere are not included.

"There is no such thing in China right now. According to Xiao Tao and the others, this thing is very useful."

"So, these thirty thousand are a little too little."

"Then how much do you say?"

"Let's start with 50,000!"

After hearing this number, Yang Xiaotao and the other two became a little restless.

Originally they thought that one thousand units would be enough for their machinery factory, but these two people increased the amount by fifty times.

Does the whole country need so many?
Don’t produce the products and then fail to ship them out, leaving them in the warehouse. That would be a waste of time and effort.

Yang Xiaotao looked at Liu Huaimin, who shook his head, saying he didn't know either.

In the end, it was Liu Ruichao who gave the three of them an affirmative look, and they finally calmed down.
