Scholars in the courtyard

Chapter 477 Accept the mission
The leader at the side looked at Yang Xiaotao and took the opportunity to interject.

"Since the steam engine has such a high horsepower, it shouldn't be a problem if it is installed on a tractor."

Yang Xiaotao didn't realize anything yet, but Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin had already clenched their fists.

It was Mr. Yang on the side who watched the leaders keep talking about things, and he, who was well-informed, understood that it was a cliché, a cliché for Yang Xiaotao.

It's just that this matter itself is not harmful to Yang Xiaotao, and he is not going to reveal it.

Gao Yufeng and Li Zhixing also understood the meaning of the words, they all stared at Yang Xiaotao with wide eyes to see what he had to say.

"tractor?"

Yang Xiaotao just thought about it for a moment. The walking tractors of later generations seem to have a smaller engine than this steam engine. Of course, all of them used single-cylinder diesel engines at that time, but their horsepower was only about ten, and some even had less than ten horsepower. to ten.

Although the maximum horsepower of this steam engine has reached [-], it does not mean that it can work at [-] horsepower all the time. According to Yang Xiaotao's calculations, half of the power is the most suitable for obtaining continuous and stable power.

In other words, the most suitable power is fifteen to twenty horsepower.

However, [-] horsepower is placed on the tractor, because of its large size, the weight is heavy, heat loss must be removed, and there is also the problem of conversion rate. After calculation, the real output is only [-] horsepower.

Of course, as a small walking tractor for home use, seven or eight horsepower is enough, and a tractor with twelve horsepower is already a medium or large tractor, which has already left the category of walking.

Thinking of this, Yang Xiaotao said confidently, "Leader, this is completely fine."

"According to my calculations, with this steam engine as the power and the corresponding equipment,"

With just one sentence, Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning looked at each other, both showing surprise expressions.

From their point of view, since Yang Xiaotao was sure he could succeed, he would definitely succeed.

Why?
Just because he is the youngest nine-level engineer in the rolling mill, just because he built the steam engine and repaired the rolling mill
This ability is already an authority in the rolling mill. If he said yes, then he would do it.

"Comrade Yang Xiaotao."

Mr. Xia interrupted Yang Xiaotao's explanation with a solemn expression on his face.

Yang Xiaotao looked over, and the people around him also pricked up their ears to listen.

"Comrade Yang Xiaotao, I have a task for you."

"Chief, please give me instructions."

In just a second, Yang Xiaotao came to his senses and stood up quickly.

People around also stood up.

Xia Lao stood up with a serious face.

"This task is not only for you, but also for the rolling mill. It is a task that must be completed."

Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin walked up to Yang Xiaotao.

Behind them, Gao Yufeng and Li Zhixing looked envious. They knew that the rolling mill was going to have a big project this time.

"In view of the current situation, all parts of the country need to expand and concentrate planting, so the demand for machinery is increasing."

"The task I entrusted to you is to use the steam engine in front of you to design and manufacture a tractor."

"This is a difficult but very honorable task, will you accept it?"

All eyes were on Yang Xiaotao.

Although he had prepared for a long time and thought about the use of this steam engine, he had never thought about taking over the task from this boss.

He couldn't help thinking about it now.

Why wait for the storm to pass when you have to do it sooner or later?

For more than ten years, let it go to waste?
Thinking of this, Yang Xiaotao straightened his spine, looked at Mr. Xia and nodded seriously, "Report to the chief, Yang Xiaotao accepts the task."

"Guaranteed to complete the mission."

Yang Youning shouted the same loudly as Xu Yuanshan.

"Okay. I'll wait for your good news."

While the few people were talking, the well drilling machine had stopped working, and Zhou Kui and Yang Shitou were calling for people to lower the cement pipes.

With enough cement pipes, the efficiency of drilling wells is also speeding up.

Xia Lao lost one thing on his mind, so he was naturally much more relaxed.

Tao Lao also knew that if this tractor came out, it would definitely play a huge role in agricultural production.

Of course, this kind of well drilling machine should be produced more, and water can be pumped out in one day, which is of great use in the north.

A few people gathered in front of the well, and a pressurized well was being quickly assembled on the raised cement pipe.

Elder Tao and the others watched carefully, and after waiting for about ten minutes, the pressurized well was lifted up to the mouth of the well.

Yang Dazhuang found a wooden barrel, sent water into the shaft, and then quickly pressed the wooden handle under the attention of everyone. After a while, a water column flowed out, and then it became bigger and clearer.

Yang Xiaotao stood aside with his camera in hand. Mr. Tao stepped forward and pressed the water hard by himself. White water flowed out from the well, flowed on the ground, and soon flowed down along the terrain.

"With this thing, even a child can draw water."

"The farmland under the hillside is irrigated with water, so this year will be a bumper harvest."

"Have fun, have fun."

Tao Lao was in high spirits, and Xia Lao was also infected, so he personally came over to suppress it twice.

"This thing is convenient, and I will get one for the family compound when I go back."

On the side, Yang Youning kept it in mind, and he will do it when he goes back.

Yang Xiaotao put down the camera, walked up to Mr. Yang, and said something about eating.

Mrs. Yang nodded, then walked forward and called everyone back to the village for dinner.

After another busy work, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon when we returned to the village.

In the brigade, Ran Qiuye and the others had already eaten the noodles, and now they are waiting for the noodles to be put into the pot.

When Mr. Yang and the others returned to the brigade headquarters, the noodles in the pot had already been cooked.

Yang Xiaotao led a group of leaders back home, and the rest of the drivers' secretaries were in the brigade.

Everyone ate the same food, a plate of salted duck eggs cut into one-sixth, two plates of pickled radish, spicy cabbage, and a dish of fried pork skin.

Although they were all ordinary meals and there were no big fish or meat, everyone could tell that the two of them were very satisfied with the food.

Especially after eating a big bowl of noodles, I even drank the soup.

In the eyes of the guards, that was rare.

After finishing the meal, Mr. Xia and Mr. Tao didn't stay any longer, but just encouraged everyone to continue to work hard, and then got into the car and left.

Before leaving, he asked the secretary to put down a stack of food stamps and industrial coupons.

Paying for meals is the same no matter who you are.

Mr. Yang and the others were not hypocritical, and happily accepted it.

Then Li Zhixing, Liu Huaimin and others left one after another, leaving Gao Yufeng in the village.

Zhou Kui and Wang Jun will live for a while, and they plan to drill wells in several surrounding villages.

Of course, there is a subsidy for drilling wells, and the specific amount is not mentioned, but if you come from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, it should not be too little.

Yang Xiaotao accepted the task, so he had to worry about the tractor.

But considering that the next spring plowing is just as important, there is no room for error.

After Yang Youning discussed with Liu Huaimin, Yang Xiaotao could stay in Yangjiazhuang to work.

Anyway, now that tractors can be designed, there is no one else in the rolling mill except Yang Xiaotao.

It doesn't matter where he does it.

But every week, I have to go back to the rolling mill to report the progress.

Yang Xiaotao readily agreed that he could study hard in this village.

Moreover, when it comes to tractors, what Yang Xiaotao wants to design is the one from the later 90s.

Thanks to the old father in the previous life, he followed behind to play with tractors, and he was able to start repairing even minor ailments. Now that the steam engine has been produced, I don’t believe that tractors can’t be fixed.

The tractor in my memory has a 180 engine, which is about eight horsepower according to calculations.

Two handrail handlebars, with a counterweight iron in the middle, are used to balance the front of the car.

On the left side of the handlebar is the clutch, on the right hand side is the gas pedal, and on the bottom of the two handlebars are used to control left and right turns.

easy and convenient.

In the middle is the gear, the front is the nose, and the bottom is two wheels, supporting the shelf.

It can be attached to the bucket of the cart, and it can be hung with plows, rakes and other agricultural tools. It is very useful.

It's not too much to say "Iron Bull".

Such a tractor with a pocket on the back was a great thing when he was a child.

When going to the market, any tractor will be full of people.

Yang Xiaotao understands that now he can't do as many functions as later generations, but it is enough to learn a lot.

What's more, in the past few days, Liu Huaimin and the others will collect the current situation of domestic tractors, from data, structural diagrams, to actual operation conditions, and existing problems. Yang Xiaotao will learn from them and learn from them, which will also help him.

With a goal, there is a direction.

The next step is to walk all the way.

Courtyard house

Jia Dongxu's funeral was over, and the Jia family finally got rid of their encumbrances. After a day of ventilation, the house finally let out the foul smell.

Qin Huairu washed and scrubbed in the yard. She was busy for a long time, and it was not until evening that she came home to cook a pot of porridge.

Jia Zhang sat together with sticks, and Xiao Dang was holding a bowl. After Qin Huairu divided the porridge, they picked it up to eat.

After what happened in the morning, Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu didn't speak.

The two bowed their heads to eat, and the stick was quickly finished, but they were still very hungry.

Half and half children eat poor old people, just when they can eat, there will be more food without oil and water.

Looking at Qin Huairu eagerly, "Mom, I'm not full!"

Qin Huairu didn't care about him, there wasn't much in total, and the four of them would be gone after they were divided.

Seeing that Qin Huairu didn't speak, Stickong looked at Jia Zhangshi.

"Grandma, share with me!"

Jia Zhang looked up, looked at Qin Huairu, looked at the stick, looked down at the porridge in the bowl, turned to Xiaodang and said, "You lose money, why drink so much?"

"Didn't you see that your brother is not full? Just drink half of it."

Xiao Dang was full of grievances, she was also hungry!
After hearing what grandma said, Sticky looked at Xiao Dang and shook his head suddenly, "I don't want my sister!"

"Dad said, the elder brother must protect the younger sister!"

"Grandma, you are not allowed to talk about Xiaodang losing money!"

Jia Zhang was cold, "Little bastard, you dare to teach me a lesson, it's useless to hurt you!"

Then he looked at Qin Huairu, "The child can eat, so can't you make more?"

"Do more? Can you see how much is left in the tank?"

Jia Zhang was choked, and continued to drink porridge with her head down.

Qin Huairu was angry, all the gift money for the funeral this time was in the hands of Jia Zhang, no matter what, there were still about ten yuan, if it was given to her, the family's living standard would immediately improve.

Of course, Qin Huairu also has money.

It's just that she doesn't want to show it.

Bang Geng looked at Jia Zhangshi eagerly, then at Qin Huairu, and finally picked up the bowl and refilled it again.

In the yard, a scent came, and Sticky looked out the window.

"Mom, Shazhu is cooking delicious food again."

Without looking back, he spoke loudly.

The meaning is obvious, silly Zhu has done it, so hurry up and ask for it.

Jia Zhang snorted coldly and didn't speak.

In the bottom of my heart, I still want Qin Huairu to go.

But Qin Huairu is not a fool, she is thankless, she just wants to make Jia Zhang suffer.

Let BangGong understand that she is in charge of this family, so don't ask Jia Zhang about everything.

Qin Huairu didn't move, and Jia Zhang couldn't do anything about it.

Silly Zhu tapped on the edge of the pot with a spoon in his hand, looking outside from time to time.

After a while, I didn't see Qin Huairu, feeling lost.

"It seems that it won't come."

"Hmph, I don't care about it."

Then he lifted the lid of the pot, put the braised pork on a plate, and walked to the backyard with it.

Yi Zhonghai was sitting at home, Jia Zhang's cold eyes made him understand that there was an old godly woman involved in the matter between him and Qin Huairu.

If the plan is to go well, the old godmother has to settle down.

"In the future, Jia's family will live behind closed doors. Let's live our own lives first."

The aunt was dazed when she heard this, she didn't say that a few days ago.

It's just that Yi Zhonghai is in charge of this family, and she listens to it.
