Scholars in the courtyard

In the afternoon, Yang Xiaotao listed out the follow-up plans in the office. Based on the actual situation, he selected a machine tool and started working.

The last time he went to the No. [-] Branch Factory to look for tungsten alloy, among the several machine tools that Yang Xiaotao dismantled, there was a punch press that was blown up.

Considering the current situation, the production requirements of pressure cookers are the most stringent, so Yang Xiaotao set his sights on punching machines.

It's not that the punch machine can only be used as a pressure cooker, but it is needed now, and other things will be done in the future.

If a punch is added, the efficiency of the pressure cooker will be greatly increased.

Subsequently, Yang Xiaotao began to organize the data.

During the disassembly process, Yang Xiaotao recorded a lot of data about the accessories and gained some understanding of the structure of the punch press.

At the back, among the information reviewed, there are the design principles and general models of the punch press.

So Yang Xiaotao integrated these things and began to design a punch press.

From the initial overall concept drawing, to the step-by-step disassembly of the separate design drawings, and finally the analysis of the mold with reference to the design of the pressure cooker body, everything was planned in my mind.

Finally, I started to write, and soon there were scrapped drawings on the table, and some that I thought were okay were put up.

Lou Xiao'e has been back several times and her mood has improved a lot.

Just like Yang Xiaotao said, it is not a bad thing for his father to go to the countryside to participate in labor. At least he can be integrated into the collective.

Seeing that Yang Xiaotao was designing the drawings again, Lou Xiao'e did not come forward to disturb him. He just filled the empty jar with water, collected some useless waste paper, walked aside and picked up the eraser and started to wipe it. As long as the paper was not broken, it would be fine. Can be used again.

Until mid-afternoon, Yang Youning went to the workshop to inspect the work and came back. He passed by the office door and found Yang Xiaotao tinkering with the drawings in the room. He walked in and looked at it for a while, picked up the drawings and frowned at them, but did not interrupt Yang Xiaotao's train of thought.

When it was almost time to get off work, Yang Xiaotao put the designed drawings aside, stood up and rubbed his back.

"Lao Yang, you've been here for a long time and you haven't said a word."

Yang Xiaotao took a sip from the water glass and asked.

He had long noticed that Yang Youning was coming, but he didn't stop even if the other party didn't speak.

"You also know that I have been here for a long time."

Yang Youning said angrily, raising the drawing in his hand, "If you don't go to the warehouse and take a look, what are you doing here?"

Yang Xiaotao walked aside and sat down, "Chen Bin and the others are watching over at the warehouse. As long as we make it according to the drawings, it won't be a problem."

"Besides, it's almost done. If I go, it will only put pressure on them!"

"As for this."

Yang Xiaotao picked up a stack of drawings and said, "I plan to start manufacturing ordinary machine tools after the machine tools are installed, so that we can build a steel rolling mill."

As Yang Xiaotao expressed his thoughts, Yang Youning's eyes opened wider and wider.

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Yang Youning put down the drawings. After digesting the information, he suddenly realized that with this approach, let alone the superiors' targets, not to mention achieving the previous goals, he could also take advantage of this mission. Gain honor and 'friendship'.

You know, if those factories that are trying to complete their tasks know that their steel rolling mills can produce machine tools, haha, it all depends on the faces of their steel rolling mills.

After thinking for a while, Yang Youning then stared at Yang Xiaotao, "I understand now that I shouldn't have given your kid any nursing leave. Isn't it already done by the factory?"

"From now on, if you have anything to do, please take the initiative and be proactive. Don't wait until you feel embarrassed."

He stood up and walked out, "By the way, this machine tool and some punch presses should be built as soon as possible, just for test runs."

patter
The office door is closed and the person has left.

Lou Xiao'e lowered her head and smiled, and Yang Xiaotao asked in astonishment, "Am I not proactive enough? Am I not proactive enough?"

Then he stood up and pointed at the drawn drawings and said seriously.

"I'm very proactive."

Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes and didn't answer. She just said it was time to get off work, picked up her bag and left.

Yang Xiaotao was even more confused now.

However, I still put the drawings away and put them in my backpack, planning to take a look at them when I get home at night.

The system's message prompt did not come, which means that there are errors in the drawing design. It cannot even pass the test and needs to be corrected.

After packing up, Yang Xiaotao left the office and then came to the warehouse.

At this moment, the people in the warehouse are still busy and have no intention of getting off work.

Especially in the middle position, a group of people were watching nervously. At the end, Liu Daming was wearing a hat, and his dry fingers were carefully operating on the bench.

Yang Xiaotao stepped forward, glanced at the bench, and then walked to Chang Mingjie.

"We've made it to the gearbox, and it looks like it's almost over."

"Team leader, this is the last part. Apart from the previous core components, this is the most difficult one."

Chang Mingjie looked at the drawings of the gear box. Each gear design was clearly marked, and the drawing of the gears made him ashamed.

"Are the other parts as required?"

"Yes, this time we have stricter requirements and strictly control the data measurement."

"As it is now, it can be officially assembled tomorrow."

"Yes, it needs to be tested after assembly. I hope everything goes well."

Chang Mingjie is not happy about assembling the machine tool. If there are problems now, he can solve them as soon as possible. If problems are discovered half way through the assembly, it will be a big deal.

Yang Xiaotao didn't say much, he just walked up and watched Liu Daming work.

When people around him saw that it was Yang Xiaotao, they all moved out of the way.

There are a total of 24 gears and eight sets of bearings in the gear box of the machine tool.

Because it must have enough rigidity to withstand force and moment, and also prevent deformation to ensure transmission quality, all high-quality steel is selected.

So the knives used this time are all tungsten alloy blades made last time.

Through the cooperation of gears and bearings, the force is transmitted to the main shaft, and then different main shaft speeds are achieved through changes in different gears.

This design allows the spindle speed to be controlled. This machine tool has four gears, including three forward gears, one, two, and three, with the speed gradually getting higher, and there is also a reverse gear.

The advantage of this is that you can choose different gears when processing different materials.The high speed is suitable for rapid processing of simple objects and soft materials. As long as the operator is skilled, the finished product can be quickly produced.

The low speed gear is suitable for processing harder materials, which can prevent the turning tool from breaking and can also correct the parts.

Yang Xiaotao watched for a while and then came to the side, where another group of people gathered together.

babble
As the sound rang out, electric sparks flashed. People around them distanced themselves and squinted their eyes, fearing that they would be hit by the electric sparks.

"This idiot's skills are getting better and better."

"Look, the welding feels smooth, like silk."

"We checked with a flaw detector and they all passed the test."

Chen Bin moved closer and sighed.

Yang Xiaotao looked at it. The person welding in front of him was Shi Gan, Shi Hanzi, who had complained about the bad welding rod last time.

"If I participate in the promotion this year, I think this guy will be the youngest grade eight or eight welder."

Chen Bin was about to lament that he was the youngest eighth-level worker, but suddenly he remembered that the person in front of him was the youngest eighth-level worker, and he quickly changed his mind.

Yang Xiaotao nodded aside. He didn't know much about welding work, but to be recognized by a group of old men, it was obvious that this guy was very capable.

"This talent needs to be brought in."

Yang Xiaotao winked at Chen Bin and made a hugging gesture, "We can't expect others to get close to us, right? We have to take the initiative to chat and get closer to each other."

"You see, Director Chen is doing a good job at this. You should learn from him when you have nothing to do."

Chen Bin looked embarrassed. He was a technical person, not a human person.

Besides, Deputy Factory Director Chen’s skills can only be learned by anyone!
As the two said this, the bearings had been welded, Shi Qian got up from the ground, and Yang Xiaotao picked up the water jar from the shelf and stepped forward.

"Leader."

"Drink some water and take a rest! The work cannot be done in a day, so you must take a rest."

"Hey~"

Shi Qian took the jar and finished the drink. Yang Xiaotao looked at the parts and nodded from time to time.

"Yes, you are pretty good at this, but don't be proud."

"You also know the situation facing the steel rolling mill. There are more difficult tasks waiting for you next, so you can't take it lightly."

Shi Qian quickly put the jar aside and shouted with a serious look, "Team leader, don't worry, no matter how difficult the job is, you will not be proud. Still, still, you must do a good job."

"Okay, this sounds encouraging. If you follow me from now on, you will inevitably encounter difficult jobs. Then it will depend on your ability."

"Hey, good!"

Shi Qian agreed in one breath and rubbed his hands together, very happy.

Yang Xiaotao hummed, then winked at Chen Bin, and then prepared to go home.

Chen Bin watched as Yang Xiaotao lured people into the team with just a few words. He squeaked and squeaked, and finally he choked out, "You are much better at this than Director Chen."

……

After coming out of the warehouse, Yang Xiaotao rode his bike home. He originally wanted to go back fishing early, but he had to postpone it this time.

Besides, there is no fish, but pig's trotters.

When I walked to the corner, there were two more pig hooves on the bicycle.

As soon as I returned to the courtyard, I heard a cry from the front yard.

Yang Xiaotao stopped, and Yan Fugui approached and said speechlessly, "You are committing evil!"

"What's the matter?"

"Alas. Isn't it that Li Erga was chosen to work in the countryside? But today it was said that there was a hole in the roof. He went up to mend it. Who would have thought that he would accidentally break his leg when he came down."

After hearing this, Yang Xiaotao immediately figured out the key. He must be using this to avoid going to the countryside.

While he was talking, a woman wearing a blue and white shirt ran out with her head down and wiping her eyes.

After seeing Yang Xiaotao and Yan Fugui, they slumped even more shamelessly and passed by quickly.

"Hey, I don't know how the street office will handle it, but don't let this matter damage the honor of the compound!"

Yan Fugui sighed with emotion, not knowing whether he really cared about the honor of the compound or because of his uncle's reward.

"It's a pity that such a good woman like Xiaolan will end up following such a bastard."

"Ugh"

After that, he walked home.

Yang Xiaotao shook his head helplessly as he listened to the men's roars and the children's cries in the room.

This may be because poor people must be hateful!
The path you choose is your own. How you go and whether you want to go are all your own business. Others can't help you.

Back home, Ran's mother and Ran Qiuye were talking about things in the front yard. Today, while chatting in the yard, the Wang Dashan family and the Liu family's daughter-in-law came to see each other.
Explain clearly what happened.

After hearing this, the two of them looked down upon such an irresponsible man and sympathized with the women and children at home.

Especially Ran Qiuye, with the three children around her, judging others by herself and comparing her feelings to those of others, her mother's heart was a little overflowing.

After Yang Xiaotao listened for a while, he went to prepare dinner, add some vegetables, pickled pig's trotters and stewed pig's trotters in soup.

Who wants to have a large family?
During dinner, the noise in the courtyard became much quieter. Everyone was busy filling their bellies, so they had time to speak.

In the Jia family, Mrs. Jia Zhang's nose twitched and she looked outside, with longing on her face, which then turned into deep reluctance.

The smell of meat coming from the Yang family is immediately recognizable as boiled pig's trotters.

Back then, when she gave birth to Dongxu, Lao Jia bought it and it tasted delicious.

Just thinking about the current situation, the anguish in my heart suppressed the greed in my stomach.
