Scholars in the courtyard

A branch factory.

Yi Zhonghai and Shazhu were in a daze in the room after eating.

Now, let alone going out, the two of them can only stay in the house at night except for going to the bathroom.

The entire factory is tightly guarded by the security department and the factory protection team organized by the organization. Not to mention preventing damage from any enemy agents, not even a rabbit can escape.

The two of them have to come back when the time comes. It's like going to jail, and it will be uncomfortable for a long time.

"Master, did you hear where our arrangement went?"

Silly Zhu rubbed the ashes on his neck with a ball in his hand.

If you don't take a shower for a long time, your body will not only smell bad but also be sticky. But if you stay here for a long time, you won't be able to smell anything else.

"I don't know."

Yi Zhonghai replied listlessly, feeling even more unsure.

I think that for so many years, Yi Zhonghai has always had smooth sailing, and his life has been nourished along the way.

But I didn't want to end up in this situation when I was about to enter the soil.

Nothing works!
"Master, I think it would be good to support us here."

Silly Zhu's eyes moved quickly, he came close to Yi Zhonghai and whispered, "Look, it's like being in jail here, but in the countryside, hehe."

"Don't think that the countryside is just about eating dirt. I thought so too at first, but when I went out to make mats for the village in those days, I discovered that life in the countryside is not what we thought."

Silly Zhu said with certainty, and Yi Zhonghai stared, "Zhu Zhu, do you have a way?"

"Hey, cook who will never starve to death in a famine year, just take a look at him when he comes to the village."

Silly Zhu said with great certainty, which comforted Yi Zhonghai a little.

Just seeing Silly Zhu taking care of him like this, not like a son but treating him better than a son.

Suddenly, I felt guilty for plotting against Silly Zhu.

Coupled with the fact that Silly Zhu's company satisfied the "family affection" that he was missing, sadness and joy came together in his heart, and tears could not help but hang on his face.

"Zhuzi, I didn't expect you to be so kind to me, an old man like me."

Yi Zhonghai reached out and held Shazhu's hand, showing his true feelings.

I thought to myself that I must treat this silly Zhuzi well in the future.

Silly Zhu was stunned by Yi Zhonghai's sudden move, but he quickly came to his senses, "Master, why are you talking about this? In my heart, you are the elder."

"Zhuzi, you are so kind-hearted. They say a good person is hard to find. That's because they haven't met you."

"Hehe~"

Silly Zhu giggled, still thinking about what Yi Zhonghai said back then, that the house was going to be given to him.

The next day, in the courtyard.

I came back late last night. I spent a hard night in the study, but it was rare to get a good sleep.

There is no hassle during the Dragon Boat Festival, no crying from my daughter, no need to get up early to go to the factory, and no need to prepare breakfast.
After putting everything down, Yang Xiaotao didn't get up from the bed until the sun hit the room.

After stretching and going out, he saw Ran Qiuye moving around in the room.

On the bed, Duanwu was watching over his two younger sisters, and Ran's mother was watching from behind.

Not far away, Ran Xinrui was reading a book, while Ran Hongbing was still playing in the yard.

The three little guys looked at each other for a while and cried twice. It was very lively.

"Let's have breakfast. What time did you get back last night?"

Ran Qiuye laid out the breakfast, and Yang Xiaotao sat down, picked up an egg, and took a sip of porridge.

"It's almost two o'clock."

"The machine tool was set up yesterday and the test run went fine. I just celebrated with my comrades and had something to eat in the canteen."

As Yang Xiaotao said, Ran Qiuye sat aside and didn't care about the steel rolling mill, as long as Yang Xiaotao felt it went well.

"Master, come up today. After you finish eating, go buy something to eat."

"Okay, I'll go in a minute and catch two fish on the way."

After eating, Yang Xiaotao went out on his bicycle and went to the supply and marketing cooperative. When he came back, there was a bunch of things hung on the car, and a bag of rice was carried on the beam.

Put down the food, then pick up the fishing rod and go fishing.

When I came back, I heard a donkey cart at the door and quickly entered the house.

In the yard, Mr. Yang was holding the Dragon Boat Festival and basking in the sun. Yang Dazhuang and Yang Shitou were eating cucumbers and tomatoes. The three of them looked at their two daughters and were happy for Yang Xiaotao.

Yang Xiaotao's lineage depends on him to flourish.

Having more children means you will be blessed. There is no such thing as a child these days.

Coupled with Yang Xiaotao's ability, Ran Qiuye's figure seems to be capable of giving birth and raising children, and the prosperity of the Yang family is just around the corner.

Yang Xiaotao came up to meet him and then started preparing lunch.

At noon, Yang Xiaotao made two tables. Not only Mr. Yang and the others, but also Zhou's mother was called. Zhou Peng led his wife and Zhou Kui's family. There were also people in the yard. Everyone watched the children and talked, which was very lively.

While the Yang family was busy, a group of people sat in two rows in the conference room of the First Machinery Department, quietly listening to Liu Huaimin's report.

"Comrades, chiefs and comrades, these are the results delivered by the Red Star Rolling Mill."

"After nearly two months of hard work, comrades have united as one, and mission code-named 666 has reached its final stage."

After Liu Huaimin finished speaking, he walked to the back seat and sat down. In front of him was Mr. Xia.

At this moment, there were only a few big guys on the table in the front row, but they were all looking at Mr. Xia.

Mr. Huang, who was at the top, looked over. Unexpectedly, Mr. Xia quietly gave them a big firecracker.

The Fourth Factory had just been taken down two days ago, and I was thinking of finding a model to put up, one positive and one negative, so that everyone could focus on revolutionary work.

But unexpectedly, everyone was still looking, and Lao Xia fired the first shot.

Seeing several old brothers looking at him, Mr. Xia touched the teapot proudly, and then said matter-of-factly, "According to the assessment of comrades, this machine tool will be an advanced machine tool with high precision. It is also rare in China.”

"The fact that Red Star Steel Rolling Mill can complete the task shows that they have this ability and the ability to make another one."

"This is the first time in China that high-precision machine tool production has been completed. This is also a new chapter in our machinery manufacturing." "This is the unity of the comrades workers of the Red Star Rolling Mill following the road of revolution."

Mr. Xia recognized the tasks completed by the steel rolling mill and kept saying good things.

Several old people sitting here looked at him with their eyes, meaning that just a few words would be enough. Everyone knows that your subordinates are doing a good job, but there is no need to say that.

However, Mr. Xia had no intention of stopping. It was not easy for his subordinates to fight for his reputation, but that was not enough for him.

Cough
Finally, Mr. Huang, who was sitting at the top, couldn't listen anymore. Even though this meeting was to discuss the mission No. 666, he was also happy in his heart. Just after the target was raised, someone sent pillows. It was a good start and he had an explanation to his superiors.

Their First Machinery Department is the big brother, but now the mushroom eggs of the Second Machinery Department have come out, and the Eighth Machinery Department's second kicker is also fast. Even the Third Machinery Department is recruiting troops to start a big fight. Their First Machinery Department is the big brother. It would be unjustifiable if we don’t show some results.

Therefore, after hearing Lao Xia's report on the machine tool tasks in the steel rolling mill, these old guys ignored the weekend rest and rushed over with their men for a meeting.

"Lao Xia, we all approved this mission together at the beginning. I decided on the code name of 666."

Before Mr. Huang could speak, the old man with age spots on his face spoke.

"Yes, this credit belongs to everyone. Lao Xia, you can't be alone."

The people next to him also spoke.

"Hey, you can't eat it alone, but don't think about the meat. That's a steel rolling mill."

Mr. Xia was not afraid at all and raised his head directly without giving a few people a chance.

cough cough cough

Mr. Huang could only cough again, his throat was filled with smoke, before he attracted everyone's attention.

"Lao Xia, the rolling mill can complete the task. The efforts of the comrades deserve recognition, but the most important thing now is to determine the capability of this machine tool."

"Is it really what the report says? It's a high-precision machine tool."

"The difference between this high-precision and ordinary machine tools is not 01:30. We must be cautious and rigorous in dealing with this issue, and there cannot be any mistakes."

When Mr. Xia heard this, he nodded solemnly.

"I know."

"If it is, it is, if it is not, it is not. I will not do anything to make someone look fat."

"I have asked the relevant departments to prepare and go to the rolling mill tomorrow for test runs."

"In addition, the steel rolling mill also submitted a filing."

Mr. Xia thought of something and nodded to Liu Huaimin behind him.

So Liu Huaimin got up again and picked up a document.

Yang Youning mentioned this on the phone, and he sorted it out overnight.

"Comrades, chiefs and comrades."

"The comrades at the steel rolling mill believe that the best way to test is to make a machine tool, so they plan to build a punch press to test the machine tool's capabilities."

"They made this decision also to solve the production problem of pressure cookers, according to the comrades' ideas."

After Liu Huaimin sat down, he felt that the venue was a little quiet.

Mr. Xia looked around, and the corners of his mouth turned up.

He just likes to see these old guys look like they have never seen the world.

Let them play chess and play ruthlessly without giving any face.

Huang Lao looked at the document and felt that he was too conservative.

We need to carefully confirm and verify it here, because they have already started preparing to build machine tools.

This, this is putting the issue before them.

This overall view, this foresight, and this vision are far-sighteder than what he can see.

Mr. Huang looked at the names that appeared in the document, and an idea suddenly came to his mind!
However, considering the age of the other party, he quickly suppressed this somewhat ridiculous idea.

But some things, once they happen, can only be suppressed but cannot be erased.

Huang Lao came to his senses and moved away from the document, "Look, the comrades from the steel rolling mill have already considered the matter ahead of us."

"What you do in this work is to work hard and devote yourself to the revolution."

Mr. Huang smiled and handed the document to the old man beside him.

"Since they have this idea, let them act accordingly and do it with confidence and boldness."

"Two-pronged approach, all-round guarantee!"

Mr. Xia nodded with a smile.

"It can't be Comrade Yang Xiaotao who proposed this plan."

At this time, the freckled old man opposite Mr. Xia suddenly spoke after reading the report. When Mr. Xia heard the name Yang Xiaotao, he immediately became wary, "What's wrong, Old Sun."

"It's okay. I remember that when the 666 plan was proposed to us, it was this young comrade who proposed it. He is really young and promising."

The old man said pointedly, not forgetting to wink at Mr. Huang above him, "Old Huang, Comrade Yang Xiaotao is very talented in machine tool design, I see."

Before Mr. Sun could finish speaking, Mr. Xia didn't know what he meant, so he immediately said, "Stop, stop, our meeting today is about machine tools, not human relations."

"Old Huang, I will go to the steel rolling mill tomorrow to take a look. You can take care of the ministry's affairs first."

Mr. Xia made a joke that made Mr. Sun unable to continue. Although Mr. Sun knew what Mr. Sun was saying, Mr. Huang couldn't accept it.

Everyone knew what Lao Xia meant. When the Academy of Agricultural Sciences came to ask for someone, he had the firmest opinion.

I will not let go even if I die.

There is no other way. The First Machinery Department can only unite and communicate with the outside world.

And now it is proved that Lao Xia's persistence is correct.

If Yang Xiaotao is let go, farmers may be able to grow more food, but without industrial development, the country will not be able to grow in size.

"Okay, go to the steel rolling mill and take a good look. If you need anything, call us."

"it is good."

After saying that, Mr. Xia stood up and left. He also winked at Mr. Sun and asked the accompanying people to quickly lower their heads. They did not dare to get involved in the interaction between the big guys.
