The ups and downs of life in the Siheyuan

Three months ago, all operations of the former Fifth Machinery Factory were evacuated to Jiuxianqiao.

Immediately to the north of the former Fifth Machinery Factory, there is a substation under construction.

A large amount of construction materials are transported into the substation site every night.

All workers participating in the construction are the engineering team of a certain group army.

Accommodation and food at the substation construction site.

Three months later, the substation was basically completed.

After the substation was completed and operations were just on track, some related households began to come in one after another.

I often don’t see anyone during working hours.

The strange thing is that everyone in the substation is just indifferent and no one has any opinions.

Anyway, the work at the substation is relatively easy. I patrol around from time to time and spend the rest of the time either chatting or knitting while chatting.

Some brave ones would secretly get together to play cards.

It can be seen how loose the substation management is.

If it were not for the security team, the substation would have been stolen countless times.

On October 1962, 10, the original site of the former Fifth Machinery Factory.

There is a big red flower hanging on the sign at the gate, which says "Jiaodaokou Machinery Maintenance Factory".

It was officially opened today, and the only leader present was Director Wang from the street, who seemed deserted.

There was a burst of firecrackers, Li Yuan and Director Wang each held a piece of silk and picked off the big red flowers, and the opening ceremony ended.

Everyone applauded as they walked into the courtyard.

The yard has just been tidied up and looks clean and tidy.

Sister Zheng at the door wiped her tears, smiled and talked to Uncle Song next to her.

Liang Zhixiang and Yan Jiefang gathered together and laughed and chatted.

Li Yuan accompanied Director Wang to the factory director's office on the second floor. As soon as he made tea, Director Wang spoke anxiously.

"You kid, you are 21 years old this year and you still haven't found a wife?"

"Don't worry, we'll find it this year."

"Don't fool me. Go to the street tomorrow and I'll introduce you to a few suitable ones."

"Aunt Wang, the factory is newly established and many things are unclear. You must give me some time."

"A month at most, if not, I will send you one directly."

Li Yuan can't be cured by Director Wang's manipulations, but his wife can do it!

"Okay, I'll listen to you," Li Yuan thought, trying to deal with it first.

"From now on, work hard for me. The organization has given you such a big burden, and you must shoulder it and achieve results.

Even if you graduate from college, there will be a discount, but you must apply what you have learned and make greater contributions than you did at the Fifth Machinery Factory."

"Aunt Wang, why is it discounted? I graduated early with excellent grades in all subjects."

"Don't think I don't understand. Your schooling lasts for 6 years. What can you learn in 2 years?

You are just anxious. It would be better to study for 4 more years, but you must graduate early.

Otherwise, if you are sitting in the laboratories of major research institutes now, you will not be doing your job properly.

I think your college experience was in vain." Director Wang said with an expression of hatred for steel.

"What you taught me is that I will work hard in the future."

"Okay, everything else is not important. Finding a partner is what you must pay attention to."

After teaching Li Yuan a lesson, Director Wang hurriedly left the maintenance shop.

Li Yuan immediately notified the meeting.

"Comrades, today is the opening day of the maintenance shop and the day when everyone officially meets.

Comrade Liang Zhixiang, a former Level 5 fitter of the Fifth Machinery Factory, serves as the workshop director of the First Workshop.

Comrade Xiao Zhiwu is a level 6 fitter supported by superiors and serves as the workshop director of the second workshop.

Comrade Zheng Xia serves as the logistics director.

Comrade Ma Dongyuan serves as security director.

Comrade Xu Xiulan serves as financial director.

Comrade Wang Ni serves as the office director.

We are a small group of people, but an organization that can win battles.

In the future, I hope that everyone will unite sincerely and work hard to contribute to national construction."

The conference room burst into applause.

"Let me introduce myself. I used to be the deputy section chief of the technical section at the Fifth Machinery Factory. I studied at Huaqing University for two years and graduated early.

I won the trust of the organization and appointed me to take charge of the work of Jiaodaokou Machinery Maintenance Factory.

In the future, I will work hard with everyone and hope to make a contribution as soon as possible."

Then there is some self-introduction.

Xiao Zhiwu is actually a level 8 fitter at a certain research institute. He will be responsible for manufacturing precision machinery.

Xu Xiulan and Wang Ni were both assigned by the organization. Like Liang Zhixiang and Zheng Xia, they were superficial projects.

Ma Dongyuan is a member of the Investigation Department and is responsible for the safety of the entire factory with four veterans.

After the factory-wide workers' meeting ended, Li Yuan accompanied Xiao Zhiwu to the second workshop, where there were only two young people.

When he saw the two of them coming in, he immediately stood up and said hello, his movements swift and standard.

"This is a factory, don't be so nervous, just relax," Li Yuan said with a smile.

The two young men smiled and nodded.

The two walked into Director Xiao's office, and Director Xiao pressed a button on a cabinet.

The two filing cabinets against the wall were separated from each other, revealing a staircase going down.

After the two gave way, Li Yuan took the lead and walked down the steps, and the file cabinet behind him slowly closed.

Going down to the bottom, there is a compartment, less than 2 meters deep, but extending about 5 meters to both sides.

On both sides are wardrobes with white coats and hats hanging on them, and dusted cloth shoes underneath.

Put on your white coat, push open the sealed door and go inside.

What you see is a brightly lit hall, and there is a similar double-open sealed door on the opposite side of the hall.

The entire underground hall runs north-south, with one entrance and exit for the maintenance shop and one entrance for the substation.

The entrance and exit of the substation should be larger and equipped with an elevator for entering and exiting materials.

There are 4 laboratories on both sides of the hall, two of which are dust-free laboratories.

There is a cubicle of more than 20 square meters near the north, which is a locker room.

If you want to enter the dust-free laboratory, you need to enter the cubicle and change into special dust-proof clothing.

This is a one-piece dustproof suit designed by Li Yuan based on the style of "Dabai" of later generations.

The fabric chosen was cotton, so I had no choice but to make do.

After putting it on, enter a small sealed room again, press the switch, and there will be a high-power blower and vacuum fan.

Stepping out of the small room is a double-glazed corridor leading to two dust-free laboratories.

Standing in the lobby, you can see everything in the dust-free laboratory.

To maintain fresh air and temperature control in the underground laboratory, heating and air conditioning are installed.

The entire underground laboratory was constructed entirely in accordance with Li Yuan's design drawings.

The higher-ups have also made a lot of determination. Fortunately, except for the air conditioner, everything else is manufactured in-house.

By establishing the entire laboratory, we have also developed a complete set of experience in building dust-free workshops for the country.

These can be said to be blank for the current China.

And the West strictly keeps secrets from China.

The dust-free laboratory is very mysterious.

Compared with later generations, such dust-free laboratories appear crude and inferior.

However, it has been achieved to the extreme.

The two walked into the hall, and there were 12 people waiting for them.

Several of them are old acquaintances: Huang Yan, Gong Liming, Teacher Ai and Teacher Bi.

Several others are students who graduated from Huaqing Semiconductor Department this year.

Among them, 8 people are employed in the substation and 4 people are employed in the maintenance plant.

Of course, these eight people are all idle "idlers" in the substation.

Anyone who can come here has gone through strict political review.

Of course, the key point of security for both factories is to set up workshops with underground exits.
