Siheyuan Diaosi Attack

After hearing what he said, Zhou Yaping smiled and said softly, "Oh! You have already planned it out, so I feel relieved."

Zou Liangbin nodded in agreement, fiddling with the chopsticks in his hand and saying, "Yeah! I understand, Li Yue, when you're done, go back and rest early."

After listening to their words, Li Yue nodded slightly, then lowered his head to continue eating. The two of them watched him eat, and then they didn't say anything else and continued eating in silence.

Not long after, the group hurriedly finished their meal. They walked out of the cafeteria, along the western path for a while, and then went their separate ways.

Zou Liangbin and Zhou Yaping walked side by side towards the office building, while Li Yue walked alone towards the maintenance warehouse.

He pushed open the door of the warehouse, glanced at the motor that Li Yue was disassembling, and asked softly, "Comrade, were you sent by Engineer Dong?"

After hearing what Li Yue said, the man turned around, nodded, and answered in a slightly curious tone: "Are you Li Yue?

Mr. Dong did ask me to come over to help.

He said if you need anything, I will prepare it.”

Li Yue approached him, looked at the other's face, and found it was a stranger, so he stretched out his hand and said in a friendly manner: "Hello, I'm Li Yue, nice to meet you." The other party also stretched out his hand, and the two shook hands.

Li Yue continued: "Thank you for coming to help.

I now need some materials, including motor copper wire, insulating paint, binding tape, and a 200° light bulb. ”

There was a hint of urgency in his voice, but he remained polite at the same time.

Su Chen listened carefully, then nodded, with a hint of ease and friendliness in his tone: "Okay, I understand.

My name is Su Chen, you can call me Assistant Su, everyone calls me that."

After hearing this, Li Yue smiled slightly, with a hint of surprise in his tone: "Oh! Then I will call you Assistant Su.

Assistant Su, thank you for your help.

I was planning to clean the motor and then go to the technical department, but I didn't expect Engineer Dong to send you here so soon."

After hearing this, Su Chen showed a hint of pride on his face: “Engineer Dong told me about your situation, so I came here.

He said you might not be able to dismantle the motor so quickly, and asked me to come back after my afternoon break.

But I wanted to come and take a look, and I didn't expect you had already disassembled the motor."

Then he continued, "Okay, I'll go prepare the necessary materials now."

Li Yue smiled, a glimmer of gratitude flashed in his eyes, and he said softly: "Then, thank you, Assistant Su."

Su Chen heard what he said, but waved his hand with a relaxed smile: "It's all work, why are you thanking me?

Okay, I'll get it for you right away!"

Su Chen turned around and was about to get the copper wire, then turned back and asked, "By the way, what kind of copper wire do you use?" Li Yue did not hesitate and replied with a smile, "I can use mm62, just take this."

His tone revealed his familiarity and confidence in the work.

Su Chen nodded to show his understanding: "Okay, I'll get ready now."

Li Yue watched Su Chen's figure disappear into the depths of the warehouse. He took a deep breath, then skillfully took off his military bag and gently placed it on the workbench next to him.

Then he walked over to the case and began to clean the inside of the motor with great concentration.

He had a skillful technique and in a short while the motor was cleaned thoroughly.

At this time, Su Chen hurried back with a roll of copper wire. He put the copper wire on the table and said anxiously, "Li Yue, I got the copper wire.

I haven't got the insulating paint, the bandages and the light bulb yet, I'll get them now."

Li Yue listened and nodded, his tone calm and firm: "Well, sure, thank you for your help."

Su Chen didn't say much, turned around and left quickly.

Li Yue's eyes fell on the copper wire that Su Chen placed on the table. He carefully opened the outer packaging, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.

He commented to himself, “Well, the quality of this thread is really good.

Unlike modern copper-coated aluminum wires, this type of pure copper wire is rarely used today.”

He seemed content with this traditional material.

Afterwards, Li Yue walked to the workbench with the copper wire roll, put it down, and picked up the manual pointer winding machine placed against the wall inside the workbench.

He sighed and whispered: "This is really an antique, who still uses this in modern times?

It’s all electronic now. You just need to input the numbers, set it up, and press a button to wind the wire automatically.”

While adjusting the size of the winding machine, he placed the copper wire spool onto the vertical spool. Then he sat down on a stool and began to wind the wire skillfully.

Soon, Su Chen came back with insulating paint, bandages and light bulbs.

He walked over to Li Yue and said with a hint of doubt: "Comrade Li Yue, the insulating paint and the bandages are placed on the workbench. I know what they are used for, but what is this light bulb for?"

Li Yue stopped what he was doing, looked up and gave Su Chen a sly smile: "Well, you'll know when you see it later."

He already had a plan in mind that required some specific materials.

He turned his gaze to Su Chen with a relaxed smile: "Assistant Su, do you know where to find Line 8?"

Su Chen seemed a little confused, not understanding Li Yue's intention: "I know, but what do you want Line 8 for?"

Li Yue listened, and a hint of pride flashed in his eyes: "I plan to make a light stand, and it will be perfect with No. 8 wire."

Su Chen understood his plan and did not ask any more questions, but simply responded: "Uh, that's it!

I'll find it for you right away. How long do you need it?"

Li Yue listened, pondered for a moment, and then replied: "Well, a 2-meter-long one is enough, and you don't need that much."

Su Chen nodded to show his understanding: "Okay, I'll find it for you right away."

As he spoke, he walked to the tool rack beside the case, picked up a pair of pliers, and turned away.

Li Yue watched Su Chen's figure hurriedly leave, then he buried his head and concentrated on the work in his hands, continuing to wind the copper wire.

Time passed quietly as he was concentrating, and soon, Su Chen's figure appeared beside him again.

He held a 2-meter-long No. 8 wire in his hand, and said with a hint of uncertainty: "Comrade Li Yue, do you think this length is okay?"

Li Yue stopped what he was doing, turned his head and looked at Line 8 in Su Chen's hand, a glimmer of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, and he said softly: "Well, it's OK."

He stood up from the stool, took the thread from Su Chen, and said with a smile: "Assistant Su, give me the pliers in your hand, I will show you how to do it."

After hearing this, Su Chen handed over the pliers without hesitation, his eyes full of curiosity: "Okay, I want to see how you use this No. 8 wire."

Su Chen obeyed Li Yue's request and handed the pliers to him. Li Yue took it steadily and immediately started making it.

Su Chen stood aside, watching Li Yue's every move intently.

Li Yue was skilled in the technique. He used the pliers to twist the No. 8 wire flexibly in his hands. After a while, an exquisite small lamp stand appeared before his eyes.

Su Chen looked at the small lamp stand made of No. 8 wire and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Comrade Li Yue, this small lamp stand you made is really good and looks very creative!"

There was curiosity and appreciation in his voice.

Li Yue raised his head, gave Su Chen a confident smile, and said softly, "This light stand is also easy to use."
