When he learned the news that Zhang Dahan had been arrested, Li Weidong was discussing the next development of the workshop with Qin Jingru in the office of the poverty alleviation workshop.

"Brother Wei Dong, the number of orders in the port city has decreased a lot recently. Although our workshop has unfinished previous orders, so the workers will not be short of work for the time being, but if this continues, it will eventually affect the

Our workshop.”

Qin Jingru sat on Li Weidong's lap and said worriedly.

"Otherwise, let's reduce the number of temporary workers."

"No, those temporary workers have families to support. They have to support their families alone. If they leave the poverty alleviation workshop, where can you tell them to find another job that earns so much money?"

Li Weidong instantly rejected Qin Jingru's suggestion.

Of course, he has already considered the difficulties faced by poverty alleviation workshops.

In the past two years, because solar panels have become extremely popular in the international market, large foreign companies and laboratories have stepped up research on solar panels.

The principle of solar panels is actually not complicated. Even though Li Weidong has registered all the patents he can think of, he believes that big companies can definitely think of ways to bypass patents.

Li Weidong knew very well that relying solely on a patented technology was not enough to ensure the development of poverty alleviation workshops, so he began to consider new projects a long time ago.

As a time traveler, Li Weidong has a lot of technologies in his mind that are not available in this era. If he takes out any of them, he can sell them in the international market.

but.

Technology requires corresponding industrial production capacity and industrial production level before it can be transformed into products. In these years, domestic technology levels are lagging behind, and many product technicians have production drawings but cannot produce them.

Therefore, you need to choose a product that has a consumer market and can be produced.

The reason for the existence of a consumer market is very simple. Poverty alleviation workshops need to obtain a large amount of foreign exchange in order to contribute to the country, hire more temporary workers, and change the lives of more people.

All this requires that this product can sell well in overseas markets.

In the end, Li Weidong decided on the next project - motorcycle after careful research.

Motorcycles appeared relatively early. In 1884, the Englishman Edward Butler added a power unit to his bicycle and made a tricycle. This vehicle was driven by kerosene.

The real motorcycle powered by a gasoline engine was created by the German Daimler in 1885.

This motorcycle is named "Single Track".

The car's engine displacement is 264mL, the power is 0.37kW, and the speed is 12km/h.

This engine is a single-cylinder, air-cooled, two-stroke.

The speed is about the same as an ordinary bicycle.

But any new product has vitality that old products do not have.

In the following years, motorcycle technology continued to advance.

In 1893, Italian Eric Beinart designed the world's first motorcycle equipped with a four-stroke single-cylinder gasoline engine.

In 1894, the world's first mass-produced motorcycle appeared. It was developed by Hedebrat and Uvmyola. It was a 1488mL, water-cooled, two-cylinder horizontally parallel four-stroke gasoline engine.

However, motorcycles during this period did not become a mainstream means of transportation and could only be called expensive vehicles for a few motorcycle enthusiasts.

By the end of the 19th century, the invention of pneumatic rubber tires, ball bearings, clutches and transmissions, front suspension shock absorbers, spring seats and other accessories made motorcycles begin to have practical value, and they were mass-produced in factories and became commodities. This is

The second generation of motorcycles is called the commercial generation of motorcycles.

Since then, motorcycles have gradually become a means of transportation.

For example, in 1912, the X-8A single-cylinder motorcycle produced by the American Harley Company.

In 1936, the American Harley Company was able to manufacture high-level motorcycles.

Subsequently, Harley-Davidson motorcycles, Yamaha motorcycles, BMW motorcycles, Ducati, Aprilia, Kawasaki, Honda, Suzuki... and other motorcycle brands sprung up.

With the benefit of money, motorcycle technology has developed greatly and soon changed the world's transportation methods.

In these years, research on motorcycle technology was also carried out in China.

In 1951, the No. 6 Maintenance Factory in Beijing produced the Jinggangshan brand motorcycle, which was the first motorcycle in China.

The No. 6 Repair Shop in Beijing was formerly known as the 409 Auto Repair Shop. It is mainly a factory that repairs cars and manufactures accessories.

The workers have no experience in manufacturing complete vehicles, and there are no so-called machine tools. Many spare parts are knocked out by hand by senior workers.

In 1959, my country began to develop its first motorcycle, the Xingfu 250.

In 1964, the Modu Motorcycle Factory was established! From then on, the development process of Chinese motorcycles began!

Of course, because it was just the beginning, the technology was relatively backward, the production level was low, and the quality could not be guaranteed. It is said that at the end of 1960, 21 new cars were tested in the city, and only 6 were safely returned to the factory.

However, this cannot be called a problem for Li Weidong.

As a motorcycle enthusiast in his previous life, he had a whole set of production drawings stored in his mind.

As long as it is taken out, it will definitely produce the most advanced motorcycle in the world.

Thinking like this, Li Weidong couldn't help but feel energetic.

"Oh, brother Wei Dong, why did you hide a stick?" Qin Jingru asked in surprise.

Li Weidong was about to explain when there was a knock on the door outside.

"Director Li, it's me, Fatty Yu."

Hearing Fatty Yu's arrival, Qin Jingru quickly stood up from Li Weidong's lap, straightened her clothes twice, rubbed her little face, and pretended to look calm.

Seeing that Qin Jingru was ready, Li Weidong coughed twice and said, "Come in."

Only then did Fatty Yu, who was standing outside the door, dare to open the door.

Fatty Yu has been hanging out in the pigeon market all year round. He is also a rough and tumble type of person. He is always carefree and informal. Trying to make him polite is almost like killing him.

When he first entered the poverty alleviation workshop, he still went his own way and didn't know how to knock on the door at all. However, Li Weidong subdued him with just one sentence: "If you dare not knock on the door again, I won't care about your marriage to that girl."

Already."

Fatty Yu became an honest man from then on.

Because he knew that without Li Weidong's help, he would not have been able to get the father-in-law's consent.

He also knew that even though Li Weidong was usually amiable, he was actually a man of his word. If he really pissed him off.

He can really do that kind of thing.

After Fatty Yu opened the door, he saw Qin Jingru was there. He was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "Assistant Qin, you are here too."

Fatty Yu is not a fool.

He had long seen that the relationship between Li Weidong and Qin Jingru seemed a bit abnormal, but he didn't care.

Li Weidong is only in his twenties now, but he has developed products such as solar panels that sell well at home and abroad. He earns a huge amount of foreign exchange for the superiors every year, and has also been praised by the ministries and commissions. Now he has become the director of the poverty alleviation workshop.

He became a popular figure in the steel rolling mill.

It is impossible for such a character to be bound by his family, so even though Fatty Yu is Yu Li's cousin, he is not on Yu Li's side.

In his opinion, Yu Li just needs to be quiet at home and be her eldest lady.

Qin Jingru looked at Fatty Yu and said, "Hello Yu Purchasing, there is a shortage of copper components in the workshop recently. It is estimated that they will be used in two or three days. I hope you can purchase them in time."

"Recently, due to the temporary shutdown of the fifth workshop, our steel rolling mill has a temporary shortage of copper components.

But don’t worry, I will definitely purchase it for you as soon as possible.

I have found out clearly that there is a batch of copper components in the warehouse of the machine repair shop. These copper components were originally used to repair machine tools, but because the machine tools were not in use for the time being, the copper components were left idle.

Director Zhang from the machine repair shop and I are good friends, and we drank together last night.

I will go and help our workshop contact this matter later."

Li Weidong nodded with satisfaction after hearing this.

The reason why he hired Fatty as a buyer.

It's because this guy has so many friends.

He has acquaintances in factories and departments of all sizes in the capital.

He can get whatever materials the poverty alleviation workshop lacks.

Li Weidong felt relieved to hand over the purchasing task to such a person.

Qin Jingru did not expect that Fatty Yu would agree so happily.

He smiled and said, "I'll do the purchasing for you."

After saying this, Qin Jingru turned to look at Li Weidong again.

"Director Li, the workers in the workshop are working now, and I have to keep an eye on them, so I'm leaving for now. If anything happens, you can find someone to notify me."

As she spoke, Qin Jingru turned around and left the office.

Li Weidong waved his hand to stop her.

He looked at Fatty Yu and said: "Fatty Yu, you are here because of Zhang Daxing's matter. This matter happens to be related to Qin Jingru, so let her stay."

After receiving Fatty Yu's affirmative answer, Qin Jingru also stopped.

She really sympathized with the female worker.
