The old days(41)

Lin Yutong understood without the fourth master having to answer.

He must have chosen the steel industry.

It is easy to take advantage of the strong steel-making wind that will blow soon.

Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult for one person to move the entire building.

Under the current conditions, the only thing we can do is to borrow strength.

He was waiting for such an opportunity, and there was not much time left for him to prepare before this.

To completely break with Su, not only did he want to tear off this pro-Soviet skin as soon as possible, but more importantly, the identity of this translator hindered him from doing things. And not only this, the future independent technology and patents may also

Because he was too close to experts from the Soviet Union, unnecessary disputes arose.

Therefore, he acted very decisively. After insinuating the internal situation of the Soviet Union, there was no room for change with the experts of the Soviet Union.

In fact, after spending so many years together, do you have any feelings for these experts?

There must be some.

But no emotion can override national interests. This is the most basic principle.

She said: "Homemade steelmaking basically does not produce qualified steel. I remember a statistic that said that 20 billion was lost in one year."

Fourth Master nodded.

So, being able to recover a little loss is just a little loss. Knowing that there will be a loss but not trying to make up for it will make you unable to sleep well at night.

People should have a direction. With a direction, there is motivation.

Today's research center can be regarded as a relatively cold department in the factory. They all recognize experts from the Soviet Union, but they are our own and no one recognizes them.

Lin Yutong was worried at first that no one would be available at the Fourth Master's house. Unexpectedly, there were not many people at work during normal working hours. But at night, the house became lively. Some old technicians came to the house secretly.

More than a dozen people were in the study room at home, either on the kang or on the desk, buried in piles of old papers.

Lin Yutong moved all the usable tables at home and set up the kang table. On the small clay stove at the door, the tea in the big kettle was steaming. When the weather got cold, the fourth master moved the small oven in.

I went to the study room. This roasted sweet potato is also good, it is stuffed to the brim, and the whole room is filled with the sweet smell of roasted sweet potatoes.

As a result, the study began to become a forbidden area again.

The sun was shining brightly in Danyang, and no one was allowed to go in. Duanyang was an exception, and he helped with odd jobs inside.

This made Danyang feel uncomfortable, "Our teacher asked me to come back and practice songs? Are we going to perform at the New Year's Day party?" But loud noises are not allowed at home.

Lin Yutong sent her to the wing: "Close the doors and windows, and sing as much as you like."

How can it be done?

If you don't dare to sing loudly, it won't help you practice singing.

So the girl ran out and called the classmates in the factory who were all in the choir. After a while, voices came out, the children's voices were loud and passionate: "...revolutionaries are always young...he is like a big pine tree

Evergreen in winter and summer... He is not afraid of wind and rain... He is not afraid of cold weather... He neither shakes nor moves... He will always stand upright on the top of the mountain..."

When the song came out, Lin Yutong was in a trance, as if she had returned to that difficult and hard-working war-torn era. When she couldn't help but hum along, there was also excitement or progress in the study,

Or a low singing voice. This made her laugh involuntarily.

Whether they admit it or not, everyone nowadays can be considered a revolutionary.

This winter, because of the awareness of contributing to such a revolution, the whole winter has been invisibly warmer. Even if they are unknown or even secretive at the moment, they all know what will happen if they produce results.

a meaning.

As for Lin Yutong's family, the most consumed item is sweet potatoes.

Everyone has a quota of sweet potatoes. One pound of whole grains can be exchanged for five pounds of sweet potatoes. Many people do this in the winter. At least they can eat more. When spring comes, there will not be many sweet potatoes.

But even if Lin Yutong took out all the coarse grains at home and exchanged them for sweet potatoes, he still couldn't feed the more than ten people at night with one or two large sweet potatoes each.

We have to find a way. Where can we get sweet potatoes?

Even my hometown didn't give them that much. Liu Lingdang sent two big bags, but they couldn't provide enough food for a month.

Lin Yutong went to Mrs. Miao and bought it from her house.

The Miao family’s yard is almost self-sufficient. Let’s not talk about vegetables. This season’s sweet potatoes, my dear, have harvested more than two thousand kilograms. If the family of three uses sweet potatoes as food, no one will be hungry anyway.

.

But after all, people don’t need so many.

Lin Yutong went over and bought half of it, moved it home and put it in the vegetable cellar.

These are actually quite high prices, costing dozens of dollars. To Lin Yutong, this is nothing. But this made Duanyang very distressed, "I said it was a secret door opened in the wall of our house, and we usually piled firewood on it."

No one noticed. It’s night, and if we can go out from the door, there is still a small acre of open space outside the wall that can be planted. If we plant all the sweet potatoes... how much money can our family save!"

Saving money is a trivial matter, but the key is not having too much food!

In the past two years, the policy above still said "to discourage the blind outflow of farmers", but now it has become "to stop the blind outflow of farmers". The difference between these words is very illustrative.

The food supply in the city is still getting more and more difficult.

Yes! The population has increased dramatically and food production has not increased, but more and more food rations are needed.

What can be done?

Lin Yutong's heart was moved, "Let's start spring! Let's start spring. Your uncle and I will think of a way. Let's see how we can block everyone's sight."

As the Chinese New Year is approaching, Lin Yutong makes clothes for the family.

The girl's clothes are easy to make, but Chaoyang is still a little boy and doesn't pay much attention to what she wears.

On the other hand, it was Duanyang, and he had to make two sets of clothes. Lin Yutong asked him: "Is the Chinese tunic suit okay?"

The four-pocket tunic suit is the most popular attire today.

Duanyang laughed happily: "Okay! It can be done."

Danyang pursed his lips: "I want to dress up this year."

Why do you still pretend to be so young?

Okay! I’ll do it all for you.

Asked Chaoyang, Chaoyang said: "Don't show your buttocks."

The requirements are very low, as long as you don't wear crotchless pants, any clothes will do.

But the fourth master said: "I'll make myself a good couple and go to school after the Chinese New Year."

It’s time to join the first grade again.

Chaoyang was a little shocked: "I'm not old yet."

This kid was playing wildly in the nursery. The nursery is the kind of place where children can have fun as long as they don't cry or make trouble. There are many younger children in there who need too much energy from the teachers, so like

Children who are as big as Chaoyang and can play well without adult supervision are much more relaxed. As long as they don't leave the nursery door and don't do dangerous things, then they can play as they please.

He went there just to play. At noon, he and his aunt ate lunch brought by his grandma. Then he took a nap in her aunt's office. After sleeping, he continued to play. In the evening, his elder brother picked him up and took him home. After dinner, his father had an hour to teach.

Then he has to get busy. He has to spend another hour to learn and remember what his father taught him under the supervision of his mother or sister. After that, it is time to play.

I'm used to it these days.

And now when I was told to send him to school, my first reaction was that I didn’t want to go. Then I directly gave the reason: he’s not old enough.

Danyang said: "I was not old enough when I went to school, but I still managed to get the first place in the exam." She said with a serious face, "When school starts, there is no need for big brother to send you to school. You go to school with me, and I will go to your classroom when school is over.

I'll pick you up at the door..."

This is a possibility that is impossible to strive for.

With a bit of a sluggish mind, he made a request to his father: "Make me a table tennis racket."

You can do this! Exercise.

It is difficult to buy, but not difficult to make. Instead of making it for the fourth master, Duanyang made one for him the next day. It was made of plywood. He was afraid that the thorns on the top would pierce the flesh, so he fixed the edges on the top.

discarded tire rubber.

I don't know if it's easy to use or not. Anyway, this kid is so lively that he just took it and ran out to the door to play.

The place at the entrance was large, and there was a family there. A few children placed a row of bricks on the ground and started playing table tennis without anyone disturbing them.

Fan Yunqing saw this, and then he proposed to the factory that a stadium should be added to enrich the employees' spare time cultural life.

Where should the stadium be located?

After many comparisons, we finally settled on a blank space between townhouses and single-family homes. There is about seven or eight acres of land, which is made of cement. There is no football field, only a basketball court, four

There is a basketball stand, surrounded by a table tennis table made of cement boards. On the outside, there is a circle of wooden chairs for people to watch and rest. This is a good place.

Since the stadium was built, men have had a paradise.

People who play ball, chat, and play chess all gather here.

Soon, this place became another center of the factory. Then the Publicity Department painted two blackboards on the walls on both sides. One posted a blackboard to let everyone know the policies in a timely manner. The other posted notices and announcements from the factory.
