Mr. Tao's efficiency was beyond Yang Xiaotao's expectations.
Before noon, trucks appeared on the muddy road again.
What surprised the villagers was that this time the convoy transported not only fertilizers, but also many daily necessities.
I don’t know if it was Mr. Tao’s special care. In addition to each person in the third echelon getting an extra cotton coat, one hundred more sets were given to him. The section chief responsible for transporting supplies didn’t say much and just let Yang Xiaotao watch by himself.
manage.
Let's see what we can do?
No need to think about it?
Didn’t you see that the eyes of the villagers who helped unload the truck were red?
So, after Yang Xiaotao handed these 100 sets of cotton-padded clothes to Yang Dazhuang, Yang Dazhuang divided them up on the spot.
The village immediately burst into joy, and some people even said that these were the new clothes for the New Year.
There is no result yet on the greenhouse matter, but Yangjiazhuang has already received the first wave of benefits.
Of course, there will be more benefits later.
Yang family.
Mr. Jin was talking to Ms. Cui about Mr. Tao's identity, "You don't know, this is a big shot."
"If this were left in Shanghai, it would be a slap in the face."
Ms. Cui's mind was not on Lao Jin at all, and she didn't care at all about what Lao Jin said. At this moment, she was watching the Dragon Boat Festival followed by a group of children feeding pigs in the pig pen.
Because the pig farm was expropriated and converted into greenhouses, the pigs in it were distributed to various households in the village to raise.
Because the Yang family had raised pigs before, they were also given an old sow, along with eight piglets.
"Let me tell you, if I were really generous, I would give everyone one big coat, and I would only give a hundred. Such a big official is stingy."
Lao Jin rolled his eyes after hearing this, "You think these cotton-padded clothes were brought by the strong wind. They didn't ask for a ticket, and they didn't ask for money. If you can pick them up, they must have been squeezed out between your teeth."
He is in charge of the country and knows that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive.
When I was working at the Shanghai Automobile Factory, the tickets in my hands were as good as gold. Most people would not dare to give them to me. Whoever gave them would have to make a record.
"Duanwu, don't go up."
Seeing Duan Wu stepping on the stone wall and preparing to stand on it, Ms. Cui quickly stopped her.
After hearing this, Duanwu stood below, holding a straw in his hand and teasing the little pig.
Seeing that Ms. Cui ignored him, Comrade Lao Jin had no intention of talking, and then walked to the brigade headquarters.
However, he felt quite proud in his heart.
Unexpectedly, my grandson not only does an outstanding job in the machinery industry, but he is also good in agriculture.
Thinking of Yangcun No. 1 again, Comrade Lao Jin was even more proud.
He has already thought about it. When he returns to Shanghai, he must brag about what he saw this time to his old brothers.
In the greenhouse.
After the fertilizer arrived, Yang Xiaotao and Wang Hao prepared suitable soil.
"Mr. Yang, this soil will do."
Wang Hao pointed to the mound of soil brought in from the greenhouse. This was soil dug by Yang Shitou and others from the foot of the mountain. Half a meter below the soil, the soil was not frozen, so it was still loose when it was transported into the greenhouse.
"let's start."
"good."
After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, he saw Wang Hao asking someone to pick up a small shovel, and there was someone next to him holding a beaker, white water, and a box of litmus paper in his hand.
Yang Xiaotao looked at the palm-sized test paper book, and the scene of going to school when he was young emerged in his mind.
At that time, taking the so-called chemistry class was more like a scientific exploration.
He still vaguely remembered the exclamations from those around him when iodine solution was added to the starch and it turned blue.
And the same is true for this litmus paper.
Litmus paper appears red in acidic solutions and blue in alkaline solutions.
Therefore, blue litmus paper should be used to detect acidic liquids, and red litmus paper should be used to detect alkaline liquids.
When the scene of the test paper changing color appeared in front of the little boy's eyes, it looked like starch turning blue.
Yang Xiaotao watched from the side with his hands folded, while Yang Dazhuang, Yang Shitou and others around him were also curious.
When Wang Hao asked someone to dissolve a ball of soil in a beaker, let it sit and stratify, then tore off a piece of red test paper. Then, amidst everyone's exclamations, the originally light red test paper quickly turned into light blue.
"It's changed, it's changed color."
"Shh, don't talk. Didn't you see the teacher is busy?"
"It's really, really amazing. It's like magic."
A few people lowered their voices but it was particularly novel.
However, the corners of Yang Xiaotao's mouth turned up, just like himself back then.
Fuss.
"Record it, 6.8!"
Wang Hao took out the color chart and compared it carefully before making the final decision.
Soon someone wrote it down in a notebook.
"Next..."
Wang Hao moved very quickly. By the time it was getting dark, according to Yang Xiaotao's request, the pH levels of each gradient had been prepared.
At this time, the five greenhouses have been built, the straw curtains outside have been put down, and stoves have been lit in the sheds to heat the sheds in advance.
The next day, Yang Dazhuang led the villagers to dig soil at the foot of the mountain. After returning, Wang Hao directed everyone to start mixing according to the required proportions and adjust the pH.
With the help of the villagers, the task was completed before noon.
In the afternoon, Hou Lijing led her men to start experiments.
This time I didn’t ask for help from the villagers, mainly because I was afraid of mistakes.
This busy work didn't end until evening.
Two-thirds of the soil was turned into each wooden box. There was a wooden sign hanging on each wooden box with a piece of paper on it, which was the information about the use of soil this time.
Early on the third day, Yang Xiaotao, Hou Lijing and others started planting grass seeds.
Put three grass seeds into each wooden box at the depth of a fingertip, then cover and water them.
When all the seeds were planted, it was already noon.
Yang Xiaotao then began to arrange manpower. There were four people in charge of each greenhouse, one shed director was responsible for recording data, and the other two were each responsible for a thermometer and reported the temperature every hour.
The remaining person is responsible for adjusting the temperature. If the temperature in the greenhouse is higher than the set requirement, the door needs to be opened for ventilation.
If it is lower than the temperature, someone will bring in a stove to heat it.
After the arrangements were made, everyone began to wait.
In the afternoon, Yang Xiaotao went back to the machinery factory and took Ran Qiuye and his party back to the courtyard. However, Comrade Lao Jin did not come back and continued to stay in Yangjiazhuang.
First, there are many people in the village and the accommodation is tight, so we can make room for manpower.
Moreover, they could no longer help with work now, and Yang Xiaotao needed to be distracted here, so he returned to the courtyard.
Back in the courtyard, Yang Xiaotao settled Ms. Ran Qiuye Cui down, and then thought about going back to the machinery factory to see the situation.
As soon as he entered the gate, he saw Yang Youning walking out in a car. The two stopped to say hello.
"Is everything over with you?"
Yang Youning rolled down the glass and smelled, while secretary and driver Xiaoqiang winked at Yang Xiaotao from the side, and Yang Xiaotao understood instantly.
"No, come back and get something, go right back!"
As soon as Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, he saw Yang Youning looking decadent, as if he was sighing.
"Where are you going?"
Yang Xiaotao asked back, and Yang Youning said angrily, "It's the pharmaceutical factory, that director Bai..."
Yang Youning seemed to have something to say, but he didn't say any more.
When Yang Xiaotao heard about the pharmaceutical factory, he didn't want to get involved. Director Bai was not a good person.
The force behind what happened last time also added fuel to the fire.
Of course, such people should maintain a good relationship.
Yang Xiaotao knows very well, isn’t there a saying from later generations that explains the true meaning of success?
Behind a successful man, there must be a woman who silently gives and supports him.
And behind a successful woman...
Ahem
Yang Xiaotao coughed twice, put his hand in gear, and stepped on the accelerator, "Uncle Yang, please slow down, I'm leaving first!"
After saying that, the car ran towards the office building.
"You bastard, you run so fast!"
Seeing Yang Xiaotao disappear in a flash, Yang Youning had no choice but to pat the car seat and ask Xiaoqiang to drive there early.
But I felt helpless in my heart.
If a pharmaceutical factory wants to expand its production scale, that's no problem, he wants to do that too.
After all, they are all from Hongxing Machinery Factory, right?
But you can at least come up with a plan to expand the scale. Just put it this way, you need a big jar. I am the director of a machinery factory and I know how to make a big jar!
"This bitch is so difficult to deal with!"
There was helpless melancholy in his voice.
But thinking about the next activities, Yang Youning was in a beautiful mood again.
On the other side, Yang Xiaotao stopped the car and went upstairs to the office.
There was no one in the room, so Yang Xiaotao guessed that Lou Xiao'e had gone to the Publicity Department again.
Thinking of the last task given to Chang Mingjie and the others, Yang Xiaotao wanted to take a look at the situation of the rolling mill.
Research and Development Department.
In the office, Zhang Guanyu was leading people to search for information, and the table was covered with drawings.
And in Zhang Guanyu's hand, there is also a notebook.
This book was used by Yang Xiaotao when he was dismantling and repairing the rolling mill when he was working in the third workshop. It contains the design drawings of the rolling mill that he drew by himself.
Last time Yang Xiaotao left in a hurry and just handed the drawings of the steel rolling mill to Chang Mingjie. He didn't have time to share some ideas. This time he came back just to see how far the research had gone.
But when I saw Zhang Guanyu's appearance, his eyes were darkened and the bags under his eyes were a lot bigger. It was obvious that he hadn't had a good rest these days.
As for the others, it's the same. That's how their R&D department works. When nothing happens, they can wander around the entire workshop.
But when there are tasks, it is the busiest department.
Everyone lowered their heads and were busy with what they were doing, so that when Yang Xiaotao walked in, no one noticed.
"Director Zhang."
Yang Xiaotao spoke, and then Zhang Guanyu realized that Yang Xiaotao was standing next to him.
"Yang, Mr. Yang."
Zhang Guanyu was startled, and when he saw it was Yang Xiaotao, he quickly put down his notebook and stood up to say hello.
"When did you come back?"
Zhang Guanyu took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes, looking cheerful.
"I just came back and came to check on the situation."
Yang Xiaotao said, then looked at the information on the side, "How is the research going?"
Yang Xiaotao picked up the drawing on the table, which should be part of the design drawing.
But it's obviously enlarged a lot.
"There is some progress in the research, and you are here to help take a look!"
Zhang Guanyu said, waving to the people studying on the side, and someone immediately came over with a stack of drawings.
"This is the result of our attempts these days."
"This is the design drawing of the three-roll rolling mill, which we improved based on the structure of the existing rolling mill..."
Zhang Guanyu explained the design concept, and Yang Xiaotao reached out and took the drawing and looked at it carefully, but his brows furrowed slightly.
According to the name, this three-roll rolling mill only has one more roll, but the real thing is not just one.
The reason why Yang Xiaotao felt something was wrong was because the extra roller was right next to it, as if it were listed. If it were that simple, it would probably be possible to make it with four rollers.
Moreover, this kind of design that only adds part of the structure but ignores the overall layout is obviously unreasonable!
If Yang Xiaotao were to do it, he would never design it like this.
Of course Yang Xiaotao understands these people, after all, no one has ever seen a three-roll rolling mill!
When Yang Xiaotao shook his head, the researchers in the room were a little disappointed.
Zhang Guanyu was equally helpless.
Just imagining things out of thin air is the most hopeless and the most unreliable.
Yang Xiaotao didn't say much, he just put down the design drawing in his hand, then sat on a chair aside and picked up paper and pen from the table.
When everyone saw it, their eyes lit up.
They are all old people in the R&D department, and they all know that their boss is a powerful engineer.
Although it is only level nine, that is because there is no grade examination.
Some people even suspected that if Yang Xiaotao took the assessment from his superiors, he would be at least an eighth-level engineer.
Seeing Yang Xiaotao writing, everyone gathered over to study.
Yang Xiaotao picked up the design drawing of the steel rolling mill, thought about it for a moment, and then began to modify it.
The first machine Yang Xiaotao came into contact with was the rolling mill, and he was most familiar with the Alliance rolling mill used in the machinery factory.
In addition to the books on machinery brought back from Kazakhstan, although there were no direct design drawings of the rolling mill, Yang Xiaotao still understood the theoretical development direction of the machine.
Right now, all he has to do is put these theories into practice.
"The future direction of machinery development will be more convenient automation..."
After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, he drew a line on the drawing of the two-roller rolling mill.
"Everyone's thinking is changing in this direction, so some things cannot be fixed!"
"Like this one, all three are fixed, so why not let the middle one move?"
In a word, everyone felt like they had an enlightenment.
