The next day, Yang Xiaotao came to the machine factory office to put down his backpack, but before he could go to the workshop to hand over the drawings to Zhang Guanyu, he saw Liu Huaimin walking in from the outside.
"Uncle Liu, why did you come to the door so early in the morning?"
Yang Xiaotao watched Liu Huaimin yawning and joking.
"Morning? I didn't go back last night."
Liu Huaimin said angrily, and then looked at Yang Xiaotao, "You guy, you run away as soon as the time comes and you can't even find me."
"Otherwise, you would have been here last night."
Yang Xiaotao's expression fell upon hearing this, "No, Uncle Liu, isn't the matter of being on duty that night over?"
"Picked it up again?"
Liu Huaimin snorted coldly, "Who said anything about being on duty? There was something important last night."
"What's the matter?"
Yang Xiaotao asked curiously.
Liu Huaimin yawned, and Yang Xiaotao quickly handed the brewed tea to him, "No hurry, please speak slowly."
Liu Huaimin took a sip and said, "Mr. Qin from the logistics department personally brought someone here last night."
It turned out that after Yang Xiaotao left the machinery factory, Mr. Qin brought someone over, and Liu Huaimin blocked him before he could leave.
Later, Mr. Qin explained his purpose of coming, and it turned out that he was here for the three-roller rolling mill.
When Liu Huaimin said this, Yang Xiaotao was not surprised.
You know, a few years ago, when their Hongxing Steel Rolling Plant was running, they still used two-roll rolling mills, and now the rolling mills used in the No. 1 Branch Plant are still the same.
This is a machine used by a large factory with tens of thousands of people in Forty-Nine City.
Moreover, it is a machine that was eliminated by the league more than ten years ago.
This shows the situation of steel rolling mills in the country.
Especially good rolling mills are in short supply.
Therefore, the three-roller rolling mill built by the machinery factory was immediately taken seriously by the higher authorities.
This thing is just like an engine. If it is really ready, it will be a huge improvement for the processing and production of the domestic machinery industry.
Now, preparations have been made in the second workshop. As long as the effect of the three-roll rolling mill passes the test, the machinery factory will be able to add new projects.
For this reason, Yang Youning and Yang Xiaotao discussed it and started planning to open another workshop.
The seventh workshop.
"Uncle Liu, don't you just need a steel rolling machine? Do you need to work on it all night?"
Although he knew the cause and effect, Yang Xiaotao still didn't understand what Liu Huaimin was doing that night.
"You think it's so easy? Mr. Qin just asked for the machine when he came."
"I can't wait at all like that. I just don't want to wait for a minute. I just want to grab the machine and run away."
"The key point is that he won't let me report to Mr. Huang and the others, you know!"
At this point, Liu Huaimin was helpless.
A machine like this rolling mill is not like an engine.
Without instructions and approval from superiors, the machines in this machinery factory cannot be left casually.
If it is lost, the loss will be national property and you will be punished.
He, the dignified secretary of Hongxing Machinery Factory, would make mistakes one day.
"You gave it?"
"Nonsense, Mr. Qin is sitting in the office, staring at me and not saying anything. What do you think I will do?"
Liu Huaimin said angrily, and then drank all the water in the cup.
"Then give it to me. I guess it was probably someone else who got there first, so they rushed to take action."
Yang Xiaotao opened his mouth to comfort him, "It doesn't matter, just give it to me!"
"Nonsense, why don't I give it to you!"
"Then you took people to the steel factory and dismantled it overnight and took it away?"
Yang Xiaotao said with a smile, Liu Huaimin nodded.
"That's not all, our people were dragged to help assemble it, and they haven't come back yet!"
Liu Huaimin yawned and said, "That's right. I just called Mr. Xia. Mr. Xia said that I would give you the items as soon as they were given. The people in the logistics department will give you the full benefits."
"I'm waiting for you to come here just to ask you to hurry up and bring the person back."
"I'm not worried about anything else. I'm just worried that I'll lose my wife and lose our troops, leaving us behind."
Yang Xiaotao nodded immediately after hearing this.
"Don't worry, if they want something better, they won't dare to do anything wrong."
As soon as Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Yang Youning's voice came from outside.
"Chief, why are you here so early?"
The two looked at each other, hurriedly stood up and opened the door, and then saw several people standing at the door.
Yang Xiaotao saw that the leader was Mr. Zhang from the Three Machinery Department, followed by Director Zheng. Next to him, Yang Youning was talking with him.
Seeing Yang Xiaotao and the others coming out, Mr. Zhang nodded and then walked into the office.
When people came to the room and sat down, Zhang Lao asked.
"I heard that you built a new rolling mill? What's the situation? How is the effect?"
After hearing this, before Yang Xiaotao and the others could speak, Yang Youning, who was on the side, was not sure of the situation and immediately said, "Chief, we have indeed developed a better rolling mill, which has better performance than the previous two-roller rolling mill...
"
Yang Youning was still talking when he saw Yang Xiaotao winking at him. He thought he wanted to praise him, so he smiled and said, "Of course, this time is the result of the efforts of comrades, and thanks to Comrade Yang Xiaotao taking the lead..."
Ahem...
Liu Huaimin didn't dare to let him continue. He coughed twice and interrupted, "Chief, you're a little late."
Mr. Zhang raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong? Who's here?"
Yang Youning also realized something was wrong and quickly looked at Yang Xiaotao.
"Well, Chief Qin brought people over last night and took the rolling mill away overnight."
"It's so bad that we can't even start working now."
Yang Xiaotao said helplessly, and Mr. Zhang immediately sighed after hearing this.
"This guy strikes so fast!"
Seeing Mr. Zhang's appearance, Yang Xiaotao and others also realized that something was wrong, but they didn't know whether they should ask.
Mr. Zhang didn't speak. Director Zheng looked at Yang Xiaotao and then said, "We encountered some trouble this time."
Seeing that Mr. Zhang had no intention of stopping him, Director Zheng continued, "We are currently studying aircraft, as you know."
Yang Xiaotao and the three of them looked at each other and nodded.
At the beginning, the cooperation between the Third Machinery Department and the Logistics Department wanted to develop aircraft, so the armored vehicle project was launched. Finally, Mr. Huang directly pushed it to the machinery factory, and then the Kuiniu armored vehicle appeared.
However, now that the armored vehicles are out, it’s not like planes haven’t taken to the sky yet.
"Uncle Zheng, we have known this for a long time, have you figured it out now?"
When talking about the plane, Yang Xiaotao felt a little worried.
Perhaps it was his own arrival that caused many things to happen.
Especially the relationship with the Alliance, because of the high yield of corn, the Alliance pays more attention to China's power.
And this kind of attention is sometimes not a good thing.
Just like the current aircraft research and development.
"How can it be so fast? We are still working on the engine here."
"engine?"
Yang Xiaotao frowned, because there was a large stack of turbojet engine drawings in his space.
However, he looked at those drawings and found that some of the components had very high requirements for materials and processing precision. At the very least, they couldn't be processed by a machine shop.
Especially the core part requires precision machining, and even key parts, such as turbine blades and guide wheels, are formed by precision casting at once.
Even if the machine shop uses Morningstar machine tools to do this, the success rate is not high.
There are also things like the turbine shaft, air intake casing, lubrication sleeve, and diffuser blank that need to be made by turning. These are not simple processes.
Just imagine, there are so many drawings for an engine alone. How many design drawings would there be for the entire aircraft?
How many parts does this require?
Even if the parts are assigned to the following factories for processing, it is estimated that hundreds of factories will be needed.
Yang Xiaotao also thought about taking out the drawings, but with so many engine drawings, he had to find a reason.
"Well, we have already designed an engine."
Just when Yang Xiaotao was thinking about how to break in, he took the opportunity to bring up the engine drawings, but he didn't want Director Zheng to say it directly.
"Have you designed it?"
"Yes, although this matter is an important secret, you are not outsiders."
Director Zheng glanced at Mr. Zhang again, and seeing that the other party had no objection, he continued, "After we have finished the design, we are ready to try production."
"When it was ready for production, we discovered that the domestic infrastructure was too weak, and some good designs simply didn't have the materials and technical support. We had to find a way to solve it."
"So you came to our three-roll rolling mill?"
Yang Xiaotao asked, Director Zheng nodded.
"I won't go into details. At that time, we were asking about this thing in China, but we couldn't find a suitable one in China. Finally, we heard from Mr. Huang that you had built one, so we came over to take a look without stopping."
"Unfortunately, it's still a step too late."
Director Zhang felt pity.
Yang Xiaotao frowned, then glanced at Liu Huaimin, who immediately asked, "Aren't you cooperating with the logistics department? Just use it together."
After saying this, Mr. Zhang on the side looked a little strange, and Director Zheng didn't know what to say.
When Liu Huaimin saw this, he knew that both sides were probably holding back their energy to see who could solve the problem first.
"I'll tell you."
Mr. Zhang doesn't care. After all, it's healthy internal competition and there's nothing to hide.
"Our Third Aircraft Department cooperates with the Logistics Department, but the two sides have disputes over the engine design, and no one can tell the difference. So we each do our own thing, and then choose the better one to equip the aircraft."
"Now, I didn't expect that the other party's research and development would be so fast and it would reach the production stage."
After Mr. Zhang finished speaking, he looked at the expressions on the three people's faces and asked, "Secretary Liu, when will you make another rolling mill?"
Liu Huaimin looked at Yang Youning, and Yang Youning looked at Yang Xiaotao.
In the end, everyone's eyes were fixed on Yang Xiaotao, making him uncomfortable.
"This, if we make it like before, we can make one in three days."
"If you work overtime, maybe two days."
Yang Xiaotao thought about the last discussion with Chang Mingjie and spoke seriously.
"Two days is enough time."
Mr. Zhang glanced at Director Zheng. Although he was sure, his tone was a bit unconfident.
Director Zheng nodded and was about to speak when he suddenly heard something was wrong with Yang Xiaotao's words and asked hurriedly, "What, what do you call the old one?"
"What do you mean?"
After saying this, everyone came to their senses and looked at Yang Xiaotao.
