On the other side, Ran's father returned to the office, thought for a while, then picked up the phone and called Director Zheng.
Soon the phone was picked up and Director Zheng's voice came from the other end.
"Lao Ran, do you believe it so quickly?"
Director Zheng asked in surprise, not paying any attention to Ran's father's previous behavior of hanging up the phone.
The friendship between them was forged through hard work together and is stronger than steel.
"Old Zheng, I told Mr. Qian about the situation."
"Well, what did he say?"
Ran's father was silent for a moment, and then said, "Mr. Qian said that he was not familiar with this aspect and could not help."
Director Zheng sighed in his heart after hearing this, and it turned out to be true.
"However, Mr. Qian still gave me a suggestion."
After Ran's father finished speaking, Director Zheng became hopeful again.
"What did Mr. Qian say?"
"He said to calm down and overcome the problems one by one."
Ran's father said it more tactfully, but Director Zheng knew the meaning behind it as soon as he heard it.
So he sighed and said, "Lao Ran, I understand everything you said."
"This thing is the same as when we were in the northwest."
"But it's not exactly the same."
Ran's father frowned and didn't say much, but listened quietly.
"To be honest, I have also talked to the boss, but you know, the higher-ups have invested too much in this, and they need to show results."
"The same is true in the logistics department. Everyone is holding their breath and just want to make it quickly."
"But you can't rush this thing."
Ran's father spoke, but the phone was silent.
After a long time, Director Zheng thanked you, "Lao Ran, thank you for this."
"It's nothing, it didn't help much."
"No, I have something else to trouble you with."
Director Zheng spoke again, but Ran's father did not refuse, "You say."
"I heard that the Red Star Machinery Factory is also researching aircraft engines, and the progress is not slow."
"I want you to help me by asking if Yang Xiaotao can lend us the project personnel."
"In this way, the two sides compare, maybe they can spark a collision and find a better solution."
Director Zheng spoke very solemnly this time.
As for this idea, my subordinates also heard it from the Shicheng Research Institute.
It is said that people from the Shicheng Research Institute arranged for people to go to the machinery factory because the seismological research institute was destroyed.
The plan at that time was to 'borrow a chicken to lay eggs', and it worked well. With the resources of the machinery factory, the final parts were made.
But now, it is a waste of money. Not only are people helping the machinery factory work, but also the main force of the research institute have become people from the machinery factory.
This time he searched for the reasons, finally summed it up, and reported the situation below. Only then did he remember that the machinery factory was also studying aircraft engines.
So I thought about taking the research from the Machinery Factory to the Third Machinery Department, and taking advantage of the last two months to work harder to complete it.
It's just that this kind of thing is not easy to do.
After much thought, the middleman found Ran's father.
Ran's father was silent again.
When I returned to the office and thought about what happened to Mr. Wang earlier, I felt sorry for my son-in-law.
Now that Lao Zheng says this again, it is obvious that he is going to trouble his son-in-law again.
But he also knew Lao Zheng's character. Everyone has selfish motives, but Lao Zheng is by no means a person who abandons public service for selfish reasons.
On one side is a man who has been an old comrade for many years, and on the other side is his own daughter.
Ran's father finally decided to remain neutral.
"Old Zheng, I can bring it to you, but I can't guarantee whether it will work or not."
"As you know, he is a decisive person when it comes to work."
"Besides, if we really talk about it, his rank is higher than mine."
Ran's father explained the situation clearly, and Lao Zheng nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, there is nothing I can do, it won't work, Xiao Tao, please apologize for me first."
"I know."
After saying that, the two hung up the phone.
On Saturday afternoon, Yang Xiaotao was assembling a threshing machine in the workshop.
Wang Fa and Huang Degong were all helping.
"Mr. Yang, what's going on in the third branch?"
Huang Degong couldn't help but asked first.
Yang Xiaotao was tightening the screws with a wrench. When he heard Huang Degong's words, he asked without looking back, "What's going on?"
Huang Degong glanced at the people around him and then asked, "I heard that not only the steel plant in Yanzhou is coming in, but also several local factories. This is not a small scale."
Yang Xiaotao straightened up with the wrench in his hand, "You already know everything, why are you asking me?"
"Hey, isn't this just a confirmation?"
"There is such a thing. The leaders above have held a meeting to discuss it. It is estimated that there will be a result in the next few days."
Yang Xiaotao said, taking out his glasses and starting to walk around the machine.
Finally, he came to where he was just now, took off his glasses, and said to Huang Degong beside him, "Put this thresher alone. I'll drive it back tomorrow morning."
"By the way, we also need a matching tractor."
"Okay, let's do it."
Huang Degong slipped out and ran out. Wang Fa looked behind him and came to Yang Xiaotao's side to take out a cigarette.
"It seems that Lao Huang is interested."
Yang Xiaotao lit it with a lighter, and the two started puffing away the smoke together.
"Brother Wang, do you want to go too?"
Wang Fa shook his head after hearing this, "I don't want to go."
"I still have a wife and children at home, not to mention this is Sijiu City. If I leave and want to come back, I still don't know if I have a home."
Yang Xiaotao nodded in approval, but still expressed his position, "If you really want to go, I will support you."
Wang Fa smiled and shook his head, "I'm telling the truth."
"It's hard to leave my homeland. After living here for so many years, I don't want to move."
Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao didn't say anything more.
At this moment, Lou Xiao'e ran in from outside and quickly found Yang Xiaotao.
Hearing that Ran's father was looking for him, Yang Xiaotao thought something had happened, so he hurried to the office and called.
After a while, Ran's father's voice came.
"Dad, are you in a hurry?"
"Well, there are two things."
Yang Xiaotao was shocked.
"First, I heard about your No. 3 factory, and I also know about the thresher, so I want your help to give some of the production tasks of the corn thresher to our No. 7 Machinery Department."
After Ran's father said this, he picked up the water glass and drank some water to relieve his excited heartbeat.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "The situation we are facing in the Seventh Machinery Department is very bad now, and we need this task very much."
After Ran's father finished speaking, Yang Xiaotao nodded.
Besides, corn threshing machines need to be produced and popularized as soon as possible.
Relying on the third factory alone is not enough.
He has already thought about it. When the time comes for the production of the third factory, the first branch factory in the west will also be involved. After all, the corn grown on the northwest farm is not a small amount.
"Okay, this is no problem. You can tell Mr. Wang when the time comes and we will hand over some projects to you."
After hearing this, Father Ran's heart fell back into his stomach as it was stuck in his throat.
Finally, he was halfway done, and he misjudged the current situation.
"The second one is about aircraft engines."
"Of course, I just have a message."
Then Ran's father told what happened, thinking that Yang Xiaotao would continue to agree.
After all, if even the Third Machinery Department cannot make an aircraft, the machine factory will not come up with it.
Unity between the two sides is the way out.
Unexpectedly, just when Ran's father thought Yang Xiaotao would agree, Yang Xiaotao spoke.
"Dad, I can't agree to this."
Ran's father on the other end of the phone was stunned for three seconds, then corrected his attitude and said, "Okay, then I'll tell him."
"Dad, I have a reason for this."
"It's okay, I'm just passing on a message. If you can, you can, but if you can't, you can't."
"By the way, your Uncle Zheng means the same thing. He was so sick that he rushed to the doctor."
Yang Xiaotao felt a little relieved, so he asked, "What's going on with Uncle Zheng? Didn't they say that the engine has been made?"
"Hey, it was done, but it didn't meet the design requirements of the aircraft."
"Ah, what should I do?"
"Change it."
...
The two communicated for a while, and finally Ran's father hung up the phone, then picked it up again, and first called Director Zheng.
Director Zheng was not surprised when he learned that Yang Xiaotao refused.
I can only think of other ways.
Then Ran's father came to Mr. Qian's office and informed him of what the machinery factory had agreed to.
As for Yang Xiaotao, after hanging up the phone, he just thought about it and figured out what the crux of the problem was in the Third Machinery Department.
Or the design is divorced from reality, or the reality cannot meet the design requirements.
Just like when the machinery factory built the three-roller rolling mill, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Qin brought people to ask for it.
And these, when you encounter problems during research and production, you have to consider solving them.
Instead of waiting for others to help you solve it.
After leaving the office, Yang Xiaotao continued to the first workshop and then joined the production of threshing machines.
...
Sunday, Yangjiazhuang.
Yang Xiaotao ran into the village driving a tractor that he assembled yesterday and pulling a thresher on the back.
Behind the car, a group of children were running, shouting loudly.
Along the way, Yang Xiaotao once again enjoyed the feeling of being in the spotlight.
Ever since the machinery factory built a threshing machine three days ago, word spread quickly throughout the villages around Sijiu City.
Especially after the propaganda from local officials and the village's actual statement, everyone just doesn't believe it.
In the past two days, the production of the machinery factory and the first branch factory has gradually improved. After the workers have become more skilled, the production efficiency has become higher and higher. Now the daily output of the first workshop has exceeded 100 units, and the daily output of the first branch factory has also reached 120 units.
Ten units.
After three days, less than half of the tasks assigned by the Academy of Agricultural Sciences were completed.
Of course, this is just a drop in the bucket compared to the vast rural needs.
Fortunately, after the First Machinery Department received the drawings, Mr. Xia and Mr. Sun had already arranged the factory and started organizing production one after another.
I believe that in the next few days, threshing opportunities will grow exponentially.
As the threshing machines produced are continuously delivered to local farmers for use, this machine has penetrated into the hearts of farmers and gained more recognition.
At this time, any village, no, it should be any town, wants to have such a threshing machine, it will definitely be the envy of the people around it.
Under such circumstances, when Yang Xiaotao drove over with the threshing machine that was approved for the farm, one can imagine the scene in the surrounding villages.
At this time, Yang Dazhuang and others had been waiting on the threshing floor. Not only that, there were also many people from the surrounding villages.
The surrounding wheat that has not been finished is also ready. We are waiting for the threshing machine to arrive, and then we will have a live demonstration.
"Here we go, entering the village."
There were shouts outside, and the old man, who was holding a pipe and a pot, immediately stood up from the stone, put up an arbor and looked to the east.
Not far away, a tractor was dragging a large iron box over here.
As for the driver, it turned out to be Yang Xiaotao.
At this time, there were two children standing on both sides of the handlebar. You could tell by looking at their clothes that one was Miaomiao and the other was definitely celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival.
"Quick, get ready, no one will lose their grip in a while."
Mr. Yang shouted to the people around him and picked up the straw hat standing on the stone.
Many people around also put on their hats, and many even rolled up their sleeves, but more people still wore sleeveless mandarins, waiting to get started.
Yang Xiaotao told them on the phone that this kind of threshing machine can thresh more than two thousand kilograms of wheat in one hour, which is faster than a group of them can do in half a day.
For this reason, they took a half-day off yesterday to prepare all the wheat and wait for today.
Da da da
Yang Xiaotao held the handle of the car and greeted the surrounding villagers from time to time.
"It's so hot and I don't even wear a hat."
Yang Xiaotao saw that the faces of the two children were darkened by the sun, so he took off the hat on his head and put it on Miao Miao's head.
"Where's your mother?"
Yang Xiaotao saw that there was no figure of Ran Qiuye in the crowd, so he asked.
Miaomiao stood aside with curiosity in her eyes. After hearing the question, she said, "Mom and Aunt Ping went to school."
"Where are the sisters?"
"They were playing with Coyotito at Aunt Qian's house."
Duan Wu said from the side, but his eyes were staring at the threshing machine behind the car.
The two of them were able to get on the bus and immediately attracted the envy of the children around them.
Yang Xiaotao said a few words to the two children, and the car stopped along the road at the threshing floor.
