Seeing Yang Youning sitting at the table, after looking at him, a smile appeared on his face. Yang Xiaotao immediately stepped forward and said, "Director, I'm reporting back."
"You kid, sit down quickly. This time we went out, we had a good meal."
"Hey, Director Wang of the No. 1 Machinery Factory has invited us as hosts several times, and the food is not bad."
Yang Youning picked up the water glass and looked at Yang Xiaotao, "It's not bad, you drank it down."
"Uh! Just drank a little."
"Come on, where did the name Wang Dahai come from? You don't know and I don't know yet? I didn't expect you, a kid, to be so good at drinking."
"But it's good to be able to drink. If anything happens in the future and I need you, you have to support me."
Yang Youning said, Yang Xiaotao was confused.
Under what circumstances do you need this? Do you need to drink to solve it?
Yang Youning ignored Yang Xiaotao's doubts and took out a commendation document from the drawer, "My superiors called me on Saturday to praise you for your good work."
"This was delivered to me yesterday. Take it and see for yourself."
Yang Xiaotao quickly stepped forward to take it.
"Third class merit?"
Yang Xiaotao took a look, and was surprised for just a moment, then he immediately returned to normal.
"You kid, be satisfied. This third-class merit award was given to you by Liu Dehui. They have a close relationship with the army. It seems that you have solved quite a problem this time."
Yang Xiaotao rolled up the documents and put them away. He didn't feel anything at all. These things were often seen on the Internet in later generations. They were piled up by so-and-so old men, and so-and-so were placed on the kang.
What's the use?
He is not from the army.
At least it hasn't been of much use in the past few years.
"It's nothing, it's just my job. My job."
Seeing Yang Xiaotao's calm look, Yang Youning shook his head unamusedly.
Although it is a third-class meritorious service, it is not something that people in the army can obtain, so it is not easy to obtain it.
This guy still doesn't know the weight of it.
He took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer and threw it over, "Don't disturb my work if you have nothing to do."
Yang Xiaotao quickly continued and then laughed.
"Um, factory director, I really have something to discuss with you."
"Say something quickly."
"I want to build a steam power machine, just to use it in a water pump, so that I can quickly dig a well. With this pressurized water well, I can irrigate more land. I am working on a specific plan."
"What? What did you say?"
Before Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Yang Youning stood up from his seat.
"I said I wanted to build a steam engine..."
"Steam engine? New project?"
Before Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Yang Youning confirmed eagerly.
"That is not a new project. After all, the steam engine has been around for more than two hundred years, and it is now used in many countries in China. It is not considered a new project."
"I just used it to study and see if it can be used in well-drilling machines."
Yang Xiaotao is still very cautious, especially now that a lot of steam engines are used in China. Even when internal combustion engines became popular later, steam engines were still playing a role.
Moreover, after he inquired about it, he found that there were factories that had manufactured steam engine locomotives and even steam-powered tractors in the past few years.
He didn't want to make any innovative inventions, he just wanted to solve the power problem of pressurized water wells.
"You wait for this matter first, I will ask someone to come and discuss it together."
After hearing this, Yang Youning was not only not disappointed, but even more interested.
Even when he heard about steam engines, he became very interested, which puzzled Yang Xiaotao.
"Xiao Li, Xiao Li!"
The door was pushed open and Xiao Li ran in.
"Go and call Xu Yuanshan and Chen Gong."
"yes."
Xiao Li ran out. If Secretary Liu hadn't been on a business trip, he would probably have called him.
After a while, Xu Yuanshan and Chen Gong came over, and they sat aside.
"Okay, tell me quickly, what good stuff is it?"
Chen Gong heard that Yang Xiaotao had a new project, so he asked Yang Xiaotao to talk about it first.
The achievements achieved by the steel rolling mill during this period are eye-catching.
Even the superiors would call me every few days. In addition to praise, they would also add tasks, especially for heating stoves. People stationed in the south responded the most strongly to places with high altitude and low temperature.
Many places are waiting. Several factories in the south are at full capacity, but they still cannot produce.
The problem in the south has been solved, but in such a large area in the northwest, the market is even bigger.
And in order to ensure quality, many orders have been sent to their rolling mill. During this period after the year, the heating furnace production workshop has been operating at full capacity.
As with heating furnaces, pressurized water wells are equally popular.
Under the promotion of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, superiors have distributed the drawings to machinery factories in various places in order to implement them as soon as possible.
Now, their steel rolling mill has become the leader of new industries, which is why Secretary Liu is called out every now and then.
There is no way, if the economy wants to develop, there must be a way.
If you rely on your old business, you will have to eat it up sooner or later.
Yang Youning looked at Yang Xiaotao, eager to try.
Later, Yang Xiaotao wrote the words "well drilling machine" on the paper, and then began to talk about his idea.
The three of them listened quietly and nodded from time to time. When Yang Xiaotao talked about steam engines, their eyes lit up.
However, they did not interrupt Yang Xiaotao's narration, they just looked at each other, not knowing what they were thinking.
After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, the three of them looked at each other, and finally Chen Gong spoke first.
"This thing sounds good. Drilling water wells and then matching them with the pressurized water wells we produce is a perfect match."
"I think it can be done."
Xu Yuanshan nodded, "I agree. But we need to get samples first. If the cost is too high, it will be inconvenient to promote."
Yang Youning nodded, he could see that the most important thing here was the steam engine.
Steam engines are not simple things. Their steel rolling mill can get some heating furnaces with simple technology, but making steam engines is a bit difficult.
But having said that, if the steam engine was really simple and practical, it would be of great use.
A few years ago, the Luoyang Tractor Factory thought of manufacturing a coal-fired tractor, but later it was abandoned because the steam engine was too big and unsuitable.
If Yang Xiaotao really builds this kind of steam engine, let alone a well-drilling machine, even if his legs are broken, a separate workshop will be built for him to specialize in the production of steam engines.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Do it with confidence and boldness, and then talk about it after you get it done."
Yang Youning held back his emotional excitement and made a firm decision.
Afterwards, Yang Xiaotao turned around and left, returning to the office.
He needed to quickly produce a steam engine. Although some information was missing, what he needed was a small and simple steam engine. It was too complicated to be produced in a steel rolling mill and too big to be promoted.
Yang Xiaotao thought a lot, so he took out his notebook in the office and started calculating.
After Yang Xiaotao came in, Lou Xiao'e just said a few words to her, then sat at the table and read books, writing and drawing in the notebook from time to time. She couldn't understand it, so she had to read in the books on her seat.
Such days seem boring, but in Lou Xiao'e's heart, such days are quite good, at least better than staying at home.
On the other side, Yang Youning and the other three did not end the meeting after Yang Xiaotao left.
"Lao Yang, give it to us this time."
Chen Gong still spoke first, and the three of them understood the meaning behind his words.
It is nothing more than the task of processing and building a water well. As for whether it will succeed, Chen Gong believes in Yang Xiaotao's ability.
"This hasn't even happened yet, and you're already starting to take action?"
Xu Yuanshan said something, but Chen Gong didn't take it seriously, "I believe him."
Xu Yuanshan snorted coldly, "It's not your turn."
Yang Youning listened to the two chattering, but lit up a cigarette, "I think the R&D team with only two people is still too small."
"I plan to add a few more people."
After Xu Yuanshan and Chen Gong heard this, they immediately understood what Yang Youning meant. They wanted to add more burdens to Yang Xiaotao.
Although it may not be too heavy, it can make people feel that they attach great importance to Yang Xiaotao, which is enough.
"How many should be added? Who should be added?"
Xu Yuanshan asked.
They didn't take the R&D team seriously before, but the emergence of the heating furnace pressure well proved the value of the R&D team.
It's just that when they placed Yang Xiaotao as the leader of the R&D team, it was purely for the sake of being a clerk given by the Academy of Agricultural Sciences and to increase his honor.
The same is true for Lou Xiao'e's subsequent arrangements, which are purely regarded as an idle department.
Unexpectedly, Yang Xiaotao was actually asked to achieve results.
But even so, the status of Yang Xiaotao as the team leader is not clearly defined in the factory. Even if the superior comes, he is still the team leader.
"The personnel are selected from the factory. They must be diligent and willing to learn. It is best to be young and energetic, and to be able to keep up with Yang Xiaotao's ideas."
"Can't hold back."
"I will discuss the specific number of people with Old Liu when the time comes and listen to his opinion."
The two nodded after listening, but they knew in their hearts that with the increase in the number of people this time, a team leader would definitely not be able to do the job. They just didn't know what status Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning could give them.
The meeting ended and the two people left.
Yang Youning was still sitting on the chair, his face unchanged.
In fact, adding people to Yang Xiaotao has another meaning.
As Yang Xiaotao's performance became more and more outstanding, it became more and more difficult to retain him, and he had to think about the future.
If Yang Xiaotao is transferred or goes on a business trip or something, someone in their steel rolling mill will have to take over.
Now if people follow Yang Xiaotao, they can learn some skills.
This can be regarded as a precautionary measure.
But he wasn't sure how effective it would be.
At noon, Yang Xiaotao was still looking at the book, but Lou Xiao'e stood up.
"Gong Yang, it's time to eat. It's time!"
Yang Xiaotao looked up and saw Lou Xiao'e's confident face, raised his hand to check the time, "I almost forgot to eat."
Then he put the notebook inside the book and walked out with Lou Xiao'e.
In the corridor, people from the Publicity Department also began to go out to eat.
Xu Damao followed Yu Haitang, and they were talking and laughing. As soon as they went out, they saw Yang Xiaotao walking side by side.
Xu Damao's expression changed, especially when he saw Lou Xiao'e looking at Yang Xiaotao for a long time, he felt uncomfortable in his heart.
Yu Haitang saw a smile on Yang Xiaotao's face and spoke first, "Gong Yang, are you back?"
Don't reach out to hit the smiling person, even though the relationship between the two is not harmonious.
Yang Xiaotao nodded and replied, "Yes, I'll be back on Saturday."
"It's pretty fast. I heard that everyone in Quancheng praised me when I went out this time. I haven't finished writing the broadcast script yet. Is there time to talk to you this afternoon?"
Yu Haitang narrowed his eyes with an expression of admiration.
“I’m very busy these days and I don’t have time!”
Yang Xiaotao walked down the stairs and spoke slowly.
Lou Xiao'e followed behind with a smile. Although she didn't know what Yang Xiaotao did in Quancheng, it must have been something big.
When Yu Haitang saw this, the smile on his face disappeared. Xu Damao on the side sighed when he saw Yang Xiaotao walking away.
"Haitang, it's time to eat. I heard that the chef of the second cafeteria makes the pot-wrapped pork very well. I'll treat you to this one!"
When Yu Haitang heard this, he immediately turned around enthusiastically, "That's a lot of money."
"I'll buy it for you regardless of money, I'll be happy."
"Thank you, Brother Damao!"
In the second cafeteria, Yang Xiaotao and Lou Xiao'e walked straight over. There were people queuing at the door. Yang Xiaotao saw Wang Fa and others and went over to say hello.
Then I walked to the back and lined up.
“Unexpectedly, with a new chef, the Second Canteen has come back to life!”
Yang Xiaotao knew Zhang Qingjun's ability and admired him in his heart.
Lou Xiao'e listened and nodded, "The craftsmanship of this master is no worse than that of Shazhu. The main reason is that he has enough oil and water, and he doesn't pay much attention to cooking. Everyone has eaten here several times and they all come here."
