After sharing some tasks, the workers in the workshop not only did not feel relaxed, but became even busier.
Yang Xiaotao is no exception. When he has no free time throughout the day, he is either in the office approving documents or working on parts in the workshop, and he has to strictly control quality.
Sometimes it is necessary to coordinate the production of various workshops, and the progress must be unified and coordinated.
This is not only physically tiring, but also mentally stressful.
Thanks to his stronger body than ordinary people, nothing happened.
If it were Yang Youning, he would have been unable to bear it long ago.
In this regard, Yang Youning can only lament that being young is good.
When it was time for delivery, it was Secretary Qian who came to hand over the goods.
This middle-aged man who came from the northwest looked a bit like a teacher, but he spoke directly and cheerfully, very much like a man from the northwest.
Yang Youning and other leaders of the steel rolling mill took Secretary Qian to visit the production workshop. They also demonstrated the assembly of a tractor on site, which was an eye-opener for Secretary Qian.
In the afternoon, we counted the two hundred tractors in pairs and signed their names on the delivery orders.
Then he made a request for subsequent orders to be delivered as soon as possible.
Yang Youning naturally agreed and promised to complete the task on time.
Director Qian then followed the convoy of the steel rolling mill and sent the tractor to the train station. After a lot of work, he boarded the train to the northwest in the dark.
Under the cover of night, everyone looked at the train going away. Yang Xiaotao then waved goodbye to Yang Youning and others and returned to the courtyard.
Since the workers at the steel rolling mill started working the night shift and patrols in the alleys were intensified, the gates to the courtyard houses were never closed.
When Yang Xiaotao returned home, although his voice was lowered, it was still heard by Ran Qiuye.
A week later, Ran Qiuye's body has recovered, and he usually walks around the house holding the little Dragon Boat Festival.
Maybe it's because after giving birth, the body is plumper and the mature flavor is more intense.
This feeling made Yang Xiaotao a little addicted.
"Why aren't you sleeping yet?"
Yang Xiaotao walked to the bed and looked at his son on the crib, "Whose little guy is he?"
"He sleeps when he's full and doesn't make any fuss."
Ran Qiuye looked at the little Dragon Boat Festival lovingly, and reached out to touch the exposed little hand.
"Isn't that good? You only make noise when you make a fuss."
After taking off his shoes, Yang Xiaotao lay down on the bed, stretched out, and heard a crunching sound from his body.
Seeing this, Ran Qiuye leaned sideways against Yang Xiaotao's chest.
"It's so boring to stay at home all day."
"It's almost time. When I'm out of confinement, I'll push him out to bask in the sun and walk around the yard."
"If the weather is good, we will go back to our hometown and stay for two days."
Yang Xiaotao comforted Ran Qiuye. After all, he felt uncomfortable after being trapped in the house for a month.
Ran Qiuye nodded and was not messing around.
"Mom said that the stroller you made can not only sit on it, but can also be put down and laid down. It is so durable that everyone in the yard is envious of it."
"Everyone in the yard now knows that you can make a small car, and many people want to ask you to make one."
Yang Xiaotao smiled, stretched out his hand to lift up Ran Qiuye's loose clothes, caressed his smooth back, and smiled proudly, "That's true, it doesn't matter who the man in your family is."
"Isn't it just a small car, a little bit of wood, and..."
Ran Qiuye suddenly heard that Yang Xiaotao stopped talking and was still mumbling in a wooden way. She was startled and quickly stood up, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
However, Yang Xiaotao hugged Ran Qiuye and kissed her. After a long time, when Ran Qiuye's face was burning, Yang Xiaotao left, and then he looked excited.
"Daughter-in-law, wood is just wood."
Ran Qiuye still didn't know what was going on, but Yang Xiaotao started to explain.
It turns out that when he was talking about making a car out of wood, he had thought, what if wood was used instead of steel to make a car body?
In other words, is it possible to reduce the thickness of the steel and lay a layer of wood on top?
If this is feasible, then the problem of insufficient materials can be alleviated.
Compared with steel, the processing of wood is much simpler. More importantly, today is not the future, where there are many old forests in the mountains. As long as there are enough loggers, the forests can be cut down for you.
"Wood is okay too?"
Ran Qiuye still doesn't believe that wood can be used to make a tractor?
This is too unreasonable.
"Yes, of course, it can be used on the deck of the aircraft carrier, why can't the tractor be used?"
Yang Xiaotao stretched out his hand and said happily, "It doesn't have to be all wood. It can always be covered with a layer of iron."
Ran Qiuye didn't say anything, she just lay on Yang Xiaotao's chest and let her man do what she wanted.
Many ideas came to Yang Xiaotao's mind. If it hadn't been dark now, he would have tried to get a batch of wood.
After recovering from his thoughts, feeling the softness in front of him and Ran Qiuye's gradually steady breathing, Yang Xiaotao carefully hugged Ran Qiuye and fell asleep.
The next day, Yang Xiaotao came to the steel rolling mill after dinner and found Yang Youning to put forward his statement.
When Yang Youning heard that wood was used to make the car body, he refused regardless of whether he wanted it or not. Isn't this cutting corners?
But when I think about it, this may not necessarily be cutting corners, but it is really cutting out materials.
Besides, isn’t it the usual practice to cover it with a layer of iron?
Moreover, if ordinary wood is brushed with tung oil, its sealing properties are not bad.
After Yang Youning finished speaking, he sat there and meditated.
As long as the tractor can pull goods, it will be fine.
The most important thing is the front of the car.
Thinking of this, I picked up the phone and called Secretary Liu.
As for Yang Xiaotao, he went to the workshop to get one and take a look.
There are ready-made ones in the wood factory. Although they are all in pieces, it is not difficult for Yang Xiaotao, an amateur carpenter.
At the door of the third workshop, Yang Xiaotao guarded a pile of wood and began to perform carpentry work.
Wang Guodong heard that Yang Xiaotao wanted to use this to make a car body, which was incredible.
But think about it, the thickness of the tractor body is now eight millimeters, and the thickness of the sides of the body is five millimeters.
It’s not that I don’t want to make it thinner, but that if it’s too thin, the load capacity will be affected.
Eight millimeters is due to the steel. If inferior steel is used, it will not be able to block even one centimeter.
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But if you follow Yang Xiaotao's instructions and lay down a layer of one-inch wooden boards and then lay on five millimeters of iron sheets, then if it is feasible, it will be reduced.
Ordinary consumables.
Besides, some good wood is not bad in hardness.
Wang Guodong was helping on the side, watching Yang Xiaotao piece together the wooden boards into the required size, then put them on the five-millimeter iron plate, and fixed them one by one with rivets.
By the time we had lunch, the base of the truck body had already been made.
In the afternoon, Yang Youning came to the workshop. He communicated with Liu Huaimin that if it was feasible, he would follow this.
For this reason, Liu Huaimin also specially communicated with all parties to explain the current situation. Moreover, the body of the truck is not as useful as the front of the truck and it does not affect its use.
Everyone everywhere understands that, after all, the shortage of steel is nationwide, and as long as the performance is excellent, they have no reason to refuse.
Similarly, if the wooden body experiment of the steel rolling mill passes, it can be regarded as finding a new path for other automobile manufacturers.
Looking at the car body that was gradually taking shape, several people were full of expectations.
In the evening, the first wooden truck body was loaded onto the truck, and the tester drove the truck to load and unload items and conduct experiments in the factory.
After waiting around and unloading the goods, they found that except for some scratches on the wooden boards, there were no other problems.
Moreover, there is no problem with polishing this wooden board. If it is done by a professional carpenter and brushed with a layer of tung oil, the quality will be better.
When Yang Youning saw that it was feasible, he immediately reported to his superiors.
Yang Xiaotao was surrounded by a group of people in the center, asking him how he came up with it. Now it seems that as long as the wood is enough, the materials used to make two carriages can be used to make three. This improvement is huge.
Yang Xiaotao modestly said that he got the idea after seeing his child's wooden cart. Everyone was amazed by Yang Xiaotao's good luck.
The next day, in the largest wood processing factory outside Sijiu City, the workers chatted with each other first, wandering around without any sense of urgency like other places.
Many people are still discussing who will take what job and build 18 legs for whom.
Everyone has long been accustomed to this kind of salted fish life.
For them, working in a factory is just for stability. If they want to live a comfortable life at home, they still have to rely on extra money.
I wandered over to my workplace, greeted myself and prepared to start work, but saw the factory director, who usually didn't show up before lunch, striding in with a group of directors.
The factory director looked excited, and regardless of the strange looks from everyone, he moved to the pile of wood by the wall and asked everyone to come over for the meeting.
"Everyone, listen up. Our factory has taken on a big job and we need everyone's help. Whether we eat bran-thick vegetables or spicy food depends on our own abilities."
The people below looked confused. Usually everyone is a carpenter, taking on private jobs to earn some extra money. No one said anything. Anyway, they rely on their craftsmanship to make a living.
But when the factory director said it so bluntly, no one really thought about it.
The factory director was so happy that he didn't care about it at all. Even the title of "comrades" was changed.
Really, good things come to you.
Not only did the above place a large number of orders, their workload suddenly increased.
What's more important is that for building a rolling stock rolling mill, there will be an additional subsidy of 50 cents.
Where can I find anything good here?
If you can't eat the meat buns falling from the sky, you will complain that nothing good happened and the buns are poisonous.
But if you put in the effort to eat it and swallow it in your stomach, you don’t care what other people say is good or bad.
Their lumber factory itself is a unit that cannot make ends meet. In order to support the work of the 100 people in the factory, he, the factory director, has the shamelessness to go to his superiors to ask for the salary every time.
Now, I also have a side business.
They are all carpenters and rely on their craftsmanship to make a living.
Our entire factory relies on craftsmanship, so what?
The factory director excitedly recounted what the leader of the steel rolling mill had told him this morning, took out a piece of paper from his arms, spat on it and slapped it on the white wall.
When the carpenters heard this, they were stunned for a moment, then realized something and immediately started howling.
No matter whether they are big workers or small workers, they all scream as if they were given an extra dollar in wages.
"Okay, here's the size. Don't make any mistakes, otherwise you won't be able to hand in the task and you'll eat the wasted wood."
"Also, the wood must be carefully selected, polished, and oiled. It's hot now and we have a day's work. No one is allowed to be lazy..."
The factory director shouted from above, and the team leader below had already begun to calculate how to arrange people.
As for ordinary work, just leave it to the apprentices. Anyway, no one will care if there is any delay.
Soon the lumber mills began to take action.
People who were walking around suddenly discovered that the usually lifeless lumber factory was bursting with strong energy, making everyone wonder whether these wood-poking people had taken the wrong medicine.
