The phone on the table rang. The lady picked up the glasses on the table, put them on, and then picked up the phone.
"Hi, I am."
"What? Really?"
"good!"
When the lady hung up the phone, half of the gloom in her heart suddenly disappeared.
"Xiao Zhang, come here."
Outside the door, Xiao Zhang walked over quickly and said, "Leader."
"Go and tell Lao Wang that we will lower our prices, just like that bear."
"Besides, if the other party lowers the price, we will also lower the price. Just keep it consistent."
"In addition, all orders that have not been completed from today will be quoted at the latest price, and the price difference will be supplemented for those that have not yet been sold..."
The lady explained it, and Xiao Zhang recorded it carefully, then repeated it for confirmation, and then asked the lady to sign for confirmation, and then went out to prepare.
After Xiao Zhang left, the lady rang the notification on the phone, but she still had many questions in her heart.
After thinking for a moment, I picked up the phone.
"Hey, Zhai Jing? It's me, your sister Li!"
The lady spoke boldly, and the other party immediately heard the exclamation of Director Zhai of the textile factory.
Within half an hour, the two good sisters who had not seen each other for many years started chatting like this.
"In other words, Yang Xiaotao made the arrangements in advance this time?"
The lady looked curious, and an affirmative voice came from the other end of the phone, "Yes, my old man said that their logistics department is going to gather troops again to go to the First Machinery Department to ask for people."
"Hahaha"
The two laughed and finally agreed to have tea another day before hanging up the phone.
"Steel rolling mill? Academy of Agricultural Sciences? Yang Xiaotao? That's interesting."
The lady's lips curved, "This time, I accept your love."
...
Chemical plant.
Xu Yuanshan put down the phone and immediately called his director.
"Two things. The first one is to open the pressure cooker coil to a new line, and the machine is not allowed to stop when people stop it. If something goes wrong, I will lead you to work hard."
"The second thing is to immediately set up a technical team and go to the Harbin branch factory to produce coils nearby."
"Understand?"
The seven production directors below looked at each other and then nodded.
One of them stepped forward and said, "Director, our workshop will take care of the construction of the factory."
After the words fell, three more people came forward to request a mission.
Xu Yuanshan looked at the four people in front of him. They were promoted after he took office. Although they were not as good as the previous 'old director' in terms of personal behavior, they were definitely unique in their skills.
Moreover, in his eyes, these people who do practical things are more needed.
Just like Yang Xiaotao.
"good!"
Xu Yuanshan selected the candidate and then went about their business. He sat at the table and picked up the phone.
"Lao Yang, I have made arrangements here..."
"You can rest assured that Feiying needs it, and he will never be held back."
...
the next day.
Second Machinery Manufacturing Plant.
Busy, busier than ever.
Since the establishment of the factory, it has never been so busy.
It's so busy that it makes people feel overwhelmed, and it's so busy that they can't find the east, west, north, and south, but they are full of enthusiasm.
Their second machinery manufacturing plant finally opened, and finally caught up with the army that brought glory to the country.
Still, the kind that plays the leading role.
In the dark, there is a sense of sacredness and mission surrounding them, making them full of energy.
At this moment, everyone is so busy that they wish they had two more hands and two more feet.
Factory Director Fang was on the front line and watched all the meals in the workshop.
This sudden notice from their superiors clearly told them that the war had begun.
People all over the country are watching them and cheering for them.
If they lose this war, they will have no shame in doing this.
"Comrades, the horn of war has sounded. It depends on our ability whether we rush forward and fight desperately, or we hide and become cowards."
"Comrades, the city government has sent a letter of condolences, asking us not to have any worries and to work hard to live up to our country and our family."
"Let's have a big fight, comrades, go ahead."
Encouraging slogans continued to come from the loudspeakers, and under this mobilization, the whole city was affected.
Trucks brought in the materials needed for production, and workers put sackcloth on their bodies and carried the things off the trucks.
The men resisted, and the women carried them. When one warehouse was full, they moved to the next. One warehouse was full of pressure cookers, and trucks were quickly called to load them while checking for quality problems.
When the convoy is full, we set off immediately, heading west along the long dirt road.
"Pay attention to the machine. This is our weapon. Nothing can happen to it."
Factory Director Fang stood aside and stared at the operators in person. Several old masters kept their spirits up. At their age, they could still contribute to the country and burn their old bones. They had already risked their lives.
The apprentices around them were full of excitement and wanted to step forward to take over, but they also knew that when the masters retreated, they would need to take over the gun and continue to charge.
"Director, how long can we work?"
Ma Xiaoling is responsible for counting the quantities outside. Now she is free to come over and ask.
Hearing this, Director Fang raised a finger.
"A day? No, a week?"
Director Fang shook his head.
"A month? That machine can't do it."
Ma Xiaoling knew that although this old machine had been installed, it would run into problems sooner or later if it was used so well.
If it breaks again, there won't be another Yang Xiaotao to fix it.
"No!"
Director Fang glanced at the busy crowd and then looked at the distant sky.
"Yes, keep doing it."
Ma Xiaoling's face was stunned, but she quickly reacted.
'No big deal, call Director Yang back again.'
...
At this moment, 'Director Yang', who was being missed, was eating steamed buns on the train and admiring the scenery passing by.
Opposite, Wang Hao was holding Yang Xiaotao's long box. The gun was almost seized by the guard when he got on the train.
The reason is that the station has regulations that prohibit bringing weapons on the train, so there was a lot of commotion during the inspection.
Furthermore, the guards had never seen this gun before, and even veterans like the guard captain were unfamiliar with it. If such a gun was not available in China, it would have come from abroad.
The two were almost arrested as enemy agents.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Fortunately, Yang Xiaotao took out the certificate in time, and then explained that this was a newly developed prototype gun. After some confirmation, he successfully got on the car.
However, when he got in the car, he did not dare to relax because of the control on weapons.
Especially after seeing the power of this gun, I have to be careful at all times.
"Director, how long does it take for us to arrive?"
Yang Xiaotao finished eating the steamed buns and was in a good mood.
"It's almost time. The last stop is Guisui City. Counting the stop time at night, we will probably reach Sijiu City tomorrow morning."
"Really? That's great. It's finally here."
Wang Hao smiled and followed Yang Xiaotao to many places, but this time, he went the farthest and stayed away from home the longest.
However, it is also the most telling one.
From the east to the west, from the plains to the plateau, not to mention the scenery you see along the way, even this experience is something you can boast about when you go back.
"Yeah, I'm home."
Yang Xiaotao looked out the window, thinking of his son's laughter before leaving and his wife's reluctance.
After a long time, Yang Xiaotao woke up from his trance, picked up his notebook, and continued to study machine tool design.
When a person is immersed in his own world, everything in the outside world seems to have been pressed on the fast forward button, and time flies by.
With a whistle, the train slowly stopped, and it was already dark.
Yang Xiaotao then put down the notebook in his hand. Opposite him, Wang Hao was holding a kettle and pouring the hot water into the jar.
Turning over my wrist, it was half past six.
Looking at the sky, I am used to the dark sky at nine o'clock in the northwest, but I feel a little uncomfortable here.
"With this time difference, it can still be like this in China. Sure enough, the land is vast and rich in resources."
After sighing with emotion and seeing Wang Hao busy at work, Yang Xiaotao smiled and said, "This is my treat."
Wang Hao quickly waved his hand, "No, we're almost home. Just have something to eat."
"It's okay, it's not easy to come out."
Yang Xiaotao said, stood up and looked around. Not far away, a man was pushing a silver car and was walking forward.
Yang Xiaotao walked up, talked to the salesperson, and bought two rice bowls.
At this time, although it was a planned economy and supplies were relatively scarce, food stamps were required to buy anything, but they were not needed on the train.
You only need to spend money. Of course, such a rice bowl is not cheap, it costs one yuan.
An average person's daily meal costs less than one yuan.
He was carrying two large round bowls, with rice in the lower layer and some minced meat and vegetables on top. From time to time, you could see strips of fatty meat.
Along the way, several tourists immediately cast their eyes over.
Then someone reached out and asked for a rice bowl too.
Yang Xiaotao sat back and handed a bowl to Wang Hao, and took out two salted duck eggs, one for each person.
Wang Hao was holding the rice bowl. This meal was more expensive than the food in the steel rolling mill.
Watching Yang Xiaotao peel off the duck eggs, put them directly in the bowl, and pull them up, Wang Hao ate them quickly without thinking too much.
Halfway through the meal, the sesame oil of the salted duck egg yolk mixed with the aroma of the meat, plus the saltiness of the egg white, made Wang Hao almost swallow his tongue.
Drinking water, watching Yang Xiaotao eating slowly, he asked curiously.
"Director, do you want to go on a business trip when you come back this time?"
Yang Xiaotao stopped eating and looked at Wang Hao, "Business trip? Let's talk about it later."
"At least, I won't go out recently."
After thinking for a while, Yang Xiaotao gave a definite answer.
The next day, at dawn, the train slowly pulled into Sijiucheng Railway Station.
Yang Xiaotao carried luggage and boxes, followed by Wang Hao. The two got off the car and walked out of the platform, and saw Gao Yufeng waiting at the door.
Run over quickly.
The two hugged each other.
"Xiao Tao, welcome back."
"Thank you. Did you come early?"
"No, I just arrived not long ago. The train arrived on time."
"Yeah, but it's still a bit slow. It would be better if it were faster."
"Haha. Come on, get in the car. Let's go to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences first and then take you home later."
"Are you in charge of the food? Speaking of which, I haven't tried the breakfast at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences yet."
"I promise I won't let you down."
The driver drove all the way to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. On the way, Gao Yufeng asked about the trip to the northwest. Yang Xiaotao also briefly talked about it. The specific report was in his backpack.
"So many have been planted, more than last time."
"No, it has to be seven or eight times that of last time. If we harvest all of this, I dare not say that the country will have enough to grow. At least half of the cultivated land will be enough."
"By the way, how is your salt-resistant corn?"
"It looks okay now, but the details will depend on the results."
The two chatted briefly in the car, and the car quickly arrived at the gate of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.
Yang Xiaotao and Gao Yufeng got off the bus, and the driver wanted to take Wang Hao back to the rolling mill and send his things back at the same time.
Of course, Wang Hao had to drive to pick up Yang Xiaotao.
After following Gao Yufeng to the reception room, Yang Xiaotao walked in and saw Dean Deng, along with a table of breakfast.
A bowl of porridge, an egg, a steamed bun, and a glass of water.
"Dean."
Yang Xiaotao stepped forward, Dean Deng stood up, and they shook hands, "Are you feeling well?"
"Okay, now let's eat whatever tastes good."
"Come on, come on, I know you're coming. I just had someone bring me here. Eat something first."
Dean Deng stood up, came to Yang Xiaotao, looked around, and brought Yang Xiaotao to his seat with a smile. He looked at people with a look as if he were looking at his own children and grandchildren, full of pride.
