As soon as I arrived at the factory gate, I saw the open-top 212 jeep of the security department driving out at a gallop, and when I saw Li Lu, I stopped with a creak. It was Zhang Weiwei who was driving, and Pei Lei was sitting in the co-pilot.

"Xiao Li!"

Pei Lei jumped out of the car and pointed to Li Lu.

"I'm looking for you."

Pei Lei strode over, looking very excited and anxious.

Li Lu got out of the car and pushed the bicycle over, and the two stood by the gate and talked, "What's wrong Pei Gong?" What's so urgent? ”

Pei Lei smiled and said, "Good thing." Didn't you say last time that you were going to set up a materials research institute? I passed on your lightweight special steel formula to a classmate of mine, and he was very excited! ”

Li Lu was taken aback, "Pei Gong, are you too rash?" ”

"Don't worry, I didn't expose you." Pei Lei said, "He is very interested in your idea, and the premise is to provide him with sufficient research funds and corresponding research equipment." ”

Li Luhu looked at Pei Lei suspiciously, and said, "Pei Gong, last time I mentioned this matter to you, you didn't pay attention to it, you have changed a little bit." ”

Pei Lei didn't believe what Li Lu said before to set up a research institute, he could hang up in the factory, and he would be responsible for the treatment of R&D expenses and personnel. How much does that cost, how could Pei Lei believe his words as a dime boy, even if he did, he knew that Li Lu couldn't come up with so much money.

However, the situation has changed.

Pei Lei suppressed his voice and said, "I heard Liang Hongbing say that you helped the city government deal with the confiscated smuggled cars and got a bonus of 100,000 yuan." ”

"yes." Li Lu came back to his senses and said in surprise, "Pei Gong, you don't believe that I have the ability to afford this research institute because of the 100,000 yuan, right?" ”

Pei Lei said as a matter of course, "Otherwise? 100,000 yuan! You're a kid, bold! 100,000 yuan is enough for two or three years. ”

This time it was Li Lu's turn to be in a daze.

100,000 yuan to maintain a research institute for two or three years?

Even if the so-called materials research institute has only one main researcher with two or three assistants.

"Pei Gong, you heard it right, it's 100,000 yuan, not 10 million yuan." Li Lu had to emphasize it again.

Pei Lei frowned and said, "It's 100,000, 10 million, don't dream, there is not so much funding for national key research subjects." ”

Waving his hand, Pei Lei became a little impatient and said, "My classmate is willing to come over and specialize in the research of this armor material, as long as you can afford the research funds." ”

Although Li Lu had not yet been able to completely wake up from the research experience of tens of billions of dollars in the 21st century in another time and space, he still hurriedly said, "No problem, Pei Gong, what are the conditions for your classmates?" ”

"One hundred thousand a year! What do you think? Pei Lei gritted his teeth and said.

Li Lu stared at Pei Lei with wide eyes.

Pei Lei smiled awkwardly, hesitated, and said, "Eighty thousand a year is okay, but it's really not good...... You can give 50,000 yuan. It can't be less, he has a national science and technology allowance, and the personnel cost is almost enough, but the cost of this material and equipment is 50,000 yuan a year......"

Even if 50,000 yuan is an astronomical amount for many people in this era, it can only exist in fantasy, for a scientific researcher who is eligible for the national science and technology allowance, the annual scientific research fund of 50,000 yuan is simply ...... Li Lu didn't know how to feel.

In the 21st century, another time and space, more than 100 billion yuan has been spent on more than ten years, and not a single engine capable of being used in a 150-seat passenger plane cannot be made.

And now, the request of a national expert-level materials scientist is only 50,000 yuan a year for research funding!

Li Lu was in a complicated mood, smiled reluctantly, and said, "Pei Gong, just 100,000, I have no problem." ”

Pei Lei thought that Li Lu was embarrassed, and hurriedly said, "Xiao Li, this matter ...... Or I'll talk to the factory and let the factory give some of it. ”

"Don't." Li Lu didn't even think about shaking his head and refusing, and let the factory participate in it, how to get the results done, this is not his ideal state. Knowing that the life of the Guangming Factory is coming to an end, it is stupid to stuff all the research results and patents into it.

"Pei Gong, I guess it's unlikely that the factory will agree to be affiliated, you see if this will work, I'll set up another research institute, which is this private nature...... I don't know if your classmates are willing or not? Li Lu asked.

Pei Lei frowned and thought for a while, and said, "It shouldn't be a big problem, he is an idle job now, and he doesn't care much about the nature of the enterprise, as long as he can let go of research." ”

"That's fine, I can guarantee that, and I'm not going to interfere." Li Lu thought for a while and said, "How many people will come over?" ”

Pei Lei smiled and said, "How many more people do you want, just him, maybe two or three students." ”

"Are there any people who are engaged in engine research?" Li Lu asked, he urgently needs talents in this area.

After thinking about it carefully, Pei Lei shook his head, "You're talking about automobile engines, no one of my classmates is engaged in this kind of research." There is one for boat-powered. ”

"It's okay to use the boat, it's all the same principle." The water at the intersection of Li Road is about to flow out.

"Don't think about it." Pei Lei shook his head, "He is now the deputy chief engineer of the National Ship Power Institute. ”

The implication is that a small private tractor factory on Li Road wants to poach people, lazy toads and eat swan meat.

Li Lu also realized that he was in a bit of a hurry, after all, he still had some thinking in the future, and from time to time he regarded himself as a major general intelligence officer, and occasionally detached himself from the reality of the situation. In fact, Pei Lei has been very helpful in doing this, he doesn't pick good words and persuade him, and Li Lu can't dig it up alone. Even if Li Lu is lucky, the classmates mentioned by Pei Lei have been engaged in special steel research, and the lightweight formula he provided to Pei Lei obviously aroused Pei Lei's great interest.

"Pei Gong, what do you call your classmates." Li Lu asked.

Pei Lei said, "Ma Jintao works at the Shanghai Steel Materials Research Institute. ”

"Is he willing to give up his job in the system to come to the dry port?" Li Lu was a little worried.

Shaking his head helplessly, Pei Lei said, "Instead of half-dead mixing up the salary of more than 20 yuan, it is better to engage in research while you still have some strength." ”

More Pei Lei didn't say anything.

Li Lu can roughly guess what the reason is, it is nothing more than family composition and other reasons, which causes a researcher who is eligible to receive the national scientific and technological talent allowance to be taken seriously, so that in order to be able to continue his research work, he has to "deign" to a small tractor factory, just for a research fund of at least 50,000 yuan a year!

"When will the people arrive?" Li Lu asked.

Pei Lei said, "After the Lantern Festival." Xiao Li, I don't think you need to do it in the research institute, just a few people from Ma Jintao, it's good to put them in the tractor factory, and he can also guide your development. ”

Speaking of this, Pei Lei squinted his eyes and said with a smile in the corner of his eyes, "Xiao Li, what are you going to use to produce tractors?" ”

He knew that Li Lu had nothing, he was poor and white, of course he might not be poor, but the relevant machinery and equipment, not even the factory building. However, Pei Lei was not very disgusted with Li Lu's move, the market economy is imperative, and the Red Star Tractor Factory is the first private factory that the city government clearly supports, which is very representative.

Not to mention him, even the leaders of the Guangming Factory would not be dissatisfied with Li Lu because of this. Of course, there is also the Guangming Factory that does not look down on the Red Star Factory at all, how can a small workshop that does not even have a site pose a threat to a large military factory with tens of thousands of employees?

Even Pei Lei heard some rumors that the city government hoped to strengthen cooperation with the Guangming Factory, and hoped that the military factory could support the local factory.

I almost directly named and expressed the hope that the Bright Factory would provide support for the Red Star Factory.

Pei Lei asked Li Lu like this, and he also had the purpose of verifying the truth of the rumors.

However, Li Lu didn't have any news about this at all, he smiled and said, "My tractor factory was established to provide after-sales service for the batch of vehicles in the oilfield, and it is inevitable that I will trouble Pei Gong for guidance and guidance." ”

Pei Lei laughed angrily, "You kid will pretend to me." Alright, that's it, I'm busy. ”

"You rest and rest for the New Year." Li Lu said.

"I can't rest, as soon as the Lantern Festival is over, the American technicians are in place, and a lot of preparations need to be made." Pei Lei waved his hand and got into the car, Zhang Weiwei nodded to Li Lu, turned around and sent Pei Lei back.

Li Path went straight to the fat man of the logistics department and said directly, "Lao Ding, give me some diesel." ”

Ding Fatzi said, "Okay, what about the application form?" ”

If each department needs to use oil, it must issue an application form, and then the factory office will seal it, and the logistics department will issue it according to the type and quantity on the application form.

Li Lu said, "I'm going to have that thing and I'm looking for you." ”

Ding Fatzi said, "How can I give it to you if I don't have a list." Section Chief Li, if you dragged me out of the house during the Chinese New Year, how can you get diesel fuel if you don't have a list? ”

Li Lu straightened his face and said, "Fatty, you're more serious with me now, right?" Don't talk nonsense, I know you kid has a little oil depot. ”

Ding Fatzi subconsciously looked left and right, and said urgently in a suppressed voice, "You be quieter." Okay, okay, I'll give you some for your good wine and cigarettes, but I can't give it for nothing, I'm a family fund that I saved by taking risks. ”

Ding Fatzi is just an ordinary employee of the logistics department, responsible for the daily management of the oil depot, this is a fat shortage, and he doesn't care about the deputy section chief and deputy section chief. Li Lu used to befriend him purposefully, eating and drinking, and serving him with good wine and cigarettes, which came in handy at this time.

Li Lu said, "Say, what do you want?" ”

Ding Fat Man smiled, the fat cheeks on his face were shaking, suppressed his voice, gestured with a pistol, and said, "You get me this, I like to shoot twice." ”

"That's not going to work." Li Lu didn't even think about it, shook his head and refused, "It's easy to shoot guns, you can make bullets, but this thing can't be given to you." ”

No matter how lax the management of guns and ammunition is, it will not be so relaxed that any employee can get a pistol to keep, even if it is a souvenir. The chief of the security section of the Guangming Factory is an active military officer who is often absent from his position, and the other deputy section chief is the deputy director of the factory office.

In other words, the security section is basically Li Lu's final say, and the weapons, equipment, guns, and ammunition compiled by the whole factory are not a matter of Li Lu's words, and he is still the deputy battalion commander of the militia battalion of the factory, and he is actually in charge.

Which or whose children want to play with guns or something, they don't all have to come to Li Lu's side.

Ding Fatzi thought for a while and said, "It's really a bit wrong." Then it's decided, remember to call me next time you hit the target, and you can't limit the number of bullets for me. ”

"That's okay." Li Lu agreed, "I remember that you are also a militiaman, why haven't you ever shot?" ”

"The militia are all spears, and it's rare to fight for a while. I like to shoot short guns, and I will shoot when I lift the gun, and I will work hard. Ding Fatzi said.

Li Lu said to himself, "It seems that I have to reform the militia battalion, and a model like you must resolutely clean up the revolutionary ranks, you see what you have become fat." ”

Ding Fatty's eyes were about to get angry, Li Lu smiled and stuffed a pack of three or five over, "American cigarettes." ”

Sure enough, Ding Fatzi's attention was attracted, and when he saw the chicken intestine text on the cigarette box, he suddenly smiled, "Let's go, I'll get you oil." What do you want diesel for, that thing can cause a lot of fire, not as good as gasoline. ”

"I got a car, and I didn't have any gas." Li Lu said.

Ding Fatzi took a few steps forward before he suddenly stopped and looked at Li Lu in surprise.

"It's a tractor." Li Ludao.

Only then did Fat Ding recover his surprised expression and lead Li Lu to the oil depot. If Li Lu said that he had a car, it would undoubtedly arouse the curiosity and gossip of a lot of people.
