Wang Weidong took seven or eight retired workers in their fifties and sixties out of the country and rushed to the collective farm on the outskirts of Ussuriysk.

A couple of old men immediately set about repairing the tractor. The machinery of the big northern countries is not as advanced as the small book and the rice country, but it is characterized by solid and durable leather. Wang Weidong was in charge of the missing repair tools, went to Ussuriysk to ask for help from Mistoyan, or dismantled parts from other tractors to replace them.

How could a dozen tractors in a collective farm be repaired in half with this method.

Five days later, Song Yu also rushed to Ussuriysk with three old men.

The three old men were all workers and cadres of the Beijing Electron Tube Factory, and now they are retired and staying at home. Now he was approached by Song Yu to check the equipment that Goncharova had transported here.

There are many processes involved in the production of electron tubes, so the machinery and equipment are also complicated, and it is necessary to carefully check them with experts and knowledgeable people.

Coming to the northern country again, Song Yu was very excited, he regretted that the small city of Ussuriksk was too small.

"Weidong, you are too few friends, the next time you go to Moscow, you must tell me in advance, take me the club you mentioned!" Song Yu said.

Idle, Wang Weidong took Song Yu and the three retired workers and cadres to the collective farm for a spin.

Unexpectedly, the three old men from the capital quickly fought with Wang Haifu and the seven or eight old men. They are all about the same age, and they used to work in state-owned factories, and they all experienced that hot era, so they have a lot of common language with each other.

After repairing the two tractors, Wang Weidong brought in several hundred kilograms of diesel, and Wang Haifu and the others immediately began to turn over the ground. Although I have never driven a tractor, where do you drive in the vast world?

The land that was originally overgrown with wild grass quickly turned up the black soil to press the weeds underneath, and turned the black soil onto the top, and the earth was black and oily.

Song Liancheng, a retired cadre from the capital, bent down and grabbed a handful of soil and sighed and said: "This soil is so fat, I can't wait to get out of the oil, it's a pity!" ”

Of course, Wang Weidong could hear the meaning of his words and knew what he meant by pity.

When Song Yu arrived at the collective farm, he got into the hangar where the An-2 aircraft was placed. He was intrigued by the antique biplane.

"Weidong, I heard that there are many planes like this in the big northern countries, you can repair them quickly, and you can play when I come over after the repair is completed." Song Yu said.

"Play what? Do you know how to fly? Wang Weidong asked rhetorically.

"If you don't know how to open it, you can learn. Besides, you can find someone here to fly a plane and take me to the sky, I heard that there is an aircraft repair plant in Ussuriysk, and it should not be difficult to find someone who can fly an airplane. Song Yu replied.

Konstantin, who was on the side, saw that Song Yu was obviously interested in the plane, so he took Song Yu into the plane.

Konstantin sat in the driver's seat, and Song Yu sat next to him, watching Konstantin control the plane lever.

Finally, Konstantin shrugged his shoulders and pretended to be regretful, and muttered a long list of Russian.

After getting off the plane, Konstantin said to Wang Weidong: "Boss, there should be no problem with the key components such as the engine of this aircraft, and it can be opened after a simple repair in Ussuriysk." ”

"What did he say?" Song Yu asked.

"He said that the plane could be driven after a simple repair." Wang Weidong replied.

"Then fix it. If it's fixed in the next few days, you can take me to the sky for two laps! Song Yu urged.

Thinking of the problem of spraying pesticides on more than 10,000 acres of land in the future, Wang Weidong finally nodded and agreed to repair this antique aircraft with a biplane propeller.

Konstantin immediately helped contact the workers of the Ussuriysk aircraft repair plant to repair the plane.

There were really no problems with the thousand-horsepower aircraft engine, and there were no problems with the control system. The biggest problem with the aircraft is lubrication, which requires maintenance and upkeep when parked in the hangar for two or three years.

From this day on, Song Yu did not go anywhere, did not even return to the hotel in Ussuriysk at night, lived in this dilapidated collective farm, and ran to the hangar to stare at the broken plane when he had nothing to do.

Goncharova returned seven or eight days after Song Yu arrived in Ussuriysk.

In this way, she spent almost half a month in the city of Novosibirsk.

"I've already brought the people, the machinery and equipment are a little slower, and it will take another four or five days to come." Goncharova said.

It's normal for the return train wagon to go slower than the passenger car.

Wang Weidong hurriedly followed Goncharova to the hotel to visit the workers of the 617 electronics factory in the northern country she had brought with her.

What Wang Weidong saw were more than 20 old ladies. Of course, there are young ones, but they look like they are at least in their forties.

Of these, only three were men, and all the others were women.

"Those three men were engineers, and these women were the most skilled workers on the production line that year. It would be two days before Mr. Barentin arrived from Moscow. Goncharova explained.

Wang Weidong hurriedly went up to greet these old ladies.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you are our most sincere friends! You can rest assured, I have arranged your food, accommodation and treatment, and I will definitely satisfy you! Wang Weidong said.

The railway of the northern great country has a wider gauge than China, and the loading capacity is also larger than that of China, but even so, the entire set of tube production equipment is loaded with more than a dozen car boxes.

There are hundreds of large and small equipment, ranging from wire drawing machines, mechanical pumps, oil diffusion pumps, condensers, heaters to equipment for checking the vacuum level of electronic tubes.

Song Liancheng, who came from the capital, took two other retired old workers to inspect the carriages one by one.

The Jingcheng Tube Factory has been out of production since the eighties, and compared with the equipment of the Jingcheng Tube Factory at that time, the equipment on the train is indeed much more advanced than the equipment in China.

It would have taken three or four days for the equipment to be inspected briefly, and that's when Mr. Barentin finally arrived.

Wang Weidong decided to let Song Yu return to China with Barentin and more than 20 skilled workers first.

"The money will be transferred to your account immediately, do you want to go to China with Mr. Barentin and them?" In the capital, there are people who will give them warm hospitality. Wang Weidong asked.

When these people arrived in the capital, Shi Kewei quietly held a welcoming ceremony on behalf of the official.

Goncharova shook her head and replied, "I'm like you, if only I could hide behind the scenes and do a little thing." ”

Song Yu was reluctant to go back so early, but the An-2 plane was repaired in a week, and it was towed back to the collective farm before Song Yu left.

In full view of everyone, Song Yu got on the plane, Konstantin started the engine, and on the sandy road next to the collective farm, which was not in good condition, the plane kept jolting up and down, accelerating more than 100 meters and then rushing into the sky.

This aircraft is very adaptable to the ground.

The An-2 aircraft circled back and forth in the vicinity of the collective farm, and after half an hour it landed again on a dirt road.

After getting off the plane, Song Yu excitedly said to Wang Weidong: "This plane is really good!" It takes just over a hundred meters to take off and land! ”
