The two entered the cafeteria and quickly lined up, it was Sister Meng who was cooking at the window, Yang Xiaotao didn't speak yet, Sister Meng's eyes were sharp, and she immediately said enthusiastically.

"Brother Yang, are you back? I haven't seen each other in a while. ”

Yang Xiaotao smiled and said that he was on a business trip, and then asked for a meat dish and vegetarian dishes, and two old noodle steamed buns.

Sister Meng saw a spoonful and went down, spread a layer of meat on it, and covered it firmly in the lunch box.

Both of them knew that it was inconvenient to speak, so they simply said a few polite words.

"Go back and see Brother Zhang."

"Good!"

Yang Xiaotao left with the lunch box, Lou Xiao'e also went up to cook, and Sister Meng politely filled a spoonful.

Yang Xiaotao found Wang Fa and a few people just sat down, and Wang Guodong next to him squeezed in with a lunch box and squeezed Wang Fa aside.

Li Nan and Jiaqi at the same table were all wondering, when did the director come over to eat?

It's just that they don't dare to say it, now the third workshop is busy and earns a lot, if you offend the director and transfer you out in one sentence, it will be a big loss.

Several people distanced themselves, knowing that the director was looking for Yang Xiaotao, and they all pricked up their ears to listen.

took the chili sauce on the table and deducted a chopstick, Wang Guodong said with steamed buns.

"I heard you're going to do something again?"

Yang Xiaotao was not surprised, and guessed in his heart that this was the case.

"Well, but I haven't skimmed the eight characters yet, it's a little early."

"Early? It's not early, that guy from Lao Sun is going to look for you in a canteen, thanks to my careful heart, I know that you will come here. ”

"I won't say much else, Lao Sun, this guy is a good person, if you can help, you can help."

It will be Yang Xiaotao's turn to be surprised, and he was surprised when he looked at Wang Guodong.

"What do you think I'm going to eat alone? Add insult to injury? ”

"Uh, isn't it?"

"Grandma's! Who are you Lao Tzu? ”

Wang Guodong blew his beard and glared, very dissatisfied with Yang Xiaotao's answer.

After a long time, he stuffed a mouthful of steamed buns into his mouth, "This heating stove is enough for our three workshops to be busy, and I still understand this matter if I chew more." ”

"Besides, the eight workshops have got pressurized water wells, if Lao Sun misses this time, how to raise his head in the workshop in the future, even the workshop workers will have opinions..."

Wang Guodong said, and Yang Xiaotao nodded silently when he heard it.

"I can't guarantee it, but as long as the factory director agrees, I have no opinion."

Yang Xiaotao thought about it, although there were a few people in the first workshop who didn't deal with it, Sun Guo was still worth befriending.

"You just have to know what you know."

Wang Guodong was in a hurry to go back to the workshop to work, and after eating, a few people left the cafeteria.

In a cafeteria, Liu Lan looked at the people eating, familiar faces were rare, and even the people eating were not as lively as before.

Putting a spoonful of food on Xu Damao, Liu Lan also wanted to say a few words to Xu Damao, after all, they had worked together for so long, and they knew each other.

Unexpectedly, Xu Damao didn't care about her at all, and was polite to the woman behind him, and even grabbed the lunch box and ordered another meat dish.

Yu Haitang.

Liu Lan recognized who this woman was.

Seeing Xu Damao diligently following Yu Haitang, Liu Lan threw the spoon and immediately changed.

Back in the back kitchen, Liu Lan looked at the stupid pillar lying there leisurely and said a few words angrily.

"Silly Zhu, didn't you see Xu Damao getting together with Yu Haitang, that virtue, disgusting!"

Silly Zhu frowned when he heard this, "Who?" Xu Damao and Yu Haitang? ”

"Is this woman stupid or stupid? Xu Damao's bad species can also be seen? ”

Liu Lan fanned the flames, "What's the matter, Xu Damao has a sweet mouth and a little money, and that woman doesn't like it?" ”

Silly Zhu was stunned for a moment, and then he was dumbfounded.

"Xu Damao of the dog day."

Silly Zhu scolded, and then listened to the surrounding cooks talk about today's meal, these days, the canteen has received a lot less ingredients than before, and the most important thing is that the meat has become less.

The big guy is here to help, and he gets a salary less than the workshop worker, and the reason why he can continue to do it is not that he can make oil and water here?

But now, there is so much less oil and water, and the kitchen has some opinions.

Silly Zhu naturally knows what's going on, in the past, this rolling mill had the best cooking skills, but now, there is one more person in the ring, and he has lost his previous heart.

"Damn..."

Silly Zhu didn't say who it was, after all, there were too many people involved.

wanted to go out to find Xu Damao's trouble, but in a blink of an eye, he thought of the old lady's instructions, and the stupid pillar suppressed his psychological anger again.

"Let you be proud first, and after this while, the master will clean you up."

Liu Lan originally thought that Silly Zhu would go to Xu Damao for trouble when he heard this, but he didn't expect to endure it.

I can't help but look at the stupid pillar curiously, it seems that this stupid pillar is a little different.

In the afternoon, Yang Xiaotao continued to work in the office, the design and construction of the steam engine has been recognized, and what Yang Xiaotao has to do now is to understand the principle and transform the steam engine.

The pencil kept drawing on the drawings, and the parameters were constantly calculated, and the busy and serious appearance made Lou Xiao'e on the side look at it from time to time, and then carefully avoided her gaze.

It wasn't until Lou Xiao'e told him that he was off work that Yang Xiaotao raised his head, moved his neck, and rattled loudly.

"You go first, I'll be busy."

Yang Xiaotao picked up the enamel jar, the water in it was still warm, and it should have been Lou Xiao'e.

"Okay." Lou Xiao'e responded, and then said, "You go back early, don't be tired." ”

Yang Xiaotao waved his hand disapprerovingly, and Lou Xiao'e couldn't say more, the relationship between the two of them was not yet that close.

When Yang Xiaotao left the office, it was already dark, and when he walked out of the office building, Yang Xiaotao found his bicycle and walked towards the courtyard.

Back in the courtyard, Yang Xiaotao made some food by himself and looked through the books on the desk.

Now reading books can not only earn credits, but also learn the structure of the steam engine, killing two birds with one stone, Yang Xiaotao reads very seriously.

……

After returning to Sijiu City, Team Leader Yu was not idle.

Come here today, go there tomorrow, time is pressing, and the top is still urgent, he has to bow to everything.

No, as soon as there was a little information, I came to the section chief's office.

"Lao Yu, did you ask it?"

Team Leader Yu nodded, picked up the jar and took a sip of water, and pushed his glasses, "Speak." ”

"But it's not a woman, it's a man?"

The section chief was a little surprised when he heard this, but he didn't expect that Ding Junhong, who seemed to be determined to die, was not as good as the female Li Man.

"They are the action group, under the command of the butterfly. This time it was also sudden, and after getting the target to leave the Forty-Nine City, I started to design..."

Team Leader Yu told the other party about the situation, from their identities to the hidden places, how to contact, and how to connect.

"What do you want to do next?"

The section chief asked Team Leader Yu to deal with these rats, and Team Leader Yu had more experience.

"Section Chief, I want to follow the vine..."

"I agree in principle, but the protection of the Forty-Six cannot be relaxed."

"I know, I'll arrange this."

"Hmm!"

……

In the following days, Yang Xiaotao has been focusing on the design of drawings, getting up early and going to bed late, running at both ends of the rolling mill and the courtyard, not only reading the two books, but also obtaining more than 300 credits, even the design and construction of the steam engine also has an eyebrow.

On the side of the rolling mill, after Liu Huaimin came back, he heard Yang Youning talk about it, and the two did not urge Yang Xiaotao, but just waited for the progress of the matter.

It's March.

On Friday, Yang Xiaotao said a word to Xu Yuanshan in the afternoon and left work early.

Riding back to Yangjiazhuang, ready to pick up Ran Qiuye, but he didn't want to meet an acquaintance as soon as he entered the village.

"Director Gao!"

This person is Gao Yufeng of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, who is leading a group of people in the village to survey the terrain at the moment.

Although I have seen it for a long time, but now that spring is beginning and the land is thawing, the people of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences are very concerned about this matter.

"I heard you're on a business trip?"

"Well, I came back last Saturday."

Yang Xiaotao politely took out a cigarette, and Gao Yufeng nodded, "In the future, this time will be busy here, so it's better for you to go out less." ”

Yang Xiaotao understands the situation, and the matter of this farm must also be treated with caution.

Now Yangjiazhuang can have such conditions, naturally because of Yangcun No. 1.

If it is not possible to achieve results this time, it is difficult to say whether the farm will continue to exist.

Yang Xiaotao knows this matter, the master knows it, and Gao Yufeng knows it.

And Gao Yufeng looked further, although the relationship with the hairy bear is a little tense now, but it is not that he does not communicate.

There is news from above, if this Yangcun No. 1 works, it will become an important export resource, not only in exchange for foreign exchange, but also in exchange for machinery and equipment and other materials.

At present, this is also a rare export resource.

The two talked for a while, and walked to a pressurized water well, where a few people were gathered at this moment, and wooden shelves were being set up one by one.

Gao Yufeng stepped forward and looked at the pressurized water well, looking happy, "This pressurized water well is very good, our village has installed pressurized water wells, and when spring ploughing, it will be more convenient to use water." ”

Yang Xiaotao nodded, and when he came back, he saw that many pressurized water wells had been erected in the surrounding villages.

"If it had been earlier, we would have dug two more wells, and that one would have been planted."

Gao Yufeng pointed to the land on the north side of the village, where there was a high slope on which it was not easy to dig a well.

Yang Xiaotao thought about whether to tell him about the drilling machine, if he had a drilling machine, he would be able to drill a well in less than two days.

When the time comes, with the pressurized water well, the planting amount of this piece of land will be doubled.

However, Yang Xiaotao thought about it for a while, but still didn't tell Gao Yufeng.

After all, the steam engine has not been solved yet, and now saying it is equivalent to painting a pie, and if it fails, it will be a slap in the face.

Yang Xiaotao didn't say much, after eating in the evening, he went to the village with Gao Yufeng the next day to check the terrain, organize the farm tools, and prepare to dry.

Seeing that after entering March, the weather in Sijiu City has also become cold in the morning and evening, and it is panicked hot at noon.

The land softened, and the surrounding villages began to prepare for farming, and the oxen and donkeys were pulled out and began to plough the ground.

There are even winter wheat growers who are already thinking about how to water the wheat.

It's been the New Year, and it's not raining yet.

Quadrangle.

As the sun shines into the courtyard, the sleeping people wake up and start their day's work.

Workers who don't go to work can't be idle, helping to clean up their homes.

Silly Zhu got up early in the morning to fetch water and wash his face, and only fell asleep in the middle of the night last night, but the excitement on his face was still not gone.

Yesterday, I finally received the news from the third aunt, and today there is a girl who agrees to see her, and it depends on today's success.

After eating, Silly Zhu took out a gray sweater from the cabinet, and put it on his body regardless of whether it was cold outside or not, wearing a white shirt inside, his hair was washed, his nails were cut, and the beard that he didn't have much on his face was also repaired.

In fact, the stupid pillar wanted to grow a beard, at least as a sign to prove the man, so that the doubts in the courtyard were self-defeating.

But in order to look young, the stupid pillar still shaved without hesitation.

As for whether a man is a man or not, as long as he is married, his daughter-in-law will naturally know.

The psychology is happy, and everyone is smiling.

Qin Huairu got up as usual to clean up Jia Dongxu, opened the door at home to ventilate, and saved the moths again.

When I went out, I saw Silly Zhu walking happily to the backyard, and he almost wrote the word good on his face, for fear that others would not know.

"Pillar, go to the old lady so early."

Qin Huairu said hello.

Silly Zhu is a person who is in good spirits on happy occasions, seeing that it is Qin Huairu, he originally wanted to share this good thing, but these days he has to listen to the old lady, and deliberately keeps a distance from Qin Huairu, in order to be able to find a daughter-in-law.

Now that he is about to see the object, Silly Zhu doesn't want to make any extraneous branches, so he took a look at Qin Huairu and held back the secret of his psychology, grinning, "Ah, this old lady goes out for a walk today, and it is easy to get sick if she stays at home all the time." ”

With that, Silly Zhu walked to the backyard.

When Qin Huairu saw the appearance of Silly Zhu, she completely lost her previous diligence, and there was no desire to look at her in her eyes.

I wanted to stop talking, so I could only fiddle with my clothes with a heavy heart.
