The leader on the side looked at Yang Xiaotao and took the opportunity to interject.

"Since the steam engine can have such a large horsepower, if it is installed on a tractor, it should not be a problem."

Yang Xiaotao hadn't realized anything yet, but Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin had already clenched their fists.

It was Mrs. Yang on the side who watched several leaders talk about things all the time, and he understood that he was talking about Yang Xiaotao.

It's just that this matter itself is not bad for Yang Xiaotao, and he is not ready to say anything.

Gao Yufeng and Li Zhixing also heard the meaning of the words, and their eyes widened, staring at Yang Xiaotao to see what he said.

"Tractors?"

Yang Xiaotao just thought for a moment, the kind of walk-behind tractor in the later family, it seems that the front engine is smaller than this steam engine, of course, at that time, the single-cylinder diesel engine was used, but the horsepower was only about ten, and some were even less than ten.

Although the maximum horsepower of this steam engine has reached thirty, it does not mean that it can work at thirty horsepower all the time, according to Yang Xiaotao's calculations, if you want to get continuous and stable power, half of the power is the most suitable.

In other words, the most suitable power is fifteen to twenty horsepower.

However, fifteen horsepower is placed on the tractor body, because it is large, the weight is heavy, and the heat loss must be removed, as well as the problem of conversion rate.

Of course, as a small household walk-behind tractor, seven or eight horsepower is enough, and a twelve-horsepower tractor is already a medium and large tractor, which has been out of the category of walk-behind.

Thinking of this, Yang Xiaotao said confidently, "Leader, this is no problem at all." ”

"According to my calculations, with this steam engine as the power and the corresponding equipment,"

In just one sentence, Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning glanced at each other, both showing a look of surprise.

In their opinion, since Yang Xiaotao can make the ticket, it will definitely be done.

Why?

Just because he was the youngest ninth-level engineer in the rolling mill, he built the steam engine and repaired the rolling mill

This ability is already an authority in the rolling mill, and he says yes, then he does.

"Comrade Yang Xiaotao."

Xia Lao interrupted Yang Xiaotao's explanation, with a solemn expression on his face.

Yang Xiaotao looked over, and the people around him also pricked up their ears to listen.

"Comrade Yang Xiaotao, I have a task to be handed over to you."

"Chief, please instruct."

In just one second, Yang Xiaotao reacted and quickly stood up.

The people around him also stood up.

Xia Lao got up with a serious face.

"This task is not only for you, but also for the rolling mill, it is a task that must be completed."

Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin walked up to Yang Xiaotao.

Behind them, Gao Yufeng and Li Zhixing showed envy, they knew that this time the rolling mill was going to have a big project.

"In view of the current form, there is a need to expand planting and concentrate planting all over the country, so the demand for machinery is increasing."

"The task I gave you is to design and build a tractor using the steam engine in front of you."

"It's a daunting, but honorable task, and you can't take it?"

Everyone's eyes were on Yang Xiaotao.

Although he had been prepared for a long time and had thought about the purpose of this steam engine, he had never thought about taking over the task from this big man.

At this point, he couldn't think much about it.

If you have to do it sooner or later, why wait until the storm has passed?

For more than ten years, let it be wasted?

Thinking of this, Yang Xiaotao's spine straightened, and he looked at Xia Lao and nodded seriously, "Report to the chief, Yang Xiaotao accepts the task." ”

"Guaranteed to get the job done."

Yang Youning and Xu Yuanshan also shouted loudly.

"Good. I await your good news. ”

While a few people were talking, the drilling machine had stopped working, and Zhou Kui and Yang Shizheng were beckoning someone to put the cement pipe down.

There are enough cement pipes, and the efficiency of drilling wells is also accelerating.

Xia Lao had one less thing on his mind, so he was naturally much more relaxed.

Tao Lao also knew that if this tractor came out, it would definitely play a huge role in agricultural production.

Of course, this kind of drilling machine also needs to produce more, and it can produce water in one day, which has a wide range of uses in the north.

Several people gathered in front of the well, and on the raised cement pipe, a pressurized water well was being quickly assembled.

Tao Lao and the others watched carefully, and after waiting for about ten minutes, the pressurized water well was carried up to the wellhead.

Yang Dazhuang found a wooden barrel, sent the water into the wellbore, and then quickly pressed the wooden handle under the attention of everyone, and after a while, a column of water flowed out, and then it became larger and clearer.

Yang Xiaotao stood aside with a camera, Tao Lao stepped forward and personally pressed the water, and the water of Baihuahua spurted out of the pressurized water well, flowed on the ground, and soon flowed down the terrain.

"With this thing, even a child can make water."

"The farmland under this hillside, with water irrigation, is a bumper harvest year this year."

"Happy, happy."

Tao Lao was full of interest, and Xia Lao was also infected, so he came over and pressed it twice.

"This thing is convenient, and when I go back, I will get one for the family compound."

On the side, Yang Youning remembered in his mind and did it when he went back.

Yang Xiaotao put down the camera, walked up to Mrs. Yang, and said something about eating.

Mrs. Yang nodded, then stepped forward and beckoned everyone back to the village for dinner.

After another busy day, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon when I returned to the village.

In the team headquarters, Ran Qiuye and the others have already eaten it, and now they are waiting for the noodles to be put in the pot.

By the time Mrs. Yang and the others returned to the brigade headquarters, the noodles in the pot had already been cooked.

Yang Xiaotao led the leaders back home, and the rest of the driver's secretaries were in the team headquarters.

Everyone ate the same, a plate of salted duck eggs cut into sixths, two plates of pickled radish, spicy cabbage, and a dish of fried pork rind.

Although they are all ordinary meals, there are no big fish and meat, everyone can see that Xia Lao and the two are very satisfied with what they eat.

In particular, I ate a big bowl of noodles and even drank the soup.

In the eyes of the guards, this is rare.

After eating a meal, Xia Lao Tao didn't stop much, just encouraged everyone to continue to work hard, and got in the car and left.

Before leaving, he also asked the secretary to put down a stack of food stamps and industrial vouchers.

Pay for food, no matter who you are.

Mrs. Yang and they were not hypocritical, and accepted it happily.

Then Li Zhixing, Liu Huaimin and others left one after another, and Gao Yufeng was left in the village.

Zhou Kui and Wang Jun will live for a while, and according to the plan, they will dig wells in several surrounding villages.

Of course, there is a subsidy for drilling wells, and I haven't said how much, but from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, it shouldn't be too little.

Yang Xiaotao accepted the task, so he had to worry about the tractor.

But considering that the next spring ploughing is just as important, there is no room for error.

After Yang Youning discussed with Liu Huaimin, Yang Xiaotao could stay in Yangjiazhuang to work.

Anyway, the tractor can be designed now, and there is no one else in the rolling mill except Yang Xiaotao.

It's the same everywhere he goes.

However, I have to go back to the rolling mill once a week to report on the progress.

Yang Xiaotao readily agreed that he could also study well in this village.

Moreover, speaking of tractors, what Yang Xiaotao wanted to design was the kind that was in the eighties and nineties in the later generations.

Thanks to the blessing of his old father in his previous life, he fiddled with the tractor behind him, and he could repair it even if he had a small problem, but now that the steam engine has been made, I don't believe that he can't fix the tractor.

The tractor in my memory, the engine is 180, which is about eight horsepower according to calculations.

Two armrests with a counterweight iron in the middle to balance the front of the bike.

The upper left side of the handlebar is the clutch, the upper right hand is the throttle, and the two lower sides are to control the left and right corners.

Simple and convenient.

In the middle is the gear, in front is the nose, and below are two wheels, propping up the shelf.

It can be attached to the bucket, plows, rake teeth and other agricultural tools, which is very useful.

It's not too much to say about the iron bull.

Such a tractor, with a pocket in the back, was a great thing when he was a child.

When rushing to the market, any tractor will be stuffed with people.

Yang Xiaotao understands that he can't do so many functions in the future now, but it is enough to learn seven, seven, eight, eight, and eight.

What's more, in the past few days, Liu Huaimin will collect the situation of domestic tractors at this stage, from data, structural diagrams, to actual operations, existing problems, Yang Xiaotao will learn from them, and it will also help him.

With a goal, there is a direction.

The next step is to step all the way through.

Quadrangle

Jia Dongxu's funeral was over, the Jia family finally got rid of the burden, and the house finally dispersed the smell after a day of ventilation.

Qin Huairu washed and rubbed in the yard, and was busy for most of the day, until he returned home in the evening to boil a pot of porridge.

Jia Zhang's led the stick terrier to sit together, Xiaodang held a bowl, and after Qin Huairu divided the porridge, a few people got up to eat.

After the morning's incident, Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu did not speak.

The two of them bowed their heads to eat, and the stick terrier quickly ran out, but their stomachs were still very hungry.

Half of the size eats the poor man, and it is when he can eat, and he eats more without oil and water.

looked at Qin Huairu with a blank eye, "Mom, I haven't eaten enough!" ”

Qin Huairu didn't care about him, there weren't many in total, and the four of them were gone.

Seeing that Qin Huairu didn't speak, the stick terrier looked at Jia Zhang's.

"Grandma, you give me a little!"

Jia Zhangshi raised his head, looked at Qin Huairu, looked at the stick terrier, looked down at the porridge in the bowl, turned back to Xiaodang and said, "Why do you drink so much when you lose money?" ”

"I didn't see that your brother wasn't full. Just drink half of it. ”

Xiaodang's face is full of grievances, and she is also hungry!

When the stick terrier heard grandma's words, he looked at Xiaodang and suddenly shook his head, "I don't want my sister!" ”

"Dad said, when you are an older brother, you have to protect your sister!"

"Milk, you are not allowed to say that you are a loser!"

Jia Zhang's cold, "The little rabbit cub dares to teach me a lesson, I hurt you in vain!" ”

As he spoke, he looked at Qin Huairu again, "The child can eat, so you can't make more?" ”

"Do more? Look at how many are left in the tank? ”

Jia Zhang was choked, lowered his head and continued to drink porridge.

Qin Huairu was angry in her heart, the gift money collected for the funeral this time was all in the hands of Jia Zhang's family, and there were more than ten yuan in the calculation, if this was given to her, the living standard of the family would be immediately improved.

Of course, Qin Huairu also has money in his hands.

It's just that she doesn't want to be exposed.

The stick terrier looked at Jia Zhang's with blank eyes, then looked at Qin Huairu, and finally picked up the bowl and added it again.

In the courtyard, a smell of fragrance hits, and the stick terrier looks out the window.

"Mom, Silly Zhu is ready to eat again."

Without looking back, he said loudly.

The meaning is obvious, the stupid pillar has done it, you hurry up and ask for it.

Jia Zhang snorted coldly and did not speak.

In my heart, I still want Qin Huairu to go.

But Qin Huairu is not a fool, thankless, she just wants to make Jia Zhang's family suffer.

Let the stick terrier understand that she is in charge of this family, and don't ask Jia Zhang's about everything.

Qin Huairu didn't move, and Jia Zhang's couldn't help it.

Silly Zhu knocked on the edge of the pot with a spoon, and his eyes looked out from time to time.

For a while, I didn't see Qin Huairu, and I was stunned.

"It seems that it will not come."

"Hmph, it's not uncommon."

Then he lifted the lid of the pot, put the braised pork on a plate, and walked to the backyard.

Yi Zhonghai sat at home, and Jia Zhang's cold eyes made him understand that the matter between him and Qin Huairu was still a pious old woman.

If the plan is to go well, this old pious woman has to settle down.

"In the future, the Jia family will live behind closed doors, let's live our own lives first."

Aunt Yi listened to it, she didn't say that a few days ago.

It's just that Yi Zhonghai is in charge of this family, and she listens to it.
